Introduction. Apitherapy is the medicinal and therapeutic use of all the products of the hive, honey, pollen, propolis, royal jelly, wax and bee venom. The treatments cover several medical and dental areas. In the medical area it acts on the immune, circulatory, nervous, digestive and osteoarticular systems as well as, it intervenes in eye and skin treatments; meanwhile, in dentistry it participates in the surgical, endodontic, periodontal and restorative areas, providing important benefits such as bactericidal, bacteriostatic, healing, biostimulant, antioxidant, analgesic, inmunostimulating, anti-inflammatory and coagulant. Due to these characteristics, apitherapy is represented within the area of the endodontics by the use of propolis, which is a resinous, balsamic substance, and for these properties mentioned, it becomes a viable medicinal alternative for performing pulpotomies, competing with the most used, especially with formocresol. Objective. To demonstrate the effectiveness of propolis tincture applied to primary molars with indication for pulpotomy, performing a symptomatological and radiographic control at 7 and 15 days after treatment. Material and methods. The methodology used in terms of level was a descriptive investigation, of an experimental design, since a group of patients with specific characteristics to the effects of propolis was subjected to know their direct response and their evolution. Conclusions. It is shown that the 10% propolis tincture was an effective medicine for performing pulpotomies because it acts as an anti-inflammatory, resulting in a total decrease in the inflammation of the soft tissues, and a significant decrease in the inflammation presented in the periodontal ligament.

Formocresol is one of the most widely used drugs for the treatment of pulpotomy for the reason in Pediatric Dentistry; due to its toxic, genotoxic and mutagenic effects, it is constantly searching for alternatives with other substances or drugs. This is a basic experimental study in twenty samples collected from dental organs of patients with ages ranging from three to nine years of the Pediatric Dentistry Clinic of the Faculty of Stomatology of the UASLP met the inclusion criteria for the treatment of pulpotomies. The treatment was performed according to those established by AAPD with the exception that hydroalcoholic extract 70:30 of oregano was used and its ability to eliminate microorganisms was measured in the laboratory.

Background: New methods and medicaments in primary teeth pulp therapy have been published earlier this century, within which is Biodentine®. The material is a new calcium silicate cement with bioactivity and biocompatibility properties in direct contact with the pulp tissue that induces the development of reparative dentin and achieves maintaining the vitality and function of the tissue. Objective: To present a case of the use of Biodentine® after pulpotomy in an deciduous molar that was restored with stainless steel crown. Results: The follow-up of 6, 12 and 18 months showed a clinical and radiographic success of the procedure. Conclusion: Biodentine® material could be considered as an effective and promising material in treatment of pulpotomy in primary dentition. However, it is necessary to carry out long-term studies for this medicament becomes a material in clinical practice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Aim: compare the effectiveness of the electrofulguration technique, and evaluate if constitutes an alternative to formocresol in vital pulp therapy in primary dentition. Methodology: fifty primary molars in 29 children, between 4-9 years old were treated by two different techniques of pulpotomy and evaluated clinical and radiological during twelve months. After coronal pulp removal and homeostasis, remaining pulp tissue was treated by electrofulguration in the experimental group. In the control group full strength FC was placed with a cotton pellet over the pulp tissue for 5 minutes. All the teeth were covered with ZOE restored with SSC and evaluated clinical and radiographic at 3, 6 and 12 months. Results: after 12 months, the experimental group showed success rate of 100% and 95,8% clinically and radiological respectively; and the control group 95,7% and 91,3% in the same order . Conclusions: no statistical significant difference between both groups observed at the end of 12 months, when utilizing Fisher's exact Test. These results suggested that electrofulguration could be recommended as an alternative to the use of formocresol in vital pulp therapy for primary molars. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective. To evaluate histopathological changes produced by formocresol compared with mineral trioxide aggregate in pulpotomy. Material and method. Experimental, comparative, prospective, longitudinal study. Four (4) crossbred Canis Familiaris, one year old were used. The premolars of each arch were treated with the classical technique of pulpotomy. The pulp stumps were covered with formocresol on the left hemi arch top and bottom and with MTA paste on the right hemi arch. After 48 hours was taken the first sample; 40 days after, the second sample. Results. The changes generated in the pulp, inflammation levels and degrees of dentin regeneration were evaluated. After analyzing the data using student t test, significant differences were found in the use of formocresol or mineral trioxide aggregate in pulpotomized teeth of Canis Familiaris. Conclusions. MTA exhibited better results in the changes generated in the pulp, inflammation levels and degrees of dentin regeneration. (Kiru 2011, 8: 68-73). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: pulpotomy in primary teeth is one of the most controversial treatments in pedodontics due to the fact that the biocompatibility of the material used in contact with the pulp tissue can make the difference between success and failure. Formocresol is the most used medication in a pulpotomy; however due to the concern about the toxicity and carcinogenicity of the formocresol, other alternatives such as the mineral trioxide aggregate have been proposed. Objective: to evaluate clinical and radiographic pulpotomy success with MTA in 58 primary molars. Material and methods: sampling consisted of 37 patients, ranging from 4 to 8 years old; 58 molars were obtained. Inclusion criteria consisted of dental organs affected by cameral pulp, with 2/3 of root length and that they could be restored with stainless steel crowns. Once the procedure was done, the patients were evaluated during 48 months. The statistical analysis was done with PASW Statistic version 18.0. Results: clinical and radiographic success was 96.4%. Pulpar response of the dental organs to which the pulpotomy with the mineral trioxide aggregate was performed, was favorable during the evaluated periods. Conclusion: MTA is an alternative part of the pulpotomy of primary molars; after exfoliation of some of thepulpotomized teeth, none of the observed successors presented structure alteration.

The aim of study was comparative the succefull clinic and radiographic of two materials used for pulpotomy for primary teeth of dog. The study was comparative to one month to utility one tissues regenerate (EMDOGAIN) and one Hemostatic (FERRIC SULFATE) in pulpotomy in primary molars of dog, one third dog was used how control. The pulpotomy with tissues regenerate show best results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
