20% Citric Acid its effectiveness as a chelator in endodontic treatment of temporary teeth
Keywords:
endodontic, dentistry, temporary teethAbstract
In endodontics, the use of a final irrigant that has properties such as antimicrobial effect, tissue dissolution and biocompatibility is essential, since toxins are the main cause of the development and persistence of a pulp and periapical lesion. Objective: To evaluate the antimicrobial capacity of 20% citric acid as a chelating solution used during the treatment of pulpectomies in temporary dental organs. Materials and methods: The study population included 30 patients from the Pediatric Dentistry Clinical of the Facultad de Estomatologia of the Universidad Autonoma de San Luis Potosí (UASLP). The participants had an age range between 3 to 9 years of age and in terms of gender 15 male and 15 female, after information consent of the minors and signature of the informed consent of the parents. Results: Citric acid at 20% showed a reduction of microorganisms from 2.5 to 6.0 CFU (Colony Forming Units) while oxygenated water, although presenting a reduction for colony forming units, was only 1 to 2 UFC. Conclusion: Citric acid is a good irrigant, but it should continue studies.
