The endodontic microbiota is mainly anaerobic and proteolitic, due to this site conditions and disposable nutrients. Factors of adherence can promote the microbial installation at the root canal walls, forming biofilms, and also proliferation inside the dentinal tubules. The biofilm microorganisms change genetic material, increasing their resistance. Because of this, it is almost impossib…
Bacteria are the main etiologic agents of pulp and periradicular pathologies, playing an important role in the induction and maintenance of inflammatory processes of the pulp and periapex. Thus, the failure of endodontic treatment may be related to the perpetuation of microorganisms in recessed areas or in periapical tissues. The surgery endodontic treatment is indicated in cases in which…
The objective of this work will be to evaluate the biovolume and cell viability of biofilms of three strains of Enterococcus faecalis, one ATCC 29212, one clinical isolate of primary endodontic lesion and one clinical isolate from secondary lesion, after exposition to calcium hydroxide paste with viscous vehicle. Dentin blocks, derived from bovine teeth, will be made by means of trephine …
Biomechanical preparation followed by irrigation in endodontic treatment of infected root canals has been shown effective promoting significant reduction of microorganisms in the canals. However, some micro-organisms still survive. The bacteria associated with primaries endodontic infections are predominantly anaerobic Gram-negat…
Root canals are preferably harbored by anaerobic microorganisms, because of the conditions of the niche and the available nutrients, as most of these microorganisms have a proteolitic metabolism. Bacterial adherence factors provide their installation in the root canal walls, forming biofilms, and they can proliferate inside the dentinal tubules. The microorganisms organized in biofilms ex…
