Pulpal reaction to tested medicaments during various time intervals(1,7,14,28,56 days) were evaluated histlogically under light microscope.
In Formocroesol-ZOE group, classical 3 different histological zones were observed with apical diffusion of fixation zone, whereas none-to slight diffusion could be found. Only Glutaral-dehyde-ZOE group showed active fibrotic replacement. Generalized severe inflammation and internal resorption were observed in Glutaraldehyde-Ca(OH)₂ group and ZOE control group.
5 minute glutaraldehyde (2%) pulpotomy using ZOE as base material showed the best histological picture among all the tested materials.
