Popis: Freshly mixed polymerized Hydron root canal filling material, fully set AH26 and Teflon were implanted in the quadriceps muscle of guinea pigs and assessed histologically at 2 days, 1, 2, 3, 12 and 26 weeks after implantation. All materials were characterized by peri-implant fibrous connective tissue capsule formation. Von Kossa-positive calcific material was observed at the implant-tissue interface of Hydron implants. The amount of apparently calcified material increased with time. Inflammation was not a prominent tissue response for any of the test materials, nor was a foreign body giant cell response.
