Background: ‘Regenerative endodontics’ using host-derived scaffolds and biomaterials (MTA) is popular in the management of teeth with open apex. Alkaline pH and bioactivity contribute to tissue healing and remineralization. We assessed the influence of PRF and Blood Clot on the pH and Ca+ ion release from MTA. Methods: A total of 15 single-rooted human extracted teeth were sectioned at the level of the cementoenamel junction. Based on the type of scaffolds used, samples were divided into three groups. Group 1 (MTA+ PRF), Group 2 (MTA + Blood Clot), Group 3 (control MTA). The prepared specimens were transferred to a fresh falcon tube containing 10mL of distilled water and the collected solutions were analysed for pH and Ca+ ion release at 3h, seventh day and 14th day. Results: It was observed that the mean pH and Ca+ ion release were significantly lower in the experimental groups as compared to the control group. Though there was an increase in the pH recorded in Group 1 and 2 at all time periods, the difference was not significant. Ca+ ion release peaked at Day 7 (Group3 > Group2 > Group1) and reduced significantly on the 14th day for all groups. Conclusions: Within the limitations of the study, it can be concluded that PRF and blood clot influence the pH and Ca+ ion release from MTA. |
