Tricalcium Silicate Capping Materials Modulate Pulp Healing and Inflammatory Activity In Vitro.
Journal of Endodontics, 2018Co-Authors: Thomas Giraud, Patrick Laurent, Charlotte Jeanneau, Madison Bergmann, Imad AboutAbstract:Abstract Introduction On stimulation by lipoteichoic acid or by a physical injury, fibroblasts have been shown to play a major role in the initiation of the pulp inflammatory reaction and healing through secretion of complement proteins and growth factors. The application of direct pulp-capping materials on these cells may interfere with the inflammatory and the healing processes within the pulp's inextensible environment. This work was designed to study in vitro the effects of silicate-based materials on pulp fibroblast modulation of the initial steps of pulp inflammation and healing. Methods The effects of Biodentine, TheraCal, and Xeno III eluates were studied on lipoteichoic acid–stimulated and physically injured fibroblasts. Cytokine secretion (interleukin 6, vascular endothelial growth factor, fibroblast growth factor-2, and transforming growth factor-β1) was quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Inflammatory THP-1 adhesion to endothelial cells and their migration and activation were studied in vitro. Human pulp fibroblast proliferation was investigated with the MTT test, and their migration to the injury site was studied with the scratch healing assay. Results Interleukin 6 and vascular endothelial growth factor secretion increased with all materials but to a lesser extent with Biodentine. Fibroblast growth factor-2 and transforming growth factor-β1 secretion was significantly higher with Biodentine than with all other materials. THP-1 cell adhesion to endothelial cells and their activation were reduced by Biodentine and TheraCal. However, their migration decreased only with Biodentine. Fibroblast proliferation significantly increased with Biodentine but significantly decreased with Xeno III after day 6. Finally, only Biodentine induced fibroblast migration to the injury site in the scratch assay. Conclusions These results confirm that pulp-capping materials affect the early steps of pulp inflammation and healing. They show that Biodentine had the highest pulp healing and anti-inflammatory potential when compared with the resin-containing materials. This highlights the interest of the material choice for direct pulp-capping.

light cured tricalcium silicate toxicity to the dental pulp
Journal of Endodontics, 2017Co-Authors: Charlotte Jeanneau, Patrick Laurent, Thomas Giraud, Charlotte Rombouts, Imad AboutAbstract:Abstract Introduction Numerous studies reported dentin bridge formation after pulp capping with tricalcium silicates. By contrast, pulp capping with resins leads to pulp toxicity and inflammation. Hybrid materials made up of tricalcium silicates and resins have also been developed to be used in direct pulp capping. This work was designed to study the consequences of adding resins to tricalcium silicates by investigating TheraCal (BISCO, Lancon De Provence, France) and Biodentine (Septodont, Saint Maur des Fosses, France) interactions with the dental pulp. Methods Media conditioned with the biomaterials were used to analyze pulp fibroblast proliferation using the MTT (3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) test and proinflammatory cytokine interleukin 8 (IL-8) secretion using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The effects of conditioned media on dentin sialoprotein (DSP) and nestin expression by dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) were investigated by immunofluorescence. The materials' interactions with the vital pulp were investigated using the entire tooth culture model. Results TheraCal-conditioned media significantly decreased pulp fibroblast proliferation, whereas no effect was observed with Biodentine. When DPSCs were cultured with Biodentine-conditioned media, immunofluorescence showed an increased expression of DSP and nestin. This expression was lower with TheraCal, which significantly induced proinflammatory IL-8 release both in cultured fibroblasts and entire tooth cultures. This IL-8 secretion increase was not observed with Biodentine. Entire tooth culture histology showed a higher mineralization with Biodentine, whereas significant tissue disorganization was observed with TheraCal. Conclusions Within the limits of these preclinical results, resin-containing TheraCal cannot be recommended for direct pulp capping.

Hydration of Biodentine, theracal LC, and a prototype tricalcium silicate-based dentin replacement material after pulp capping in entire tooth cultures
2014Co-Authors: Josette Camilleri, Patrick Laurent, Imad AboutAbstract:Introduction The calcium-releasing ability of pulp-capping materials induces pulp tissue regeneration. Tricalcium silicate-based materials produce calcium hydroxide as a by-product of hydration. Assessment of hydration and calcium ion leaching is usually performed on samples that have been aged in physiological solution for a predetermined period of time. The hydration and activity of the materials in vivo may not be similar to those displayed in vitro because of insufficient fluid available in contact with dentin. The aim of this research was the assessment of hydration of Biodentine, Theracal LC, and a prototype radiopacified tricalcium silicate-based material after pulp capping and to compare it with direct hydration in an aqueous solution. Methods The extent of hydration of Biodentine, Theracal LC, and a prototype radiopacified tricalcium silicate-based material with a similar composition to Biodentine but not incorporating the additives was assessed by scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy of polished specimens after being allowed to hydrate in Hank's balanced salt solution for 14 days. The extent of hydration was compared with material hydration when used as direct pulp capping materials by using a tooth culture model. Material activity was also assessed by x-ray diffraction analysis to investigate the deposition of calcium hydroxide by the materials, and calcium ion leaching in Hank's balanced salt solution was assessed by ion chromatography. Results Biodentine and the prototype tricalcium silicate cement hydrated and reaction by-products were deposited in the cement matrix both after pulp capping and when incubated in an aqueous solution. Calcium hydroxide was formed, and calcium ions were leached in solution. Theracal LC hydration was incomplete because of the limited moisture diffusion within the material. Thus, no calcium hydroxide was produced, and a lower calcium ion leaching was recorded. Conclusions Theracal LC had a heterogeneous structure with large unhydrated particles because not enough moisture was present to allow hydration to proceed. Biodentine composition was shown to be optimized, and the environmental conditions did not affect material microstructure. Biodentine exhibited formation of calcium hydroxide and calcium ion leaching, which are beneficial to the dental pulp.

Biodentine tm induces tgf β1 release from human pulp cells and early dental pulp mineralization
International Endodontic Journal, 2012Co-Authors: P Laurent, Jean Camps, Imad AboutAbstract:Laurent P, Camps J, About I. Biodentine™ induces TGF-β1 release from human pulp cells and early dental pulp mineralization. International Endodontic Journal, 45, 439–448, 2012. Abstract Aim To assess the ability of a recently developed tricalcium silicate-based cement (Biodentine™) to induce reparative dentine synthesis and to investigate its capacity to modulate pulp cells TGF-β1 secretion. Methodology Biodentine™ was directly applied onto the dental pulp in an entire human tooth culture model. After various culture periods, the interaction of the material with dental pulp tissue was analysed on tissue sections. The effect of increasing surface area of this material on TGF-β1 secretion was investigated on pulp cell cultures and compared with that of MTA, calcium hydroxide and Xeno®III adhesive resin. After performing artificial injuries on pulp cell cultures, the materials eluates were added for 24 h and then TGF-β1 secretion was quantified by ELISA. Controls were performed by incubating intact cells with the culture medium, while injured cells TGF-β1 level was used as the baseline value. Results Biodentine™ induced mineralized foci formation early after its application. The mineralization appeared under the form of osteodentine and expressed markers of odontoblasts. Biodentine™ significantly increased TGF-β1 secretion from pulp cells (P < 0.03) independently of the contact surface increase. This increase was also observed with calcium hydroxide and MTA, but not with the resinous Xeno®III. The statistical analysis showed statistically significant differences between capping materials and the resinous Xeno®III (P < 0.001). Conclusions When Biodentine™ was applied directly onto the pulp, it induced an early form of reparative dentine synthesis, probably due to a modulation of pulp cell TGF-β1 secretion.

Scanning electron microscope studies showed a high degree of cell proliferation and adhesion on Biodentine disks but moderate rates on MTA Repair HP and NeoMTA Plus disks. Energy-dispersive X-ray pointed to similar weight percentages of C, O, and Ca in all 3 materials, whereas other elements such as Al, Si, and S were also found.

cytotoxicity and bioactivity of various pulpotomy materials on stem cells from human exfoliated primary teeth
International Endodontic Journal, 2017Co-Authors: Mar Colladogonzalez, David Garciabernal, R E Onatesanchez, P S Ortolaniseltenerich, T Alvarezmuro, Adrian Lozano, Leopoldo Forner, Carmen Llena, Jose M Moraleda, Francisco Javier RodriguezlozanoAbstract:Aims To investigate the cytotoxicity and bioactivity of several pulpotomy materials: Biodentine (Septodont, Saint-Maur-des-Fosses, France) MTA (Angelus, Londrina, PR, Brazil), Theracal LC (Bisco Inc., Schamburg, IL, USA) and IRM (Dentsply DeTrey GmbH, Konstanz, Germany), after contact with stem cells isolated from human exfoliated primary teeth (SHEDs). Methodology SHEDs were cultured in the presence of the eluates of various pulpotomy materials for 24, 48 and 72 h. Cell viability was determined by mitochondrial dehydrogenase enzymatic (MTT) assay. Apoptosis and changes in cell phenotype were evaluated by flow cytometry. Also, an in vitro scratch wound-healing assay was used to determine their effects on cell migration. To assess cell morphology and attachment to the different pulpotomy materials, SHEDs were directly seeded onto the material surfaces and analysed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Finally, the deposition of a calcified matrix in presence of these materials was verified by Alizarin Red staining. Statistical analysis was performed with analysis of variance and Bonferroni or Tukey post-test (α = 0.05). Results Cell viability in the presence of Biodentine eluates was significantly higher to that obtained using complete medium alone (control; P < 0.01) and was also significantly higher than using MTA Angelus from 48 h of incubation (P < 0.01). However, Theracal LC and IRM were associated with low rates of cell viability (P < 0.001). Similar results were obtained in an apoptosis assay. In addition, SHEDs maintained their mesenchymal phenotype in all conditions although their capacity to migrate was higher in the presence of Biodentine. SEM studies revealed a suitable proliferation rate, cell spreading and attachment, especially when using Biodentine and MTA Angelus discs. Finally, Biodentine eluates significantly induced calcified matrix deposition from 7 days of culture (P < 0.01). Conclusions Biodentine exhibited better cytocompatibility and bioactivity than MTA Angelus, Theracal LC and IRM.

bonding over dentin replacement materials
Journal of Endodontics, 2017Co-Authors: Naghmeh Meraji, Josette CamilleriAbstract:Abstract Introduction Dentin replacement materials are necessary in large cavities to protect the pulp and reduce the bulk of filling material. These materials are layered with a composite resin restorative material. Microleakage caused by poor bonding of composite resin to underlying dentin replacement material will result in pulp damage. The aim of this study was to characterize the interface between dentin replacement materials and composite resin and to measure the shear bond strength after dynamic aging. Methods Biodentine (Septodont, Saint Maur-des-Fosses, France), Theracal LC (Bisco, Schaumburg, IL), and Fuji IX (GC, Tokyo, Japan) were used as dentin replacement materials. They were then overlaid with a total-etch and bonding agent or a self-etch primer and composite resin or a glass ionomer cement. All combinations were thermocycled for 3000 cycles. The interface was characterized using scanning electron microscopy and elemental mapping. Furthermore, the shear bond strength was assessed. Results The Biodentine surface was modified by etching. The Theracal LC and Fuji IX microstructure was unchanged upon the application of acid etch. The Biodentine and glass ionomer interface showed an evident wide open space, and glass particles from the glass ionomer adhered to the Biodentine surface. Elemental migration was shown with aluminum, barium, fluorine, and ytterbium present in Biodentine from the overlying composite resin. Calcium was more stable. The bond strength between Theracal LC and composite using a total-etch technique followed by self-etch primer achieved the best bond strength values. Biodentine exhibited the weakest bond with complete failure of bonding shown after demolding and thermocycling. Conclusions Dynamic aging is necessary to have clinically valid data. Bonding composite resin to water-based dentin replacement materials is still challenging, and further alternatives for restoration of teeth using such materials need to be developed.

porosity and root dentine to material interface assessment of calcium silicate based root end filling materials
Clinical Oral Investigations, 2014Co-Authors: Josette Camilleri, L. Grech, K Galea, D Keir, Maurizio Fenech, L M Formosa, Denis Damidot, Bertram MalliaAbstract:The aim of this study was to evaluate the porosity and assess the root dentine to material interface of four root-end filling materials based on tricalcium silicate cement using two microscopy techniques. The porosity of Bioaggregate, Biodentine, a prototype radiopacified tricalcium silicate cement (TCS-20-Zr) and intermediate restorative material (IRM) was evaluated after immersion for 28 days in Hank's balanced salt solution (HBSS) using mercury intrusion porosimetry. The root dentine to material interface of the cements when used as root-end filling materials in extracted human teeth was assessed after 28 days of dry storage and immersion in HBSS using a confocal microscope together with fluorescent tracers and also a field emission gun scanning electron microscope. Biodentine and IRM exhibited the lowest level or degree of porosity. The confocal microscopy used in conjunction to fluorescent tracers demonstrated that dry storage resulted in gaps at the root dentine to material interface and also cracks in the material with Biodentine being the most affected. Zinc was shown to be present in root dentine adjacent to the IRM restorations. Dry storage of Biodentine resulted in changes in the material microstructure and cracks at the root dentine to Biodentine interface. Furthermore, the gaps resulting from material shrinkage allowed the passage of the fluorescent microspheres thus indicating that these gaps are significant and can potentially allow the passage of micro-organisms.

The hydrated cements were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray energy dispersive analysis (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR).\n\nRESULTS: All the cements tested were alkaline. The tricalcium silicate-based cements leached calcium in solution. Scanning electron microscopy of the prototype-radiopacified tricalcium silicate cement, Biodentine and Bioaggregate displayed hydrating cement grains, surrounded by a matrix composed of calcium silicate hydrate and calcium hydroxide. The presence of calcium hydroxide was evident from the XRD plots. FT-IR indicated the occurrence of a poorly crystalline calcium silicate hydrate. Biodentine displayed the presence of calcium carbonate. Bioaggregate incorporated a phosphate-containing phase. IRM consisted of zinc oxide interspersed in an organic matrix.\n\nCONCLUSIONS: The hydration of prototype-radiopacified tricalcium silicate cement, Biodentine and Bioaggregate resulted in the formation of calcium silicate hydrate and calcium hydroxide, which was leached in solution. The hydrated materials were composed of a cementitous phase that was rich in calcium and silicon and a radiopacifying material. Biodentine included calcium carbonate, and Bioaggregate included silica and calcium phosphate in the powders. IRM was composed of zinc oxide interspersed in a matrix of organic material.
