Abstract

The purpose of this experimental study was to histologically compare the dentinary bridge formed on the pulp remaining tissue by calcium hydroxide and aggregate mineral trioxide, used in the pulpotomy technique in dog teeth.
The treatments were performed on six vital dental pieces, three of the lower right hemiarchy in similar pieces, in which chemically pure calcium hydroxide was used.
After the pulpotomy, each of the dental pieces was restored with silver amalgam, after forty days the research subject was sacrificed, then the pieces were separated from the mandibular bone and processed for their respective histological evaluation.
Histological analysis demonstrated the formation of the destination bridge by using both materials.
The dentinal bridge formed by the Mineral Trioxide Aggregate by its acronym in English (MTA) was more compact and less permeable than that formed by Calcium Hydroxide, favoring pulp repair, isolating it better from the external oral environment, reducing micro filtration of fluids and microorganisms that can cause pulp compromise.
