Endodoncia en Equidos. Estudio Experimental

Endodontics in Horses. An Experimental Study A total of 44 experimental endodontic treatments were performed in incisors of eight horses of different ages. Four different endodontic pastes were used: Cloropercha, AH26 De Trey®, Eugenol‐Endometasone, and Universal N2. Gutapercha points were also included in the last two treatments. Access to the pulpar cavity of incisors was gained through their vestibular and occlusal faces. Holes drilled in vestibular faces were sealed with composite and those drilled in occlusal faces were sealed with Amalgama. Animals were observed during eighteen months at least after endodontics. Radiographic controls were done just after surgery and before slaughtering. Treated incisors and alveoli were studied histopathologically. During the experiment all animals were in good condition. They ate apparently without trouble, and neither clinical nor radiological signs were present. Nuestro trabajo experimental fue realizado en dientes incisivos de ocho caballos de diferentes edades. Se realizaron un total de cuarenta y cuatro endodoncias. Se probaron cuatro pastas diferentes de relleno: Cloropercha AH26, Eugenol‐Endomethasone y N2, estas dos últimas con puntas de Gutapercha. Para llegar a la cavidad pulpar accedimos por la cara vestibular y por la cara oclusal en cada incisivo. Sellamos con Composite la cara vestibular y con Amalgama la cara oclusal. Los animales se observaron un mínimo de dieciocho meses tras las endodoncias. Se realizaron controles radiológicos posteriores a las intervenciones y en el momento del sacrificio. Luego se hizo un estudio histopatológico del diente y del alveolo. Todos los animales presentaron un estado general bueno en el tiempo que duró la experiencia, comieron con toda normalidad sin presentar sintomas clinicos, radiológicos ni histopatológicos. © 1990 Blackwell Verlag GmbH
