Abstract

Introduction: The objective of this study was to monitor the effects of chemomechanical preparation (CMP) performed with 6% sodium hypochlorite and calcium hydroxide-based intracanal medication (ICM) on the levels and diversity of bacteria, endotoxins (lipopolysaccharides {[}LPS]), and lipoteichoic acid (LTA) in root canals of teeth with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis. Methods: Samples were collected from 10 teeth with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis before CMP (S1), after CMP (S2), and after ICM (S3). The levels of bacteria, LPS, and LTA were assessed by using checkerboard DNA-DNA hybridization, LAL Pyrogent 5000, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, respectively. Wilcoxon test, repeated-measures analysis of variance, and Tukey post hoc test were used for statistical analysis at a significance level of 5%. Results: Forty species were detected at S1. Two species were eliminated after CMP and 5 after ICM. Resistant and pain-related species were detected in the root canals. Higher levels of culturable bacteria were detected at S1. However, CMP and ICM effectively reduced the microbial load in the root canals. Higher levels of LPS and LTA were detected at S1. CMP was effective in reducing both LPS and LTA (P < .05). ICM produced additional reduction in the levels of LPS (P > .05) and LTA (P < .05). Conclusions: Chemomechanical preparation using 6% sodium hypochlorite and calcium hydroxide-based intracanal medication were effective in reducing the levels of bacteria, LPS, and LTA in teeth with vital pulp and irreversibly inflamed pulp.
