Histological changes in pulp-dentin complex in tooth subjected to traumatic occlusion and subluxation.

ABSTRACT:

Background

This study evaluated the influence of traumatic occlusion in the dentin-pulp complex a molar teeth submitted to subluxation.

Material and methods

Ninety Wistar rats were divided into groups Naïve (N), Subluxation (S) and Subluxation with traumatic occlusion (STO) and submitted to histological analysis after 7 and 21 days. A quantitative analysis was submitted to one-way ANOVA and Tukey's post-hoc test, and Chi-square and Bonferronís post-hoc test.

Results

S and STO showed a significant increase in blood vessels area (p < 0.0005), amorphous fundamental substance (p < 0.0005) and reactionary dentin formation (p < 0.0005), as well as a decrease in the nuclear profile (p < 0.0005), odontoblast layer (p = 0.013 and p < 0.0005) by day 7 when compared with N.
