Research Abstract |
The rapid apatite conversion type calcium phosphate cement (RAC-CPC) becomes high alkalinity when stiffening, and it becomes neutral and shows no stimulation when it changes to hydroxyapatite. The purpose of this study was : 1. To evaluate the influence of RAC-CPC for the dorsal subcutaneous tissue and to evaluate the pH changes of RAC-CPC. 2. To evaluate pathologically on application of RAC-CPC for pulpotoiny. It was suggested that RAC-CPC have the ability to the dental pulp stimulates for pulpotomy, but not enough to induce the hard tissue formation.
