Abstract
The surface characteristics of periodontal disease extracted human teeth after treatment with different root conditioning agents for periodontal regeneration is of interest. Hence, 80 specimens were randomly distributed among the treatment categories of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, mixture of Doxycycline, citric acid and a detergent, citric acid and tetracycline, with each category consisting of 20 specimens. Analysis show significant variations in dentin percentage (%), tubular space percentage (%) and tubular diameter (µm(2)) after treatment with all experimental root conditioning agents. The results were significantly better in the ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and tetracycline groups, followed by the mixture of Doxycycline, citric acid and a detergent and citric acid groups. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, mixture of Doxycycline, citric acid and a detergent, citric acid and tetracycline can be used successfully as root conditioning agents enhancing periodontal regeneration. However, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and tetracycline showed greater promising results.
