In vitro release of hydroxyl ions from calcium hydroxide gutta-percha points

TLDR
The calcium hydroxide containing gutta-percha points showed a significantly lower alkalizing potential than Reogan rapid and calcium hydoxide mixed with distilled water (p < 0.05) and was proposed for temporary filling of root canals.

Additive antimicrobial activity of calcium hydroxide and chlorhexidine on common endodontic bacterial pathogens.

TL;DR: The results of this study support the use of a combination of Ca(OH)2 and chlorhexidine for faster eradication of P. micros and S. intermedius from infected root canals.

Calcium loss from root canal dentin following EDTA, EGTA, EDTAC, and tetracycline-HCl treatment with or without subsequent NaOCl irrigation.

TL;DR: The aim of this study was to determine the extent of calcium removal on root canal dentin after 17% EDTA, 17% EGTA, 15% EDTAC, and 1% tetracycline-HCl treatment; with or without subsequent use of 2% NaOCl.

pH changes in dental tissues after root canal filling with calcium hydroxide.

TL;DR: The pH changes in dental tissues of monkeys were studied by means of pH indicators after endodontic treatment with calcium hydroxide to find that in resorption areas, an alkaline pH was also observed at the exposed dentinal surfaces.

Effects of calcium hydroxide and sodium hypochlorite on the dissolution of necrotic porcine muscle tissue.

TL;DR: Apparently, long-term treatment with Ca(OH) 2 can dissolve necrotic tissue and pretreatment with Ca-OH- 2 can enhance the tissue dissolving effect of NaOCl.

In vitro determination of direct antimicrobial effect of calcium hydroxide

TL;DR: The antimicrobial effect of calcium hydroxide was shown to occur after 12 h on M. luteus and F. nucleatum, 24 h on Streptococcus sp, 48 h on E. coli, and 72 h on S. aureus and P. aeruginosa.
