Abstract

The research question in this study is how usage of Earth Alkaline Hydroxides differ in relation to their usage in endodontic root canal treatment according to their solubilities. Method employed has three main components:  Review of usage of calcium hydroxide in endodontic root canal treatment, and preferred solubility properties of the antibacterial material for success in the treatment.  Formulation of the titration experiment by determining types and volumes of the materials that will be used during the experiment, and tools that will be utilized.  Conducting the experiment, doing required measurements, and doing the calculations to compare solubility levels. A titration experiment was set up to observe and measure solubilities for the Earth Alkaline Hydroxides investigated. In the experiment, by using 0.10M HCl solution and by adding bromythamol blue indicator same volumes of saturated solutions of group IIA hydroxides were titrated. Volume and type of water used, pressure acting on the solutions and concentration of the titrant, type of indicator, drops of bromothymol blue are kept constant to eliminate impact of varying values of these on the calculated value of solubility. Experiment was conducted not only at room temperature but also at body temperature in order to replicate temperature level relevant in endodontic treatment. Ksp Values were calculated in order to compare the solubility levels. Magnesium hydroxide and barium hydroxide are chosen in this study in addition to calcium hydroxide, to compare solubility levels. Experiment showed that Ksp values ranked as follows: KspMg(OH)2 < KspCa(OH)2 < KspBa(OH)2. This result confirmed that calcium hydroxide is more suitable for endodontic treatment as average solubility level is necessary for successful root canal treatment.
