[Animal experimental short and long-term study of a calcium hydroxide line]

Thirty-two cavities (class 5) out of total of 64 were coated either with the test substance Hydroxyline or with the control substance Dycal and closed with the standard compound Adaptic. Statistical analysis of seven criteria evaluated histologically (rating: 0-3) revealed no significant differences between the tested characteristics of the control substance Dycal and Hydroxyline in either the short-term or the long-term study.
