[Implantation of flakes of castor oil resin in rat dental alveolus].

Abstract

Os objetivos do presente trabalho foram: 1) testar a biocompatibilidade de uma resina natural, derivada do óleo de mamona, implantada na cavidade de extração dental de ratos, e 2) estudar a possível interferência do material na cronologia do reparo alveolar. O material (AUG-EX, Poliquil Araraquara Polímeros Químicos Ltda., Araraquara - SP) foi implantado no alvéolo imediatamente após a extração do incisivo superior direito e os ratos foram sacrificados de 1 a 6 semanas após a extração ou extração + implante. As hemimaxilas foram descalcificadas e processadas para inclusão em parafina e obtenção de cortes semi-seriados, corados com hematoxilina-eosina. Os flocos da resina, de forma irregular e tamanho variável, localizaram-se entre os terços alveolares médio e cervical, inicialmente circundados por tecido de granulação e a seguir por quantidade progressivamente maior de tecido ósseo, no geral com a presença de um tecido conjuntivo interposto, mas em algumas áreas estabelecendo aparente osseointegração direta. Não houve persistência da reação inflamatória, mas observou-se pequena quantidade de células gigantes aderidas à superfície do material, em todos os períodos. A análise histométrica (contagem diferencial de pontos) do terço apical mostrou um atraso de 13% a 20% no reparo alveolar dos ratos implantados, com menor neoformação óssea associada a maiores volumes percentuais de tecido conjuntivo e de remanescentes do coágulo sangüíneo.

The purposes of the present study were: 1) to investigate the biocompatibility of a natural resin (made of fatty acids extracted from Ricinus communis) implanted in the dental alveolus of rats and 2) to verify any possible interference of that material in the osseous healing following tooth extraction. The resin (AUG-EX, Poliquil Araraquara Polímeros Químicos LTDA, Araraquara - SP) was placed inside de alveoli immediately after extraction of the upper right incisors. The animals were sacrificed 1, 2, 3 and 6 weeks after extraction or extraction + implantation. The hemi-maxillae were decalcified and processed for paraffin embedding. Longitudinal 6-micrometer-thick semi-serial sections stained with hematoxylin and eosin were obtained. Histologic examination showed particles of irregular shape and variable size (700-1200 mum) localized in the medium/cervical alveolar thirds, with a scanty but persistent foreign body reaction. From the second week on, as the relative volume of bone trabeculae increased, it was seen in close contact with the surface of the implanted material in some regions. Histometric analysis (differential point counting method), used to quantify the healing process in the apical third, showed a small but significant decrease (13%-20%) in new bone formation in the implanted rats. In conclusion, the results show that, in spite of its biocompatible nature, the studied resin hinders the post-extration healing process.
