Application of bis-eugenol to a zinc oxide eugenol cement.

OBJECTIVES: To assess the usefulness of dimerized eugenol (bis-eugenol) in dentistry, the physical properties of zinc oxide eugenol cement (ZOE) with bis-eugenol and the cytotoxicity of bis-eugenol were studied. METHODS: Setting time, compressive strength, solubility and disintegration of ZOE cement with bis-eugenol according to the specifications of JDMAS315 were evaluated. The cytotoxicity of bis-eugenol and eugenol toward two different cell types, HGF (a primary culture of human gingival fibroblast) and HSG (a human epidermoid carcinoma cell line derived from a salivary gland) was evaluated by the MTT test and in terms of cell survival. RESULTS: Addition of bis-eugenol to ZOE did not decrease the physical properties when employed at the ratio of 9:1 or 6:1 (liquid ND:bis-eugenol, w/w). Bis-eugenol was less toxic than eugenol in the cell culture tests. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this assay demonstrated that bis-eugenol is useful in ZOE.[1]
