## Abstract Cyclooxygenase‐2 (COX‐2) is an inducible enzyme believed to be responsible for prostaglandin synthesis at site of inflammation. Recently, the activation of COX‐2 expression may be one of the important pathogenesis of root‐canal‐sealers–induced periapical inflammation. However, little is
## Abstract An important requirement for a root‐canal sealer is biologic compatibility; most evaluations have focused on general toxicological and local tissue irritating properties. There is only scant information about mutagenicity or carcinogenicity testing for root‐canal sealer. It has been sho
