The purpose of this study was to propose a new method for quantitative evaluation of the pulpal inflammation to restorative materials using immunohistochemistry and image analysis. Class V cavities were prepared and filled with different restorative materials in 20 healthy premolars to be extracted

Studies have shown synthetic calcium phosphates such as hydroxyapatite and beta tricalcium phosphate to be biocompatible in vivo. However, few studies have quantitated histological responses to the implants. The aim of this study was to develop a method for the quantitative assessment of tissue bioc
## Abstract Studies were designed to demonstrate the need for standardization of shape of samples used as implants to evaluate histotoxicity of polymer materials. Six medicalβgrade polymers (polypropylene, polyethylene, polyurethane, silicone rubber, poly(vinyl chloride), and Teflon) were extruded
