studying the antibacterial effect of Cosuts paste as an intracanal medication against Enterococcus faecalis that present in necrotic primary teeth
The children were randomly divided into two groups (I, II) Group I (N=12): using Costus-based paste as an intracanal medicament. Group II (N= 12): Calcium hydroxide iodoform paste (Metapex) as an intracanal medicament.
Procedure:
Access opening was started. then a swab was taken from the distal root canal with a dry paper point and transferred to a sterile test tube. The canals were filled with an intracanal medication according to the patient group. In group I, the canals was filled with a previously prepared Costus-based paste for one week, and In Group II, the canals were filled with Meta paste for one week. After 1 week, the paste was washed away from the canals then another swab was taken from the distal canal by a dry paper point as done before preoperatively.
The 2 swabs were transferred within 2 hours to the lab for bacterial culture and detection of enterococcus faecalis count.
