title: Dental pulp reaction to Cavit temporary filling material.
abstract: Seventy-two teeth in three Macaque fasicularis monkeys were used to evaluate pulpal response to cavit. Displacement of odontoblastic nuclei was evaluated histologically at three time periods in order to identify initial, early, and final responses. There were no statistically significant differences in pulpal response between Cavit and the zinc oxide-eugenol controls when used in accordance with the manufacturer's directions.
