Commonly, the pulp remains half dead, half vital, and chronically inflamed [12]. Des anomalies cytogénétiques, comme les liens transversaux entre les protéines de l'ADN, les aberrations chromosomiques, les échanges de chromatides soeurs ou nucléées, n'ont pas été relevées dans la moelle osseuse de rats normaux exposés au formaldéhyde marqué d'hydrogène radioactif [3H] ou de carbone [14C] à des concentrations aussi élevées que 15 parties par million (ppm); dans la moelle osseuse des rats carencés en glutation (inhibitée sur le plan métabolique) exposés au formaldéhyde [3H] et au formaldéhyde [14C] à des concentrations aussi élevées que 10 ppm; et dans la moelle osseuse des singes Rhésus exposés au formaldéhyde [14C] à des concentrations aussi élevées que 6 ppm.

Although MTA biological approach and its performance is comparable or similar to formocresol, it has some disadvantages such as prolonged setting time, difficult handling characteristics and high material cost [27,28,29].
