Comparison of Intact dental pulp tissue characteristics, Comparison between primary and permanent tooth in dog

Responses of dental pulp in primary and permanent tooth are different to pulp therapy, trauma, caries, dehydration, pulp tester and dental materials. The reactions of primary dental pulp in compare with permanent dental pulp are different.Can these various reactions be attributed to different histological characteristics in two groups of teeth? The aim of this study is comparison of histological characteristics between dental pulps in two groups of teeth of dog.Methods and Materials: 20 primary and 20 permanent teeth of two dogs were selected. Forty teeth were extracted under general anesthesia. 1-2 millimeter of apices of roots were cut and immersed in 10% formaldehyde solution. Then the samples were sent to oral histological lab for staining and sliding. Oral pathologist examined the histology of dental pulps and reported the results. The data of study were analyzed by SPSS software 11.5. Then data were compared with Mann-Whitney and t-test. Finally findings were reported The relative frequency of fibroblasts, mesenchymal undifferentiating cells, blood vessels, collagen and nerve fibers and immune cells in primary and permanent dental pulp in dog had no significant difference (p value
