Abstract
Concern has been expressed in the past that the use of corticosteroids within root canal medicaments or pulp capping agents may lead to deleterious systemic effects. Calculations of the highest possible amounts that could be used, plus an analysis of the release and diffusion characteristics, and comparisons with known endogenous levels of corticosteroids, reveal that the intradental use of Ledermix paste and Ledermix cement is unlikely to result in any systemic side-effects.
