Abstract

Aim: To evaluate the efficiency of Toluidine blue in the staining of the resected root  fragments during third molar surgery. Materials And Methods: A sample containing the root and attached bone fragment was  used. 0.2 percent of the toluidine blue was used for staining the sample. The stain was  washed off from the sample and the intensity of stain colour on the root and bone fragments  were observed with a naked eye under daylight . Results: The bone fragment stained in light blue colour whereas the root stained in a dark  blue colour  Conclusion: In this in vitro study, we conclude that toluidine blue can be used in the localisation of the resected root fragments. However, its safety when used intraorally in proximity to the bone needs to be further evaluated.
