Natural products have been used in medicines and are promising sources of novel therapeutic agents. Extensive research worldwide on grape extracts, such as skin and seeds, has exhibited bioactive polyphenolic compounds such as anthocyanins, flavonols and resveratrol. These bioactive compounds demonstrate various biological biological activities such as antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-carcinogenic and anti-inflammatory. This study evaluated the cytotoxicity of endodontic irrigants in a Wistar albino rat model. Among the tested substances, 10% of grape seed extract proved more biocompatible than EDTA on the seventh day. After 14 days, a significant reduction in the inflammatory process was verified in all experimental groups compared to the control. Still, it was significantly reduced in the Grape Seed Extract group (Group III). The inflammatory reaction observed during the 7 days may be attributed to the superficial necrosis promoted by EDTA.
