Nano-sized materials have been applied in various fields of dentistry. Nanotechnology can be employed in orthodontics to enhance the quality of treatment. In the current study, a comprehensive review is carri...
[ 3 ] - Applicability of CBCT as a Substitute for the Gold-Standard Tooth Clearing Technique for Identification of Internal Anatomical Variations of Mandibular Incisors
Background and Aim: Knowledge about the root canal system variations is crucial for successful endodontic treatment. This study aimed to examine the applicability of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) as a substitute for the gold-standard tooth clearing technique in identification of internal anatomical variations of mandibular incisors. Materials and Methods: This in-vitro study evaluated 6...
[ 4 ] - Evaluation of Antiplaque Efficacy of a Propolis-Based Herbal Toothpaste: A Single-Blind Parallel Clinical Trail
Background and Aim: In recent years, the use of herbal oral care products has been taken into consideration for reducing dental plaque accumulation. Propolis has been widely used in medicine due to its multiple biological properties. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antiplaque efficacy of an herbal toothpaste containing propolis in comparison with a control group. Materials and Method...
[ 5 ] - Effect of intranasal midazolam with/without inhalation sedation (N2O/O2) in 3‒6-year-old uncooperative dental patients
Introduction: Due to incomplete development of coping skills in children, they usually cannot cope with stressful situations like dental appointments. The present study aims to evaluate the effect of intranasal midazolam with/without inhalation sedation (N2O/O2) in children with high levels of dental anxiety. Materials and Methods: This crossover double-blinded clinical trial was conducted on 1...
[ 6 ] - Knowledge and Practice of General Dentists Regarding the COVID-19 in Zanjan, Iran
Background and Aim: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‑CoV‑2) that caused the coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is transmitted through close contact via respiratory droplets when an infected patient sneezes, coughs, or talks. Due to close contact with patients, dentists are at higher risk of COVID-19. The aim of this study was to evaluate...
