MTA, Bio-Oss, and dentin chips have been successfully used in endodontics. The aim of this study was to assess the adhesion and migration of dental stem cells on human pulp ceiling cavities filled with these endodontic materials in an experimental model, which mimics the clinical conditions of regenerative endodontics. Cavities were formed, by a homemade mold, on untouched third molars, filled ...

abstract : the crown-root fracture is a common tooth injury which compromises the biological width and need proper endodontic and prosthodontic treatment to achieve acceptable clinical outcome. this case report describes clinical management of crown-root fracture in maxillary central incisors which was successfully treated by forceps eruption with 180˚ rotation to restore the biological width. ...

objective: the use of sugar-free chewing gums has been reported to be highly effective in the prevention of dental caries. this study carried out to compare the effect of mastic gum and a xylitol chewing gum on remineralization of caries-like lesions. materials and methods: in this cross-over, single blinded, in situ study, first, artificial caries-like lesions were created in six extracted hum...

Background: Neutron contamination is produced in electron beams of linac when tooth or dental materials are located in the path of beam. Objective: This study aims to determine the neutron dose contamination from different dental restoration materials in electron mode of a linac. Material and Methods: In this experimental study, the neutron dose contamination was calculated in the p...

Introduction: An acquired diastema may be a warning sign signaling advanced periodontitis. Gingival inflammation, reduced bony support, and tooth mobility contribute to the drifting of teeth, condition called pathologic migration, formed gap or space between two teeth more. Identification causative factors involved in migration is crucial for successful treatment. Case Management: 1 - A 38-year...

The aim of this research was to study the proliferative response of junctional epithelium (JE) and gingival connective tissue (GCT) to mechanical stimulation in vivo with regard to the potential occurrence of apical migration of JE and loss of GCT attachment during orthodontic tooth movement. Elastic bands were inserted between the maxillary first and second molars of male rats aged 8 weeks, wh...

Dentin-pulp complex regeneration is a promising alternative treatment for the irreversible pulpitis caused by tooth trauma or dental caries. This process mainly relies on the recruitment of endogenous or the transplanted dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) to guide dentin-pulp tissue formation. Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), a well-known potent mitogenic, angiogenic, and chemoattractive agen...

introduction:there are conflicting reports on the effects of surgical removal of impacted mandibular third molars on the periodontium of the adjacent teeth. the aim of this study was to compare the condition of the periodontium six months after extraction of impacted mandibular third molars with baseline values. methods: fifty patients with mesioangular impacted mandibular third molarsparticipa...
