BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Systematic investigations of the distinguishing imaging features between spinal hyperplastic hematopoietic bone marrow and bone metastasis have not been reported, to our knowledge. The purpose of this study was to determine the distinguishing imaging features of the 2 entities. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the radiologic images of 8 consecutive male...

Design: 15 large hyperplastic polyps (>1 cm), including 4 with dysplastic foci, 10 small hyperplastic polyps (≤1 cm), and 9 gastric adenomas were evaluated for immunohistochemical expression of MGMT, MLH-1, β-catenin, p27, p16, and p53. Polyps with dysplasia or abnormal β-catenin expression were assessed for APC and β-catenin (CTNNB1) mutations. Large hyperplastic polyps and adenomas were analy...

Endodontic pain is one of the most predominantly associated symptoms. The may arise due to either because an endodontic cause (or) a periradicular cause, importantly type variant commonly encountered by dentist in their clinical practice. objective treatment prevent or cure apical periodontitis (AP) caused infection root canal systems affected teeth persistence primary emergence after 1. An onl...

Attaining local anesthesia for the treatment of teeth diagnosed with irreversible pulpitis ("hot" tooth) can be a challenge. This article looks at the strategies a dentist can use to help achieve adequate pulpal anesthesia for the patient, thereby eliminating or reducing treatment pain.

background: successful anesthesia during root canal therapy may be difficult to obtain. intraosseousinjection significantly improves anesthesia’s success as a supplemental pulpal anesthesia, particularly incases of irreversible pulpitis. the aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of x‑tip intraosseousinjection and inferior alveolar nerve (ian) block in primary anesthesia for mandibular p...

INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to assess the accuracy of sensibility tests by correlating it with histologic pulp condition. METHODS AND MATERIALS Assessment of clinical signs and symptoms were performed on 65 permanent teeth that were scheduled to be extracted for periodontal, prosthodontic or orthodontic reasons. The normal pulp and reversible pulpitis were considered as treatab...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the immediate changes in the pulp-dentin complex that result from crown preparation, and their correlation with the thickness of remaining dentin and the preparation technique (with or without water spray cooling). Thirty upper intact premolars scheduled for extraction for orthodontic reasons were high speed prepared, extracted immediately after preparation...
