Current literature suggests that tooth fracture post endodontic treatment is a more common complication than an reinfection. The best way to treat such rehabilitation with complete coverage restoration or without foundation restoration. Critical analysis of several in vitro studies suggest posterior glass fiber reinforced composite restoration, particularly posts placed horizontally bucco-lingu...

Impaction and eruption disturbance of permanent teeth are frequently encountered in orthodontic practice. The canine play an important role both functionally esthetically. Eruption a maxillary canine, if left untreated, can cause not only disturbed jaw movement esthetic problems, but also root resorption adjacent teeth, thus should be diagnosed treated appropriately. In this report, we present ...

Present study aimed to improve the bond strength of denture teeth acrylic resin base by chemical or mechanical modification on bonding surface teeth. Total 40 artificial central incisors and lateral were divided into five groups: group I, 8 samples without (control group); II, (bonding treated with monomer); III, monomer glaze layer removed aluminum oxide stone bur); IV, acetone); V, (acetone a...

The purpose of this study was to assess the pulp healing process in baboon teeth after pulpotomy using an enriched collagen solution (ECS) as a pulp dressing. Twenty-five noncarious permanent teeth of two young baboon monkeys were pulpotomized under a rubber dam. After coronal pulp resection and hemostasis, ECS was applied on the pulp stumps and covered with sterile dental wax. The controls wer...

INTRODUCTION Bacterial infection of tooth pulp can progress into periapical diseases. Root canal treatment has been established as the best treatment. In cases of failure, nonsurgical retreatment of teeth is preferred to surgical procedure and extraction. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this historical cohort study, 104 permanent teeth with apical lesion were treated during 2002-2008. All teeth show...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate and compare the efficacy of ferric sulfate, glutaraldehyde, and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) as pulpotomy medicaments in primary molars. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a perspective randomized clinical trial. A total of 90 molars from 42 children aged 4-8 years were selected for pulpotomy procedure. Teeth were randomly divided into three equal groups of 30 teeth each...

This cross-sectional study determined the prevalence of apical periodontitis in 1035 root canal-treated teeth from adult French patients and investigated the influence of the quality of canal fillings and coronal restorations on the periradicular status. Periapical radiographs were used for analyses, and teeth were classified as healthy or diseased according to the periapical index scoring syst...
