Root resorption might result in the premature loss of the affected teeth. Most teeth with internal and external root resorption are symptom free and are first clinically recognized through routine radiographs. Calcium hydroxide is used as a temporary intracanal medicament in the management of root resorption followed by mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) treatment.Lesions appears as a uniform, ro...

The benefits of using sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) as endodontic irrigants, and calcium hydroxide as an inter-appointment medicament, are well known to dentists. Many steps undertaken during endodontic treatment and retreatment are rather mechanical in nature, and less attention is committed to understanding the biological issues underlying endodontic t...

The application of vesicular system in drug delivery has changed the definitions of diagnosis and treatment in different aspects of biomedical field. The vesicular system as liposomes, niosomes, sphinosomes, transferosomes and pharmacosomes are used to improve the therapeutic index of both existing and new drug molecules by encapsulating an active medicament inside vesicular structure in one su...

An important consideration in endodontic treatment is the elimination of microorganisms, including fungi, from the complex threedimensional root canal system. Yeasts can be detected in 7-17% of infected root canals. Candida albicans (CA) has a major role in endodontic treatment failure as the most important fungus isolated from the root canal system. C. albicans has been associated with root ca...

Biofilms and microbial aggregates are the common mechanisms for the survival of bacteria in nature. In other words, the ability to form biofilms has been regarded as a virulence factor. Microbial biofilms play an essential role in several infectious diseases such as pulp and periradicular pathosis. The aim of this article was to review the adaptation mechanisms of biofilms, their roles in pulpa...
