Early diagnosis of impacted mandibular second molar (MM2) is critical since treatment at a later stage can be complicated. It often requires multidisciplinary approach. Surgical uprighting MM2 appears to safe, effective, and reliable alternative conventional orthodontic mechanics with minimal risk morbidity or pulpo-periodontal problems. Timely factors affecting outcomes must assessed for succe...

Palatogingival groove is a rare developmental anomaly involving the lingual surface of the maxillary incisor and resulting in severe endodontic and periodontal lesions. This case report describes a multidisciplinary approach for the combined management of the endodontic and periodontal problems for successful rehabilitation of the involved tooth. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) helped in c...

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate morphologically the response of feline teeth pulp to direct pulp capping with two different self-etch adhesive systems. Twenty-four cavities in feline teeth were mechanically exposed and assigned to one of two experimental groups: AdheSE + Tetric Ceram (the ASE group), or Adper Prompt L-Pop + Filtek Supreme (the APLP group). There was also a cont...

Microorganisms are very important in the initiation of pulpo-periapical pathosis. Due to the complexity of the root canal system, the mechanical instrumentation of the root canal system should be supplemented with proper canal irrigants and medicaments. It has been revealed that due to the interactions of canal irrigants and medicaments with dentin and contents of the canal system, the antimicr...
