OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of Enterococcus faecalis in endodontic infections in both deciduous and permanent teeth by culture and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods. METHODS A total of 145 children aged 5-13 years old were involved in this study. The presence of E. faecalis in necrotic deciduous and permanent teeth root canals was studied using cultu...

Aim. To evaluate the incidence and severity of postendodontic treatment pain (PEP) subsequent to root canal treatment (RCT) in vital and necrotic pulps and after retreatment. Methodology. A prospective study. Participants were all patients (n = 274) who underwent RCT in teeth with vital pulp, necrotic pulp, or vital pulp that had been treated for symptomatic irreversible pulpitis or who receive...

Introduction: Pulpectomy is a conservative treatment plan for primary necrotic teeth and Zinc Oxide Eugenol is still a good choice as root canal filling material but long term studies on poor prognosis molars are limited and almost contradictory. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiographical success rate of pulpectomy of necrotic primary molars using ZOE as the root c...

There have been published regenerative endodontic protocols for treating immature teeth in young patients, but there are no clinical considerations the adult teeth. The goal of present review is to propose a specific protocol both mature and with necrotic pulps. Research was performed from January April 2021. From 539 studies identified through initial search, 23 were qualified final analysis (...

endodontic intervention in necrotic immature permanent teeth is usually a clinical challenge. with appropriate case selection, regenerative treatment can be effective, providing a desirable outcome. however, there is still no consensus on the optimal disinfection protocol or the method to achieve predictable clinical outcome. this article presents two cases of regenerative treatment in necrotic...

OBJECTIVE In this article, the authors report on an in vivo study in which they assessed the validity of two commonly used cold pulp tests (carbon dioxide [CO(2)]and 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane) and an electrical pulp tester (EPT) in determining pulp vitality by using direct inspection of the pulp as the reference standard. METHODS One hundred fifty patients undergoing endodontic therapy at the...

introduction: one of the most important reasons for postoperative pain is the extrusion of debris from the apical foramen during preparation and shaping of root canals. the aim of this clinical trial was to evaluate the severity of postoperative pain with the use of two different engine-driven niti systems. methods and materials: ninety mandibular molars were randomly divided into two groups ( ...
