introduction: incomplete anesthesia of inflamed teeth is a well known clinical occurrence and the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of ibuprofen as a premedication in improving the quality of anesthesia in patients with inflamed teeth pulps. methods: forty patients with the diagnosis of irreversible pulpitis in one mandibular tooth were selected. two other teeth in the sam...

In this second part of our 2-part review, we discuss recent research about pulp tests that determine the vitality of the tooth and clinically accepted pulp testers. A pain response to hot, cold or an electric pulp tester indicates the vitality of only a tooth's pulpal sensory supply; the response does not give any idea about the state of the pulp. Although the sensitivity of these tests is high...

A study was conducted to determine differences in pulpal sensitivity of the maxillary primary anterior teeth in groups of children with unilateral clefts of the lip, alveolar process and palate, bilateral clefts of the lip process, and children without clefts. Thirty-nine children between the ages of 4 and 5 years with a total of 216 maxillary primary anterior teeth were tested using a pulp tes...

Optimization and control of the pulp and paper making processes for cost-effective production requires more frequent monitoring of the relevant pulp and stock preparation quality parameters. A new quality monitoring system for pulping and stock preparation is developed. The new online L&W Pulp Tester is a complete wet laboratory with automatic sampling from different positions along the process...

Conventional methods used for the quantification of adherent material contained in a pulp suspension propose either filtration of the sample, which may lead to loss of sticky material in the filtrate, or dilution of the pulp, which may cause destabilization of the dissolved and colloidal material; thus, leading to unreliable results. In 1998, the Cellulose and Paper Group of University Complute...

b o m o B e c t e bstract his randomized crossover double-blind trial compared he efficacy of buccal infiltration with 4% articaine and % lidocaine (both with 1:100,000 epinephrine) in ecuring mandibular first molar pulp anesthesia. Injecions were given at least 1 week apart in 31 healthy dult volunteers. Electronic pulp testing was underaken at baseline and at 2 minute intervals until 30 inute...

Amaç: Bu çalışmada menstrual siklusun sağlıklı pulpa duyarlılığına etkisi araştırıldı. Objective: In this study, effect of menstrual cycle on healthy pulp sensitivity was investigated. Materials and methods: Pulpal sensitivity was assessed with electric pulp tester (EPT). The study was performed on 13 dental students without dysmenorrhea (49 teeth). Recordings were taken on four phases of the c...
