Article Synopsis
  • This study examined how static and dynamic conditions impact the solubility of three endodontic sealers: AH Plus, Bio-C Sealer, and EndoSequence BC.
  • The research involved creating 150 specimens, storing them in distilled water or subjecting them to thermocycling, and then measuring weight loss to determine solubility.
  • Results indicated that AH Plus had the lowest solubility while dynamic conditions significantly increased solubility across all sealers, potentially affecting long-term treatment effectiveness.

Statement Of Problem: The release of titanium (Ti) particles from the surface of endosseous dental implants is not well understood.

Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of thermocycling on the surface texture and release of Ti particles from the surface of dental implants.

Material And Methods: Three MSI dental implants and 3 Ti alloy (TiAlV) plates were divided into 6 subgroups (n=3).

Angiogenesis is one of the essential processes that occur during wound healing. It is responsible for providing immunity as well as the regenerative cells, nutrition, and oxygen needed for the healing of the alveolar socket following tooth extraction. The inappropriate removal of formed blood clots causes the undesirable phenomenon of alveolar osteitis (AO) or dry socket.
