Dentinal tubule penetration following ultrasonic, sonic, and single-cone technique of a biosealer: An study.

Background: The endodontic space is complex, and using a single-cone obturation technique fails to ensure a complete filling.

Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the effect of ultrasonic activation, sonic activation, and single-cone technique of a biosealer on its dentinal tubular penetration.

Materials And Methods: In the experiment, single-root mandibular premolars were randomly assigned to three groups ( = 20): group A, ultrasonic activation; Group B, sonic activation; and Group C, single-cone technique.

An Outbreak of Limping Syndrome Associated with Feline Calicivirus.

Feline calicivirus (FCV) is a common viral pathogen found in domestic cats. FCV is highly contagious and demonstrates a high genetic variability. Upper respiratory tract disease, oral ulcerations, salivation, and gingivitis-stomatitis have been regarded as typical clinical signs of FCV infection.

Bacterial Periodontitis in Horses: An Epidemiological Study in Southern Italy.

Equine periodontal disease (EPD) is a painful oral inflammatory syndrome characterized by multifactorial pathogenesis. Although it is well known that bacterial proliferation and consequent gingivitis are caused by the decomposition process of food residues, in hypsodont species, the pathogenetic role and the different bacterial species involved in the progression of EPD must be fully clarified. This study aimed to investigate the association of bacteria, including the complex red bacteria (RCB), with EPD, and to evaluate possible EPD risk factors.
