Background: The objective of the study is to compare stress distribution in a tooth restored with everstick post and sharonlay by means of three-dimensional finite element analysis (3D-FEA).
Materials And Methods: An experimental original study was carried out in which two 3D-FEA models were constructed: (1) tooth restored with everstick post and metal ceramic crown and (2) tooth restored with sharonlay. The material properties were assigned and a force of 100N, 200N, 300N, and 400N was applied to the centric stop of the occlusal surface in centric occlusion at a 45° inclination in a linguolabial direction to the long axis of the tooth.
Objective: This study aims to investigate and compare the establishment of dentinal cracks during root canal preparation using a stereomicroscope and a scanning electron microscope (SEM).
Materials And Methods: Sixty removed human mandibular premolars were separated into three groups of 20: two experimental and one control. Within the randomized controlled experimental groups, root canals were constructed.
Background In the maxillary aesthetic zone, the symmetry and proportions of hard and soft dental tissue play a crucial role. A dental practitioner should have a thorough knowledge of parameters such as crown length (CL), crown width (CW), zenith point, and gingival angle (GA) to perform teeth restorations. This study aims to assess the anterior hard and soft tissue parameters and determine the crown shape and its correlation with the gingival parameters of young adults' anterior teeth.

Materials And Methods: Thirty premolars were used for specimen preparation. Group 1 (the control group) consisted of intact enamel samples, group 2: CPP-ACPF (Tooth Mousse Plus), group 3: bioenamel remineralising gel (Prevest DenPro).
Introduction: An essential part of root canal cleaning is irrigating the system to remove any remaining debris and tissue remains. The purpose of root canal therapy is to shape and clean the endodontic space, reduce the bacterial burden, and remove the pulp tissue. In this research, several irrigation solutions with and without sonic irrigation were evaluated to see how quickly tissue dissolves.

An comparative study of various methods and materials helps in evaluation of a superior method to provide a long-lasting relief.
Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of diode laser (DL) and Clinpro XT Varnish for managing DH.
