Patterns of Pulpal Mineralization in Mandibular Anteriors: A Micro-computed Tomography Analysis.

Introduction: Current understanding of the morphology of pulpal mineralizations is limited. Understanding the specific location and type of such mineralizations will aid clinicians in diagnosis, case complexity assessment, and treatment planning. Therefore, this study correlated the appearance of a reduced canal volume (CV) in conventional radiographs with the presence of pulp mineralizations (PMs) utilizing micro-computed tomography (CT) analysis.

Morphology of pulpal mineralizations: A scoping review.

Objective: The aim of this scoping review was to summarize and discuss the morphological features and associated factors of pulpal mineralizations (PMs) as described within the literature.

Data: The study protocol was registered on the Open Science Framework platform and is available at the following link: https://osf.io/hfqwe.

Endodontic complications associated with orthodontic temporary anchorage devices: A systematic review of human studies.

This review, registered in PROSPERO (CRD42018102582), assessed the effect of temporary anchorage device placement on endodontic complications. A search strategy was followed to identify studies where any temporary anchorage devices contacted or were in proximity to tooth roots in humans. Studies with low possibility of bias and published in English or Latin-character languages were considered for inclusion.
