Aims: Evaluation of the effects of the latest root canal disinfectants i.e., Micro-bubble emulsion (MBE), Neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum perovskite (Nd: YAP), Emblica officinalis (E.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFObjective: This study aimed to assess the antimicrobial effectiveness of a new disinfection regimen Curcumin photosensitizer (CP), Synchronized Microbubble Photodynamic Activation (SYMPA), Photon-induced photoacoustic streaming (PIPS), and its impact on the extrusion bond strength (EBS) of root filling material to canal dentin.
Materials And Methods: Root canal treatments of sixty mandibular incisors were performed, and an overnight culture of E. faecalis was cultivated in the BHI medium.
To evaluate the outcome of post space disinfection using Er,Cr:YSGG laser (ECYL), riboflavin photosensitizer (RFP), and photon-induced photoacoustic streaming (PIPS) along with ethylene diamine tetra acetic acid (EDTA) as final irrigant on the bond values of glass fiber post (GFP) to the canal wall. Forty human mandibular premolars were subjected to root canal treatment after decoronation till the cementoenamel junction. Post space was prepared using a Gates-Glidden drill leaving 4 mm of gutta perch at the apical third of the root section.

Materials And Methods: Samples were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. An access opening in all samples was performed and the working length was decided using pro taper for canal finishing along with constant irrigation.
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the effect of different laser prototypes [Er, Cr: YSGG laser (ECYL), potassium titanyl phosphate laser (KTP), and Femtosecond laser (FSL)]and curcumin photosensitizer (CP) activated by Photodynamic therapy (PDT) on the bond strength of Pre-fabricated fiber reinforced composite (PFRC) post-bonded to radicular dentin.
Materials And Methods: A total of fifty mandibular single-rooted closed apex teeth were extracted carefully, assembled, and decoronated up to the cementoenamel junction. The working length of all specimens was determined by using a 10 K patency file and later, were cleaned and shaped with Protaper NiTi system using the crown down approach, dried, and obturated with gutta-percha using an AH Plus sealer.
