Evaluation and Comparison of Dentin Thickness, Centering Ability, Canal Transportation, and Instrumentation Time of Pro AF Baby Gold and Pedoflex Files in Primary Root Canals Using a Cone Beam Computed Tomographic Analysis: An Study.

Introduction: Pediatric rotary systems have the advantage of improved canal centricity and conservative canal preparation with better obturation quality. Pro AF Baby Gold and Pedoflex files are two exclusive pediatric rotary file systems that were introduced in recent times.

Aim And Objective: The aim of the present study is to compare and evaluate the dentine thickness, centering ability, canal transportation, and instrumentation time of Pro AF Baby Gold and Pedoflex files using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).

Antimicrobial Properties and Substantivity of Gentamicin, Amoxicillin and Metronidazole (GAM) Antibiotic Solution with Chitosan as a Root Canal Irrigant - A Preliminary Study.

Unlabelled: Irrigation is one of the steps that is very crucial in a high-quality endodontic treatment. Hence, irrigant with good substantivity is essential which must not only be effective for the dissolution of the organic tissues but also effectively eliminate bacterial contamination. The aim of the study was to investigate and compare the antimicrobial efficacy of gentamicin, amoxicillin, and metronidazole (GAM) antibiotic solution, chitosan and their combination (GAMC), and analyze their sustained release property.

Evaluation of Paste Containing Gentamicin, Amoxicillin and Metronidazole in Endodontic Treatment of Primary Molars in Vivo.

Objective: To evaluate and compare the efficacy of gentamicin, amoxicillin and metronidazole (GAM) antibiotic paste in noninstrumentation and instrumentation techniques in infected primary molars.

Methods: Sixty primary molars in children of 4 to 8 years were selected and divided into four groups: teeth without any periapical or furcation involvement undergoing pulpectomy by noninstrumentation (Group N1) and instrumentation (Group N2) technique using GAM antibiotic paste; teeth with periapical or furcation involvement undergoing pulpectomy by noninstrumentation (Group R1) and instrumentation (Group R2) technique using GAM antibiotic paste. Regular follow-up at 3, 6 and 12 months was carried out for each group and all the clinical and radiographic changes were evaluated statistically using SPSS software.
