Background: Immature maxillary central teeth can be managed by using several treatment options. The aim of this finite element stress analysis study was to evaluate the effect of different treatment procedures on the stresses on immature maxillary incisor teeth models that generated on cone beam computed tomography, by trauma and bite forces.
Methods: A total of 11 different models consisting of revascularization treatment using MTA and biodentine and the state of the root apex formed with cement after treatment, apexification, modified apexification, traditional root canal treatment and two different control groups have been created.
The aim of the present work was to measure the fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth that were apicoected with different procedures. Seventy-two extracted human maxillary anterior teeth were included in this study. The specimens were randomly assigned to three main groups according to the apical surgery procedures and then two subgroups according to the irrigation protocols during root canal treatment and total of six groups were obtained (n = 12).

Materials And Methods: Twenty-one FRC posts were divided into three groups according to surface treatment methods as follows: An untreated control group air abrasion with Al2O3group, and Er:YAG laser treated group with 150 mJ parameter. Fiber posts were then built up to dual-cure resin cement.
Statement Of Problem: The effects of different post space irrigation procedures on the bond strength of a self-adhesive resin cement to the root canal dentin are still unclear.
Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effects of alternative post space irrigation procedures on the cement strengths of posts attached with a self-adhesive resin cement.
Material And Methods: Forty single-rooted teeth were selected, and after root canal preparation and obturation, post spaces were prepared.
The aim of this study is to compare the effect of a single diode laser application and agitation of EDTA with diode laser with different parameters at different time intervals on root fracture. Ninety mandibular incisors were instrumented except the negative control group. The specimens were divided randomly into 10 groups according to final irrigation procedure: (G1) non-instrumented; (G2) distilled water; (G3) 15% EDTA; (G4) ultrasonically agitated EDTA; (G5) single 1.
