Article Synopsis
- Exercise can have adverse effects
- : Physical activity, especially high-intensity exercise (HIE), can lead to negative changes in dental tissues, including increased inflammation and degeneration in the dental pulp and periodontal ligament (PDL).
- Study setup
- : Researchers studied male Balb/c mice divided into two exercise groups (low and high-intensity) and supplemented them with creatine monohydrate (CrM) to observe the effects on dental tissues.
- Findings
- : The HIE group showed significant dental tissue damage and increased inflammatory markers compared to the control group, but CrM supplementation appeared to reduce these harmful effects.
Objectives: This study will evaluate the effects of anti-epileptic drugs and brushing used in children on the color change of three restorative materials by creating an in vitro study model.
Methods: Forty samples of polyacid-modified composite resin (compomer), glass ionomer cement (GIC), and composite resin (CR) were prepared. Samples were split into four groups (n = 10) and soaked in three anti-epileptic drugs (Tegretol, Depakine, Keppra) and distilled water.
Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the frequency of the gubernacular canal observed on cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images in a group of Turkish populations according to age and gender.
Materials And Methods: CBCT images of 500 cases were evaluated retrospectively, and a total of 117 impacted or erupting teeth were included in the study, and the presence of gubernacular canal was recorded according to age, gender and eruption status of the tooth. SPSS program was used for statistical analysis.
BACKGROUND Since 3-dimensional cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) started to be used in dentistry, mineral density can now be examined with computer software from the data on the images obtained. Detailed and clear images at different slice intervals can be obtained with CBCT, and mineral density can be measured from the image data on a computer with a Hounsfield unit (HU) scale. In addition to the broad opportunities presented by CBCT, this feature has presented a wider perspective to researchers.

In additionally, this study was showed effect of crown fracture on root fracture healing.
Material And Methods: All of the individuals included in the study were obtained images with the cone-beam computed tomography range of 0,3 voxel and 8.
Background/purpose: The reliability and accuracy of linear distance and voxel density (VD) measurements are very important in dentistry. The purpose of this study was to assess the accuracy and reliability of linear distances and VD measurements of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) at different voxel sizes.
Materials And Methods: Eighteen-millimeter linears of size 40 gutta-percha were prepared in fresh sheep head.
The purpose of this study was to examine the possible effect of extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMFs), from a high-voltage source, on rat teeth in terms of changes in trace elements (TEs) and the effect of antioxidants (melatonin [MLT] and [GL]) in counteracting these effects. We used adult male Wistar albino rats with a mean weight of 250-300 g and divided the rats into eight groups. The groups were subjected to an ELF-EMF that was applied with a high-voltage line for 8 hours/day for 26 days (Groups I, II, and III) or 52 days (Groups V, VI, and VII).

The evaluation of ectodermal dysplasia cases was made by clinical examination and examination of the jaw and facial areas radiologically and on cone-beam 3-dimensional dental tomography (CBCT) images.
Material And Methods: In the 36 cases evaluated in the study, typical clinical findings of pure hypohidrotic ectodermal displasia (HED) were seen, such as missing teeth, dry skin, hair and nail disorders.
Background: The objective of this study is to assess the index of decayed, missing and filled teeth (DMF-T), habit of brushing teeth, and the microbiological agents accumulating on the children's toothbrushes for 4 weeks and response of these agents to disinfection via a chlorhexidine solution, then compare those results with the education and income levels of the children's parents.
Method: Included in the study were 187 children (96 in the control group and 91 in the experiment group - chlorhexidine) chosen randomly from 600 kindergarten children whose ages ranged from 24 months to 72 months. The children selected had not taken any antibiotics, antimicotics for three months and dental treatments during this trial.
