Impact of E-Learning and Predictable Practical Learning Expectations During the Covid-19 Pandemic on Dental Graduates.

Background: Dental education is facing hitherto unheard-of difficulties as a result of the COVID-19 epidemic, which calls for quick adaption to remote learning methods. The purpose of this study was to look at how dental graduates were affected by the COVID-19 epidemic and the effects of e-learning and predictable practical learning expectations.

Methods: Data from dental college graduates were gathered using a mixed-methods approach that included questionnaires and interviews.

Optimizing Root Canal Therapy: An In Vitro Comparative Study of Innovative File Systems on Mandibular Premolar Fracture Resistance.

Introduction And Aim:  Root canal therapy is a vital procedure for saving teeth by removing infection and cleaning the complex root canal system. However, a delicate balance exists between thorough cleaning and preserving tooth strength. The study aims to evaluate the instrumentation effect of three innovative file systems, XP-endo® shaper, Reciproc®, and Self-adjusting file (SAF) on fracture resistance of mandibular premolars.

Comparative assessment of titanium-prepared platelet-rich fibrin, EndoSequence root repair material, and calcium hydroxide as pulpotomy agents in permanent teeth with irreversible pulpitis: A randomized controlled trial.

Context: Pulpotomy is a procedure in which part of an exposed vital pulp is removed, usually as a means of preserving the vitality and function of the remaining part.

Aim: The aim is to compare the effectiveness of Dycal (CH), EndoSequence, and Titanium-prepared platelet-rich fibrin with EndoSequence (T-PRF) as pulpotomy agents in mature permanent molars with irreversible pulpitis.

Settings And Design: Sixty permanent mandibular molars with carious exposure and symptoms of irreversible pulpitis were randomly allocated to three groups.

Evaluation of threshold response and appropriate electrode placement site for electric pulp testing in fluorosed anterior teeth: An in vivo study.

Background: Accurate diagnosis is key to success. Diagnosing the pulpal status in varied clinical situations poses a challenge to the clinician. Electric pulp test (EPT) is one of the valuable attempts in evaluating the sensibility of pulp tissue.

Comparative Evaluation of Antimicrobial Effect of Three Endodontic Sealers with and Without Antibiotics - An In-vitro Study.

Introduction: Root canal sealers with good sealing ability and antimicrobial activity are desired to entomb the surviving microorganisms.

Aim: Aim of the present study is to evaluate the antimicrobial effect of different sealers mixed with antibiotics.

Materials And Methods: Sixty extracted premolars were taken and were cut coronally & apically such that 7mm of tooth specimen was prepared.

Management of an Unusual Maxillary Canine: A Rare Entity.

Clinicians need to have intimate knowledge and thorough understanding of both pulp chamber and root canal anatomy. They should be aware of possibility of anatomical variations in the root canal system during endodontic treatment. Maxillary canines usually have single root and root canal but rarely may have single root with two root canals.
