Stem cells are considered as the principal source of differentiated cells. In the past few years, the research on the stem cell in various fields had shown success, but the stem cell-based therapies in the dentistry had confined to a particular extent. The present case report was aimed to evaluate the efficacy of stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) in the management of a large periapical lesion.

Recently, many experiments have been conducted to study the potentiality of stem cells in the tissue regeneration. We report two cases treated utilizing stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) in the management of periapical lesions in permanent teeth.

- The hormonal fingerprint, determined by the ratio of the lengths of the 2nd (index) and 4th (ring) fingers, serves as a potential biological marker for evaluating oral health issues like caries and malocclusion, particularly in relation to Body Mass Index (BMI).
- A study involving 300 children aged 10-15 aimed to investigate how hormonal fingerprints could aid in diagnosing dental conditions and their association with BMI, employing various measurements and assessments.
- Findings indicated that a lower 2D:4D ratio (less than 1) was linked to higher rates of malocclusion, while higher BMI values correlated with normal occlusion conditions, emphasizing the potential of hormonal fingerprints in dentistry.
