Assessment of the effects of citric acid and EDTA on cell viability of cultured human periodontal ligament cells attached to simulated avulsed permanent tooth using a spectrofluorometer-An in vitro study.

Background/aim: The delayed re-implantation of avulsed teeth results in ankylosis, followed by replacement resorption and eventual loss of the tooth within 2-4 years. To prevent tooth loss, the root surface can be etched with acid to expose the collagen fibers present in the cementum layer. This process facilitates normal reattachment and regeneration of the periodontal ligament.

Comparative Evaluation of Ozonoid Olive Oil and Calcium Hydroxide as an Indirect Pulp Capping Agent in Primary Mandibular Second Molar: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate clinical and radiographical success of ozonoid olive oil as an indirect pulp capping (IPC) agent in primary mandibular second molar when compared to calcium hydroxide and to evaluate the antimicrobial efficacy of ozonoid olive oil on and .

Materials And Methods: A split-mouth randomized controlled trial was conducted on 30 primary mandibular second molars in 15 children of age 5-9 years with deep dentinal carious lesion. Teeth were randomly allocated to two groups of 15 each.

A Rare Clinical Variant of Oromandibular Limb Hypogenesis Syndrome Type I B.

Aglossia is a rare congenital malformation that often occurs as an isolated disorder or is observed in association with other congenital deformities, particularly limb defects. We present a unique case of a 7-year-old girl with aglossia, hypodactyli, rudimentary ears, retrognathic and V-shaped mandible. Her parental history revealed intrauterine exposure of medicines.

Oral mucormycosis in an 18-month-old child: a rare case report with a literature review.

Oral mucormycosis is a fungal infection observed mainly in elderly immunocompromised patients. In rare instances, the disease occurs in healthy individuals and those patients that are below preschool age. Although this condition mainly involves the maxilla, it may also manifest in any part of the oral cavity based on the source of infection.
