Evaluation of stress generation in core build up-material of mutilated primary teeth: a comparative finite element analysis between BioFlx, stainless steel and zirconia crowns.

Stainless-steel crowns (SSCs) are the most durable restorative option for deciduous teeth, although they are unsightly. However, prefabricated zirconia crowns (ZCs) look more pleasant but require substantial dental preparation. Recently, BioFlx crowns have been introduced as a white-colored alternative to SSCs, providing both flexibility and aesthetics.

Antimicrobial Efficacy of , , and Chlorhexidine Mouthwashes on and in Children: A Comparative Study.

Background: Herbal medicines are both promotive and preventive in inhibiting dental caries. Most commonly used natural plant extracts like mango () and pudina () as an entire or together are scientifically well proven to be safe and effective against various oral health problems, especially in preventing dental caries and periodontal diseases.

Aim: The present study aims to comparatively evaluate the effect of , , and Chlorhexidine (CHX) (0.

Comparative Evaluation of Antibacterial Efficacy and Remineralization Potential of Acidulated Phosphate Fluoride Gel with Herbal Dental Gel Containing and An Study.

Aim: The aim of the study is to evaluate and compare the antibacterial efficacy and remineralization potential of acidulated phosphate fluoride (APF) gel with herbal dental gel containing and

Materials And Methods: Ethanolic extracts of and were prepared. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of these extracts were determined against and using the resazurin method and agar plate streaking method, respectively. The herbal dental gel was formulated, and its cytotoxicity was evaluated using an 3-(4,5-dimethythiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay.

Comparing the Biofilm Removal Capacity of NaOCl, Povidone-Iodine, Chlorhexidine, Curcumin, and Triphala as Endodontic Irrigants.

Background And Aim: A sessile multicellular organism that is immersed in a self-produced matrix of extracellular polymeric substances and has its cells firmly attached to a surface is referred to as a microbial biofilm. When it comes to pulp and periradicular pathosis, biofilms are crucial. To reduce the number of microorganisms in the root canal and assist in treating periapical pathosis, endodontic therapy must include decontamination of the system of tooth root canals through biomechanical preparation and irrigation of the root canal.

Evaluation of Presence of in Root Canals of Deciduous Molars with Necrotic Pulp by Agar Culture and Polymerase Chain Reaction.

Objective: To assess the presence of in root canals of deciduous molars with necrotic pulp by agar culture and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay.

Materials And Methods: This is an experimental study, where a total of 120 endodontic samples were taken from deciduous molars with necrotic pulps. The presence of was assessed by culture, using Enterococcus confirmatory agar, and by PCR assay.
