The decompression technique can effectively reduce the size of large periapical lesions, minimize tissue damage, and enhance surgical outcomes. This conservative approach allows for better management of extensive lesions, potentially improving patient recovery and decreasing the need for more invasive procedures.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the potential of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSC) in regenerating pulp-dentin complex in immature teeth suffering from irreversible pulpitis.
  • An in-vivo randomized controlled trial was conducted with 32 mandibular premolars from dogs, comparing treatment effects of UC-MSC against positive controls (untreated) and negative controls (completely extirpated pulp).
  • Results showed that teeth treated with UC-MSC exhibited normal pulp tissue and no inflammation, while those without treatment presented necrosis and inflammation, indicating successful regeneration of the pulp-dentin complex using UC-MSC.

Background: Electrochemical disinfection of the root canal system (RCS) is introduced as an alternative to conventional irrigation. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of depotphoresis method in the disinfection of accessible and inaccessible RCSs.

Materials And Methods: In this comparative study disinfection of Enterococcus -infected RCS using two methods, (1) depotphoresis and (2) sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) irrigation plus passive ultrasonic agitation (PUA) took place on 40 extracted maxillary anterior teeth.

Aim: Revascularisation is a therapeutic approach for treatment of immature teeth with necrotic pulp. The conventional protocol includes application of triple antibiotic paste (TAP). The present study aimed to compare the efficacy of propolis and TAP as intra-canal medicaments for revascularisation of immature teeth in dogs.
