Analysis of pulp histological response to pulpotomy performed with white mineral trioxide aggregate mixed with 2.25% sodium hypochlorite gel in humans: a randomized controlled clinical trial.

This study aimed to evaluate the histological success of pulpotomy in primary molars using white mineral trioxide aggregate (WMTA) mixed with 2.25% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) gel and to evaluate in vitro its physical and chemical properties. The study had a clinical stage and an in-vitro stage.

Rectal Sedation With Ketamine and Midazolam in the Management of Uncooperative Children During Dental Treatment: A Case Series and Method Description.

Background In pediatric dentistry, sedation aims to eliminate anxiety to facilitate the completion of dental procedures. Sedation in children is a multidimensional field that includes the child, parents/guardians, and the health care team. The rectal route is generally painless, making it suitable for children who are afraid of needles.

The efficacy of the dental Water Jet, orthodontic, and conventional toothbrushes in plaque removal around orthodontic braces in adolescents: A randomized controlled trial.

Objectives: Orthodontic treatment improves both masticatory function and the aspects of facial esthetics through the correct alignment of the teeth. If oral hygiene is neglected during fixed orthodontic treatment, it may lead to plaque accumulation and gingivitis. The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to evaluate the effectiveness of the dental Water Jet (DWJ), and orthodontic toothbrush (O-TH) in removing dental plaque around the orthodontic braces compared to conventional toothbrush (C-TH) in adolescents.

Knowledge, perceptions, and behavior regarding children's oral health among Syrian pediatricians: a cross-sectional study.

Background: Oral health has a direct impact on health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Hence, general health and oral health cannot be separated. Pediatricians play a pivotal role in providing primary care for infants and are the first to interact with them since birth.

Evaluation of antibacterial effects of different intracanal medicaments on Enterococcus faecalis in primary teeth: An in vitro study.

Objectives: Successful endodontic therapy is based on the reduction of infecting bacteria by cleaning, shaping, and disinfecting of the root canal system, thus the use of intracanal dressing is necessary for optimal success of root canal treatment. This study was designed to evaluate the effect of chitosan and propolis as intracanal medicaments against Enterococcus faecalis compared to calcium hydroxide in primary root canals.

Material And Methods: Ninety-six extracted primary second molars were collected.
