Green synthesis, characterization, and antibacterial activity of based silver nanoparticles.

Due to their enhanced and unique physicochemical characteristics, such as their minimal dimensions, large surface area compared to their mass and increased reactivity, nanomaterials hold promise in the field of antibacterial therapy. The aim of this study is to evaluate the method for Green Synthesis, Characterization of pulp, rind, and seed-based Silver Nanoparticles, and study its antibacterial activity against common oral microorganisms. Green synthesis of nanoparticles was formulated using the extract from the rind, seed, and pulp of and silver nitrate extract.

Evaluation of scanning accuracy for two commercially available intraoral scanners in reproducing orthodontic bracket dimensions.

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the scanning accuracy of two different intra-oral scanners- MEDIT i500 and TRIOS 3 shape in reproducing orthodontic bracket dimensions.

Materials And Methods: This in vivo cross-sectional study comprised seven subjects with a full complement of permanent dentition without third molars. Complete arch scanning was carried out with two intraoral scanners, such as MEDIT i500, TRIOS 3 shape, after bonding with brackets.

antimicrobial and cytotoxic activity of Neem and Kirata herbal formulation mediated Silver nanoparticles.

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) gain great interest among noble metal nanoparticles due to their broad applications in medicine, dentistry, drug delivery, tissue and tumour imaging, biolabeling, and biosensing. The antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, and antiparasitic activity of AgNPs is well documented in the literature. This study aimed to determine the antimicrobial and cytotoxic activity of Neem and Kirata herbal formulation-mediated silver nanoparticles against oral biofilm.

anti-inflammatory activity of silymarin/hydroxyapatite/chitosan nanocomposites and its cytotoxic effect using brine shrimp lethality assay.

Silymarin, a bioactive compound, is one of the most prominent drugs used in liver diseases. Chitosan and hydroxyapatite (HAP) are the major materials used employed in many biomedical processes like drug delivery, osteointegration, etc. The nanoparticles and nanocomposites are advanced materials with many biomedical applications in diagnosis and therapeutics.

Antimicrobial activity of silymarin mediated zinc oxide and hydroxy apatite nanoparticles against oral pathogens.

The nanoparticles such as hydroxyapatite, zinc oxide, titanium dioxide and zirconium nanoparticles have application in dentistry. Therefore, it is of interest to document the antimicrobial activity of silymarin mediated zinc oxide and hydroxy apatite nanoparticles against oral pathogens. Hence, we synthesized hydroxyapatie and zinc oxide nanoparticles with silymarin and characterized by UV-visible spectrophotometer.

Can palatal depth influence the buccolingual inclination of molars? A cone beam computed tomography-based retrospective evaluation.

Objective: To interpret a correlation between buccolingual inclination of molars and palatal depth in hyperdivergent patients and to identify importance of determining inclination of molars in assessing transverse discrepancies (as skeletal or dental).

Design: This was a retrospective cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) study.

Setting: The study was conducted in the Department of Orthodontics, Saveetha Dental College and Hospital, Tamil Nadu, India.
