Knowledge, Attitude, and Perception Among Endodontists Toward Regenerative Endodontics: A Cross-sectional Survey of Four Indian Universities.

Background: Regenerative endodontics is a rapidly developing field in dentistry. However, the regenerative endodontic procedures are not familiar to many clinicians in India.

Aim: This survey aimed at assessing the level of knowledge, attitude, and perception (KAP) among endodontists toward regenerative endodontics.

Finite element analysis of immature teeth filled with MTA, Biodentine and Bioaggregate.

Background And Objective: Finite element based simulation has emerged as a powerful tool to analyse the tooth strength and its fracture characteristics. The aim of this study is to compare and evaluate the fracture resistance of immature teeth reinforcement with MTA, Biodentine and Bioaggregate as an apical plug and backfill material using Finite Element Method.

Methods: A 3D finite element analysis model was generated using a simulated immature maxillary central incisor.

Comparative evaluation of antibacterial activity of total-etch and self-etch adhesive systems: An ex vitro study.

Aim: The aim of this ex vivo study was to compare the antibacterial activity of total-etch and self-etch adhesive systems against Streptococcus mutans, Lactobacillus acidophilus, and Actinomyces viscosus through disk diffusion method.

Materials And Methods: The antibacterial effects of Single Bond (SB) and Adper Prompt (AP) and aqueous solution of chlorhexidine 0.2% (positive control) were tested against standard strain of S.
