Variations in Root Canal Morphology of Mandibular Incisors in a North Indian SubPopulation: A Retrospective Cone-Beam Computed Tomography Analysis.

Background: There is a high failure rate of endodontic treatment in the mandibular incisors due to insufficient knowledge of the morphology.

Aim: The aim of this study was to analyze the root canal morphology in mandibular incisor teeth in the North Indian subpopulation to improve the outcome of endodontic treatment.

Setting And Design: A cross-sectional study was conducted at the OPD of a tertiary care institute.

Buccal versus buccal palatal infiltration for pulpal anesthesia using 2% lidocaine and 4% articaine: A randomized controlled trial.

Background: The inability in achieving complete pulpal anesthesia with standard buccal infiltration especially in cases with SIP used for maxillary teeth. The study aimed to compare the anesthetic efficacy of buccal and buccal plus palatal infiltration technique using 2% lidocaine and 4% articaine in permanent maxillary first molars with the diagnosis of symptomatic irreversible pulpitis (SIP).

Material And Method: One hundred and twenty-three patients with clinical diagnosis of SIP, aged 18-50 years were randomly allocated to three treatment groups (N = 41).

Comparative evaluation of cleaning efficiency of single file NiTi rotary system during root canal treatment procedure - A scanning electron microscope study.

Background: Optimal biomechanical preparation, thorough irrigation, proper disinfection, and finally, well-sealed obturation is a must to attain definitive success in root canal procedure. Proper preparation of the root canal is all the more imperative to establish a hermetic apical seal with adequately placed filling materials. The present study was conducted for comparing the Cleaning Efficiency of F360 system and the WaveOne Gold (WOG) system of rotary NiTi instrumentation for a root canal.

Incidence of postoperative pain after using single continuous, single reciprocating, and full sequence continuous rotary file system: a prospective randomized clinical trial.

Background: Extrusion of debris is a major factor that results in postoperative pain during root canal treatment with various instruments and instrumentation techniques. Therefore, instrumentation techniques that extrude minimal debris into the periapical area while reducing pain are desirable. This study aimed to compare the incidence of postoperative pain and intake of analgesic medication (frequency and quantity) after endodontic treatment of mandibular posterior teeth using two single files and full-sequence continuous rotary systems with different kinematic motions.

Paresthesia diagnosed using cone-beam computed tomography: a case report.

Various dental procedures, such as injection administration, surgical treatment, and endodontic treatment, can cause injury to the nerves. The most commonly injured nerves are the inferior alveolar and lingual nerves. This can manifest as altered sensation to the area of innervation of the injured nerve, such as the lower lip, chin, teeth, tongue, and mucosa.

Incidence of dentinal defects during root canal preparation with hand files using different irrigants: An study.

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to compare the incidence of dentinal defects during root canal preparation with hand files using different irrigants.

Materials And Methods: A total of 120 extracted mandibular incisors were randomly divided into onecontrol group and five experimental groups ( = 20) depending on the irrigant used. Biomechanical preparation was not done in control group.

Role of casein phosphopeptide amorphous calcium phosphate in remineralization of white spot lesions and inhibition of Streptococcus mutans?

Introduction: To promote the remineralization by ionic exchange mechanism instead of invasive techniques many remineralizing agents can be used.

Objective: To evaluate the remineralization effects of casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) on white spot lesions (WSLs) and its inhibitory effect on Streptococcus mutans colonization.

Materials And Methods: The study group consisted of 60 subjects exhibiting at least 1-WSL.

Remineralization of early enamel lesions using casein phosphopeptide amorphous calcium Phosphate: an ex-vivo study.

Objective: This study aimed at qualitatively evaluating the remineralization potential of casein phosphopeptide amorphous calcium phosphate on artificial early enamel lesions in an ex-vivo scenario by observing the treated tooth surface using a scanning electron microscope (SEM).

Materials And Methods: This randomized study was conducted on 10 subjects undergoing orthodontic treatment with premolar extraction as part of their treatment. Artificial white lesions were created with the application of 37% phosphoric acid for 20 mins.
