Trauma or injury to the dental pulp causes inflammation. This study compared the proteome of healthy pulp with inflamed pulp and traumatic pulp to identify the differentially expressed proteins in the diseased state. Five participants were grouped based on the pulpal status of the teeth: healthy, inflamed, or traumatic pulp.

Materials And Methods: Three types of silicate-based cements were used: ProRoot MTA (PMTA), OrthoMTA (OMTA), and RetroMTA (RMTA). Mixed cement was placed into polyethylene molds with lengths of 2 and 4 mm.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the healing outcomes of horizontal intra-alveolar root fractures treated with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA).
- During the review of patient records from a dental hospital in Korea, 19 out of 22 cases showed significant healing after a minimum follow-up of 3 months.
- Findings indicated that MTA is an effective filling material, as 89.5% of treated teeth exhibited various types of healing, making it a promising option for such dental fractures.
A molar-incisor malformation (MIM) is a newly reported type of dental anomaly that involves a characteristic root malformation in permanent first molars and deciduous second molars and a crown defect in permanent central incisors. This case report describes a nonsurgical root canal treatment of a MIM-affected molar by aid of a reformatted axial view of the tooth cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). A MIM-affected molar has calcified canal orifices and a few immature accessory furcal canals.
