This study compared the sealing ability of RoekoSeal, AH Plus and EndoRez in dog premolars after post-space preparation and exposure to the oral environment. Seventy-four root canals were cleaned, shaped and filled with gutta-percha and one of the sealers. Post spaces were prepared with about 4-mm root canal filling remaining in the apex. Teeth were sealed for 24 h for sealer setting. Teeth were exposed to the oral environment for 45 days. The dogs were killed and root canals were soaked in India ink and sealed for 96 h. The teeth were cleared, and leakage was measured under stereoscopy. The Kruskal-Wallis test was used for analysis. A significant difference was found between EndoRez and RoekoSeal groups (P < 0.05). EndoRez had lower leakage values than RoekoSeal after 45-day exposure to the oral environment. No statistic difference was found in the comparison of AH Plus with the other sealers under study.

A Novel Team-Based Approach to Oral Diagnosis Education: Case of the Week.

Eur J Dent Educ

January 2025

Department of Orthodontics and Pediatric and Community Dentistry, College of Dental Medicine, University of Sharjah, Sharjah, UAE.

Background: Traditional oral diagnosis education often relies on passive lectures and individual case assessments. Team-based learning (TBL) offers an interactive alternative, but implementation challenges can exist. The 'Case of the Week (COW)' method presents a potentially modified TBL approach for oral diagnosis education.

Background: The brain is shielded from the peripheral circulation by central nervous system (CNS) barriers, comprising the well-known blood-brain barrier (BBB) and the less recognized blood-cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) barrier located within the brain ventricles. The gut microbiota represents a diverse and dynamic population of microorganisms that can influence the health of the host, including the development of neurological disorders like Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the intricate mechanisms governing the interplay between the gut and brain remain elusive, and the means by which gut-derived signals traverse the CNS barriers remain unclear.
