Novel pain assessment tool specific for pulp symptoms to aid diagnosis.
Int Endod J

Division of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics, Centre for Dental Education and Research, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, India.
Aim: Although many pain assessment tools exist, none are specific to the relatively unique presentation of pulpal pain. The aim of this study was to develop and validate a novel pain assessment tool based on pulp symptoms.
Methodology: A preliminary list of items best-describing pulpitis was developed based on deductive and inductive approaches and the preliminary tool was piloted (n = 80).
Management of an Open Apex Using a Platelet-Rich Fibrin Membrane as an Internal Matrix and Mineral Trioxide Aggregate as an Apical Barrier: A Case Report.

Apexification is a crucial procedure for achieving apical healing in non-vital teeth with open apices. Traditionally, calcium hydroxide has been used for this purpose, but it has significant drawbacks, including prolonged treatment duration, increased risk of root fracture, and the potential for porous barrier formation. Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) has emerged as a superior alternative due to its biocompatibility, faster setting time, and better sealing properties.

The present case report describes the endodontic treatment of a type III B dens invaginatus (DI) in a three-rooted mandibular second molar since the invagination invades the root and extends apically. Clinical and cone-beam computed tomography examination of the mandibular second molar showed a broadened coronal morphology, DI, a third root, periapical radiolucency, and compression of a distal root canal by the invagination, which developed an atypical semilunar shape. The tooth was diagnosed with pulpal necrosis, symptomatic apical, and peri-invagination periodontitis.

While the impact of infections caused by various microbes and host effector molecules in pulpal and periapical diseases is widely recognized, disease susceptibility and progression are also influenced by the dynamic interaction between host genetic factors and environmental influences. Apical periodontitis occurs as an inflammatory response to microorganisms present in the root canals of infected teeth.

Article Synopsis
- Tricalcium silicate (TCS)-based bioactive cements show potential for endodontic applications due to their hydraulic properties, but traditional options face challenges like poor handling and limited osteoinductivity.
- A new injectable biocomposite made from TCS, α-tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP), and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) was developed to improve these properties, achieving over 93% injectability and better anti-washout capabilities.
- The addition of 10% α-TCP enhances compressive strength and accelerates setting time, while also promoting cell viability and osteogenesis through increased ALP activity and collagen production, making this biocomposite a promising candidate for dental applications.
