Background: To evaluate the incidence of dentinal microcracks formation after root canal shaping procedures with HyFlex EDM and Vortex Blue rotary systems comparing with that of hand instrumentation using micro-computed tomography.
Material And Methods: Mandibular first molar teeth (n=60) having 50 to 200mesial root curvature were scanned using high resolution micro-CT imaging before root canal preparation to identify the presence of dentinal defects. Post-instrumentation cross-sectional images were taken and increased number and type of root defects were assessed and recorded. The data was statistically analysed by using chi-square test and McNemar's test at a significance level of 5%.
Results: HyFlex EDM has shown greater increase in post instrumentation dentinal defects. Both rotary systems exhibited increased dentinal defects formation at coronal, middle regions which is statistically significant (=0.042) when compared to apical region.
Conclusions: HyFlex EDM has shown greater increase in post instrumentation dentinal defects followed by Vortex Blue rotary system and hand instrumentation resulted minimal defects. Craze lines, dentinal microcracks, micro-computed tomography, nickel-titanium files, root canal preparation.

The aims of the present case report are to describe the non-surgical management in addition to hyaluronic acid application of two gingival recessions with cleft and to perform a narrative review on the newest evidence of non-surgical treatment of gingival recessions. A 47-year-old female patient with dentine hypersensitivity and pain during brushing has type 1 gingival recession with red Stillman's cleft on 1.4 and 1.

BACKGROUND Internal root resorption (IRR) is a rare dental condition characterized by the progressive resorption of dentin within the root canal, often resulting from infection, trauma, or orthodontic treatment. When IRR progresses to perforation, it creates a communication pathway with periodontal tissues, necessitating effective endodontic therapy and perforation repair. Bioceramic sealers, known for their biocompatibility and flowability, have emerged as a promising alternative to traditional materials for filling and sealing the root canal system.

Periodontal disease is a major contributor to tooth loss worldwide in adults. Particularly, periodontal bone defect is a common clinical condition, yet current therapeutic strategies exhibit limited effectiveness. Recently, natural bone graft materials have attracted considerable interest for enhancing bone defect repair due to their superior biocompatibility and osteogenic capabilities.

Unlabelled: Guided bone regeneration (GBR) is an alternative treatment for craniofacial bone defects reconstruction through membrane barrier adaptation, such as demineralized dentin material membrane (DDMM). DDMM is used as a substitute for GBR material, which aligns with Green Economy principles, it has a good biological osteoinductive and osteoconductive effects, and its structure resembles bones. The balance of bone remodeling when experiencing craniofacial defects will be altered and allow changes to resorption activity, so the mechanisms of osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption are vital.

Purpose: This systematic review aims to consolidate existing genetic and clinical data on non-syndromic dentinogenesis imperfecta (DI) to enhance understanding of its etiology.
Methods: Electronic databases were searched for genetic familial linkage studies published in English without time restrictions. Genetic familial linkage studies that reported cases of Shield's classifications: DI-II, DI-III or DD-II were included.
