To determine the expression of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) in refractory periapical periodontitis and analyze the relationship between BTK and bone resorption in refractory periapical periodontitis. The mechanism of bone resorption is also discussed. The OneArray Plus expression microarray was used to screen for genes related to refractory periapical periodontitis. Real-time PCR was used to detect the expression of BTK in refractory periapical periodontitis tissues. A model of periapical periodontitis was established by sealing E.faecalis into the pulp of rats. To establish a model of E.faecalis LTA infection of osteoclasts, the relationship between BTK and bone destruction during refractory periapical periodontitis was analyzed. OneArray Plus expression microarray results showed that we found that the expression of 1787 genes in the two samples was different. After validating these samples, we found that BTK was closely related to refractory periapical periodontitis. The results showed that the expression of BTK in refractory periapical periodontitis tissues was higher than that in normal tissues. Immunohistochemistry, enzyme histochemistry and real-time PCR showed that the BTK expression curve in the experimental model resembled a reverse V shape from week 1 to week 4. Osteoclasts were cultured in vitro and treated with E. faecalis LTA. The expression of BTK in the E. faecalis model was greater than that in the control group. BTK played an important role in the progression of refractory periapical periodontitis.

Clinical and imaging aspects associated with persistent apical periodontitis: subsides for the treatment decision-making process.
Clin Oral Investig
January 2025
Department of Restorative Dentistry, School of Dentistry of Ribeirão Preto, University of São Paulo (USP), Ribeirão Preto, SP, Brazil.
Objectives: To evaluate cases of persistent apical periodontitis (PAP) and what are the imaging and clinical aspects that could be considered in the PAP diagnosis and in their treatment decision-making process.
Methodology: 423 patients with apical periodontitis at the time of non-surgical root canal treatment (NSRCT) were followed-up for at least 1 year. Periapical radiographic images were used to compare and determine periapical status at each time using the PAI scoring system.
Apical horizontal incision with periosteum graft wall technique for periodontal regeneration: A case study.
Clin Adv Periodontics
January 2025
Private Practice, Florence, Italy.
Background: The periosteum consists of an outer fibrous layer and an inner cellular layer, where bone cells reside. Hence, it has been suggested that applying periosteum to a periodontal defect may help new bone formation. The purpose of this case study is to present the clinical and radiographic outcomes of a vestibular regenerative approach and the application of a connective tissue graft (CTG) with periosteum to improve the periodontal prognosis of a pathologically migrated hopeless tooth with an endo-periodontal lesion (EPL).

Objectives: Apical periodontitis (AP) is an inflammatory immune response in periapical tissues caused by microbial infections. Failure of root canal treatment or delayed healing is often due to intracanal or extra-radicular bacteria. However, beyond microbial factors, the patient's systemic health can significantly influence the progression and healing of AP.

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of chronic consumption of two sugar-sweetened carbonated soft drinks - one containing caffeine (Coca-Cola®) and one without (Sprite®) - on the progression of periapical lesions and the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines in rats.
Methodology: Twelve Wistar rats were divided into three groups (n = 4): Control group, Coca-Cola group and Sprite group. The rats in Coca-Cola and Sprite groups were given ad libitum access to their respective soft drinks for 3 months, while the Control group received filtered water.
Evaluation of the effect of different irrigation solutions used in regenerative endodontic treatment of necrotic molar teeth with open apex on postoperative pain- randomized clinical trial.

Department of Pedodontics, Faculty of Dentistry, Erciyes University, 38039, Kayseri, Türkiye.
Objectives: This study evaluates the effect of different irrigation solutions for postoperative pain in the regenerative endodontic treatments (RET) of necrotic teeth with open apex.
Materials And Methods: This study included necrotic, deeply carious lower molars of 42 patients. Access cavities of the teeth were opened and working lengths were measured at the first visit.
