Background: Bone debris generated during site preparation is generally evacuated with irrigation; here, we evaluated whether retention of this autologous material improved the rate of peri-implant bone formation.
Methods: In 25 rats, a miniature implant system composed of an osseo-shaping tool and a tri-oval-shaped implant was compared against a conventional drill and round implant system. A split-mouth design was used, and fresh extraction sockets served as implant sites. Histology/histomorphometry, immunohistochemistry, and microcomputed tomography (μCT) imaging were performed immediately after implant placement, and on post-surgery days 3, 7, 14, and 28.
Results: Compared with a conventional drill design, the osseo-shaping tool produced a textured osteotomy surface and viable bone debris that was retained in the peri-implant environment. Proliferating osteoprogenitor cells, identified by PCNA and Runx2 expression, contributed to faster peri-implant bone formation. Although all implants osseointegrated, sites prepared with the osseo-shaping tool showed evidence of new peri-implant bone sooner than controls.
Conclusion: Bone debris produced by an osseo-shaping tool directly contributed to faster peri-implant bone formation and implant osseointegration.

Odontogenic maxillary sinusitis (OMS) is a condition presenting to both the dental and otolaryngologic practitioner. Common causes of OMS include dental implants, displacement of a maxillary tooth root tip during extraction, migration of materials used in root canal therapy or graft material in sinus lift procedure. A 68-year-old male patient presented with complaints of repeated episodes of sinusitis for about 3 months which was not responding to conservative management.

Background: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a severe inflammatory disorder characterized by acute respiratory failure, alveolar barrier dysfunction, edema, and dysregulated alveolar macrophage-mediated pulmonary inflammation. Despite advancements in treatment strategies, the mortality rate in patients with ARDS remains high, ranging from 40-60 %. Current approaches are limited to supportive care, necessitating the exploration of effective therapeutic options such as suppressing broad inflammatory responses.

Objectives: To investigate the effectiveness of instrumentation using Protaper Next (PN; Dentsply Sirona, Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland) and Waveone Gold (WG; Dentsply Sirona, Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland) systems on the area of untouched surface (US), accumulated hard tissue debris (AHTD), and the filling ability of two obturation techniques on the volume percentage (vol%) of voids within C-shaped root canals of mandibular first premolars.
Methods: A total of 64 mandibular first premolars with C-shaped canals were scanned, matched, and subsequently assigned to two shaping groups (n = 32): PN and WG. After instrumentation, the specimens were randomly allocated into two obturation subgroups (n = 16): continuous wave compaction (CWC) and single-cone (SC) techniques.

Unlabelled: Endodontic failures are usually the result of technical errors compromising the proper endodontic procedures required to control and prevent periradicular infections. Among these errors, the extrusion of materials through the apical foramen has been associated with periapical inflammation, postoperative pain, tissue necrosis, delayed periapical healing and long-term failure.
Aim: To compare the debris extruded through the apical foramen when different glide path files are used prior to endodontic instrumentation with the WaveOne Gold Primary file.

Derived from monocytes in the bone marrow, macrophages are large, innate immune cells that play a major role in clearing dead cells, debris, tumor cells, and foreign pathogens. The phagocytic capacity of monocytes versus macrophages is a concept that is not well understood. Here, we aim to examine a difference in the phagocytosis of monocytes versus macrophages, specifically M1/M2 macrophages, against various opsonized red cells using a modified and updated version of the established monocyte monolayer assay (MMA).
