This report highlights a rare occurrence of inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) injury resulting from calcium hydroxide extrusion during endodontic treatment. The patient experienced severe pain and paresthesia in the lower right lip following root canal treatment due to the inadvertent overflow of calcium hydroxide into the IAN canal. No surgical intervention was performed, and the patient received non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesics and vitamin B complex injections to manage the symptoms. At 6 months, complete resorption of the root canal material occurred, resulting in further reduction in paresthesia. After a 2-year follow-up, the complete disappearance of paresthesia occurred. The importance of the preoperative radiographs is highlighted. The lack of radiographic assessment at the patient's request led to calcium hydroxide overflow.

Effectiveness of phosphate binders on mortality and cardiovascular disease in end-stage renal disease patients with hyperphosphatemia: a multicenter real-world cohort study.

Background: Uncontrolled hyperphosphatemia in end stage renal disease (ESRD) increases the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), bone disorders, and premature mortality. Randomized controlled trials show reduced CVD risk of non-calcium-based phosphate-binders (NCBPBs) compared to CBPBs although evidence from real world data is less consistent. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of NCBPBs, CBPBs, to no phosphate-binder (PB) on mortality and cardiovascular disease in Thai hyperphosphatemic ESRDs.

Objective: To compare the efficiency of four methods for removing calcium hydroxide in root canals.
Methods: 80 mandibular single-tube permanent premolars were instrumented to ProTaper Universal F4. The teeth were split in two lengthwise, standardized grooves, and depressions were prepared on the wall of the root canal and filled with calcium hydroxide.
