Filter by:Dental caries is one of the most prevalent chronic diseases in people worldwide. Traditional clinical treatment of dental decay has developed on the basis of the removal of carious tissues with high-speed handpieces and slow-rotating instruments, inducing pain, disturbing sounds, and vibrations. In addition, this method comprises the tooth structure by removing both "caries-affected dentin" and "caries-infected dentin". The use of the chemo-mechanical caries removal (CMCR) method is one of the main implementations of the minimal intervention dentistry idea accepted in the last ten years. It includes the selective removal of "caries-infected dentin" while preserving the healthy "caries-affected dentin" that has the ability to remineralize. The CMCR method differs from the traditional surgical method in that it selectively removes carious dentin. Therefore, it is less destructive and less painful, thereby promoting a positive attitude towards visiting dentists. A novel agent for the CMCR method named "BRIX3000®" by the laboratory Brix Medical Science has been released onto the dental market in 2016. It is a papain-based gel derived from latex and fruits of green papaya (Carica Papaya) that works as a chemical debridement with a unique technology called Encapsulating Buffer Emulsion (EPE). Investigations are required to evaluate and compare the outcomes of two CMCR agents, "BRIX3000®" and "Carie-CareTM," versus the traditional surgical methods. Therefore, the present study aims to perform a clinical and microbiological evaluation of caries removal using "BRIX3000®" and "Carie-CareTM" versus the traditional surgical methods in primary molars among children in Jeddah city, Saudi Arabia.
The aim of this study was evaluating the clinical effectiveness of the hand instrument in conjunction with sectional matrix when applying lateral forces at the contact area during curing to achieve large and tight proximal contacts in posterior teeth.
Optimal anesthesia is an essential requirement for successful dentoalveolar intervention.To achieve this goal,different anesthetic agents and techniques are available. Inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) remains the most commonly used anesthetic technique. However, after the worldwide approval of articaine, a relatively new local anesthetic with enhanced tissue diffusion properties, many studies on healthy volunteers have investigated the anesthetic efficacy of buccal articaine infiltration and IANB in the mandibular posterior teeth and reported comparable results. Infiltration anesthesia is technically more straightforward, less stressful to the patient, and associated with higher success and lower complication rates than block anesthesia. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of local infiltration anesthesia using 4% articaine in the analgesia of deciduous and permanent molars in children aged 5-18 years and mandibular premolars in children aged 10-18 years.
A clinical case series to determine the clinical response of dental caries lesions in primary teeth where 38% silver diamine fluoride gel is applied and cover with 2.5% sodium fluoride varnish. Additionally, to assess parent satisfaction with treatment with 38% silver diamine fluoride.
The process of removing bacteria and their products from the root canals is an essential step that is achieved through the combination of mechanical preparation and irrigation with chemicals. However, mechanical preparation alone can not reduce the microbial formations inside root canals, so at least about 35% of the root canal walls remain without the preparation tools reaching them. Many irrigants were used to irrigate the root canals, as sodium hypochlorite and chlorhexidine are the most famous. Although most studies have proven the effectiveness of sodium hypochlorite with its different concentrations in accomplishing this task, some of them showed the inability of the irrigant fluid to eliminate Enterococcus faecalis inside the canals. These bacteria are highly resistant, and therefore endodontic treatment fails in the long term.
The present study will be performed to evaluate: The remineralizing effect of Aloe Vera versus Diode laser on deep carious dentin after selective caries removal.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of direct and Indirect Composite Restoration in Children With Molar Incisor Hypomineralization Patients (MIH) and following up after 3 , 6 , 12 months (Clinically): Group A ( Control group ): Hypomineralization molars were restored by direct composite. Group B ( Experimental group ): Hypomineralization molars were restored by indirect composite.
Medical Treatment of Early-Enamel Carious Lesion using Different Remeneralizing agents
The hall technique for primary teeth depends on the idea of isolation of the carious non exposed primary tooth from all bacteria present in the oral cavity by using a stainless-steel crown which result in arresting of the caries and preventing its progress to the pulp. Recently laser and Silver Diamide Fluoride (SDF) have been used to arrest the progress of caries so in the current study we will compare the success rate of hall technique with either laser or SDF in arresting of caries
It has been demonstrated that a great amount of tooth structure is lost during the prosthetic preparations of abutments for full-coverage FDPs with tooth substance removal of 63% of 73%, this aggressive loss of tooth structure usually accompanied with pain and post-operative sensitivity. In comparison with the vertical preparation technique, there is less amount of tooth substance loss. this clinical study will provide benefits for practitioners and clinicians by guiding them to choose a more conservative treatment plan with the better marginal fit, clinical performance and satisfaction for the patients on the long term. rather than other benefits like less chair time, less risk for pulp injury, less time and cost
