Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the outcomes of different medications used for pulpotomies (baby root canal) in children. The main question it aims to answer is: • what are the long-term clinical and radiographic success of pulpotomies in baby teeth using two different medications (NeoMTA and NeoPUTTY) over a 24-month follow-up period? Healthy children aged between 3 and 10 years undergoing dental treatment under general anesthesia who have deep caries lesions approximating or reaching the nerve will be invited to participate in this study. Pulpotomies (baby root canal) will be performed by trained dentists following a protocol. Children will receive pulpotomies either with NeoMTA or NeoPUTTY, two medications indicated for the procedure. Participants will be asked to come for an appointment at 1, 6, 12 and 24 months after the procedure. Researcher will compare the clinical and radiographic performance of pulpotomies (baby root canal) done with both medications.
Problem statement: The post-operative pain after endodontic treatment. aim of study: The study is aiming to compare postoperative pain after submucosal cold saline injection (submucosal cryotherapy) (SMC) versus intra-canal cryotherapy (ICC) in mandibular single rooted premolars with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis with symptomatic apical periodontitis (SAP). The material and methods: Subjects and methods: sixty patients will be randomly divided into three groups: the SMC group, the ICC group, and the control group. The patients' postoperative pain will be recorded at 12, 24, and 48 hours postoperatively by questioning them. Quantification of substance P will be done using an ELISA test from peri-radicular fluid swab.
Sodiumhexametaphosphate will be tested as pulp capping material in comparison to MTA for primary teeth pulp therapy
Sodiumhexametaphosphate will be used as capping material for dental pulp of immature permanent teeth
The goal of this observational study is to define the role of apical shaping and irrigation activation on root canal cleanliness. The main questions it aims to answer are: - does the effectiveness of irrigation activation depends on apical shaping? - can a similar success be achieved by increasing apical shaping without irrigation activation Participants will [describe the main tasks participants will be asked to do, treatments they'll be given and use bullets if it is more than 2 items].
The use of bioceramics materials as root canal fillings in endodontics is gaining traction due to their excellent biocompatibility, antibacterial and sealing abilities. They are dispensed in the form of sealers and cements to be used with gutta-percha or mixed with liquids to form a paste. Recently, Ortho MTA (BioMTA®) cement is clinically available as a root filling material, without the need for gutta-percha. The purpose of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to compare clinical outcome between the novel Ortho MTA (BioMTA®) and the conventional gutta-percha with bioceramic sealer, when used as obturating materials in root canal treatment. This research aims to compare the healing outcome of infected teeth treated by root canal treatment and root-filled using MTA cement (Ortho MTA, BioMTA® Seoul Korea) or bioceramic sealer (AH Plus® Bioceramic Sealer (Dentsply). The sealer can be used alone or in combination with gutta-percha obturating cones, injected gutta-percha material or core-carriers master cones. In vitro studies have demonstrated the capability of MTA to generate hydroxyapatite precipitates that penetrate into dentinal tubules.
The aim of the current study is to evaluate and compare clinical and radiographic success and antibacterial effect of Hyaluronic Acid and Amniotic membrane pulpotomy in primary molars in comparison with MTA pulpotomy (Randomized Clinical Trial and In Vitro Study).
The objective of this study will be to evaluate if photobiomodulation (FBM) can reduce postoperative pain in patients who will undergo endodontic surgery. For this randomized, controlled and double-blind clinical study, 34 patients without comorbidities who need endodontic surgery in the upper jaw (15 to 25 teeth) will be recruited. They will be randomly divided into an experimental group (n = 17) photobiomodulation (808nm, 100 mW, and 4J/cm2 with 5 points per vestibular). Applications will be made in the immediate postoperative period and 24 hours after surgery. Control group (n = 17) a FBM simulation will be performed in the same way as in the experimental group. In this group, the required analgesia will be administered within the standard with ibuprofen. Both groups will perform the necessary conventional procedures considered the gold standard in the literature. Both the patient and the evaluator will be blinded to the intervention performed. The primary outcome variable of the study will be postoperative pain, which will be assessed using the visual analog scale at all postoperative control visits (baseline, 24 hours and 7 days). As for the secondary outcome variables, the amount of systemic medication received according to the patient's need (will be provided by the investigator).. Radiographic images will be obtained after 1 and 2 months for evaluation of the repair (dimensions of the lesion, radiopacity). These radiographs will be taken digitally with the positioners implemented. Edema, ecchymosis, and evaluation of soft tissues in the anterior portion of the intra and extra-oral maxilla will also be evaluated. In addition, a digital thermometer. These parameters will be evaluated 24 hours and 7 days after the intervention. The X-rays will be taken in the 1st and 3rd month respectively.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine the local anesthetic efficacy and safety of 4% Articaine compared 2% Mepivicaine in 3 years old children, by using infiltration technique for primary teeth that required restorative, pulp therapy, or dental extraction procedure, as assessed by measuring the pain experience during injection and treatment procedures, child's behavior during the procedure, and postoperative complications.
The endodontic periodontal-disease is characterized by the involvement of the pulp and periodontal disease in the same tooth. The anatomic connections between the dental pulp and the periodontium provide a pathway for perio-endo communication via apical foramina, lateral canals, exposed dentinal tubules, and developmental grooves. These pathways provide an egress for pulpal disease to affect the periodontium and conversely, an ingress for periodontal disease to affect the pulp. Teeth with endo-perio disease, which are deemed salvageable might require root canal (endodontic) treatment, followed by staged periodontal treatment. Compared to conventional sealers used for endodontic treatment, the hydraulic calcium silicate based sealers (HCSB)s have excellent sealing ability, biocompatibility, regeneration ability, and antimicrobial characteristics. However little is known about its clinical benefits when used to treat endo-perio disease. The gold standard treatment for periodontitis affected teeth associated with intrabony lesions is guided tissue regeneration (GTR) which has significant improved clinical outcomes over open flap debridement (Cochrane systematic review 2005). However, the success the of this regenerative technique requires careful case and defect selection. We propose the use of an autologous bioactive scaffold, leukocyte platelet rich fibrin (L-PRF) to achieve regeneration of periodontal soft and hard tissues, resulting in faster healing, greater bone infill and improved predictability of clinical outcomes
