Filter by:One of the main goals of pediatric dentistry is to preserve the functions and structures of primary teeth until the time of exfoliation. Especially carious lesions are the main factor in the early loss of primary teeth. Today, primary teeth can be kept in the mouth by applying different treatments depending on the degree of inflammation caused by carious lesions in the pulp tissue.Coronal pulpotomy application in asymptomatic primary teeth with deep carious lesions near the pulp is one of the most common methods to achieve the goal of retaining the tooth in place. The purpose of the pulpotomy technique is to remove the affected pulp tissue and maintain the normal function of the unaffected root pulp tissue until the tooth is naturally ready to exfoliate. Studies have shown that the degree of pulp inflammation and the materials used are effective in the success of this treatment. In studies evaluating pulpal inflammation, many biomarkers have been shown to play significant roles at different levels of inflammation. Recently, Presepsin has been studied as a biomarker for detecting bacterial infections. However, there is no study in the literature on the use of Presepsin as a biomarker in endodontic treatments. In our study, it is thought that Presepsin biomarker could be detected in cases of acute or chronic infection in pulp tissue and could be considered as one of the mediators of pulpal inflammation. Based on this, the aim of our study is to investigate whether the materials used in covering the pulp or the level of inflammation in the remaining pulp tissue is more important for the success of pulpotomy treatment. The inflammation level in the remaining pulp tissue will be measured using IL-6, IL-8, and Presepsin. Then, the one-year success of treatment in different groups where pulp tissue is randomly covered with MTA, NeoMTA, Biodentine, and Zinc oxide eugenol will be demonstrated. Thus, it will be evaluated whether materials previously found to be quite successful in other studies achieve success in pulps with high inflammation levels.
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.
the goal of this clinical trial is to compare clinical and radiographic outcomes of partial pulpotomy in vital primary molars using TheraCal PT®, Biodentin® and NeoPUTTY® MTA , followed by glass ionomer restoration only or glass ionomer restoration and stainless-steel crown.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the capability of the material to exert bacterial reduction of diclofenac sodium versus of that calcium hydroxide paste when these materials are used as intracanal medications in permanent molar teeth with chronic apical periodontitis. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: • Will the diclofenac sodium (NSAIDs) possess antimicrobial efficacy to be used effectively as an intracanal medicament similar to that of calcium hydroxide in primary endodontic treatment? Participants will be allocated randomly into three equal groups by using computer generated randomization, according to the type of intracanal medication.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the anti-bacterial potential of Nano Calcium Hydroxide as an intracanal medication in primary endodontic treatment of permanent molars.
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 aim of this study is to evaluate in vivo the post operative pain after laser root canal treatment in necrotic teeth in an evidence-based clinical trial. The null hypothesis being tested is that there is no difference in post operative pain between conventional irrigation and the two types of lasers used. Thirty patients are equally divided into 3 separate groups : - Group A (Conventional): 2.5% NaOCL and 17% EDTA. - Group B(Dual): saline along with Er,Cr:YSGG laser and diode laser combination - Group C(Combined): saline along with 17% EDTA and diode laser combination Each patient is given pain scale chart Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) to record his/her pain level before any endodontic treatment. All data will be collected, tabulated, summarized, and statistically analyzed.
The goal of this observational is study is to develop a protocol for root canal biofilms disinfection using a clinically approved and commercially available iron oxide nanoparticle formulation Ferumoxytol/H2O2 treatments. This protocol will be testing local single topical application of Ferumoxytol within the root canal system in patients going through routine root canal treatment, evaluate its potential as anti-biofilm treatment and compare it to the clinical gold standard disinfecting solution sodium hypochlorite (positive control) and saline (negative control).
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the dental lasers as an alternative of chemical medicaments used in the pulpotomy procedures. The main question it aims to answer is: • Lasers pulpotomies are a viable alternative to the standard Formocresol and Sodium Hypochlorite medicaments. All participants groups (Formocresol, Sodium Hypochlorite, Diode and Er:Cr;YSGG lasers) for pulpotomy procedure will follow the same clinical protocol, except for the techniques that will be used for hemostasis of the pulpotomies which either will be achieved by Formocresol or Sodium Hypochlorite solutions or by Diode or Erbium lasers.
