Filter by: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).
Dental caries represents a challenge for Oral Health Services in several African Countries, like Uganda. Few studies have been reported the burden of oral health, its prevention and non-operative treatment among school children in African countries. Aim: To assess the prevalence and risk factors of dental caries and the effectiveness of strategies to prevent and treat dental caries using a non-operative approach among children in Gulu Municipality, Uganda. Methods: The proposal RCT is structured in three phases: 1. A descriptive cross-sectional survey to collect oral data among 610 school children selected using a multistage cluster sampling; 2. A randomized unblinded two-arm trial to assess the difference in the treatment/prevention of dental caries using non-operative means among school children in the Ugandian Gulu municipality; and 3. A comparison of oral health conditions between a group of children who will be given dental cleaning tools and followed up over time versus a control group. The oral health status of the participants will be assessed according to WHO and ICDAS guidelines. Stata 14.0. will be used for analysis; descriptive statistics will be carried out to analyze continuous and categorical variables and chi-square test as well as independent tests for bivariate analysis and modified poisson regression. In addition, the factors associated with dental caries will be determined by linear regression models using a statistical significance level of 5% (α = 0.05). Discussion: This trial will be the first trial conducted in Uganda assessing a school-based caries prevention programme using the WHO and ICDAS standardized international guidelines. The findings obtained will increase knowledge on oral health in Uganda school children and the effectiveness of community-based caries prevention programme in this population.
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.
The aim of this study is to compare the clinical performance of composite veneers performed in two different ways, indirect and direct methods over a period of 6-year. 30 volunteer patients without systemic diseases and who applied to Ege University School of Dentistry for the esthetic restoration of their anterior diastema (gap) were selected according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. The closure of 102 diastema was randomly performed with prefabricated composite resin veneers (n=15; indirect method- Componeer, Coltène, Altstätten, Switzerland) or direct composite resin veneers (n=15; direct method- Essentia, GC, Japan). These restorations were clinically evaluated at baseline, 1-2-6-year by two experienced and blind examiners according to modified Ryge criteria (USPHS criteria). Color match, marginal discoloration, anatomic form, marginal adaptation, secondary caries, surface roughness, retention, and polishing retention were evaluated for that purpose. Statistical analysis was performed with McNemar and Chi-square tests (p<0.05).
The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical performances of Edelweiss prefabricated veneers and direct resin composite restorations (Ceram-X Duo SphereTec) performed with U- veneer transparent templates used for anterior diastema closure and tooth reshaping over 3-year. The patient group consisted of individuals who applied for aesthetic complaints on their anterior teeth. 21 volunteer individuals without systemic disease were included in the study. Patients were randomly selected for each group. In Group 1; 38 teeth (10 patients) were restored with Edelweiss prefabricated veneers (Edelweiss Dentistry) in combination with Edelweiss nanohybrid resin composite (Edelweiss Dentistry) and Prime&Bond Universal (Dentsply Sirona) adhesive system. In Group 2; 36 teeth (11 patients) were restored with Ceram-X Duo SphereTec (Dentsply Sirona) resin composite in combination with U- veneer (Ultradent) transparent templates and Prime&Bond Universal adhesive systems. Properties of the restorations were evaluated at baseline, 6, 12, 24, and 36 months using Modified Ryge Criteria (USPHS Criteria). Data were evaluated using Chi-Square and Fisher's Exact tests (p=0.05).
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 study aimed to compare potassium nitrate in polycarboxylate cement to mineral trioxide aggregate as a direct pulp capping material of young permanent teeth in patients from 7 to 10 ears
