Filter by:Introduction: The aim of this study comparing the post operative pain after the retreatment of asymptomatic and symptomatic teeth that during single visit treatment with rotary and reciprocal nickel titanium files. Methods: One hundred and forty one patients scheduled for non-surgical endodontic retreatment were included for evaluation. Eighty five patients who needed endodontic retreatment were assingned to 2 groups according to semptomatic or asemptomatic teeth and 4 subgroups with rotary and resiprocal files. Endodontic filling material was removed with One Flare and MicroMega REMOVER files in the retreatment kit. Patients then recorded their postoperative pain on a VAS scale at 24h, 48h, 72h, 7 days and 14 days post-treatment. Results were analyzed using the Shapiro-Wilk, Mann-Whitney U, Kruskal-Wallis, Dunn-Bonferroni and Pearson Chi-square tests.
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.
Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are a significant occupational health problem for dentists and have been linked to a decline in quality of life, often leading to stress-related illnesses and early retirement. Poor posture, poor movement or imbalances in the neck or shoulders can lead to the three most common pain syndromes in dentistry. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the working position adopted during an endodontic procedure and to determine the perception of symptoms of musculoskeletal disorders in first and second year students of the Master in Advanced Endodontics at the European University of Madrid (UEM), using the standardised Nordic Kuorinka questionnaire supplemented by a form with socio-demographic variables. This study has a descriptive cross-sectional observational design and included 10 students selected by convenience sampling. A video camera was used to record the procedures from three different angles for a maximum of 5 minutes. The information was processed using Microsoft Excel spreadsheet software, and the video recordings were assessed using Rodgers' Muscular Fatigue Analysis (RMFA) and Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA).
Introduction: To evaluate the survival and success rate of premolars with a previous root canal treatment which underwent to non-surgical retreatment or to extraction and implant replacement. Materials and methods: Patients visiting in the Clinical Endodontic Section of the School of Dentistry (University of Bologna) were eligible for the study. Out of these patients, those with previously root canal treated premolars fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Teeth were considered retreatable and restorable (Endo group) or not retreatable and not restorable (Implant group) on the basis of clinical and radiographical examination. Each patient was included in an annual recall programme and final evaluation was performed after 8 years. Clinical parameters were recorded. Differences in baseline characteristics between the two treatment groups were assessed using logistic regression analysis with clustered standard errors. Results were expressed for each variable as odds ratios (ORs) of implant rehabilitation to root canal retreatment with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Survival and treatment success for the two study groups were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. The association of treatment group with time to event was assessed using Cox proportional hazard regression analysis with clustered standard errors to allow for intragroup correlation within teeth belonging to the same patient. Results were expressed as hazard ratios (HRs) of experiencing the study event among implants as compared to root canal retreatments with 95% CIs.
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.
Silver nanoparticles possess unique physicochemical and biological properties in addition to their antibacterial capabilities. Similarly, zinc oxide nanoparticles have demonstrated antibacterial effects against a wide range of bacteria, including heat and pressure resistant spores. Given these characteristics, it would be valuable to evaluate and compare a new irrigation solution containing nanosilver and nanozinc-oxide particles with sodium hypochlorite. Furthermore, Chitosan Nanoparticles are expected to exhibit enhanced antibacterial activity compared to regular-sized Chitosan due to their ability to penetrate and disrupt microbial cell membranes. Consequently, the current study aims to assess and compare the antibacterial activity of Silver Nanoparticles and Chitosan Nanoparticles, as well as their impact on post-operative pain.
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 purpose of this study is to develop a protocol for biofilms disinfection with a FDA cleared, clinically approved and commercially available Er,Cr:YSGG laser treatments. This protocol will be testing local single topical application of Lasers within the canal system in patients going through routine endodontic treatment, evaluate its potential as anti-biofilm treatment and compare it to other currently used antibacterial protocols.
