Filter by:The basic aim of root canal treatment is to reduce the microbial content and prevent further recontamination in the canal. Every tooth has a variable, complex canal anatomy consisting of ramifications, accessory and lateral canals. Instrumentation alone cannot reach all the areas for cleaning.The objectives of this research study is to observe and compare the effect of irrigation with smearOFF , etidronic acid/ hypochlorite and other irrigants on sealer penetration and dentin erosion of root dentin by using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Energy Dispersive X-Ray Analysis (EDX). Hundred extracted premolar teeth is subjected to root canal instrumentation. The endodontic procedure is done with protaper gold files. Initial irrigation is done by 5% sodium hypochlorite. Samples are divided into five groups. Each group consists of twenty single rooted premolars based on final irrigation regimen. There will be four experimental groups which are as follows (1) 17% EDTA (2) SmearOFF 3) Maleic acid (4) HEBP/NaOCL. Whereas, saline will be the control group. After the preparation and final irrigation of all teeth with experimental irrigants, sterile saline is used to flush all canals and dried using paper points. After final irrigation teeth are further divided into two groups (A) Sealer penetration (B) Dentin erosion. In both the groups standardization of root length, cleaning and shaping procedure are the same. For sealer penetration, obturation is done by warm vertical using AH plus sealer. Samples are incubated at 37º Celsius (°C) and 100% humidity for 7 days. The samples are marked and divided into three horizontal section at 2mm, 5mm and 8mm. Using SEM, measure the maximum depth of sealer penetration on each side that is buccal, lingual, mesial and distal and take the mean for each section of sample. For dentin erosion (B) samples are divided sagitally & buccolingually into two halves. The half containing the most visible part of apical area is taken and than examined using EDX. One-Way ANOVA-test will be used to compare mean values of multiple groups. Tukey's post hoc test will be used to determine the group with significance at P≤0.05. Two observers will evaluate the results using kappa statistics.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the survival rate and healing time of compromised teeth and seriously compromised teeth that were endodontically treated in patients which received bisphosphonate therapy . Clinical complications, success and survival rate was reported. Mean clinical parameters, clinical symptoms and presence of periapical radilucency were recorded.
This prospective comparative randomized clinical trial compares healing and bony regeneration in patients who received 1 of 3 different retrograde filling materials following microsurgical apicoectomies for the treatment of periapical lesions of endodontic origin.
Dental infections originating in the teeth are routinely managed systemically with a course of oral antibiotics, while severe forms are managed with intravenous antibiotics. Dental infections can also be managed by removing the offending cause of the infection followed by placement of an intra-canal medication which acts as a local antimicrobial. Intra-canal medicaments are being used in clinical practice following root canal treatment. The investigators hypothesize that the effect of intra-canal antimicrobials in the management of dental infections will be the better than oral antibiotics in terms of clinical , microbial and oral- health quality of life parameters. This will be a three-arm, parallel, comparative, randomized study with the aim of assessing the efficacy of intra-canal medication and oral antibiotics in reducing the infection and treatment of odontogenic infections, based on signs and symptoms and microbial count. The study will be performed in child participants between the age group of 3 to 11 years presenting with acute odontogenic infections. Participants will be randomized by block randomization. The treatment duration of the study will be at least 5 days or maximum 7 days depending upon the response. Participants will be assessed on Day 3 and Day 5/7. Concurrently, the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) following these clinical interventions in children will be recorded and again on Day 14. Quantitative assessment of microorganisms seen in the root canals and the changes seen in the microbial flora through the treatment will help us to determine the best antimicrobial agent to be used in the management of odontogenic infections.
This Study Was Made to Evaluate the Antibacterial Effect of Different Antibacterial Combinations on Revascularization Process in Permanent Anterior Immature Teeth. Immature Necrotic Permanent Maxillary Incisors (n = 40) of Patients 8-18 Years Old Were Divided Into 4 Equal Groups (Each n = 10) According to the Intracanal Medicament: Group 1 Was Treated With Triple Antibiotic Paste (TAP), Group 2 Was Treated With Ciprofloxacin + Propolis Paste (CP), Group 3 Was Treated With Ciprofloxacin + Metronidazole Paste (CM), Group 4 Was Treated With Propolis + Metronidazole Paste (PM). Cases Were Followed at Regular Intervals up to 18 Months Clinically and Radiographically.
An individual's quality of life can be seriously affected by the severity of dental pain. The emergency department is a common place to find those seeking relief from their dental pain- often times seeking removal of the affected tooth, dental anesthetic injections or oral pain medications. There are a number of dental infections that cause this type of debilitating pain. One such dental infection is termed periapical abscess. This infection involves the tooth pulp. These infections can arise in three ways: introduction through a defect in the enamel and dentin; from a periodontal pocket or an adjacent tooth; or hematogenous seeding of the pulp from mechanical irritation. As this disease process continues there are a number of complications including chronic pain and, more seriously, the spread of infection into deep spaces which can be a life threatening condition. The Emergency Department treatment of this infection includes pain control, antibiotics and dental referral for ultimate management of the infection. The purpose of our study is to investigate whether the addition of oral steroids will alter the time until patient experiences improvement in their dental pain. Steroids are a commonly used anti-inflammatory that is used in the Emergency Departmentfor the purpose of pain relief from throat pain. As the pain from periapical infection is thought to be largely from the pressure we speculate that the anti-inflammatory effects of steroids may decrease the inflammation thus the pressure and may ultimately lead to a decrease in time until the patient experiences some relief from their pain.
The trial is to test the resolution of pain, swelling and other signs of periapical infection and the antimicrobial efficacy when using the neem leaf extract compared to chlorhexidine as root canal irrigant in Pulpectomy treatment for children.
