Filter by:The process of removing bacteria and their products from the root canals is an essential step that is achieved through the combination of mechanical preparation and irrigation with chemicals. However, mechanical preparation alone can not reduce the microbial formations inside root canals, so at least about 35% of the root canal walls remain without the preparation tools reaching them. Many irrigants were used to irrigate the root canals, as sodium hypochlorite and chlorhexidine are the most famous. Although most studies have proven the effectiveness of sodium hypochlorite with its different concentrations in accomplishing this task, some of them showed the inability of the irrigant fluid to eliminate Enterococcus faecalis inside the canals. These bacteria are highly resistant, and therefore endodontic treatment fails in the long term.
The current study compares the efficacy of glass ionomer fissure sealant versus topical application of 5% sodium fluoride varnish in prevention of occlusal caries among preschool children.
The aim of this study is to determine whether the success rate of pulp therapy undergone on primary molars with signs and symptoms of odontogenic infection that may render them indicated for extraction will improve with the use of the Simvastatin alone, the Tri-Antibiotic Mix alone or when in combination together 3Mixstatin as a component in the root filling material.
To compare the efficacies of MTA, calcium hydroxide preparation, Biodentine and TheraCal LC that are commonly used in pediatric dentistry in the preservation of vital pulp in carious deciduous teeth.
Objective: To compare success rates of biodentine partial pulpotomy versus formocresol pulpotomy treatment of pulpally exposed lower primary molars. After caries removal resulted in a pulp exposure, the pulp at the exposed area is amputated to a depth of 2 mm. The wound surface is irrigated and dried. After homeostasis is obtained, an assistant drew lots to randomly allocate the case to either the biodentine partial pulpotomy (PP) or the formocresol pulpotomy (FP) group. The follow-up for clinical and radiographic evaluation will be carried out at 6-month intervals.
