Filter by:The goal of this randomised clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of cryotherapy on postoperative pain after primary and secondary root canal treatment. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Dose cryotherapy help reduce postoperative pain after primary root canal treatment. - Dose cryotherapy help reduce postoperative pain after secondary root canal treatment. Participants will be randomly divided to receive either cryotherapy or irrigation with normal saline and the effect between the two groups in terms of postoperative pain will be compared after primary and secondary root canal treatment.
Rehabilitation of anterior endodontically treated teeth with significant coronal damage has been problematic. Adopting endocrown design to treat teeth with this condition is still under investigation. To address this issue, the USPHS criteria were adopted to assess the anterior endocrown restorations manufactured using various ceramic materials and cemented with different protocols.
This randomized controlled trial is to clinically assess and compare impression quality of polyvinylsiloxane impression material using one step (experimental) and two step (control) impression techniques and its effect on marginal fit of prosthesis and proximal contact of prosthesis.
The purpose of the study is to use Allium sativum oil and Turmeric gel as non-vital Pulpotomy medicaments in primary teeth by evaluating their antibacterial effect against Streptococcus mutans and Lactobacillus acidophilus. It is hypothesized that there is no difference in the antibacterial effect of Allium sativum oil and Turmeric gel when used as non-vital Pulpotomy medicaments.
The purpose of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to use Allium sativum oil as non-vital Pulpotomy medicament compared to Formocresol in primary teeth by evaluating its antibacterial effect against Streptococcus mutans and Lactobacillus acidophilus. It is hypothesized that there is no difference in the antibacterial effect of Allium sativum oil compared with Formocresol, when used as non-vital Pulpotomy medicaments.
The purpose of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to use Turmeric gel as non-vital Pulpotomy medicament compared to Formocresol in primary teeth by evaluating its antibacterial effect against Streptococcus mutans and Lactobacillus acidophilus. It is hypothesized that there is no difference in the antibacterial effect of Turmeric gel compared with Formocresol, when used as non-vital Pulpotomy medicaments.
This clinical trial will be conducted to evaluate the amount of Il-8 expression before and after the application of intracanal irradiation with diode laser 980 nm versus placebo in failed endodontic cases with periapical lesions.
The aim of this clinical study was to compare the radiographic outcome of a root canal treatment with or without use of MTAD after 24 months recall. This in vivo study was a prospective, single-center; single blinded, parallel, and randomized clinical trial. The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Cukurova University Faculty of Medicine. One hundred patients with a noncontributory medical history presented to the Department of Endodontics of the University of Cukurova Faculty of Dentistry between October 2019 and February 2020 were selected according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. All selected teeth were single-rooted, maxillary and mandibular incisors, canines or premolars that were asymptomatic (no preoperative pain, swelling or acute endodontic or periodontal abscess). All pulps were nonvital and did not respond to cold testing. All patients were aged between 18 and 65 years, had no systemic diseases or allergies tolocal anaesthetic agents, had not previously received any endodontic treatment and had no radiographic evidence of periapical bone loss. Pregnant and breast-feeding women and patients taking analgesic, anti-inflammatory or antibiotic medications during the 7 days prior to the beginning of treatment were also excluded. All patients were informed that they were to be included in a clinical trial and their consent was obtained.The initial periapical radiographs of the patients were taken with the digital imaging system Digora Optime (Soredex, Tuusula, Finland) by long-cone paralleling technique with a film holder (Endo Rh plus; Indusbello, Londrina, PR, Brazil), the vitality of the pulp was evaluated by an electronic vitalometer (Analytic Technology Corp., Redmond, WA, USA) and confirmed by the absence of bleeding from the endodontic access cavity. For both maxillary and mandibular teeth, local infil-tration anaesthesia was achieved using 2 mL articaine hydrochloride with 1:200 000 adrenaline (Maxicaine; VEM Ilac, Istanbul, Turkey). Endodontic access preparations were performed using diamond round burs. After the canals were visible, patency was checked with a K-file (VDW GmbH, Munich, Germany), and a dental dam was placed to isolate the tooth. The working length (WL) was determined with an electronic apex locator (Raypex 6,VDW) and accepted when all 3 green bars were reached. In addition, the canal length was confirmed by a periapical radiograph, and the apex locator was accepted as correct in situations where the two did not match. Root canal instrumentation was performed using the Reciproc Blue (VDW, Munich) #50/0.5 file. During instrumentation of the root canals, irrigation was applied with 10 mL 2.5% NaOCl using side-vented needles (NaviTips, 30 gauge; Ultradent, South Jordan, UT, USA). The final irrigation in Control group was applied with 5 ml of 17% EDTA solution and 5 ml of distilled water. In the MTAD group, final irrigation was done with 5 mL of MTAD and 5 mL of distilled water. Side-vented needles were placed 1 mm shorter than the working length, and 5 ml of solution was given in 2 minutes. The root canals were dried with sterile paper points and were filled with cold lateral condensation technique using AH Plus root canal sealer (Dentsply Maillefer, Cologne, Germany) and gutta percha (President Dental, Duisburg, Germany). Then the cavity entry was restored with composite (Solarex, GC Corparation, Tokyo, Japan) and radiography was taken. Patients were invited to follow-up sessions at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months and were radiographically and clinically assessed. Many patients missed their follow-up appointments due to the covid 19 pandemic. The follow-up radiographs performed by long-cone paralleling technique with a film holder. The pre-treatment and 24-month follow-up radiographs of teeth, were prepared as a Power Point presentation (Microsoft ® Corporation, Redmond, WA) and the change in periapical radiolucency was assessed according to PAI scores of five categories; 1. Normal apical periodontium 2. Small changes in bone structures 3. Change in bone structure with mineral loss 4. Periodontitis with well-defined radiolucent area 5. Severe periodontitis with exacerbating features. Teeth with a PAI≤ 2 score and clinically asymptomatic were considered 'healthy' in the radiographic evaluation, while teeth with a PAI≥ 3 and/or clinically symptomatic were considered 'failure'.
First, participants will undergo clinical and radiographic examination for taking all the needed preoperative records, then endodontically treated teeth preparation starting with removal of any carious or undermined tooth structure then ferrule preparation then followed by intra-radicular preparation and then placement of the provisional restoration. In the third visit we will take the final impression of the post space for each patient by using the intraoral scan and extraoral scan o f the conventional impression. Then assessment of the apical gap length by using digital periapical radiograph using the paralleling technique and assessment of post adaptation using replica technique followed by placement and permanent cementation of the zirconia custom made post and core restoration that showed less apical gap length and better adaptation then taking the final impression for the extracoronal restoration and finally permanent cementation of the extra coronal fixed restoration.
Postoperative pain in endodontic retreatment cases presents a challenge to any endodontist. Tricalcium silicate materials as mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) and bioceramics have shown favorable periapical tissue reactions and healing when used as part of the root canal filling material. This study was conducted to compare the difference in the postoperative pain when resin cements are used versus bioceramic cements in the obturation of root canals.
