Objective: To determine the prevalence of C-shaped canals in lower molars (first and second molars) in a Chilean subpopulation, and to identify root configuration and demographic characteristics using cone beam tomography.Materials and method: 912 molars (456 first and 456 secon...
Objective: Various glide path preparation techniques have been introduced, providing easiness to the practitioners. Recent literature has shown that glide path preparation influences the levels of postoperative pain occurrence in individuals receiving endodontic ...
Objective: To evaluate the applications of 3d printing /additive manufacturing (AM) in dental education & clinical dentistry and elaborate various 3d printing technologies, its benefits, limitations and future scope. Methods: Research papers on the application of 3d p...
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of teeth with apical periodontitis (AP), root-filled teeth with (RFTAP), and without apical periodontitis (RFT) in 2500 digital panoramic radiographs from an adult Northeastern Brazilian population sample. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted...
ABSTRACT Objective: To determine the impact of distinctive instrumentation systems of the root canals on the endotoxin lessening through the root canals. Material and Methods: From the electronic databases, MEDLINE, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, ISI, Google Scholar have been used to perform a syste...
O acesso à cavidade pulpar é a etapa do tratamento endodôntico que tem como objetivo expor a embocadura dos canais radiculares. Por muito tempo, o formato ideal da cavidade era aquele que proporcionasse a criação de uma trajetória reta ao canal, com a remoção completa do teto da câmara pulpar. P...
En la práctica de odontología pediátrica el tratamiento endodóntico es un reto permanente en el profesional, considerando que la clave de un procedimiento exitoso es un adecuado protocolo de irrigación; por ello el objetivo de esta investigación pretende comprobar la eficacia clínica ex vivo fren...
Abstract Apical periodontitis is an inflammatory disorder of periradicular tissues developed from endodontic infections. Understanding its pathophysiology and the underlying molecular mechanisms is key to the advancement of endodontics. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a group of evolutionarily conserved small non-co...
The filling material should be restricted to the root canal, and not extend to the periradicular tissues. Overextension occurs when there is an overflow of gutta-percha and sealer, whereas overfilling refers to the overflow only of sealer beyond the apical foramen. Both may cause...
O objetivo do presenteestudo foi avaliar a atividade antibacteriana dos cimentos endodôn-ticos MTA Fillapex, Sealapex, Sealer 26 e Endofill puros e acrescidos de amoxicilina e ci-profloxacina frente a duas linhagens ATCC de Enterococcus faecalis (ATCC 29212 e ATCC 4083).
