conclusions the most relevant finding was that hook pinning in pauwels type iii fracture may result in delayed :union: or non:union: due to significantly increased stress of a traction force at the fracture site that works to displace the fracture. however, in a pauwels type i fracture, increased compression stress contributes to stabilize it. surgeons are recommended not to treat pauwels type ...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy of two imaging modes in a cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) system in detecting root fracture in endodontically-treated teeth with fiber posts or screw posts by selecting two fields of view. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, 78 endodontically-treated single canal premolars were included. A post space was created in all of the...

Bilinear flow occurs when fluid is drained from a permeable matrix by producing it through an enclosed fracture of finite conductivity intersecting a well along its axis. The terminology reflects the combination of two approximately linear flow regimes: one in the matrix with flow essentially perpendicular to the fracture, and one along the fracture itself associated with the non-negligible pre...

Although, experimental studies have reported fracture at the corner of Steel Plate Shear Walls (SPSW), no study has been performed to investigate the crack effect, yet. Therefore, in this paper, the effect of crack at the corner of SPSWs on the seismic behavior of the system was investigated. Two probable cracks, that have been studies at the corner of SPSWs utilizing extended Finite Element me...

Unforeseen root fractures during endodontic therapy are often difficult to diagnose and treat. Apex locators have been shown to be accurate in measuring the working lengths of root canals, and it was postulated whether they could also be used to determine the position of root fractures. This study was undertaken to assess the accuracy of two different apex locators in determining the position o...

INTRODUCTION Fracture of rotary nickel-titanium files is a real concern among endodontists; it affects the long-term prognosis of treatment. Ultrasound is a favorable technique for removing broken files, although it may result in some complications. The aim of this study was to determine the success rate of ultrasonic technique in removing file fragments and to evaluate its influence on the for...

background and aims. it is important to evaluate the effects of endodontic materials on tooth structures to avoid endodontic treatment failure. the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of mineral trioxide aggregates (mta) and portland cement (pc) on fracture resistance of dentin. materials and methods. thirty-six freshly extracted human single-rooted premolar teeth were select...

Root fractures can involve the dentin, cementum, and pulp commonly occur as oblique with varying orientations. The aim of this study was to demonstrate maintenance health in a tooth fractured root without any endodontic treatment discuss advantage cone-bean computed tomography (CBCT) compared traditional radiographs diagnosis fractures. Intra-oral radiography 11 revealed horizontal fracture at ...
