Materials and Methods: 15 single rooted premolars were selected and middle portion of each root was sectioned perpendicular to the long axis to produce two discs of 2.00 ± 0.05 mm thickness using a diamond disk. 30 root slices were produced and canal lumen was widened using Gates Glidden drills to produce standardized internal diameter of 1.3mm and root sections were filled with ERRM, MTA and B...

This report presents the case of a 10-year-old patient with a nonvital young permanent tooth which was managed by pulp revascularization. Following disinfection of the canal by irrigation with NaOCl and use of a triantibiotic paste, a scaffold was created by inducing the formation of a blood clot within the canal. At the subsequent follow-up visits, the patient was asymptomatic, with normal res...

Statement of the Problem The surgical procedure of dental implantation in anterior maxillary area may be limited by the shape and size of nasopalatine canal (NPC). CBCT imaging provides three-dimensional information for surgical planning. Purpose This study is designed to evaluate the anatomy of NPC in a selected Iranian population. Materials and Method In this cross sectional study, CBCT i...

UNLABELLED Need for the study: The most important procedure for a successful endodontic treatment is the cleaning and shaping of the canal system. Understanding the internal anatomy of teeth provides valuable information to the clinician that would help him achieve higher clinical success during endodontic therapy. AIMS To evaluate by computed tomography-the internal anatomy of mandibular sec...

introduction: the aim of this study was to evaluate the root canal morphology of mandibular first and second molars using cone-beam computed tomography (cbct) in northern iranian population and also to indicate the thinnest area around root canals. methods and materials: we evaluated cbct images of 154 first molars and 147 second molars. by evaluating three axial, sagittal and coronal planes of...

A root canal sealer with antibacterial activity can be efficacious in preventing reinfection that results from residual microorganisms and/or the leakage of microorganisms. In the present study, a series of injectable, self-curing polyurethane (PU)-based antibacterial sealers with different concentrations of silver phosphate (Ag3PO4) were fabricated. Subsequently, their physicochemical properti...

This study correlated the morphological characteristics with the bond strengths of various resin cements used for bonding fiber posts to root canal dentin. Fifty glass-fiber posts (FRC Postec Plus) were luted into the root canals of extracted human anterior teeth using five resin cements (n = 10): Panavia F 2.0, PermaFlo DC, Variolink II, RelyX Unicem, and Clearfil Core. Before insertion of the...
