Sociologists have become interested in medicaments only recently, as a result of the dynamic growth pharmaceutical consumption at beginning 21st century. The development concepts such pharmaceuticalization and lifestyle drugs has facilitated research this area. Based on narrative literature review, article we highlight distinguishing features pharmaceuticals differentiate them from other consum...

introduction: one of the major contributing factors, which may cause failure of endodontic treatment, is the presence of residual microorganisms in the root canal system. for years, most dentists have been using calcium hydroxide (ch) as the intracanal medicament between treatment sessions to eliminate remnant microorganisms. reducing the size of ch particles into nanoparticles enhances the pen...

INTRODUCTION Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) has the ability to invade the dentinal tubules and resist high pH levels. As a result, calcium hydroxide (CH) is not much effective on this bacterium. In theory, nanoparticle calcium hydroxide (NCH) has smaller size and high surface area that enables it to penetrate into the deeper layers of dentin and be more effective on E. faecalis. This in vi...

BACKGROUND The treatment options for improving the balance in degenerative cerebellar ataxias are very few. Ayurvedic texts have described diverse treatment regimens for this disease. AIMS To determine the change in balance indices, if any, by dynamic posturography (Biodex Balance System, USA) in progressive cerebellar ataxia following Ayurvedic treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed...

OBJECTIVE Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) is the most frequently isolated strain in failed endodontic therapy cases since it is resistant to calcium hydroxide (CH). Whether a combination of CH and chlorhexidine (CHX) is more effective than CH alone against E. faecalis is a matter of controversy. Thus, the aim of this study was to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of the literatu...

OBJECTIVE Calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) has been used in endodontics as an intracanal medicament due to its antimicrobial effects and its ability to inactivate bacterial endotoxin. The inability to totally remove this intracanal medicament from the root canal system, however, may interfere with the setting of eugenol-based sealers or inhibit bonding of resin to dentin, thus presenting clinical ch...
