Background : The purpose of this study was to evaluate apical debris extrusion in curved root canals using a specific file system.METHODS:50 human mandibular molars were extracted and chosen for the study, ranging between 20 40 degree curvature radii <10mm randomly assigned 2 groups (n=20) according kinematics used canal preparation ( reciprocating motion with waveone gold system) Manual Tec...

Objective: The aim was to evaluate the effect of root canal geometry on amount apical extrusion irrigant, by testing different tapers and needle types. Materials Method: Forty-three extracted single-rooted human mandibular premolar teeth were accessed. Experimental groups instrumented produce increasing amounts taper in each successive group: Group 1 (#25/.02), 2 (#25/.04), 3 (#25/.06), 4 (#25/...

Aim: The aim of this ex vivo study was to compare the amount debris extruded during retreatment using stainless steel hand files (Hedstroem files) and R-Endo Nickel Titanium rotary instruments. Methodology: Eighty single-rooted freshly extracted human mandibular premolars were divided into two groups consisting 40 teeth each. Retreatment performed with (Micro-Mega, Besançon, France) Hedstroem (...

Listeria monocytogenes causes invasive disease by crossing the intestinal epithelial barrier. This process depends on the interaction between the bacterial surface protein Internalin A and the host protein E-cadherin, located below the epithelial tight junctions at the lateral cell-to-cell contacts. We used polarized MDCK cells as a model epithelium to determine how L. monocytogenes breaches th...
