Impacted mandibular third molar tooth has the potential to induce periodontal problems in the distal root of second molar tooth. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous biomaterial which has been used to enhance soft and hard tissue regeneration. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effectiveness of PRP in management of periodontal pocket at the distal root of mandibular second ...

OBJECTIVES Localization of the mandibular canal (MC) and measurement of the height and width of the available alveolar bone at the proposed implant site in the posterior segment of the mandible using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in patients with a single missing tooth. MATERIALS AND METHODS A cross-sectional study was performed where CBCT scans of the patients with a single missing to...

Abstract Introduction Pulp and periodontal tissues may communicate and, in pathological situations, combined endodontic-periodontal lesions be established. Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence endo-perio non-molar molar teeth referred for endodontic treatment. Material method sample consisted 104 evaluated 79 consecutive patients a cross-sectional design. Visible plaqu...

To evaluate the effect of third molar impaction and impaction-related parameters on development. Panoramic radiographs (N=3972) from 473 males 558 females between 3.2 23.5 years old were analysed. Three examined: hindering contact adjacent second molar, retromolar space availability (only in lower molars), angulation molar. From separate parameters, a definition for was derived. Third molars’ d...

Introduction: Treatments with dental surgery seek to displace tooth to the correct position within the dental arch. Objective: To report a clinical case that took advantage of an unerupted third molar. Case history: A male patient, 18 years of age, was referred by his dentist to evaluate the third molars. The clinical exam revealed no visible lower third molars. The computed tomography (CT...

The purpose of this study was to elucidate a possible association between ectopic first molar eruption causing root resorption on the distal root of the primary maxillary second molar, and ectopic canine eruption causing root resorption on the permanent maxillary incisors. The subjects consisted of 30 patients, 22 females and eight males in the age range 8.3-15.0 years in whom root resorption o...

IJMDS ● www.ijmds.org ● January 2015; 4(1) 560 Original Article Influence of first premolar extraction on second and third molar angulation A clinical study Tarvade SMT, Biday S ABSTRACT Background: In modern populations, the impaction rate is higher for third molars than for any other tooth. Due to the speculation of third molar role on late incisor crowding, many orthodontists prescribe remov...

BACKGROUND Considering the limitations of current pathologic methods in distinguishing two subtypes of hydatidiform mole and non-molar pregnancy, the utility of immunohistochemical markers in this regards and the importance of differentiating of mentioned pathologic patterns, in this study the expression of P63 in patients with complete hydatidiform mole (CHM), partial hydatidiform mole (PHM) a...
