background: the aim of this study was to evaluate apical transportation and centering ability of single-fi le instruments, waveone primary, with full rotation versus reciprocation movement using cone-beam computed tomography (cbct) analysis in curved mesiobuccal (mb) root canal of human mandibular molars. materials and methods: thirty mb canals of mandibular molars were randomly divided into tw...

AIM The purpose of this study was to determine the wear of stainless steel crowns (SSCs) in children, and compare the extent of microleakage in SSCs that had been repaired using either a cermet glass-ionomer cement (GIC) or a packable composite resin (CR). MATERIALS AND METHODS For the first aim, the occlusal surface thickness of 31 harvested SSCs (21 primary first and 10 second molars) and 1...

The aim of this study was to describe the distribution and degree of infraocclusion and to evaluate the influence of the age of diagnosis and treatment outcomes of primary molars during a period of 2 years. 21 patients, aged between 6 to 11 years, participated in the study. The children were subjected to clinical and radiographic examinations every 6 months during 2 years. Parameters assessed w...

The study aimed to compare the dentine wear of primary and permanent human and bovine teeth because of erosion/abrasion and evaluate if bovine dentine is an appropriate substitute for human dentine in further erosion/abrasions tests. Dentine samples from deciduous molars and human third molars as well as from calves' and cattle's lower incisors were prepared and baseline surface profiles were r...
