Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare the influence number coronal walls and post-endodontic restorations on mechanical strength 165 recently extracted endodontically treated maxillary premolars.

Introduction Pain control following root canal therapy is a challenging issue in dentistry. This double-blind study aimed to compare the effectiveness of Celebrex and celecoxib used to control post-endodontic pain. Material and Methods In this randomized, double-blind study, 43 patients with symptomatic teeth were selected. The subjects gave their consent for a prophylactic oral administrati...

BACKGROUND: Until recently the most accepted technique of doing root canal treatment stresses multiple visit procedure. Most schools also concentrated upon teaching the multi-visit concept. However, it has now been reported that the procedure of single visit treatment is advocated by at least 70% of schools in all geographical areas. It was therefore the aims of the present study to find the in...

Abstract Objective: Endodontically treated teeth with inadequate crown structure need a radicular post to help restore the tooth to proper function. Therefore, finding an efficient and timely method for preparing the post space in a way that causes less change in the amount of apical flood of the canal, has been the subject of various discussions and researches for many years. In this study, ...

Apical periodontitis, a chronic inflammatory lesion of the periradicular tissue, is caused by etiological agents endodontic origin. It considered as potent communication between microbiological factors and defense system host at interface periodontal ligament infected radicular pulp. Endodontic treatment failure often characterized existence post-treatment apical which may be persistent, recurr...

OBJECTIVES This study compared the fracture strength and survival rate of endodontically treated crowned maxillary incisors with approximal class III cavities and different core build-ups. METHODS Sixty-four caries free human maxillary central incisors were selected for standardized size and quality, endodontically treated and prepared with approximal cavities 3mm in diameter. Group 1 was res...

Irrigation of root canals during endodontic therapy is an important step. Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), chlorhexidine (CHX) and normal saline are commonly used intracanal irrigants to disinfect and clean the root canals. This prospective study was set to observe the efficacy of normal saline (0.9% NaCl) irrigation with sequential irrigation of 3% H2O2, 5.2% NaOCl and 0....

BACKGROUND The incidence of post-operative pain was compared following single-visit canal treatment in single- and multi-rooted teeth, with and without periapical radiolucency. The article also reviews the issues of postoperative pain and healing, following single-visit and multi-visit endodontic therapy. Single-visit endodontic therapy (SVE) was performed in 50 single-rooted teeth and 60 multi...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of eugenol-containing endodontic sealers and luting strategy on the pull-out bond strength of glass fiber posts to dentin. Sixty-four bovine incisors were randomly assigned into two groups of 32 specimens each for obturation procedure with gutta-percha only, or with Pulp Canal Sealer EWT Subsequently, the roots were prepared for the fiber post...
