intentional tooth reimplantation can be an alternative treatment option for teeth with poor or hopeless prognosis where coronal and surgical endodontic treatment(s) are not possible. this technique may help to restore a natural tooth to function in preference to prosthesis/implant replacements. a 38-years old male was referred to private practice with persistent chronic apical periodontitis of ...

Regeneration was studied in the Ambystoma annulatum by the amputation of the right forearm of twenty-four adults, over a twelve month period. Atthe termination of the experiment the limbs were reamputated 1-2 mm proximal to the original amputation site. The regenerated portions were staged, examined at the gross morphological level, and prepared for histological examination. Gross examination r...

Introduction The material used for root-end filling has to be biocompatible with adjacent periapical tissue and to stimulate its regenerative processes. Tricalcium silicate cement (TSC), as a new dental material, shows good sealing properties with dentin, high compression strengths and better marginal adaptation than commonly used root-end filling materials. Although optimal postoperative heali...

This case report describes the management of a late-referral case of periapically involved, traumatized immature permanent incisors by endodontic treatment and the use of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) apical plugs. A 10-year-old boy was referred to the clinic with a chief complaint of pain in his maxillary central incisors, which had experienced subluxation trauma 2 years earlier. Periapical...

The choice of one-visit versus two-visit root canal therapy for necrotic teeth with apical periodontitis is a source of current debate. The primary objective of this randomized controlled clinical trial was to compare radiographic evidence of periapical healing after root canal therapy completed in one visit or two visits with an interim calcium hydroxide/chlorhexidine paste dressing. Ninety-se...

Introduction: Internal root resorption is a progressive loss of dentin in teeth with inflamed and possibly partially necrotic pulp tissue. If diagnosed at early stages, the process is halted by endodontic treatment. While endodontic treatment is the preferred treatment modality for internal root resorption, current standard endodontic techniques pose a challenge for cleaning, disinfection and o...

AIM To evaluate the effect of implant length (6 mm vs.11 mm) on osseointegration (bone-to-implant contact) of implants installed into sockets immediately after tooth extraction. MATERIAL AND METHODS In six Labrador dogs, the pulp tissue of the mesial roots of (3) P(3) was removed and the root canals were filled. Flaps were elevated bilaterally, the premolars hemi-sectioned and the distal root...

The main aim of this case report was to the clinical efficacy decompression for treating large periapical lesions. Tooth with cystic lesions were treated after root canal treatment. A conventional technique such as aspiration/irrigation used in case. An 18-G needle a syringe aspirate lesion. Two needles then inserted into lesion copious saline irrigation delivered from 1 and until clear express...
