Abstract Aim: To compare and evaluate the effect of glide path creation with Nitiflex hand K- file, Proglider and Path file on canal transportation and concentricity in apically curved canals. Objectives: To compare the degree of canal transportation and concentricity between: 1) Glide path preparation with Nitiflex hand-K file vs Proglider file followed by combination of Hyflex EDM and CM file instrumentation 2) Glide path preparation with Proglider file vs Path file followed by combination of Hyflex EDM and CM file instrumentation 3) Glide path preparation with Nitiflex hand- K file vs Path file followed by combination of Hyflex EDM and CM file instrumentation Materials and methods: Forty ISO 20, 0.02 taper, Endo Training Blocks (Dentsply Maillefer) were acquired and divided into following four groups (n = 10): group A, Control group without glide path preparation; group B, Glide path preparation with Nitiflex hand-K file; Group C: Glide path preparation with Proglider file; Group D: Glide path preparation with Path files. In all the groups, combination of Hyflex EDM and CM file instrumentation was done after glide path creation. Pre- and post-instrumentation digital images were processed with Image J Version 1.8.0 software to identify the center of the canal, and then superimposed using Adobe Photoshop 7.0 software. Unpaired/independent t test and One Way ANOVA were used for intergroup comparison of difference of mean scores. Results: In comparison to other groups, training blocks instrumented with Proglider files and a combination of Hyflex EDM and CM files had reduced deviation in canal axis. Conclusion: Following the combination of Hyflex EDM and CM file instrumentation with an earlier glide path created with Proglider file, canal concentricity and canal geometry are better preserved. Key words: Glide path, canal transportation, proglider, path files, Hyflex EDM

Early childhood caries is a multifactorial disease that severely degrades the primary maxillary incisors and molars in a child aged 71 months or younger. It can cause reduced masticatory efficiency, loss of vertical dimension, development of speech problems, esthetic-functional problems such as malocclusion and space loss, and psychological problems that can compromise the behavioral development of the child. The treatment of severely decayed primary teeth presents a special challenge to pediatric dentists. The present case report describes the oral rehabilitation of a 5-year-old male patient with type II ECC whose teeth were restored using various treatment modalities including preformed space maintainers, preformed zirconia crowns, fiber post, SSC, pulpectomies and composite restorations. Keywords: Early Childhood Caries, Stainless-steel crowns, Zirconia crowns, Fibre-post, Dental caries

Preventive orthodontics is an aspect of pediatric dentistry, which requires exclusive set of skills and understanding to aid the patient’s treatment and properly align teeth. The safest way to prevent future malocclusions from tooth loss is to place a space maintainer (SM), which is advocated to embrace the space until the eruption of succedaneous permanent teeth. SM manufacturing is a painstaking process that requires plentiful communication with the laboratory to suitably complete and provide the patient with optimal results. Band and loop SM is mostly indicated for the premature loss of single primary molar, but this appliance has a number of limitations. Digital technology has resulted in decreasing human errors by automating the dental model fabricating process with three‑dimensional printing. The current paper provides an insight of the use of this new technology in pediatric dentistry for manufacturing of new type of SMs and a case report

Background– Periodontal disease, if not interfered, will headway further with attachment loss involving the bifurcation or trifurcation of multirooted teeth. Furcation involved molar teeth respond less favorably to conventional periodontal therapy alone resulting into tooth loss. Combining osseous grafting with guided tissue regeneration membrane may enhance the response to treatment as compared to graft – only therapy by achieving mechanical stabilization and preventing micromovement of the bone graft material. Aim & Objective – To compare the efficacy of demineralized freeze-dried bone allograft alone or in combination with guided tissue regeneration membrane in the treatment of mandibular Grade II furcation defects. Materials & method - In this study a total number of 20 patients with 20 mandibular sites (buccal grade II furcation involvement) were evaluated. They were divided into two groups: Control group (bone graft only) and test group (bone graft + GTR). The clinical parameters assessed were vertical probing depth, horizontal probing depth and relative clinical attachment level. Results – In this study the statistical analyses comparing test and control sites at baseline revealed no significant differences between the two groups for any of the clinical parameters considered. At 6 month evaluation, significant difference was found between two groups regarding VPD, HPD and rCAL. Conclusion – It was concluded that there is a significant enhanced effect of using DFDBA bone graft in combination with GTR membrane over bone graft alone for the treatment of mandibular Grade II furcation defects.

ABSTRACT: Dental fractures comprise the most frequent form of traumatic dental injury and often require an immediate procedure for their treatment. Among the treatments, the restoration of fractured teeth by reattachment of the tooth fragment to its tooth remnant is a viable clinical procedure to treat tooth fracture due to trauma because it is considered a highly conservative technique.

Background- The perpetuity has become a rising trend in advanced and growing countries around the globe. This phenomenon has altered several aspects of social, economic, political and biomedical dynamic. In public health, there’s need to understand the challenge to society due to this multifaceted dynamics in a holistic way. High blood pressure is recognized as the most leading risk element for chronic diseases. It is considered as one of the modifiable risk factor for life threatening conditions likeheart failure, coronary artery disease, chronic renal failure and cerebrovascular disease. Apart from the properly-mounted reasons of hypertension, markers of oral inflammation, which include periodontal diseases and tooth loss are independently associated with high blood pressure. However this opinion is still not conclusive. Objective-To find association of tooth loss and hypertension in middle and old aged population. Methodology-A cross-sectional study was conducted among individuals who were aged above 40 years and reported to the Outpatient Department of the Kothiwal Dental College and Research Centre Moradabad. The study procedure included face to face interview using prestructured questionnaire which included demographic characteristics (age, sex, education, marital status, area of residence), socioeconomic status, health-related behaviour, periodontal status. Hypertension and diabetes were recorded as reported by the participants. Results- Partial tooth loss was found associated with hypertension on crude comparison.24% of participants with partial tooth loss had hypertension, but after adjusting confounding variables there was no statistical significant association between partial tooth loss and hypertension(OR 0.829; 95%CI:0.348-1.586) with p- value =0.977. Conclusion-Hypertension was higher among the participants with partial tooth loss. But there was not found independent association between tooth loss and hypertension. Keywords- Hypertension; Tooth loss

Gingival overgrowth commonly seen in clinics can be categorized as generalized or localized. Peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) is tumor like, non-neoplastic reactive intra-osseous lesion occurring in the gingiva or alveolar mucosa and is characterized by an un-encapsulated proliferation of mononuclear polygonal cells which are spindle-shaped with osteoclast-type multinucleated giant cells in a vascular background. This is a case report of 28 year old female with peripheral giant cell granuloma in mandibular anterior region. The lesion was completely excised to the periosteum level and no recurrence was seen in 1 month follow up.

Background: Use of high speed ultrasonics work under high pressure which generates spatter and aerosols, contaminate the surroundings with various infectious agents. To reduce the infectious agents several procedures such as protective barriers, high volume evacuation device and prerinse. Ozonated water is antimicrobial and biocompatible making it suitable as pre-rinse dental use. Chlorhexidine is effective against broad spectrum bacteria attributing to its bicationic inhibitory action, bacterial cell protein chelation and high substantivity in the oral environment. This study aims to evaluate efficacy and microbial content of aerosols after prerinse with Ozonated water and 0.12% chlorhexidine as coolant in ultrasonic scalers. Methodology: 40 participants were assigned to each group randomly Group A, Group B, Group C and Group D. Blood agar plates were placed on the chest of patients before the start of procedure. Group A pre rinse+ Chlorhexidine as coolant Group B pre rinse+ Distilled Water as coolant Group C Chlorhexidine as coolant Group D Distilled Water as coolant After gravimetric settling, blood agar plates were transferred to the laboratory for incubation at 37°C for 48 h, followed by a colony‑counting procedure by the microbiologist. Results: Chlorhexidine as ultrasonic coolant with prerinse with ozonized water significantly reduces the microbial content of aerosols generated during scaling when compared with distilled water and without pre rinse. Conclusion: Prerinsing with efficient antimicrobial mouthrinse before dental procedure minimizes the risk of infectious agent cross-contamination in the dental operatory.

The gingiva is frequently the site of localised growths that are thought to be reactive rather than neoplastic. Many of these lesions are difficult to identify clinically and can only be identified as a distinct entity based on typical and consistent histomorphology. One such reactive lesion is peripheral ossifying fibroma. It has been described using various synonyms and is thought to arise from the periodontal ligament, which accounts for approximately 9% of all gingival growths. The lesion is typically small in size, located primarily in the anterior maxilla, with a higher predilection for females, and is more common in the second decade of life. A 11-year-old boy with a large peripheral ossifying fibroma in the anterior maxilla with significant growth and interference with occlusion is presented in this case report.

Background and objectives: Dermatoglyphics are the dermal ridge configuration on the digits, palms and soles. Dermatoglyphics may be used as an easily accessible tool in the study of genetically induced diseases as genetic or chromosomal defects may be expressed as alterations in dermal ridges. They are genetically determined and influenced by environmental forces that are operating before birth. Several studies have shown an association between dermatoglyphics and different types of cancer. Hence this study was undertaken to determine whether specific dermatoglyphic patterns exist that help in predicting the occurrence of oral squamous cell carcinoma. Aim: This study was conducted to study palmar and dermatoglyphic patterns in oral carcinomas patients in Bareilly city. Material and method: Our study was conducted among 59 subjects having oral cancer in Bareilly city. A modified case history proforma and comprehensive history was taken. Finger and palm prints were collected from Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) patients using the digital method and were evaluated qualitatively and quantitatively using an appropriate statistical test. Results: Finger and palm prints were evaluated qualitatively and quantitatively. Significant findings in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma in both hands were: Increased frequency of Loops and whorls, Loop patterns are common in Thenar/I1 area, Increased Total finger ridge count on the right hand, increased ab count on the left hand, more atd angle on the left hand. Conclusion: Our study concluded that dermatoglyphic patterns may have a role in identifying individuals either with or at risk for developing oral squamous cell carcinoma. It can be used to identify high-risk group so that early primary and secondary preventive measures can be instituted to prevent the occurrence of these lesions.

Hence this study was undertaken to determine whether specific dermatoglyphic patterns exist that help in predicting the occurrence of oral squamous cell carcinoma. \u0000Aim: This study was conducted to study palmar and dermatoglyphic patterns in oral carcinomas patients in Bareilly city. \u0000Material and method: Our study was conducted among 59 subjects having oral cancer in Bareilly city. A modified case history proforma and comprehensive history was taken. Finger and palm prints were collected from Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) patients using the digital method and were evaluated qualitatively and quantitatively using an appropriate statistical test. \u0000Results: Finger and palm prints were evaluated qualitatively and quantitatively. Significant findings in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma in both hands were: Increased frequency of Loops and whorls, Loop patterns are common in Thenar/I1 area, Increased Total finger ridge count on the right hand, increased ab count on the left hand, more atd angle on the left hand. \u0000Conclusion: Our study concluded that dermatoglyphic patterns may have a role in identifying individuals either with or at risk for developing oral squamous cell carcinoma. It can be used to identify high-risk group so that early primary and secondary preventive measures can be instituted to prevent the occurrence of these lesions.","PeriodicalId":100856,"journal":{"name":"King Saud University Journal of Dental Sciences","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78434382","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
