Aim: This study aimed to describe the various protocols for treating class II/1 malocclusion, determine the one-phase and two-phase treatment approaches, and identify the best time to provide effective and efficient treatment. Materials and Methods: An electronic search in four major databases—PubMed, Scopus, ScieLo, and Google Scholar—was completed on March 4, 2021. A search was performed on the orthodontic treatment of class II/1 over the last 10 years, and 2002 papers were obtained. Results: A total of 52 journal articles matched the inclusion criteria. Class II/1 malocclusion was more commonly found with class II/1 skeletal analysis, and one-phase treatment was preferred over two-phase treatment. One of the keys to successful treatment is the effectiveness of the treatment, which depends on the time of the treatment intervention and the appliance used. Conclusions: Determination of treatment is highly dependent on the characteristics of the malocclusion, age, and remaining growth. Due to the complexity of the case, knowledge and experience are needed in managing class II malocclusion.

Aim: To describe the different uses of lactoferrin for a possible implementation in dentistry. Materials and Methods: An electronic search was performed in the Scopus and PubMed databases between 1997 and 2021. The keywords included in the search were “lactoferrin”, “lactoferrin in vitro”, “osseointegration”, and “bone regeneration”. Only articles in which the osteogenic properties of lactoferrin in bone regeneration were related were selected for the present literature review. During the search, several articles were observed in this field that were included as pilot studies, retrospective cohort studies, and case–control studies that referred to the clinical process. Results: A total of 12 articles, comprising seven animal studies and five in vitro studies, were chosen for the results of this literature review. Of all the articles, eight were utilized in the introduction, of which six were excluded from the results. Conclusion: Based on the current limitations of this literature review, there is inadequate evidence to support the efficacy of lactoferrin in oral surgery. However, there is existing evidence of its potential effectiveness in bone regeneration in various fields.

Aim: To assess the effectiveness of various polishing systems on nanohybrid and microhybrid composite restorative materials. Materials and Methods: The present study was an experimental in vitro analysis. A total of 64 cylindrical specimens were divided based on random sampling method into two groups: Group I (n = 32): micro hybrid composite Te-ecoconom Plus (IvoclarVivadent) and Group II (n = 32): nanohybrid composite Beautifil II (Shofu Inc.). The two groups were further subdivided on the basis of polishing system used into four subgroups. The control subgroup (n = 8) did not receive any finishing or polishing. Subgroup A (n = 8)—Sof-Lex XT (3M ESPE). Subgroup B (n = 8)—OneGloss (Shofu Inc.). Subgroup C (n = 8)—Super-Snap X-TREME Technique Kit (Shofu Inc.). A surface profilometer was used to evaluate the surface roughness following the finishing and polishing processes. The measured value was analyzed using independent sample t test. The findings were computed using SPSS Software version 20. Results: On comparing the composites and polishing systems using independent sample t test, it was found that Beautifil II group using Super-Snap X-TREME polishing system showed a significant difference when compared to the Beautifil II group using OneGloss system and the Te-econom Plus group using the Super-Snap X-TREME system generating P value of 0.009 and 0.004, respectively, which is <0.05 hence considered to be statistically significant. Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study, the nanohybrid composite resin showed a better polishability as compared with the micro hybrid composite. The three polishing system used significantly influenced the surface roughness with Super-Snap X-TREME, Sof-Lex multistep polishing system producing a smoother surface compared to OneGloss one step polishing system.

Aim: Self-ligating brackets have gained popularity in the field of orthodontics over the last decade. One of the proposed advantages of the self-ligating method is the overall cleanliness of the appliance as there will be less plaque accumulation due to the absence of elastomeric rings. This review aimed to look into the effect of this system on overall oral health. Materials and Methods: Data have been collected regarding the comparison of the self-ligating bracket system to conventional techniques in relation to root resorption, dental caries, and periodontal impact. Data were obtained by an electronic search through databases of PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar. The initial search retrieved 35 articles. After a full-text review of all the articles, only 14 were included. Results: This review article contributes to the knowledge of the effect of this system on oral tissues and its advantages and disadvantages over conventional bracket systems. In regard to root resorption, the time duration of the treatment is a more important factor than the type of bracket system used. In regard to dental caries, evidence suggests a self-ligating bracket system shows less accumulation of Streptococcus mutans when compared to a conventional bracket system. Conclusion: In the present review, the findings indicated that in relation to periodontal health self-ligating brackets are not superior to conventional brackets.

Aim: There has been a search for bioactive, biocompatible material for quite some time now which can be utilized for various endodontic procedures for better palliative care of teeth. These materials could reduce the chances of extraction of teeth. Here we will discuss the journey of MTA (mineral trioxide aggregate) as a unique, bio-active material from inception till now in pediatric dental practice. Materials and Methods: Web-based databases such as Scopus, Web of Science, and PubMed were explored from January 2012 till June 2022. Thus found types of writeups were review articles. This review article will give an insight into MTA—its evolution and use in pediatric dentistry. The following search terms were used: MTA (all fields, MeSH terms), AND pediatric dentistry (all fields) (MesH terms, all fields) AND advances (all fields) OR “Mineral” and “Trioxide” and “Aggregate” (all fields) OR pediatric and “Dentistry” (all fields) or “Advances.” An electronic literature search in PubMed database using the free-text terms “MTA”, and “Pediatric Dentistry” showed 253 articles from 2012 to 2022, of which 30 were review articles and systematic reviews. Results: The initial search retrieved 531 articles. After a full-text review of all the articles, only 12 were included. The original MTA has some known disadvantages, such as prolonged setting time, being expensive, and can lead to discoloration of tooth later in time. Owing to the disadvantages of the material, researchers have been searching materials which can show improved physiological, chemomechanical, and better biologic characteristics. Conclusion: MTA has come a long way as a bioceramic, bioactive material with improved physical and chemical properties. The introduction of newer fast-setting MTA and pre-mixed MTA have shown excellent handling properties. MTA is now getting more attention in pediatric dentistry as a bioactive agent with the scope for many studies and clinical trials.

Aim: The present study investigated the efficacy of Camellia sinensis regarding its antifungal activity toward Candida albicans and compared the various forms such as Japanese green tea, Chinese Oolong tea, Sabha black tea, and Sri Lanka black tea in relation to their antifungal property toward C. albicans. Materials and Methods: In this in vitro experimental study, the C. albicans were grown and maintained in their respective agar. Four different concentrations of 500 mg/mL and 250 mg/mL aqueous solution; 250 mg/mL ethanolic solution and 250 mg/mL methanolic solutions were prepared from four different forms of C. sinensis such as Japanese green tea, Oolong Chinese tea, Sabah black tea, and Sri Lanka black tea. The Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method determined the activity of tea. The standard drug of Nystatin 100 IU (international units) was used as the positive control. After an incubation period of 48 h at 37ºC, the zone of inhibition was measured in millimeters. Results: Japanese green tea at its aqueous concentrations of 500 mg/mL and 250 mg/mL exhibited significantly higher mean zone of inhibition of 20.63 mm and 20.92 mm, respectively against C. albicans at P < 0.001. However, a mean zone of inhibition of 21.26 mm was shown by positive control Nystatin. Conclusion: The aqueous extract of Japanese green tea showed higher antifungal activity against C. albicans in comparison to black teas.

Aim: To assess the canal transportation and centering ability of different retreatment rotary files with the help of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). Materials and Methods: Forty single-rooted human mandibular premolars with mean curvature of less than 20° apically were selected. Root canal preparation was done until size F2 (ProTaper Universal, Dentsply Sirona, Swiss), obturated using AH Plus resin-based sealer, and randomly divided into two groups. Hyflex Remover files and Solite RS3 retreatment files (Solite Dental, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India) were used to remove root canal fillings, and CBCT scan was done to analyze the canal centering and transportation ratio. The data obtained were tabulated and evaluated using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software program, version 23.0 (IBM, Chicago, Illinois). Results: Between the two groups, a statistically significant difference was seen in the mesiodistal and buccolingual direction in relation to canal centering ability (P < 0.05, significant). Moreover, no significant difference was evident for canal transportation. Conclusion: It was noticed that both retreatment systems produced some deviation from the root canal curvature in mandibular premolars with regard to canal transportation capabilities. However, SoliteRS3 heat-treated retreatment group had clinically acceptable canal centering ratio values after the root canal filling material has been removed.

Materials and Methods: Forty single-rooted human mandibular premolars with mean curvature of less than 20° apically were selected. Root canal preparation was done until size F2 (ProTaper Universal, Dentsply Sirona, Swiss), obturated using AH Plus resin-based sealer, and randomly divided into two groups. Hyflex Remover files and Solite RS3 retreatment files (Solite Dental, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India) were used to remove root canal fillings, and CBCT scan was done to analyze the canal centering and transportation ratio. The data obtained were tabulated and evaluated using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software program, version 23.0 (IBM, Chicago, Illinois). Results: Between the two groups, a statistically significant difference was seen in the mesiodistal and buccolingual direction in relation to canal centering ability (P < 0.05, significant). Moreover, no significant difference was evident for canal transportation.

Aim: To determine the anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activity of Glycyrrhiza glabra incorporated in a soft-liner that can be used as denture relining material. Materials and Methods: 3 g of the powdered G. glabra leaves were added to 100 mL of deionized water and filtered after boiling at 100°C for 10 min and the filtrate was boiled until it was reduced to 10 mL. The soft-liner liquid and G. glabra were then blended in proportions of 5 and 10 v/v%, and the mixtures were stirred for 24 h in a closed container. Sample preparation was done for surface roughness, contact angle, and antimicrobial activity: direct Glycyrrhiza solution was taken as a sample for an anti-inflammatory test. A well-diffusion method was performed to determine the antimicrobial effect. Anti-inflammatory activity was determined by inhibition of albumin denaturation assay, wettability through contact angle using a Telescopic Goniometer, surface roughness using a profilometer, and tensile bond strength by using UTM (Instron, ElectroPuls, E3000). All of the groups were compared by doing a one-way analysis of variance, an independent t test was used for comparing two experimental groups. Results: Statistically significant antibacterial property was noted (P <0.05). The maximum concentration of G. glabra’s anti-inflammatory activity was found to be 81% without altering its physical or mechanical properties (P > 0.05). Conclusion: Glycyrrhiza glabra incorporated soft-liner will be a better alternative of conventional softener.
