This work sought to study the prevalence of non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) in a Burkinabe population consulting at the Municipal Oral Health Center of Ouagadougou. This was a descriptive cross-sectional study. It was carried out between August 1, 2020, and October 31, 2020. The study population consisted of all adult patients regardless of the reason for consultation. The diagnoses of abrasion, erosion, and abfraction were based on the morphology of the clinical forms of each of these lesions as already described in the literature. During the study period, 595 patients were examined and 82 of them had at least one NCCL, for an overall prevalence of 13.8%. Abrasion lesions were the encountered the most (47.4%), followed by abfractions (27.1%) and erosions diagnosed in 25.5% of cases. NCCLs are pathologies of the neck of the tooth that is of great concern both in terms their clinical and etiological diagnosis as well as their therapy. The prevalence reported in this study is of importance to all oral health professionals, who need to be well aware that NCCL is increasingly a major reason for seeking care.

The progressive breakdown of mineralized tooth tissue caused by overactive resorptive cells is known as root resorption. Root resorption can be divided into two types: Normal and pathologic. In most of cases of internal resorption and external inflammatory resorption root canal therapy is indicated. It may or may not be indicated in cases of invasive resorption, and it is not suggested in cases of replacement or pressure resorption (unless unrelated pulpal conditions necessitate endodontic intervention). Early detection and treatment of these defects might be beneficial to the patient and increase the chances of saving the tooth. In this case, report the description of external resorption post-orthodontic treatment has been restored and followed up and has shown a good prognosis.

The purpose of this study was to comparatively evaluate two caries excavation methods-Smartprep(SS White) burs and Carisolv (Carisolv™) by measuring the Vickers hardness of prepared cavity. 40 extracted human molars with moderate occlusal caries were used in this study. Teeth with moderate caries extending till dentin without pulp involvement were selected. RVG was used to assess the depth of the cavity. The samples were divided into 2 groups, Group I by Smart prep burs and Group II using Carisolv. Each groups were subjected to morphological analysis under scanning electron microscope. The samples prepared with Carisolv showed least difference in hardness values between the prepared surface and surrounding dentin compared to Smartprep burs. SEM analysis with Smartprep burs revealed surface covered with debris and smear layer while Carisolv showed rough and scaly surface with large areas with open dentinal tubules. Removal of infected carious dentin was superior when Carisolv was employed as compared to SmartPrep burs. The results concluded that smear layer removal of Carisolv was superior when compared to SmartPrep burs.

The purpose of this case report is to emphasize the importance of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and dental operating microscope for endodontic treatment on mandibular second premolar with three separate roots. In endodontics, the possible existence of extra canals must be considered before endodontic treatment is instituted. A wide morphological variation of the mandibular second premolar is known to exist. The incidence of a three-rooted mandibular second premolar is approximately 0.4%. A 43-year-old female patient was referred for endodontic treatment on the mandibular second premolar. IOPA revealed three roots, and hence for confirmation, a CBCT image was taken and root canal treatment was performed under an operating microscope for enhanced visualization. This case report describes the successful endodontic treatment of a mandibular second premolar with three separate roots and canals filled using gutta-percha and AH Plus. Clinical significance: Conventional endodontic treatment can be performed on a tooth with complex root canal morphology using an operating microscope.

The objective of this in vitro study was to evaluate and compare the staining potential of 5% sodium fluoride varnish and coffee beverage on the tooth-colored restorative materials. Standardized Class V cavities were prepared on the tooth surface on both buccal and lingual/palatal surfaces and were restored with Glass ionomer cement (GIC), resin-modified GIC (RMGIC), and resin composite. The control group (n = 7) of each restoration was stored in artificial saliva. The experimental groups (n = 7) of each of the restoratives were subjected to the application of 5% sodium fluoride and were analyzed for discoloration using the visual method. In the second part of the study, 5% NaF was applied on all the restorations, namely, GIC, RMGIC, and Resin Composite. The control groups of each (n = 7) were then stored in artificial saliva and the experimental groups of each (n = 7) were immersed in coffee. After the period of immersion, the control, as well as the experimental groups, were analyzed for staining using the visual method. Data obtained were statistically analyzed using the Chi-square test. All the experimental groups were stained up to a visually perceptive level (P = 0.029) when compared to the control group. However, the intergroup comparison of experimental groups was statistically non-significant. Furthermore, RMGIC showed better stain resistance with coffee after application of 5% NaF than GIC and resin composite, although it was not statistically significant. 5% NaF application resulted in a shade change of all the restoratives tested in the study up to a visually perceptive level. The fluoride application did not significantly influence the staining potential of coffee in the restoratives tested.
