The aim of this study was to systematically compare the bond strength of self-adhesive and self-etch or total-etch resin cement to zirconia. The PubMed, ISI (all), and Scopus databases were searched for the selected keywords up to November 1, 2021, without date or language restrictions. In vitro studies comparing the bond strength of self-adhesive and self-etch or total-etch resin cement to zirconia were eligible for inclusion in the study. The selected articles were divided into four groups based on the type of resin cement and the storage time. Statistical analysis was performed using the Biostat Comprehensive Meta-Analysis Software version 2 (α = 0.05). The effect of conventional cement ( Glass Ionomer (GI), Resin Modified Glass Ionomer (RMGI) and zinc phosphate) was analyzed using descriptive analysis. The initial search yielded 376 articles, of which 26 were selected after a methodological assessment. Two reviewers independently extracted data and assessed the risk of bias. The results showed that the immediate or delay bond strength of the self-adhesive resin cement to zirconia has no significant difference with the bond strength of self-etch resin cement to zirconia. The immediate and delay bond strength of total-etch cement-zirconia was significantly lower than that of self-adhesive cement-zirconia (P = 0.00). A descriptive analysis of the selected articles showed that the bond strength of self-adhesive resin cement to zirconia was significantly higher than total-etch cement. The results of the meta-analysis showed that both self-adhesive and self-etch resin cement (if applied according to their manufacturer’s instruction) are suitable for bonding to zirconia.

This case report highlights the intricate anatomy of root canals and the challenges they pose for clinicians. A 26-year-old female patient presented to the department with a chief complaint of pain in her left upper back tooth region. After thorough clinical and radiographical examinations, the diagnosis of pulpal necrosis with symptomatic apical periodontitis in the maxillary left first molar was confirmed. An intraoperative cone-beam computed tomography was performed. The axial imaging unveiled that there were, two distal (DB1 and DB2) canals, two palatal (P1 and P2) canals, and three mesiobuccal (MB1, MB2, and MB3) canals. The appearance of a convoluted root canal configuration serves to highlight the inherent complexity that clinicians may encounter during endodontic procedures. However, when this complexity is further compounded by the incident of separation of root canal instruments, the challenges faced by clinicians become significantly more demanding. It exemplifies the increased difficulty posed by the combination of tortuous root canal morphology and the additional complication of instrument separation, highlighting the importance of careful management and precise techniques in such scenarios and the significance of modern adjuncts, into the diagnostic process and magnification in the surgical and endodontic therapy.

Apexification is a technique used to create a mineralized barrier in a root having an open apex or to continue the apical growth of a root that is still not fully developed in teeth with necrotic pulps. Biodentine is a versatile material which can help in achieving apical closure as well as reinforcement of thin dentinal walls, thus improving the overall prognosis and preserving the natural dentition. In the present case, the radiographic evaluation showed thinner dentinal walls and an open apex with periapical radiolucency in relation to the upper right central incisor. The large open root apex and thin dentin walls of immature permanent teeth render them challenging to treat with root canal therapy. This case report describes a modified single-step apexification procedure and strengthening of the dentinal walls of the root canal using Biodentine.

Instrumentation and irrigation balance helps in effective removal of endodontic microbes housing inside the smear layer. This study aimed to (1) evaluate whether activation of the irrigating solutions with two different systems during the final irrigation step can lead to smear layer formation in the middle and apical third of the root canal and (2) evaluate and compare the smear layer removal ability of the aqueous extracts of Emblica officinalis and Morinda citrifolia. A total of 72 single-rooted teeth were prepared up to F4 ProTaper. The specimens were assigned into eight groups of nine teeth each, according to the final irrigant and activation techniques. Further, the teeth were evaluated under SEM for endodontic smear layer at the middle and apical third. Inferential statistics included Pearson’s Chi-square. Level of significance was set at 0.05 at 95% confidence level. Ultrasonic activation system showed significant (P = 0.000) amount of smear layer compared to XP-Endo Finisher file. A significant difference (P = 0.00) in the smear layer removal was observed when 6% M. citrifolia was activated with XP-Endo Finisher file both in the middle and apical third. Within the limitations of this in vitro study, it can be concluded that smear layer formation was noted with ultrasonic and XP-Endo Finisher file when saline was used as an irrigant. 6% M. citrifolia when activated with XP-Endo Finisher file showed best results among all other experimental groups.

The study aimed to compare and evaluate the effect of biodentine (BD) alone, BD along with Lyophilised freeze dried platelet rich concentrate (LPC + BD), and BD along with low-level laser therapy (BD + LLLT) after pulpotomy in mature permanent molars with irreversible pulpitis. The study was designed as a randomized, pragmatic, parallel, double-blinded clinical trial registered under the Clinical Trial Registry–India (CTRI/2020/02/023245). 120 permanent molars fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria with symptoms of irreversible pulpitis were randomized after performing pulpotomy into three pulp capping groups: Group 1, BD; Group 2, lyophilized freeze-dried platelet-rich concentrate + BD (LPC + BD); and Group 3, Low level laser therapy + BD Group 3, LLLT + BD. The intergroup comparison was done using one-way analysis of variance followed by the Bonferroni test. The level of significance and confidence interval were 5% and 95%, respectively. Interobserver reliability was measured using Cohen’s kappa analysis. At 1 week, there was a significant difference (P < 0.005) observed in the mean postoperative pain levels between the three groups with Group 1 (BD) exhibiting the highest postoperative pain followed by Group 2 (LPC + BD) and least pain was exhibited by Group 3 (LLLT + BD). A similar pattern was observed regarding the analgesic intake with maximum frequency in Group 1 (BD) and least with Group 3 (LLLT + BD). No significant difference in success rates was reported among the groups. Pulpotomy as a treatment option for mandibular molars with irreversible pulpitis has an acceptable clinical success rate; however, long-term overall success rate remains questionable. The outcomes of incorporating adjunctive modalities with BD are remarkable and show tremendous potential for continued development and research.

The study evaluated the antifungal activity of sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), calcium hypochlorite (Ca(OCl)2), and modified salt solution (MSS) assisted with passive ultrasonic irrigation against Candida albicans. One hundred and thirty-six single-rooted premolars were decoronated and enlarged up to a file #45, autoclaved, inoculated with C. albicans, and incubated for 72 h. The samples were randomly distributed into eight groups (n = 17) according to the protocol for decontamination G1: No treatment, G2: Distilled water (DW), G3: 2.5% NaOCl, G4: 2.5% NaOCl + ultrasonic activation (US), G5: 2.5% Ca(OCl)2, G6: 2.5% Ca(OCl)2 + US, G7: MSS, G8: MSS + US. Microbiological testing (Colony forming Unit [CFU] counting) was performed before and after the treatment. Data were subjected to the one-way analysis of variance followed by the Tukey’s post hoc test (P < 0.05). Groups 1 and 2 showed the highest mean contamination (5.41 and 4.31 log10 CFU/mL, respectively), which was statistically different from all the other groups (P < 0.001). G4 showed the lowest mean contamination (0.24 log10 CFU/mL) with statistically significant value (P < 0.001). 2.5% NaOCl with ultrasonic activation can aid in significant fungal reduction. Ultrasonic activation of 2.5% NaOCl, 2.5% Ca(OCl)2, and MSS was also found to have improved antifungal activity against C. albicans.

Calcium hydroxide, which is an intracanal medicament, is widely used in endodontics. Improvements can be made to its effectiveness, as calcium hydroxide is dependent on the vehicle. The study aims to compare and evaluate the release and diffusion ability of calcium hydroxide when mixed with – propolis, chitosan, and propylene glycol. For this study, 33 single-rooted extracted premolar teeth have been decoronated. After the working length and enlargement of the canals had been established, different preparations of calcium hydroxide with vehicles such as propolis, chitosan, and propylene glycol were loaded into the canals. Atomic absorption spectrophotometry was used to analyze the release of calcium ions in three groups, while a digital pH meter was used to determine an acid change. Atomic absorption spectrophotometry showed sustained releases of calcium ions and the digital pH meter showed increased diffusion capacity in the propylene glycol paste group in comparison to the other two groups. Propylene glycol vehicle made it easier to enter calcium hydroxide into the dentinal tubules.

Apexification is a technique used to create a mineralized barrier in a root having an open apex or to continue the apical growth of a root that is still not fully developed in teeth with necrotic pulps. Biodentine is a versatile material which can help in achieving apical closure as well as reinforcement of thin dentinal walls, thus improving the overall prognosis and preserving the natural dentition. In the present case, the radiographic evaluation showed thinner dentinal walls and an open apex with periapical radiolucency in relation to the upper right central incisor. The large open root apex and thin dentin walls of immature permanent teeth render them challenging to treat with root canal therapy. This case report describes a modified single-step apexification procedure and strengthening of the dentinal walls of the root canal using Biodentine.

The aim of minimal intervention dentistry (MID) is to maximize the preservation of dental tissues through the use of modern and effective techniques and procedures. The central objective of MID is to increase the functional life of dental elements and, consequently, the quality of life of the population. The present study aimed to analyze and map the diffusion and clinical application of MID in different continents around the world. To perform this scoping review, the PRISMA checklist was used, adopting the following: population – dentists; concept – effectiveness of MID; and context – continents. The following databases were used: PubMed, European Archives of Paediatric Dentistry, Scientific Electronic Library, Latin Literature American and Caribbean Association in Health Sciences, and SCOPUS. The following keywords were used in the searches: “pediatric dentistry,” “atraumatic restorative treatment,” “dental caries,” “child health,” and “glass ionomer cements” using “and” and “or” combined with “minimal intervention dentistry.” Studies published before 2010 as well as theses, dissertations, opinion articles, editorials, and guidelines, were excluded from the study. A total of 160 articles were obtained, and 17 articles were screened and selected for full reading. The analysis of the studies reveals the disparity in the use of minimal intervention techniques among continents due to a lack of knowledge of these techniques or lack of confidence in changing professional approaches, thus emphasizing the need for the dissemination and teaching of MID.

The aim of minimal intervention dentistry (MID) is to maximize the preservation of dental tissues through the use of modern and effective techniques and procedures. The central objective of MID is to increase the functional life of dental elements and, consequently, the quality of life of the population. The present study aimed to analyze and map the diffusion and clinical application of MID in different continents around the world. To perform this scoping review, the PRISMA checklist was used, adopting the following: population – dentists; concept – effectiveness of MID; and context – continents. The following databases were used: PubMed, European Archives of Paediatric Dentistry, Scientific Electronic Library, Latin Literature American and Caribbean Association in Health Sciences, and SCOPUS.
