Would Access Cavity Design Affect The Mechanical Behaviour Of Tooth : A Finite Element Study., Muhammad Ashraf Elhusseini, Engy Kataia, Hala Khalil
International Arab Journal of Dentistry
Two distinct access cavity designs were used to access Two simulated finite element models (FE). (Lingual (LAC) and incisal (IAC)). Three experimental FE models, including the IT model, were developed: LAC and IAC. For every simulated model, one distinct radicular preparations was carried out of size #30/.04. The incisal edge was subjected to an occlusal cycle load of 120 N. The maximum von mises stresses (VMS), maximum principal stresses (MPS), and stress distribution patterns were assessed and calculated quantitatively. It was concluded that the mandibular incisor's biomechanical behavior is significantly influenced by the size of the access design. Biomechanically the …

Comparative Evaluation Of Efficacy Of Topical Ozonated Olive Oil And Topical Chlorhexidine Gluconate In Management Of Recurrent Aphthous Stomatitis., Prasanna Ravindra Sonar, Aarati Panchbhai, Anil Ghom, Sudhir Dole
International Arab Journal of Dentistry
Aphthous stomatitis is also known as canker sores or aphthae. Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS), frequently manifests as superficial, oval, painful ulcers with a pseudomembranous base that is yellowish-gray and has an erythematous halo [1-2]. These uncomfortable lesions may have a significant impact on dental hygiene, speech, and eating. Hence, the lesions may have an even greater influence on living quality than only the discomfort they cause [3-5]. Even though the lesion normally heals on its own, the pain from the aphthae causes severe morbidity.
This disease entity is caused by multifactorial etiologies, which include inherited, environmental, infections caused by various …

Nasoalveolar Molding ; A Rise In Early Management Of Newborn Patient With Cleft Lip And Palate, Reeya Agrawal, Dr Pallavi Daigavane, Dr Amit Reche
International Arab Journal of Dentistry
Orofacial clefts are one of the most frequent congenital oral and maxillofacial abnormalities. When these babies are roughly three months old, lip rebuilding , also known as cheiloplasty, is a critical concern. In several cleft facilities ,To improve the treatment success, Presurgical Nasoalveolar Molding (NAM) has been included in the therapy protocol. In patients with cleft lip and palate, this technique is routinely used to bring the alveolar segments in to normal alignment and improve nasal symmetry.The advantages of utilising this approach as part of a treatment plan for newborns born with cleft lip and palate will be discussed in …

Synopsis On The Role Of Diode Laser In Root Canal Disinfection, Ashraf M. Abu-Seida, Mohamed M.N. El-Tayeb, Elhassan E. Hassanein
International Arab Journal of Dentistry
Effective root canal disinfection is necessary for success of endodontic treatment. Traditional chemo-mechanical techniques such as sodium hypochlorite, mechanical preparation and calcium hydroxide used for intracanal disinfection usually fail in cases of biofilm-related infections. Therefore, several new strategies are applied for root canal disinfection. One of these strategies is using of diode laser that has recently gained significant attention in the endodontic practice due to its antibacterial action, bio-stimulation, decrease of pain and improvement of success. Moreover, it has several advantages like its low cost, easily application, penetration power into dentine and smaller size device compared with other types of …

The newer innovations play an important role in the earlier diagnosis of dental caries based on near-infrared transillumination imaging such as Diagnocam and Soprocare intraoral digital cameras, which aid in the diagnosis of dental caries and also differentiate old and newer dental plaques, respectively. Nanoparticles used as carriers for effective and targeted drug therapies in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and candidiasis among chronic denture wearers provided better-increased bioavailability than oral formulations. Artificial intelligence (AI) uses machines to simulate intelligent human behavior. Augmented reality has been presented as a cognitive extension of AI in health …

Odontomas are an asymptomatic benign odontogenic tumors, generally discovered fortuitously, or when a tooth failed to erupt. They are mainly composed of enamel and dentin, cement and pulp tissue can also be present in variable amounts. In 2005, the World Health Organization classified two main types of odontoma, an amorphous and irregular mass of calcified dental tissues as complexe odontoma and multiple miniature tooth-like structures as compound odontoma. This article is a case presentation of a compound odontoma diagnosed for an eleven year old girl upon a routine radiography, making it a lesion of childhood /adolescence.

Management Of Pulpal Floor Perforation Using Biodentinetm : Case Report, Chaima Bouhajja, Mayada Jemâa, Mohamed Bassem Khattech
Management Of Pulpal Floor Perforation Using Biodentinetm : Case Report, Chaima Bouhajja, Mayada Jemâa, Mohamed Bassem Khattech
International Arab Journal of Dentistry
During endodontic treatment in multi-rooted teeth, furcation perforation refers to an opening in the pulpal floor, leading to a communication with the periodontal ligament space. A three-dimensional hermetic seal, with a biocompatible material, is a key point for the success of pulp floor perforation repair. MTA® has been considered, for a long time, as a gold standard in furcation perforation repair. Besides, BiodentineTM, when used for the same purpose, showed considerable performance and good results. The purpose of this paper was to report the management of an iatrogenic perforation of pulpal floor in the maxillary right first molar, using BiodentineTM.

Distal Cantilever Length Comparison In Esthetic Material For Hybrid Implant Prosthesis: An In Vitro Study., Sana Shams Eddin, Elie Jasser, Mohammad Chams Eddin, Carole Abi Ghosn Yared, Joseph Makzoumi, Paul Boulos
International Arab Journal of Dentistry
Objective: the assessment of distal cantilever length in implant supported infrastructure by comparing the load to fracture in two different framework esthetic materials (Zirconia and Polyetheretherketone (PEEK)) with two different cantilevers loading distances (10mm, 15mm). Material and methods: 20 frameworks were fabricated and divided into 4 groups (n=5): according to the material type Peek, zirconia, and according to the cantilever loading distance (10), or (15) mm and a load-to-fracture test was used until complete fracture of specimens occurs. Results: The effect of material type and cantilever loading distance were statistically significant for the mean load-to-fracture values (P< 0.05). The Zirconia group failed at higher fracture loads (817 N) than the Peek one (651 N). Frameworks with 10 mm cantilever loading distance failed at higher fracture loads than specimens with 15 mm. Conclusion: Peek is a suitable material for all-on-four framework reconstruction in specific situations, and there is a higher success rate when the distal cantilever length is kept at minimal value (10mm).

Effect Of Low Level Laser On Miniscrew Displacement During Canine Retraction. (A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial), Aly Osman, Nadia El Harouni, Mohamed Shokry
International Arab Journal of Dentistry
Background: Anchorage is an important consideration for successful orthodontic treatment. Skeletal anchorage by miniscrews provided better anchorage control then the ordinary extra-oral and intra-oral appliances. However, the stability of the miniscrews are still questionable since they might move under orthodontic loading. Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of low level laser on the miniscrew displacement when subjected to orthodontic force during canine retraction using CBCT. Methods: Twelve patients who required bilateral extraction of upper first premolar and absolute anchorage were recruited from the outpatient clinics of the Department of Orthodontics, Faculty of Dentistry, Beirut Arab …
