Ideally, dental post should have stiffness that is similar to the crown at the coronal part and stiffness similar to the dentine at the apical part. This will reduce stress concentration at either coronal or the apical parts of the dentine and minimize the chance of interfacial loosening and enhance the reliability of post. Objective: To investigate the biomechanical behaviour of Multilayered Structured Dental Posts (MSDPs) using finite element analysis (FEA). Methods: Two models of MSDPs consist of multilayer design of xTi-yHA composition added to a zirconia layer (model A) and the same compositions added to alumina layer (model B) …

The case report, which has a long history in medicine, has seen its fortune wax and wane with time. We discuss the challenges facing the continued survival of the case report, including the inability of journals to cope with the increased load and increased cost of publication, ethical issues, the impact factor and the rise of evidence-based medicine. We highlight the important role that the case report will continue to play in medical research and education, as a means of sharing information and detecting novelty through observations. Most importantly, the case report serves as a stepping stone for young physicians …
