Aim: To study the effectiveness of photo activated disinfection (PAD) Disinfection Versus Calcium Hydroxide Disinfection in Regeneration of Immature Infected Teeth. Material and Methods:30 patients with immature, single rooted teeth appearing with or without signs and/or symptoms of periapical pathology were involved in the study. Cases were classified into three groups according to the disinfection protocol, ten patients each group (n=10). Group I: Calcium hydroxide (Ca (OH)) was injected in the canal after drying the canal with sterile paper points. Group II: Photosensitizers (Azulenocyanine) was inserted in the canals and agitated in the canal, then activated with diode …


Comparison Of Two Different Methods In The Removal Of Oil-Based Calcium Hydroxide From Root Canal System: A Triple-Blinded Randomised Clinical Trial, Momina Motiwala, Sheikh Bilal Badar, Rabia Ghafoor Mar 2021

Section of Dental-Oral Maxillofacial Surgery

Objective: To compare the effectiveness of rotary master apical file (RMAF) with ultrasonic activation of endodontic file (UAF) in the removal of silicon oil-based calcium hydroxide (SOBCH) from the canal.
Methods: Ethical review committee approval and informed consent was obtained. 60 cases with necrotic teeth in which silicon oil-based intracanal medicament (Metapex) was to be placed were randomised in one of the two groups using sealed envelopes containing assignment codes for medicament removal: RMAF and UAF group. After standard protocol of coronal access, cleaning and shaping, silicon oil-based SOBCH was placed using a Lentulo spiral. A periapical radiograph was taken …


Assessment The Propolis Effect Versus Calcium Hydroxide Effect As Intracanal Medications On Post-Operative Pain In Necrotic Teeth, Engy M. Kataia Jan 2021

Assessment The Propolis Effect Versus Calcium Hydroxide Effect As Intracanal Medications On Post-Operative Pain In Necrotic Teeth, Engy M. Kataia

Dentistry

Aim: to evaluate the postoperative pain of using Propolis versus Calcium hydrox- ide as intracanal medications on post-operative pain in necrotic teeth. Subjects and Methods: 40 patients requiring endodontic treatment for single rooted teeth were en- rolled in this analysis. The selected patients were separated into two groups with 20 pa- tients each; Group І: Propolis paste. Group II: Ca (OH)2 paste. The local anesthesia was administrated, and the working length determined by Root ZX apex locator, and then confirmed radiographically. The root canals were mechanically prepared in a crown- down approach using the “TF Adaptive” setting on Elements Motor. …


Chemical, Physical, And Antibacterial Properties Of Contemporary Pulp Capping Materials, Yu-Yin Lin Jan 2021

Chemical, Physical, And Antibacterial Properties Of Contemporary Pulp Capping Materials, Yu-Yin Lin

All ETDs from UAB

The purpose of this project was to compare the chemical, physical, and antibacterial properties of right contemporary direct pulp capping materials. The material categories included in this study were calcium hydroxide (Dycal, Lime-Lite and Ultra-Blend plus), calcium silicate (MTA Angelus, Biodentine, TheraCal LC), calcium aluminate (Ceramir Protect LC), and resin ionomer (Bio-Cap). Calcium release and pH changes were measured via a calcium ion-selective electrode (Vernier Company) and pH sensor (Vernier Company) respectively, after specimens were immersed in 36.8oC deionized water for 1, 7, 28 and 90 days. Water solubility was calculated with weight loss of the specimens from 0 to …
