The Efficacy Of Copper Iodide Nanoparticle-Augmented Mta Against Enterococcus Faecalis: A Confocal Microscopy Study, Craig Alan Atchison
The Efficacy Of Copper Iodide Nanoparticle-Augmented Mta Against Enterococcus Faecalis: A Confocal Microscopy Study, Craig Alan Atchison
MUSC Theses and Dissertations
Introduction: The introduction of metallic nanoparticles such as copper into medical materials has shown promising results in terms of antimicrobial activity. A novel material incorporating nanoparticles could be useful in combating bacterial biofilms and improving long-term success rates in endodontic therapies. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antibacterial effect of mineral trioxide aggregate disks augmented with copper iodide nanoparticles on a biofilm of E. faecalis and compare the results with non-augmented control MTA in the same conditions using confocal laser scanning microscopy. Methods: Fabricated disks were made up of control, non-augmented MTA or copper iodide nanoparticle-augmented MTA …
Evaluation Of Resin Sealer Penetration Of Dentin Following Different Final Rinses For Endodontic Irrigation Using Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy, Omar Ezzaldin Abusteit

Introduction: The aim of the study was to directly assess the depth of sealer penetration into dentinal tubules following different final rinses and indirectly evaluate precipitation of irrigating solutions. Materials and Methods: 52 extracted maxillary incisors were prepared to size 40/04 crown down with 6% sodium hypochlorite irrigating solution. Teeth were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=13) according to the final rinse. Group 1- 17% EDTA, saline and 2% Chlorhexidine solution; Group 2- SmearOFFâ„¢; Group 3- QMix®; Group 4- control with saline. Each final rinse was 3 ml over 1 minute placed with a 30-gauge needle 3 mm short from …
The Effect Of Canal Preparation On Fill Length In Straight Root Canals Obturated With Guttacore®, Robert Bryan Whitten
The Effect Of Canal Preparation On Fill Length In Straight Root Canals Obturated With Guttacore®, Robert Bryan Whitten
MUSC Theses and Dissertations
Introduction: A common critique of using thermoplasticized obturators is the incidence of overextension. It would be of benefit to clinicians to have a technique for canal preparation that would allow for predictable length control. This study compared straight canals instrumented to a size 40 file using a 0.04 standardized taper preparation (STP) with a varied taper preparation (VTP) by evaluating the extension of GuttaCore® (GC) obturators (Dentsply Tulsa Dental, Tulsa, OK). Methods: Eighty extracted mature human premolars with single straight canals were randomly divided into 2 experimental groups (n = 40). Group 1 was instrumented to size 40/.04 at working …
Sexual Dimorphism In Periapical Inflammation And Bone Loss From Map Kinase Phosphatase-1 Deficient Mice, Justin Mcabee
Sexual Dimorphism In Periapical Inflammation And Bone Loss From Map Kinase Phosphatase-1 Deficient Mice, Justin Mcabee
MUSC Theses and Dissertations
Introduction: Mitogen Activating Protein (MAPK) kinase phosphatase-1 (MKP-1) has been shown to be a key negative regulator of the MAP kinase pathways of the innate immune system. The impact of MKP-1 in an endodontic model has yet to be studied. Thus, the purpose of this study was to determine the role of MKP-1 in a bacterial-driven model of pathological endodontic bone loss. Methods: Pulps were exposed in both lower 1st molars of 10-week old Dusp-1+1+IMKP-1 +1+ and Dusp-1-1-IMKP-1-1- mice and left open to the oral environment for either 3 or 8 weeks. At sacrifice, mandibles were harvested and scanned by …

The Effect Of Canal Preparation On Fill Length In Straight Root Canals Obturated With Realseal 1 And Thermafil Plus, Thomas John Heeren
MUSC Theses and Dissertations
Introduction: A common adverse effect using thermoplasticized obturators is overextension. A canal preparation allowing for predictable obturation length would be of clinical value. This study compared straight canals instrumented to a size 40 file using a 0.04 standardized taper preparation (STP) and a varied taper preparation (VTP) by evaluating the extension of two thermoplastic obturation systems: RealSeall ™ (RS-l) and Thermafil® Plus (TP). Methods: Eighty extracted mature human premolars with single straight canals were randomly divided into 4 experimental groups (n=20). Groups 1 and 2 were instrumented to size 40/04 at working length (WL) with STP. Groups 3 and 4 …

The Effect Of Canal Preparation On Fill Length In Curved Root Canals Obturated With Realseal 1 And Thermafil Plus, David Woodard
MUSC Theses and Dissertations
Introduction: A preparation technique allowing for a predictable thermoplastic obturation length while ensuring a three-dimensional fill would be of clinical value. Methods: This in vitro study was conducted using 80 extracted mature and patent human 1st and 2nd maxillary and mandibular molar teeth with mesiobuccal (MB) roots exhibiting 20°- 45° canal curvature using Schneider's method. Teeth were randomly divided into 4 experimental groups (n=20). Groups 1 and 3 were prepared using a standard taper preparation (STP) to size 40/04 at working length (WL). Groups 2 and 4 were prepared using a varied taper preparation (VTP) to size 40/02 at WL. …
