Root canals were prepared with ProTaper Universal files (Dentsply Sirona, Ballaigues, Switzerland) and obturated with labeled sealer mixed with 0.1% Rhodamine B and gutta percha according to single cone techniques. Initial root canal filling material was removed using ProTaper Universal Retreatment files and F4 files. Teeth randomly were divided into 3 groups (n = 15) depending on the activation technique: CNI, EA (Dentsply, Tulsa Dental Specialties, Tulsa, OK), and EDDY (VDW, Munich, Germany). Confocal laser microscopy was used to evaluate the penetration area, depth, and percentage of the residual sealer in the apical, middle, and coronal sections after irrigation activation. \u0000Results: In all sections, the EDDY group had a lower penetration area of residual sealer than the CNI group (P< .05). In comparison to the coronal section, the penetration percentage of the CNI and EA groups was lower in the apical section (P< .05). In the CNI group, the penetration depth was higher at the coronal section than at the apical and middle sections (P< .05), and it was higher at the coronal section than at the apical section. \u0000Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study, none of the activation systems tested could completely remove the residual sealer. However, the lowest residual sealer was seen after using EA and EDDY.","PeriodicalId":10192,"journal":{"name":"Clinical and Experimental Health Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43912673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to evaluate and compare the effect of different agents on enamel remineralization in-vitro. \u0000Methods: Thirty-five enamel blocks were prepared and divided into the following groups: Group 1; CaGp and Xylitol-containing gel (R.O.C.S Medical Mineral Gel), Group 2; 1100 ppm NaF and 10% CPP-ACP toothpaste (MI Paste One), Group 3; 0.45% SnF2-1150 ppm F toothpaste (Enamelon), Group 4; Positive Control-1450 ppm NaF toothpaste (Colgate Total) and Group 5; Negative Control (deionized water). Microhardness was measured at baseline, after demineralization, and after respective treatments for different treatment groups using a digital Micro Vickers Hardness Tester. For producing demineralized lesions, samples were stored in acidic hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC, pH=4.8) for three days. The Paired Sample t-test, one-way ANOVA, and Tukey were used to compare data and SMH recovery (%SMHR) calculated among treatments. \u0000Results: The mean baseline surface microhardness value was statistically non-significant between the groups (p=.378). CaGP and Xylitolcontaining gel demonstrated having the most protective effect against demineralization. The surface remineralization potential of 1100 ppm NaF and 10% CPP-ACP containing novel toothpaste (MI Paste One) was almost similar to the positive control (1450 ppm Fluoride toothpaste)group (p>.05). \u0000Conclusions: All treatment groups showed remineralization after respective treatments and these agents can be used as an effective preventive measure for pediatric patients.","PeriodicalId":10192,"journal":{"name":"Clinical and Experimental Health Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48426198","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to investigate the awareness and knowledge of post-graduate dental students (PDSs) from different specialty/doctoral programs towards MRONJ. \u0000Methods: An electronic questionnaire containing 28 questions in 3 different sections focusing on demographic characteristics, general information, and clinical attitude, was prepared. Two-thousand PDSs from 27 universities were invited to participate in the survey in December 2021.
