We aimed to assess whether dentists’ specialty and university membership impacted the conducts of radiologic practice. Methods: A total of 232 dental offices with intraoral radiographic devices in Mashhad, Iran were randomly selected. Demographic characteristics of dentists as well as radiographic equipment and techniques were recorded. Participants were grouped according to specialty and faculty membership. Chi-square tests were used for statistical analysis and comparison of groups by Statistical Package SPSS v.23. Results: 190 dentists (81.9%) were in general dental practice (GDP) and the remaining 42 (18.1%) worked as specialists in different fields. A significant difference was noted regarding the use of digital sensors between general and specialist dentists (16.8% vs. 35.7%, respectively). Paralleling technique using film holders was employed by 28.6% of specialists and 10% of the general dentists (p<0.05). Half of the specialists used routine thyroid shielding; however, only 28.4% of the GDPs followed this practice (p<0.05). Among the specialists, 19 (45.2%) had faculty membership. Use of a rectangular collimation, long cone, and thyroid shield, except variable exposure time were more common in non-faculty members, although not significantly different. Conclusion: Although most dentists did not follow the standard radiological guidelines, it was noticeable that specialist dentists used more appropriate radiographic techniques. Attention should be focused on under- and postgraduate education and employing strict policies for dental radiologic safety measures.","PeriodicalId":15640,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dental Materials and Techniques","volume":"79 1","pages":"1-2"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80863824","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}

Methods: This experimental in-vitro study evaluated 72 freshly extracted sound human third molars with almost equal dimensions. After cavity preparation, the teeth were then randomly divided into three groups. In group 1, the undermined area was reinforced with light-cure GI. Group 2 received a 2 mm cuspal cap, and group 3 received no intervention. Half of the teeth in each group were restored with composite resin and the other half with amalgam. The teeth then underwent thermocycling and their fracture resistance was measured by a universal testing machine. Data were analyzed using two-way ANOVA. Results: No significant difference was noted in fracture resistance among three procedures in teeth restored with composite (P=0.589). However, this difference was significant in teeth restored with amalgam (P=0.001).

Methods: This experimental in vitro study was carried on blocks of human teeth extracted for orthodontic reasons. Three commercially available fluoride varnishes (Fluor protector (FP), Duraphat (DP), Clinpro White Varnish (CWV)) a Giomer (PRG-Barrier Coat), and an RMGI (Clinpro XT) were applied in these blocks, divided into five groups (eight samples each one). The readings were carried out using an ion-selective electrode and a potentiometer. After 30 days of study, the recharge capacity of these materials was evaluated immersing the samples in 20,000 parts per million (ppm) sodium fluoride gel. Results: Significant differences were found when comparing FP with the rest of the materials analyzed in this study since it released the lowest amount of fluoride with 1.01 ppm. The Giomer released 1.90 ppm, whereas CWV and DP released the highest amount of fluoride with 5.41 ppm and 4.76 ppm, respectively. The RMGI was more constant during the first five days and demonstrated a greater recharge capacity.

The purpose of this study was to compare the adhesion capability of periodontal ligament fibroblast cells (PDLFC) to the Nanohydroxyapatite silicate-based cement and silicate-based cement alone in vitro. Methods: Primary cell cultures of PDLFCs were obtained from clinically healthy third molars teeth. These third molars were either extracted for orthodontic reasons or extracted due to the impaction of teeth. Cells subcultured at a density of 10000 cells/well in 24-well plates. Methyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay was performed to evaluate the survival and proliferation of fibroblasts on 24h, 72h, and 1week after the cell culture. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis was used to examine the morphology of PDLFCs on the two scaffolds. Results: Cells were found growing in close proximity to both minerals but in terms of fibroblast cell attachment. Adding Nanohydroxyapatite did not improve cellular proliferation and silicate-based cement alone showed superior cellular proliferation in 72 hours. After 24h and 1week both minerals showed the same response.

Radiography as a gold standard way nowadays has some flaws like making a 3D object, image distortion, not measuring the exact location of apical foramen, and putting the patient in a direct X-ray exposure. Here, we compare these three ways in measuring working length of single canal teeth that are narrow. Methods: Initially thirty single canal teeth with narrow canals were selected. After preparing the access cavity, the teeth were mounted in alginate for measuring working length with an apex locator. After that, they mounted in chalk in order to determine the working length using conventional and digital radiographs. Finally, the teeth were removed from the mount and the exact working length assessed using a hand file to compare with the three mentioned methods.

Failure to properly diagnose and protect the nerve may result in its damage during medical procedures such as surgery and placement of dental implants. This study evaluated the position of MF and its relationship with gonial angle using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images. Methods: 128 gonial angles from 64 CBCT images were measured and divided into low-angle (≤125°) and high-angle (>125°) categories. MF was divided into five types considering its position in cross-sectional profiles: type A (under apex of first premolar); B (under apex of second premolar); C (between first and second premolars); D (anterior to first premolar); and E(posterior to second premolar).The length of mental canal and its buccolingual and superior-inferior position was also evaluated. Independent T-test and Chi-square tests were used with statistical significance set at p Results: The highest frequency of MF position in the high and low-gonial angle categories was type C and the lowest in high-angle and low-angle were type E and D, respectively. The position of the foramen and measurements of the mental canal was not affected by age, gender, or gonial angle (P>0.05). Conclusion: Position of MF was not found to be related to patients’ age, sex, or gonial angles. Since a precise determination of the MF position is difficult due to its different anatomical variations and also because of potential damages during the treatment procedures in this area, radiographic analysis and determining its location among different populations is necessary.","PeriodicalId":15640,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dental Materials and Techniques","volume":"07 1","pages":"44-53"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89705581","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}
