Conservative pulp therapies are therapeutic maneuvers that allow the conservation of tooth vitality, such as indirect pulp-capping, direct pulp-capping, and pulpotomy. All these therapies aim essentially at maintaining ...

Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate pulp oxygenation levels (%SpO(2)) in patients with malignant intraoral and oropharyngeal tumors treated by radiotherapy (RT). Methods: Pulp oxygenation levels were measured ...

Introduction. Pulp vitality is the capacity of the pulp tissue to respond to electrical, thermal or mechanical stimuli. Evaluation of the connective tissue is necessary to make a proper diagnosis and to undertake an ...

Several studies have assessed the morphology and thickness of hybrid layer, the dentin bend strengths as well as sealing ability of dentin adhesive systems. However, few in vivo studies have evaluated the biocompatibility ...

Maintaining the integrity and health of the oral tissues is the primary objective of pulp treatment. Premature loss of primary teeth can lead to malocclusion and/or to esthetic, phonetic, or functional problems. It is ...

Objectives: Targeting a tissue engineering-based vital pulp therapy (VPT), this study investigated the incorporation of nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA) into polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibers, and the metabolism of human dental ...

The aim of this study was to assess, in vivo, the accuracy of the NovApex (R) electronic foramen locator in determining working length (WL) in vital and necrotic posterior teeth. The NovApex (R) was used in 144 canals: 35 ...
