Abstract Objectives Compression screws that can fix a fracture of the condylar head of the mandible are available. Although typical titanium lag screws are generally used, a series of headless screws have been designed for this purpose. The "headless" advantage derived from the complete submergence of the screw in the bone after fixation is the lack of irritation of the lateral ligament of the temporo-mandibular joint by the screw head....
Abstract Objective The aim of the present vitro study was to examine the question whether devitalized Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) cells can migrate into dentinal tubules and if that process takes place in a time-dependent manner. Design Sixty bovine root canals were incubated with devitalized and vital streptomycin-resistant E. faecalis strains after...
Abstract Objectives Studies on the perioperative management of patients on direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) receiving oral invasive procedures are sparse. Moreover, the recommendations of the scientific societies on DOACs are discordant, and the practices are highly variable. We conducted a survey of general and specialized dentists in France to compare their practices concerning the management of patients receiving vitamin K antagonists...
Abstract Objectives The objective of this clinical study was to compare and assess the clinical performance of tooth-supported and implant-supported zirconia single crowns with sintered veneering caps. Methods In this prospective study, 118 patients with a total of 220 single crowns placed on 106 teeth (69 vital teeth, 37 endodontically treated teeth) and...
Abstract Objective This study assessed tissue responses after furcation perforation and immediate sealing with either Biodentine™ or MTA Angelus™. Material and methods Sixty male Wistar rats were used (n = 6 per group/period). The mandibular first molars had the furcation mechanically exposed and sealed with either MTA or Biodentine™ and restored with silver...
Abstract Objectives To histologically evaluate the morphology of the newly formed mineralized tissue and of the adjacent cells, in intact human teeth subjected to mechanical pulp exposure and capping with a fast-setting mineral trioxide aggregate (RetroMTA). Materials and methods Seven caries-free third molars from three adults were subjected to pulp exposure,...
