In periapical radiographs, the deviation of the apical foramen from the long axis of the anatomic apex is often invisible. In certain situations, it could be wise to use electronic apex locators or EALs. Conflicting findings were documented regarding the influence of the apical foramen's location concerning the anatomic apex on the accuracy of EALs. The present study aimed to clarify this possible influence. The cementoenamel junctions of 56 removed human maxillary and mandibular molars were

Little was known about the physical characteristics of the new bioceramic “Cerafill” root canal sealer when it first hit the market. This study sought to evaluate its properties in comparison to the previous iteration, “iRoot.” Fresh pastes of each sealer underwent a setting time test. The set discs were submerged in deionized water to measure the solubility percentage, pH variations, and calcium ions (Ca++) released after 1, 7, 14, and 28 days. In addition, each sealer's film thickness and

The diagnosis of oral submucosal fibrosis (OSMF) is easier when patients present later in the disease's progression. For this reason, early identification by knowledgeable practitioners is essential when a patient is asymptomatic. This study aimed to evaluate the frequency of non-specific chief complaints (CC) among OSMF patients presenting to a dental facility. The objective was to evaluate the association between the non-specific primary complaints and the OSMF's grade of disease progr

Because they offer improved retention, stability, support, and stable occlusion, as well as reduced forward sliding of the prosthesis and improved control over mandibular movements due to proprioception feedback that improves chewing efficiency, telescopic dentures are thought to be a good alternative to traditional removable dentures. A well-made prosthesis that is maintained with great care and has good clinical and laboratory knowledge can be successful. The use of sophisticated digital softw

Accidents, gum disease, and increased dental caries can all lead to tooth loss. A person's appearance, grin, and chewing efficiency may all be impacted by this. This problem can be addressed by using an artificial denture to replace the teeth. One option for those with relatively few teeth is an overdenture. Therefore, maintaining the root beneath the denture will uphold denture stability; sustain the alveolar ridge by halting residual ridge erosion, and preserve proprioception. Even if dent
