Total tooth loss (edentulism) can be a debilitating condition, impacting on ability to chew, speak and interact with others. The most common treatment is complete removable dentures, which may successful, but in the lower jaw, bone resorption that worsens over time makes denture-wearing difficult. Two dental implants mandible retain denture has been advocated as gold standard of treatment, not universally provided due largely financial constraints also patient fear. Mini (MI) are cheaper...
Once cleaning and shaping is complete the clinician must obturate canal. There are many different materials techniques available each with their own discrete advantages disadvantages. Whichever technique used, goal to seal entire prepared length of root This paper describes how best this may be achieved. CPD/Clinical Relevance: It incumbent on ensure that once canal has been it sealed from bacterial re-entry.
The purpose of instrumentation is to facilitate irrigation and allow controlled obturation. This article will revisit methods the root canal system with consideration given length determination, apical preparation concept patency filing. It discuss hand rotary looking at emerging technology such as reciprocating systems self-adjusting file. CPD/Clinical Relevance: Mechanical fundamental importance in achieving success, creating a more easily managed environment from biological perspective.
Following a diagnosis of irreversible pulpal disease, periapical disease or failed endodontic therapy, the options for tooth are extraction root canal treatment. There is increasing evidence that certain factors may allow clinician to predict likely outcome therapy (RCT) and thus better inform patient possible success rates. Should choose treatment, must also be able gauge potential difficulties encountered consequently determine whether it within their competency. CPD/CLINICAL RELEVANCE:...
Although the principles of endodontics have remained unchanged for many decades, root canal treatment has been subject to major changes in past few years. This paper outlines cutting-edge advances including materials and techniques used. CPD/Clinical Relevance: article provides an overview bioactive insight into regenerative endodontics, vital pulp therapy intentional replantation.
Although the edentulous population in UK is falling, those that are rendered becoming edentate later life and with significantly resorbed ridges. This creates a challenge because management of such patients their ability to adapt new dentures impaired life. Despite widespread endorsement two implants retain lower complete dentures, inability comply has resulted elderly compromised function unable eat healthy diet. Mini dental may offer an ideal solution for who not be keen on invasive...
Poor access and iatrogenic damage can result in failed root canal treatment. Understanding tooth anatomy improves ensures that the clinician is cleaning shaping whole system. If a missed treatment usually fails. This paper revisits discusses how to ensure optimized, but not at expense of precious structure. The concept multi-visit also addressed with emphasis on the, often overlooked, aspect temporization. CPD/Clinical Relevance: Good anatomical knowledge teeth cornerstone endodontics. Once...
The experiment was carried out in one of the green houses research station A Department Horticulture and Landscape Design during fall season 2020/2021 This study aimed to reducing amount irrigation water using factorial with split plot designed by included three factor , First factor, quality (main plots) at levels: (irrigation from Tigris River 0.92 dm s-1(I0), alternating (one saline followed River(I1), Alternating (two irrigations water, River(I2), Second addition Polyacrylamide (0,...
Edentulism (total tooth loss) can be managed with four possible options: no prosthetic replacement, conventional complete dentures, implant-retained overdentures (removable), or implant-supported bridgework (fixed). Selection of these choices is influenced by social, medical, anatomical, technical, and economic factors. The care team involved in the decision-making process (be it patients, clinicians occasionally commissioners services) should aware different treatment options their...
Clinicians are often faced with endodontic cases that significantly more challenging than the primary root canal treatment of mature adult teeth. This paper outlines some common modalities which can be employed in situations either has failed, or there is iatrogenic damage unusual anatomy. CPD/Clinical Relevance: will provide reader advice and techniques for undertaking orthograde retreatment, hemisection, surgery management teeth incompletely formed roots.
Across the globe population is ageing. In addition, older patients are retaining increasing numbers of natural teeth into old age. Therefore, clinicians faced with challenges managing chronic dental diseases, including caries and periodontal disease, alongside replacing missing units. A number treatment options available to replace for such large currently receiving removable partial dentures. Alternative approaches should be considered this group, functionally orientated tooth replacement...
