To assess in a laboratory experimental model the efficacy of novel root canal irrigant, QMiX, against Enterococcus faecalis and mixed plaque bacteria planktonic phase biofilms. In addition, its ability to remove smear layer was examined.Enterococcus were exposed 2% chlorhexidine (CHX), MTAD 1% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) for 5 s, 30 s 3 min. Following exposure, samples taken, serially diluted grown aerobically anaerobically on tryptic soy agar (TSA) plates or blood 24 72 h, respectively,...
Abstract Aim To investigate the mode of failure a brand nickel‐titanium instruments separated during clinical use, by detailed examination fracture surface. Methodology A total 122 ProTaper S1 were discarded from an endodontic clinic at stomatological school in China over period 17 months; 28 had fractured. These fractured ultrasonically cleaned, autoclaved and then examined under scanning electron microscope. From lateral view was classified into ‘torsional’ or ‘flexural’. The specimens...
Over the decades, a wide array of nickel–titanium ( NiTi ) instruments has been introduced for shaping root canals. Each generation had something new to offer and intended improve upon previous generations. Many variables physical properties influence clinical performance rotaries. Ultimately, experience, handling properties, safety, case outcomes should decide fate particular instrument design. This review article summarizes metallurgical mechanical endodontic design features each...
Rare copy number variants (CNVs) disrupting ASTN2 or both and TRIM32 have been reported at 9q33.1 by genome-wide studies in a few individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs). The vertebrate-specific astrotactins, its paralog ASTN1, key roles glial-guided neuronal migration during brain development. To determine the prevalence of astrotactin mutations delineate their associated phenotypic spectrum, we screened ASTN2/TRIM32 ASTN1 (1q25.2) for exonic CNVs clinical microarray data from...
