Pulpitis, inflammation of the dental pulp, is a disease that often necessitates emergency care. While pulpitis considered to be microbial primarily caused by bacteria, viruses have also been implicated in its pathogenesis. Here, we determined expression SARS-CoV2 receptor, angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and associated cellular serine protease TPMRSS2 pulp under normal inflamed conditions. Next, explored relationship between SARS-CoV-2/human interactome genes expressed pulpitis. Using...

External cervical resorption (ECR) is a resorptive process affecting teeth. While in some patients, active ceases and gets replaced by osseous tissue, other cases, the progresses ultimately results tooth loss. For proper ECR assessment, cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) recommended imaging modality, enabling 3-D characterization of these lesions. it possible to manually identify measure CBCT scans, this can be time intensive highly subject human error. Therefore, there an urgent need...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small, noncoding RNAs that regulate post-transcriptional expression their respective target genes and responsive to various stimuli, including LPS. Here we examined the early (4 h) miRNA responses THP1-differentiated macrophages challenged with LPS derived from periodontal pathogens, Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Porphyromonas gingivalis or environmentally-modified obtained P. grown in cigarette smoke extract. Predicted miRNA-gene interactions for...

Abstract Aim To create an irreversible pulpitis gene signature from microarray data of healthy and inflamed dental pulps, followed by a bioinformatics approach using connectivity mapping to identify therapeutic compounds that could potentially treat pulpitis. Methodology The Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, international public repository genomics sets, was searched for human datasets assessing An expression generated differential analysis. statistically significant map (ssCMap)...

Studies show that cracked teeth are the third most common cause for tooth loss in industrialized countries. If detected early and accurately, patients can retain their a longer time. Most cracks not because of discontinuous symptoms lack good diagnostic tools. Currently used imaging modalities like Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) intraoral radiography often have low sensitivity do clearly. This paper introduces novel method detect, quantify, localize automatically high resolution CBCT...
