ABSTRACT

Aim:
The present research was conducted to assess the microleakage of stainless steel crowns along with pedo jacket crowns following cementation with different luting cements.

Materials and Methods:
A total of 60 deciduous teeth subjected to extraction were employed in this in vitro research. These 60 specimens were randomly divided into two groups: Group I: Stainless steel crowns and Group II: Pedo Jacket crowns. Both crowns were subjected to cementation using self-cure resin-modified glass ionomer (RMGI) cement as well as by means of self-adhesive universal resin cement (RelyX luting cement). The specimens were subjected to storage in distilled water at 37°C for 24 h and were subjected to 500 thermal cycles between 5°C and 55°C using a dwell span of 30 s. Individual surfaces were assessed for the amount of dye infiltration at the boundaries by the side of the tooth–cement border beneath a stereomicroscope under 50× magnifying power. At the mesial and distal surfaces, the amount of microleakage was measured in micrometers (μm), and the mean value was computed for each sample.

Results:
Stainless steel crowns subject to cementation with RelyX luting cement exhibited the lowest microleakage (0.88 ± 0.78) versus self-cure RMGI cement (0.94 ± 0.78). There was no statistically significant difference found between the groups. Pedo Jacket crowns subject to cementation with RelyX luting cement exhibited the lowest microleakage (0.96. ± 0.32) while self-cure RMGI cement (1.83 ± 0.16) depicted the maximum microleakage. There was an extremely statistically noteworthy dissimilarity noted among the groups.

Conclusion:
The current research concluded that Pedo Jacket crowns subjected to cementation with RelyX luting cement can be regarded as an esthetically pleasing restorative alternative for numerous young patients. Applying RelyX luting cement to Pedo Jacket crowns provides a strong bolstering by composite materials that ensures the success of the therapy provided.

ABSTRACT

Introduction:
The successful restoration of damaged tissue requires a complicated, dynamic process called wound healing, which is supported by a wide range of cellular activities. Natural materials generated from medicinal plants have been identified, and their therapeutic potential evaluation has resulted in the development of novel, affordable medicines that can be used to treat a variety of illnesses, including chronic wounds, with limited side effects.

Aims and Objectives:
This study aimed to assess the wound-healing property of Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Athimathuram) plant extracts by using an in vitro scratch assay test, as well as to evaluate their cellular toxicity.

Materials and Methods:
Using the Soxhlet device, ethanolic extraction of the plant material was done, and the cytotoxicity of the extract on the Vero cell line was examined using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. One of the most often utilized mammalian in vitro cell lines in research was Vero cells. To assess the wound healing properties of G. glabra plant extract, an in vitro scratch assay was used, and their potential mechanisms of action were examined.

Results:
Even at higher concentrations, the MTT assay showed that G. Glabra plant extracts had no cytotoxic effects on the cells. In vitro scratch assay showed that the healing process of the cell line was increased by 23.33% when compared with the controlled cell lines.

Conclusion:
Our research demonstrated that G. glabra has in vitro wound healing capabilities. As a result, G. glabra can be suggested as a possible source of compounds that treat wounds.

Published: July 2023

ABSTRACT

Aim:
The aim of the current research was to assess the ability of different dental varnishes in averting enamel demineralization adjoining the orthodontic brackets.

Materials and Methods:
Seventy-five premolars devoid of dental caries that were subjected to extraction for orthodontic purposes were employed in this research. The surface of enamel was etched with 37% phosphoric acid and subjected to primer application. Individual brackets were placed on the midregion of the buccal surfaces of the premolars with Transbond™ XT adhesive. Postbracket bonding, the dry premolar tooth samples were set aside cautiously. The samples were then allocated to three groups: Group I: Duraphat Varnish, Group II: Clinpro XT Varnish, and Group III: Profluorid Varnish. Every sample was independently subjected to immersion in demineralizing solution for a period of 96 h at 37°C in an incubator. Areas of demineralization were evaluated by documenting the microhardness along the severed surface using a microhardness tester equipped with a Vickers diamond.

Results:
The highest surface microhardness was noted with Profluorid Varnish group at 328.48 ± 1.12 in pursuit by Clinpro XT Varnish group at 322.08 ± 0.04 as well as Duraphat Varnish group at 307.42 ± 0.28 with a statistically noteworthy dissimilarity amid the groups.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, the three varnishes employed had an influence on the prevention of enamel demineralization surrounding the orthodontic brackets. Profluorid varnish however exhibited maximum efficiency in avoiding enamel demineralization versus Clinpro XT varnish as well as Duraphat varnish group.
Evaluation of Non-Cross Linked Xeno-Free Hyaluronic Acid Solutions as Visco Elastic Biomaterials
Authors: Mohan Sunil Paramel , Palaniappan Arunkumar 
Published: July 2023

ABSTRACT

Background:
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring biodegradable, high molecular weight, non-sulfated glycosaminoglycan (GAG) polymer known for its excellent biocompatibility. HA-based products are widely used as viscosupplements, dermal fillers, and ophthalmic lubricants in clinical settings. Although animal and bacterial-derived HA are commonly reported, plant-sourced HA is not frequently reported. In this study, we have evaluated various viscoelastic properties of one such plant-based HA solution and propose them as an alternative to existing animal/bacteria-sourced HA.

Materials and Methods:
The viscoelastic properties of plant-sourced HA solution of various concentrations (0.1%, 0.5%, 1%, and 2% in PBS) were studied using a rheometer at 37°C. Flow curves, amplitude sweep studies, and frequency sweep studies were performed and compared for all HA solutions.

Results:
The HA solutions displayed shear-thinning behavior, which is an important characteristic of an injectable biomaterial. The 0.1 and 0.5% HA were found to have viscoelastic properties appropriate for eye lubricants, while 1 and 2% HA solutions showed properties suitable for soft tissue fillers. Frequency sweep studies indicated that all the samples are typically viscoelastic liquids with a loss modulus (G″) higher than the storage modulus (G′). This indicated that the samples needed further processing like crosslinking of HA or using higher molecular weight HA to be suitable as viscosupplements. However, the frequency sweep studies also indicated that these solutions can be used as soft tissue fillers of any type based on the G′ and tan δ values.

Conclusion:
The plant-sourced HA solutions are found to exhibit good shear-thinning properties with viscoelastic properties suitable for eye lubricants and soft tissue fillers. However, to be used as viscosupplements, the viscoelastic properties of HA solutions have to be further modified through non-toxic crosslinking strategies, and hydrophobic derivatives as well as by using high molecular weight HAs.

ABSTRACT

Aim and Objectives:
The purpose of this study was to use cone bar CT to investigate the root trench morphology of two-hundred mesiobuccal permanent first molars in the maxilla.

Materials and Methods:
The distobuccal and palatal roots were removed at the furcation in 250 maxillary first molars. The mesiobuccal roots were then imaged using cone beam computed tomography on all specimens. The specimens were analyzed and compared to one another.” This study looked into the following factors. How Many Canals There Are and What Shape Those Canals Take Errors such as lateral canals, apical delta, calcified segments, and others.

Result:
Vertucci’s trench configuration, kinds I, II, III, IV, V, and VII, were seen in 30%, 20%, 5%, 6%, 7%, and 2.5% of the teeth, respectively. Calcified sections were found in the coronal third of the MB1 trench for eight of the samples, and in the central third for two of the samples. The MB1 trench did not have any calcifications at its very end. The coronal 33 percent of the MB2 trench was calcified in eight samples, but no calcifications were seen in the middle or upper thirds.

Conclusion:
Noninvasively and with little radiation, a cone beam CT scan can help you learn about your root canal setup.

Published: July 2023

ABSTRACT

Aim:
Pain management is a cornerstone in the practice of endodontics. However, optimum pain control has been a challenge in cases of symptomatic irreversible pulpitis resulting in a “hot tooth.” Thus, the objective of the study is to assess the knowledge and attitude and to determine the clinical protocols of “hot tooth” management followed among general practitioners and specialists.

Materials and Methods:
The KAP questionnaire contained 05 knowledge, 04 attitudes, and 06 practice-related items. The questionnaire was pretested among 10 randomly selected general dentists and endodontists. Testing–retesting was also performed. The questionnaire was self-administered and the acceptance to answer the questionnaire was considered consent to participate in the study. The sample size was calculated to be 200 with a 95% level of confidence. Descriptive statistics were used. For significance level, P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. The Chi-square test was used for comparison between the endodontists and the general dentists.

Results:
The anesthetic techniques that clinicians are most skilled in are infiltration and inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) – 96.6% and 98.5% respectively. The intraosseous technique (IO) was the least preferred technique (6.8%). The most common supplementary injection used among both the BDS and MDS graduates was intrapulpal anesthesia. In cases of acute pulpitis, 54% of the respondents prescribed NSAIDs as a pre-anesthetic medication.

Conclusion:
The current study shows that supplemental injections like intraosseous and intraligamental techniques are underutilized. Also, the benefits of preanesthetic medication for hot tooth management are not harnessed among clinicians despite the sufficient body of evidence.

ABSTRACT
This community service activity was carried out to provide counseling, mentoring and training in making educational videos to the community in Tawanganom Village, Magetan District, Magetan Regency. This was done because TPS 3R "Uwuh Wiguna" experienced obstacles, namely waste that was not optimally absorbed by the TPS because not all residents had become TPS members due to lack of education about waste management. besides that there is still a lack of public awareness that waste can be recycled and can be used as compost. Video collection and making activities are carried out from the start of waste collection until the waste becomes compost that is ready for use by the surrounding community. It is hoped that the counseling, mentoring and training can educate the people of Tawanganom Village so that waste is optimally utilized.

INTRODUCCIÓN:
La escisión completa de mesocolon con linfadenectomía D3 (ECM-D3) mejora los resultados de pacientes operados por cáncer de colon. Reconocer adecuadamente la anatomía vascular, es fundamental para evitar complicaciones.
OBJETIVO:
El objetivo primario fue determinar la prevalencia de las variaciones anatómicas de la arteria mesentérica superior (AMS) y sus ramas en relación a la vena mesentérica superior (VMS). El objetivo secundario fue evaluar la asociación entre las distintas variantes anatómicas y el sexo y la etnia de lo pacientes.
DISEÑO:
Estudio de corte transversal
MÉTODOS:
Se incluyeron 130 pacientes con cáncer de colon derecho diagnosticados entre enero y diciembre de 2019. Dos radiólogos independientes describieron la anatomía vascular de las tomografías computadas. Según la relación de las ramas de la AMS con la VMS, la población fue dividida en 2 grupos y subdividida en 6 (1a–c; 2a–c).
RESULTADOS:
La arteria ileocólica fue constante, transcurriendo en el 61,5% de los casos por la cara posterior de la VMS. La arteria cólica derecha, presente en el 55,4% de los pacientes, cruzó la VMS por su cara anterior en el 95,8% de los casos. La variante de subgrupo más frecuente fue la 2c seguido por 2a (34,6% y 25,4%, respectivamente). No se encontró asociación entre variantes anatómicas y sexo u origen étnico.
CONCLUSIÓN:
Las variaciones anatómicas de la AMS y sus ramas son frecuentes y no presentan un patrón predominante. No hubo asociación entre las mismas y el sexo u origen étnico en nuestra cohorte. El reconocimiento preoperatorio de estas variantes mediante angiotomografía resulta útil para evitar lesiones vasculares durante la ECM-D3.

Authors: Sikandar Minahil , Mohsin Ayesha , Malik Alina 
Published: July 2023

This review discusses the use, mode of action, biomarkers, and bioindicators of inorganic arsenic and mercuric fungicides, as well as their effects on the environment and human health. The most prevalent indicator of exposure to arsenic is the measurement of total arsenic in urine. Biomarkers of exposure for arsenic and inorganic fungicides incudes the analysis of hair, urine, blooda and nails. Bio indicators are species or group of species that are used to indicate adverse effect of contamination. Freshwater fish species act as a very good bio indicator for inorganic arsenic. Tree bark, rice fields and sea birds could be a valuable indicator of inorganic arsenic contamination. Black Piranha, fish and earthworms are an ideal bio indicator of inorganic mercury. Inorganic arsenic compounds are known to be highly carcinogenic and toxic compounds. Mercuric fungicide is very toxic when inhaled by humans or animals it causes severe health issues and when absorbed by plants it retards their growth. To estimate the daily dose of arsenic exposure to humans through absorption, ingestion and other pathways, Average daily dose is implemented by using two equations from the US EPA. To determine the ecological risk assessment a simplified equation was proposed by FDA i.e. HQ = E/RfD. Overall, the review emphasizes the need for heightened awareness, regulation, and alternative approaches to fungicide use, with a focus on minimizing the use of inorganic arsenic and mercuric fungicides to safeguard the environment and promote sustainable agricultural practices.
