RESUMO
AIM: To evaluate the intensity of postendodontic pain (PEP) using final irrigation with side-vented needle (SV), EndoActivator (EA), and Ultra X (UX) in single-visit endodontics (SVE) with F-One rotary files. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total 150 patients indicated for endodontic treatment were selected. Single-visit endodontics treatment was performed under local anesthesia. For the final irrigation protocol, they were divided into three groups: group I (SV), group II (EA), and group III (UX). The severity of PEP was assessed using visual analogue scale (VAS) score after 6, 12, 24, and 48 hours. Analgesics taken by patients, for pain, were also recorded. Finally, the data were tabulated and statistically analyzed using SPSS 20.0 software at a level of significance being 0.05. RESULTS: Postendodontic pain was less in group III (UX) and group II (EA) compared with group I (SV) at 6 and 12 hours, which is statistically significant (p < 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference found after 24 hours and 48 hours. CONCLUSION: The intensity of PEP was minimum in patients treated with EndoActivator and ultrasonic along with single rotary file systems. The incidence of analgesic intake was similar in all three groups. How to cite this article: Kathiria NV, Attur K, Bagda KM, et al.

AIM: This narrative review aims to explore and elicit the newer endodontic file systems used for root canal treatments. BACKGROUND: The primary goals of endodontic therapy continue to be the mechanical enlargement and shaping of the intricate endodontic root canal systems to aid in disinfection. Nowadays endodontists have access to a wide range of endodontic file systems for root canal preparations with various design characteristics and benefits. REVIEW RESULTS: ProTaper Ultimate (PTU) files' tip have a triangular convex cross-section, an offset mass of rotating design, a maximum flute diameter of 1.0 mm, and are constructed of gold wire, hence, commonly applied in conditions with restricted accessibility or an extremely curved canal. TruNatomyhas advantages over other cutting-edge file systems like maximum flute diameter of the corona, reduced distance between active cutting flutes, and shorter handles in comparison to SX instruments. In comparison to PTU files, ProTaper Gold (PTG) files are noticeably more elastic and fatigue-resistant. Compared to files in the F1-F3 range, size S1 and S2 files have a significantly longer fatigue life. MicroMega One RECI is more resistant to cyclic fatigue because of its heat treatment and reciprocating action and the C-wire heat treatment of the former gives it flexibility and controlled memory, enabling the prebending of the file. The RECIPROC blue demonstrated enhanced flexibility, increased fatigue resistance, and lower microhardness while maintaining the same surface qualities. CONCLUSION: As per the necessity and requirement on case to case basis, every endodontic file system has advantages and disadvantages as mentioned in this narrative review. According to the need, an endodontist can select the file system which is required specifically. Although several studies are comparing these various systems in the literature, this narrative review aims to give the clinician a summary of some recently launched endodontic rotary file systems available in the market and their clinical uses. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: As per the priority and need of the case, whether removal and extrusion of debris, reduction of micro-organisms, keeping canal anatomy, and cutting efficiency, a specific required file system can be utilized.

Whenever a hand or a rotary instrument is used to eliminate tooth tissue, the mineralized matrix shatters rather then being uniformly sheared, producing considerably quantities of cutting debris. Much of the debris made up of very small particles of mineralized collagen matrix over the surface of dentin is known as smear layer. The clinical outcome of dental restorations is dependent upon the surface preparations, smear layer formation and hybrid layer which which provides a stable adhesion. Different surface morphology is produced by use of different burs. The thickness of the smear layer is affected by various factors as type of the bur, use of water spray and speed of rotation. Bonding is enhanced when smear layer is completely removed or modifed. The purpose of this in vitro study is to evaluate the effect of different burs on the topography of the smear layer formation and thickness on dentinal surface.

Background: Glucose is the chief source of energy for cells, and glucose transporter 1 (GLUT-1) is one of the most common glucose transporters in humans. Tumour cells are known to express hypoxia-related protein, and these may allow tumour cells to survive under a sustained hypoxic environment. Surviving cells develop a more aggressive phenotype, which results in poor prognosis. Aims and Objectives: Expression and comparison of GLUT-1 in normal tissues, potentially malignant disorders (PMDs), and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and comparison of expression in different grades of OSCC. Material and Methods: A total of 57 cases (10 normal, 17 PMD, and 30 cases of OSCC) were stained immuno-histochemically with GLUT-1. The expression was scored as 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 for negative, mild, moderate, severe, and intense staining, respectively. Results: GLUT-1 expression was detected in all grades of OSCC. A significant correlation was found on comparing normal and OSCC, normal and PMDs, and PMD and OSCC. The expression of GLUT-1 was significant when compared with different histopathological grades of OSCC. Conclusions: Expression of GLUT-1 increased from normal to PMDs to increasing grades of OSCC and hence can be used as a prognostic predictive marker for OSCC.
RESUMO
Objective: Using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), this study compared three rotary file systems-XP Endoshaper, Hyflex CM, and K3 XF-for centering, canal transportation, and root canal area growth. Materials and Methods: The rotating file system randomly separated 60 removed human mandibular molars into three groups (n = 20). Manufacturer-recommended root canal instrumentation was done. Specialized software examined pre- and post-instrumentation CBCT scans. Centering ability was measured by canal transportation and root canal area expansion at different levels from the apex. Results: The Hyflex CM file system had the best centering and the least canal transit at all levels (P < 0.05). XP Endoshaper increased the root canal area the most (P < 0.05). The K3 XF file system had average centering and canal transfer results. Conclusion: The Hyflex CM system centered well, whereas the XP Endoshaper system increased the root canal area the most. The clinical context and therapeutic goals should determine the rotating file system.
RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: Endodontic therapy requires meticulous root canal debridement, pathogen elimination, and effective obturation to prevent microbial intrusion. The presence of the smear layer hinders sealer penetration, compromising sealing effectiveness. Sodium hypochlorite and chlorhexidine are esteemed endodontic irrigants. Herbal extracts like neem and tulsi, with antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties, show promise for root canal irrigation. The study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of various irrigants in removing the smear layer and enhancing push-out bond strength at different root canal levels. MATERIALS AND METHODS: One hundred mandibular premolars with single canals were collected, and 50 samples each were used for the smear layer and push-out bond strength analysis. Neem and tulsi extracts were prepared for irrigation. Teeth were decoronated, and up to 30 (6%) canals were prepared and were randomly divided into five groups based on irrigants used. A smear layer examination was conducted after longitudinally sectioning the tooth and sections were observed in a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Obturation was done in the remaining samples, and the push-out bond strength was assessed using a universal test machine. RESULTS: Sodium hypochlorite showed the highest smear layer removal efficacy followed by chlorhexidine, neem, tulsi leaves with rose water extract, and normal saline. Chlorhexidine exhibited the highest push-out bond strength, with the coronal third presenting the strongest values, followed by neem, tulsi with rose water, normal saline, and sodium hypochlorite. CONCLUSION: The study underscores the potential of herbal irrigants in endodontic therapy, indicating promising results while emphasizing the necessity for further clinical trials to validate their efficacy and other properties.
RESUMO
Keratocyst is a developmental odontogenic cyst arising from remnants/rests of the dental lamina with biologic behavior similar to benign neoplasm. The presence of multiple odontogenic keratocysts is rare and seen in Gorlin-Goltz syndrome (GGS). GGS syndrome presents with multisystem involvement and the classical triad of multiple basocellular epitheliomas, keratocysts in the jaws, and bifid ribs; that characterize the diagnosis of this syndrome. Multiple odontogenic keratocyst are the most consistent features of the syndrome in 65%-100% of affected individuals and are generally diagnosed at a very early age. Early diagnosis and proper counseling of the parent and patient might help to reduce the morbidity, encourage follow-up for timely treatment, and help in avoiding ionizing radiation that would lead to the development of malignancies.
RESUMO
AIM: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the efficiency of different endodontic irrigants in the removal of smear layer through scanning electron microscopic image analysis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The present in vitro study was carried out on 45 single-rooted extracted human mandibular premolar teeth with single canal and complete root formation. Teeth were randomly assigned to three groups with 15 teeth in each group. Group I samples were irrigated with 17% ethylenediaminetetraacetic (EDTA) irrigation, Group II with 7% maleic acid irrigation, and Group III with 2% chlorhexidine irrigation. Scanning electron microscope evaluation was done for the assessment of smear layer removal in the coronal, middle, and apical thirds. Comparison of the smear layer removal between the three different groups was done by Kruskal-Wallis test, followed by Mann-Whitney U test for comparing individual groups. A P value less than 0.05 was considered to be statistically significant. RESULTS: Statistically significant difference was seen between the two test groups (17% EDTA vs. 7% maleic acid and 17% EDTA vs. 2% chlorhexidine) in smear layer removal at coronal, middle, and apical thirds of the root canal. The most efficient smear layer removal was seen in Group I with 17% EDTA irrigation compared with other groups (P < 0.05) and the least by 2% chlorhexidine. CONCLUSION: The present study shows that 17% EDTA efficiently removes the smear layer from root canal walls.
RESUMO
Calcifying odontogenic cyst is considered as a rare lesion and accounts for 1% of jaw cysts. It represents a heterogeneous group of lesions which exhibit a variety of clinicopathologic and behavioral features. It has been categorized as cyst and neoplasm. Even after several classification and subclassification, COC remains an enigma. WHO classification 2005 has reclassified the lesion as calcifying cystic odontogenic tumor (CCOT). Ameloblastomatous COC is a rare variant which is not much described in the literature. This report describes one such case which was large multicystic, involved the coronoid and condylar process of the mandible, and treated by subhemimandibulectomy. The case was recurrence free even after 1 year of followup.
