Abstract

Diagnosis and proper treatment planning in dentistry relies on dental radiography especially in cases of extent of caries, periodontal diseases, developmental disorders and oral pathologies. In pediatric dentistry management of child while taking radiograph can sometimes become challenging as it can affect the whole treatment plan and psychology of the child towards dental treatment. Thus, it becomes imperative to be aware of modifications needed in techniques of obtaining radiographs. This review emphasizes on all the possible alteration in techniques that can be used in infants, children through adolescence including those with special health care needs,along with recent advances.

Abstract

Root canal therapy success in deciduous teethis achieved by meticulous removal of debris and necrotic tissue.Anatomy and ischolar_main resorption increasethe complexity of the primary ischolar_main canal system during instrumentation. Also, the formation of smear layer during instrumentation of ischolar_main canal hinders the cleaning and shaping of ischolar_main canal system. These are the major hindrance in complete eradication of bacteria while performing cleaning & shaping of ischolar_main canal systems. The use of irrigants in ischolar_main canalalong with mechanical instrumentation is very effective during procedure of cleaning and shaping in endodontic treatment. The irrigants that are most routinely used include saline, sodium hypochlorite, EDTA, chlorhexidine and MTAD. None of the irrigants alone fulfill the ideal requirements for optimal activity. Various studies have shown that anirrigating solution when used in a particular sequence is better in attaining optimal irrigation. The purpose of this article is to study the effectiveness & correlation among various available ischolar_main canal irrigants used in pediatric dentistry.

Abstract

Absence of teeth in children and young adolescence has long term effects the normal function, alveolar growth, speech, aesthetics as well as negative impact on the psychosocial development of these growing children. Partial or complete anodontia could be either genetic or induced by trauma or dental caries. Owing to growing phase and transitory changes the takes place in and around dentoalveolar structures poses a greater challenge for clinician to devise a treatment place suiting all needs of the children without hampering the growth aspects. Various options for replacement of teeth ranges from removable partial dentures, semifixed dentures and most recently pediatric implants have been introduces. This paper encompasses all the aspects of pediatric implants along with the clinical consideration.

Keywords

Abstract

Bioactive restorative materials are the latest and the newest subjects of extensive studies and research in dentistry. It is not synonymous with biocompatible restorative materials. In the older times, research on biocompatibility was very much on the high, but in the recent times, research on bioactivity of restorative materials is on the rise. The interaction between dental pulp and these materials, its regeneration and healing are the major areas of interest.

Keywords

Abstract

The association of local anesthesia, the vasoconstrictor used in it and the medical condition of the patient concerned has long been studied, analyzed and modified. With the advancement in medical and dental practices, the number of complications relating the above stated parameters has also increased. This article gives a review of how the conditions of medically compromised patients effect the use of local anesthetic agent and the vasoconstrictors used with them in dental practice.

Keywords

Local Anesthesia, Complications, Medically-Compromised.
