BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic which is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has created a major global health crisis in recent years. Despite this, there have been few studies that have utilized reliable methods to assess changes in taste and smell perception. Therefore, our study aims at the number of fungiform papillae and objective measures of taste perception relationship among COVID-19 patients with olfactory and gustatory disorders. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was a cross-sectional analytical study in which 57 COVID-19 patients were recruited who confirmed the dysfunction of taste and smell...

BACKGROUND: Triple antibiotic paste (TAP) is the commonly used intracanal medicament against Enterococcus faecalis . Amoxicillin clavulanate paste (ACP) is recommended as a "fall-back" antibiotic when traditional dental antibiotics fail. Literature comparing the antimicrobial efficacy of TAP and ACP in eradicating E. faecalis from the root canal system is sparse; hence, this in vitro study was conducted to evaluate and compare the antimicrobial efficacy of TAP and ACP as an intracanal medicament for endodontic treatment of single-rooted permanent teeth against E...

BACKGROUND: Oral cancer remains one of the most dreadful diseases in developing nations. Currently, there has been a rise in the prevalence of tongue squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), with a poor prognosis. The use of standard treatment approaches against oral cancer patients brings about several side effects. In recent years, nanomedicine has provided a versatile platform for developing new targeted therapeutic modalities. However, safety remains a concern in the synthesis of nanoparticles (NPs)...

BACKGROUND: Coronal seal is one of the essential factors that affects the success of endodontic treatment and reinforces the apical seal. The intra-orifice barrier is an efficient alternative approach to decrease coronal leakage in endodontically treated teeth and various materials have been used for this purpose. This study aimed to compare the coronal sealing of flowable composite, resin-modified glass ionomer (RMGI), and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) in endodontically treated teeth...

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of apex locator, digital periapical radiography, and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) for determining the root canal working length (WL) in teeth with external root resorption (ERR). MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this in vitro study, the sample consisted of 54 extracted permanent single-rooted human teeth. ERRs were performed at the 3 mm apical root using 65% of nitric acid for 24 h.

BACKGROUND: Fixed orthodontic appliances enhance dental plaque accumulation. Glass ionomer (GI) is among the most popular orthodontic cement. It possesses antibacterial properties; however, its antibacterial activity may not be sufficient for caries prevention. Although evidence shows that the addition of 8wt% nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA) may enhance the antibacterial properties of GI, no clinical study has been conducted in this respect. Thus, this study aimed to assess the subgingival accumulation of Streptococcus mutans (S...

BACKGROUND: Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) has favorable properties that make it able to be used as a denture base material, but it is also susceptible to the adhesion of microorganisms. In this study, we applied Octafluoropentyl (meth) acrylate (OFPA) coating on the PEEK polymer surface by using plasma spray and investigated the functional groups present on the surface, changes in the surface energy and Candida albicans adhesion. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this experimental study, the samples were placed in a control group without surface preparation and three experimental groups that were subjected to plasma spray for 10, 30, and 60 s and then impregnated with degassed Octa fluoropentyl (meth) acrylate (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) monomer...

BACKGROUND: Knowledge about the anatomic variations of the root canal system and their prevalence is necessary for clinicians to ideally clean the root canal system. The anatomic complexity of the root canal system is one of the reasons for its inadequate debridement, resulting in residual microorganisms and root canal treatment failure. The present study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of middle mesial root canals in mandibular molars in an Iranian population. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The samples in the present descriptive/cross-sectional study consisted of mandibular first and second molars ( n = 100, with 50 first and 50 s molars)...

Implant-supported prostheses could serve as a reliable restorative option for partial edentulism. Various restorative materials have been utilized in fabricating these prostheses, impacting both esthetics and peri-implant health. The present systematic review aimed to assess the survival rate and mechanical complications of zirconia ceramic compared to metal-ceramic implant-supported multiunit fixed dental prostheses (FDPs). We conducted searches in online databases such as MEDLINE (PubMed), Scopus, and Cochrane up until December 2022...
