CONCLUSIONS: This critical review of conventional, new, and emerging tobacco products presents information that dental professionals can use in providing tobacco-related counseling to patients who use or who are at risk for using tobacco products. PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS: It is essential that dental professionals are knowledgeable about tobacco products and are able to answer patients’ questions and provide them with evidence-based tobacco-related counseling. This information may prevent patients from initiating use or help reduce or cease use to avoid immediate and long-term adverse health effects, including nicotine addiction, oral and systemic disease, and death.

The purpose of this clinical study was to quantify the levels of both LTA and cultivable bacteria at the different phases of endodontic retreatment (ER) of teeth with post-treatment apical periodontitis. It also aimed to investigate the presence of gram-positive microorganisms before and after chemomechanical preparation (CMP) and intracanal medication (ICM). (Source: Journal of Endodontics)
