We report a novel treatment option for teeth with internal root resorption (IRR) in which the lesion had perforated to the PDL and was located in the coronal aspect of the root. Arrest and calcification of IRR can be achieved by local application of calcium hydroxide without further intracanal instrumentation. Case ReportTwo cases of severe IRR without periapical inflammation were treated with a novel technique: The vital pulp including the granuloma was left in place and subjected to long?term disinfection with application of calcium hydroxide in the coronal aspect of the IRR. In both cases, the radiolucent areas were reduced and showed progressive calcification. Solid barriers were found in the coronal layers of the IRRs, and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) was placed as definitive fi…

Customer Fred Boettcher only ate at the Doo-Dah Diner in Wichita, Kansas, one time, but he nevertheless felt compelled to leave a tip of $ 25,000 . The reason: He wanted server Brian Maixner, a gregarious 43-year-old single father who suffered from dental decay, to be able to buy a new set of teeth.

Conclusions Reciproc showed significantly less intensity and duration of posttreatment pain compared to One Shape. Clinical relevance Reciprocation movement offers a more predictable and safer approach of root canal preparation, in addition to producing less postoperative pain. The need for patients to take analgesics may reduce following this approach. (Source: Clinical Oral Investigations)

Metastatic breast carcinoma has a great tendency to spread to the mandible. It is concomitantly associated with bone destruction, food intake disorder, and a poorer prognosis. Appropriate animal models need to be developed for a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying the metastatic process of breast cancer cells to mandible and to test the effects of potential lead compounds. Here, we assessed the metastasis model of intracardiac injection using luciferase-transfected metastatic breast cancer cells (MDA-MB-231Luc+) by determining the incidences of metastasis, mCT images, and histopathological results. A high bioluminescence signal mainly detected mandibular lesions with less frequent distal femora and proximal tibiae lesions. Extensive mandibular bone destruction occurred in nud…
