Subluxation, also called central dislocation, is often the result of an axial impact in the apical direction, moving the tooth within the alveolar bone. This is perhaps one of the most traumatic injuries, since the displacement of a tooth within its socket implies extensive and acute involvement of the periodontal ligament, bone damage and rupture of the neurovascular bundle. The close relationship between the apexes of the primary teeth and the developing permanent successor in turn can lead to multiple complications, which are greater when the permanent tooth is affected in the early stages of development......

Children and teens are more prone to injuries while playing, with most of the impact taken by the face especially the jaws and the teeth. The most significant factor in preventing sports-related or recreational orofacial injuries is wearing basic protective devices such as properly fitting helmets, face masks, or mouth guards. A mouth guard, custom-fitted by your dentist and worn every time you play or train, will protect against dental injury. Mouth guards are available in 3 different variants which are stock, self-adapting, custom-made mouth guards. The benefits far exceed the expenditure when considering the fees and discomfort associated with a traumatic dental injury...... ReadMore

Objectives: In this study, a comparative study was done on the effects of Vi-One and Listerine fluoridated mouthwashes on the reduction of dental plaque in pediatric patients between 7-11 years of age in dental clinics of Sepideh and apple in Shiraz, Iran. Listerine Smart Rinse Kids is a product of the United States and Vi-One Junior mouth wash is the domestic production of the country at Rozhin Corporation. This research was conducted by Mohammad Karimi and Hassan Dehghan in 2018-2019. Material and Methods: In this study, 100 individuals were selected and divided into two groups of 50. During the study, no other method of controlling the plaque was used. In this method, the first group first used Vi-One mouthwash for 10 days and after two weeks of rest and minimizing dental plaque, they used Listerine for 10 days. While the second group .....

Perhaps the question that many pediatric dentists may have is whether a group of bacteria play an important role in the development of dental caries in children. The results of the new research that was carried out at Umea University in Sweden, can answer this question. Researchers at Umea University discovered a new issue in relation to cariogenic different types of Streptococcus Mutans bacteria. They also investigated the adhesion performance of bacteria on children teeth with common caries and increased risk of dental caries...... ReadMore

Dental technology that depended on the standardized lost-wax casting technology has been greatly improved with the introduction of dental CAD ⁄ CAM systems. The aim of the present study was to compare between the color changes of CAD/CAM acrylic and manually performed acrylic bridges used for pediatric patients. Forty study casts of children aged 2 - 4 years old of both genders, with prematurely lost one of the maxillary central incisors and the adjacent lateral incisor was carious and considered to be abutment tooth were involved in this study for construction of cantilever bridges. For each cast, two bridges were constructed; 1st one is CAD/CAM acrylic bridge and the other one is manually performed acrylic bridge. After immersing the bridges in saturated chocolate solution for different time intervals, color changes of the bridges wer..... ReadMore

Dens invaginates is a defect categorized by a prominent lingual cusp and centrally located fossa. It occurs due to early invagination of the enamel epithelium into dental papilla of the underlying tooth germ. The affected teeth show a deep invagination of enamel as well as dentin initiating from foramen caecum or tip of the cusps and may extend even into the root. The teeth that are most frequently involved teeth are the maxillary lateral incisors, there might also occur a bilateral involvement. In this anomaly there can be seen several morphologic variations and it may lead to early pulpal involvement from the caries progressing into the pulp from lingual pit. The treatment varies from a preventive restoration to endodontic therapy, depending on the severity of the case. The present case report refers to one such case..... ReadMore

The scope and changes to the examination format for Board Certification by the American Board of Pediatric Dentistry has successfully achieved the goal of enticing and attracting significantly greater numbers of AAPD members to pursue and complete the board process. Unlike earlier times (prior to 2002), when only 15% of its membership secured Diplomate status, changes in the examination format that reduced the process from four extensive and demanding components to two much abbreviated elements, approximately 80% of its membership has now pursued and achieved certification. For better or worse, standards have been radically modified from that of elite and prestigious to that of minimally acceptable. Movement in the direction of making the examination process more attractive and simplified has become th..... ReadMore

Internal root resorption (IRR) is a category of pulp disease characterized by the loss of dentine as a result of the action of clastic cells stimulated by pulpal inflammation. The objective of this case report was to account for the diagnosis and management of an internal root resorption without perforation. The patient, a 26-year-old male, came to Guru Nanak Institute of Dental Sciences and Research, West Bengal, without having symptoms in the tooth. Endodontic treatment was performed using the following methods: irrigation of the root canal with 2.5% of sodium hypochlorite, then calcium hydroxide (CH) was applied as intracanal medicament for one month. Complete instrumentation was done with Hyflex One File (Coltene) and obturation with corresponding guta-percha and Roeko Guttaflow Bio seal sealer (Coltene). The patient was checked after.....

Timely intervention is the key to any setback in the mixed dentition. Teeth which are supplemental to the normal dentition are supernumeraries, the most common being mesiodens, present in the premaxillary region. Certain pathological consequences may arise due to mesiodens like unaesthetic midline diastema, rotation, displacement, root resorption and cyst formation. The current case report presents the management of developing malocclusion in the anterior region due to the presence of mesiodentes- a molariform and a tuberculate. The molariform mesiodens was impeding the eruption of the maxillary right central incisor, thus the surgical removal of both mesiodentes was planned and executed. In addition to this soft tissue uncovering was done for the unerupted maxillary central inciso..... ReadMore

Untreated dental infection in End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients can potentially contribute to morbidity and transplant rejection. There is a need for detailed assessment and provision of good dental care following the diagnosis of chronic renal failure (CRF). Hence, regular clinical review is important for the early identification of oral complications of renal disease. Aim: The present study was carried out at Pediatric Nephrology Unit in Zigzag University Hospital to evaluate the dental health status in CRF children. Design: The dental health status of 50 children under 15 years suffering from CRF were compared results to the results of an age and sex matched control group (n=50). This study was done to evaluate enamel hypoplasia, dmft, DMFT, Gingival Index (GI), Plaque Index (PI), intrinsic and extrinsic stain and the changes in ..... ReadMore

Damage to the teeth of a young child can leave serious and prolonged periods of time, leading to a change in color, deformity or possible loss of it. The psychological impact of such damage can be very wide. Therefore, the pediatric dentist should have the following characteristics such as: having the knowledge of the treatment of the traumatized tooth and being available to provide the necessary treatment and services at any time of the day. The most common teeth that are damaged in the primary dental system are maxillary incisors. Primary molars are rarely damaged and are often damaged by indirect injury...... ReadMore

Dermatological allergies can have different causes. But the most frequent one in dentistry may be associated with the chemical agents which are used in dentistry. Even though the hypersensitivity to Formalin in children not frequently is reported, but some of the researches have shown the skin reaction has happened during or after the endodontic treatments. In spite, this is still a controversy among the researchers and scientists; we present a case of skin reactions with Pulpotec in a dental clinic. To achieve the result, the patch test was used......
