An ex-vivo study was performed on vertically mounted equine maxillary cheek teeth that had caries of 30 infundibulae, using high and low speed contra-angle dental drills and Hedstrom files to debride infundibular food debris and carious dental tissues.

Cases of septic pulmonary embolism (SPE) diagnosed clinically by CT after dental extraction rarely include verification of bacteria from the local infection site. We report the case of a 70-year-old man without background disease suffering severe pyothrax after dental extraction.

Novel methods for debridement of dental implant surfaces contaminated by biofilm [PDF]
Background: Biofilm induced implant diseases have been reported to occur between 19-65% of all implants placed worldwide. Despite the high prevalence of these diseases, currently there is not a universally accepted and reliable treatment modality. Peri-implantitis is an inflammatory reaction which can cause bleeding, suppuration and the pathological ...

Evaluation of the Loss of Surface Roughness Following the Use of Four Different Instruments for Mechanical Debridement of Dental Implants: An In-vitro Pilot Study [PDF]
AbstractTo compare the dental implant surface properties such as mean surface roughness, roughness depth, and the surface loss produced by different prophylactic instrument types. Twenty-four surfaces of twelve dental implants were treated using titanium curettes, titanium-coated curettes, an air abrasion unit, and titanium brushes. The dental implants

Since the advent of osseointegration some 50-years ago, oral implants have been placed in an alveolar bone bed of presumed sterility (intraradicular infection theory). Bacteria were excluded from the pathogenesis of dental implant failure. Clinical audit of fixture failure provided an association with previous tooth-borne infection and soft bone ...

Effect of sterile tetracycline ophthalmic ointment as an adjuvant to mechanical debridement on the treatment of peri-implantitis: A randomized controlled clinical trial [PDF]
Background. Peri-implantitis is an infectious disease that affects the tissues around dental implants, with clinical signs of inflammation and irreversible loss of supporting bone.

Rehabilitation of facial dermatologic lesion of dental origin in a pediatric patient
Odontogenic cutaneous sinus tract (OCST) of the facial region is rarely found and mostly misdiagnosed because of its variable cutaneous manifestations with the absence of obvious dental symptoms.
