Investigation of genetic polymorphisms in genes encoding growth factors and dental pulp calcification in orthodontic patients [PDF]

Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research
Background and objectives: Pulp calcification is associated with many factors and triggers, including individual genetic predisposition and orthodontic forces. This study aimed to investigate whether genetic polymorphisms in epidermal growth factor (EGF),

Early diagnosis of aortic calcification through dental X-ray examination for dental pulp stones [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2023
Vascular calcification, an ectopic calcification exacerbated by aging and renal dysfunction, is closely associated with cardiovascular disease. However, early detection indicators are limited.

The investigation of WNT6 and WNT10A single nucleotide polymorphisms as potential biomarkers for dental pulp calcification in orthodontic patients. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2023
The aim of this study is to evaluate if single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in WNT6 and WNT10A are associated with the risk of dental pulp calcification in orthodontic patients.

Correlation of dental pulp stones, carotid artery and renal calcifications using digital panoramic radiography and ultrasonography

Contemporary Clinical Dentistry, 2015
Background: The human tissues continuously undergo modification as deposition of calcium (CA) salts either in an organized or disorganized pattern. The latter pattern usually occurs in the soft tissues such as in arteries, brain, kidneys, lungs, and ...

THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE CHRONIC RENAL FAILURE WITH CAROTID ARTERY CALCIFICATIONS, DENTAL PULP CALCIFICATIONS AND DENTAL PULP STONES

Atatürk Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi Dergisi, 2015
ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the existence of carotid artery calcifications in dental panoramic radiographs and dental pulp calcifications together with dental pulp stones in periapical radiographs in patients with chronic renal failure undergoing haemodialysis and healthy individuals, and to identify the relationship ...

Therapeutic Approach to Pulp Canal Calcification as Sequelae of Dental Avulsion [PDF]

European Endodontic Journal, 2017
Tooth avulsion represents the most complicated dental injury, and the classic treatment is tooth replantation. The most common sequelae are pulp canal calcification (PCC) and pulp necrosis. The presence of pulp necrosis after PCC is reported in up to 30% of the cases and is a challenge due to the difficulty of endodontic treatment.

CHANGES IN THE DENTAL PULP CALCIFICATIONS WITH A LAMELLAR CONCENTRIC STRUCTURE AND CALCIFICATIONS WITH AN AMORPHOUS TO FINELY GRANULAR STRUCTURE

Journal of Morphological Sciences, 2023
The aim of the study was to inspect change in the pulp with dental calcifications by different structure. Material and method: we carried out the research on 40 pulps after indicated tooth extraction, during which we made a vertical section of the teeth and removed the pulps, and 60 extirpated pulps from teeth with an endodontic diagnosis of pulpitis ...
