What Outcomes Matter in Vital Pulp Therapy? Current Concepts and Challenges

Australian Dental Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vital pulp therapy (VPT) has re‐emerged as a practical and biologically sound alternative for managing deep caries and carious pulp exposures. Although its clinical use is now widespread, the outcomes used to judge the success of VPT remain inconsistent and often difficult to compare across studies.

Evaluation of the Adequate Radiopacity of Cavity Lining/Base and Core Build‐Up Light Cured Composite Resins

Australian Dental Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background This study aimed to compare the radiopacity of composite resins (CR) used as lining, base, and core‐build up materials with enamel and dentine and evaluate their compliance with ISO 4049. Methods Specimens of 1, 2, and 3 mm thicknesses; (n = 6) were fabricated from 13 low‐viscosity and 10 regular‐viscosity CRs.

Artificial Intelligence and Digital Impressions: The Positives and the Pitfalls

Australian Dental Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Digital impressions are now central to contemporary dental workflows, driven by advances in CAD/CAM manufacturing and intraoral scanning technologies. In parallel, rapid progress in artificial intelligence (AI)—particularly deep learning—has led to its widespread integration into digital impression systems.

Impact of Chelators on FAC Following Interaction With NaOCl: A Focused Evidence Synthesis Based on a Systematic Search

Australian Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This systematic review following PRISMA guidelines evaluated the effects of endodontic chelators on free available chlorine (FAC) in sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), with emphasis on the influence of concentration, contact time, temperature, and pH. Risk of bias was assessed using the Quality Assessment Tool for In Vitro Studies (QUIN).

Influence of Delivery Method of Hydraulic Calcium Silicate Cement‐Based Sealer on Void Formation: A Micro‐Computed Tomography Study

Australian Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to compare three delivery methods of a hydraulic calcium silicate cement‐based sealer by quantifying voids using the single‐cone technique. Forty‐eight human mandibular molars were instrumented and scanned using micro‐computed tomography.

Discuss the Rationale for Minimally Invasive Endodontics and the Merits and Demerits of the Concept

Australian Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Minimally invasive endodontics (MIE) places emphasis on the conservation of sound tooth structure and viable pulp tissue during endodontic procedures such as root canal treatment (RCTx) and vital pulp therapy (VPT). The use of minimal access cavity designs and conservative canal preparation dimensions have been investigated as a way to improve

Changes in the Location of the Second Mesiobuccal Canal Orifice After Canal Preparation in Maxillary First Molars

Australian Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated angular and linear positional changes of the second mesiobuccal (MB2) canal orifice in maxillary first molars and proposed a guideline for its localization. Twenty‐eight extracted maxillary first molars with four canals were analysed. After access cavity preparation, all canals except MB2 were instrumented. The initial and

Effects of Calcium Hydroxide Paste and Access Cavities on Fracture Strength of Mature and Simulated Immature Human Teeth: Ex Vivo

Australian Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim was to examine whether a Ca(OH)2 paste affects fracture strength of teeth. Sixty extracted maxillary central incisors were prepared to simulate immature teeth. Another 40 were used as mature teeth. The ten groups (n = 10) were: (1) immature control; (2) immature + access; (3) immature + access + 1 m Ca(OH)2; (4) immature + access + 12 ...

Sodium Diclofenac‐Loaded Drug Delivery Microspheres: Impact on Calcium Hydroxide Paste Properties and Biological Response

Australian Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated whether the incorporation of sodium diclofenac‐loaded microspheres into a calcium hydroxide paste enhances antibiofilm activity while maintaining physicochemical properties and biocompatibility. Calcium hydroxide paste, calcium hydroxide combined with sodium diclofenac, and calcium hydroxide containing sodium diclofenac ...
