Impact of Smear Layer Removal Using Etidronate- and EDTA-Based Irrigation Protocols on Root Canal Microbiota: An In Vivo Study [PDF]

open access: yesDentistry Journal
Background: The effective elimination of root canal microbiota is essential for the treatment of apical periodontitis. The smear layer formed during instrumentation limits the penetration of irrigants into dentinal tubules, making chelation a critical ...

Evaluation of the efficiency of smear layer removal during endodontic treatment using scanning electron microscopy: an in vitro study [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Oral Health
Background The smear layer formed during root canal instrumentation negatively affects root canal irrigation activity, which in turn can affect the treatment prognosis of endodontic treatment.

The TEMP-PREVENT trial: a study protocol for a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial of etidronate for treatment in young adult patients with pseudoxanthoma elasticum [PDF]

open access: yesTrials
Background Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a genetic disease with autosomal recessive inheritance, characterized by slowly progressive ectopic calcification in the elastic fibers of the skin, Bruch’s membrane in the retina, and in the arteries ...

Calcium Phosphate/Etidronate Disodium Biocement: Etidronate, Retarder or Accelerator [PDF]

open access: yesNano Biomedicine and Engineering, 2014
Bisphosphonate release from calcium phosphate cement has been investigated. We hypothesized that local delivery of bisphosphonate from the calcium phosphate cement improves the mechanical properties.

Case report: Osteomalacia due to bisphosphonate treatment in a patient on hemodialysis

open access: yesBMC Nephrology, 2021
Background No publications have reported on osteomalacia in patients receiving intermittent cyclical therapy with etidronate (a bisphosphonate) and undergoing long-term hemodialysis (HD). Case presentation We report on a 46-year-old Japanese man admitted

The Abcc6a Knockout Zebrafish Model as a Novel Tool for Drug Screening for Pseudoxanthoma Elasticum

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a multisystem ectopic mineralization disorder caused by pathogenic variants in the ABCC6 gene. Though complications of the disease can be treated, PXE itself remains currently intractable.

History of etidronate

open access: yesBone, 2020
Etidronate is a non-nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate. Because it binds with calcium and inhibits crystal formation and dissolution, it was considered by Procter & Gamble as an additive to toothpaste (to prevent build-up of tartar) and detergent (to bind calcium and increase sudsing in "hard" water).

Comparative Evaluation of the Effect of Different Chelating Agents on Mineral Content and Erosion of Radicular Dentine: A FESEM-EDS Analysis

open access: yesEuropean Endodontic Journal, 2023
Objective: Irrigating solutions play an important role in the debridement and disinfection of the root canal space, and thus, it is crucial to comprehend their effects on the composition and surface structure of radicular dentine.
