MicroRNAs: New Insights into the Pathogenesis of Endodontic Periapical Disease [PDF]
Apical periodontitis is an inflammatory disease of the periradicular tissues caused by the host’s immune response to infection of the root canal system. microRNAs (miRNAs) have been shown to play an important role in the regulation of inflammation and the immune response; however, their role in the pathogenesis of endodontic periapical disease has not ...

Abstract Background Autogenous particulate dentin has emerged as one of the promising biocompatible alternatives to traditional bone graft materials in alveolar ridge augmentation. Although its clinical success is documented, comprehensive studies combining histological and radiographic evaluations remain limited. This case report addresses this gap by
