Influence of Passive Ultrasonic Irrigation on the Removal of Root Canal Filling Material in Straight Root Canals [PDF]
This study evaluates the efficacy of passive ultrasonic irrigation (PUI) in removing root canal filling material from endodontically treated teeth after using one of two reciprocating systems, Reciproc (VDW, Munich, Germany) or WaveOne (Dentsply Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland), or one nickel-titanium (NiTi) rotary system, ProTaper Universal ...

Root filling bond strength using reciprocating file-matched single-cones with different sealers
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the bond strength (BS) of root canal fillings to root dentin using the reciprocating file-matched single-cone or lateral compaction techniques with resin-based and calcium-silicate-based sealers.

High-Resolution Segmentation of Tooth Root Fuzzy Edge Based on Polynomial Curve Fitting with Landmark Detection [PDF]
As the most economical and routine auxiliary examination in the diagnosis of root canal treatment, oral X-ray has been widely used by stomatologists. It is still challenging to segment the tooth root with a blurry boundary for the traditional image segmentation method. To this end, we propose a model for high-resolution segmentation based on polynomial

In-Ear Measurement of Blood Oxygen Saturation: An Ambulatory Tool Needed To Detect The Delayed Life-Threatening Hypoxaemia in COVID-19 [PDF]
Non-invasive ambulatory estimation of blood oxygen saturation has emerged as an important clinical requirement to detect hypoxemia in the delayed post-infective phase of COVID-19, where dangerous hypoxia may occur in the absence of subjective breathlessness.

Comparison of imaging with sub-wavelength resolution in the canalization and resonant tunnelling regimes [PDF]
We compare the properties of subwavelength imaging in the visible wavelength range for metal-dielectric multilayers operating in the canalization and the resonant tunnelling regimes. The analysis is based on the transfer matrix method and time domain simulations.

Antimicrobial Efficacy of Medicated Root Canal Filling Materials
Bacteria remaining within the root canal system are a significant factor in endodontic failures. The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the antimicrobial efficacy of commercially available gutta-percha formulations against common endodontic pathogens. Standard, tetracycline, or iodoform (also called medicated gutta-percha; MGP) containing gutta-
