Efficacy of a 2% Chlorhexidine‐Impregnated Dental Floss in Adults With Gingivitis: A Randomised Clinical Trial

International Journal of Dental Hygiene, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to assess the antigingivitis and antiplaque efficacy of a 2% chlorhexidine (CHX)‐impregnated dental floss in adults with gingivitis. Methods This randomised clinical study included 42 patients diagnosed with gingivitis. They were randomly allocated into three groups: no interdental cleaning (NIC) group, which did not

The Association Between Depression and Use of Dental Services Among U.S. Adults

International Journal of Dental Hygiene, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To assess the use of dental services among depressed individuals and whether the association is independent from the need for dental care. Methods Data were from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) (2017–2020), a cross‐sectional survey of U.S. adults.

Establishment of an MRI‐Based Diagnostic Approach to Identify Critical Pulpal Inflammation Zones in a Rat Caries‐Derived Pulpitis Model

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To establish a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‐based diagnostic approach for identifying ‘critical pulpal inflammation’ zones in a rat model of caries‐derived pulpitis. Methodology Caries‐derived pulpitis was induced in the molars of Sprague–Dawley rats using the caries‐derived pulpitis model.

Development of a Nano‐Hybrid Composite Using Bovine Hydroxyapatite and Montmorillonite for Endodontic Applications—An In Vitro Study

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Hydraulic calcium silicate cements are widely employed in endodontics due to their excellent biocompatibility, bioactivity, sealing ability, and remineralisation potential. However, currently used products such as mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) exhibit several limitations, including discolouration, cost, and poor handling properties ...

The Role of Neuropeptide Y in Dental Pulp: Balancing Neurogenic Inflammation and Pain Modulation

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dental pulp is a densely innervated, low‐compliance tissue in which neurogenic inflammation can rapidly escalate into oedema, raised intrapulpal pressure, microvascular compromise, and pain. While Substance P (SP) and Calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) are well‐established drivers of pulp vasodilation, the Neuroopeptide Y (NPY ...
