Abstract
Providing effective pain control is a critical part of dental treatment, yet achieving consistently reliable anesthesia in the mandible has proved elusive. The traditional inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) has a high failure rate; for example, the failure rate in lateral incisors...

Abstract
I to III undergoing infra-umbilical surgery were enrolled. Seven patients were excluded from the study and the rest divided into two groups to receive either combined spinal epidural anaesthesia (group A) or isolated subarachnoid anaesthesia, unaided by an introducer (group B). The two groups were c...

Abstract
The primary endodontic treatment goal is to optimize root canal disinfection and to prevent reinfection. Successful root canal therapy relies on the combination of proper instrumentation, irrigation, and obturation of the root canal system. In this review of the literature, various irrigants and the...

Abstract
During the 0- to 4-, 4- to 24-, and 24- to 48-hour intervals after treatment, the pain experience with the negative apical pressure device was significantly lower than when using the needle irrigation (p < 0.0001 [4, 24, 48 hours]). Between 0 and 4 and 4 and 24 hours, the intake of analgesics was si...

Very high levels of root canal cleanliness (< or = score 3) were found for each test group with activation. For the middle and apical third, the no-activation group was significantly less effective than the three other activation groups (p < 0.05). The manual-dynamic activation group (final rinse 17...

A statistically significant difference was evidenced among groups (F(3) = 9.01, p < 0.001). The standard irrigation groups (NaOCl 15 and 30) showed higher microbial counts than the EA 30 group (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Thirty seconds of NaOCl subsonic agitation with EndoActivator appears to be slightl...

Abstract
We find that amoebae and neutrophils, cells traditionally used to study cell migration on a solid surface, move toward a chemotactic source while suspended in solution. They can swim and do so with speeds similar to those on a solid substrate. Based on the surprisingly rapidly changing shape of amoe...
