Tooth germ autotransplantation of open apices of the teeth exhibits high pulpal healing rates, whereas that of mature permanent teeth normally causes irreversible pulpal necrosis. Extraoral root-end resection (EORER) during transplantation may promot...
Background: While widely investigated in implantology and nonsurgical endodontics, evidence on the application of dynamic navigation systems (DNSs) in endodontic surgery remains limited. This systematic review aimed to assess their accuracy and relia...
Implementation of augmented reality (AR) image guidance systems using preoperative cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans in apicoectomies promises to help surgeons overcome iatrogenic complications associated with this procedure. This study aims...
Although the application of ultrasounds in endodontic surgery allows for effective debridement of the root canal, incorrect device setting or inefficient tips seem to generate cracks during root-end retropreparation. The primary aim of this in vitro...
The aim of this study is to compare root-end preparation performed with two different ultrasonic tips—CVDentus and NSK—and respective time requirements. After root-end resection, 32 teeth were randomly divided in two groups, according to...
Marginal adaptation and internal porosity characteristics of root-end filling materials are important factors determining their clinical performance. The aim of this study was to quantitatively evaluate the marginal adaptation to radicular dentin (in...
Background: The present study aimed to classify the relative contributions of four biomechanical factors—the root-end filling material, the apical preparation, the root resection length, and the bone height—on the root stresses of the res...
Autotransplantation of a mature tooth usually leads to pulpal necrosis. Root canal treatment is recommended to prevent related inflammatory complications a few weeks after surgery. Extraoral root-end resection may facilitate reperfusion and obviate r...
Background: Periapical surgery is indicated for persistent periapical lesions that do not respond to conventional endodontic therapy, yet postoperative recovery is often hindered by pain, swelling, and delayed healing. Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) memb...
Background/Objectives: In oral and maxillofacial surgery, apicoectomy is a standard procedure for treating persistent periapical infections after insufficient conservative treatment. Traditional techniques rely on direct visualization, while navigate...
The aim of this in vitro study was to compare the apical sealing ability of total fill bioceramic root repair material (BC-RRM) and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), regarding the retrograde preparation technique used: ultrasonic or erbium, chromium:...
Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of retro-cavity preconditioning with or without 17% ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) solution on root surface pH as well as dislodgement resistance of NeoMTA2 and MTA Flow retro-f...
Although aortic resection and end-to-end anastomosis are applied to repair ascending aortic aneurysm, there is a lack of information on the late risk of post-operative complications, such as aortic dissection and aneurysmal re-dilatation. It is recog...
The ideal root end filling material should form a tight seal in the root canal by adhering to the cavity walls. Several materials have been used for root end filling. The present study aims to find out and compare the bioactivity of Neo MTA Plus, Pro...
The aim of the present study was to investigate the influence of the mechanical properties of three different calcium-silicate-based cements on the stress distribution of three different retrograde cavity preparations. Biodentine™ “BD&rdq...

(1) Background: We sought to analyze and compare the outcomes in terms of early and late mortality and freedom from a redo operation in patients undergoing surgical treatment for a type A acute aortic dissection in relation to the initial surgical tr...
Background: Lasers from the erbium family have been investigated to activate irrigation with sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), improving the disinfection depth of the dentinal tubules of the root canal walls during root canal treatment. However, the possi...
Background/Objectives: The aim of the present investigation was to validate the diagnostic performance of the AI-based dental cloud software Diagnocat® AIS (Version 1.0 (UDI: 860010268018), DGNCT LLC, Miami, FL, USA) regarding the detection possi...
