Lesion sterilization and tissue repair (LSTR) treatment is very effective in disinfecting the root canal using triple antibiotic mixed in a suitable vehicle. This report is highlighting a case where LSTR therapy was done using triple antibiotic paste in primary molar showing peri-radicular pathosis and root resorption. On one-year follow-up, the tooth was asymptomatic with reduction in peri-radicular pathosis and root resorption. Thus, LSTR can be successful for nonvital pulp therapy in primary teeth with peri-radicular pathosis and root resorption. And also, LSTR therapy can be used as an alternative option to extraction in treating primary teeth with peri-radicular pathosis.

Aim: Non-instrumental endodontic therapy has stood out for being a minimal intervention approach that uses a mixture of antibiotics to disinfect the root canals. The purpose of this case report was to describe the treatment and 36-month follow-up of a deciduous necrotic molar using the modified technique of “Injury Sterilization and Tissue Repair” (LSTR). Methodology: A 5-year-old female patient sought dental care complaining of pain in the region of tooth 85 whose oral clinical examination revealed the presence of caries with pulp involvement. In the preoperative period (T1), the patient presented with fistula, abscess and edema. Endodontic treatment was performed using the LSTR technique with triple antibiotic paste. In the follow-up, due to radiographic aspects, a large interradicular lesion was observed in T1 and at the end of the follow-up (T4 / T5), complete bone regeneration was observed in the region. Conclusion: Due to the high antibacterial efficacy of the paste used, the LSTR technique showed satisfactory results in the pulpectomy of a deciduous necrotic molar. Clinical significance: This technique shows the potential to be used in cases to being performed in a shorter operative time, which can be useful in the treatment of children with negative behavior.

The Moment

Seventy primary molar teeth, carious exposed, symptom free, without any sign of root resorption in children aged from 3 to 6 years (main age 4.3yr) were treated with conventional pulpotomy procedures. Ferric sulfate 15.5% solution (applied for 15 second for 35 teeth) and formocresol solution (five minute procedure of Buckley's formula for next 35 teeth) have been used as pulpotomy agents. In both groups, pulp stumps were covered with zinc-oxide eugenol paste. Permanent restorations were stainless steel crowns. Clinical check up was every three-months and radiographic follow-up time was six and twenty months after treatment. Our results within this period revealed 100% clinical success rate in both groups. Radiographic success rate was in both groups 97.2%, while in 2.8% cases has shown internal root resorption. On the basis of these results, we can recommend ferric sulfate as a pulpotomy agent in primary teeth in substitution for formocresol at the moment.

Internal inflammatory root resorption in primary teeth is a well-known entity with unknown prevalence. The diagnosis and conservative treatment of such a lesion has perplexed practitioners for decades. The management of a non-perforating internal root resorption is long been debated by general dentists and paediatric dentists alike. This case presentation describes the case of a 4-year old boy with non-perforating internal root resorption in a primary molar treated successfully with endodontic procedure and monitored routinely for four years. The objective here was to suggest a minimally-invasive treatment alternative to conventional treatment practices.

Ankylosis is a condition frequently associated with primary molars, wherein the ankylosed primary teeth remain in a fixed position, while the adjacent teeth continue to erupt, moving occlusally. In this case report, a five-year-old boy, who had a retained and submerged left lower second primary molar, was presented. Luxation of ankylosed primary molar was considered as a treatment approach. After four months, the tooth erupted to the occlusal level, and there was evidence of further development of a permanent successor in radiographic evaluation. After one year, tooth mobility, bone formation, and development of a permanent successor were in good condition.

AIM: The aim of this study is to present severe root resorption following obturation of the primary molar with zinc oxide eugenol (ZOE) at different follow-up periods. CASE REPORT: We present the case of a 6-year-old boy with decayed lower primary molars. Pulpectomy for pulpally involved primary molars was performed. ZOE has been used as root canal filling material and follow-up was done at 3, 6, and 9 months. CONCLUSION: External root resorption was detected at 3 months and the resorptive process continued till 9 months. This finding emphasizes the need for alternative filling material with less irritating properties.

<p><strong>Objective</strong>: The aim of this study was to compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes of Calcium Hydroxide (CH), Calcium Hydroxide preceded by corticosteroid/antibiotic solution (O+CH) and diluted formocresol (FC) in the vital pulp therapy of human primary teeth. <strong>Material and methods</strong>: Forty-five mandibular primary molars of children aged between 5-9 years were randomly assigned in the three study groups, FC, CH and O+CH and received conventional pulpotomy treatment. Clinical and radiographic follow-up was made at 3, 6 and 12-months. <strong>Results</strong>: No sign of clinical failure was observed in the three study groups during all the periods of evaluation. Radiographic analysis showed a total of six cases of internal root resorption in CH and O+CH groups after the 12 months follow-up, with statistically significant difference as compared with FC group. FC group did not show hard tissue barrier formation, that was observed in CH and O+CH groups in all the follow-up periods. <strong>Conclusion</strong>: All employed materials showed acceptable clinical and radiographic success rates. The results showed that the use of an anti-inflammatory solution prior the dressing material has therapeutic properties that help with pulpal healing. Continued clinical investigations using these medicaments as vital pulpotomy treatment in primary molars are recommended. </p>

Relevance. To study the incidence of different types of resorption of multirooted primary teeth, to specify indications for deciduous molar extraction to prevent eruption abnormalities of permanent posterior teeth in mixed dentition.Materials and methods. Root resorption of 375 multirooted primary teeth (166 first primary molars and 209 second primary molars) was studied on panoramic X-rays of 60 children (30 girls and 30 boys) aged between 7 and 15. Illustrated classification by T.F. Vinogradova (1967) improved by authors was used to determine type and degree of root resorption of multi-rooted primary teeth. Received data were described with absolute values of number of cases and percentage. Chi-square was used to detect differences in sign incidence rate between groups, p<0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results. There were no statistically significant gender differences (p>0,05) in type and degree of root resorption of multirooted primary teeth. Type A resorption prevailed and constituted 53.3% of all primary molars. Disturbances in root resorption of multirooted primary teeth in mixed dentition were related to health condition of primary teeth. Transition of even resorption to unven was considered a risk factor of delayed eruption and aberrant position of permanent teeth, and indication for extraction of a primary molar in question. Conclusions. 1) Even root resorption (type A) was detected in 53.3% of primary molars in mixed dentition by orthopantomography. 2) Transition from even resorption of primary molar roots to uneven resorption was associated with eruption deviations and delayed premolar eruption. 3) Timely extraction of primary molars with uneven root resorption facilitated correct eruption of premolars and increased effectiveness of secondary prevention of malocclusion in children.

Purpose: Ocular features of Alport syndrome include anterior lenticonus, posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy, and fleck-and-dot retinopathy in most cases. Keratoconus in such patients has been rarely mentioned in previous studies. To our knowledge, this is the first report of corneal cross-linking for halting the progression of keratoconus in a patient with Alport syndrome. Case report: A 22-year-old male was referred for his initial corneal topography, after he was already prescribed with rigid gas-permeable contact lenses. Alport syndrome was diagnosed in his infancy and gene COL4A5 mutation was confirmed. Ophthalmological evaluation confirmed keratoconus. One-year follow-up showed a progression on his right eye and standard corneal cross-linking was performed. Stabilization of the disease marked by normalization in visual function and corneal tomography values was noticed 1 year after the procedure. Conclusions: When diagnosing ocular clinical findings of Alport syndrome, keratoconus should be considered. Standard corneal cross-linking protocol can halt its progression.

Calcium hydroxide [Ca(OH)2] has been widely used as an intracanal medicament especially in treatment of periapical lesion. This case report will discuss about calcium hydroxide as intracanal medicament in a periapical lesion of an upper left central incisor. This case describes about treatment of periapical lesion with suspect of infected cyst with symptoms and root resorption. Root canal preparation was done by crown down technique using protaper hands universal from S1/27mm until F5/27mm. Calcium hydroxide paste was continuously applicated every 2 weeks as intracanal medicament until the periapical index (PAI) of lesion decrease, in this case PAI decreased from scale 5 until scale 2 during three months recall. Calcium hydroxide supports tissue repair, stimulates fibroblast formation and damage the cytoplasmic membrane of bacteria, denature their proteins or damage the DNA by its alkaline property. As conclusion, the use of calcium hydroxide successfully decrease the periapical lesion index in the periapical radiograph examination and can be considered as a simple and effective medicament for endodontic infection.
