Local Antibiotic Therapy In Endodontic Treatment

This case study reports that bisphosphonate therapy, used to treat osteoporosis, can lead to jawbone necrosis, as demonstrated in an 82-year-old patient who experienced severe complications requiring surgical intervention. The authors recommend comprehensive dental care before and avoidance of invasive procedures during bisphosphonate treatment.

This study suggests that although hydroxyapatite gel has strong bactericidal effects, its combination with platelet-enriched blood autoplasm does not enhance antibacterial activity in endodontic treatment for chronic apical periodontitis.

This review explores the integration of robotics in dentistry, highlighting their use in oral surgery, prosthetics, endodontics, and orthodontics, and discusses the current state of clinical research along with potential future advancements in the field.

This abstract discusses the transformative impact of digital technologies like 3D scanning and intraoral imaging in dentistry, emphasizing their role in enhancing implant placement precision and root canal treatments, which can improve treatment processes and patient outcomes.

This study found that using a collagen sponge with lincomycin reduced inflammation and pathogen presence in alveolar osteitis more effectively than iodoform gauze, leading to faster socket healing.
