Abstract: Objective: To evaluate the effect of 5.25% sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) on the physicochemical properties of the endodontic sealers AH Plus Bioceramic Sealer and AH Plus.
Materials and methods: An in vitro study was conducted using two endodontic sealers with different chemical compositions. Samples were prepared in resin molds and exposed to either 5.25% sodium hypochlorite or distilled water as a control. Solubility, pH, and surface microhardness properties were evaluated according to ISO 6876.......

Keywords: Irrigants, NaClO, Bioceramic sealers, AH Plus Bioceramic Sealer, AH Plus, Solubility, pH, Microhardness, SEM, EDS.

Abstract: Autogenous tooth transplantation, or autotransplantation (AT)—the surgical relocation of a donor tooth within the same individual. There are numerous indications for autotransplantation (AT). It serves as a therapeutic option in cases of tooth loss due to trauma, caries, periodontal disease, or endodontic issues, as well as in cases of impaction or agenesis. Contraindications may be absolute—precluding the procedure entirely—or relative, meaning the procedure may be performed after a certain period or once appropriate conditions have been established. The healing of periodontal wounds is generally considered a more complex process compared to the healing of epidermal wounds. Complications during healing include root resorption—which may manifest as inflammatory resorption or replacement resorption (leading to ankylosis)—pulp necrosis, impaired periodontal healing, etc....

Keywords: Autotransplantation (AT), Periodonal ligament (PDL), External root resorption, Mineral Trioxide (MTA).

Abstract: Background: The morphology of the mandibular condyle exhibits variations which may be helpful in temporomandibular joint assessment and forensic identification. Orthopantomograms (OPGs) are one of the most convenient methods for evaluating these variations.
Aim: To assess mandibular condylar morphology and bilateral symmetry in adult population of Ahmedabad, Gujarat and determine their association with age and gender.
