This study aimed to investigate the perspectives, preferences, and clinical experiences regarding using electronic apex locator and apex locator integrated instrumentation of dentists and endodontists...
A web-based questionnaire consisting of 3 parts and 23 closed-ended questions to achieve the objective of the study was carried out in ethical conditions between August and October 2023. The first par...
A total of 297 clinicians, including 59 endodontists and 34 endodontic residents/Ph.D. students participated in the questionnaire. Endodontists and endodontic residents/Ph.D. students perform statisti...
Dentists, as well as endodontists, are skeptical about apex locator-integrated engine-driven instrumentation. Using this technique as a supporter rather than a primary way for preparation within safe ...
The primary step in forensic odontological analysis is sex determination. The present study is one of the few studies that evaluated the accuracy of the combination of canine tooth root length and cro...
Recently, other combinations of teeth are claimed to be better predictors for size estimation of permanent canine and premolars. The present study aimed to determine which combinations of teeth presen...
A total of 500 (323 females, 177 males) participants meeting the inclusion criteria were randomly selected from private orthodontic clinics. Mesiodistal dimensions of selected teeth obtained from pre-...
Different combinations of teeth showed a higher correlation with the sum of permanent canine and premolars. In females, group 13 (Mandibular incisors and maxillary first molars) and in males, group 15...
Permanent mandibular incisors may not be better predictors when used alone. Newly developed equations, based on different combinations of teeth, more accurately predicted the sum of mesiodistal dimens...
We investigated the interference of apical constriction position and diameter on the accuracy of electronic apex locators using 3D-printed tooth models. Single-rooted tooth models with the same length...
The aim of this study was to compare the difference in length and width of the mandibular retromolar space (RMS) stratified by the different eruption and impaction statuses of the third molars in pati...
The right mandibular RMS in 186 adult patients categorized according to the different statuses of the third molar was analyzed by using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). The shortest distances bet...
RL in different measurement planes was 2.72 ± 2.22 ~ 3.74 ± 2.26 for Group A, 5.27 ± 1.68 ~ 9.10 ± 2.04 for Group B, 1.94 ± 2.34 ~ 5.71 ± 4.37 for Group C, 1.83 ± 2.95 ~ 5.05 ± 4.24 for Group D, and 5...
Sex had no effect on the length or width of the mandibular RMS. Different statuses of third molars can also differentially affect the mandibular RMS. The mandibular RMS width is not a limit for mandib...
When considering the distalization of mandibular molars, more attention should be directed to the lingual cortex of the mandible, and CBCT scans are recommended for patients who require significant ma...
This study aims to evaluate the ability of Raypex 6, Propex Pixi, Dentaport ZX, Apex ID, Propex II and Dr.'s Finder NEO to detect minimum root canal perforation diameter. One hundred single-rooted, ex...
The present meta-analysis aimed to describe the methods to determine the working length in primary teeth pulpectomy, also evaluating and comparing their reliability. A systematic review was performed ...
This study aimed to compare the in vivo accuracy of Wirele-X and RootZX II electronic apex locators (EALs) in determining the position of the major foramen using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) a...
Eleven vital teeth planned for extraction from 5 patients were used. After conventional access cavity preparation, root canals were flared and negotiated up to the apical third with sizes 08 and 10 K-...
Within a tolerance level of ± 0.5 mm, no significant differences were observed between the tested EALs regarding the absolute distance values (P = .82) or in their ability to detect the position of th...
Root ZX II and Wirele-X performed similarly regarding the in vivo detection of the major foramen. Using strict criteria, the accuracy of the Root ZX II and the Wirele-X apex locators were 81.8% and 90...
This retrospective investigation aimed to compare Bolton's ratios among different malocclusion groups of Egyptian adolescent orthodontic patients with original Bolton's standards....
Pre-treatment dental casts of 588 Egyptian subjects, 290 males and 298 females with mean age 16.7±2.2 years, were randomly selected and classified into 220 class I (108 males and 112 females), 230 cla...
The anterior mean ratio for the total sample were higher (79.4±4.7) and overall mean ratio was lower (90.1±5) than Bolton's standards. The differences between the obtained and standard values were sta...
Tooth size ratios of Egyptian orthodontic patients are generally different than the original Bolton's standards. Patients with class I and class III malocclusions had greater anterior and overall rati...
This study documents deciduous tooth crown dimensions and sex dimorphism in modern Malay children of Indonesia. Comparisons are made with living and prehistoric East and South Asians to better underst...
Measurements of the dental crown were made with a Mitutoyo digimatic caliper, interfaced with a Dell laptop, running Microsoft Excel (2003). Buccolingual (BL) measurements of maximum crown breadth of ...
Crown dimensions, sex dimorphism and crown areas are presented and reveal consistencies in tooth size and level of sexual dimorphism with East and South Asian living samples. Sex dimorphism in Malay c...
Sex dimorphism in Malay deciduous crown dimensions is lower than average among Asians and total tooth crown area is similar to living East and South Asians but is reduced when compared with prehistori...
