Effect of simulated pulpal microcirculation on intrachamber temperature changes following application of various curing units on tooth surface.
TL;DR: Evaluating ex vivo the rise in intrachamber temperature induced by the application of various curing units on tooth surface, under conditions of continuous water flow inside the pulp chamber simulating pulp microcirculation found all units proved to be safe for use.

TL;DR: The presence of accessory canals in micro-CT images of maxillary and mandibular root canals showed a statistically significant correlation with the stereomicroscopic images used as a gold standard, but CBCT is not capable of adequately analyzing the internal anatomy of primary teeth.

In vivo evaluation of ProPex electronic apex locator.
TL;DR: The results of this in vivo study showed that measurements after extirpation had the smallest distance to the ALs, whereas saline group had the greatest, and among the irrigation solution groups, chlorhexidine gluconate group had a smaller distance than saline group.
