Histopathological Evaluation of the Dental Pulps in Crown-Fractured Teeth
TL;DR: Investigation of histopathological changes in pulpal tissues at different time periods after crown fractures found varying degrees of inflammation, and neuronal degeneration such as intramyelin edema, aberrant myelin synthesis, and axonal swelling.

The effect of CO2 laser irradiation on PDL cell attachment to resected root surfaces.
TL;DR: Absence of PDL attachment to laser irradiated dentin could be attributed to morphological surface changes in dentin produced by laser irradiation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Management of endodontic pain with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents: a double-blind, placebo-controlled study.
TL;DR: Overall, piroxicam was clearly more effective than diclofenac or the placebo, and provided more consistent relief of pain, beginning 2 hours after the initial dose, and it continued to do so at every interval thereafter.

Evaluation of the radiopacity of different root canal sealers.
Melahat Görduysus,Nihal Avcu +1 more
TL;DR: Whether the opacity of the sealers alone is more or less than 3 mm Al, theirRadiopacity is increased when they are used in combination with gutta-percha, because of its higher radiopacity.

Endoscopic endodontic microsurgery: 2-year evaluation of healing and functionality
TL;DR: No difference related to tooth type or tooth location was found at the 2-year follow-up and Fisher's exact test was used to statistically assess the difference between successful and unsuccessful cases for each of the variables considered.
