The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficiencies of different irrigation protocols in the removal of triple antibiotic paste (TAP) from root canals. ⋯ The use of irrigation systems improved the removal of TAP from the simulated immature root canals. Also, as an irrigation solution EDTA gives more promising results than PAA and HEBP solutions.

Bond strength of fiber posts. ⋯ Based on the results, aluminum-oxide airborne-particle abrasion group showed higher and FS irradiation group showed lower bond strength values. Push-out bond strength values of the root segments were the same in all groups.

The aim of this study was to determine the influence of irrigants on bond strength of adhesive systems. ⋯ Different irrigants had several effects on bonding of different adhesives. Sodium ascorbate after NaOCl could restore compromised bond strengths.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the changes of incisor root resorption associated with impacted maxillary canines and health of periodontal tissues around maxillary canines erupted with orthodontic treatment. ⋯ Incisor root resorption associated with impacted canine teeth showed signs of repair after orthodontic treatment. Slight differences related to periodontal health were found between the previously impacted teeth and contralateral canine teeth.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of self-etch and self-adhesive resin cements on the shear bond strength of ceramic core materials bonded to dentin. ⋯ The self-etch adhesive resin cements exhibited better shear bond strength than the self-adhesive resin cements, except for Panavia cement in the IPS e.max Press group. However, shear bond strengths of the self-adhesive resin cements were dependent on the nature of the ceramic core materials.
