Premature loss of primary molars often leads to loss of arch circumference in the primary and mixed dentition. It can lead to malpositioning and even impaction of permanent tooth, if not prevented. Space maintainers in preventive orthodontics, are imperative in maintaining arch integrity. Band and loop space maintainers are indicated whenever there is premature loss of primary molar. The conventional band and loop space maintainer is most routinely fabricated, but poses certain limitations. Three-dimensional (3D) printing in digital dentistry is one of the major developments in dentistry. It replicates the dental cast in t...

Comparative Evaluation of Indirect Pulp Therapy in Young Permanent Teeth using Biodentine and Theracal: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Conclusions: Radiographic and clinical outcomes of Theracal and Biodentine suggest their use as an alternative material for IPT in young permanent molars with higher success. (Source: Journal of Clinical Pediatric Dentistry)

Comparison of Fracture Strengths among different Commonly Placed Anterior Esthetic Restorations for Primary Dentition: An in vitro study
Conclusions: Under the limitations of this in vitro study, it could be concluded that all-ceramic zirconia-based crowns attained the highest fracture strength among all restorative samples tested regardless of the type of luting agent employed (P<.01). Cohesive failures were commonly observed in the zirconia crowns and resin strip crowns, whereas polycarbonate crowns revealed predominately mixed failures.

Treatment Outcomes of Pulpectomy in Primary Maxillary Incisors Filled with ZOE and Metapex: A Two-year Retrospective Study
Conclusions. The radiographic success rates are comparable between the ZOE and Metapex groups. Clinical pathological manifestations such as pain and soft tissue pathosis are seen in the Metapex group at recalls, but none in the ZOE group. Predisposing factors such as type of incisor, preoperative root resorption, and extent of filling at recalls are associated with the radiographic success rate.

A Staged Expansion Screw Protocol to Retract the Premaxilla In BCLP Infants with Delayed Nasoalveolar Molding
Currently, the treatment protocol for cleft palate at several centers around the world involves primary lip repair around 3-4 months of age, using presurgical nasoalveolar molding, which is done soon after birth. Unfortunately, in cases where treatment is delayed, the potential for repositioning the nasoalveolar apparatus is severely limited. The purpose of this paper is to illustrate a novel use of an expansion screw appliance to aid in the faster and more efficient active molding of the premaxillary and lateral maxillary segments in infants for whom the start of PNAM therapy is delayed, without the side effects commonly ...

Characterization of Stem Cells from Human Exfoliated Deciduous Anterior Teeth with Varying Levels of Root Resorption
Conclusion: Based on the cellular, phenotypic and biological characteristics, it is suggested that SHED (2/3) could be a useful source for tissue regeneration, and warrants further investigations. (Source: Journal of Clinical Pediatric Dentistry)

Perception Regarding Pediatric Dentist ’s Appearance and Factors Influencing the Child’s Responses
Conclusion: The C and D attires promoted a more positive perception of the appearance of a pediatric dentist when compared to A; however, age, gender, previous dental experience, and anxiety did not influence the perception scores. (Source: Journal of Clinical Pediatric Dentistry)

Maxillary Development in Patients with Unilateral Cleft Lip and Palate Compared with Individuals Having Skeletal Class I and Class III Malocclusion
Conclusion: Maxillary development in CLP differs from skeletal Class I but is similar to skeletal Class III. Considering the delay in maxillary development in the CLP patient, maxillary protraction and maxillary expansion are important treatment protocols in the early period.

Comparative Analysis of Space Maintenance Using Transpalatal Arch and Nance Button
Conclusions: The loss of space in the unilateral second primary molar is higher in the TPA group than in the NB group, with significant statistically differences (p<0.05). It is concluded that the loss of the leeway space using a TPA as a space maintainer is greater than using a NB. (Source: Journal of Clinical Pediatric Dentistry)

Tooth Discoloration Induced by Different Calcium Silicate –Based Cements: A Two-Year Spectrophotometric and Photographic Evaluation in Vitro
Conclusions: Discoloration elicited by CSCs may develop soon after placement, and continue to increase for up to two years. Angelus MTA and ProRooT MTA cannot be recommended for vital pulp therapies in the esthetic zone of young individuals. (Source: Journal of Clinical Pediatric Dentistry)

Frequency of Pathogenic Microorganisms in Removable Orthodontic Appliances and Oral Mucosa in Children
Conclusions: The frequency of S. aureus, P. aeruginosa, and Candida spp. increased after the orthodontic treatment in either the ROA and or in the support oral mucosa. There is a direct relation between the use of the ROA and the increase of periodontal-pathogenic microorganisms. (Source: Journal of Clinical Pediatric Dentistry)

Occlusal Disorders in Patients with Sickle Cell Disease: Critical Literature Review
Conclusion: Malocclusion prevalence in SCD patients is high and considered to be a risk factor, with a significant rate of very severe malocclusion when compared to healthy patients. (Source: Journal of Clinical Pediatric Dentistry)

Role of Marginal Ridge Shape and Contact Extent in Proximal Caries Between Primary Molars
Conclusion: Six different combinations of intact MRS were identified. Combination of concave-convex shapes exhibited caries extending into dentin. Substantial and/or light contacts between primary molars showed higher caries experience in the approximal surfaces. (Source: Journal of Clinical Pediatric Dentistry)

Absorbable Hemostatic Pack Effect After Primary Incisor Extraction: A Pilot Study and Introduction of a Novel Scale to Assess Post-Operative Bleeding
Conclusions: Twenty-five patients provided 50 teeth. Hemostatic pack had a significant effect on reducing bleeding at each time point and that effect did not change over time. Age, sex, tooth pain, post-extraction heart rate, blood pressure, discoloration, amount of resorption, and presence of a periapical radiolucency had no significant effect on bleeding. The proposed bleeding scale had good intra-rater reliability and could be useful in future studies, once validated. (Source: Journal of Clinical Pediatric Dentistry)
