  • Clinical Implications of Calcifying Nanoparticles in Dental Diseases: a Critical Review
    International Journal of Nanomedicine Dovepress open access to scientific and medical research Open Access Full Text Article REVIEW Clinical implications of calcifying nanoparticles in dental diseases: a critical review Mohammed S Alenazy1 Background: Unknown cell-culture contaminants were described by Kajander and Ciftçioğlu Hezekiah A Mosadomi2,3 in 1998. These contaminants were called nanobacteria initially and later calcifying nanoparticles (CNPs). Their exact nature is unclear and controversial. CNPs have unique and unusual charac- 1Restorative Dentistry Department, 2Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology teristics, which preclude placing them into any established evolutionary branch of life. 3 Department, Research Center, Riyadh Aim: The aim of this systematic review was to assess published data concerning CNPs since Colleges of Dentistry and Pharmacy, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia 1998 in general and in relation to dental diseases in particular. Materials and methods: The National Library of Medicine (PubMed) and Society of Pho- tographic Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE) electronic and manual searches were conducted. Nanobacteria and calcifying nanoparticles were used as keywords. The search yielded 135 full-length papers. Further screening of the titles and abstracts that followed the review criteria resulted in 43 papers that met the study aim. Conclusion: The review showed that the existence of nanobacteria is still controversial. Some inves- tigators have described a possible involvement of CNPs in pulpal and salivary gland calcifications, as well as the possible therapeutic use of CNPs in the treatment of cracked and/or eroded teeth. Keywords: calcifying nanoparticles, nanobacteria, sialolith, pulp stone, enamel repair Introduction Unknown cell-culture contaminants were first described by Kajander and Ciftçiog˘lu in 1998.

  • Assessment of the Frequency and Correlation of Carotid Artery
    Clinical and Experimental Health Sciences Assessment of The Frequency and Correlation of Carotid Artery Calcifications and Pulp Stones with Idiopathic Osteosclerosis Using Digital Panoramic Radiographs Sema Sonmez Kaplan , Tuna Kaplan , Guzide Pelin Sezgin Department of Endodontics, Faculty of Dentistry, Biruni University, Istanbul, Turkey. Correspondence Author: Sema Sonmez Kaplan E-mail: [email protected] Received: 15.12.2020 Accepted: 25.03.2021 ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the correlation of carotid artery calcifications (CACs) and pulp stones with idiopathic osteosclerosis (IO) using digital panoramic radiographs (DPRs) to determine whether pulp stones or IO might be possible indicators of the presence of CACs. Methods: In total, DPRs of 1207 patients (645 females and 562 males) taken within 2018 were retrospectively evaluated to determine the prevalence of CACs, pulp stones and IO according to age and sex. Statistical analysis was performed using chi-square test and Fisher’s exact chi- square test. Results: In total, 287 (23.8%) patients had at least one pulp stone, and 64 (5.3%) patients had CACs. The negative/negative (-/-) status of CACs/ pulp stones was significantly higher in the 18–29 years age group than in the 30–39, 40–49, 50–59 and ≥60 years age groups (p<0.05). It was also significantly higher in males than females (p<0.05). Sixteen (1.3%) patients had IO, which was related to right mandibular molars in all cases. Patients with CACs had a significantly higher prevalence of IO (6.3%) than those without CACs (1%) (p<0.05). There was no statistically significant association between pulp stones and the presence of IO and CACs (p>0.05).

  • Pulp Calcification
    It is a localized or generalized condition of pulp tissue characterized by the presence of pulp stone in the pulp tissue in the form of calcified bodies. Site: coronal or radicular dentine. Size: variable Sign and symptoms: painless Radiographic features: Radio opaque mass of variable size in pulp chamber and pulp canal. HISTOLOGICAL TYPES True pulp stone: consist of dentinal tubules. False pulp stones: consists of concentric calcified rings. Free pulp stones: is freely located in pulp chamber and pulp canals. Attached pulp stone: is adherent to dentine wall. Embeded pulp stone: is surrounded by secondary dentine. complications It can interferes with root canal treatment. Causes pain if it impinges on major nerves of pulp. Pulp necrosis It is an irreversible condition of pulp tissue characterized by dead pulp tissue and degeneration (necrosis). Aetiology Severely irritant agent. Sign and symptoms: painfull Duration: 10-15min, severe and short. Precipitating factors of pain: hot and cold agents Nature of pain: Throbbing, continuous and radiating. Pain stops as precipitating factors are removed. Periapical lesions Periapical abscess Periapical granuloma Periapical cyst Aetiology of periapical pathosis Presence of open or closed pulpitis Virulence of involved organisms Extent of sclerosis of detinal tubules Competency of the host immune response. Periapical granuloma It refers to a mass of chronically inflammed granulation tissue at the apex of a non vital tooth. May arise either after an acute condition like periapial abscess becomes quiet or may arise denovo. Importance: These lesions are not static and may transform into periapical cyst or undergo acute excerbation. Clinical features Mostly asymptomatic. Pain and sensitivity developes if it undergoes acute excerbation.
