Patients must be motivated to practice good brushing and flossing diligently. 3. Healthy diet: A balanced diet low in sugar, acidic, and starc...

  WHERE IS SCIENCE HEADING…? -          By Dhruv Subramanian Oct. 25 th , 2011 Independent thinking or Conformational thinking…? From a student’s perspective looking at the future, I would consider the ideal scenario should be collaborative thinking. While the motivational factors of searching for the truth remain the essence of science not rules, money, or politics.

The dental pulp can be regenerated with stem cells after the mechanical preparation of the infected tooth that is the hypothesis. Dental caries and periodontal infections are two major causes of infection of the dental pulp which leads to root canal preparations with a crown in most cases or extraction of the tooth itself. A root canal treatment is done by first drilling the tooth or the infected dental caries with an airotor. Then, files like needles of different sizes are used to clean the root canals and the pulp chamber mechanically. After this, the canal is irrigated with hypochlorite, hydrogen peroxide, saline, and sometimes, chlorhexidine of low concentration. Laser steril...
