Laser therapy in dentistry can be used to reduce pain, increase genetic bone, stimulate teeth, and reduce localized pain in time periods. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of low-power laser therapy on the surface of PGE2  gingival fluid during orthodontic treatment. Material and Methods: In this double blind clinical trial study, 15 patients with crowning or protrusion of teeth requiring constant orthodontic treatment, along with pulling of the first two right and left prime mules, and then retracting the anterior teeth, were selected. After the first periodontal period examinations was performed in patients undergoing orthodontic treatment. One quadrant was selected as the experimental group and the opposite quadrant was selected as the control group. In the experimental group, low power diode laser irradiation was performed along the entire length of the gingival groove on days 0 (start of treatment), 2, 18 and 30 (total 4 days) after orthodontic treatment and sampling. The samples were transferred to the laboratory and determined at PGE2 level using an ELISAR device. Data were analyzed by Repeated Measure test, Friedman test and paired t-test. Results: The mean the PGE2 fluid in the orthodontic treated teeth, In the days of treatment, 30,18,2 laser radiation was significantly different between the experimental and control groups (P <0.001). In laser therapy, with significant increase in time, there was a significant reduction in PGE2 (p<0.05). Conclusion: Regarding the effect of reducing the pain of using and not using the laser in orthodontic movement, adjuvant treatment with low power laser reduces PGE2 as a mediator causing pain
1445 Prothesis Comparison of two digital devices 3shape TRIOS3 and Vita easyshade V in determining the color of ceramic samples based on the spectroradiometric reference system Nahidi Reza f f Azad Islamic University 1 12 2023 20 4 166 173 14 06 2023 13 10 2023 Abstract Background and Aim: Nowadays, color matching is one of the most challenging issues in dental restorations and cosmetic dentistry. As natural teeth have a wide range of colors, the proportionality of restoration or prosthesis to the remaining teeth, especially in the anterior region, is important. This study was conducted with the aim of comparing two digital devices in determining the color of ceramic samples based on the reference system of spectroradiometry. Materials and Methods: This laboratory experimental study was performed on 48 ceramic samples of A1, B1, C1, and D2 feldspathic ceramics, with six disks of each color, according to the Vita classic shade guide with a diameter of 0.12±0.5 mm and a thickness of 2±0.5 mm. Each of the three digital devices, Vita Easyshade, 3Shape TRIOS3, and CS2000, were calibrated according to the manufacturer's instructions before starting work. In this color evaluation, each ceramic sample was matched with the reference system of CS2000 based on l, a, and b values. Then, ceramic samples were color matched with Vita Easyshade and 3Shape TRIOS3 devices based on CIE lab and Vita classic. The difference in color determination by the three digital devices compared to the reference system was evaluated by SPSS version 26 software and chi-square test (p<0.05). Results: The 3Shape TRIOS3 group had a 66.7% error rate, while the VITA Easyshade V group had a 25% error rate. The difference in the false measurement rate between the two methods was significant (p<0.005), and using the 3Shape TRIOS3 device increased the chance of error by 2.667 times (O.R=2.667). Conclusion: Determining color with the VITA Easyshade V device is better and more accurate than determining color with the 3Shape TRIOS3 device.   1465 Oral Medicine Evaluation of serum vitamin D level, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio and mean platelet volume in patients with recurrent aphthous stomatitis Honarmand Marieh j Khashi Sahar k j University of Medical Sciences k University of Medical Sciences 1 12 2023 20 4 174 180 16 08 2023 07 11 2023 Background and Aim:  Recurrent Aphthous Stomatitis (RAS) is a disorder characterized by recurrent ulcers limited to oral mucosa in patients who have no other symptoms of systemic disease.

The determination of the attitude of oral and maxillofacial surgery residents about the quality of efficacy of peer learning. Materials and Methods: This qualitative study was conducted on 8 oral, maxillofacial surgery residents from the first to the fifth year studying at the Faculty of Dentistry of Tehran Islamic Azad University of Medical Sciences in the academic year of 2022-2023. A semi-structured questionnaire including areas of practical skills, theoretical knowledge, communication skills, mastery of college rules and regulations, and job skills was designed by the researcher. Assistants' attitudes were measured through interviews and their answers to questionnaire questions were reported. Results:. The results showed that in all topics of basic science group education, Ground Round meetings, and in Minor surgery teaching was done by professors to residents. In some cases, if professors are assigned to perform surgery, the training process takes place under the supervision of the senior year. Senior assistants believed that at the beginning of their training in the hospital, due to the lack of access to professors, their training was done through assistants. In most cases, training was done by observation and peer teaching process did not happen. In the discussion of integrating peer learning into the educational curriculum, the residents' opinions were that despite the usefulness of this teaching method, forcing to use it, especially tying certain topics for teaching in this way, cannot be useful. Conclusion:  The results of this research indicate the need for educational institutions and universities to pay more attention to student-centered educational methods such as peer learning, because the use of these methods can complement the teacher's teaching by providing a positive experience and lasting and deep learning.   1434 Oral Medicine Does fluorine total mouthwash has more effects on Enterococcus faecalis,or chlorhexidine? alirezae somayeh o farokhnia taraneh p rezaie maryam zeraati nafiseh alaee Arezoo o islamic azad university p islamic azad university islamic azad university islamic azad university 1 12 2023 20 4 189 195 29 05 2023 16 10 2023 Abstract Background & Aim: Enterococcus faecalis, play a significant role in plaque formation and tooth decay.

Result: A total of 2021 cases of VBD were identified, with 29 cases (1.45%) observed in individuals under the age of 18. Lesions showed a slight preference for females, with a female-to-male ratio of 1.23. Adolescents (13-18 years old) were the most affected age group (51.72%). The combination of lesions on the trunk and oral cavity was the most common combination observed in this study (44.82%). Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) (27.58%) was the most prevalent type of VBD, followed by erythema multiforme (EM) (24.13%), epidermolysis bullosa (EB) (20.68%), and bullous pemphigoid (BP) (17.23%). Conclusion: In summary, PV was the most common type of VBD in our study region, predominantly affecting females. EM and EB had the highest frequencies, with EB being the most common lesion in the birth to 5 years age group. BP had a lower prevalence in these age groups compared to the general population.   1447 Oral Medicine Evaluation of the knowledge, attitude and performance of Ahvaz dental in management of medical emergencies shooriabi mohammad modarres mousavy sedigheh KaabOmeir Farideh liaghat shima Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences 1 12 2023 20 4 223 232 19 06 2023 13 10 2023 Background and Aim: The management of medical emergencies in dentistry is an important issue. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the knowledge, attitude and performance of Ahvaz dental students regarding medical emergencies in the dental office. Methods  and material: The present study was a descriptive study that evaluated 202 dental students. The data collection tool was a questionnaire consisting of 21 questions, which was prepared using other similar researches. The validity of the questionnaire was determined by the opinion of 5 specialists in the field of oral medicine. The reliability of the questionnaire was calculated by calculating the Cronbach coefficient of 0.75 . This questionnaire consisted of three parts: awareness, attitude and self-confidence. Questionnaires were completed in person by referring to the educational departments. The data were analyzed with the help of SPSS 24 software and Anova Analytic test. Result: Self-confidence of male students in emergency medical situations was more than that of female students and it was statistically significant. There was no significant difference between male and female students' awareness of medical emergencies such as foreign body aspiration, anaphylactic shock, seizures, etc. (p = 0.835), while this awareness had a significant difference based on the year of admission(p=001/0). The results showed that syncope was the most frequent among emergency conditions experienced by students. Conclusion: It seems that all students are weak in facing some serious emergency situations such as cardiopulmonary arrest, which requires high awareness and self-confidence to perform CPR, and the students of lower years lack sufficient knowledge about all emergency situations. 1439 Oral Medicine An overview of oral and maxillofacial manifestations of vitamin D deficiency mohebbi rad mahshid Nazemi Salman Bahareh Zarabadi Mobinasadat Zanjan University of Medical Sciences 1 12 2023 20 4 233 248 02 06 2023 14 10 2023 Background and Aim: Vitamin D is a steroid hormone that is obtained primarily from exposure to sunlight, as well as from diet and supplements. This vitamin plays an important role in calcium phosphate homeostasis and bone turnover, and as a result, the musculoskeletal system. This vitamin is also effective in the immune system. Material and Methods:In this study we reviewed the related articles and books published in English between 2010 and 2023 in PubMed, Medline, and Google Scholar and searched the Scopus databases electronically using the keywords "vitamin D", "teeth", "oral manifestations", "Vitamin D deficiency" and "Dentistry". Conclusion: By reviewing related articles about the role of vitamin D in different structures of the body, including oral cavity, and the effects of its deficiency in the occurrence of diseases and the use of its supplements in the recovery of diseases, it seems  that this vitamin plays a significant role in the oral health and the immunity. There are conflicting results regarding the effect of vitamin D on external root resorption in orthodontics and Sjogren's syndrome. Hence, clinical trial studies are required for confirmation.   1413 oral patho Diagnostic challenges of Jaw Fibro-Osseous Lesions: (A Review) Tabatabaei Seyed Hosein Sabaghzadegan Farinaz Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences, Yazd Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences, Yazd 1 12 2023 20 4 249 262 26 02 2023 13 10 2023 Background & Objectives: Fibro-Osseous-Lesions (FOLs) in jaws have been considered as one of the most important diagnostic challenges. FOLs are benign lesions in which part of the normal jaws bone is replaced by mineralizing fibrotic connective tissue. Different types of FOLs have some differences in etiology, treatment and prognosis but they may show similar in radiographic and microscopic view. Furthermore, they may also have microscopic similarities with some low-grade malignant lesions of the jaw. Therefore, in this review, we have tried to bring this always challenging story to a good and practical conclusion by providing specific and practical indicators for more accurate diagnosis of these lesions by examining the most important related studies. Materials & Methods: Evaluated studies were in the range of 2011 to 2021. Our criteria for entering the study were associated researches with diagnostic challenges of FOLs and purposes of the study include: determining the connection among the clinical and pathologic FOLs, distinguishing various diagnostic challenges of FOLs from each other and malignant bone lesions. Conclusion: The results of this study declare that accurate and correct diagnosis of FOLs requires a connection between clinical, radiographic and histopathological data.
