The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a commercial probiotic yogurt consumption on oral halitosis.   Material and Methods: This clinical trial was conducted on 44 volunteers suffering from halitosis with oral cavity origin. The subjects were given 200 ml probiotic yogurt daily for a period of two weeks. One examiner evaluated subjects’ mouth odor at baseline and after two weeks using organoleptic assessment (5 point scale: 0= no, 1= brief, 2= medium, 3=severe, and 4= very severe) at 10 and 50 cm distances. Data were analyzed by SPSS software using Wilcoxon test (&alpha=0.05). Results: Baseline mean organoleptic scores (10 and 50 cm) were 2.63±1.12 and 1.95±1.23, which decreased to 1.45±1.10 and 0.95±0.93 at the end of study (P< 0.001). Conclusion: consumption of probiotic products could be considered as an effective strategy for improvement of halitosis with mouth origin. probiotics halitosis Organoleptic 2016 1 01 157 163 http://jrds.ir/article-1-684-en.pdf

The aim of this study was to compare the effect of Demineralized Bone Matrix and Absorbable Gelatin Sponge on preservation of the extraction socket bone level. Material & Methods: This double blind clinical trial study was accomplished on 20 cases (10 patients). The patients with the indication of two similar teeth extraction in a jaw who declared their written and conscious agreement for the research were included in this study. First, after similar teeth extraction in a jaw, Demineralized Bone Matrix material was embedded randomly into one extraction socket and Absorbable Gelatin Sponge on the other one. Then, the height of alveolar socket was measured by means of taking parallel periapical radiography and making a guiding stent. Four mounts later, another parallel periapical radiography was taken in the same manner as the previous one by using the fabricated guiding stent as guidance. Then the height of alveolar socket was measured. Differences inside and between the groups were analyzed statistically by using the “paired t-test” and “t-test” analyses respectively. Results: In both groups, reduction on the amount of alveolar ridge height observed. Bone level reduction in the Absorbable Gelatin Sponge and Demineralized Bone Matrix group was 3.03 ± 2.07 mm and 0.76 ± 0.47 mm, respectively, with statistically significant difference between them (P < 0.01). Conclusion: Bone level changes in Absorbable Gelatin Sponge group was 3 times more than Demineralized Bone Matrix group, which means that Demineralized Bone Matrix is more capable of preserving the bone height of the extraction socket than the Absorbable Gelatin Sponge.

The purpose of this study was to measure the pH changes of the external root surface of human teeth due to hydroxyle ion diffusion using different chelating agents. Method and Materials: In this in vitro study, 96 anterior maxillary teeth were prepared to a master apical size of #40 4%. Samples were randomly divided into 4 experimental groups of 12, group1: EDTA17% + NaOCl 1.3% group2: Citric acid 20% + NaOCl 1.3% group3: Noni + EDTA17% group4: NaOCl 1.3% + MTAD and 4 control groups. After removing the smear layer, Ca(OH)2 was placed in experimental samples. Root canal surface pH was measured for 30 days. Data were analyzed using t-test, one way ANOVA and Tuckey multiple comparisons. Results: Noni+ EDTA showed the highest average of PH among experimental (pH=8.02) and control (pH=7.61) groups (p&le<0.036), followed by MTAD+ NaOCl, EDTA+ NaOCl & Citric acid+ NaOCl, respectively. (pH=7.73, 7.64, 7.65) Conclusion: It was concluded that Noni +EDTA17% promoted greater hydoxyle ion transfusion and subsequent alkalization in the outer surface of the root due to better omission of smear layer.

D Sadri J Jahanbani M Fayazi mina_fayyazi@yahoo.com SH Rokhsari N Naraghian Abstract: Background and Aim: Faculty members are pillars of educational system .Their empowerment will positively affect their performance leading to higher levels of motivation and problem solving. The aim of this study was to determine the views of faculty members on effective strategies of empowerment and related factors in the Dental Branch of Islamic Azad University in 2014. Materials and Methods: A descriptive study on 115 students of dental branch of Tehran Islamic Azad University in 2014 was designed using a standard 5-scale Likert questionnaire and the parameters were  academic status, work experience, academic interest in the job, employment status and type of service. The questionnaire was consisted of 28 options in nine fields. Seven options with respect to incentives, 4 options in relation to facilitating communication specialist, 3 options with regard to participation in the learning process, 2 options in terms of specialization, 3 options regarding the  environmental factors of education and vocational training and two options for job enrichment, self-control and being up to date. The chi-square test was used for data analysis. Results: According to faculty members, the most important factor influencing their empowerment was availability of resources (education and research) with the highest point (14/4). Evaluation of faculty members by students and allocation of a strictly educational atmosphere had the lowest points of 2/84 and 2/38 respectively. Conclusion: It seems that improving the motivation, updating and participation of faculty members in educational decision-making processes are three main aspects of their empowerment.

Mast cells play an important role in tumor development and progression through angiogenesis. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of mast cell concentration and microvascular density with the grade and stage of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Materials and methods: This study is descriptive as the number of mast cells(MCD) and microvascular  density(MVD) were examined in 87 cases with OSCC. Mast cells and microvascular density  were stained by immunohistochemistry assay, All data obtained were statistically analyzed from descriptive statistics, ANOVA  and Spearman’s correlation coefficient respectively, using SPSS 16 software. Results: The mean mast cells density around the tumor was 60/07±15/18 and within tumor 51/84 ±10/63 . Average microvascular density around the tumor was 46/79±9/61 and within tumor 41/45 ± 7/62. The correlation between the mast cell and microvascular density has a correlation r = 0/77. The mast cells and microvascular density was positively related to Grade and Stage and predictive of cervical lymph node metastasis (P < 0.05). Conclusions: Mast cell concentration and microvascular density may be used as a factor for detecting grade of the tumor and metastasis to cervical lymphatic nodes.
