Abstract:
Background and Aime:
This research was launched in 2011 considering the bacterial contamination of surgery tools and unknown consequences due to this and lack of interventions to find out the answer for the question “How we can control bacterial contamination?
materials and Methods:
The study was performed action research method on single packed and surgery sets sterilized in Islamic Azad University on random basis.First, the washing method was changed using eight samples of surgery tools but there was no significant difference contamination of tools with debri or without debri after sterilization (half of each group were contaminated). then we reduced the autoclave loading. During each level we prepared some samples from hemostate pans and elevator periosets after completion of sterilization process and the cultures were transferred to microbiology faculty of Shahid Beheshti Medical university within one hour. In the levels that bacterial contamination was zero percent after microbe culture if the same finding was proved for three times, we would have been able to control contamination.
Resulte:
The study indicated that changing quality of washing may not be influential factor in contamination control but reducing the sets and single packs inside the 300 liter autoclave from 82 sets to 65 sets and 38 single packs and in 150 liter to 48 sets and 37 single packs, we can control contamination.
Conclusion:
It seems by said loading in the autoclave can control the bacterial contamination but since this is the first research experience, more research should be done.

Abstract: Background and Aim: Pain and dry socket are the most common problems following the removal of third molars. This severe and sudden pain usually occurs 3 days after tooth extraction and its prevalence is about 68.4%. The undelaying etiology is not known so far. The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of chlorhexidine gel (0.2%) in prevention of dry socket and pain following mandibular third molar surgery. Materials and Methods : This study was performed as a sequential split machted randomized double blind clinical trial. All subjects were 18-45 years of age and they were indicated to extract impacted lower third molars bilaterally with difficulty degree of 7-10 according to Pederson scale. The Patients were randomly assigned into case and control groups. 0.2% chlorhexidine gel was applied by gel foam in the sockets. The incidence of dry socket was measured by Blum scale and VAS scale was used to evaluate the pain level. The results were analysed by chi-square ,Mann-u-whiteney and McNemar Tests. Results : This study was performed on 80 patients (160 samples), with average age of 21.58±2.49. The incidence of dry socket in the control group was 32.5% and 11.2% in the experimental group (p<0.005). The pain on the third day was 3.38±1.14 in the control group and 2.32±1.15 in the case group which indicated a 31% elevation in the control group (p<0.01). Conclusion: 0.2% chlorhexidine gel can reduce the incidence of dry socket and pain after the extraction of the Impacted lower third molar teeth .

Abstract: Background and Aim: Topical NSAIDs have been shown to be effective in treatment of recurrent aphtous stomititis. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to compare the effect of Triamecinolone asetonide and diclofenac in patients with recurrent aphtous stomititis referred to Shahed dental school in 2011. Materials and Methods: In this clinical trial Study 25 patients were divided in two groups (12 persons in control-triamcilonone group and 13 persons in case- diclofenac group). All patients were asked to apply the drug 3 times daily and the effect of therapy was assessed in 0, 2 and 6 days after start of the therapy. Pain level, disease period and ulcer size were compared with in each group and also between case and control groups. Results: Patients in both groups were matched according to the personal and disease specifications. Pain level in day 6 in diclofenac group was 1/6±2/6 and in triamcinolone group was 1/5±2/8 (p<0/9). Ulcer size and treatment results were similar in both groups (p<0/7). Conclusion: It seems that both drugs have similar effects. However, considering the corticosteroid side effects, we recommend topical diclofenac therapy in patients with recurrent aphtous stomititis. Moreover, additional research is suggested to compare the effectiveness of the two drug.

Abstract: Background and Aim : Radiography is important as a paraclinical guide for choosing a proper surgical method and avoiding root fracture during surgery. The aim of the present study was to determine the accuracy of Dental panoramic radiography in assessment of third molars, in patients referred to oral radiology department of Islamic Azad university, dental branch ,Tehran In 2010. Materials and Methods: This diagnostic clinical trial study was performed on 80 third molars. Impaction status, number of roots, fusion and root curvature was assessed on radiographs before surgery by two observers, and compared with surgical findings after operation. Acceptable range for root curvature was considered ±10 degrees difference between radiographic and clinical observation. Statistical analysis was performed using ratio tests. Results: 133 roots were assessed. The root curvature was 154 ±21.9 degree and 81.2% were in acceptable range. Radiographic predictive value for diagnosing impaction, roots' fusion and having single root was 100%, 79% and 73.3% respectively and for tooth eruption, root separation and multiple roots was 98%, 86.6% and 98% respectively. Highest and lowest predictive values were found to be for the diagnosis of tooth impaction (100%) and single root tooth (73.3%) respectively. Conclusion: Our results showed that dental panoramic radiographs have relatively high diagnostic precision for assessment of third molar status and morphology

Abstract: Background and Aim: Due to ecologic alterations, white spot lesions in orthodontic patients have a high prevalence. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of white spot lesions in orthodontic patients and possible related factors. Materials and Methods The study was designed as a cross- sectional investigation. 200 patients were recruited and demographic data including gender, age, time of brushing, use of dental floss, parents’ educational level and use of fluoride were collected in a questionnaire. The labial surface of incisors, canines and premolars were next inspected for white spots and their frequency calculated. The possible association between the frequency of white spots and aforementioned factors was analyzed via the binary logistic regression test. Results : 90.5% of patients had at least one tooth with white spot. The highest prevalence of white spots was found in upper laterals, and lower first premolars. The duration of orthodontic treatment had the highest association with the development of white spot (P<0.0001). Frequency of brushing and application of fluoride significantly decrease the incidence of white spots (P=0.008), (P=0.003) Respectively. Type of brush and flossing and sex and age of patients showed no statistically significant contribution. Patients with high parents', educational level had more prevalence of white spot (P<0.006). Conclusion : The prevalence of white spots in patients undergoing fixed orthodontic treatment is high. Administration of fluoride products and increasing brushing sessions could possibly reduce the incidence of white spots

Abstract: Background and Aim: The thickness of healthy gingiva varies from subject to subject. This variation is not only influenced by genetic factors, but also by tooth size, shape, position and biological phenomena such as natural growth, geneder and age. The purpose of present study was to determine the thickness of facial gingiva among periodontally healthy patients in association with age, gender, tooth type and dental arch. Materials and Methods : In this descriptive study, 80 individuals (40 male and 40 female), 16-34 years of age with healthy periodontium were chosen. Gingival thickness was assessed in the maxillary and mandibular teeth by Transgingival probing at 2 sites per tooth: Midbuccal and Inter dental papilla. Data were analyzed with Paired-t-test and Anova Test. Results: The thickness of gingiva was found to be significantly higher in the younger age group (16-24) compared to the older age group (24-38) (p=0.005). Male subjects had significantly thicker gingiva compared to female subjects in MB area ( p= 0.007).The thickness of facial gingiva in the mandible (1.46± 0.38 ) was significantly thicker than maxilla (1.23± 0.27 ). The molars had the thickest and canines had the thinnest gingival thickness. (P=0.005). Conclusion: The results of the present study showed that the facial gingival thickness in the male is more than female, in the mandible more than maxilla and in the Molar region has the most and the canive region has the least thickness.
