Background and aim: Allografts are a group of binding materials with various applications in restoration of osseous tissues. These materials are in two types: DFDBAs and FDBAs which have been evaluated and different reports are available regarding their properties. So we decided to launch a study and compare 2 types of FDBA and DFDBA osseous powders manufactured by Hamanand Saz Baft Kish Company and their application in restoration of calvaria bone damages in rabbits. Methods and Materials: The research performed on randomized clinical trial on 12 white rabbits. It was made 4 full 8 millimeter defects in calvaria bones in all rabbits. Then in group 1 we used DFDBA and in second group we used FDBA and the other groups were the positive and negative control groups. Within the 2 consecutive months (2, 4, 6, and 8 weeks) we sacrificed 3 rabbits for histologic and Histomorphometric analysis. Data were analyzed using Friedman and Mann-Whitney. We utilized SPSS ver: 20 software. Results: There were no statistically significant differences between groups FDBA and DFDBA in the filling status of the defect, inflammation and amount of resorption. At the end of 6 weeks in both groups, Inflammation also decreased in both groups from week 6. Foreign body reaction and complete remodeling of bone was not observed in both groups during the study period. Conclusions: Both of FDBA and DFDBA groups are the same in the rate of bone formation, inflammation and foreign body reaction and absorption.

Background and AIM: The gradual color change of the tooth shade guide is due to the use of an autoclave is one of the clinical problems for correct color reproduction. The purpose of this research was study the effect of autoclave on dental shade guide. Materials and methods: This experimental experiment was experimental and done on 20 dental paints guide (vitaA3). Subsequently, they were divided into 2 groups color guide by randomly. First, all specimens were washed Before placing in the autoclave Distilled for 3 minutes and they were dry with a tissue and they went on to the autoclave, of course The first group is at 121 ° C for 40 minutes and the second group was kept at 134 ° C for 10 minutes. These specimens were placed in an autoclave with 180 cycles and3 times a day, 5 days a week (equivalent to 3 months). At each stage set the Spectrophotometer color Indicators (abl) and  E Guide the color of the teeth. Statistical analysis was performed in SPSS software and in the way of Mann-Whitney. Results: Mean in the group with a temperature of 121 degrees was 3. 79 ± 0. 63 and in the group with a temperature of 134 degrees, it was 3. 55 ± 1. 04 which are not significant. According to the statistical test, there is a difference (P <0. 3). About b and c index, difference were minor and no significant difference was observed in the case of other measured indicators, L, a, H in the two groups. (P<0. 2). The color change was more than 3. 3 for both method and not acceptable related to clinical subjects. (3. 55 and 3. 79) Conclusion: In this study, it was observed that sterilization process by autoclave, can lead to change the color properties of the classic VITA color guide.

Background and aim: Candidiasis is a common fungal disease in the mouth. An appropriate treatment for candidiasis is the use of antifungal drugs. Due to drug resistance and known side effects of drugs, the tendency to use medicinal herbs is increasing. Garlic is identified as a strong antibacterial. Therefore, in this study, the effect of aqueous garlic extract and nystatin on Candida albicans was investigated. Materials and Methods: An experimental study was carried out. For each control and case group, one standard strain and 10 clinical strains were studied. The standard strain of Candida albicans was obtained from the Iranian Research Institute of Industrial Research and clinical strains from different patients. Garlic was prepared from the north of the country and was extracted by soaking method. Control groups containing nystatin suspension of 10, 000 units / ml were prepared from Sigma, and finally, the diameter of the inhibition zone and MIC by Micro Broth Dialution method were studied. The results were analyzed by T test. Result: MIC of nystatin and the MIC and MBC of garlic show that Nystatin MIC was 3. 49 ± 4. 96 μ g / ml and micronutrient was 1. 42 ± 2. 22 mg / ml and nystatin variation coefficient was 28% and garlic 15% as well as MBC of garlic equal to 58 /. ± 59. 1 mg / ml with a coefficient of variation of 36%. In the meantime, mic is for standard samples of 78. 0 mg / ml and nystatin 0. 5 μ g / ml. The amount of nongrowth halo in nystatin was 29. 1 ± 1. 72 and in the garlic group was 20. 1 ± 1. 5, which was 9. 1% or 31% higher in the nystatin group and the T test showed that this difference was statistically significant. (p <0/000) and the inferiority halo for standard sample 22 and nystatin 32. Conclusion: The study showed that the aqueous extract of garlic was able to inhibit the growth of Candida albicans but its effect was less than nystatin.

Background and AIM: Microgap formation at implant-abutment connection is one of the complications leading to mechanical and biological failure and inflammation around implants. This study aimed to investigate the influence of GapSeal as a sealing material on the extent of microgap and microleakage at the internal hexagon implant platform. Materials and Methods: Sixteen implants with an internal-hexagon connection (Biohorizon, internal hexagon) were employed in this in-vitro experimental study. All implant-abutment sets were assigned to two groups and were molded in acrylic resins. GapSeal was injected into the implants in the experimental (test) group. Then, implant assemblies were tightened with the torque of 30 N/cm, and 1200, 000 loading cycles with the force of 100 N and the frequency of 1 Hz were applied. Every sample was immersed in a methylene blue dye to evaluate microleakage. Microgap was measured in six regions randomly using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The data were entered into SPSS 22 and were analyzed using t-test. Results: The mean± SD microgap was 0. 99± 0. 39 μ m and 3. 04± 0. 54 μ m in the test and control groups, respectively. It was higher in control group, significantly. (P<0. 0001) In addition, microleakage was observed in all of the specimens of the control group, while no microleakage was seen in the test group. A significant statistical difference was found between the groups regarding microgap and microleakage (P<0. 0001). Conclusion: Application of GapSeal® reduced the dimension of the microgap and decreased microleakage at the implant-abutment interface.

Background & Aim: Periodontal infections are among the most common oral and tooth diseases and recognized as the main cause of the tooth loss after decay. The purpose of this study was to identify and sequencing of the periodontal-causing bacteria and its relation with interleukin-6 gene polymorphism by Tetra-Arms-PCR method. Material and methods: In this case-control study, 100 samples (50 periodontal infections and 50 healthy people) were collected under the supervision of a dentist. After genomic DNA extraction using the sinaclon Company Kit, identification of bacterial strains was performed using 16S rRNA gene amplification. Also, after extraction of cellular DNA from blood samples taken, the polymorphism of the genome encoding IL-6 was performed using the Tetra-Arms-PCR method. The sequencing was carried out by the Sanger method and by Bioneer Company, and finally, the MEGA 7 software was scanned to determine the genetic affinity of the phylogeny tree strains. Results: In the present study, bacteria of Staphylococcus, Lactobacillus, Streptococcus, Acroombocator, Granulicatla Adiasens, Gordonia and Kocuria rhizophila were found in periodontal patients. Also, there was a significant relationship between G/G genotype in-174G/C in periodontal patients compared to control group. (p<0. 05) Conclusions: The correlation between Polymorphism-174G / C in IL-6 and chronic periodontal disease, suggested that, presence of this gene, might be a risk factor for chronic periodontal disease involvement and also, can be an indicator for susceptibility of the mentioned disease involvement.

Background and aim: The level of anxiety in 3-6 year old children when receiving dental care, is effective in compliance of the patients and the quality of the received care. The behavior and level of anxiety of children may be associated with their mothers’ psychological status. In this study, the relationship between the mothers’ emotional maturation and the anxiety and behavior of 3-6-year-old children during routine dental treatments was investigated. Material and methods: The current investigation was a cross section-descriptive study. Seventy patients aged 3-6 years old referring to pediatric dentistry ward of Tabriz dental school in 2015 were studied. In selection of the children, the age and lack of previous dental encounter was considered. The patients’ anxiety during dental treatment was assessed by evaluating the child’ s behavior by venham scale utilizing frankel index. Before initiation of dental treatment, questionnaires regarding emotional maturation and PTSD was filled by the mothers. At the end, the relationship between mothers’ emotional maturation and the child’ s behavior and anxiety was analyzed by Pearson correlation coefficient test with 0. 05 significance level under SPSS 16 software. Results: The current study revealed two main findings. Firstly, the mothers’ emotional maturity did not have a statistically significant relationship with child’ s behavior in dental environment. Also the mother’ s emotional maturation did not have a statistically significant relationship with child’ s anxiety in dental environment. Conclusions: The emotional maturation of mothers was generally at normal level and there does not seem to be a direct relationship between mothers’ level of emotional maturity and child’ s behavior and anxiety in the dental environment.
