JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF DENTISTRY & ORAL HEALTH   Infected Periapical Cemental Dysplasia of the Mandible a Surgical Approach: Case Report   Authored by Federico Lamus Abstract Osseous dysplasias are non-neoplastic benign fibrous-osseous lesions that result from a localized change of normal bone in which all the components of cancellous bone are replaced by fibrous and cementum like tissues containing different amounts of abnormal appearing bone. The solitary (monostotic) type which occurs typically in middle age; the mean age is 39 years and occurs nine times more often in females than males and almost three times more often in blacks than in whites, it’s also frequently seen in Asians. Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) has become a commonly used diagnostic tool in Dentistry when periapical surgery is contemplated to be able to gain knowledge about the relationship of the lesions and their neighboring anatomical features.

JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF DENTISTRY & ORAL HEALTH   Acupuncture Therapy in Orthodontics - A Review   Authored by Rohit Kulshrestha Abstract Acupuncture is a technique which has originated in China, in which different health issues are treated by inserting specially designed needles at various points on the body - acupuncture points. Acupuncture stimulates the nervous system and alters the perception and processing of pain signals and also releases natural painkillers. These painkillers (endorphins and serotonin) are present in the nervous system. These points serve as a tunnel to deeper circulating channels and stimulation of these points activates the body’s natural healing ability. The most common use of acupuncture is in the management of pain, for which a number of studies have shown it to be effective, particularly in the treatment of temporomandibular pain. It is intended that acupuncture may play a promising role in certain dental cond

JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF DENTISTRY & ORAL HEALTH   Finite Element Analysis and its Role in Orthodontics   Authored by Anand Marya Abstract Finite element analysis has found increasing use in the field of orthodontics due to its ability to deliver detailed yet precise information regarding stress on load application. It divides the object of study into a finite number of elements connected by a meshwork thereby making each element an individual object of study. Over the years, several studies have been done using the finite element method and there is a lot of scope for this experimental method to be used in future as well. Keywords: Finite element analysis; Orthodontics; Periodontal; Stress and strain; Solid mechanics Introduction The study of craniofacial orthodontics requires the precise understanding of the stress and strain induced by orthodontic forces in the pe

JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF DENTISTRY & ORAL HEALTH   Nanoparticles and their Applications in Orthodontics   Authored by Panchali Batra Abstract Nanoparticles (NPs) are insoluble particles smaller than 100 nm in size and the set of technologies that enables manipulation of these particles on an atomic, molecular and supra molecular scale is termed as ‘Nanotechnology’. Applications of nanotechnology are being ventured in various domains including health care and have also carved their way into various specialties of dentistry. This article presents an insight into various types of nanoparticles and their application in the field of Orthodontics. The various tests performed when using nanoparticles, to detect the physical and biological properties of the new material, are also summarized for easy referral. Keywords: Nanoparticles; Nanotechnology; Orthodontics Abbreviations: NPs: Nano Particles; MRI: Magnetic Resonance Imaging; USP: Ultrasonic Sp

JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF DENTISTRY & ORAL HEALTH   Success and Survival Rates of Teeth Restored with Cast Post and Core among National Guard Health Affairs Patients, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia   Authored by Abeer A Al Subait Abstract Purpose: To determine the success and survival rates of endodontically treated teeth restored with cast post and core among NGHA patients in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study was conducted in King Abdulaziz Dental Centre (KADC) in Riyadh during November 2015 – April 2016. Fifty seven patients with 140 intraradicular cast posts were included. Patients were evaluated both clinically and radiographically according to the FDI criteria for the evaluation of direct and indirect restorations by two independent examiners, one examiner for the radiographic and another for the clinical examination, after obtaining a well-written and explained informed consent form. Results: Of 140 endodonti
