The rationale of this study was to assess the results of training endodontic topostgraduates. This study was assumed to evaluate the procedural quality of root canalobturation and occurrence of ritual errors in the root canal treatment cases performed bypostgraduates in the department of Operative Dentistry. Study Design: Cross sectional caseseries study. Setting: Department Operative Dentistry, Liaquat University of Medical HealthScience, Jamshoro. Period: May 2014 to Apr 2016. Methodology: Total two hundreds eightyeight cases were evaluated, out of which 144 were prepared using Pro-taper universal (Dentsply)rotary system and 144 were prepared using conventional hand file system. Each group of teethwas evaluated by radiograph for the occurrence or lacking of procedural errors i-e overfill, underfill, instrument separation. Results: Among 288 cases, out of 144 conventionally treated teeth58 (49%) had procedural errors. Whereas out of 144 teeth treated with Pro-taper next rotarysystem, 61 (51%) had technical errors. Most of errors seen in both groups but farthest wereoverfill. Chi square test showed P value > 0.05 (0.416) which illustrate an irrelevant relationshipamong the systems applied & the incidence of errors. Conclusion: There was variation amongoverfill & under fill prevalence of practical errors in both systems; nonetheless, there was adisparity in the nature of error produced. It is accomplished that even though rotary systems arenot as simple to use as formerly alleged.

Objective: To investigate the implication of quality of obturation and coronal restoration on periapical tissue in failed endodontically treated teeth. Study Design and Setting: This cross-sectional research was performed in the Operative Department of BUMDC on 187 patients reporting with root canal failure from March 2019 to August 2019. Methodology: Patients of both genders aged between 20-60 years were considered for this study. Single and multirooted teeth indicated for repeated endodontic treatment due to under filled, overfilled obturation, voids in obturation, absence and presence of coronal restoration were included. One operator carried out clinical examination of the teeth and periapical radiograph was taken for each patient by using E-Speed film and evaluated by the same operator using an illuminated viewer box. SPSS 17 for windows software was used for data entering and chi- square test was applied for statistical calculation of the outcomes. Results: Total n=187 endodontic treated failed teeth were evaluated, out of which 52.9% were of females and 47.1% to males. The number of obturations with acceptable length were 81(43.3%), with adequate density were 107 (57.2%) and with consistent taper were 116(62%). Periapical lesion was observed in 118(63.1%) cases. Quality of obturation significantly affects the periapical health. Cross tabulation showed a significant association (p-value <0.000) between inadequate coronal restoration and changes in periapical area. Conclusion: The successful prognosis of the root canal treatment relies on the good quality of obturation and adequate coronal filling.

Introduction: Locomotion is a determinant of intrinsic capacity ofolder people and can be limited by dysfunction in locomotory organs,characterizing Locomotive Syndrome (LoS). Knowledge on locomotiveproblems and sarcopenia, and their interface with quality of life, in theoldest old in the literature is scarce.Objective: To evaluate the correlation between LoS and sarcopenia andtheir influence on quality of life in oldest old.Methods: A cross-sectional study of an observational, descriptive andanalytical epidemiological survey in independent older adults aged 80and over from São Paulo, Brazil and who participated in the third waveof the LOCOMOV Project, was carried out. Sociodemographic data,comorbidities, functioning in activities of daily living, physical functioning,quality of life, and presence of sarcopenia and LoS were assessed. Thestatistical analyses included the Test-for-Comparing-Two-Proportions,Pearson's Correlation Coefficient, the chi-Square test and Student´s t-test.Results: Thirty oldest old with a mean age of 89.1 years were evaluated.The prevalence of LoS was high (53.3%) and correlated significantly withchronic pain (p-value 0.024), worse performance on the SPPB and Gaitspeed (p-value <0.001). Sarcopenia was not correlated with LoS, but worsequality of life on the physical domain was significantly associated with LoS(p-value <0.001) regardless of the presence of sarcopenia.Conclusions: LoS was highly prevalent among the oldest old studied andnegatively impacted their quality of life, regardless of the presence ofsarcopenia.

Objectives: Treatment of asymptomatic necrotic teeth is a common type of occurrence in endodontic practice. Root canal treatment of these teeth sometimes results in pain and /or swelling of varying degree. These severe symptoms upset both the patient and dentist. This study was to compare the effect of prophylactic amoxicillin and placebo in endodontic flare-up in asymptomatic necrotic teeth requiring root canal treatment. This was evaluated by using flare-up index. The influence of age, sex, was compared between flare-up and non-flare-up groups. Using a standardized technique and the same materials eliminated the variability of operator. Study Design: Quasi experimental study. Setting: Department of Operative Dentistry, Lahore Medical and Dental College, Lahore. Period: From January 2018 to December 2018. Material & Methods: 102 patients with asymptomatic necrotic teeth with periapical radiolucency were selected from the Operative Dentistry Department of Lahore Medical and Dental College. Patients were divided into two groups experimental and control, by convenient sampling. One half of the patients were given prophylactic amoxicillin and other half was given placebo one hour before treatment. Results: Flare-up occurred in four of the experimental and seven of the control group patients. Statistical analysis revealed no significant differences between flare-up and non- flare- up patients for age and sex. The data outcome was of qualitative in nature i.e. pain and swelling, they were subjected to Chi-Square test of significance with P value of £0.05. The results demonstrated that 10.8% of the 102 patients had a flare-up. No side effects were observed in the patients who were prescribed amoxicillin. Conclusion: The occurrence of flare-up did not significantly influence by Prophylactic amoxicillin (P= .33).
