Abstract: اجريت هده الدراسة المختبرية لتقيم قدرة ختم لثلاث مواد استعملت ( بتقنة حشوة ثلث القمي لقناة الجذر ) باستعمال اختبار قوة الربط الدفع الى الخارج ودراسة التسرب القمي.ستين جذر حلقي الاسنان العلوية ذو قناة مستقيمة ذات فتحة قمية مكتملة التكوين مختارة بعناية وفق | This study was conducted to evaluate the sealing ability of three materials used as apical third filling by using push - out bond strength test and apical microleakage study.Sixty straight palatal roots of freshly extracted maxillary first molars were selected. All teeth had mature apices, selected carefully according to specific criteria. The roots were instrumented using crown down technique with rotary Protaper universal system, instrumentation were done with 5ml of 2.5% sodium hypochlorite used as irrigation between files, 17% buffered solution of EDTA was used as final irrigant followed by 2.5% sodium hypochlorite then 10ml distilled water to remove any remnant of irrigant. Roots were randomly divided into three groups according to the filling materials used ( twenty roots for each group) : Group (1) : MTA Plus ( 4mm thickness) using as apical third filling. Group (2) : Biodentine (4mm thickness) using as apical third filling.Group (3) : Bioceramic root repair material (4mm thickness) using as apical third filling.Easy and Quick (E&Q) obturation system were used to complete obturation of roots. After incubation period at 37 °C for three days. Ten roots from each group were used for push - out test, after root were embedded in clear acrylic resin, sectioned at apical level in 2mm and 4mm from root apex to provide slice 2mm in thickness. The bond strength was measured using computerized universal testing machine, each section fixed in the machine so that the load applied from apical to coronal direction at 0.5mm/min speed and the computer drew curve to show the higher bond force before dislodgment of the filling material. These force were divided by surface area to obtain the bond strength in MPa.After debonding each sample was examined under Stereomicroscope and the type of failure mode was recorded. The result showed non significant different between Biodentine group and MTA Plus group. Biodentine group showed a very high significant difference with Bioceramic material group. Also high significant difference between MTA Plus group and Bioceramic material group. The Biodentine group showed highest mean of bond strength in comparison to other test group.Ten roots remain from each group used for apical microleakage study. The roots submerged in 2% methylene blue for three days. The roots were cleared and the degree of linear dye penetration was measured in millimeter by stereomicroscope under 40 X magnification with calibrated scale ocular grid. The result showed the Biodentine group lowest mean of microleakage than other group while Bioceramic material group showed high mean of microleakage than other groups. There are no significant difference among groups. There is positive correlation between push - out bond strength and an apical dye penetration in microleakage for each group of material.

Abstract: Esthetic dentistry as a concept and adhesive materials development as a functional element make the new dawn of dentistry especially with the continuous development of adhesive techniques. This study is to evaluate the failure patterns of porcelain laminate veneers used to esthetically restore maxillary first premolar by bonding them to enamel and dentin with two different techniques.Forty eight extracted human maxillary first premolar were used for this study. Teeth were divided randomly into one control group and three experimental groups of twelve teeth eachGroup (A) were prepared in enamel (0.5 mm) depth of preparation. Group (B) were prepared in dentin (1 mm) depth of preparation and their veneers were bonded by DDS technique. Group (C) were prepared in dentin (1 mm) depth of preparation and their veneers were bonded by IDS technique. Standard preparation for each tooth in the experimental groups with ceramic veneer set burs especially designed for laminate veneer preparation. All the experimental groups were restored with the same type of veneer which was lithium disilicate ceramic CAD/CAM blocks (IPS e. max CAD, ivoclar vivadent) and were milled by CAD/CAM technology (CEREC inLab 4.02 milling system, Sirona).For all the experimental groups, Choice™2 veneer cement (Bisco, USA) was used for the luting of veneers. After cementation, teeth were stored in distilled water in 37°C for one week. The specimens were loaded to failure using instron universal testing machine. Specimens in experimental groups were examined by stereomicroscope at magnification of 20x to evaluate the mode of failure.Results were statistically analyzed and showed that the highest mean of failure load was recorded for the control group (548.1 N ± 93.2), for group (A) the mean of failure load was (393.4 N ± 84.2), and for Group (B) had the mean of failureAbstract IIIload was (237.8 N ± 91.6), and for group (C) the mean of failure load was (318 N ± 82.2).The one way ANOVA test was carried out and showed that there is a statistically high significant difference among the groups.Then the LSD test have shown that there is a statistically high significant difference between the control group and all three of the experimental groups, and there was a statistical high significant difference between group (A) and group (B), while group (C) have shown that there is a statistical significant difference with groups (A) and (B).The mode of failure varied from only debonding in groups (B and C) to deboning and fracture in group A.In conclusion, this study found that although enamel is still the most favorable tooth substrate for indirect adhesive restorations, the development of bonding techniques like IDS made dentin as acceptable tooth substrate for indirect adhesive restorations when it's unavoidable.

Abstract: Background : Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder related to the loss or absence of dopaminergic neurons in the brain. The deficits caused by PD result in slowness of movement, tremor, rigidity, and dysfunction of behavior and these symptoms negatively influence the patient’s capability to carry out the daily oral hygiene manoeuvres.Aims of study : This study aims at using saliva as a biological fluid for assessment in detecting the biomarkers of Parkinson's disease and to assess the impact of this disease on the oral health of patients.Materials and methods : A total number of fourty participants were involved in the study; twenty subjects who appeared healthy (Group I) and twenty Parkinson's patients (Group II). Patients who are eligible for this study were cases of Parkinson's disease treated with anti - Parkinson's medications, both genders and their ages ranged from 40 - 75 years. Specific information related to the demographic characteristics and illness is obtained from each patient. The Brain Bank Diagnostic Criteria for Parkinson’s disease established by United Kingdom Parkinson's Disease Society was used. Each patient was subjected to oral examination during which DMF index was scored, oral health impact Profile OHIP - 14 was used and from each participant the whole unstimulated saliva was collected for biochemical analysis including total salivary protein, direct determination of saliva proteins and determination of ? - synuclein. Results : many oral and clinical signs and symptoms elsewhere in the body were reported in the patient with Parkinson's disease while the clinical features of Parkinson's disease observed in all patients despite of their treatment. Static tremor observed in 100%, rigidity in 70%, disturbances in the autonomic nervous system reflected on the cardiovascular, gastrointestinal and urinary tracts, orthostatic dizziness observed in 75%, dry mouth in 65% difficulties in swallowing in 40% and constipation in 70%. Teeth examination revealed that Parkinson's patients have a non - significant high means of decay and missing teeth compared with healthy subjects. The total saliva protein in Parkinson's patients is significantly higher than the corresponding value of healthy subjects. The extinction coefficient of uncontaminated protein in Parkinson's patients is significantly less than the corresponding values of healthy subjects and salivary ? - synuclein level is significantly less in Parkinson's patients than healthy subjects.Conclusions : Salivary ? - synuclein may serves as a biomarker for Parkinson's disease. Specific protein with extinction coefficient 27.5 M.Cm - 1 is secreted in saliva of Parkinson's patients. The characteristic saliva protein produced in patients with Parkinson's disease is deficient in tyrosine level and Dental care is required for both groups (Parkinson's patients and healthy subjects).

Abstract: اساس البحث : مرض بهجت هو اضطراب جهازي حيث ان اسبابه المرضيه ليست محدده جيده.المظاهر الاكثر شيوعا هي الاغشيه المخاطيه الجلديه ولكن يمكن ان يشمل العين, انظمة القلب,الاوعيه الدمويه والجهاز العصبي. هناك العديد من طرائق المعالجه الموضعيه والجهازيه. تمت محاول | Background : Behcet’s disease is a systemic disorder where its etiopathogenesis is not well determined. The commonest manifestations are muccocutaneous but can involve eye, cardiovascular and neurological systems. There are many modalities of therapy topical and systemic.Isotretinion has been tried as an effective therapy of muccocutaneous manifestations. In present work was to try a new retinoid like acitretin which has longer half life than isotretinoin.Aims of the study : To evaluate the effectiveness of oral acitretin versus oral zinc gluconate in the treatment and prophylaxis of Behcet’s disease as a new therapeutic model.Materials and methods : This cross over controlled therapeutic study that conducted in the Department of Dermatology - Baghdad Teaching Hospital the period from August 2013 - May 2014.Twenty patients with fulfilled criteria of Behcets’s disease was included in this work. History and full examination were done for all patients regarding all demo - garaphic points related to the disease. They were given acitretin 25 mg orally once daily for three months to be seen on the day fourteenth firstly and then monthly to be assessed depending on the clinical manifestation index for Behcets disease. After three months, acitretin was stopped and patients were given zinc gluconate 25 mg twice daily for another three months. Results : Twenty patients were treated 12 males (60%), and 8 females (40%), with male to female ratio 1.5 : 1. All these patients completed the study and their ages ranged between 20 - 59 years with mean± SD (37.3±12.3). Pathergy both ordinary and oral were also minimized by this therapy while C - reactive protein was not much effective by this therapy. Zinc gluconate also had the same therapeutic action against these manifestations. Clinical manifestations index before treatment ranged between 1 and 11 with mean ± SD of 5.65±1.98.After acitretin therapy the mean of CMI started to decline to reach 2.65 ±2.03 in first month of the therapy with (p=0.00001) which was statistically high significant and continued high significant till the end of the third month with (p - value > 0.000001). After cessation of acitretin and zinc gluconate started the mean continued to decrease to reach 2.05±2.52 at the end of the first month with (p=<0.000001) which was statistically high significant then; started to increase to reach 3.3 ±2.31 at the end of six month of the therapy but statistically remained high significant (p - value=0.0007). Both acitretin and zinc gluconate have statistically significant effect in reducing severity and frequency of oral ulcers, genital ulcers, skin and rheumatologic manifestations. Conclusions : oral acitretin was found to be an effective therapy in addition to its prophylactic action in treatment of muccocutaneous manifestations of Behcet,s disease. Also zinc gluconate had effective therapeutic action against these features of Behcet’s disease.

Abstract: الحمل هو حالة فسيولوجية تجلب مجموعة واسعة من التغييرات في حياة المراة، بما في ذلك التعرض لامراض اللثة، ربما بسبب التغيرات الهرمونية المرتبطة مع الحمل. قد تؤثر الهرمونات الجنسية على اغشية الفم واللثة وربما هذا يؤدي الى العديد من الامراض اللثوية. ان هرمونا | Pregnancy is a physiological state that brings a wide range of changes in a woman’s life, including a susceptibility to gingival disease, probably due to hormonal changes associated with pregnancy. These female sex hormones may modify the oral mucosa and may lead to various degrees of gingival inflammation. The hormonal changes occurring during pregnancy may be associated with pregnancy gingivitis and gingival bleeding. Sex hormones are specific regulatory molecules have long been considered to play an influential role on periodontal tissues especially gingiva, bone turnover rate, wound healing and periodontal disease progression. Aims of the study1. Assessment of oral hygiene level and dental status in both second and third trimester pregnant women and compares results.2. Assessment salivary hormonal levels of endogenous female sex steroids in both second and third trimester pregnant women and compares results.3. Comparison of oral health status and endogenous female sex steroids salivary hormonal levels between gingivitis and non - gingivitis subgroups of both second and third trimester pregnant women groups.4. Find out the association between the gingival health status and salivary hormonal levels of endogenous female sex steroids (Estradiol and progesterone).Materials and methods This study was carried out on seventy - eight pregnant women who were attended for routine and regular follow up visits in obstetrics and gynecology department at Al - Yarmouk Teaching Hospital, from February 2013 to July 2013. This study was approved by the scientific committee in the department of oral medicine college of dentistry Al - Mustansiriya University. They were divided according to gestational age in to second trimester group and third trimester group. Fifty pregnant women (age range 18 - 38 years) and at gestational age was ranged between (20 - 27 weeks) were recruited as 2nd trimester group and Twenty - eight pregnant women (age range 18 - 39 years) at gestational age ranged between (28 - 33 weeks) were recruited as 3rd trimester group and according to Loe and Silness gingival index these two groups subdivided into gingivitis and non - gingivitis groups. Oral clinical examination including an assessment of gingival inflammation (Loe and Silness Gingival Index), Plaque amount (Silness and Loe Plaque Index), dental status (Decayed Missing Filling Teeth), and salivary flow rate (SFR) had also been done. Samples of whole unstimulated (resting) saliva were collected from all participants then investigated for sex steroids salivary hormonal levels of Estradiol, Progesterone. Results and discussion Oral health measurements including : GI, PLI, SFR and DMFT showed no significant difference between 2nd trimester and 3rd trimester groups. Sex steroids salivary hormonal levels of Progesterone showed a significant difference with higher mean value in 3rd trimester pregnant women than 2nd trimester pregnant women while sex steroids salivary hormonal levels of Estradiol showed no significant difference between two groups. Comparisons between gingivitis and non - gingivitis subgroups of 2nd trimester pregnant women group showed that there was highly significant difference in SFR with higher mean value in non - gingivitis group, and there was highly significant difference in PLI with higher mean value in gingivitis group, DMFT showed non - significant difference between the subgroups and (Estradiol and progesterone) salivary hormonal levels showed highly significant difference with higher mean values in gingivitis group. Comparisons between gingivitis and non - gingivitis subgroups of 3rd trimester pregnant women group showed that there was a non - significant difference in SFR, DMFT and a highly significant difference in PLI with higher mean value in gingivitis group, while progesterone salivary hormonal levels showed non - significant difference and Estradiol salivary hormonal levels showed a highly significant difference with higher mean value in gingivitis group. Comparison of GI between gingivitis groups of both 2nd and 3rd trimester pregnant women showed that there was a significant difference with higher mean value in 3rd trimester. Estradiol and progesterone salivary hormonal levels were non - significantly correlated with PLI and GI for gingivitis and non - gingivitis group of 2nd trimester pregnant women. Progesterone salivary hormonal level was non - significantly correlated with PLI and GI for gingivitis and non - gingivitis group of 3rd trimester pregnant women while Estradiol salivary hormonal level was non - significantly correlated with PLI and GI for non - gingivitis group and significantly correlated with PLI and GI for gingivitis group. GI and PLI for gingivitis groups of both 2nd and 3rd trimester revealed that there was a highly significant correlation.Conclusions Female Sex steroids hormones (Estradiol and Progesterone) salivary hormonal levels significantly increase from the second to the third trimester especially Estradiol and Play an important role in influencing gingival inflammation during pregnancy. These hormones are neither necessary nor sufficient to produce gingival changes by themselves. However, they may alter periodontal tissue responses to microbial plaque and thus indirectly contribute to gingivitis. Dental status in pregnant women is not significantly different between 2nd and 3rd trimester pregnant women groups. Women should be offered training in good oral hygiene habits, and community awareness programs should be conducted to increase their awareness of the crucial importance of such habits especially during pregnancy

The platal roots were instrumented with Hyflex CM rotary files to the size of 40/0.06.The instrumented samples were divided into three groups of ten samples each, the first group were obturated with GuttaFlow 2, the second group were obturated with Thermafil and the third group were obturated with GuttaCore obturating materials.After an incubation period of 7 days, each sample were sectioned into three sections of 2 mm thickness (apical, middle, coronal), each slice then introduced to the push out testing using a universal testing machine at a cross head speed of 0.5 mm/min. The result of this study showed Push - out bond strengths were significantly higher when canals were filled with GuttaCore than those filled with Thermafil and GuttaFlow 2. And Thermafil showed a higher significant difference than the GuttaFlow 2. It also showed that the bond strength values decreased from the coronal to the apical direction.In conclusion, the thermoplasticized gutta - percha appears to achieve higher push out bond strength values than the cold flowable gutta - percha. With GuttaCore showed higher push out bond values than Thermafil.

Abstract: خلفية البحث : اضطرابات المفصل الفكي الصدغي تشير الى مصطلح مركب يحتوي على عدة حالات تتضمن المفصل الصدغي ,التركيبات المحيطة او كلاهما , تظهر على شكل الم في منطقة المفصل والعضلات المرتبطة,وتحدد بالقدرة على الحركة الطبيعية مثل المضغ, الكلام والبلع. مرض التهاب | Tempromandibular joint disorders is a collective term embracing a number of conditions affecting the TMJ, the surrounding structures or both,manifested by pain in the area of joint and associated muscles, and limitation in the ability to make normal movement like mastication,speech and swallowing. Osteoarthritis is a group of mechanical abnormalities involving degradation of joints, including articular cartilage and subchondral bone. Symptoms may include joint pain, tenderness, stiffness, locking, and sometimes an effusion. A variety of causes—hereditary, developmental, metabolic, and mechanical deficits may initiate processes leading to loss of cartilage. When bone surfaces become less well protected by cartilage, bone may be exposed and damaged. As a result of decreased movement secondary to pain, regional muscles may undergo atrophy, and ligaments may become more lax.Objective of the study : • To determine the extent of tempromandibular joint involvement in patients with osteoarthritis.• To evaluate the correlation between clinical and radiographical findings. • To evaluate the accuracy of sonography in detection of osteoarthritic changes compared to Computed tomography.Materials and method : A comparative study had been done using thirty six symptomatic patients(24 female and 12 male) above 40 years diagnosed as osteoarthritis by specialist rheumatologist in Alkarkh general hospital, with clinical finding related to osteoarthritis like pain,tenderness,crepitation, clicking and limited mouth opening. these patients were exposed to computed tomography(CT) scan (Philips - Brilliance 64) in Al - Karkh general hospital and then the results were compared with sonographic findings (Philips 12.5 MHz transducer) to see the disc displacement, effusion, erosion, flattening, osteolytic and osteophytic lesions in the condylar head.The period of the study started from (october - 2013 to june - 2014).Results : The result of the study showed that the mean age of osteoarthritic patients was (49.69) years, and female percentage (66.7%) and male(33.3%). Chief complaine showed more predilection in the left side (28%) and bilateral showed(56%).Clinically : limitation in mouth opening (50%),crepitation(36.11%), clicking (27.7%), and tenderness (20.8%). Radiographically Computed tomography(CT) scan showed disc displacement (50%), joint effusion (37.5%), flattening(36.11%), osteophyte(18,05%), and erosion(11.1%). There was significant correlation between clicking and joint effusion in computed tomography(CT),while tenderness showed significant correlation with osteophyte and joint effusion in sonography. Other correlations were non significant correlation between clinical and radiological changes. Association between computed tomography(CT) and sonography showed fair agreement in osteophyte detection,fair agreement in joint effusion,moderate agreement in detection of joint erosion,moderate agreement in reduction of space and anterior disc displacement and also moderate agreement in condylar head flattening. Conclusions : Osteoarthritis in tempromandibular joint may be unilateral or bilateral. About 50% of Patients with osteoarthritis have limitation in mouth opening. Clinical findings play a major role in diagnosis of osteoarthritis. The tempromandibular joint changes in osteoarthritis were the results of degenerative processes, in contrast to rheumatoid arthritis were the changes as a result of the disease. Sonography was more likely to be sensitive rather than specific in detection of osteoarthritic changes

Abstract: Postoperative pain after endodontic procedures is an undesirable occurrence for both patients and clinicians. Certain factors may predispose to the development of postoperative pain. Knowledge of the causes and mechanisms behind interappointment pain in endodontics is of utmost importance for the clinician to properly prevent or manage this undesirable condition. The causative factors of interappointment pain encompass mechanical, chemical, and microbial injuries to the pulp or periradicular tissues, which are induced or exacerbated during root canal treatment. Ninety patients were recruited and included in this study out of one hundred and twenty patients, those patients requiring endodontic treatment on their permanent upper or lower molar teeth with asymptomatic irreversible pulpitis preoperatively, access opening and instrumentation was performed at the same visit.Patients ranged in age from 19 to 50 years old, and all were in good health, as determined from a written health history and oral interview.The patients were assigned randomly into three groups of 30 patients each : ? First group (n=30) : Teeth were instrumented using Universal ProTaper System (Full Rotary technique).? Second group (n=30) : Teeth were instrumented using ProTaper Next System (Full Rotary technique).? Third group (n=30) : Teeth were instrumented using WaveOne System (Reciprocating technique).Pain assessment carried out at day 1, 2, 3 & 7 using Verbal Rating Scale (4 - Point Scale). Patients recorded the incidence and severity of pain experienced.Patients were called at 24, 48 and 72 hours to obtain their reports for the first three days. Seven days after treatment their records were reviewed and percussion test was performed. Result showed that all groups induced Post - operative Pain, the difference is some systems cause more Post - Operative pain than other do : group 3 (WaveOne group) showed higher incidence and severity of PostoperativePain, followed by group 1 (Universal ProTaper group) that has shown less incidence and severity of Post - operative Pain than group 3 (WaveOne group), last group which it was group 2 (ProTaper Next group) has shown the lowest incidence and severity of Post - operative Pain. The data obtained were analyzed statistically using Chi Square test, total score for Verbal Rating Scale at day 1, 2, 3, and 7 showed that there was a highly significant differences between ProTaper Next group and other twogroups (P ? 0.001), and non - significant differences between ProTaper group and WaveOne group (P ? 0.05).

Abstract: المقدمة : الشاي الاخضرهو واحد من المشروبات العلاجية القديمة والشعبية المستهلكة في جميع انحاء العالم، وهو مشتق من ورقة للنبات "كاميليا سينينسيس", يمكن ان يحضر كمشروب، والذي يمكن ان يكون له العديد من الاثار الصحية الشاملة او "مستخلص" يمكن الحصول عليه من الاو | Background : Green Tea is one of the most ancient and popular therapeutic beverages consumed around the world, it is made from the leaf of the plant “Camellia sinensis”. It can be prepared as a drink, which can have many systemic health effects or an “extract” which can be made from the leaves to be used as medicine. Green tea is reported to contain thousands of bioactive ingredients including catechins, catechins found in the tea have shown promise for having antimicrobial effects.Aim of study : to test the effect of green tea extracts on Porphyromonas gingivalis and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans in comparison to 0.2% chlorohexidine gluconate and distilled water in vitro.Materials and Methods : plaque samples were collected from 20 patients with no signs of any systemic disease suffering from chronic periodontitis with probing pocket depth of at least 6 mm, Porphyromonas gingivalis and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans were isolated and diagnosed according to morphological characteristic and biochemical test. Green tea leaves were extracted by using water and alcohol. This study involved two experiments in vitro concerning the effects of green tea extracts on these bacteria in addition to analysis of the extracts to determine the concentrations of the catechins in each extract. The first experiments involved testing the sensitivity of A.a and P.g to different concentrations of the extracts in addition to chlorhexidine gluconate 0.2% and distilled water using agar well diffusion method, the second experiment involved determination of the minimum inhibitory concentration of the extracts that inhibits the bacterial growth and then determination of the minimum bactericidal concentration of the extract that was requires to kill the bacteria. The present study also involved laboratory analysis of green tea extracts using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).Results : Both green tea extracts were effective in inhibition of Porphyromonas gingivalis and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans using agar well diffusion method, 90% and 100% concentrations of alcoholic extract showed larger inhibition zones than chlorhexidine gluconate 0.2% with statistically significant difference, CHX showed higher inhibition zones than all aqueous extract concentrations.The MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) of alcoholic green tea extract that inhibit Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans growth was 60% and it was the same for Porphyromonous gingivalis.The MIC of aqueous green tea extract that inhibits Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans growth was 70% and MIC of aqueous green tea extract extract that inhibits Porphyromonous gingivalis was 80%.The MBC (minimum bactericidal concentration) of alcoholic green tea extract that kills Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans was 80%, the MBC of alcoholic green tea extract that kills Porphyromonous gingivalis was 90%, the MBC of aqueous green tea extract that kills Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans growth was 90%, which was also the same for Porphyromonous gingivalis.HPLC analysis of aqueous and alcoholic green tea extracts that were used in this study revealed that alcoholic extract contained higher concentration of EGCG while aqueous extract had higher content of catechin and epicatechin.Conclusion : green tea extracts were effective against Porphyromonas gingivalis and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, alcoholic green tea extract showed inhibition ability more than the aqueous green tea extract and more than chlorhexidine gluconate and it showed bactericidal activity at 80%, 90% and 100% concentrations.

Abstract: Orthodontic mini - implants are increasingly used in orthodontics and the bone density is a very important factor in stabilization and success of mini - implant.The aim of this study was to observe the relationship among maximum bite force; body mass index; face width, height; masseter muscle length, width and thickness; and bone density in an attempt to predict bone density from these variables to eliminate the need for CT scan which have a hazard on patient.Computed tomographic images were obtained for 70 patients (24 males and 46 females) with age range 18 - 30 years. The cortical and cancellous bone density was measured between maxillary and mandibular 2nd premolar and 1st molar at two levels from the alveolar crest (3 and 6 mm). Face height and width and masseter muscle length, width and thickness were measured from CT. Clinically; Maximum bite force was measured on first molar region unilaterally by a digital device. The sample was divided into two groups according to the body mass index into; normal and overweight.The results that were obtained showed that there were no significant differences in bone density or maximum bite force in both genders. Only the cortical bone density in maxilla in overweight group tended to be higher than normal body mass index group. The face width and height correlated significantly negatively with or maximum bite force which correlated significantly positively with cortical bone density and masseter muscle width.It was concluded that a prediction of cortical bone density of preselected areas can be made from maximum bite force, body mass index and inter - zygomatic width

Abstract: Dental implant surface technologies have been evolving rapidly to enhance a more rapid bone formation on their surface and hold a potential to increase the predictability of expedited implant therapy.Numerous surface modification approaches have been developed for all classes of dental implants to modulate biological responses and improve the osseointegration and primary stability. Hence, Implant threads should be designed to maximize the delivery of optimal favorable stresses while minimizing the amount of extreme adverse stresses to the bone implant interface. In addition, using of biomaterial coating of implant surface for the enhancement of bone formation has been achieved through the modulation of osteoblasts adhesion and spreading that induced better stability and more implant surface contact area.The aims of the study are : 1. Evaluation of titanium implant osseointegration by the modification of thread design and I or coating its surface by Flaxseed.2. Evaluate the new surface modification of titanium implant, histologically, mechanically and radiographically.Materials and methods : One hundred and twenty eight commercially pure titanium (CpTi) screws were implanted in rabbit tibiae. Implants were divided as follows : 1. Dual - threaded group (32 implants). 2. Single - threaded coated with grinded flaxseed group (32 implants).3. Single - threaded with central groove (32 implants).4. Single - threaded (control) group (32 implants).Histological, mechanical and radiographical analysis were performed for all implants after each healing periods (2,4,6 and 8) weeks.Results : 1. Dual - threaded implant illustrated the highest mean value in thread width and removal torque, and it showed mature bone at 8 weeks.2. Grooved implant illustrated close opposing threads. 3. Coated implant illustrated highest mean value in osteoblast cell count and showed a proliferating cartilage zone that later on degenerated and replaced by bone.Conclusion : The present results conclude that each modified implants shows a different benefits whether a modification of the implant surface mechanically (dual or grooved thread) or by coating the implants with Flaxseed.

Abstract: Fibrous Dysplasia & Ossifying Fibroma of the jawsare maxillofacial fibroosseous lesions sharing anoverlapping clinicopathological characteristics. This can be diagnostically challenging for pathologists& surgeons. It is important to make the distinction because of differences in their clinical behavior, modes of treatment and prognosis.Osteocalcin is an immunohistochemicalmarker; secreted by osteoblasts and its high serum levelsare correlated with increased bone mineraldensity. It is therefore, used as biomarker for boneformation process and also has a role in regulationof osteoblast function.Transforming growth factor beta - 1 is a multifunctional regulator of cell growth which will either stimulate or inhibit proliferation of mesenchymal cells depending on the presence of other growth factors. It is secreted by osteoblasts and is very abundant in bone matrix. Bone morphogenetic protein - 7is a member of transforming growth factor - b superfamily; it is widely expressed during embryonic growth, and is an essential morphogen in renal, skeletal, and eye development.Aims of the study : This study aimedto evaluate and compare the Immunohistochemical expression ofosteocalcin, transforming growth factor beta - 1 andbone morphogenetic protein - 7in the pathogenesis of Fibrous dysplasia and Ossifying fibroma of the jaw bones,correlate the expression of the aforementioned markers in these lesions.Analyze theimmunohistochemical expression ofosteocalcin, Transforming growth factor beta - 1 & bone morphogenetic protein - 7 inFibrous dysplasia & Ossifying fibroma, in order to assess its potential role in differentiation between these two disease entities.Materials&Methods : A total of 30 retrospective formalin - fixed, paraffin - embedded tissue blocks were included in this study, 15 were diagnosed asFibrous dysplasia of the jaws and 15 were ofOssifying fibroma of the jaws. Animmunohistochemicalstaining method using ofosteocalcin,transforming growthfactor beta - 1 andbone morphogenetic protein - 7 monoclonal antibodies were performed.Results : The results revealed that the majority of cases (73.33%) were females for each Fibrous dysplasia &Ossifying fibroma. the age range was (8 - 35)years for Fibrous dysplasia and (7 - 50)years forOssifying fibroma. For Fibrous dysplasia most cases presented in maxilla (66.76%) while for Ossifying fibroma most of the cases presented in mandible (73.33), with more predominant Fibrous dysplasia cases in molar area (60%) and more presented Ossifying fibroma cases in premolar & molar area (33.33%). Statistically significant difference was found between Fibrous dysplasia&Ossifying fibroma cases regarding jaws & site distribution (P=0.02&0.04) respectively.Osteocalcin positive immunohistochemicalexpression was found in fibroblast - like cells in 4 cases(26.66%) of Fibrous dysplasia and in 7 cases (46.67%) of Ossifying fibroma, according to Chi - square test the result showed statistically significant difference regarding osteocalcin expression in Fibrous dysplasia &Ossifying fibroma (P=0.04). Transforming growth factor beta - 1 was positivelyexpressed in 8cases (53.3%) of Fibrous dysplasiaand 10 cases (66.67%) of Ossifying fibroma. Bone morphogenetic protein - 7showed positive expression in 2 cases (13.3%) of Fibrous dysplasia and 4 cases (26.7%) ofossifying fibroma.Statistically non - significant difference regarding the immunohistochemicalexpression of transforming growth factor beta - 1 and bone morphogenetic protein - 7in Fibrous dysplasia &Ossifying fibroma. Moreover significant correlation was found regardingtransforming growth factor beta - 1 expression in response to bone morphogenetic protein - 7in Fibrous dysplasia (P=0.03)and osteocalcin expression in response totransforming growth factor beta - 1 in Ossifying fibroma (P=0.01).Conclusions : Transforming growth factor beta - 1 expressin the majority of Fibrous dysplasia &Ossifying fibroma cases indicate its important role in the process of osteogenesis. The significant correlation seen regarding the expression of some of the studied markers with each other suggest their cooperative role in the pathogenesis of Fibrous dysplasia &Ossifying fibroma

Abstract: Worldwide, obesity trends are causing serious public health concerns and significantly increases the risk of morbidity and mortality. It has an effect on the person`s general health including the oral health. Aims of the study : This study was designed to investigate the oral health status among a group of obese boys in relation to salivary inflammatory biomarkers (interleukin - 6 and Creactive protein) and selected salivary elements.Materials and methods : The study group consists of forty obese boy of an age 12 year, and forty normal weighted boy of the same age as a control group. Assessment of nutritional status was done by using Body Mass Index specific for age and gender. Dental caries severity was recorded by using the index of Muhlemann (1976). Plaque index of Silness and Loe (1964) was used for plaque assessment, calculus component of periodontal disease index of Ramfjord (1959) was used for calculus assessment and gingival condition assessed according to gingival index of Loe and Silness (1963). Unstimulated salivary samples were collected under standardized condition, salivary flow rate was determined and then the salivary samples chemically analyzed to determine the concentration of salivary interleukine - 6, Creactive protein, calcium, magnesium and phosphorus.Results : Caries experience of permanent dentition (DMFS) among study group was lower than that among control group with significant difference (P<0.05) for D2, while caries experience of primary dentition (dmfs) was significantly (P<0.05) lower among study group compared with control group with significant difference (P<0.05) for ds and highly significant difference (P<0.01) for d4.Salivary flow rate was lower among study group compared with control group with no significant difference. No significant correlations (P>0.05) were recorded between salivary flow rate and dental caries, oral cleanliness and gingivalhealth conditions among both groups. The mean value of plaque, calculus and gingival indices were not significantly lower among study group compared with control group. A positive highly significant correlations (P<0.01) were recorded between gingival and plaqueindices among both groups. The level of salivary interleukin - 6 (pg/ml) was higher among study group compared with control group with no significant difference between them; whereas there was no significant difference between the two groups regarding C - reactive protein (?g/ml) level. Salivary calcium and magnesium levels (mg/dl) were highly significantly (P<0.01) lower among study group compared with control group, whereas salivary phosphorus level (mg/dl) was not significantly higher among study group compared with control group. Salivary interleukin - 6 and C - reactive protein were negatively correlated with dental caries of both dentitions among study group with significant correlation (P<0.05) between IL - 6 and D2, while they were correlated positively with dental caries of both dentitions among control group with highly significant correlation (P<0.01) between IL - 6 and D3 and significant correlation (P<0.05) between IL - 6 and d4. Salivary calcium was correlated positively highly significantly (P<0.01) withDMFS and significantly (P<0.05) with D4 among control group. Salivary magnesium was correlated positively significantly (P<0.05) with DMFS and D2 among study group; also it was correlated negatively highly significantly (P<0.01) with d3 amongcontrol group. Salivary phosphorus was correlated significantly (P<0.05) in positive direction with d3 among study group; also it was correlated highly significantly (P<0.01) in negative direction with DMFS and significantly (P<0.05) in positivedirection with d3 among control group.

Abstract: Back ground : Healing socket consists of three new tissue components; epithelium, connective tissue, and bone tissue. Interactive dynamic changes take place between these 3 components during healing period.During the process of healing of the extraction socket the following events occur : firstly, a blood clot (mainly blood cells and network of fibrin) forms and fills the empty socket. Then, the blood clot matures and is organized by the formation of granulation tissue (rich in newly formed vascular structure, abundance of inflammatory cells. The granulation tissue replaces the blood clot completely by the seventh day. After 20 days, the granulation tissue was replaced by collagen, and bone began forming at the base and the periphery of the extraction socket. Epithelium covers the newly formed bone that filled the socket.The healing cascade of all wounds ultimately requires neovascularization, collagen deposition, and collagen constriction by myofibroblasts. Neovascularization in the adult is known to occur by two distinct processes, angiogenesis and vasculogenesis which needs for expression of VEGF.Aim of the study : Histological ,Histomorphometrical and immunohistochemical studies to evaluate the effect of local application of exogenous VEGF/collagen I separately and as a combination in socket healing.Materials and Method : Sixty male Albino Wistar rats were subjected for a surgical tooth extraction of upper 1st molar of both sides ( right side was considered as experimental site ,while left be the control one).The animals were divided into following groups according to the applicable of biomaterials.A. Control group the tooth socket treated with 1?L of normal salineB. Experimental group includes• Group I contains (20) rats, the tooth socket treated with 1?L of VEGF• Group II contains (20) rats the tooth socket treated with 1?L ofcollagen type I• Group III contains (20) rats, the tooth socket treated with 1?L of a combination of VEGF and collagen I. Each group is composed of 20 rats that will be studied in four periods 3,7,14,28 days (5 rats for each period).The specimens were studied histologically histomorphometrical and immunohistochemical identification of fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) and tissue non specific alkaline phosphtase (ALP).Results : 1. Histological findings for all groups illustrate formation of blood clot at 3 days.2. Granulation tissue appears in all groups at 7 days period, and new bone is demonstrated in collagen group and a highly cellular woven bone with active proliferative osteoblast and newly blood vessel is detected in combination group.3. At 14 days new epithelization and new bone trabeculae with fibrous tissue are presented mostly in all groups but with different constitution.4. At 28 days all groups show reepithelization but in different thickness, and with newly bone apposition and with different maturity.5. For positive cells expressed ALP VEGF group records a high mean values at 3,14,28 days periods and with high differences in comparisum to other groups while control group reports a high mean value at 7 days.6. For positive cells expressed FGF2.Control group illustrates a high record for the mean of positive cells expressed FGF2 at 3,7days periods and with high differences in comparisum to other groups, while combination group reports a high mean value at 14 days.7. Results demonstrated that in most periods for each group ,whenever ,ALP is a high value in expression ,records a low expression in FGF2.Conclusion : Results ,high lighted on the effect of local application of VEGF in extracted tooth socket that facilited epithelization ,while combination of (Collagen and VEGF ) shows a high mineralization zone.

Abstract: Background : Breast cancer is the commonest type of malignancy worldwide and in Iraq. It is a serious disease that affects the general health and cause systemic changes that affect the physical and chemical properties of saliva leading to adverse effects on oral health.Aims of the study : The aims of this study were to assess the oral health condition (including dental caries, oral cleanliness and periodontal health condition), to evaluate the changes in salivary flow rate and to assess the concentration of tumor marker CA15 - 3 and selected elements (calcium, phosphorus, zinc, copper, total proteins) in saliva and their relation to oral variables among breast cancer women in comparison to control group.Subjects, Materials and Methods : The total sample consisted of 60 women aged 35 - 45 years attending Al - Kadhemyia Teaching Hospital. Those comprised 30 women newly diagnosed with breast cancer before starting treatment and 30 women without clinical signs and symptoms of breast cancer as a control group.Diagnosis and recording o f dental caries was done by using DMFS indexaccording to the criteria of WHO (1987). Plaque index of Silness and Loe (1964) and calculus component of Ramfjod index for periodontal disease (1959) were applied to assess oral cleanliness. Periodontal disease was evaluated using the gingival index (Loe and Silness, 1963) and loss of attachment level (Ramfjord, 1959). Stimulated salivary samples were collected and salivary flow rate, salivary CA15 - 3, calcium, phosphorus, zinc, copper ions and total proteins were determined.Results : Results showed that caries experience (DMFS) was higher among the study group compared with the control group but the difference was statistically not significant. The mean values of plaque index, calculus index, gingival index and loss of attachment were higher among the study group than the control group with a highly significant difference (P<0.01).The salivary levels of CA15 - 3 in breast cancer patients were higher than that of the controls with a highly significant difference (P<0.01). All the correlations between salivary CA15 - 3 and dental caries and periodontal diseases were statistically not significant.The salivary flow rate was lower among the study group than control group with a highly significant difference (P <0.01). Higher concentrations of salivary phosphorus, copper and total proteins were recorded among study group compared to control with statistically highly significant differences concerning phosphorus and copper (P<0.01). On the other hand, salivary calcium and zinc were lower among study group compared to control group with statistically highly significant difference concerning zinc (P<0.01). All the correlations between the caries experience and salivary constituents in the study and control groups were weak and not significant except the correlation with total proteins in the control group which was significantly positive. Concerning the correlations of oral hygiene and periodontal disease with salivary constituents, the study showed that all the correlations were weak and not significant except the correlations between the total proteins with loss of attachment in study group and with dental plaque in control group which were significantly positive relations.Conclusions : This study showed that the breast cancer patients had poor oral hygiene and higher rates of periodontal diseases and dental caries, therefore special preventive programs need to be designed for this group of patients. Also the results of this study could support the concept that salivary oncentrations of CA15 - 3 might serve to be used in the detection of breast cancer and/or the po operative follow - up of patients under treatment for carcinoma of the breast

Abstract: Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) using miniplates and screws is the treatment of choice for mandibular fractures.Using miniplates and screws along the ideal line of osteosynthesis provides sufficient support and stability to the bone fragments to allow immediate function. It is important to know both : the region where the bone providesafirm anchorage for the screw,andthe topography of thedental apices and inferior alveolar nerve to avoiddamaging them when inserting the screwThe aim of study : The purpose of this study is to determine the thickness of buccal cortical plate and that of buccal bone using computed tomography,at the parasymphysis and mandibular body, thereby determining the area that provide afirm anchorage and the maximum length of mono - cortical screws that can be safely placed in these regions without injuring the tooth roots orinferior alveolar nerve.Materials and Methods : The sample of the present study was a total of 110 Iraqi patients (77 males & 33 females) aged (18 - 35) years old who admitted to Computed Tomography scan unit in AL - SadrTeaching Hospital in Al - Najaf city to getComputed Tomographic examination of facial bones from November 2013 to May 2014. The conventional section of CT (axial) wasused to do the measurements and dental planning analysiswhich is a specific investigation protocol was also used.The thickness of buccal cortical plate and the thickness of buccal bone were measured at the level of root apex of (canine, first premolar, second premolar) and at the level of : root apex and inferior alveolar canal in (mesial and distal root of first and second molar). Results : The mean buccal bone thickness at canine area was (3.7 - 4.3 mm), in premolars area (3.6 - 4 mm), in molar area (at the level of apex) (5.6 - 6 mm), in molar area (at the level of inferior alveolar canal) (5.2 - 5.6 mm) for females and males respectively. The mean buccal cortical plate thickness at canine area was (1.4 - 1.6 mm), in premolars area (1.5 - 1.7 mm), in molar area (at the level of apex) (2.4 - 2.6 mm), in molar area (atthe level of inferior alveolar canal) (2.4 - 2.3 mm) for females and males respectively.There was no statistically significant age and gender difference in buccal cortical plate thickness and buccal bone thickness. Conclusion : Buccal cortical plate thickness and buccal bone thickness in various sites of the mandible could be measured precisely using Multislice Computed Tomography which can guide surgeons in selecting the proper screw length without causing injury to rootapex or inferior alveolar nerve.

CT scan image for this region can provide accurate features about the border, position of incisive canal and status of buccal bone anterior to this canal.Aim of the study : To study for the effect of gender, age and tooth loss in area of maxillary central incisors teeth on the dimensions of the incisive canal and buccal bone anterior to the canal using spiral computed tomography.Subjects, Materials and Methods : The sample consisted of prospective study for 156 subjects of both gender. The sample were divided into two groups, 120 dentate group (60 male and 60 female) with age ranging from (20 - 70) and 36 edentate group(with missing both maxillary central incisor) (18 male and 18 female) with age ranging from (50 - 70), which was further divided into two group according to the duration of maxillary central incisorsteeth loss, long duration (5+) years which consists of 26 subjects and short duration (<5 years) which consists of 10 subjects. All subjects attended to Baquba Teaching General Hospital in Diyala for Computed Tomographic scan investigation for different Maxillofacial diagnostic purposes from November/2013 to April/2014.Using sagittal section of computed tomography scan, the following measurementswere done : A - The diameters of incisive canal were measured at crestal, middle and apical level and the total mean value of canal diameters was calculated. B - The length of incisive canal.C - The distance of buccal bone anterior to incisive canal at crestal, middle and apical level and the total mean value of buccal bone distances was calculated. D - The length of buccal bone anterior to incisive canal from the apical measurement of buccal bone to the alveolar crest. The measuring unit was in millimeter in all measurements.Result : Gender had moderately strong effect on the dimensions of incisive canal and buccal bone anterior to this canal, the mean values begin generally higher for male as compared to female for both control and cases group. Absence of maxillary central incisors decreased incisive canal length and buccal bone dimensions with mean values begin higher in control group than that in cases group, the effect of teeth loss on these selected measurements seem to be strong ;however, canal diameter remain unchanged with dental status and there was no effect of teeth loss on this parameter.There was a moderately strong to strong effect of the duration of maxillary central incisors teeth loss on canal length and buccal bone dimensions with mean values being significantly lower in long duration (5+) years than that in short duration (<5 years) while it had weak effect on incisive canal diameter for both gender. The results showed that there was no significant linear correlation between age and all selected measurements in male and female for both control and cases group. Conclusion : CT scan is a valuable tool to evaluate the anatomic variation at the examined area in the current study, gender and dental status are important factors that can affect incisive canal characteristics and amount of bone anterior to the canal. Clinicians should perform careful planning using CT scans before performing dental implant surgeries in premaxillary region.

Abstract: Bone density is a major factor that affect mini implant primarily stability. No Iraqi studies had been evaluated bone density related to mini - implant placement for orthodontic anchorage at age 13 - 15 years.The present research aims to evaluate gender, side and site differences in the bone density at various orthodontic implant sites for the maxillary alveolar bone (cortical; buccal and palatal and cancellous).The sample of this study consisted of CT images for patients who were attending Al. Shaheed Ghazi Al - Hariri Hospital/the Computerized Tomography department from January 2014 until May 2014. Twenty nine individuals (16 males and 13 females) had subjected to clinical examination, then 64 - multislice computed tomography scan data were evaluated and bone density was measured in Hounsfield unit at 21 points (9 points for each side and 3 points between the right and left central incisors).The results obtained showed that there were no significant differences in bone density between males and females and between the left and right sides. There are no significant differences in bone density between the maxillary buccal cortical bone and the palatal cortical bone except at lateral incisor and canine point where the palatal side had higher bone density than buccal side. The mean bone density of the cancellous bone in the anterior part was higher than that in the posterior of the maxilla.These differences in bone density between and within regions of the maxilla must be considered when placing mini implants and may provide valuable information when selecting sites, size, angle and placement methods for mini implant in the dental arch.

Abstract: Background : Depression is a common mental disorder that presents with depressed mood, its affect oral health through its effect on salivary function. The aims of this study were to assess the relation of depression status on prevalence and severity of dental caries and gingival inflammation among students aged 15 years in relation to salivary physical (flow rate and viscosity) and chemical characteristics concentration of (total protein, zinc, copper, chromium and lithium).Materials and methods : The total sample involved 800 students (males and females) aged 15 years old that were selected randomly, the depression status was measured using Children Depression Inventory (CDI) index that divided the students with depression into four groups according to severity of depression (low or average grade, high average grade, elevated grade and very elevated grade). The diagnosis and recording of dental caries was made by using Decay, Missing, Filled surface index (DMFs), according to the criteria of Manji et al (1989), while gingival condition was evaluated by using the gingival index by L?e and Silness, (1964). Salivary samples were collected under standardized condition from 30 students with very elevated grade and 30 students with low average grade, and then analyzed for measuring salivary flow rate and viscosity, in addition to the estimation of salivary elements (total protein, zinc, copper, chromium and lithium).Results : The prevalence of depression was 100%. The DMFs was lower among students with high average grade than other grades of depression with nonsignificant difference. The severity of dental caries was higher among students with elevated grade concerning D1, D3 and in very elevated grade of depression concerning D2, D4 with highly significant among D4 (P = 0.01). The prevalence of gingivitis in present study was found to be 100%, mild gingivitis occurrence found higher among low or average grade than other grades, but moderate gingivitis was more among very elevated grade, while sever gingivitis was absent. Salivary analysis demonstrated that the salivary flow rate was non significantly higher among students with low or average grade of depression than very elevated, while the viscosity of saliva was not significantly higher among students with very elevated grade. The data analysis of salivary elements found that the total protein and copper was higher among students with very elevated grade while other elements show the opposite result with significant difference concerning copper and zinc among females in very elevated grade, while others with not significant.Conclusion : The results of the current research revealed that caries experience and gingival inflammation increase with depression that has an adverse effect on salivary physicochemical characteristics. There were changes in saliva variables between low or average grade and very elevated grade of depression.

Abstract: The formation of white spot lesions around fixed orthodontic attachments is a common complication during and following fixed orthodontic treatment, which hinder the results of a successfully completed case.The aim of the study was to assess the effectiveness of the Caries Infiltrant (ICON®) on prevention of caries on the smooth enamel surface when applied alone or combined with conventional adhesives. To achieve this objective, seventy eight human premolar enamel discs were randomly assigned to six groups (n=13). The discs were etched and treated with resins of different monomer content forming the following groups : (1)Untreated etched samples served as the negative control, (2) ICON® (DMG), (3) Adper™ SB 2 (3M ESPE), (4) Heliobond (Ivoclar Vivadent), (5) ICON®+ Adper™ SB 2 and (6) ICON®+ Heliobond. Specimens were subjected to demineralization by immersion in hydrochloric acid (pH 2.6) for 18 days. Calcium dissolution into the acid was assessed by photometric test via spectrophotometer at 24 hour intervals.The results revealed that, there was a highly significant difference between the sealed groups and the unsealed (untreated) one (p?0.00) indicating that the unsealed specimens showed the highest amount of Ca ion loss among all other groups. Additionally, there was no significant difference between untreated specimens and the ICON® sealed ones. While, Heliobond decreased the Ca ion loss significantly compared to the untreated specimens and Adper™ SB 2 performed significantly better than both ICON® and Heliobond. Furthermore, the combination of ICON® with either Adper™ SB 2 or Heliobond served as the best protective measures and maintained the protective effect during the whole experiment period.Therefore, within the limitations of this in vitro study, it could be concluded that the use of low - viscosity Caries Infiltrant prior to application of the tested conventional adhesives increases their protective effect against demineralization.

Aim of study : To evaluate the effect of plasma nitride treatment of screw shaped commercially pure titanium dental implant on bond strength at bone implant interface by torque removal test and histomorphometric analysis after 2 and 6 weeks in comparison to non treated one.Materials and methods : Commercial pure titanium plates and screws were plasma nitrided for 10h using glow plasma nitride apparatus. X - ray diffraction (XRD) analysis , scanning electron microscope examination were carried out on the nitride surfaces of the plates ,contact angle measurement (Wettability) was done by applying drop of saline and blood on the nitrided surface and compared to control. The femur of 10 white New Zealand rabbits were chosen as implantation sites. The femur of each rabbit received two screws, one plasma nitride treated and one non treated and a total of 40 screws were implanted. Torque removal test was performed(by digital torque meter) to measure bond strength between implant and bone, after 2 and 6 weeks healing periods. For each period of time 18 screws were tested for the torque required to remove the implant from the bone and 2 screws were kept for histological examination. Results : The results revealed that the mean removal torque values for the plasma nitride treated implants was significantly higher than the non treated implants and over the two periods of time. There was an increase in the bond strength (torque value) of bone - implant interface with time. The torque removal force for plasma nitride implants after 2 and 6 weeks was (30.22, 59.56 N.cm ,respectively) and for non treated implants after 2 and 6 weeks were ( 23.61,56.11N.cm, respectively) and new bone formation ratio for plasma nitride treated implants after 2 and 6 weeks(3.36, 4.72 , respectively) and for non treated after 2 and 6 weeks(1.56, 3.04, respectively). Conclusion : Plasma nitriding of Cp Ti screws significantly increased the torque removal value and new bone formation ratio at 2 and 6 weeks compared with the non treated implant.Dental implant, Osseointegration, Digital torque meter

Abstract: The study was conducted to assess the distribution, prevalence, severity of malocclusion and orthodontic treatment need in Baghdad governorate in relation to gender and residency, and whether it has increased or not over 12 years by comparison with previous survey in Baghdad.A multi - stage stratified sampling technique was used in this investigation to make the sample a representative of target population. The sample consisted of 2700 (1349 males and 1351 females) intermediate school students aged 13 years representing 3% of the total target population.A questionnaire was used to determine the perception of occlusion and orthodontic treatment demand of the students and the assessment procedures for occlusal features by direct intraoral measurement using veriner and an instrument to measure the rotated and displaced teeth. In summary the followingresults were obtained : 1 - 7.7% of the sample had some type of orthodontic treatment or consultation.2 - 39.1% of the students answered that they have malaligned teeth, being significantly more in female than males.3 - of the students who stated that they have malaligned teeth, 26% reported that they had crowded teeth, 26.6% had spaced teeth, 22.4% had protruded teeth and 25.7% had rotated and displaced teeth.4 - Regarding the answers of the effect of mal - aligned teeth, 70.3% answered that it affects their appearance, 17.7% chewing, and 7.7% speech while 4.1% answered that mal - aligned teeth did not affect appearance, chewing or speech.5 - the most common reasons for not seeking orthodontic treatment that the student thought that treatment is fear of pain (48.8%) and not important or not possible (25.8%).6 - One or more missing teeth due to extraction or trauma were found in 4.9% of the sample, and the most common extracted teeth were the first molars (1.6% mandibular and 0.9% maxillary). One or more rotated teeth were found in 38.3% of the sample; one or more displacement teeth were found in 19.6% of the sample.7 - The maxillary anterior region showed the highest prevalence of 2mm or more spacing (15.2%) and the mandibular anterior region showed the highest prevalence of 2mm or more crowding (12.6%); a maxillary central diastema of 1mm or more was found in 18.1% of the sample with a mean of 0.306±0.015mm.8 - Angle’s class I occlusion was found in 78.29%of the sample, class II in 19.5% (17.2% division 1 and 2.3% division 2) and 2.3% had class malocclusion (1.6% postural and 0.7% true). The mean overjet of the sample was 3.31± 0.04 mm. The mean overbite was 2.99±0.03 mm,9 - Midline shift (?1mm) was found in 54.3% of the sample (28% to the right and 26.3% to the left side).Soft tissue impingement was found in 3.3% (3% palatally and 0.3% labially). Normal lip form was found in 86.6%, contracting lip form in 10.1% and lip trap in 3.3% of the sample.10 - The DAI scores registered in this study ranged between 13 and 65 with a mean of 23.234±0.12. 7.3% with treatment highly desirable, and 4.5% with treatment mandatory.Significant changes in the proportions of malocclusions as a whole in school children were found over the last decade; also increase the need for orthodontic treatment among adolescents in the Baghdad commune and low perception level of the Baghdadi children to their own occlusion and the demand on treatment was remarkably low. This data will be useful for public oral health service and emphasize the need for orthodontic treatment among adolescents in Baghdad and stressing on the role of oral health education to encourage the children to undergo orthodontic treatment.

Previous reports indicated that contaminated impressions can cross infect gypsum casts that were poured against them, however immersing or spraying commonly used alginate impression material with disinfectant may adversely affect the accuracy of dies or casts obtained. Objective : The objective was to evaluate the effect of (0.25%,0.5%,1%, 2%, 3%, 4% ) of (NaF) addition on the self - disinfection of alginate impression material and its effect on setting time, tear strength, dimensional change and accuracy of alginate impression materials and to compare this with CHX containing alginate material related to the same properties mentioned above.Materials and methods : A total No. of 800 specimens were prepared in this study, they were divided into five main groups according to the type of the tests used (tear strength test, setting time test, dimensional change test, dimensional accuracy test, and bacteriological tests (Streptococcus mutans and Candida albicans).Six concentrations of NaF from (0.25% to 4%) and 0.1% CHX gluconate were mixed with alginate impression material and compare it with control alginate without disinfectant. Results : The self - disinfecting impression material containing NaF showed a total kill of microorganisms immediately after impressions were made.Tear energies for all experimental impression materials were greater than those of the control products. There were no statistically significant differences between the dimensional change tests and also reproduction of detail test, that contained (NaF) and one that did not. With regard to setting time of the impressions, statistically significant reduction were seen between the control and experimental groups of alginate impression materials. The experimental material that did not contain (NaF) had a considerably longer setting time than all of the other materials tested.Conclusion : the use of (NaF) and CHX disinfection when taking alginate dental impression is a good measure in reduction of contamination and cross infection and have a minute effect on dimensional stability and is recommended as step in protecting dentist and dental laboratories teams.

Abstract: الخلفية : على الرغم من ان ازالة الصفائح الجرثومية (الجير) وكلس الاسنان ( الحصى السنية ) بالطرق الميكانيكية يمثل حجر الزاوية في علاج امراض اللثة، يبقى ذلك بحاجة الى علاج مساند اذا علمنا ان التنظيف الميكانيكي لا يستطيع الوصول الى كل السطوح والاماكن حول السن | Background : Although mechanical debridement of dental plaque and calculus represents the corner stone in periodontal treatment , still it needs an adjunctive therapy since mechanical cleaning cannot reach all the surfaces and sites all around the tooth and within periodontal defect or the bacteria that resides inside periodontal tissues. Chemotherapy been used as an adjunctive therapy alongside with mechanical debridement in different compositions and routes, i.e. : chlorhexidine mouth washes (local routes) , antibiotics (systemic route) , yet chemical treatment might not be sufficient or cannot be used as in cases of drug sensitivity , difficulty to maintain effective concentration at wanted sites and lack of patient dexterity and compliance.Hence, arises the need for an alternative adjunctive therapy, photodynamic therapy has been used in recent years, taking advantage of the toxic effect of light on periodontal pathogens (bacteria). Aims of the study : The purpose of this study was to determine the toxic effect of visible blue light emitted from dental curing led light device of wavelength ranges between 400 - 500nm and energy of 1000 - 1200 mw/cm on the viability of periodontal pathogens (Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans and Porphyromonas gingivalis), alone once , and with combination of 0.2% chlorhexidine mouthwash in vitro.Materials and methods : A.actinomycetemcomitans and P. gingivalis, was obtained from periodontal pockets of patient suffering from periodontitis by removing the plaque carefully to be cultured under anaerobic conditions for 3 days in suitable culture media using anaerobic jar in the incubator, presence of the wanted micro - organism is confirmed using Gram stain and biochemical activity tests.The amount (quantity of bacteria) was determined by direct colony counting and using visual software aids (open CFU software program) when needed.Visible blue light (LED curing light) from a commercially available device the same used in light - cured fillings in dentistry was used to generate a beam of visible blue light with amount of energy 1000 - 1200 mW/cm2 of a wavelength ranges between 400 - 500nm. Samples were subjected to blue light for increasing time intervals and were subcultured after each exposure.Same procedure of light exposure was repeated on plates containing chlorhexidine mouth wash in holes created with pasture tube, a standardized amount of chlorhexidine (0.1mml) was administrated into the holes of each plate, and then the inhibition zone was measured repeatedly for each plate after 72 hours of anaerobic incubation.

Abstract: Background : Dental caries is a quite prevalent disease in Iraqi community however, baseline data concerning this disease and related etiological and risk factor are limited, concerning in selected geographic area in Iraq.Aims of study : This survey was made to investigate the prevalence and severity of dental caries in Al - Mussayb city/ Babylon governorate, the co - relation of this disease was studied with nutrition status and dietary analysis, oral cleanliness and parent'seducation among (16 - 18) years old in high school girls.Materials and Methods : The survey was conducted among high school girls, with a total sample of 900. Diagnosis and recording of dental caries and treatment needs were done according to the criteria of WHO. Dental plaque was assessed by using Plaque Index following the criteria of Silness and Loe. Nutritional status was recorded according to Body Mass Index indicator by applying anthropometric measurement. Dietary analysis was according to Dietary Guidelines in primary health centers in Iraq. Parent's education was divided in to five levels according to modification to educational status of Kuppuswamy's scale.Results : The prevalence of dental caries was (70.5%). The DMFS mean value was (4.94 ±SE 0.161) and the median was equal to (4.00) for the total sample. The DMFS value increased with ages with statistically highly significant difference (P<0.01), The highest percentage of examined girls were in need of one surface filling (60.8%), followed by those in need of two or more surface filling (36.6%). Result showed a weak positive highly significant correlation between plaque index and DMFS (r=0.315, P<0.01). A statistically highly significant difference in DMFS was recorded by different level of parent's education as a lower value of DMFS was seen among girls with high level of parent's education. Results showed statistically highly significant differences in the value of DMFS between different grade of Body Mass Index indicator (P <0.01, df=3), for total sample (11.7%) was malnourished and (65.77%) of girls was with normal weight. Statistically highly significant weak negative correlation was seen between DMFS and different food groups (fruits, vegetable, meat, grain and diary). A weak positive highly significant correlation between DMFS and sweet consumption was seen (r=0.155, P<0.01).Conclusions : Girls in high schools in Al - Mussayb city/ Babylon Governorate demonstrated a high prevalence of dental caries. Nutritional status, dietary habits, oral cleanliness and parent's education were found to affect the severity of this disease, thusthere is a need for public and school preventive programs among those population

Abstract: Molar - Incisor hypomineralisation (MIH) is one of the biggest challenges with great clinical interest for dental practice because MIH has a great impact on the oral health as consequently, on the quality of life of children. Currently, the etiology of MIH remains unclear and is thought to be acquired via multifactorial, systemic disturbances during amelogenesis. There is no previous study concerning school children aged 7 - 9 years in Al - Najaf govemorate in order to estimate the prevalence and severity of molar incisorhypomineralisation and the possible associated risk factors. Objective : To estimate the prevalence , severity and the possible associated etiological factors of molar - incisor hypomineralisation and also to study the correlation between body mass index and molar - incisor hypomineralisation.Patients and Methods : A cross sectional study was conducted at Al - Najaf Govemorate, data were collected during the period from January to the end of April 2014. study population included the primary school children aged, 7 - 9 years of both genders who attending the primary schools of Al - Najaf govemorate. Children having amelogenesis imperfecta, tetracycline staining or undergoing orthodontic treatment at the time of study, those with completely broken crowns of the first permanent molars, or those whose parent/guardians refusedto missed data or not get back the questionnaire were excluded from the study. Sample size was calculated according to the standard equation and a total of 600 children were enrolled. A structured self - administered validated arabic language questionnaire and an examination sheet was measured. Body weight and height were measured and the body mass index was calculated according to the standards. Dental material and supplies were used in examination, Prior to the clinical examination the participating children were given a toothbrush and fluoridated toothpaste to brush their teeth thoroughly under the supervision of the researcher. The demarcated hypomineralization was recorded according to the 10 point scoring system depended on the European academy of pediatric dentistry evaluation criteria. The severity was assessed according to the clinical evaluation of the examiner and the presence of opacities. Data of the studied group were entered and analysed by using the statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) version 21 and appropriate statistical tests were used to assess the differences and correlations between variables. Results : The response rate was 84. 7% and the highest was in the 9 - year - old children, the participants were 532 children, the prevalence of hypomineralisation defect was 22.9%. The prevalence of demarcated hypomineralisation was increased concomitantly with the age, and the 9 - yearold children were the more affected. The overall prevalence of molar - incisor hypomineralisation among boys was lower than girls; (17.3%) and 22.6%, respectively. Molar - incisor hypomineralisation was more frequent in normal body mass index children. The total number of teeth of the studied group was 1464. The number of affected teeth was 3 81 represented (26%) of the total number of teeth. The molar and incisors were most affected with White/creamy demarcated opacities with no posr eruptive enamel breakdown, (27.7% and 15.2%), respectively. The severely affected teeth were 33 teeth, represented 4.5% of the total number of teeth of the 122 children , severely affected molars were 25 (5.1 %) and the severely affected incisors were 8 (0.8%), (P=0.001), Obeseand overweight were more likely to have more severely affected teeth and the severity was also increased with the age of child. Conclusions and Suggestions : The prevalence of Molar Incisor Hypomineralisation among Iraqi schoolchildren of Al Najaf govemorate was 22.9%, it was more prevalent among girls, the 9 - year - old children , normal body weight children and urban residents. Molars were more affected with than incisors. It was more prevalent in maxillary than mandibular teeth. The severely affected teeth represented 4.5% of the total number of teeth of the 122 children. , molars were more severely affected than incisors. The more severely affected teeth reported inobese and underweight children. Further studies are suggested for further understanding of the etiological and risk factors of the disease.

These patients are typically transfusion - dependent, and have significant complications, including iron overload, immune system disorders, and bacterial and/or viralinfections which can affect the oral health condition. Aims of the study : The aims of the present study were to assess the severity of dental caries, dental plaque, gingivitis, levels of selected salivary immunological components and iron concentration in saliva, among a group of boys and girls with beta thalassemia major in comparison with the control group.Materials and methods : The study involved 17 boys and 23 girls with beta thalassemia major, aged 8 - 9 years compared to 17 healthy boys and 23 healthy girls with the same age group. dmfs/ds and DMFS/DS indices (WHO, 1987), plaque index (Silness and L?e,1964), and gingival index (L?e and Silness, 1963) were applied, unstimulated salivary samples were collected for estimation the salivary immunological components(Secretory Immunoglobulin A, lysozyme, peroxidase, and lactoferrin) in which they were analyzed by enzyme - linked immune sorbent assay kits and iron ion concentration in saliva which was analyzed biochemically.Results : Results showed that, caries - experience was higher among beta thalassemia children compared to healthy children. In primary teeth, a higher dmfs/ds mean value was recorded for study group (dmfs/ds=8.93±6.40) compared to control group (dmfs/ds=6.63±5.38), the difference was statistically not significant (p>0.05), except for girls the difference was statistically significant (p<0.05). For permanent teeth, DMFS/DS mean value was found to be higher instudy group (DMFS/DS=0.63±1.23) compared to control group (DMFS/DS=0.58±0.75), and the difference was statistically not significant (p>0.05). plaque index mean value was higher in study group (PI=1.69±0.45) compared to control group (PI=1.52±0.28), and the difference was statistically significant (p<0.05). gingival index mean value was higher in study group (GI=1.38±0.20) compared to control group (GI=1.22±0.10), and the difference was statistically highly significant (p<0.01). Correlation between dental plaque and gingivitis in study group was positive with statistically highly significant(p<0.01). There were some variation in the levels of salivary immunological parameters between study and control groups, the differences were statistically not significant(p>0.05), except that for peroxidase, the levels were higher in study group compared to control group and the difference was statistically significant (p<0.05). Iron ion concentrations were higher in study group compared to control group, the difference was statistically not significant (p>0.05). The correlation between secretory immunoglobulin A levels and dmfs/ds in study group was statistically significant (r= - 0.32, p=0.02). Lysozyme was correlated with DMFS/DS in study group and the correlation was statistically significant (r=0.38, p=0.01). lactoferrin was correlated with dmfs/ds and DMFS/DS in control group, and the correlation was statistically highly significant and significant respectively (r=0.52, p=0.00), (r=0.32, p=0.04). The correlations between iron ion concentrations and dental caries were statistically not significant(p>0.05) for both groups. All the correlations between measured salivary parameters and dental plaque and gingivitis were found to be statistically not significant(p>0.05) for both groups. The correlations between iron ion and immunological components were statistically not significant(p>0.05).

Abstract: Background : When prevention of dental caries fails, and a child is exposed to the risk of pain and infection, the disease must be managed to reduce this risk. There is a growing evidence supporting more 'biological approaches' for managing dental cariesin primary teeth. The Hall Technique is one of the biological approaches for managing caries in primary molars which involves sealing caries beneath preformed metal crowns (stainless steel crowns). The crown is cemented over the tooth without theuse of local anesthesia, caries removal, or tooth preparation. The clinical steps for the Hall Technique are straightforward but, as with all dental care provision, appropriate treatment planning for the procedure requires skill. The Hall Technique offers anothermethod of managing early to moderately advanced, active carious lesions in primary molars, with good evidence of effectiveness and acceptability.Aims of the study : This study was conducted to assess the possible local factors that might happen along with using this novel technique regarding the possible adverse effect of the increased occlusal - vertical dimension and the condition of the surrounding tissues.Also to assess the correlation between the rate of the successful outcome with the caries extension towards the pulp.In addition to evaluate the cost - effectiveness of the Hall Technique in comparison with the conventional restorations. Finally to estimate whether this technique can be performed efficiently by both the specialized dentists and general practitioners in terms of putting the appropriate treatment plan based on the radiographic assessment.Material and methods : A retrospective research was conducted, standardized bitewing radiographs of 100 patients between 3 - 9 years old were evaluated for marginal bone changes. The distance between the cemento - enamel junctions and the alveolar bonecrest was measured. The dentine was evaluated as well regarding the existence of clear band of dentine and the extension of the caries towards the pulp of the tooth. - The cost effectiveness was conducted by creating a scenario of the possible outcomes for the treatment decision whether it was Hall preformed metal crown or traditional restoration. Incremental cost - effectiveness ratio was calculated to find the savingamount value. - A panel consisting of five general practitioners and three specialized dentists weas asked to evaluate twelve bitewings radiograph presented to them and give their opinion whether these radiographs are suitable for Hall Technique or not.Results : The result of this presented study showed that there is decreasing in the distance between the cemento - enamel junction and alveolar bone level at the Hall PMCs treatment side between the before and after insertion periods.it also showed thatthere's no different bone level changes between the Hall preformed metal crown treatment side and its contra - lateral side regardless of its condition (Hall preformed metal crowns, no Hall preformed metal crowns). - A high rate of successful treatment is highly associated with observing a clear band of dentine but it is not associated with the carious extinction toward the pulp as long as a clear band of dentine can be seen. - The Hall Technique is more cost - effective by making more cost saving and more gained teeth. The Hall Technique can be performed efficiently by both the general practitioners and the specialized dentist.Conclusion : according on the results of this research it can be settled that there are no adverse effects of using Hall preformed metal crowns regarding the increase of occlusalvertical dimension and the periodontal condition also the Hall Technique is more costeffective and can be performed by specialized dentists as well as the general practitioners.

Abstract: Elastomeric chains are one of the most commonly used force delivery systems. They have the ability to exert an interrupted force, convenience of use, compatibility to oral environment and cost effectiveness despite of the inherited disadvantage which is force degradation.This in vitro study was designed to evaluate the effect of alcohol presence in mouthwashes on force degradation of different configurations of clear elastomeric chains from Ortho Technology company which are : closed, short and long under the effect of time at different intervals (Initial, 1day, 1, 2, 3 and 4 weeks) with exposure to different chemical solutions.A total of (540) elastomeric chains of three different types (long, short and closed) transparent in color, with an initial length (19mm) and about 50% extension (29mm) were used for the study. These elastomeric chains was divided into four groups and exposed to different chemical solutions (Distilled water, Listerine Original alcoholic mouthwash, Listerine Zero alcohol mouth wash, Ethanol 26.9%) twice daily for 60 seconds each according to manufacturer's instructions to measure the amount of force degradation in different time intervals. These elastomeric chains were incubated in covered glass containers at 37C? for the entire testing period.The results of the present study showed that the elastomeric chains were greatly affected by time, the majority of force loss occurred after the first 24hr. then followed by a less steep gradient for the rest of the working period.We can conclude that alcoholic mouth wash (Listerine Original) causes an increase in force degradation of all types of elastomeric chains while alcohol free mouth wash (Listerine Zero) causes less force degradation of all types of elastomeric chains, additionally closed configuration elastomeric chains has the least percentage of force degradation than other configurations of elastomeric chains.

Abstract: Maxillary molar distalization is an important method for correcting class II molar relationship.The important thing in the use the distalizing appliances is to reduce the patient cooperation with minimizing the effects of distalizing appliances on the anchoring teeth.Aims : The aim of this study is to compare three different intra - maxillary molar distalization devices with different designs , force direction. Other aims are to compare the effect of these devices on first permanent molars in mesiodistal , buccopalatal, rotational aspects. It aims also to compare the effect of these devices on the first premolar ( which is a part of anchoring system ).Materials and Methods : The samples consisted of three groups; Frog appliance, K - Loop spring and Multidistalizing arch on typodont simulation system (Ormaco). Upper typodont arch of class II division I was used.Pre and postoperative digital images were taken and analysed using AutoCAD software for each group, Six parameters was measured and compared ; first molar ( vertical change ,tipping change ,rotation, distalization rate) and first premolar (vertical change ,tipping change).A significant value of 0.05 was determined.Results : The results of present study showed that the multidistalizing arch gave rise a significant distal tipping, extrusion, distopalatal rotation of first molar and gave rise the highest mean value of first molar distalization rate. Also, gave rise a significant distal tipping and extrusion of first premolar.Frog appliance showed the lowest mean value of molar distalization rate ,distal tipping and rotation , in comparison with Multidistalizing arch (MDA) and K - Loop spring. Also, these parameters ranged between the highest and lowest mean value in extrusion of first molar , first premolar vertical change , Also showed lowest mean of distal tipping of first premolar than Multidistalizing arch (MDA).K - Loop spring ranged between the highest and lowest mean value distalization rate , distal tipping of first molar. Also, showed the lowest mean value in extrusion of first molar and extrusion of first premolar and rotation of first molar.However, The K - Loop spring show mesial tipping of first premolar in comparisom with (MDA) and Frog appliance that show distal tipping of first premolar.Conclusions : It is concluded that the three methods are effective in molar distalization. The best method of first molar distalization ranged between the K - Loop spring and Frog appliance. Consequently the two methods showed good amount of molar distalization with minimal effects on first molar and first premolar.

Abstract: Background Chronic periodontitis is an inflammatory disease that affects the supporting tissues of the teeth and it is common among adults. Smoking is an important risk factor for periodontitis that induces alveolar bone loss. Alkaline phosphatase enzyme is involved in the destruction of the human periodontium. It is produced by many cells such as polymorphonuclear leukocytes, osteoblasts, macrophages and fibroblasts within the area of the periodontium and gingival crevice. Osteocalcin is one of the most abundant matrix proteins found in bones and the only matrix protein synthesized exclusively there. Small osteocalcin fragments are found in areas of bone remodeling and are actually degradation products of the bone matrix.Aims of the study 1. Investigate whether light smoker chronic periodontitis patients exhibit different salivary concentrations of Alkaline Phosphatase and Osteocalcin compared to the non - smoker counterpart and compare to light smoker and nonsmoker control groups and 2.Correlate the clinical periodontal parameters (plaque index, gingival index, bleeding on probing, probing pocket depth and clinical attachment level) to the biochemical findings in light smokers and non - smokers chronic periodontitis and control groups. 3. Estimation of the salivary PH and flow rate and correlate them with clinical periodontal and biochemical parameters. Materials and Methods Five ml of unstimulated whole saliva samples and fullmouth clinical periodontal recordings (plaque index, gingival index, bleeding on probing, probing pocket depth and clinical attachment level) were obtained from study groups (25 light smokers and 33 non - smokers subjects, both with chronic periodontitis) and control groups (8 light smokers and 13 non - smokers subjects, both with healthy periodontium). All subjects were systemically healthy males, with age range (30 - 50) years. Salivary Alkaline phosphatase and Osteocalcin levels were determined by Colorimetric and Enzyme - linked Immunosorbent Assay, respectively. Salivary PH and flow rate were also measured.Results Smoker chronic periodontitis patients revealed non - significant differences in clinical periodontal parameters with non - smoker counterparts (P > 0.05) in terms of plaque index, probing pocket depth, clinical attachment loss, salivary PH and flow rate, with slight increase in plaque index value in smoker chronic periodontitis group(1.42±0.46) than non - smoker chronic periodontitis group (1.38±0.50), while there was slight decrease in mean value of probing pocket depth (3.90±1.78), clinical attachment level (3.22±0.93) and PH (7.58±0.50) in smoker chronic periodontitis group than non - smoker chronic periodontitis group (4.27±1.98), (3.74±0.85), (7.73±0.33) respectively. Flow rate value was higher in smoker chronic periodontitis (4.80±2.69) than non - smoker chronic periodontitis group (4.67±2.09). While there were highly significant differences in terms of gingival index and bleeding on probing (P ? 0.01). Osteocalcin levels were lower in smoker chronic periodontitis group (0.13±0.20) than non - smoker chronic periodontitis group (1.09±2.26) with significant difference (0.05 ? P > 0.01). Highly significant, strong, positive correlations were found between Osteocalcin concentration with plaque index and PH in non - smoker control group. Correlation analysis between Osteocalcin concentration and flow rate in smoker chronic periodontitis group revealed a significant, moderate, positive correlation.Mean of Alkaline phosphatase level was lower in smoker chronic periodontitis (11.14±4.53) than non - smoker chronic periodontitis (11.45±4.17) with a nonsignificant difference, while there was a significant difference in Alkaline phosphatase concentrations between smoker and non - smoker control subgroups.Correlation analysis between ALP concentration and clinical periodontal parameters (plaque index, gingival index, bleeding on probing, probing pocket depth and clinical attachment level) in chronic periodontitis smoker group appear non - significant, weak,negative and related non - significantly, weakly, positively with PH and flow rate. Clinical attachment level and PH correlated non - significantly, weakly, negatively with Alkaline phosphatase concentration, while plaque index, gingival index, bleeding on probing, probing pocket depth and flow rate related non - significantly, weakly, positively with Alkaline phosphatase concentration in chronic periodontitis non - smoker group. There was a significant, moderate, negative correlation between salivary PH and bleeding on probing and significant, weak, negative correlation regarding probing pocket depth in smoker chronic periodontitis group.A significant, weak, positive correlation between salivary flow rate and clinical attachment level was found in non - smoker chronic periodontitis group.There were non - significant differences between smoker chronic periodontitis and smoker control groups in terms of salivary PH, flow rate, Osteocalcin and Alkaline phosphatase concentrations. There were non - significant differences between non - smoker chronic periodontitis and non - smoker control groups in terms of PH, flow rate, Osteocalcin and Alkaline phosphatase concentrations. There were non - significant, weak increase in Alkaline phosphatase concentration compared to the increase in Osteocalcin concentration in smoker and non - smoker chronic periodontitis and smoker control groups, while there was a nonsignificant, weak decrease in Alkaline phosphatase concentration with increase in Osteocalcin concentration in non - smoker control group. Conclusion Within the limits of this study, it may be suggested that suppression of salivary Osteocalcin levels by smoking and weak increase in Alkaline phosphatase in smokers groups, may explain the deleterious effects of smoking on periodontal healthstatus.

Abstract: The objectives of this study was to evaluate the effect of addition of Multi - Wall Carbon Nano ubes(MWCNTs) of different concentration (0.05 mg/mL - 1, 0.25 mg/mL - 1, 0.5 mg/mL - 1and 1 mg/mL - 1) with on either (dimethyl sulphoxide DMSO and distilled water DW) on tooth enamel. It is intended to evaluate enamel microhardness in (Kg.m - 2) and enamel thermal conductivity before and after the application of (MWCNTs).Ninety mandubular first premolar were prepared for this study. They were divided into two groups. The first group contains 54 sample to measure the microhardness of the enamel. To overcome the teeth curvature in microhardness measurement, the position of indenter were optimized to coincide linear buccal surface. The second group contains 36 sample to measure the thermal conductivity of the enamel were prepared by cutting enamel part in triangle form with a base of 7. 5 mm , height of 9. 5 mm and thickness of 2 mm according to the requirements of the Fourier’s law by abrasive disk.The results enamel microhardness showed that a significant increase in the enamel microhardness and enamel thermal conductivity for groups 0.05 mg/mL (group B) , 0.25 mg/mL (group C ) , 0.5 mg/mL (group D ) and 1 mg/mL (group E ) compared with control group (group A ) in DW media and DMSO media. The results showed a significant increase in the enamel microhardness and enamel thermal conductivity for polished samples compared with unpolished samples in DW media and DMSO media. DMSO media increases the enamel microhardness and enamel thermal conductivity more effectively than DW media. Scanning electron microscope showed a significant deposition of MWCNTs in the depth of the enamel exceeding the surface layer. The polished specimens had more deposited MWCNTs compared with non - polished specimens. However, the nano dimensions with conjunction with pre - chemical treatment enabled the MWCNTs to penetrate and settle down inside the enamel.The final conclusion highest mean value obtained was 1 mg/mL (group E ) in the enamel microhardness and enamel thermal conductivity suspension in DW media and DMSO media.

Abstract: Background : Dental implants provide a unique treatment modality for the replacement of lost dentition. The clinical success of implants has been achieved not only because of the mechanical strength or cellent biocompatibility of the implant material but also owing to other characteristics such as surface properties.Aims of the study : The goal of this study was to consider the role of nanoscale topographic modification of commercial pure titanium dental implant using a thermal deposition and chemical etching methods for the purpose of improving osseointegration.Materials and methods : Commercial pure titanium rod was machined into 40 dental implants. Each implant was machined in diameter about 3mm, length of 8mm (5mm was threaded part and 3mm was flat part). Implants were prepared and divided into 4 groups according to the types of surface modification method used : 1st group (10 implant) machined surface i.e remained without nano surface modification (control),2nd group include (10 implant)etched with 15N H2SO4 and 30% H2O2,3rd group include (10 implant)were coated with nano CPTi powder by thermal evaporation deposition technique,4th group (10 implant)were chemically etched with H2SO4 and H2O2 method to obtain a nano feature then coated with nano powder of CPTi by thermal evaporation deposition technique.Nano surfaces were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), Xray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscope (AFM), thickness measurement and microscopical examination for the invitro experiments. For the invivo part of study, the tibia of 10 white New Zealand rabbits were chosen as implantation sites. The tibia of each rabbit received two screws. Biomechanical test was performed after two weeks healing periods. Implants from eight animals were tested for the torque required to remove the implantfrom the bone and the other two animals were prepared for histological examination.Results : For invitro results, scanning electron microscope showed that chemical etching of Ti substrate becomes highly porous and has surface consisting of nano_sized pits and the combination of chemical etching and thermal evaporation of nano Ti showed nano rod like structure. The results of removal torque means value after 2 weeks of implantation showed that, there was a gradual increase in the removal torque mean values in the studied groups as a follow (M±SD) : 12.625 N.cm ± 0.517 machined surface, 30.500 N.cm ± 4.071 chemically etched, 46.875 N.cm ± 5.938 nano CPTi coating by thermal evaporation method, 51.250 N.cm ± 5.175 combination method of chemical etching and nano CP Ti coating. In addition, the histological analysis showed improved quality of bone in response to the nano surface modified screws, especially the combination treated implants show a well developed mature bone characterized by a well developed bony threads and haversian canal. Conclusion : The biomechanical and biological properties of the bone - implant interface associated with the nano modified implants were improved comparing to the unmodified implants. All nano modified CP Ti seems to be well tolerated by the bone since no adverse tissue reaction was evident and they have better mechanical properties and excellent biocompatibility through the improved performance regarding the bone implant contact area than the untreated implants.

Abstract: Background : University dental students perceived a higher level of stress prior to each examation especially the final. Therefore, there is a need for a useful noninvasive biomarker for measuring acute stress in those students. Many studies considered salivary alpha - amylase as a stress biomarker that is most often used in conjunction with cortisol. Understanding of the exact association between these two salivary stress markers are poorly established. Using a Helkimo anamnestic and clinical dysfunction scoring index for temporomandibular disorders can give a better insight about the association between these markers and temporomandibular joint disorders.The aims of study : was to evaluate the levels of salivary alpha - amylase and salivary cortisol in stressed students with temporomandibular joint disorders and the differences between these markers in relation to temporomandibular joint disorders students. This might give a better understanding to the role of psychological stress as an etiological factors for developing temporomandibular joint problems.Subjects, materials and methods : A total eighty (60 study and 20 control) participants aged between 20 and 24 years, were recruited for this study. The participants were final year undergraduate Baghdad university dental students who were examined and gave saliva samples before their final academic examination. Those with temporomandibular joint disorders problems were exposed to psychological stress and included on the study. While, those who were taking corticosteroids or hormone supplementation including oral contraceptives, or having history of head injury, orthodontic treatment, occlusal disharmonies and muscle tenderness due to systemic diseases as fibromyalgia, or having more than 2 missing posterior teeth were excluded. Salivary assay kits (alpha - amylase and cortisol) were used to measure those variables and a Helkimo anamnestic and clinical dysfunction scoring for temporomandibular joint disorders were utilized in this study.Results : There is statistically a highly significant difference of the salivary cortisol and salivary alpha - amylase in the patient group( stress with temporomandibular joint disorders) and control group. The absence of correlation between these salivary markers was founded. Correlation analysis of salivary cortisol with Helkimo anamnestic and clinical dysfunction score shows positive association expressed by significant probability of error (p) value while for salivary alpha - amylase there is no association.Conclusion : This study demonstrates that salivary alpha amylase can be used as a stress biomarker in conjunction with cortisol to assess temporomandibular joint problems due to psychological stress in university students.

Abstract: Thalassemia is a hereditary anemia resulting from defects in hemoglobin production. Beta Thalassemia, which is caused by a decrease in the production of beta globin chains, affects multiple organs and is ssociated with considerable morbidity and mortality. Aims of the study : The aims of this study were to study the oro - facial manifestations in beta thalassemia major patients and evaluation of the oxidative stress status in serum and saliva represented by malondialdehyde as xidative stress indicator and also assessment of serum and saliva antioxidants which are ceruloplasmin and uric acid in beta thalassemic patients with and without periodontitis and compared that with the healthy individuals in addition to investigate the relation between the clinical findings and laboratory investigations.Methods : Eighty seven (87) subjects were consented and contributed in this study, twenty eight (28) thalassemic patients with periodontitis, thirty (30) thalassemic patients without periodontitis and twenty nine (29) healthy subjects that were age matched with the patients. Oral examination has been done for each subject. Serum and saliva sample have been taken from each subject for analysis, to study malondialdehyde as oxidative stress and antioxidants ceruloplasmin and uric acid.Results : Malocclusion was the most common prevalent oro - facial manifestations (60%), followed by rodent face (35%), brown pigmentation of oral mucosa (23%) and incompetent lip (8%). The mean serum and saliva malondialdehyde were significantly higher in thalassemic patients with periodontitis than that in thalassemic patients without periodontitis and healthy subjects (p<0.001), while the mean serum and saliva ceruloplasmin were significantly higher in control group than that in other study groups (p<0.001). The mean serum uric acid was significantly higher in thalassemic patients without periodontitis than that in thalassemic patients with periodontitis and healthy subjects (p<0.001) and the mean saliva uric acid was significantly higher in thalassemic patients without periodontitis (p<0.05) compaired with thalassemic patients with periodontitis and healthy subjects. The results of this study showed that there were no significant correlation between serum and saliva malondialdehyde in any of study groups, while there was a positive significant linear correlation between serum and saliva ceruloplasmin in thalassemic patients with periodontitis (p<0.05), a negative significant linear correlation in healthy subjects (p<0.05) , a positive significant linear correlation in thalassemic patients without periodontitis (p<0.001). The results showed that there was a positive significant linear correlation between serum and saliva uric acid in thalassemic patients with periodontitis (p<0.05), a positive significant correlation in thalassemic patients without periodontitis (p<0.001) and no significant correlation between serum and saliva in healthy subjects. On the other hand there were no significant correlation between serum and saliva (malondialdehyde, ceruloplasmin and uric acid) and clinical attachment loss (p>0.05), except a positive significant linear correlation between clinical attachment loss and salivamalondialdehyde (p<0.05) was found. Conclusions : Malocclusion was the most prevalent oro - facial manifestations of beta thalassemia major patients. Oxidative stress play a significant role in the pathogenesis of beta thalassemia ,which was the main cause of red blood cells destruction represented by significant elevation of serum and saliva malondialdehyde and significant reduction of ceruloplasmin. Also oxidative stress remain contributing factor in periodontal tissue destruction, which was appeared as a significant increased level of saliva malondialdehyde and decreased saliva ceruloplasmin in patients with periodontitis and there was a significant correlation between saliva malondialdehyde and clinical attachment loss

Abstract: Background : Bones are rigid organs that constitute part of the endoskeleton of vertebrates. They support and protect the various organs of the body, produce red and white blood cells and store minerals. Bone tissue has been shown to contain numerous cell - to - cell signaling peptides called growth factors. These growth factors are thought to have important regulating effects for bone remodeling and bone healing. Several growth factors are expressed during fracture repair. of these, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), is of particular interest because of its ability to induce neovascularization (angiogenesis). The responses to exogenous VEGF observed that a slow - release formulation of VEGF, applied locally at the site of bone damage, may prove to be an effective therapy to promote human bone repair. N - acetyl glucosamine is a monosaccharide, which are the derivatives of carbohydrates, it helps the body in making several other chemical agents which are used in the formation of bones, muscles and cartilages.N - acetylglucosamine is very effective in providing support for the skeletal system of the humans, and may provide strength to the ligaments and joints, and the skin remains fresh and glowing. Aims of study1. To identify role of local exogenous application of vascular endothelial growth factor and application of N - acetyl - D glucose amine as a biomaterial in bone healing.2. To analyze the expression of Vascular endothelial growth factor, tissue non specific ALP and bone matrix protein (collagen - 1) by immunohistochemistry in created bone defect after application with different biomaterials in a rat model. Materials and MethodsIn this experimental study fifty four male Albino rats, weighting (300 - 400) gram, aged (6 - 8) months were used and maintained under control conditions of temperature, drinking and food consumption. The animals were subjected for a surgical operation of medial sides of both tibial bone ( right side was considered as experimental site ,while left be the control one). The animals were divided into following groups according to the applicable growth factors.A. Contol group the bone defect treated with 1?m of normal saline and its number represented the all number of the following experimental groups as the left side of each animal considered to be the control.B. Experimental group includes ? Group I contains (18) rats, the bone defect treated with 1?ml of Vascular endothelial growth factor. ? Group II contains (18) rats the bone defect treated with 1?ml of Nacetyl D - glucosamine.? Group III contains (18) rats, the bone defect treated with 1?m combination of (VEGF& N - acetyl D - glucosamine).Every single group composed of 18 rats that studied in three periods 3,7,10 days (6 rats for each period). Histologic and immunohistochemical evaluation for VEGF, alkaline phosphatase and collagen type 1 were carried for all animals.Results : A. For Histological findings An early apposition of osteoid tissue was detected in VEGF group. Osteoblast, osteocyte and osteoclast cells count were demonstrated to be with high mean value in VEGF group followed by N - acetyl Dglucosamine group in periods 3,7,10 days post operative of bone defect.Inflammatory phase as first step in bone healing was detected in all study groups at 3 day, and combination group records highest value in the mean of inflammatory cell count in comparisum to others. Finally thestudy demonstrated that exogenous VEGF/ N - acetyl D - glucosamine has a direct effect on osteoblastic activity.B. For Immunohistochemical findings The present result showed positive expression of VEGF by bone marrow stromal cells, adipocytes, mesenchymal stem cells, precursor endothelial cells, and bone cells include osteoblasts and active osteocytes in different periods in all groups but in different score. Therefore, our primarily data provide evidence that VEGF activity is essential for appropriate bone formation and mineralization in response to injury. At day 3, bone marrow stromal cells in combination group records highVEGF expression, VEGF group is the second. At 7 and 10 day VEGF group records a highest VEGF expression in comparisum to other groups. The data showed a high expression for ALP during the formative stages of bone in all groups except combination group shows the lowest count for positive cells that expressed ALP.the present results showed that at day 3, bone marrow stromal cells in VEGF and N - acetyl D - glucosamine group records high collagen type I expression. Conclusion : the study demonstrated that low application of VEGF / Nacetyl D - glucosamine could be an effective therapeutic for bone injuries, these data are promising for a possible future clinical usage.

Abstract: Petroleum is perhaps the most important substance consumed in modern society. Petroleum is unique and s a complex mixture of thousands of compounds. Oil refinery workers are continuously exposed to numerous hazardous materials and working conditions that place them at continuous risk of injury and death.Petroleum contains the heavy metals as a natural constituent or as additives. The main threats to human health from heavy metals are associated with exposure to lead, cadmium, mercury and arsenic. Several carcinogenic metals such as arsenic, cobalt, chromium, lead, mercury, and nickel induce redox reactions in living systems. These metals induce the production of reactive oxygen species in both in vivo and in vitro systems. These radicals have rendered oxidative damage to deoxyribonucleic acid, proteins, and lipids. Secretory immunoglobulin A is the main immunoglobulin found in mucous secretions from the tear glands, salivary glands, mammary glands, the respiratory system, the genito - urinary tract, and the gastrointestinal tract.Aims of the study Assessment of the salivary levels of heavy metals among the workers of Al - Daura oil refinery, assessment of the oxidative status in the oral cavity of the workers by measurement of Malondialdehyde and Superoxide dismutase markers,assessment of the oral immunological activity by measurement of secretory immunoglobulin A level in saliva and Assessment of the oral findings among the workers.Subjects, Materials and Methods This study was done in Al - Daura oil refinery, samples consist of 60 workers involved in refining processes as study group subdivided into three subgroups which represent the different sections in the refinery and 20 subjects not involved in refining processes as control group. Oral examination and saliva collection was done to assess the oral findings and measure the level of heavy metals (lead and cadmium), oxidative status (Malondialdehyde and Superoxide dismutase) and secretory IgA.Results The mean of salivary lead and cadmium was higher in study group (6.34 ?g/dl and 0.56 ?g/l respectively) than that of control group (3.3?g/dl and 0.34 ?g/l respectively) with highly significant difference (p
