Cross-sectional morphology and minimum canal wall widths in C-shaped roots of mandibular molars
Wen Lin Chai,Yo Len Thong +1 more
TL;DR: The cross-sectional canal morphology and minimum widths of buccal and lingual canal walls were studied in 20 mandibular molars with C-shaped roots and canal orifices and suggest that there is a higher risk of root perforation at the thinner lingual walls of C- shaped canals during shaping and post canal preparation procedures.

Periodontal response to two intracanal medicaments in replanted monkey incisors
TL;DR: Treatment with the corticosteroid-antibiotic inhibited inflammatory resorption and was slightly more effective than calcium hydroxide in producing a periodontal healing response.

Intracanal bisphosphonate does not inhibit replacement resorption associated with delayed replantation of monkey incisors.
TL;DR: Overall, bisphosphonate resulted in a worse outcome than calcium hydroxide in terms of both root resorption and ankylosis.
