Materials and methods: A total of 44 single-rooted premolar teeth were used in this study. The tooth crowns were removed and the root canals were prepared. Depending on the vehicle to be used for preparing calcium hydroxide pastes, four groups were made: group I: Ca(OH) 2 saline paste (control group), group II: Ca(OH) 2 neem , group III: Ca(OH) 2 aloe vera , group IV: Ca(OH) 2 turmeric paste. After biomechanical preparation, calcium hydroxide herbal paste dressings were applied and sealed with resin-based cement. The teeth were placed in containers with distilled water, and the pH of the water was measured at regular intervals over 3, 24, and 168 hours. Results: The present study showed all herbal pastes allowed the diffusion of ions, but pastes prepared with aloe vera showed more ion diffusion and a marked increase in pH, depicting better support for calcium hydroxide action. Conclusion: Aloe vera allows better diffusion of calcium hydroxide through dentinal tubules, thus enhancing its action, and advises its use as a vehicle for placing intracanal medicament. Clinical significance: Calcium hydroxide [Ca(OH) 2 ] is the most common and effective intracanal medicament. However, CH is not so effective when used alone. Therefore combinations are required to enhance its clinical properties. To be effective, diffusion of hydroxyl ions are required for which vehicle plays a significant role.

Optical magnification has expanded the horizons of dentistry. In past decades, dentistry has not only evolved clinically but the histological aspects has also played an important part in the development of new materials as well as helped in better evaluation of treatment procedures. Microscope was initially started in ophthalmology, it's benefits in endodontic therapy which was best performed remains unparalleled. These benefits also extend to all aspects of dentistry including periodontics, restorative, prosthetic dentistry, and implant dentistry. Barring the disadvantages of steep learning curve, cost, and maneuverability of the equipment, magnifications are definitely becoming an important aspect of modern-day dentistry, owing to their numerous other benefits.

Root submergence technique instead maintains the natural attachment apparatus of the tooth in the pontic site, which in turn allows for complete preservation of the alveolar bone frame and assists in the creation of an esthetic result in adjacent multiple tooth replacement cases. This study reports a case of fractured nonvital tooth where root submergence procedure was carried out, which represents intact bone aiding in the esthetics and function of the prosthesis.

Materials and Methods: The dentin disc of third molars (n = 45) was obtained and was randomized into three groups. Group metapex, modified triple antibiotic paste (MTAP), and control group according to the medicaments used. Teeth were incubated in 100% humidity for 7 days. For each group, teeth were subjected to microhardness testing. The one-way analysis of variance test was used to check mean differences among the groups. Post hoc analysis was done using Tukey's Honest Significant Difference test. Results: Significant differences (P < 0.001) in mean microhardness of dentin between the control group and medicament group. The intergroup comparisons of metapex and MTAP group did not show any statistically significant variations (P > 0.05) in mean microhardness of dentin after the 7th day of application. Conclusion: Under the condition of this study, MTAP affe...
