Abstract
Background The aim was to evaluate and compare the efficacy of TheraCal LC, mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), and Biodentine as direct pulp capping (DPC) materials in patients with pulpal exposure in the posterior teeth. Methodology A total of 54 samples were assessed for eligibility. Out of this, 12 teeth samples failed to meet the inclusion criteria. Finally, 42 teeth samples were selected which were randomly distributed into three groups (n = 14). Groups A, B, and C received the intervention of MTA, Biodentine, and TheraCal LC, respectively. The assessment was performed clinically to check for postoperative pain, tenderness, and neural sensibility, and the radiographs were used to check the presence of periodontal ligament (PDL) space widening, calcified barrier, and periapical radiolucency at the follow-up of 21 days, three months, and 12 months. The outcomes depended on the clinical and radiographic success rates recorded at 12 months of recall. Results Overall successful outcome of DPC clinically at different periods was 97.61% at three months and 88.09% at 12 months. A Chi-square test was used which showed that the difference was statistically nonsignificant. For groups A, B, and C, the success rate at follow-up came out to be 85.71%, 100%, and 78.57% at 12 months, respectively. The overall radiographic success rate of DPC at different time periods was 83.33% at three months and 88.09% at 12 months. A Chi-square test was used which showed that the difference was statistically nonsignificant. For groups A, B, and C, the success rate at follow-up came out to be 85.71%, 100%, and 78.57% at 12 months, respectively. Conclusion Resin-based calcium-silicate agent (TheraCal LC) showed good efficacy and can be used in practice with the predictability of a good success rate both clinically and radiographically. Thus, TheraCal LC can be utilized as an alternative to MTA or Biodentine in clinical practice, with the predictability of similar successful outcomes in patients with pulpal exposure in the posterior teeth.

Abstract
Fluoride has performed a central role in the growth over the last fifty years. This report examines the present state of knowledge about fluoride's involvement in preventing dental caries. In recent years, our knowledge of the development of dental caries and the manner of operation of fluoride has been shifted. Dental caries is a constant procedure for enamel demineralization and remineralization, and fluoride plays an important part in this action by acting at the plaque-enamel contact. Fluoride's major method of action is now recognized as posteruptive. Fluoride's post-eruptive activity has led to the development of novel fluoride delivery systems. The importance of various fluoride delivery techniques on a population and societal level is discussed, along with suggestions.

Abstract
In the field of restorative dentistry, composite resins have emerged as the most utilized materials. They revolutionized the cosmetic approach to anterior tooth treatment since their introduction to dental practice. In cases where one or more of the tooth's walls are absent, matrices are employed to assist in the creation of the proper anatomic contour and proximal contacts without the occurrence of gingival overhangs. Matrices come in a variety of designs suitable for various therapeutic conditions. Depending on the level of tooth destruction, they might range from a simple metal or plastic strip to a circumferential ring of metal surrounding the entire crown. Although the handling characteristics of modern composites have significantly improved, dentists still encounter challenges with the development of good interproximal contact and proper anatomical contour. The utilization of an anterior matrix system can be paramount in achieving these objectives.

Abstract
The commercially available protein-digesting enzyme bromelain is derived from the pineapple fruit or stem. Bromelain from fruit and stems are produced in different ways and has varied enzyme compositions. “Bromelain” often refers to the "stem bromelain". Bromelain is a combination of several thiol endopeptidases and others including various protease inhibitors, glucosidase, cellulase, phosphatase, peroxidase, and escharase. Studies conducted in both the lab and on animals show that bromelain has a variety of fibrinolytic, anti-edematous, antithrombotic, and anti-inflammatory effects. The body can absorb bromelain to a significant extent without it ceasing its proteolytic activity or having any negative side effects. Numerous therapeutic advantages of bromelain include wound debridement, improved drug absorption, and the management of sinusitis, bronchitis, angina pectoris, surgical trauma, and thrombophlebitis. Additionally, it treats numerous cardiovascular conditions, diarrhoea, and osteoarthritis. Bromelain also encourages apoptotic cell death and exhibits some anti-cancerous properties. This review compiles the crucial traits, medical and dental uses of bromelain as well as its potential mechanism of action.

Abstract
Objective: The objective is to evaluate the efficacy of different desensitizing agents in the reduction of postoperative sensitivity after composite restoration. Materials and methods: Class I cavities were prepared in 39 patients by the same operator. The patients included in the study were between 20 and 45 years with vital pulp and a remaining dentin thickness of 1mm. Previously restored, nonvital and tooth with periodical changes were excluded. Patients were randomly assigned into three groups of 13 each - Group I (Control); Group II (Gluma desensitizer) and Group III (shield active desensitizer [SAD]). After the surface treatment, the teeth were restored with composite. The patients were assessed for postoperative sensitivity at 24 hours and one week with a visual analog scale (VAS). Statistical Analysis: Data were analyzed using SPSS v23 software. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA and post-hoc Tukey test. Results: Gluma and SAD on comparison with control group i.e. composite group showed statistical significance difference at day 1 (P-value 0.003), but on comparing the sensitivity after one week, there is no significant difference in sensitivity score between all three groups (P-value 0.073). There was no statistically significant difference between day 1 and one week when comparing Gluma desensitizer and SAD. Conclusion: The application of the desensitizer led to a statistically significant reduction in postoperative sensitivity on day 1 and a clinically significant reduction was observed at one week.

Abstract
Among the various types of dental trauma, crown-root fractures are one of the most challenging to treat and require a multidisciplinary approach. This paper reports a case of a complicated crown-root fracture of maxillary left central incisor with esthetic, functional complications. An 18-year-old male patient presented to the department immediately after suffering trauma with a complicated crown-root fracture on tooth 21. As per the treatment, the patient had undergone endodontic therapy followed by flap reflection. Post flap reflection, a glass fiber post was luted, and the fractured fragment was reattached. By this approach, in the same appointment, the cervical margin can be exposed with appropriate isolation followed by a reattachment procedure. Reattaching the fragment is a viable option as it can be done immediately, provides better esthetics, restores function, and is less complicated than the conventional approach. A good prognosis is dependent on patient cooperation with the understanding of the treatment limitations. The article discusses a successful case of complicated crown-root fracture treated with the reattachment of a tooth fragment. Eighteen months of clinical and radiographic evaluation revealed that the clinical protocol was effective, as the tooth was functional, asymptomatic, and esthetic.
