“…Various studies on triple antibiotic paste have demonstrated successful elimination of microbial pathogens [6][7][8]16]. Windley et al, assessed the efficacy of a triple antibiotic paste in the disinfection of immature dog teeth with apical periodontitis [16].…”

“…Even though there are studies available regarding the antibacterial efficacy of individual antibiotics as an endodontic irrigant, there are no studies existing in the literature regarding the use and efficacy of the combination of tetracycline, ciprofloxacin and ornidazole as an endodontic irrigant but some studies have used antibiotics in paste form as an intracanal medicament [6][7][8]. Hence, this study was undertaken to suggest triple antibiotic solution containing tetracycline, ornidazole and ciprofloxacin as a new endodontic irrigant that may possess superior antibacterial activity in comparison with chlorhexidine solution.…”

“…observed the clinical and radiographic evolution of the healing of large periapical lesions following three treatments, namely aPDT, triple antibiotic paste, and calcium hydroxide. In their conclusions, the authors report that aPDT was a more effective intracanal disinfectant at 6‐, 12‐, and 18‐month follow‐up (Johns et al., ). All these studies together indicate the effectiveness of aPDT in improving endodontic therapy success rates and should be pursued in future studies.…”

This narrative review on the use of biophotonics therapies for management of oral diseases is written as a tribute to Prof. Crispian Scully. His seminal contributions to the field are highlighted by the detailed, comprehensive description of clinical presentations of oral diseases. This has enabled a more thorough, fundamental understanding of many of these pathologies by research from his group as well as inspired mechanistic investigations in many groups globally. In the same vein, a major emphasis of this narrative review is to focus on the evidence from human case reports rather than in vitro or in vivo animal studies that showcases the growing and broad impact of biophotonics therapies. The similarities and differences between two distinct forms of low-dose biophotonics treatments namely photodynamic therapy and photobiomodulation therapy are discussed. As evident in this review, a majority of these reports provide promising evidence for their clinical efficacy. However, a lack of adequate technical details, precise biological rationale, and limited outcome measures limits the current utility of these treatments. Future investigations should attempt to address these shortcomings and develop better designed, rigorous, controlled studies to fully harness the tremendous potential of low-dose biophotonics therapies.

“…A similar study was carried out by Dexton et al [23] and the three treatments they compared are Photo Activated Disinfection(PAD), triple antibiotic paste and the calcium hydroxide where all three were used as root canal disinfectant. Moreover, in their study they have found that there is a significant change between calcium hydroxide and PAD using Kruskal-Wallis Test and Bonferroni post hoc test.…”

Aim:The aim of this study is to evaluate the agreement between three routinely used non-surgical management techniques for large periapical lesions namely the treatments with Calcium hydroxide, Mineralo-Trioxide Aggregate and Bio-dentine. Methods: Data was collected from 60 patients at the Department of Restorative Dentistry, Faculty of Dental Sciences, University of Peradeniya. The variables age, gender and area of the infected region before and after the treatment and the treatment type were considered. Two homoscedastic and heteroscedastic Mixed-effects models were fitted and the agreement between three treatments were assessed using Concordance Correlation Coefficient (CCC) and Total Deviation Index (TDI). Results: CCC value calculated for treatment types 1 & 2, 1 & 3 and 2 & 3 are (0.905, 0.909, 0.874) for homoscedastic model and (0.989, 0.990, 0.975) for heteroscedastic model. Further, corresponding TDI values for homoscedastic and heteroscedastic models are (3.148, 4.390, 1.647) and (2.963, 4.388, 1.457) respectively.Conclusions: Since all the CCC values are close to 1 and TDI values are low, there is a strong agreement between all three treatments and hence they be used interchangeably. Moreover, the agreement between Lakmali et al.; AJPAS, 5(1): 1-11, 2019; Article no.AJPAS.50952 2 Treatments with Calcium hydroxide and Bio-dentine is higher compared to the agreements between the other treatments. (i.e., Calcium hydroxide with Mineralo-Trioxide Aggregate and Biodentine with Mineralo-Trioxide Aggregate). Original Research Article
