Four hundred questionnaires were distributed among senior dental students of five dental schools in Saudi Arabia. Student&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;#39;s knowledge was assessed regarding which implant restoration [cement retained restoration (CRR) or screw retained restoration (SRR)] better provides the desired clinical properties.

Descriptive statistics and chi-square test were employed to assess collected data. Three hundred and fifty four senior dental students responded at a response rate of 88.5%. Thirty three percent respondents did not have any practical experience of IRR. Students showed a clear preference for CRR with regards to aesthetics (71.4%), passive fit (55.3%), fabrication ease (57.3%) and fracture resistance (40%). SRR were considered to provide better retention (59.6%), soft tissue health (51.1%) and ease of retrievability (72%). Nearly 40% of students agreed that they did not get sufficient information related to IRR in undergraduate courses. Clinical training of IRR is compromised in the undergraduate curriculum in dental schools of Saudi Arabia. The knowledge of dental students regarding IRR was broadly in line with current evidence.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="35353768"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="35353768"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 35353768; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=35353768]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=35353768]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 35353768; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='35353768']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 35353768, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=35353768]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":35353768,"title":"Knowledge and practice of implant-retained restorations among dental students in Saudi Arabia","translated_title":"","metadata":{"abstract":"The aim of the study was to assess the knowledge and practice of implant retained restorations (IRR) among senior dental students in Saudi Arabia.

Cathelicidins are present in humans and other mammals as well. By complex interactions with the microenvironment, it results in pro-inflammatory effects. Many in vitro and in vivo experiments have been conducted to ultimately conclude that these unique peptides play an essential role in innate immunity.

A remarkable increase in the applications of lasers for dental application is expected in the near future.","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/35353773/Applications_of_Light_Amplification_by_Stimulated_Emission_of_Radiation_Lasers_for_Restorative_Dentistry","translated_internal_url":"","created_at":"2017-12-06T00:53:21.843-08:00","preview_url":null,"current_user_can_edit":null,"current_user_is_owner":null,"owner_id":3405290,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"document_type":"paper","co_author_tags":[{"id":30745291,"work_id":35353773,"tagging_user_id":3405290,"tagged_user_id":777753,"co_author_invite_id":null,"email":"s***l@gmail.com","display_order":0,"name":"Syed Ajlal","title":"Applications of Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation (Lasers) for Restorative Dentistry"},{"id":30745297,"work_id":35353773,"tagging_user_id":3405290,"tagged_user_id":46918519,"co_author_invite_id":null,"email":"s***b@gmail.com","display_order":4194304,"name":"Shariq Najeeb","title":"Applications of Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation (Lasers) for Restorative Dentistry"},{"id":30745302,"work_id":35353773,"tagging_user_id":3405290,"tagged_user_id":771588,"co_author_invite_id":null,"email":"d***d@gmail.com","affiliation":"King Faisal University","display_order":6291456,"name":"Zohaib Khurshid","title":"Applications of Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation (Lasers) for Restorative Dentistry"}],"downloadable_attachments":[],"slug":"Applications_of_Light_Amplification_by_Stimulated_Emission_of_Radiation_Lasers_for_Restorative_Dentistry","translated_slug":"","page_count":null,"language":"en","content_type":"Work","owner":{"id":3405290,"first_name":"M S","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Zafar","page_name":"SohailZafar","domain_name":"taibahu","created_at":"2013-03-02T17:54:56.169-08:00","display_name":"M S Zafar","url":"https://taibahu.academia.edu/SohailZafar"},"attachments":[],"research_interests":[{"id":105826,"name":"Dental Caries","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Dental_Caries"},{"id":372652,"name":"Endodontics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Endodontics"},{"id":385888,"name":"Composite resins","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Composite_resins"},{"id":410370,"name":"Public health systems and services research","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_health_systems_and_services_research-1"},{"id":460006,"name":"Polyurethanes","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Polyurethanes"},{"id":574192,"name":"Dental Prosthesis","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Dental_Prosthesis"},{"id":604754,"name":"Acrylic Resins","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Acrylic_Resins"},{"id":627246,"name":"Tooth Bleaching","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Tooth_Bleaching"},{"id":685030,"name":"Low Level Light Therapy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Low_Level_Light_Therapy"},{"id":1402159,"name":"Pulpotomy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Pulpotomy"}],"urls":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData });

The root canals have complex morphology and wide individual variations. The objective of this study was to analyze root canals morphology and existence of extra canals in maxillary molars in Saudi subpopulation. Freshly extracted maxillary first molars (n=100) were included in this study. All teeth were examined for morphology of roots, root canals and apical foramen by Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT). The root canals configuration was classified using Vertucci&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;#39;s classification. The majority of maxillary first molars (94%) were having three distinctly separated roots and 6% had four roots. Palatal and distobuccal roots were observed to contain one root canal (100%) and Vertucci&amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;#39;s type I configuration. The mesiobuccal root had one (29.4%; type I) or two canals (70.6%; type II, III or IV).

The aim of this study was to analyze deciduous incisors enamel and dentin for elastic modulus and hardness. In addition, retained deciduous incisors were assessed to compare properties with exfoliated teeth. Deciduous mandibular incisors either exfoliated at physiological age or retained were included in this study. Samples were prepared by dissecting teeth in transverse sections and surfaces under investigation were prepared and polished for nanoindentation. Nanoindentation was performed at multiple sites using Hysitron [TI 725 Ubi] testing instrument.
