Item Effective Debridement And Subsequent Obturation Of Tooth With Morphoanatomic Variations In Non Syndromic Patients– A Series Of 3 Case Reports(World Wide Journals, 2018-10) Ali, Afzal; Ratnakar, P; Prahlad, Saraf; Sharma, AnkitaTaurodontism is a morphoanatomical anomaly of teeth characterised by enlarged pulp chamber with apically displaced pulp chamber floor and furcation.Endodontic treatment of a taurodont is challenging and requires special handling because of proximity and apical displacement of roots. In performing root canal treatment on such teeth, one should appreciate the complexity of the root canal system, canal obliteration and configuration, and the potential for additional root canal systems. Careful exploration of the grooves between all orifices particularly with magnification, use of ultrasonic irrigation; and a modified filling technique are of particular use. This paper presents three case reports on diagnosis and successful endodontic management of hypertaurodontic teeth, in non-syndromic patientsItem A Novel Approach of Ayurveda Towards the Understanding of Shookdhanya Varga (Cereals) and Their Fundamental Characteristics and Health Benefits: A Critical Study(Mahadev Publications, 2022-04) Sharma, Ankita; Shinde, Yogesh. B.; Sirigoud, Lekhani S.; Shirke, Urmila; Yadav, JyotsnaIn order to achieve the healthy life, it is important to follow the first principal of Ayurveda which is Ahara (diet). The importance of Ahara in life is described by Acharaya charak in classical texts, where every aspect of Ahara including its regular intake, different categories has been elaborated aptly. In Charak samhita, Acharya has classified the Ahara in 12 different categories. Among these, Shookdhanya (cereals) is first one. Shashtika (rice) Vrihi (rice), Yava (barley), Godhum (wheat) are categorized under Shookdhanya (cereals). The food of these groups has similar pharmacological properties with Madhur rasa (sweet in taste), Madhur vipak (sweet after digestion) and Vata kaphahar action. According to modern science Shook dhanya dravya are included in monocotyledon and energy giving food. Energy giving food mainly includes cereal groups like wheat, rice, maize (corn), oats, Jowar, Ragi, and Bajra. Here an attempt has been made to study the fundamental characteristics and health benefits of the class of cereals (Shookadhanya group of Ahara).Item A Novel Approach of Ayurveda Towards Understanding the Fundamental Characteristics and Health Benefits of Various Types of Takras (Buttermilk)(Mahadev Publications, 2022-04) Sirigoud, Lekhani S.; Shinde, Yogesh.
