Abstract

Background of the Study: Oral health care professionals must be able to identify various cardiac diseasesand its associated post-operative dental emergencies to adopt the appropriate measures to treat themefficiently and effectively. A comprehensive dental treatment plan should be constructed keeping in view allthe possible complications related to the post-operative cardio-thoracic surgical factors.Aim: This study was aimed to determine the knowledge, attitude and awareness towards dental treatmentand their management following Cardio-thoracic surgeries among the dental students at undergraduate andpostgraduate level.Methodology: A cross sectional survey was conducted using self-administered questionnaires, throughGoogle forms among 100 dental students from Tamil Nadu India. Statistics has been done and results aretabulated.Results: The overall knowledge towards various cardio-thoracic surgical procedures carried out and theirdental management among dental students was only 65% and 45% for postgraduates and interns grouprespectively.Conclusion: The present study showed lack of awareness with limited knowledge and attitude towardsvarious cardiac-thoracic surgical procedures carried out and their corresponding dental management amongthe dental students especially at the undergraduate level. Hence enlightening and educating the students onseveral post-surgical management phases at the undergraduate level is essential for effective and efficienttreatment outcome and increase the quality of life.

Abstract

Mesenchymal stem cells are isolated from multiple tissues, such as bone marrow, peripheral blood,umbilical cord blood, adult connective tissue, dental tissues, placenta, and amniotic membrane. Oralderived mesenchymal stem cells (OMSC’s) are multipotent cells, though differentiates into odontoblast,cementoblast, osteoblast, chondrocyte, adipocyte, melanocyte, endothelial cell hepatocyte, myoblast andneural cell but shows limited differentiating into only these specific types of cells or mesenchymal origincells. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC’s) are the potential stem cells induced through reprogrammingsuch somatic cells genetically by presenting with distinct or causative factors. Growth factors and signallingmolecules have the capacity to induce cellular proliferation and cellular differentiation. Addition oftranscription factors to a population of differentiated cells does not promise reprogramming of the potentialstem cells. Furthermore, ethical issues related with the development of embryonic stem cells (ESC’s) do notapply to iPSCs, which offer a non-controversial strategy to create patient-specific stem cell lines. Hence thepresent review article was aimed to briefly describe numerous oral mesenchymal stem cells (OMSC’s) androle of Induced potential pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) in the regenerative medicine and dentistry with afocus on various iPSCs reprogramming techniques in the current scenario.
