Periodontal dressing materials.

A detailed review of periodontal dressings is presented, covering physical, chemical and biological aspects. Areas requiring further research are outlined, particularly in the physico-chemical sphere; and some contra-indications to particular substances are described. It is concluded that there is a definite place for dressings, but that more knowledge is required before optimal properties can be developed.

Factors influencing the retention of dowels.

A technique for assessing the axial retention of dowels has been developed. This method uses whalebone instead of extracted teeth. Threaded dowels appear to have better resistance to axial displacement than other types. Resistance of threaded dowels to torsional forces can be significantly improved by a rotation lock technique.
