Treatment of the young permanent tooth with a necrotic root canal system and an incompletely developed root is very difficult and challenging. Few acceptable results have been achieved through apexification but use of longterm calcium hydroxide might alter the mechanical properties of dentin. Thus, one alternative approach is to develop and restore a functional pulp-dentin complex. Procedures attempting to preserve the potentially remaining dental pulp stem cells and mesenchymal stem cells of the apical papilla can result in canal revascularization and the completion of root maturation. There are several advantages of promoting apexogenesis in immature teeth with open apices. It encourages a longer and thicker root to develop thus decreasing the propensity of long term root fracture. So, the present article reviews the recent approach of regeneration of pulp-dentin complex in immature permanent teeth.

Anything that can significantly improve the accuracy of diagnosis, the cause of abnormal uterine bleeding in peri-menopausal and postmenopausal women can reduce the frequency of hysterectomy as a cure. Abnormal uterine bleeding has become more important on 2nd half of twentieth century, because women are experiencing more menstrual cycles during their reproductive life.
AIMTo evaluate intrauterine abnormalities in symptomatic peri and postmenopausal bleeding by transvaginal ultrasonography and hysteroscopy.
METHODThis prospective study was carried out on 60 patients with peri and postmenopausal bleeding attending Gynaecology OPD at Batra Hospital.
RESULTHysteroscopy has higher sensitivity for diagnosing endometrial abnormalities compared to TVS.
Intrusion of single anterior tooth done by fixed orthodontic appliance is a tedious procedure for orthodontist as well as for the patient which may be quite expensive and time consuming. The use of a new modified removable orthodontic appliance is illustrated in two case reports in this article which is especially beneficial for such cases. This removable appliance is comprised of a labial bow of 21 gauge stainless steel wire with soldered high labial bow of 19 gauge stainless steel wire which has a soldered hook permitting the use of elastic. Adams clasp and pinhead clasps are used for retention of the appliance. During intrusive force application, one component is for intrusion of tooth and other component is for labial movement. This appliance is fabricated in such a manner that the labial movement is prevented by labial component of wire and is converted into pure intrusive force as much as possible. Force levels used for tooth movement are kept within physiologic limits while using this appliance. A though, this appliance is advantageous over fixed orthodontics due its simpler and quicker chair-side procedure and low cost of treatment associated with patient comfort, patient co-operation is must for the success of this therapy.

BACKGROUNDAims and Objectives-1. To correlate the findings in women with unhealthy cervix by cytology, colposcopy and colposcopic directed biopsies; 2. To assess the utility of colposcopy in detecting the premalignant and malignant lesions of the cervix.
