Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Quantitative collagen and proteoglycan imaging reveal organic layering, gradients and regional texture in young mature dental cementum

VIEW, EarlyView.
Cementum, the mineralized tissue covering all mammalian tooth roots, helps maintain tooth stability, but its internal organization is still poorly understood. In this study, we combine quantitative histologial methods to map the regional distributions of collagen fibers and proteoglycan‐rich matrix layers in porcine cementum.

From Model to Practice: Testing Near‐Infrared Spectroscopy as a Bone Collagen Prescreening Tool

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Collagen is a vital archaeological material, preserving biochemical signatures that provide insights into past environments, diets, and human–animal interactions. However, diagenetic processes can lead to rapid and often inconspicuous degradation of collagen. Given the variability in collagen preservation and its significance for analyses such

Influence of rubbing during etching on surface roughness and interfacial characteristics of intact enamel

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Rubbing phosphoric acid during etching has been shown to improve surface roughness in prepared enamel. This study aimed to compare intact enamel's surface roughness and resin tag lengths after etching with and without rubbing. Extracted sound third molars were used for testing, mesially for conventional and distally for dynamic (rubbing ...

Influence of carbonate apatite nanoparticles incorporated into commercial dental adhesives on immediate and long‐term microtensile bond strength

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract This study assessed whether integrating carbonate apatite nanoparticles with a CO3/PO4 molar ratio of 5 (CA5n) into commercial adhesives affected the immediate or the long‐term microtensile bond strength (µTBS) between composite resin and dentin.

6‐Month Clinical Evaluation of Reduced Dentin Etching Time Using Universal Adhesives in Noncarious Cervical Lesions: A Double‐Blind Randomized Clinical Trial

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate the effect of reduced dentin etching time on the clinical performance of two universal adhesive systems in noncarious cervical lesions (NCCLs). Methods A total of 144 NCCLs restorations were randomly placed in 36 participants according to four experimental groups: SUP5 (Scotchbond Universal Plus adhesive [pH ≈2.5–2.7 ...

Effect of Silane Incorporation on the Bonding Performance of Universal Adhesives to Dentin

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose The effect of silane in universal adhesives (UAs) on dentin adhesion remains unclear. Therefore, this study evaluated the dentin bonding of UAs with and without silane immediately and after thermocycling. Materials and Methods Sixty‐four sound human molars were randomly assigned to eight groups according to silane incorporation (UAs ...
