Dental caries in primary and permanent teeth in children’s worldwide, 1995 to 2019: a systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesHead & Face Medicine, 2020
Background Early childhood caries (ECC) is a type of dental caries in the teeth of infants and children that is represented as one of the most prevalent dental problems in this period. Various studies have reported different types of prevalence of dental

Does a social/behavioural gradient in dental health exist among adults? A cross-sectional study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objective To explore the potential presence of a social/behavioural gradient in dental health among Italian adults using a cross-sectional study. Methods Caries indices were recorded among 480 subjects (52.9% men, 47.1% women) who also completed a ...

How probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics, and postbiotics prevent dental caries: an oral microbiota perspective

open access: yesnpj Biofilms and Microbiomes
Dental caries, a highly prevalent oral disease, impacts a significant portion of the global population. Conventional approaches that indiscriminately eradicate microbes disrupt the natural equilibrium of the oral microbiota.

Microbial Etiology and Prevention of Dental Caries: Exploiting Natural Products to Inhibit Cariogenic Biofilms

open access: yesPathogens, 2020
Dental caries is one of the most common microbe-mediated oral diseases in human beings. At present, the accepted etiology of caries is based on a four-factor theory that includes oral microorganisms, oral environment, host, and time.

Spatial mapping of polymicrobial communities reveals a precise biogeography associated with human dental caries

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020
Significance Dental caries remains an unresolved public health problem. The etiology is poorly understood, as the oral cavity harbors diverse communities of microorganisms.

Effect of a silicon-based sealing agent (GapSeal) on the reverse torque value of the abutment–implant screw [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Dental Materials and Techniques
Objective: One major cause of dental implant failure is screw loosening. Silicone sealants have been introduced to reduce the gap between abutments and implants, potentially reducing screw loosening.

Application of Antibiotics/Antimicrobial Agents on Dental Caries

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2020
Dental caries is the most common oral disease. The bacteriological aetiology of dental caries promotes the use of antibiotics or antimicrobial agents to prevent this type of oral infectious disease.

Tailoring the Properties of Functional Materials With N‐Oxides

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The properties of materials bearing N‐oxide groups are often dominated by the polar N+─O− bond. It provides hydrophilicity, selective ion‐binding, electric conductivity, or antifouling properties. Many of the underlying mechanisms have only recently been discovered, and the interest in N‐oxide materials is rapidly growing.

The association between genetic variants in lactotransferrin and dental caries: a meta- and gene-based analysis

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2020
Background The pathogenesis of dental caries remains unclear, with increasing evidence suggesting that genetic susceptibility plays an essential role. Previous studies have reported the association between genetic polymorphisms in lactotransferrin (LTF ...
