Bio‐Tribocorrosion of Titanium Dental Implants and Its Toxicological Implications: A Scoping Review

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Bio‐tribocorrosion is a phenomenon that combines the essentials of tribology (friction, wear, and lubrication) and corrosion with microbiological processes. Lately, it has gained attention in implant dentistry because dental implants are exposed to wear, friction, and biofilm formation in the corrosive oral environment.

Efficacy of a Novel Bioactive Glass‐Polymer Composite for Enamel Remineralization following Erosive Challenge

open access: yesInternational Journal of Dentistry, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Introduction. Dental caries is the most common cause of tooth loss. However, it can be stopped by enhancing remineralization. Fluoride and casein phosphopeptide‐amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP‐ACP) are among the most important remineralizing agents. Recent studies have used bioactive glass as a remineralizing agent in different forms. This study aimed

Exploration of the Antimicrobial Synergy between Selected Natural Substances on Streptococcus mutans to Identify Candidates for the Control of Dental Caries

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2022
Dental caries is caused by the buildup of acidic end products that result from the metabolism of dental plaque microbes. Natural products that are widely available could be used as an alternative or adjunctive anti-caries therapy.

Influences of naturally occurring agents in combination with fluoride on gene expression and structural organization of Streptococcus mutans in biofilms

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2009
Background The association of specific bioactive flavonoids and terpenoids with fluoride can modulate the development of cariogenic biofilms by simultaneously affecting the synthesis of exopolysaccharides (EPS) and acid production by Streptococcus mutans,

Comparative Effects of At-Home and In-Office Bleaching on Discoloration Due to Treatment of White Spot Lesions With Silver Diamine Fluoride. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Dent
Objectives Incipient enamel caries, known as white spot lesions (WSLs), can be prevented or halted with proper oral hygiene, diet control, and application of remineralizing agents such as silver diamine fluoride (SDF); however, dark staining is a major drawback of SDF.
