Thermal Conductivity of Different Colored Compomers [PDF]
Background Compomers are mostly used in primary dentition. The thermal conductivity properties of traditional or colored compomers have not been investigated in detail so far. The aim of this in vitro study was to assess and compare the thermal conductivities of traditional and colored compomers.

Sequencing from Compomers: The Puzzle
The board game FragmindTM poses the following problem: The player has to reconstruct an (unknown) string s over the alphabet $\Sigma$. To this end, the game reports the following information to the player, for every character $x \in \Sigma$: First, the string s is cleaved wherever the character x is found in s.

Evaluation of Streptococcus mutans biofilm formation on fluoride-releasing materials used as pit and fissure sealants. [PDF]
Abstract This in vitro study evaluated fluoride release and Streptococcus mutans biofilm formation on four types of dental sealants: a giomer, resin‐modified glass ionomer, compomer, and a fluoride‐free composite (control). Discs were prepared as per the manufacturers’ instructions, and they were placed in tubes containing ultrapure water.
