The comparative evaluation of the effects of quercetin, α‐tocopherol, and chlorhexidine dentin pretreatments on the durability of universal adhesives

Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1638-1644, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the effects of chlorhexidine, quercetin, and α‐tocopherol on the shear bond strength of universal adhesives in the short (24h) and long term (6 months). Material and Methods Ninety‐six extracted sound molars were collected and divided randomly into four groups: control (no treatment),

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

BMC 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 ...

Bayesian semiparametric inference for multivariate doubly-interval-censored data [PDF]

Annals of Applied Statistics 2010, Vol. 4, No. 4, 2126-2149, 2011
Based on a data set obtained in a dental longitudinal study, conducted in Flanders (Belgium), the joint time to caries distribution of permanent first molars was modeled as a function of covariates. This involves an analysis of multivariate continuous doubly-interval-censored data since: (i) the emergence time of a tooth and the time it experiences ...

Antibacterial effects of natural compounds on biofilm formation of Streptococcus mutans

Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1426-1433, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Streptococcus mutans is the main cariogenic pathogen in the oral cavity, considered to contribute toward oral diseases. S. mutans is predominantly entrapped in plaque biofilms. Objectives In this study, we surveyed the antibacterial activity of natural compounds in terms of the biofilm production of S. mutans. Material and Methods We extracted

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

Journal 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.
