A Simplified Technique for the Fabrication of Esthetic and Functional Space Maintainers in Pediatric Dentistry

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Premature loss of primary molars remains a frequent clinical problem in pediatric dentistry and may lead to space loss, occlusal disturbances, and the need for future orthodontic intervention. Conventional space maintainers, such as the band‐and‐loop appliance, are effective in preserving arch length but do not restore occlusal ...

Effects of Bleaching Protocols on the Esthetic Outcome and Surface Integrity of Enamel Treated With an Ammonia‐Free Silver Fluoride Solution

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the effects of three bleaching protocols on the color stability and surface roughness of enamel previously treated with a water‐based, ammonia‐free silver fluoride solution (Riva Star Aqua). Materials and Methods Eighty‐eight human enamel/dentin specimens were demineralized and treated with Riva Star Aqua, divided into

Diagnostic Accuracy of Dentin Sclerosis by Optical Coherence Tomography and the North Carolina Index in Noncarious Cervical Lesions

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of optical coherence tomography (OCT) and the North Carolina Index (NCI) for identifying dentin type (sclerotic vs. nonsclerotic) in natural noncarious cervical lesions (NCCLs). Materials and Methods Thirty extracted human premolars with 30 NCCLs (90 regions of interest) were analyzed. Two blinded,

Impact of Anterior Lithium Disilicate Cantilever Resin‐Bonded Fixed Dental Prostheses on Oral Health‐Related Quality of Life and Esthetic Outcomes

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the impact of lithium disilicate cantilever resin‐bonded fixed dental prostheses (RBFDPs) on oral health‐related quality of life (OHRQoL), patient satisfaction, and esthetic outcomes in patients with a missing maxillary incisor.

Load‐To‐Failure of Cantilevered Provisional Implant‐Supported Prostheses: Conventional Versus 3D‐Printed Resins

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Cantilever extensions in full‐arch implant‐supported provisional prostheses represent a clinical challenge frequently associated with biomechanical complications. This study aimed to evaluate the load‐to‐failure and deflection of acrylic and 3D‐printed resins used in the cantilever region of implant‐supported provisional prostheses ...

One‐Year Color Stability of a Reduced 37.5% Hydrogen Peroxide In‐Office Bleaching Protocol: A Randomized Clinical Trial

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This randomized clinical trial evaluated the one‐year color stability and patient satisfaction regarding dental esthetic improvement after 37.5% hydrogen peroxide (37.5HP) in‐office bleaching with a reduced application protocol. Materials and Methods Forty participants with a shade mean C2 or darker were randomly allocated into two ...

The Spot‐Dam Technique: A Protocol for Adhesive Cementation of BOPT Crowns

open access: yesJournal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The Biologically Oriented Preparation Technique (BOPT) uses vertical tooth preparation without a defined finish line, guided by provisional restorations to shape the gingival emergence profile. Subgingival crown margins inherent to BOPT increase the risk of residual cement and soft‐tissue trauma during adhesive cementation.

Occlusal Sensitivity to Articulating Foils in Patients With Temporomandibular Disorders and Healthy Controls

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Using articulating foils of varying thickness, occlusal tactile acuity was compared between patients with chronic painful temporomandibular disorders (TMDp) and healthy controls. TMDp patients showed enhanced detection of thinner foils and greater perceptual sensitivity, accompanied by a more liberal decision strategy, whereas higher frequencies of ...
