ABSTRACT Background Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) arrests caries, partly by inhibiting matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Potassium iodide (KI) is often applied after SDF to mitigate tooth darkening. Aim This in vitro study evaluated the effects of application time and potassium iodide on SDF‐mediated MMP inhibition, and assessed surface microhardness ...

Modified Titanium Dental Implants: The Current Progress of Soft‐Tissue Integration Methods
Dental implants are an established solution for tooth loss, yet achieving soft tissue integration (STI) around the transmucosal region remains a challenge. The natural tooth–gingiva interface is poorly replicated on titanium implants. This review explores surface modification strategies, ranging from surface chemistry and topography to biological ...

Effect of Root Canal Dressings on Extraradicular pH in a Sealed Apex Model: An In Vitro Study
ABSTRACT Objectives Endodontic treatment is mandatory after severe dental trauma such as avulsion or intrusion. Initial intracanal dressing with calcium hydroxide should be avoided according to international guidelines due to potential periodontal ligament damage by pH elevation.
