Smart and bioactive dental biomaterials can do more than replace tissue, but getting them into the clinic requires more than promising lab results. This review brings together practical requirements for translation, covering ISO‐based biocompatibility planning, low‐temperature sterilisation for sensitive materials, life‐cycle assessment for ...

Long‐Term Fluoride Exchanges at Restoration Surfaces and Effects on Surface Mechanical Properties
Aim. The aim of the study was to determine whether three fluoride containing resin composites could maintain fluoride release, fluoride recharge, and mechanical stability over long‐term (18‐month) aging. Materials and Methods. Fluoride containing composites Beautifil II, Gradia Direct X, Tetric EvoCeram, and glass ionomer Fuji IX Extra were analyzed ...

Compressive Strength, Fluoride Release and Recharge of Giomer
Current restorative materials with high fluoride release generally have lower mechanical properties. Therefore they may not be as durable clinically as lower fluoride release materials, particularly in load bearing areas. The aim of the present study is to explore the fluoride release and recharging ability as well as its compressive strength of the ...

SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF NOVEL GIOMERS FOR DENTAL APPLICATIONS
The aim of the present work was to prepare and characterize a series of dental giomers and their corresponding dental adhesive and to evaluate the adhesion of the new materials at the restoration/tooth interface. The experimental giomers were prepared as monopastes by blending the resin matrices, a new pre-reacted glass, a radiopaque glass and ...

Aging and Staining Effects on Optical Properties of Flowable Composites
ABSTRACT Resin composites have become the preferred restorative material in modern dentistry due to their superior esthetics, improved physical properties, and advancements in curing technologies. To enhance their clinical performance, manufacturers continuously refine the resin matrix and optimize filler particle size and shape, improving both ...

Background: Nearly a decade since the Minamata Convention on Mercury, the progress on the phase‐down of dental amalgam is unclear. Regional and national governments were tasked to develop guidelines and phase‐down plans because of variations in oral health statuses and usage of restorative materials.

Effect of two different tooth bleaching techniques on microhardness of giomer
Tooth bleaching is a safe and conservative treatment modality to improve the esthetic appearance of discolored teeth. One of the problems with the use of bleaching agents is their possible effect on surface microhardness of resin-based materials. The present study was carried out to evaluate the effect of in-office and at-home bleaching on surface ...
