Development of physics-based compositional parameters for predicting the reactivity of amorphous aluminosilicates in alkaline environments [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
The reactivity of amorphous aluminosilicates in alkaline environments is important to many applications, including blended Portland cements and alkali-activated materials (AAMs). Here, two physics-based compositional parameters are derived to describe the relative reactivity of CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 and CaO-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2 glasses in alkaline environments: (i)

Randomized clinical trial evaluating kinetic benefits of desensitizing agents: Magnitude, onset, and stability of relief

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dentin hypersensitivity (DH) is common, particularly among periodontal patients. This trial evaluated magnitude of desensitizing benefit, onset of action, and complete relief of three dentifrices with distinct desensitizing technologies.

Analysis of PM2.5 Morphology, Composition and Health Risk in a Multi‐Chair Dental Clinic

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter ≤ 2.5 μm (PM2.5) at high concentrations in dental clinics poses significant health risks to healthcare professionals. However, the morphology and chemical composition of PM2.5 in specific environments are not yet fully elucidated.

The glassy structure of reactive supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) and recycled glass: Contribution of XRD and Raman spectroscopy to their characterization [PDF]

Cement and Concrete Research, 2024, 179, pp.107468
This study compares thirteen natural and industrial samples of supplementary or emerging supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs): slag, fly ashes, pozzolan, obsidian, silica fume, and recycled glass. These materials are used or are under consideration for decarbonization in cement plants.

Association of macroscopic laboratory testing and micromechanics modelling for the evaluation of the poroelastic parameters of a hardened cement paste [PDF]

Cement and Concrete Research 40, 8 (2010) 1197-1210, 2010
The results of a macro-scale experimental study performed on a hardened class G cement paste [Ghabezloo et al. (2008) Cem. Con. Res. (38) 1424-1437] are used in association with the micromechanics modelling and homogenization technique for evaluation of the complete set of poroelastic parameters of the material.

The current attitudes and practices of dentists in Australia towards composite repair: A cross‐sectional survey study

Australian Dental Journal, Volume 70, Issue 1, Page 49-57, March 2025.
Abstract Background Whether to replace or repair a composite restoration is controversial and varies among clinicians. This study was designed to collect information on the attitudes and practices of Australian dentists towards composite repair. Methods An electronic 16‐item questionnaire was distributed online on Australian clinicians’ dental forum ...

Predicted field-induced hexatic structure in an ionomer membrane [PDF]

, 2008
Coarse-grained molecular-dynamics simulations were used to study the morphological changes induced in a Nafion$^{\tiny \textregistered}$-like ionomer by the imposition of a strong electric field. We observe the formation of novel structures aligned along the direction of the applied field.

Cost‐effectiveness of atraumatic restorative treatment combined with the Hall Technique for managing dental caries in remote Indigenous children

Australian Dental Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Indigenous children in remote Australia face significant disparities in oral health and have limited access to dental care. This study evaluated the cost‐effectiveness of Atraumatic Restorative Treatment combined with the Hall Technique (ART‐HT) compared to usual care.
