Exploring Toothbrushing Duration Among Adults: A Systematic Review. [PDF]

Int J Dent Hyg
ABSTRACT Aim There is a need for greater understanding of the average brushing time among individuals. Since the average brushing time remains unclear, this study involves a systematic review to assess this aspect of oral hygiene practices and how it has evolved over the years. Material and Methods The PubMed‐MEDLINE and Cochrane‐CENTRAL databases were

Effects of gastric acid on surface roughness, microhardness, fracture strength, and color change of dental ceramics: A systematic review of in vitro studies

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This systematic review evaluated the effects of simulated gastric acid (SGA) on surface and mechanical properties of dental ceramics to answer the research question: Does immersion in SGA alter the surface roughness, microhardness, fracture strength, and color of dental ceramics?

Effectiveness of plasma‐enhanced chemical vapor film in surface treatments of resin‐matrix ceramics to preserve optical characteristics after different aging processes

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate the surface roughness and optical characteristics of three ceramics with resin matrix for computer‐aided design and computer‐aided manufacturing, after different surface treatment protocols associated or not with the application of film deposition by plasma‐enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD)

Effect of different cariostatic agents on the surface roughness and color change of CAD–CAM‐milled restorative materials: An in vitro comparative study

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the influence of different cariostatic agents: 38% silver diamine fluoride (SDF), 38% SDF + potassium iodide (RS), and nano silver fluoride (NSF) compared with distilled water (control), on the surface roughness and color change of CAD–CAM‐milled restorative materials: nanoceramic resin (NR), feldspathic ceramic (FC), and ...

Crawling under the radar: Two novel Paulinella species expand knowledge about the ecology and evolution of a primary plastid‐containing amoeba lineage

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The genus Paulinella represents a rare, independent case of primary endosymbiosis, providing a unique system to study the early stages of organelle evolution. Here, we expand current understanding of primary plastid endosymbiosis through the discovery and characterization of two novel photosynthetic amoebae, Paulinella marae sp. nov.

Soft Tissue Substitutes: Current Biomaterials and Indications at Teeth and Implant Sites

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This manuscript provides an updated overview of the current evidence on soft tissue graft substitutes for teeth and dental implants. When appropriately indicated, these biomaterials offer a reliable, less invasive alternative to autogenous grafts, effectively improving root coverage, keratinized mucosa width, and soft tissue thickness with reduced ...

Minimally Invasive (MINST) Versus Conventional Non‐Surgical Therapy for Residual Pockets in Patients With Periodontitis: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
MINST treatment was more effective in reducing median periodontal outcomes at 12‐month follow‐up than the conventional approach. Across 12‐months follow‐up, the overall PPD reduction was significantly influenced by a high number of cigarettes/day, erratic/non‐compliance supportive treatment, high no.

Periodontitis, Edentulism, and Risk of Metabolic Syndrome, Obesity, and Dyslipidemia: A Systematic Review With Meta‐Analyses

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
The aim of this SR was to investigate the risk of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its single components in individuals with or without periodontitis/edentulism. Within the limits of this SR, periodontitis was associated with one or more new MetS components and the association may be higher for severe periodontitis.

Short‐term changes in photographed dental calculus coverage and pooled supragingival microbiota after baked dental treats containing a pomegranate–propolis blend or sodium hexametaphosphate in dogs

Journal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Objectives To compare short‐term changes in the photographed percentage of visible tooth surface covered by pre‐existing dental calculus among dogs receiving additive‐free baked treats, sodium hexametaphosphate‐containing treats or pomegranate–propolis‐containing treats, and to describe pooled supragingival bacterial profiles before and after the ...
