Elemental changes in tooth hard tissues during demineralization and fluoride-induced remineralization: an SEM-EDX study

Acta Biochimica Polonica
BackgroundTooth enamel and dentin are the most highly mineralized tissues in the human body, and their structural stability depends on the balanced content of calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P), and fluoride (F).

Demineralization Depth Using QLF and a Novel Image Processing Software

International Journal of Dentistry, 2010
Quantitative Light-Induced fluorescence (QLF) has been widely used to detect tooth demineralization indicated by fluorescence loss with respect to surrounding sound enamel. The correlation between fluorescence loss and demineralization depth is not fully

Trace Element Patterns in Juvenile Wild Chimpanzee Dentitions

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trace elements are used to infer mammalian early‐life diets, environmental toxins, dispersal patterns, stress histories, and weaning ages. Here, we employ laser ablation‐inductively coupled plasma‐mass spectrometry (LA‐ICP‐MS) to reveal elemental patterns in our closest living relatives, chimpanzees.

Mechanical plaque removal in step‐1 of care

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Maintaining a regular oral hygiene routine is essential for taking care of our mouths, ensuring healthy teeth, and achieving fresh breath. Patient education on oral hygiene is an important component of their overall treatment. Firstly, patients should be informed about the direct connection between bacteria in dental plaque and oral diseases ...

Autogenous fresh demineralized tooth graft prepared at chairside for dental implant [PDF]

Maxillofacial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2015
This study aimed to evaluate the clinical usefulness of autogenous fresh demineralized tooth (auto-FDT) graft prepared at the chairside for alveolar bone grafting during dental implant surgery.In total, 38 patients requiring both tooth extraction (for endodontic or periodontal reasons or third molar extraction) and alveolar bone regeneration for dental

Adhesion of Newly Developed Composite Resin Splinting Materials to Enamel: Effect of Enamel Surface Treatment

Dental Traumatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Aim To evaluate the shear bond strength (SBS) of newly developed composite resin materials intended for dental splinting to enamel and to determine whether phosphoric acid etching alone provides reliable adhesion. Material and Methods Four experimental materials (G‐Fix, Light Fix, Ortho Connect, and Ortho Connect Flow) were compared

Imaging early demineralization on tooth occlusional surfaces with a high definition InGaAs camera [PDF]

SPIE Proceedings, 2013
In vivo and in vitro studies have shown that high contrast images of tooth demineralization can be acquired in the near-IR due to the high transparency of dental enamel. The purpose of this study is to compare the lesion contrast in reflectance at near-IR wavelengths coincident with high water absorption with those in the visible, the near-IR at 1300 ...

The Effect of Dental Education on Students' Oral and Dental Health Attitudes and Behaviours

European Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The attitudes of dental students, expected to serve as role models for patients, have the potential to enhance their oral health. Therefore, it is essential to reinforce students' oral care attitudes throughout dental education.
