Effect of chitosan‐containing desensitizers applied prior to bleaching on the physical properties of enamel

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract This in vitro study evaluated the effects of adding chitosan (Chi) to desensitizing agents applied before dental bleaching on enamel properties. Bovine enamel specimens were allocated to seven groups (n = 12): no treatment (negative control), 2% NaF (positive control), 2% NaF + 2% Chi, 2% NaF + 5% Chi, 2% NaF + 5% KNO3, 2% NaF + 5% KNO3 + 2 ...

Phosphomimetic statherin‐derived peptide protects against intrinsic enamel erosion independently of sodium trimetaphosphate

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract This in vitro study evaluated the effect of a phosphomimetic statherin‐derived peptide (DDSt15), alone or combined with sodium trimetaphosphate (TMP), on the protection against initial enamel erosion. A total of 102 bovine enamel samples (4 × 4 mm2) were prepared and randomly allocated into six groups (n = 17): deionized water (negative ...

Evaluation of antibacterial and remineralizing nanocomposite and adhesive in rat tooth cavity model [PDF]

Acta Biomaterialia, 2014
Antibacterial and remineralizing dental composites and adhesives were recently developed to inhibit biofilm acids and combat secondary caries. It is not clear what effect these materials will have on dental pulps in vivo. The objectives of this study were to investigate the antibacterial and remineralizing restorations in a rat tooth cavity model, and ...

Prevalence of Dental Caries in Persons With or Without Long‐Term Experience of Positive Airway Pressure‐Treated Obstructive Sleep Apnoea

International Journal of Dental Hygiene, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oral dryness is common in persons with untreated obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) as well as in those using positive airway pressure (PAP). OSA with or without PAP treatment could therefore be a risk factor of dental caries. Objectives To describe and compare the prevalence of dental caries among persons with or without PAP‐treated OSA.

Randomised Controlled Trials of Caries Care Protocols: A Scoping Review

International Journal of Dental Hygiene, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Caries care protocols (CCPs), commonly known as caries management systems, adopt a patient‐centred, hygiene‐focused approach to caries prevention. Although individual preventative strategies are well‐studied, evidence on their combined efficacy is limited.
