THE ETIOLOGY OF NONCARIOUS CERVICAL LESIONS: A NEW CHALLENGE FOR THE 21ST CENTURY DENTIST
The term noncarious cervical lesions (NCCL) refers to the loss of hard tooth tissue at the Cemento-Enamel Junction (CEJ), whose etiology is not related to bacterial involvement. The origin and progression of these cervical defects are considered

Time domain add-drop multiplexing scheme enhanced using a saw-tooth pulse shaper [PDF]
We experimentally demonstrate the use of saw-tooth optical pulses, which are shaped using a fiber Bragg grating, to achieve robust and high performance time-domain add-drop multiplexing in a scheme based on cross-phase (XPM) modulation in an optical ...

Effect of chewing gum on tooth sensitivity following whitening [PDF]
Transient sensitivity is the most common side-effect associated with tooth whitening. The purpose of this randomised, controlled clinical study was to determine if a chewing gum containing Recaldent (CPP-ACP) was effective in reducing tooth sensitivity associated with in-office whitening procedures.Eighty-eight patients were recruited and had their ...

Deep Learning for the Radiographic Detection of periodontal Bone Loss [PDF]
We applied deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to detect periodontal bone loss (PBL) on panoramic dental radiographs. We synthesized a set of 2001 image segments from panoramic radiographs. Our reference test was the measured % of PBL.
