Abstract Objective To investigate the remineralisation of chitosan pre-treated enamel white spot lesions (WSLs) by bioglass in the presence of the pellicle layer. Methods 50 artificial enamel white spot lesions…
Abstract Objective Rechargeable calcium phosphate (CaP) composites were developed recently. However, none of the rechargeable CaP composites was antibacterial. The objectives of this study were to develop the first rechargeable…
Abstract Objectives Molar Incisor Hypomineralisation (MIH) and Hypomineralised Second Primary Molars (HSPM) involve qualitative structural developmental anomalies of tooth enamel affecting the first permanent molars (and often incisors) and the…
Abstract Aim The aim of this study was to review patterns of restoration placement and replacement. A previous study had been carried out in the late 1990s and this study…
Abstract Objectives The use of thio-urethane oligomers has been shown to significantly improve the mechanical properties of resin cements (RCs). The aim of this study was to use thio-urethane-modified RC…
Graphical abstract Highlights • Dentin sealing of loaded GIC-bonded interfaces improved after loading. • After load cycling both class-ionomer cements favor dentin remineralization. • Mechanical stimuli facilitates stress dissipation at…
Abstract Objectives The use of thio-urethane oligomers has been shown to significantly improve the mechanical properties of resin cements (RCs). The aim of this study was to use thio-urethane-modified RC…
Abstract Introduction The present study reported the histological events that occurred in the radicular pulp of human mature teeth in the presence of medium/deep untreated caries lesions, and those teeth…
Abstract Objectives To compare the efficacy of fluoride varnishes either casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) or bioglass particles on the severity index of root caries. Methods Visual-tactile assessments including lesion…
Abstract Objectives This study aims to evaluate the fracture load of differently fabricated 3-unit posterior fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) with an intermediate pontic. Methods Fifty sets of two stainless-steel abutments…
