Abstract Objectives The aim of this retrospective study with large sample was to assess the 5-year clinical outcomes of four different types of restorations made from IPS e.max Press. Methods…
Abstract Objectives Intra-oral pH plays an important role in the pathogenesis of tooth erosion and decay, but there is limited information about its variation in real life settings. The aims…
Abstract Objective To evaluate in a randomized controlled study the 5-year clinical durability of a flowable resin composite bulk-fill technique in Class I and Class II restorations. Material and methods…
Abstract Objectives To investigate the influence of bonding resin thixotropy and viscosity on dentine tubule penetration, blister formation and consequently on dentine bond strength as a function of air-blowing pressure…
Abstract Objectives To investigate the effectiveness of silver diammine fluoride (SDF) solution application in arresting dental root caries and to assess the color of arrested caries lesions. Methods This study…
Abstract Objective To determine the risk indicators associated with root caries experience in a cohort of independently living older adults in Ireland. Methods The data reported in the present study…
Abstract Objectives Various agents are currently available for treatment of hypersensitive dentine, however, their resistance to erosion intraorally by various erosive drinks is still questionable. The aim of this study…
Abstract Objectives This study aimed to investigate dentists’ treatment choices concerning “repair or replacement” of defective restorations. Methods A pre-coded questionnaire was sent electronically to all dentists (n = 1313)…
Graphical abstract Abstract Objectives This study examined the bonding performance and dentin remineralization potential of an experimental adhesive containing calcium-phosphate (Ca/P) micro-fillers, and self-etching primers doped with phosphoprotein biomimetic analogs…
Abstract Objectives This study evaluated several fiber- and matrix related factors and investigated different mechanical properties of discontinuous i.e. short fiber-reinforced composite (SFRC) (everX Posterior, eXP). These were compared with…
