Abstract Objective To evaluate a new method of measuring the real deviation (trueness) of full arch impressions intraorally and to investigate the trueness of digital full arch impressions in comparison…
Abstract Objectives The influence of toothbrushing duration and dentifrice quantity on fluoride efficacy against dental caries is poorly understood. This study investigated effects of these two oral hygiene factors on…
Abstract Objective To explore the association between tooth wear and quality of life among adults in the United Kingdom, independently of sociodemographic factors and other common oral conditions. Methods We…
Abstract Objectives Dentists enrolled in the National Dental Practice-Based Research Network completed a study questionnaire about techniques and materials used for single-unit crowns and an enrollment questionnaire about dentist/practice characteristics….
Abstract Objective To investigate remineralisation of dentine in the hydrogel microenvironment for the management of hypersensitivity. Methods Human dentine slices were prepared from extracted sound human molars. They were acid-etched…
Abstract Objectives To examine relationships between oral health (OH) factors and general health (GH) factors (including physical, mental, and social health domains), and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in…
Abstract Objectives To evaluate the effect of specimen thickness, pretreatment and hydrothermal aging on the biaxial flexural strength (BFS) of lithium di-silicate glass (e.max Cad) and magnesia-stabilized zirconia (ZirMagnum) ceramic…
Abstract Objectives We systematically reviewed treatment modalities for MIH-affected molars and incisors. Data Trials on humans with ≥1 MIH molar/incisor reporting on various treatments were included. Two authors independently searched…
Abstract Objectives To evaluate the efficacy of EO as adjuncts to mechanical plaque control (MPC) on the reduction of plaque and gingivitis when compared to placebo or cetylpyridium chloride (CPC)….
Abstract Background Clinical experience suggests that there is a difference in survival between anterior and posterior all ceramic restorations. Objectives This systematic review compared the difference in survival for full…
Abstract Objectives This study aimed to fabricate and characterise silanated and titanated nanobarium titanate (NBT) filled poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) denture base composites and to evaluate the behaviour of a titanate…
Abstract Purpose The aim of this follow-up study was to report the long-term outcome of all-ceramic cantilever resin-bonded fixed dental prostheses (RBFDPs). Materials and methods In 16 patients (mean age…
Abstract Objectives Functionalised silica sub-micron particles are being investigated as a method of delivering antimicrobials and remineralisation agents into dentinal tubules. However, their methods of application are not optimised, resulting…
Abstract Objectives The aim of this study was to characterize the mineral density parameters through natural enamel brown spot lesions (BSLs) and to visualize and map their mineral distribution pattern…
Abstract Objectives There is a lack of clinical data on the impact of timing of dietary acid intake and toothbrush abrasion when attempting to control erosive tooth wear progression. The…
Abstract Objectives This study aims at evaluating and comparing mechanical, chemical, and cytotoxicological parameters of a commercial brand name composite material against two ‘own brand label’ (OBL) composites. Methods Parameters…
Abstract Objectives To prospectively evaluate the clinical long-term outcome of tooth-supported crowns (SCs), implant-supported crowns (ISCs), and fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) made of a lithium-disilicate glass-ceramic framework material (IPS Empress…
Abstract Objectives To identify the determinants of OHRQoL among older people in the United Kingdom. Methods A subset of elderly (≥65 year) participants from the UK Adult Dental Health Survey…
Abstract Objective This study investigated if the incorporation of the bioadhesive polymers Carbopol 980, Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), and Aristoflex AVC in a fluoridated solution (NaF–900 ppm) would increase the solution’s…
Abstract Introduction With a growing number of individuals retaining their teeth lifelong, often with periodontitis-induced root surface exposure, there is the need for cost-effective management strategies for root caries lesions….
