Abstract Objectives This study systematically review the literature to assess the effectiveness of antibacterial monomers incorporated into dental adhesive systems against major oral bacteria; as well as the research advances…
Abstract Objectives This study investigated the influence of conventional cementation, self-adhesive cementation, and adhesive bonding on the in vitro performance, fracture resistance, and marginal adaptation of zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate (ZLS)…
Abstract Objective Released dental composite components can damage human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) and their DNA. The cytotoxicity, chromatin condensation and the induction of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) by different…
Abstract Objectives The aim of this study was the detection of putative gene expression-related effects of dental composites in conventional and interactive gingival cell systems. Methods Conventional monoculture (MC) and…
Abstract Objectives Aim of the present study was to evaluate fracture strength of endodontically treated molars with different preparations/restorations after thermomechanical loading in vitro. Methods 264 extracted human third molars…
Highlights • Infiltrating the zirconia cementation surface with glass can substantially improve its resin bonding strength. • The interfacial fracture energy for glass-infiltrated graded zirconia is similar to that of…
Abstract Objective Hypersensitivity of non-carious cervical lesions (DH) is a frequently encountered disease. This randomized, controlled, single-blind crossover study evaluated the effectiveness of a calcium phosphate containing desensitizer paste (TAP)…
Highlights • Osteoinductive properties of Bioroot™ RCS was compared to Kerr’s Pulp Canal Sealer™ using the mouse pulp-derived stem cell line A4, which have an osteo/odontogenic potential in vitro ….
Abstract Objectives Cure, volumetric changes and mechanical properties were assessed for new dental composites containing chlorhexidine (CHX) and reactive calcium phosphate-containing (CaP) to reduce recurrent caries. Methods 20 wt.% of…
Abstract Objectives To detail the development of ester-free thiol–ene dental resins with enhanced mechanical performance, limited potential for water uptake/leachables/degradation and low polymerization shrinkage stress. Methods Thiol-terminated oligomers were prepared…
