Dental hard tissue conditions can be of pre- or post-eruptive nature, such as enamel fluorosis and erosive tooth wear (ETW), respectively. Dental enamel fluorosis is caused by the chronic and excessiv...
To estimate the prevalence of developmental defects in dental enamel and its possible association with prenatal, neonatal and postnatal conditions in six-year-old schoolchildren in a southern Brazilia...
A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 655 six-year-old schoolchildren. Sociodemographic and health data were collected through interviews with mothers and children's oral examinations at sch...
The prevalence of developmental defects of enamel was 44.0%. Demarcated opacities were the most prevalent, followed by diffuse opacities. Late pregnancy, maternal schooling less than eight years, fema...
The prevalence of developmental defects in dental enamel was 44.0%. Late pregnancy, maternal schooling less than eight years, female gender and child's white skin color were associated with the preval...
Fluoride treatment is one of the most effective dental caries prevention methods. To continuously prevent dental caries, stably immobilizing the fluoride on the tooth enamel is highly desirable. This ...
To prepare the enamel specimens for polydopamine- and fluoride ion-coating, they were treated with polydopamine- and fluoride-containing gels. The enamel specimens were collected from human molars in ...
Polydopamine- and fluoride ion-coated enamels showed the highest fluoride content and lowest VHN reduction among the samples. The fluoride content of the polydopamine/fluoride ion (PD/F)-coated enamel...
Our findings suggest that one-pot treatments with polydopamine and fluoride ions could significantly enhance remineralization by inhibiting enamel demineralization through the prolonged retention of f...
Clear aligners have become one of the most important tools in orthodontic treatment. However, over a lengthy period of orthodontic treatment, enamel demineralization or even dental caries could be sus...
This study aimed to analyze the crystalline structure of dental enamel in pediatric patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The six tested samples had a mineral composit...
To provide the first review on cutting-edge research on the development of new bioactive restorations to inhibit secondary caries in enamel and dentin under biofilms. State-of-the-art bioactive and th...
Researches on development and assessment new secondary caries inhibition restorations via in vitro and in vivo biofilm-based secondary caries models were included. The search of articles was carried o...
Based on the found articles, novel bioactive materials are divided into different categories according to their remineralization and antibacterial biofunctions. In vitro and in vivo biofilm-based seco...
Secondary caries is a primary reason for dental restoration failures. Biofilms produce acids, causing demineralization and secondary caries. To inhibit dental caries and improve the health and quality...
This study aims to validate a methodology for analyzing undecalcified, sound dental enamel proteomics using Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS). The study evaluates various parameters, inc...
Sound dental enamel was removed using a wet grinding technique, then digested with trypsin and labeled with TMT prior to LC-MS analysis. The resulting proteomes were matched against the Homo sapiens S...
The study found that covering dental roots with composite during dental enamel microdissection is advisable, while using protease inhibition during microdissection may not be fully supported. The prot...
Overall, this study validates a methodology for analyzing undecalcified, sound dental enamel proteomics using LC-MS, and provides insights into various factors that can affect the quality and reliabil...
To evaluate the optical match between enamel and resin composites fabricated using mono-layered and double-layered techniques....
Enamel slabs were prepared from human upper incisors and canines. Mono-layered composite replicas were prepared from seven Filtek Z350XT and Estelite Sigma shades using silicone molds prepared from th...
For the mono-layered composites, white enamel and translucent shades of Filtek yielded the lowest ΔTP for canines (4.6) and incisors (8.9), respectively. The ΔE...
For canines, the lowest ΔTP of Filtek white enamel was close to the acceptable threshold (4.43). For incisors, the thicker translucent double-layered Filtek composites demonstrated the greatest optica...
Upper incisors and canines have distinct enamel optical properties. Enamel layering using specific double-layered resin composites could achieve a better optical match with upper incisor enamel....
This study aimed to evaluate the chemical composition of the proximal enamel surface and the surface characteristics subjected to different extents of interproximal reduction (IPR) in a clinical setti...
Premolars of orthodontic patients which were designated for extraction were subjected to .2 mm, .3 mm, and .5 mm of IPR. After 1 month, the teeth were extracted and the teeth were subjected to scannin...
The SEM images of the three experimental groups (taken at magnification of 500 × and 2000 ×) showed that the enamel surfaces were irregular and rough compared to the honey comb appearance of the unstr...
On analyzing the surface characteristics of enamel using SEM between the stripped and unstripped surfaces, there were irregularities and roughness seen in stripped surface whereas honey comb pattern w...
There have been concerns that IPR can remove the superficial mineral-rich layer making the deeper layers more susceptible to carious attack. No study has evaluated the mineral content in different lay...
Amelogenesis, the intricate process governing enamel formation, is susceptible to a range of genetic, systemic, and environmental influences, resulting in distinct developmental defects of enamel (DDE...
