Efficacy of Palatal Applications on Fracture Resistance of Reattached Maxillary Central Incisors: An Study.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of different palatal applications on fracture strength of the fractured anterior tooth. Sixty caries-free human maxillary incisors were used. Endodontic treatments of the teeth were performed.

Effects of three different bleaching agents on microhardness and roughness of composite sample surfaces finished with different polishing techniques.

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate effects of different polishing methods and whitening agents on surface hardness and roughness of nano-hybrid composite resin.

Material And Methods: In total, one hundred twenty disc-shaped specimens were prepared to nano-hybrid composite (Charisma Diamond). 60 samples were used for microhardness measurements and the others were used for the evaluation of surface roughness.

Evaluation of caries dentin using light-induced fluorescence: a case report.

Minimal invasive therapy has been becoming more important day by day in dentistry. In minimally invasive dentistry, only the infected dentin is removed and the affected dentin is left behind while preparing to repair a cavity. Healthy enamel and dentin have particular fluorescence properties, compared to demineralized dental tissues, which absorb less light and thereby have a lower level of fluorescence properties.
