Background: Regenerative endodontic procedures allow reinforcement of root canal wall and continuation of root development, opening new therapeutic possibilities. The root canal system of infected teeth is colonized by a variety of microorganisms, which hinder the regenerative process, leading to treatment failure if not adequately addressed, thereby requiring careful attention to microbial control.
Aim And Objective: The aim of the study was to assess the antimicrobial activity of advanced platelet-rich fibrin (A-PRF) and gold nanoparticles (AuNps) against .
Context: The resin-dentin interface is less durable, which reduces the longevity of tooth-colored restorations. To encounter this shortcoming, the use of nanotechnology to mimic biomineralization proves beneficial.
Aims: This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of remineralization with strontium-doped nanohydroxyapatite (Sr-nHAp) with chitosan on shear bond strength of resin composite to dentin.
Aim: This study evaluated the effect of staining and subsequent bleaching on the color stability and surface roughness of three resin composites.
Materials And Methods: One hundred and eight customized plastic disks from a plastic mold with an outer diameter of 10 mm and thickness of 1.02 mm were fabricated.
Background: Dentin desensitizers may change the properties of smear layer and have adverse effects on the bonding performance of adhesive systems.
Aim: The aim of this study was to compare the effect of bioactive glass (BG), hydroxyapatite, and diode laser desensitization on shear bond strength of resin composites to dentin at different time intervals.
Materials And Methods: Seventy-two caries-free maxillary premolars were selected.
The bond strength of ActiV GP and gutta-percha/AH Plus after using 2% CHX as final rinse was evaluated in this study. According to the final irrigation regimen forty roots were divided into two groups (n = 20) randomly: Group 1-5 ml of 17% EDTA; Group 2-5 ml of 17% EDTA followed by 5 ml of 2% chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX). Based on the obturation system the two groups were further subdivided into two subgroups (n = 10).
