Efficacy of denture cleansers on Candida albicans adhesion and their effects on the properties of conventional, milled CAD/CAM, and 3D-printed denture bases.

Objectives: Evaluate the efficacy of denture cleaners on the adhesion of Candida albicans and their effects on the surface, optical, and mechanical properties of resins for conventional, milled, and 3D-printed denture bases.

Materials And Methods: A total of 240 resin samples were made, 120 for testing Candida albicans adhesion, optical stabilities (ΔE), roughness (Ra), hydrophilicity (°), surface free energy (Owens-Wendt) and 120 samples for testing Candida albicans adhesion, surface microhardness (Knoop), flexural strength and modulus of elasticity in a three-point test, in which they were divided into 3 groups of denture resin (n = 40) and subdivided into 5 cleaners of dentures (n = 8). Data were evaluated by two-way ANOVA and Tukey's test for multiple comparisons (α = 0.

Effects of Overnight Denture Cleaners on Surface and Optical Properties of Conventional, CAD/CAM Milled, and 3D Printed Dentures.

Objective: Evaluate the roughness and color stability of different types of resins used to immerse denture bases in various denture cleansers overnight.

Metodology: A total of 150 resin samples were made, which were divided into 3 groups of denture resin (conventional thermally activated, milled and 3D printed) (n= 50) and subdivided into 5 denture cleaners (Distilled water, Corega Tabs, Efferdent, NaOCl 1.0%, Listerine Cool Hint) (n= 10).

Do dental implants installed in different types of bone (I, II, III, IV) have different success rates? A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Purpose: The objective of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the survival rate of implants installed in bone type IV (Lekholm and Zarb, 1995) compared to that of implants installed in bone types I, II, and III.

Material And Methods: This review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines (PRISMA) and was registered in the PROSPERO International Database of Systematic Reviews (CRD42021229775). The PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, and Cochrane databases were searched through July 2021.

Influence of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy on the bond strength of endodontic sealers to intraradicular dentin: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: The objective of this systematic review and meta-analysis (SRMA) was to investigate the influence of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) on the bond strength of endodontic sealers to intraradicular dentin.

Methods: This SRMA followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) and was registered in the International Prospective Registry of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) (CRD42022319856). A population, intervention, control, and outcome (PICO) question was formulated: "Does antimicrobial photodynamic therapy decrease the bond strength of root canal sealers?".
