Introduction: Erosive tooth wear (ETW) is a multifactorial condition of increasing prevalence in the younger population. This study aimed to explore the association between different ETW phenotypes with MMP2 and COMT single-nucleotide variants and selected environmental factors.
Methods: Saliva samples, erosive wear, and dental caries experience data and dietary/behavioral information from 16- to 18-year-old patients (n = 747) were used.
Background: To investigate the effectiveness of a novel agent containing Nano Silver Fluoride 1500 (NSF 1500) and chitosan to inactivate carious lesions in children.
Material And Methods: The study included eighty children. While both groups had fluoride dentifrice applied to their teeth, only the experimental group received treatment with the NSF 1500-ppm solution.
This exploratory study investigated whether children with dental decay were more likely to have COVID-19 than those without caries. The children underwent dental inspection and blood collection for detection of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. Fifty-four children aged 6 to 9 years participated in the survey, which was conducted between March and June 2020 in the municipality of Ipojuca, Pernambuco, Brazil.

Design: Populational cross-sectional study.
Setting: All live borns with orofacial cleft registered at Brazilian Live Birth Information System between 1999 and 2020.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to explore the connection between sense of coherence (SOC) and oral health in children and adolescents by reviewing existing research.
- Researchers followed a structured scoping review method and analyzed studies from various databases, ultimately identifying 24 relevant publications from multiple countries.
- Findings suggested that a stronger sense of coherence in both caregivers and children/adolescents is associated with healthier oral health practices and fewer cavities, though no clear link was found regarding periodontal diseases.
Article Synopsis
- The study examines the presence of oral lesions in hospitalized children with severe COVID-19 symptoms at a hospital in Pernambuco, Brazil, from March to August 2020.
- Out of 89 children analyzed, 20.2% exhibited oral manifestations, with mucositis being the most common at 12.4%.
- The results indicate that children with oral lesions experienced longer hospital stays, suggesting a need for additional research to explore the link between these lesions and COVID-19 in pediatric patients for better screening practices by dentists.
Objective: To compare the performance of different dentifrices indicated for dental erosion and a new dentifrice with controlled fluoride release system (NanoF) in terms of surface microhardness remineralization in enamel erosion lesions.
Materials And Methods: 72 human enamel specimens were divided into 6 groups ( = 12): PC (100% NaF - positive control); NC (Placebo - negative control); 50%nF (50% NanoF + 50% free NaF), 100%nF (100% NanoF); PN (Sensodyne ProNamel™) and AG (Colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief™). A surface microhardness analysis was performed before (SH) and after (SH) the erosion lesion formation.
