Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the surface roughness and color changes of various resin-based restorative materials after being immersed in liquids with different pH levels for 14 days.
- Results showed that Carisma Diamond One had the highest surface roughness and color change, while Omnichroma Flow Bulk had the lowest, with coffee and cola significantly influencing color changes.
- The findings emphasize the importance for clinicians and patients to be aware that these materials can alter in surface properties and color due to exposure to acidic or pigmented beverages.
Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the local reactions and new bone formation of rat subcutaneous and bone tissue to different calcium silicate cements.
Methods: In this study, 80 rats were divided into five groups as control, BIOfactor MTA (BIO), NeoMTA Plus (NEO), MTA Repair Hp (REP), Biodentine (DENT) and then into two subgroups according to sacrification times (7, 30 days; n = 8). Polyethylene tubes filled with appropriate materials (test groups); empty tubes (control group) were implanted into the dorsum of each rat subcutaneously.
Aim: This study aimed to examine the systemic effects of contemporary calcium silicate cements (CSC) contain different radiopacifiers in rats.
Materials & Methods: Polyethylene tubes filled with BIOfactor MTA (BIO), Neo MTA Plus (NEO), MTA Repair HP (REP), Biodentine (DENT) and empty tubes (control group) were implanted into the subcutaneous tissues of 80 male Spraque Dawley rats for 7 and 30 days ( = 8). After 7 and 30 day, samples of liver and kidney tissues were submitted to histopathological analysis.
The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of various remineralizing agents on the color stability and surface characteristics of the teeth after vital bleaching. The extracted 96 human incisors were used for the study. Initially, the samples were randomly divided into two groups and exposed to in-office and at-home bleaching agents.

This alkali-based catalyst enables the formation of crystalline, multi-walled BNNTs with high aspect ratio at temperatures as low as 750 °C, significantly lower than those typically required for the product formation by TCVD.
