Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Layla Reginna da Silva Munhoz Vasconcelos"

  • - Layla Reginna da Silva Munhoz Vasconcelos focuses her research on the antimicrobial effectiveness and physicochemical properties of calcium hydroxide pastes in dental applications, particularly against Enterococcus faecalis in infected dentin.
  • - Her studies utilize advanced techniques like Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (CLSM) to assess the penetrability and decontamination abilities of various calcium hydroxide formulations, analyzing factors such as vehicle type and ultrasonic agitation.
  • - Findings indicate that ultrasonic agitation can significantly reduce the time required for effective antimicrobial action and enhance the penetrability of calcium hydroxide pastes, revealing important implications for improving endodontic treatment outcomes.
