Context: Relation between the adequate intensity output of curing lights on color stability of composite resin is well accepted.
Aims: To investigate the effect of different light-curing intensities and its relation to color stability of different polymerized composite resin materials using the spectophotometric analysis.
Settings And Design: Comparative study done on composite resin discs.
Background: Enamel is the hardest and vastly mineralized structure of the human body. Inorganic salts make up the majority of it. Water and ions pass right through the enamel.

Methods: Eighty extracted premolars were randomly divided into two groups. Group 1: orthodontic brackets were bonded with RMGIC.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate quality, reliability, and comprehensiveness of YouTube videos about oral self-examination to detect oral cancer and precancerous lesions and to assess whether the source, duration, quality, reliability, and/or comprehensiveness of videos influence their visibility and popularity.
Materials And Methods: Videos on YouTube were searched using eight keywords similar to oral self-examination. The first 100 videos for each search term were included.
