Evaluation of , and genes polymorphisms in children with dental caries compared to caries-free controls.

Dental caries is a complex condition that results from a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Several genes have been found to play a role in teeth development and have been associated with various dental traits. In this study, our objective was to examine the potential correlation between the ectodysplasin a receptor (EDAR)-associated death domain (EDARADD), Lactoperoxidase (LPO) and Actinin Alpha 2 (ACTN2) gene polymorphisms and susceptibility to dental caries.

Effect of Adhesive Resin as a Modeling Liquid on Elution of Resin Composite Restorations.

Background: Adhesive resin is increasingly used as a modeling liquid for composite. Based on previous studies, elution of some components from the composite mass negatively affects the oral tissues. Since few studies have focused on the effect of adhesive resin on composite mass, this study aimed to investigate the effect of dental adhesion factors as modeling liquid on the elution of substances from composite restorations.
