Five-year clinical follow-up of bulk-fill restorative materials in class II restorations.

This study evaluates the 5-year clinical performance of Class II restorations performed with different bulk-fill restorative materials. In the study, Class II restorations performed with Tetric Bulk-Fill (TBF), Filtek Bulk-Fill (FBF), and Equia Forte Fil (EF) were evaluated. One hundred-nineteen restorations were included in the study.

Risk factors for distal caries of second molars adjacent to mesioangular or horizontal partially erupted mandibular third molars: a cross-sectional study.

Introduction Impacted mandibular third molars can be asymptomatic or cause some pathologies, such as distal caries and odontogenic cysts and tumours. This study investigates the prevalence of distal caries of the mandibular second molar adjacent to the mesioangular or horizontally partially erupted mandibular third molar and its relationship regarding decayed, missing and filled teeth (DMFT) risk group, age, side (left-right) and sex.Methods The study included patients who had an appointment for mesioangular or horizontally positioned and partially erupted mandibular third molar surgery.

Changes in physical properties of universal composites and CAD/CAM materials after bleaching and antioxidant applications: Scanning electron microscope and atomic force microscope evaluation.

To evaluate the effects of vital bleaching agents and the subsequent application of ascorbic acid (AA) to universal composites and resin-based CAD/CAM blocks on the physical properties of materials. In the study; G-enial A'chord (GCA), Filtek Ultimate (FU), Clearfil Majesty (CM) composites, and LAVA Ultimate (LU), Cerasmart (GCC) CAD/CAM blocks were used. The materials were divided into two subgroups based on the applied bleaching type (n = 30/group): office bleaching (OB) and home bleaching (HB).

Perioperative management of tonsilloadenoidectomy and circumcision of a patient with Bernard-Soulier syndrome: case report.

Bernard-Soulier syndrome is an autosomal recessive coagulopathy characterized by thrombocytopenia, prolonged bleeding time and large platelets. Because of the rarity of this disease, standard perioperative treatment protocols have not been developed and there are not enough available data for the management of surgical procedures. In this case, we successfully performed adenoidectomy and tonsillectomy and circumcision surgery concurrently under the preventive and intermittent transfusion of platelets.
