Treatment Outcomes of Pulpotomy in Primary Teeth with Irreversible Pulpitis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Aim: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the success rates of pulpotomy treatment for irreversible pulpitis in primary teeth.

Methods: This study was registered and conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Protocols. Relevant studies published between January 1980 and April 2023 were identified across eight online databases and two paediatric dentistry textbooks.

Antifungal effects of eugenol on adherence to denture polymers.

Background: The study's objective is to assess the adherence of in different types of denture polymers and the effectiveness of eugenol and commercialized denture cleansers in the removal of . Three types of denture base polymers (Lucitone 199 (High-Impact PMMA), Impact (conventional PMMA) and Eclipse (UDMA)) and two hard denture reline materials (Kooliner and Tokuyama Rebase II Fast) were used in this study.

Methods: Three hundred samples were prepared (6 × 2 mm disc shape) and divided into five groups of denture polymers ( = 60) and further subjected into five treatment groups (Polident, Steradent, distilled water, eugenol 5-minutes, and eugenol 10-min).

Retrospective analysis of dental treatment under general anesthesia among children with early childhood caries in Malaysia.

Many children are affected by early childhood caries (ECC) with some requiring dental treatment under general anesthesia (GA). In pediatric dentistry, GA is one of the established methods of behavior management. GA data is useful for understanding the caries burden among young children.

Expert consensus on relevant topics for undergraduate paediatric dental curriculum using the fuzzy Delphi method: a new direction for Malaysian dental education.

Background: Paediatric dentistry is a branch of dental specialty that focuses on dental care for children from infancy through adolescence. However, there is no standardised national undergraduate paediatric dental curriculum in Malaysia. The present study aimed to identify relevant topics for undergraduate paediatric dental curricula and to determine the appropriate cognitive and psychomotor levels for each topic based on the consensus among paediatric dental experts.

Resin Infiltration of Non-Cavitated Enamel Lesions in Paediatric Dentistry: A Narrative Review.

The resin infiltration (RI) technique was introduced as one of the minimal intervention dentistry strategies in addressing dental caries among the paediatric population. This technique used the low-viscosity resin monomer to infiltrate the non-cavitated carious lesion and other developmental enamel porosities, thus allowing the conservation of the tooth structure. This narrative review aims to explore the value of RI in Paediatric Dentistry.
