Article Synopsis
  • Exercise can have adverse effects
  • : Physical activity, especially high-intensity exercise (HIE), can lead to negative changes in dental tissues, including increased inflammation and degeneration in the dental pulp and periodontal ligament (PDL).
  • Study setup
  • : Researchers studied male Balb/c mice divided into two exercise groups (low and high-intensity) and supplemented them with creatine monohydrate (CrM) to observe the effects on dental tissues.
  • Findings
  • : The HIE group showed significant dental tissue damage and increased inflammatory markers compared to the control group, but CrM supplementation appeared to reduce these harmful effects.

Objectives: This study will evaluate the effects of anti-epileptic drugs and brushing used in children on the color change of three restorative materials by creating an in vitro study model.

Methods: Forty samples of polyacid-modified composite resin (compomer), glass ionomer cement (GIC), and composite resin (CR) were prepared. Samples were split into four groups (n = 10) and soaked in three anti-epileptic drugs (Tegretol, Depakine, Keppra) and distilled water.

BACKGROUND We conducted a finite element analysis to evaluate stress levels in incisor teeth restored with custom polyetheretherketone (PEEK) dental post-cores compared to conventional post-cores. MATERIAL AND METHODS Using micro-computed tomography (μCT) imaging data, a 3D model of a maxillary incisor was created. For each material type, 3D mesh models were developed via specialized software.

Aim: This study aimed to examine the systemic effects of contemporary calcium silicate cements (CSC) contain different radiopacifiers in rats.

Materials & Methods: Polyethylene tubes filled with BIOfactor MTA (BIO), Neo MTA Plus (NEO), MTA Repair HP (REP), Biodentine (DENT) and empty tubes (control group) were implanted into the subcutaneous tissues of 80 male Spraque Dawley rats for 7 and 30 days ( = 8). After 7 and 30 day, samples of liver and kidney tissues were submitted to histopathological analysis.
