Comparative Evaluation of the Quality of Obturation Between Three Obturation Techniques in Primary Canines: An In Vitro Study.

Aims This study compares three obturation techniques (rotary lentulo spiral, handheld lentulo spiral, and pressure syringe) for the quality of two filling pastes (zinc oxide eugenol (ZOE) paste and Metapex (Meta Biomed Co., Ltd., Chungcheongbuk-do, Korea).

Effect of Fibres on Physico-Mechanical Properties of Bulk-Fill Resin Composites.

Objective: To measure the flexural strength (FS) of bulk-fill resin composites and assess their long-term water absorption and solubility properties with and without the inclusion of short glass fibres.

Methods: One resin composite, everX Flow with fibres, and four commercially available bulk-fill composites without fibres, namely, PALFIQUE, Activa, SDR Plus, and Filtek Bulk Fill One, were tested. Six specimens (2 × 2 × 25 mm) were fabricated for each material and stored in water for 1 day and 30 days to measure the flexural strength using a three-point bending test.

Caries arrest using silver diamine fluoride: Knowledge, attitude, and perception of adult patients in Saudi Arabia.

Objectives: The objective was to evaluate the current knowledge, attitude, and perception of adult patients toward SDF and identify related factors.

Materials And Methods: In this cross-sectional study, data were obtained from adult participants of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. A simple random sampling method was used.
