Currently, the long-term success of esthetic rehabilitation with ceramics is required. Hence, professional knowledge about the most indicated dental material for each clinical situation as well as its usage protocol is essential. The aim of this systematic review of clinical and laboratorial studies was to compare the bond strength of prostheses using silane incorporated to universal adhesives or applied separately.

Article Synopsis
  • The study compared two anesthetic techniques (computed vs. conventional) for lower jaw surgeries in 29 healthy patients with similar cases.
  • Both techniques used 2% lidocaine with epinephrine, and pain was measured using a Visual Analogue Scale while patient satisfaction was assessed with a Likert Scale.
  • Results indicated that while the computed method resulted in lower pain perception, the difference wasn't statistically significant and the computed technique took longer to perform compared to the conventional method.

Article Synopsis
  • Firearm accidents can lead to severe injuries in the orbital area and may result in loss of vision and impaired eye movements due to loose gun parts causing trauma.
  • Multidisciplinary treatment and advanced imaging techniques, like CT scans with 3D reconstruction, are crucial for assessing the injuries and planning surgery.
  • The temporal approach is highlighted as an effective and minimally complicated surgical method for accessing damaged areas like the infratemporal fossa in firearm-related trauma cases.

Article Synopsis
  • The study compared the effects of midazolam (7.5 mg) and diazepam (10.0 mg) on hemodynamic changes during third molar extraction in 120 patients.
  • Significant differences were found in heart rate and rate pressure product, notably higher with midazolam, while diazepam showed higher diastolic blood pressure in certain time intervals.
  • Both medications influenced hemodynamic parameters, but no noticeable clinical changes occurred in healthy patients undergoing the procedure.
