New concepts and technology for processing of indirect composites.

Published: August 2003

Indirect composites are becoming more popular as technology yields materials with increased mechanical properties while reducing occlusal wear with opposing teeth. Several of the indirect systems currently on the market use both light and heat catalysts in the same resin, which results in higher polymerization rates than light-curing alone. However, the order in which the indirect restoration is exposed to pressure and light may make a difference in the final properties of the prosthesis.

Weight loss is associated with reductions in resting energy expenditure (REE), which are impacted by changes in body composition following sleeve gastrectomy (SG). Current data regarding changes in measured REE (mREE) and metabolic adaptation in adolescents after SG are limited. We evaluated changes in mREE, metabolic adaptation, and body composition in youths after SG vs.

The gut microbiome impacts human health in direct and indirect ways. While many associations have been discovered between specific microbiome compositions and diseases, establishing causality, understanding the underlying mechanisms, and developing successful microbiome-based therapies require novel experimental approaches. In this opinion, we discuss how in vitro cultivation of diverse communities enables systematic investigation of the individual and collective functions of gut microbes.

Clinical Effectiveness of Biomaterials in Indirect Pulp Therapy Treatment of Young Permanent Molars with Deep Carious Lesions: A Case-Control Study.

Int J Clin Pediatr Dent

November 2024

Department of Pediatric and Preventive Dentistry, Shree Guru Gobind Singh Tricentenary Dental College, Hospital and Research Institute, Gurugram, Haryana, India.

Aim: The present case-control study was planned to assess the comparative efficacy of resin-modified calcium silicate, resin-modified glass ionomer, and Dycal as pulp capping agents in indirect pulp therapy for deeply carious young permanent molars.

Materials And Methods: Thirty deeply carious young posterior teeth were treated by indirect pulp therapy. During the treatment, the cavity floor was lined with TheraCal or resin-modified glass ionomer cement (RMGIC) in the study group and with Dycal (control group) followed by GC IX and composite restoration.
