Crowns and roots of human molars, the roots from which had not been exposed to the oral environment, were exposed for 0, 3.5, 7, and 14 days to buffer solutions which were undersaturated or supersaturated with respect to hydroxyapatite. Densitometric measurements on contact-microradiograms of transverse sections of the crowns and of the cervical parts of the roots yielded plots of the mineral content as a function of the distance to the outer surface. From these plots, the rate of demineralization was calculated. It was found that the mineral of the roots dissolved even in buffer solutions which were supersaturated with respect to hydroxyapatite. Comparison of the results obtained from the crowns with those from the roots showed that the root hard tissues were more vulnerable to demineralization than was the dental enamel.

Objective: To study the durability of the anti-demineralization effects of fluoride varnish after being applied to dental root surfaces.
Methods: Coronal and radicular dentin samples were prepared from extracted human teeth. Duraphat (DP) was applied to the dentine surfaces to form a protective film.

Degradable and cost-effective cellulose fiber-based materials are ideal substitutes for traditional plastics. However, organic additives used to enhance water and oil resistance often contain toxic substances that may migrate into food, posing health risks. In this study, inspired by tree structures, lignin-containing cellulose nanofibers (LCNFs) are used to form a "crown-roots" structure to enhance the water, oil, and gas resistance, as well as mechanical performance of composites.

Objectives: The aim of this technical report was to assess whether the "Radiological Report" tool within the Artificial Intelligence (AI) software Diagnocat can achieve a satisfactory level of performance comparable to that of experienced dentomaxillofacial radiologists in interpreting cone-beam CT scans.
Methods: Ten cone-beam CT scans were carefully selected and analyzed using the AI tool, and they were also evaluated by two dentomaxillofacial radiologists. Observations related to tooth numeration, alterations in dental crowns, roots, and periodontal tissues were documented and subsequently compared to the AI findings.

Objectives: This study aimed to compare the marginal adaptation of a cold ceramic (CC) sealer with the single-cone obturation technique with that of an AH-26 sealer with the lateral compaction technique in single-canal teeth.
Materials And Methods: In this in vitro experimental study, the root canals of 24 extracted single-rooted single-canal teeth were instrumented to F3 files by the crown-down technique and randomly assigned to 2 groups (n = 12). The root canals were obturated with a CC sealer and single-cone obturation technique with 4% gutta-percha in group 1 and with an AH-26 sealer and lateral compaction technique with 2% gutta-percha in group 2.
