In vitro cytotoxicity (irritant potency) of toothpaste ingredients.
PLoS One
January 2025
Department of Dental Materials Science, Academic Center for Dentistry (ACTA), University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Purpose: This study aimed to determine the cytotoxicity (irritant potency) of toothpaste ingredients, of which some had known to have sensitizing properties.
Materials: From the wide variety of toothpaste ingredients, Xylitol, Propylene glycol (PEG), Sodium metaphosphate (SMP), Lemon, Peppermint, Fluoride, Cinnamon, and Triclosan and Sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) have been selected for evaluation of their cytotoxic properties.
Methods: Reconstructed human gingiva (RHG) were topically exposed to toothpaste ingredients at different concentrations.
Supervised Toothbrushing Programmes: Understanding Barriers and Facilitators to Implementation.
Community Dent Oral Epidemiol
January 2025
School of Clinical Dentistry, University of Sheffield, Sheffield, UK.
Objectives: Supervised toothbrushing programmes (STPs), whereby children brush their teeth at nursery or school with a fluoride toothpaste under staff supervision, are a clinically and cost-effective intervention to reduce dental caries. However, uptake is varied, and the reasons unknown. The aim was to use an implementation science approach to explore the perspectives of key stakeholders on the barriers and facilitators at each level of implementation of STPs.

College of Dentistry, King Saud bin Abdulaziz University for Health Sciences, Riyadh, SAU.
Pediatric dental health is critically impacted by enamel demineralization and early-stage caries, with remineralization therapies playing a vital role in preventing progression. This systematic review evaluates the effectiveness of various delivery methods for remineralization agents in pediatric patients aged 3-15 years, focusing on varnishes, gels, foams, and sprays. Studies were included if they were randomized controlled trials (RCTs), cohort studies, or case-control studies involving pediatric patients with early-stage caries or enamel demineralization, while studies with non-pediatric populations, unrelated treatments, or significant methodological flaws were excluded.

January 2025
Department of General Dentistry, School of Dental Medicine, Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, NY, United States.
Introduction: Previous studies have shown () esterase is a key mediator of dental composite biodegradation, which can contribute to recurrent caries. This study is to investigate the inhibitory effects of a novel Chemically-Modified-Curcumin (CMC 2.24) on esterase activities and related dental material biodegradation.

J Med Biochem
November 2024
Huzhou University, School of Engineering, Huzhou, Zhejiang, China.
Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the association between dental fluorosis occurrence in children and bone metabolism-related indicators, including bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BALP), osteocalcin (OC), matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-2, MMP-9, MMP-20), and parathyroid hormone (PTH).
Methods: A total of 189 cases of school-age children who underwent health examinations in our hospital were enrolled, according to the presence or absence of dental fluorosis. They were divided into the fluorosis group (n=97) and fluoride-free group (n=92), and the serum BALP, OC, MMP-2, MMP-9, MMP-20, and PTH levels of the two groups were compared and relevant clinical data were collected.
