The plaque reducing efficacy of oil pulling with sesame oil: a randomized-controlled clinical study.
Clin Oral Investig
January 2025
University Hospital for Conservative Dentistry and Periodontology, Medical University of Innsbruck, Innsbruck, 6020, Austria.
Objectives: To compare the plaque reducing efficacy of oil pulling with sesame oil compared to distilled water in a randomized, controlled, examiner-blinded parallel group study.
Materials And Methods: Forty probands without advanced periodontal disease of the University Hospital for Restorative Dentistry and Periodontology, Medical University of Innsbruck (Austria) were randomized allocated to test- (sesame oil) or control group (distilled water) and asked to pull daily in the morning for eight weeks with their allotted fluid for 15 min. Rustogi Modified Navy Plaque Index (RMNPI) and gingival bleeding index were assessed at baseline and after four and eight weeks.
Design and Efficacy of Custom-Made Cleaning Splints for the Approximal Plaque Removal-A Laboratory Study.
J Clin Med
December 2024
Department of Prosthodontics, Medical Faculty, Heidelberg University, 69120 Heidelberg, Germany.
Cleaning splints (CSs) can facilitate interdental brush (IDB) insertion and guide IDBs during cleaning movement. Cleaning efficacy with and without CSs was to be assessed and compared for a fully dentate (FD) and a partially edentulous (PE) situation. For two maxillary typodont models simulating either an FD situation or a PE situation with every second tooth missing, suitable IDBs were selected and each cleaning splint was designed and fabricated by 3D-printing.

Article Synopsis
- A systematic review and meta-analysis assessed how accurately Artificial Intelligence (AI) diagnoses approximal carious lesions on bitewing radiographs, using data from multiple controlled trials.
- Out of 2,442 studies, 21 met criteria, revealing AI's pooled sensitivity at 0.94 and specificity at 0.91, indicating it is good at finding caries and excluding healthy teeth.
- While AI shows promise in initial screening for caries detection, dental professionals should confirm positive findings to avoid unnecessary treatments and ensure accurate diagnosis.
Clinical Performance of Glass Ionomer Cement in Load-Bearing Restorations: A Systematic Review.
Med Sci Monit
February 2024
Department of Prosthetic Dental Science, College of Dentistry, Jazan University, Jazan, Saudi Arabia.
Glass ionomer cement (GIC) is a self-adhesive dental restorative material composed of a polyacrylic acid liquid and fluoro-aluminosilicate glass powder. It is commonly used for cementation during dental restoration. This study aimed to systematically review the existing literature regarding the clinical performance of GIC in load-bearing dental restorations.
