Statement Of Problem: Shade selection is a challenge in restorative dentistry. While single-shade composite resins may simplify this process, whether the color mismatch between this composite resin and the substrate is within acceptable levels to ensure successful outcomes is unclear.
Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to assess the influence of background and surrounding shade, thickness, and proximity to the surrounding on color mismatch when shaded and single-shade composite resins are used in the center of an enamel layer.
Material And Methods: Two-layer specimens mimicking dentin (the background) and enamel (the surrounding and center) were prepared. Two shades were used for the background and the surrounding layer (OA1/A1 and OA3/A3). At the Ø3-mm center, 2 single-shade composite resins were placed, Omnichroma (OM) and Admira Fusion x-tra (FU), and also shaded composite resins A1, WE, A3, and C2. For the OA1/A1 background and surrounding, shades A1 and WE served as positive controls, while the A3 and C2 were negative controls. For OA3/A3, these controls were reversed. Two enamel layer thicknesses were evaluated (0.5- and 1.0-mm). Reflectance measurements were made at 0.0, 1.0, 2.0, and 2.5 mm from the center. Color differences were calculated between those at 2.5 mm and at other distances (ΔE ΔE and ΔE). Data analysis employed a 4-way repeated measure ANOVA with Bonferroni corrections for the pair-wise comparisons (α=.05).
Results: Background and surrounding shade, central shade, distance, and thickness affected color mismatch (P<.05). For the OA1/A1 specimens, single-shade color mismatch values were found between both the positive and negative controls (P<.05). For the OA3/A3 specimens, the color mismatch did not differ significantly from that of negative controls (P>.05). No difference was found between ΔE and ΔE, but each was distinct from ΔE. Thickness did not affect the color mismatch of the single-shade composite resins (P<.05).
Conclusions: Single-shade composite resins for enamel replacement showed higher color mismatches compared with positive controls.

Bond strength to eroded dentin as per chlorhexidine use for controlling erosive wear or interface aging: an 18-month assay.
Braz Oral Res

Universidade de São Paulo - USP, School of Dentistry, Department of Operative Dentistry, São Paulo, SP, Brazil.
The aim of this study was to assess the effect of a chlorhexidine digluconate solution (CHX) applied as an antiproteolytic agent for controlling erosive tooth wear or as part of the adhesive treatment on long-term bond strength to eroded dentin. Dentin specimens were abraded with a 600-grit silicon carbide (SiC) paper for 1 min (sound dentin - S), subsequently treated with 2% CHX for 1 min (with excess removed, followed by a 6-hour rest), and eroded by exposure to Coca-Cola for 5 min, three times a day, for 5 days (CHX-treated and eroded dentin - CHXE), or only eroded (eroded dentin - E). The specimens were acid-etched (15 s), rinsed (30 s), dried (15 s), and rehydrated with 1.

Background: This study aimed to assess the influence of different pretreatment protocols and antioxidants application on the shear bond strength (SBS) of universal adhesive to sound (SoD) and caries-induced dentin (CID).
Methods: One hundred and twenty posterior teeth had their occlusal enamel removed, then the specimens were divided into two main groups according to dentin substrates; SoD and CID, three subgroups according to pretreatments protocols control (no pretreatment), NaOCl-treated, and Er, Cr:YSGG-treated and two divisions according to antioxidant application (with and without sodium ascorbate (SA) application). All-Bond Universal (ABU) universal adhesives was applied in self-etch (SE) mode then resin composite discs were built.

Professor of Conservative Dentistry, Faculty of Dentistry, Cairo University, Giza, Egypt.
Background: Minimally invasive dentistry is now becoming the forefront of restorative dentistry, involving less traumatic treatment protocols, conservation of tooth structure and surrounding tissues, enhancing the long-term survivability of treated teeth, and improving the overall quality of life for patients.
Objective: The current case report was conducted to evaluate acquiring deep subgingival interproximal carious lesions by the mean of thermacut bur gingivectomy, in terms of patient satisfaction through pain evaluation, Bleeding on Probing, Pocket Depth, Crestal Bone Level evaluation, and restoration evaluation using modified USPHS criteria.
Material And Methods: A patient with a deep proximal cavity in the posterior tooth was thoroughly examined and underwent Thermacut Bur Gingivectomy (TBG) after caries removal followed by direct resin composite restoration of the prepared cavity.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the in vitro effects of coffee exposure on the color and roughness of conventional and bulk-fill resin composites, with and without surface pre-reacted glass-ionomer (S-PRG) filler.
Methodology: Forty-eight cylindrical samples (Ø6 mm × 2 mm) were prepared and categorized as follows (n = 12 per group): conventional nano-hybrid (Tetric N-Ceram, Ivoclar); nano-hybrid with S-PRG filler (Beautifil II, Shofu); bulk-fill (Tetric N-Ceram Bulk Fill, Ivoclar); and bulk-fill with S-PRG filler (Beautifil Bulk Restorative, Shofu). The samples were assessed for surface roughness (Ra, μm), color coordinates (CIE Lb), and overall color change (ΔE, ΔE).
Analysis of the Influence of Manufacturing Technology on Selected Static, Fatigue and Morphological Properties of CFRP Composites.

Department of Non-Ferrous Metals, AGH University of Science and Technology, 30-059 Krakow, Poland.
The aim of this study was to compare the mechanical properties of carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites produced using three popular technologies. The tests were performed on composites produced from prepregs in an autoclave, the next variant is composites produced using the infusion method, and the third variant concerns composites produced using the vacuum-assisted hand lay-up method. For each variant, flat plates with dimensions of 1000 mm × 1000 mm were produced while maintaining similar material properties and fabric arrangement configuration.
