Introduction: Self-adhesive resin cements (SARCs) are widely used for fixed prostheses. These cements and their eluted products may affect periodontal tissues. This study aimed to investigate the response of human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) to eluates from SARCs in vitro, simulating clinical conditions after prosthesis fixation, to gain insights into their potential effects on gingival health.
Methods: Two SARCs, RelyX U200 (RX) and Maxcem Elite Chroma (MC), were polymerised according to the manufacturer's protocols using various curing methods (light-cured, light-cured through 1- or 2 mm zirconia, and self-cured). HGFs were exposed to cement eluates at different concentrations. Cell viability, vitality, wound healing, and gene expression were assessed at different time points.
Results: Self-cured MC and MC cured through 2-mm zirconia (both undiluted and 1:5 dilution) significantly decreased HGFs' viability. Lower cell viability and vitality were detected in MC compared with RX. Wound healing was delayed in cells treated with MC cured through zirconia compared to those cured with direct light, whereas zirconia had no effect on cells treated with RX. The expression of NRF2, a key regulator of cellular defence against oxidative and toxic insults, showed an increasing trend in cells treated with MC compared to RX. This finding suggests that MC may induce more oxidative stress than RX, leading to a more pronounced inflammatory response in HGFs and aligning with the observed delay in wound healing.
Conclusion: The use of MC, especially when cured through zirconia, may negatively impact gingival tissue health, highlighting the importance of carefully selecting cement types and curing methods in clinical practice.
Clinical Relevance: This study highlights the potential risks of using MC, especially when cured through zirconia, which may impair gingival tissue health and delay wound healing. Proper choice of cement and curing methods is essential for optimal patient outcomes.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to report the management of chemoimmunotherapy-resistant ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) with iodine-125 (I-125) brachytherapy.
Methods: A 36-year-old man presented to the clinic with biopsy-proven OSSN that covered ∼70% of the corneal surface and extended to the 6 o'clock position of the inferior limbus of the OS. The visual acuity was 20/20 in the OD and 20/40 in the affected OS.

Polymerization shrinkage of composite resins affects the marginal closure of direct dental restorations. It is responsible for developing secondary caries and indirectly affects the survival rate of restorations. This study aims to investigate the null hypothesis, which states that there are no significant differences in the marginal microleakage of Class II restorations when examined in vitro using different dental adhesives, whether the restoration material used is a composite with glass fiber reinforcement or not.

Unlabelled: White spot lesions (WSLs) are demineralized lesions of the enamel that form in the presence of bacterial plaque, affecting the aesthetics by modifying the refractive index of the enamel, giving the characteristic "chalky" aspect. They have various causes, including fixed orthodontic treatments, improper hygiene, fluorosis and genetic factors.
Background/objectives: Considering the latest need for dental aesthetics and the popularization of fixed orthodontic treatments, the need to effectively treat WSLs has increased.

Objectives: The influence of printing parameters on the marginal and internal fit of three-dimensional (3D) printed interim fixed partial dentures (IFPDs) has been understudied. This investigation sought to elucidate the impact of printing orientation and post-curing time on these critical factors.
Methods: A total of 260 3-Unit IFDPs were printed using two different resins (130/NextDent C&B MFH and 130/ASIGA DentaTOOTH).
