AI Article Synopsis
- This scoping review aims to investigate the causes, clinical traits, and treatment methods for chromogenic staining of teeth, following the PRISMA 2022 guidelines.
- A systematic search across multiple medical databases led to the identification of 989 articles, with 21 ultimately included for analysis, highlighting that chromogenic bacteria can cause staining in 3.1 to 18.5% of cases, primarily resulting in black discoloration.
- The findings indicate a lack of comprehensive literature on this topic, emphasizing the need for further research into effective management strategies for these challenging stains linked to specific oral bacteria.
Article Abstract
Background: The purpose of this scoping review is to understand the etiological, clinical characteristics and treatment of chromogenic staining of teeth and the various management strategies reported in literature. This SR was performed in accordance with the PRISMA 2022 guidelines and was registered in the PROSPERO database (CRD42024565446).
Methods: A systematic electronic search on databases like Scopus, Medline, EMBASE, CINAHL, ProQuest and Web of Science from inception to July 2024 was performed. Two independent reviewers ran the search strategy in the mentioned databases.
Results: A total of 989 articles were obtained from various databases. 21 were included for data extraction of which 2 were case reports, 1 was case series and 18 were research articles. The prevalence of staining due to chromogenic bacteria reported from the included studies ranged from 3.1 to 18.5%. All these studies reported on the typical black color of staining of teeth.
Conclusion: This scoping review reveals sparsity in existing literature regarding the etiological, clinical characteristics and management of chromogenic staining of teeth. Though the role of peculiar oral microbiota is well established, evidence regarding the management strategies to combat these recalcitrant staining remains a strong research question.

Shear bond strength evaluation of bioactive restorative materials on pretreated carious dentin-influence on silver diamine fluoride, potassium iodide, and glutathione.
J Conserv Dent Endod
November 2024
Department of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics, Subharti Dental College and Hospital, Swami Vivekanand Subharti University, Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, India.
Background: Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) has gained popularity for its caries-arresting properties, yet its tendency to cause esthetic concerns due to black-staining limits its widespread acceptance.
Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate and compare the shear bond strength of Activa BioActive and Giomer restorative material with different protocols of SDF pretreatment on carious dentin.
Materials And Methods: Ninety-two extracted teeth were decoronated at the cementoenamel junction, sectioned 1 mm into dentin, mounted in acrylic resin and randomly divided into four ( = 8) control and six ( = 10) experimental groups.
Advancements in Minimally Invasive Techniques in Pediatric Dentistry: A Review.
Cureus
January 2025
Dental Public Health, University College London, London, GBR.
Minimally invasive dentistry (MID) has revolutionized pediatric dental care by emphasizing the preservation of healthy tooth structures, reducing treatment-related trauma, and improving patient compliance. This narrative review explores advancements in MID techniques, including silver diamine fluoride (SDF), resin infiltration, atraumatic restorative treatment (ART), bioactive materials, laser-assisted therapies, and three-dimensional (3D) printing technologies. These approaches prioritize early diagnosis, prevention, and conservative management, aligning with patient-centered and sustainable practices.

Department of Restorative Dentistry, Faculty of Dentistry, Thammasat University, 99 M. 18, Paholyothin Road, Klong Luang, Pathum Thani 12120, Thailand.
This study assessed the susceptibility to staining and surface roughness of white-spot lesions (WSLs) treated with resin infiltration (RIT) and microabrasion (MA) under simulated aging through thermocycling in red wine. Seventy-eight extracted human premolars with artificial WSLs were divided into three groups: untreated WSLs (control), RIT-treated (ICON, DMG), and MA-treated (Opalustre, Ultradent). Each group was further split: one subgroup immersed in artificial saliva and the other thermocycled in red wine.

A novel water-soluble root canal filling material based on sodium iodide (NaI) has been developed to overcome the limitations of existing iodine-based formulations. However, the biological stability of this approach in animal studies remains unverified. This study evaluated the biocompatibility of NaI compared to commercial root canal filling materials (Calcipex II and Vitapex) in pulpectomized canine teeth to assess its clinical applicability.
