The products exhibiting the greatest tensile strength values were those systems which provided measuring devices enabling the dentist to more accurately control the amounts of material to be mixed. Statistical analysis supported this finding; the means of the powder/liquid and paste/liquid systems formed a group that was significantly different from the five paste/paste systems. This indicates that accurate measurement of components could represent one important factor in the ultimate strength of a composite resin. There was no apparent correlation between average density and mean diametral tensile strength for the seven systems compared in this study.

Bone defects present a significant challenge in orthopedics and trauma surgery, necessitating innovative approaches to stimulate effective bone regeneration. This study investigated the potential of lithium-doped calcium silicate (LiCS) cement to enhance bone regeneration and modulate the immune microenvironment to promote tissue repair. We synthesized a LiCS ceramic powder and performed comprehensive analyses of its physicochemical properties, including phase composition, morphology, setting time, and mechanical strength.

Background: A complete and thorough understanding of head and neck anatomy by dental hygienists is fundamental for performing successful dental hygiene procedures in all clinical settings. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to assess the opinion of a population of dental hygiene students about the educational methods, their perceptions of the tooth drawing module, and their opinion about the content of Anatomy curriculum in an Italian University.

Material And Methods: A comprehensive survey about was developed and electronically distributed to the dental hygiene students.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to compare the compressive and tensile strength of two conventional glass ionomer cements, zirconia-reinforced GIC, and silver amalgam.
  • Eighty samples from four groups were tested for compressive strength (CS) and diametral tensile strength (DTS) using specific apparatus and standards.
  • Results showed that silver amalgam had the highest CS and DTS, while zirconia-reinforced GIC performed better than conventional GICs, suggesting it has superior mechanical properties, but further research is needed for long-term efficacy.

Physical/mechanical and antibacterial properties of composite resin modified with selenium nanoparticles.

BMC Oral Health

October 2024

Department of Dental Biomaterials, Faculty of Dentistry, Mansoura University, El Gomhouria St, Mansoura, Dakahlia, 35516, Egypt.

Background: Accumulation of biofilm over composite resin restorations is one of the principal causes of recurrent caries. Therefore, this study aimed to develop antibacterial composite resins by crystalline selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs), assessing the antibacterial, mechanical, and physical properties of the composite resin after SeNPs incorporation.

Methods: SeNPs were synthesized via a green method.

Bone grafts are commonly used in orthopedic and dental surgeries to facilitate bone repair and regeneration. A new type of bone graft, polycaprolactone-infiltrated three dimensionally printed hydroxyapatite (3DP HA/PCL), was previously developed by infiltrating polycaprolactone (PCL) into preformed three-dimensional-printed hydroxyapatite (3DP HA) that was fabricated using binder jetting technology combined with a low-temperature phase transformation process. However, when producing small granules, which are often used for bone grafting, issues of granule agglomeration emerged, complicating the application of this method.
