Objective: It was aimed to determine the changes in dentists' approaches and their knowledge level towards preventive dentistry treatment of dental caries. Material Methods: Two different questionnaires were conducted on times face face. While main survey carried out 2010 with 200 dentists practicing Istanbul, supporting also applied 2024 414 attending FDI World Dental Congress. The data collected analyzed statistically. Results: who participated born between 1951-1960 (29%) they working...
This study aims to investigate the impact of photobiomodulation (PBM) and/or azithromycin (AZM) therapy in combination with full-mouth subgingival instrumentation (FSI) on receptor activator nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) levels RANKL/OPG ratios gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) patients stage III-IV grade C periodontitis.
Abstract This in vitro study evaluated three dentine replacement materials: Biodentine, Ketac Molar and TheraBaseCa. Specimens of each material ( n = 19) were prepared for investigations hardness, calcium release, pH water sorption–solubility. SEM EDX analysis also used these investigations. One‐way ANOVA robust tests normally non‐normally distributed data statistical analysis, respectively. TheraBaseCa showed the lowest hardness p < 0.001), while Biodentine had highest release 0.001)....
Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect additional finishing and polishing sequences on a new structural colored (Omnichroma) conventional dental composite (Estelite Sigma Quick). Materials Method: Forty disk-shaped specimens were prepared from each assigned four groups in terms sequences. Group 1: Mylar strip (control). 2: Abrasive disks. 3: After abrasive disks, application felt brush with paste. 4: Then, single-bottle adhesive applied as surface sealer. Hardness roughness...
Aim: Although the shelf life is a key property of dental composites and bonding agents, these materials may often be used in simple procedures after expiration. In this study, microleakage two year expired non-expired (Filtek Ultimate Universal A2 Enamel, 3M ESPE, USA, Tetric N Ceram A2, Ivoclar Vivadent, Schaan, Liechtenstein) universal system (Single Bond Universal, USA) was examined. Materials Methods: 40 freshly extracted human molars, standardized Class II cavities (buccolingual...
Objective: The aim of this study is to assess the attitudes dental students toward dentistry and difficulties they face during their preclinical operative education, especially its practical aspect. Methods: About 100 third-year answered a paper-based survey questionnaire (response rate = 90.90%), which was prepared distributed in April 2019. data were analyzed using SPSS version 22 (IBM SPSS, Turkey), one-way ANOVA test used determine students’ competence for patient treatment based on...
Objective:The aim of this study was to compare the microhardness, degree conversion, and water sorption/solubility two-and three-year expired dental composites (Filtek Ultimate Universal) with non-expired equivalent. Methods:The prepared specimens (diameter =8 mm; thickness =2 mm) were subjected Vickers hardness testing on top bottom surfaces, conversion calculated based bottom/top ratio.Further, sorption solubility measured after immersion in distilled for 1, 7, 28 d.For statistical...
Objective: This study aims to evaluate the effect of chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX), Listerine, and boric acid (BA), applied three different restorative dental materials, on Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) adhesion.Methods: A total 120 samples were prepared in study: Composite (Group CR; n=40), glass ionomer cement GIC; n=40) compomer C; n=40).The upper lower surface roughness measured.After bacterial adhesions, each group was separated into four subgroups (n=10).Three mouthwash distilled...
Genellikle estetik problemlere sebep olan orta hat diastemalarına sıklıkla rastlanılmaktadır. Pek çok tedavi seçeneği bulunsa da direkt kompozit rezinlerle restorasyonu tercih edilmektedir. Diastema kapatılmasında rezinler noninvaziv bir yöntemdir. Kısa sürede tamamlanan restorasyonların diğer seçeneklerine göre pahalı olmaması ve tatmin edici sonuçlar vermesi bu seçeneğinin edilmesine yol açmaktadır. Bu olgu raporunda diasteması bulunan iki vakanın tamamlanmıştır. Tedavi bitiminde elde...
