Abstract Background The present study aimed to investigate the patients’ perception of dental practice during COVID-19 outbreak, and whether pandemic will affect attendance orthodontic patients at practice. An online questionnaire, including Patient Health Questionnaire-4 (PHQ-4), was submitted Italian with items about their perceived risks when going dentist, concerns continuing treatment, onset temporomandibular disorders (TMD). Data were analyzed a chi-square test logistic regression...
Antimicrobial resistance is a growing phenomenon, often associated with the improper prescription of antibiotics, prescribed by those who do not follow guidelines for antibiotic stewardship. The aim this study was to evaluate current attitude towards prescribing and antimicrobial awareness among Italian dentists. An online questionnaire distributed dentists from September December 2021. composed three main sections. first part focused on demographic characteristics, second habits, third...
COVID-19 has severely impacted dentists, who are at a great risk of infection. This study aimed to investigate if dentists anxious about returning their daily activities, and what the perception is for orthodontists regarding orthodontic procedures. An online questionnaire, including Patient Health Questionnaire-4 (PHQ-4), was sent Italian during final days lockdown with items anxiety, fear, distress, perceived operators, concerns patients caused by working outbreak. Data were analyzed...
The difference in refractive index between the healthy enamel and demineralized area generates a lesion with milky white opaque appearance, clearly distinguishable from surrounding enamel. aim of this systematic review was to evaluate if infiltration technique is most efficient treatment resolve spot when compared remineralization microabrasion techniques. Population/Intervention/Comparison/Outcome question investigated: "in WS lesion, or treatments more less effective camouflage effect?."...
Background: Periodontal care, which was completely suspended during the peak of SARS-Cov-2 pandemic and delayed recurrently discontinued succeeding waves, must be safely provided in COVID-19 era. Objectives: The study aimed to provide recommendations on periodontal practice, optimizing safety, ergonomics, economic resources, management patients, ensuring continuity, timing, effectiveness care Methods: Reported protocols for dental practice context current evidence periodontitis treatment...
Root canal treatment represents a significant challenge as current cleaning and disinfection methodologies fail to remove persistent bacterial biofilms within the intricate anatomical structures. Recently, field of nanotechnology has emerged promising frontier with numerous biomedical applications. Among most notable contributions are nanoparticles, which possess antimicrobial, antifungal, antiviral properties. Nanoparticles cause destructuring walls, increasing permeability cell membrane,...
In this era of Big Data and the advancement sophisticated analytical techniques, financial industry has capacity to implement innovative technologies within their systems derive crucial insights about clientele vigilantly monitor activities. This landscape seen emergence rise two significant applications, namely, customer segmentation early warning systems. Therefore, study presents a systematic literature review on automation techniques with focus managing credit portfolio entities. The...
Abstract Objectives The present study aimed to investigate the dentists’ knowledge of risks from severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, and how it will impact their practice. Materials Methods An ad hoc self-administered anonymous questionnaire was submitted Italian dentists. Statistical Analysis Differences in rates were calculated using chi-square test. level significance set at p < 0.05. Results A total 849 dentists fully completed survey. Eighty-eight...
A plethora of systemic manifestations COVID-19 and adverse reactions to vaccines have been described in pediatric subjects. Therefore, the present systematic review primarily aimed assess prevalence macro-microscopic features oral lesions following SARS-CoV-2 infection, grading primary based on forms, The secondary aim was evaluate epidemiology, clinical appearance, histopathology WHO Emergency Use Listing approved EMA authorized vaccines, relation cases vaccine characteristics. study...
Abstract Objectives The present study aims to investigate the effect of COVID-19 pandemic on people's mental and physical balance, oral hygiene habits, type diet, perceived safety returning dentist, aesthetics with use masks. Materials Methods An online questionnaire was submitted Italian population between December 2020 January 2021. It sent via platforms included 21 questions. Statistical Analysis Differences in rates were calculated by using Chi-square test. level significance set at p...
The root canal anatomy is a complex space, and using single-cone obturation technique does not guarantee complete filling.This research aimed to evaluate the actual temperature of biosealer during phase inside new hot technique. In addition, this study evaluated penetration depth dentinal tubules.The current was concluded on two ex vivo experiments; former tested evaluation. latter examined biosealer.In study, 42 sec mandibular premolars were used, experiments carried out. first experiment,...
The present umbrella review aimed to assess the prevalence of cases diagnosed with lesions potentially due Titanium (alloy) and other metal nanoparticles released from dental implants implant-supported restorations, characterizing lesions’ macroscopic, imaging, microscopic features. Secondary aims were categorize reported as resembling or ascribable peri-implant mucositis peri-implantitis, reactive mucosa, hypersensitivity reactions, evaluate their relationship cases’, implants,...
Background: Endodontic treatment objectives comprise eliminating or decreasing bacterial load inside the complex endodontic space. Removing smear layer and debris becomes mandatory to achieve good three-dimensional (3D) cleaning. Aim: This study assesses difference in removal using 3D cleaning technique traditional syringe needle irrigation. The includes ultrasonic activation of intracanal-heated NaOCl. Materials Methods: Our current used single-rooted human mandibular premolar teeth test...
