Background Reduced bond strengths of resin composites to hypomineralised enamel increase restorative failure. Aim To investigate if the adhesion composite can be improved by pre‐treatments: infiltration, oxidative pre‐treatment followed a or pre‐treatment. Design Twenty‐one specimens in each five Groups: 1) Normal enamel; 2) Hypomineralised 3) pre‐treated with infiltrant, (Icon ® ); 4) 5.25% sodium hypochlorite then treatment infiltrant; 5) hypochlorite. A rod was bonded specimen using...
This study investigated the mechanical properties (hardness, compressive and diametral tensile strength) of two restorative reinforced glass–ionomer cements (GC Fuji IX GP Miracle Mix). The were compared after 1 day, week month storage in distilled water at 37 °C. Hardness testing (VHN) was carried out with a digital microhardness tester (load=50 g, dwell time=30 s) compressive/diametral strength (MPa) conducted based upon British Standard Specification for Glass–Ionomer Cements (BS 6039:...
Nitrous oxide in oxygen (N 2 O/O ) inhalation sedation is used less commonly by Singapore dentists than their counterparts the United Kingdom and States. Using this technique, trained often perform dual roles of a sedationist an operating dentist. This paper describes mechanism action N O highlights modern gas delivery system dentistry. The built-in safety features unique helps to ensure that patient-specific therapeutic dosages are effectively safely administered dentists. Existing evidence...
Parents of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) may have concerns fluoride/silver content in silver diammine fluoride (SDF).To compare parental acceptance SDF and dental fear between without ASD.Three hundred parents were enrolled. Demographics, history, recorded. Subjects viewed an educational video completed survey about including the following: (a) overall acceptance, (b) aesthetic by tooth location, (c) concerns, (d) its use as a general anaesthesia (GA) alternative. Descriptive,...
Despite development of new technologies for caries control, tooth decay in primary teeth remains a major global health problem. Caries risk assessment (CRA) models toddlers and preschoolers are rare. Among them, almost all use dental factors (e.g., past experience) to predict future risk, with limited clinical/community applicability owing relatively uncommon visits compared frequent medical during the first year life. The objective this study was construct evaluate prediction using...
To explore oral health-related knowledge, abilities, attitudes, practices, and barriers of pediatric oncology nurses at an Asian children's hospital.A cross-sectional study was conducted via a self-administered anonymized questionnaire. Data analyzed to summarize confidence, practice behaviors.All sixty-three responded. Fifteen participants had >80% the knowledge questions correct. Majority (97.3%) agreed on their roles in helping patients maintain health. However, 75.8% felt need for...
Ketamine sedation has not been reported to be widely used as a pharmacological behavioural management strategy facilitate the treatment of acute paediatric oro-dental trauma. The aim this study was investigate safety and effectiveness intramuscular ketamine for managing trauma in Emergency Department (ED).The database all procedural sedations performed hospital ED from 01 January 2014 31 December 2016 reviewed identify cases where administered dentists' Patient demographics epidemiological...
