The secretion of salivary alpha-amylase (sAA) is more associated with psychoneuroendocrinological response to stress than the flow rate and age. aim this cross sectional study build an explanatory model based on patterns relationship between age 20-39 in resting stimulated saliva under no stressful condition healthy volunteers. Both were collected from 40 subjects. sAA values log-transformed, normality assumption was verified Shapiro-Wilk test reliability measurements estimated by Pearsons'...

Abstract Purpose The use of large language models (LLMs) in generative artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly increasing dentistry. However, their reliability yet to be fully founded. This study aims evaluate the diagnostic accuracy, clinical applicability, and patient education potential LLMs paediatric dentistry, by evaluating responses six LLMs: Google AI’s Gemini Advanced, OpenAI’s ChatGPT-3.5, -4o -4, Microsoft’s Copilot. Methods Ten open-type questions, relevant dentistry were posed...

Numerous studies investigating oxidative stress in saliva relation to dental caries and treatment focus on parameters such as total antioxidant capacity malondialdehyde. This study is the first utilize 8-isoprostane a salivary biomarker assess both treatment. Salivary properties are also evaluated. The innovation of this lies its unique approach: although these have been examined individually past research, evaluate them conjunction with stress. A 26 children 20 caries-free aged between 4 12...

Abstract – Lesch–Nyhan syndrome (LNS) is an X‐linked disorder originating from deficiency of the enzyme hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase. It characterized by neurological manifestations, including dramatic symptom compulsive self‐mutilation, which results in destruction oral and perioral tissues. Several drug trials have been administered to improve severe self‐destructive behaviour, with questionable effectiveness. Invasive treatment approaches, such as extraction teeth...

Crowns are applicable on primary teeth with extensive caries, cervical decalcification, developmental defects, interproximal caries extending beyond line angles, and following pulpotomy or pulpectomy.Until now, prefabricated crowns, i.e., stainless-steel crowns (SSCs), pre-veneered SSC, all ceramic/porcelain/zirconia have been available in a range of sizes to match the first second molar teeth.This case report illustrates clinical use computer-aided design manufacturing technology (CAD/CAM)...

Recommendations against direct pulp capping (DPC) for carious primary teeth are based on old, low level evidence. This study investigates the medium to long-term clinical and radiographic outcomes of such treatment.Each 62 3-9 year old children with any deep, molar cavity was included if a exposure occurred during caries excavation. Exclusion criteria were irreversible damage/uncontrolled hemorrhage. Using rubber-dam, fast setting calcium hydroxide (CH) tooth restoration placed. Patients...

Short root anomaly (SRA) is a developmental in which the affected teeth present morphologically normal crowns and short, round roots. The exact cause of SRA unknown. A case an 11-year-old female patient with described. presented roots all permanent but first molars. Maxillary lateral incisors severe resorption mobility. Treatment plan included preservation maxillary by splinting them to their adjacent using stainless steel coaxial wire. custom mouthguard for dental trauma protection was also...

Over the last years, diverse commercial resin-based composites have dominated as dental filling materials. The purpose of present study was to determine organic and inorganic eluates from five restorative materials using GC/MS ICP–OES compare effect on cell survival human gingival fibroblasts a conventional bioactive resin. Five commercially available were employed for this study: ActivaTM Bioactive Restorative, ENA HRi, Enamel plus HRi Biofunction, Fuji II LC Capsule, IX Capsule. Disks that...

The aim of the study was to assess maternal knowledge about oral health practices for children along with hygiene perceptions mothers during pregnancy in city Thessaloniki, Greece.This cross-sectional conducted among 300 newly delivered who were admitted obstetrician/gynecological (OB/GYN) University Clinic Greece, give birth. A three-part, self-reported, 40-item questionnaire designed, collecting socioeconomic data, perceptions, and regarding their relation children's health. Collected data...

Two sampling devices that allow saliva collection through absorption to a cotton roll (Salivette®-method) or small pellets (VectaSpinTM Micro [VSM]-method) were studied. Any loss of salivary alpha-amylase (sAA) activity in relation the volume absorbed and harvested by centrifugation was examined. A pooled sample prepared from stimulated whole (collected drooling) 30 subjects used. Three different volumes (2.9 ml, 1.5 0.8 ml) tested on rolls two (0.03 0.015 pellets. The sAA determined...

Natural rubber latex is found in numerous medical and dental products. Adverse reactions patients practitioners have significantly increased since the introduction of universal precautions for infection control. These range from contact dermatitis to potentially life-threatening hypersensitivity. Patients with a history spina bifida, urogenital anomalies, multiple surgical procedures, allergic or atopy, health care personnel production workers are at risk allergy. Diagnosis based on...
