The cervical wedge-shaped lesion in teeth: a light and electron microscopic studyEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions: The cervical wedge is shaped by interactions between acid wear, abrasion and dentinal sclerosis. No histopathological evidence of abfraction was found. Clinical diagnosis, conservation and restoration of non-carious cervical lesions need to take into account the extent of sclerotic dentine beneath wedge-shaped lesions.

Alignment of transposed mandibular lateral incisor and canine using removable appliancesEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
The purpose of this paper was to present the management of a rarely encountered transposition anomaly involving the mandibular permanent lateral incisor and the canine. In the literature, the treatment of this type of anomaly involves fixed orthodontic appliances. The treatment of the present case, however, was performed with removable appliances. Transposition of the permanent mandibular right lateral incisor and the permanent mandibular right canine was detected in a 12 year old girl. The primary mandibular right canine was extracted to enable the distal movement of the permanent lateral incisor by the eruption force of ...

Complete or ultraconservative removal of decayed tissue in unfilled teethEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Background: The treatment of deep dental decay has traditionally involved removal of all the soft demineralized dentine before a filling is placed. However, this has been challenged in three groups of studies which involve sealing soft caries into the tooth. The three main groups either remove no caries and seal the decay into the tooth, remove minimal (ultraconservative) caries at the entrance to a cavity and seal the remaining caries in, or remove caries in stages over two visits some months apart to allow the pulp time to lay down reparative dentine (the stepwise excavation technique).Objectives: To test the null hypoth...

Influence of material and diameter of pre-fabricated posts on maxillary central incisors restored with crownEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Summary Numerous research works have studied the effect of post-design parameters on the mechanical behaviour of restored teeth without reaching any clear conclusions. Previous works by the authors ascertained the effect of material and post-dimensions for non-crowned restored teeth. The aim of this work was to study the effect of post-material and diameter for crowned teeth. First, an experimental fracture strength test was performed on eighteen extracted human maxillary central incisors. Teeth were decoronated, treated endodontically and restored (nine with glass fibre posts and nine with stainless steel posts). Several ...

Implementation of new software for fast screening of cell compatibility on surface modifications using low-contrast time-lapsed microscopyEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract Assessment of cell adhesion and cell size provides valuable information on surface biocompatibility. However, most investigations on cell morphology dynamics are time and resource consuming, of rather descriptive character and lack procedures for appropriate quantification. The aim of the study was to develop a software programme which allows automated cell segmentation and identification as well as calculation and further processing of cell size in low-contrast images. The software utilises modified edge detection and morphologic operations for automatic cell analysis in light microscopy images. In...

Risk perception and water fluoridation support and opposition in AustraliaEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Conclusion: Outrage factors are important aspects of the public's perception of risk in relation to water fluoridation. Given that water fluoridation appears to be a low-risk, high-outrage controversy, efforts to mitigate the level of public outrage, rather than continuing to deny possible hazards, may offer a worthwhile strategy in gaining public acceptance for the extension of water fluoridation.

A case of obstructive sleep apnoea with anterior cervical osteophytesEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Summary Osteophytes of the cervical spine are usually seen in elderly adults. When prominent, they have been blamed for dysphagia, cough, dysphonia and dyspnoea. This paper reports on an obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) patient with cervical spinal osteophytes, one cause of airway obstruction. A 75-year-old male complained of pronounced snoring. The diagnosis was mild OSA, apnoea hypopnoea index was 9·4. Patient reported no restrictions in neck movements, experiences of neck pain or neck trauma. Previously, patient underwent a tonsillectomy due to discomfort in the pharyngeal region. A lateral cephalometric image was taken ...

Conclusion. In regions without resorption, spatial organization of the periodontal membrane of primary teeth was similar to that of permanent teeth, although the number and distribution of epithelial cells and fibers differed.

Conclusion. Within the limitations of this systematic review with meta-analysis, the results of the clinical in situ trials indicate a short-term remineralization effect of CPP-ACP.

Further randomized control trials are needed in order to confirm these initial results in vivo. PMID: 19701818 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Specimens of the first two groups were air-dried for 5 or 10s (DH5s and DH10s), respectively, whereas specimens of the third group were left in the hydrated condition (H). For each group, Force curves were characterized by contact-mode AFM and the adhesion force (Fad) ...

Abstract: Objectives: To evaluate the depth of wear gaps of new self-adhesive cements after toothbrush abrasion and ACTA wear test.Methods: Luting spaces (325±25μm width, 2mm depth) were produced in Empress 2 ceramic blocks with a diamond saw to obtain flat substrate segments for toothbrush abrasion (n=24) and ACTA wear (n=27). After etching and silanization, the slits were filled with 8 self-adhesive cements, 2 conventional resin cements and 1 flowable composite, stored for 2 weeks in distilled water at 37°C and planished to the cement level. Toothbrush abrasion was carried out in a toothbrush simulator (Willytec, Germ...
