Salivary and urinary assessment of fluoride and silver ion concentrations after silver diamine fluoride application in children: a prospective cohort study
ConclusionSalivary and urinary F and Ag ions concentrations elevated significantly at 24  h following SDF applications in children. A significant high recovery of these ions in urine indicates minimal systemic absorption, thus intermittent topical application of 38% SDF has a minimal risk of toxicity.

Progression of proximal caries in primary molars using the radiographic ICDAS: a retrospective cohort study
ConclusionsProgressions of the initial enamel proximal caries were significantly different among primary molars at the average 18.3-month follow-up. The median survival period of the enamel proximal caries was more extended than that of dentine but without statistical difference. These results provide essential information for dentists regarding an appropriate appointment for bitewing examinations. (Source: European Archives of Paediatric Dentistry)

Effect of weight satisfaction on adolescent facial and dental satisfaction
ConclusionsWhile dental satisfaction was not influenced by corporeal characteristics, facial satisfaction was influenced by dental and body weight satisfaction. Obese adolescents had low facial satisfaction. (Source: European Archives of Paediatric Dentistry)

Tensile bond strength between paediatric prefabricated zirconia crowns and primary maxillary incisors when using various types of luting cements: an in vitro study
ConclusionTypes of luting cement influenced the tensile bond strength between PZCs and primary maxillary incisors. The bioactive cement showed higher tensile bond strength than the resin cement and RMGIC. (Source: European Archives of Paediatric Dentistry)

Self-perceived oral health and orofacial aesthetics of cleft patients
ConclusionThis study found differences in self-perceived dental aesthetics: CL/P patients are less satisfied than non-affected controls. CLAP patients are least satisfied, but satisfaction increases with age. (Source: European Archives of Paediatric Dentistry)

Three-dimensional evaluation of interproximal contacts of permanent dentition: a cone beam computed tomography study
ConclusionThe CBCT-based three-dimensional assessment of the inter-proximal contact areas of the permanent dentition is representative of the OXIS classification. The occlusal level contact was predominantly representative of the overall type of the contact. (Source: European Archives of Paediatric Dentistry)

The ectopic mandibular canines can start tooth formation in three different locations: a case series study based on single orthopantomograms from 47 individuals
ConclusionThe study explained that the canine axis could divide cases of ectopic canines into three groups according to the location from where tooth formation starts. For getting closer to the pattern of the ectopic canine eruption, it is necessary to analyse series of orthopantomograms taken from the same individual over several years.

Clinical effectiveness of pit and fissure sealants in primary and permanent teeth of children and adolescents: an umbrella review
ConclusionConsidering the limitations of this umbrella review, sealants are more effective for caries prevention in children ’s permanent molars compared to no treatment. Future well-implemented RCTs are needed to draw reliable conclusions on the clinical effectiveness of sealants in primary and permanent teeth of children and adolescents.

Comparative evaluation of cervical pulpotomy and pulpectomy for primary molars with irreversible pulpitis: a multicentre randomised controlled trial
ConclusionIn primary molars with IP, both simple/conservative cervical pulpotomy using calcium-enriched mixture cement and pulpectomy using Metapex demonstrated high clinical/radiographic success rates. No significant differences were observed between the two treatment modalities. These findings suggest that both techniques can be considered effective treatment options for managing primary molars with IP.Trial registration numberTrial registration number: IRCT20201226049838N1, retrospectively registered on 12 January 2021.

Oral findings in paediatric patients with severe heart, liver, and kidney failure prior to organ transplantation
ConclusionChildren with liver or heart disease seem to have a higher combined dmft/DMFT score, indicating a higher prevalence of caries compared to children with kidney disease. Prevention of dental caries, along with promoting a good oral hygiene routine and regular check-ups, is suggested in these patient groups. (Source: European Archives of Paediatric Dentistry)

Gingival thickness and gingival width in children: a cross-sectional study utilizing ultrasonography
ConclusionsGT and GW present significant associations with arch and tooth-type. Findings from this study fulfil the further understanding of GT and GW of paediatric patients that are investigated sparsely throughout the literature and demonstrate an accurate, painless and simple method to map the gingiva.

Comparative evaluation of volumetric changes following rotary and hand files ’ canal preparation of primary maxillary canine: an in vitro nano-CT analysis
ConclusionWithin the limitations of the current study, rotary file systems produced a significant enlargement of canals as compared to hand files. Kedo-SG blue created a uniform preparation of the canal cervico-apically. Kedo-S plus files were prepared more coronally with minimal preparation apically as close to the preparation of hand files.Trial registrationTrial registration number: IHEC/SDC/PEDO-2103/22/651, Date of registration: 2022.
