Background: Artificial intelligence technologies are increasingly integrated into dental practice, offering potential improvements in diagnostic accuracy, treatment planning, and patient outcomes. However, the extent and quality of evidence supportin...
Background: Commercial oral care products commonly incorporate synthetic antimicrobials such as cetylpyridinium chloride (Cetyl Cl.), L-Arginine (L-arg.), and stannous fluoride (SnF2). Although effective against oral pathogens, these agents are often...
Background/Objectives: Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors are commonly prescribed anti-hypertensive agents. However, one of their effects is reducing the breakdown of a number of pro-inflammatory mediators, including bradykinin and substa...
Background: Antimicrobial resistance in oral pathogens drives interest in natural alternatives such as essential oils (EOs). Methods: The chemical composition and in vitro antimicrobial activity of Origanum vulgare, Thymus vulgaris, and Lavandula ang...
Background/Objectives: Dental anxiety has been demonstrated to exert a significant influence on the frequency of treatment, the degree of patient compliance, and the long-term implications for oral health. The objective of this study was to evaluate...
Acrylic resin is widely used in removable dental prostheses due to its biocompatibility, low cost, and ease of handling; however, it presents mechanical limitations and a high susceptibility to microbial colonization, particularly by Candida albicans...
This study aimed to explore the added value and usage of laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) in conjunction with continuous tissue (arterial) oxygen saturation (SO2) monitoring, electrical pulp testing (EPT), cold stimulation (CS) testing, and apical X-ray...
The rapid digitization of dentistry is significantly transforming fixed prosthodontics, a discipline highly dependent on technical precision. This narrative review, incorporating a structured literature search, provides a critical overview of how dig...
Background: Early childhood caries (ECC) is a common chronic disease in young children, influenced by multiple factors, including the activity of bacteria and other microorganisms, diet, and immune response. Pro-inflammatory cytokines like interleuki...
Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare the flexural strength, flexural modulus, hardness, and surface roughness of one brand each of 3D-printed and heat-cured acrylic resin materials after they were immersed in various disinfection solut...
