Clinical Performance of Glass Ionomer Versus Resin Composite Restorations
Dental CariesThe aim of this randomised-controlled, single-blind, split-mouth, and single-centre clinical trial was to evaluate the 2-year clinical performances of a high-viscosity glass ionomer and nanohybrid composite resin in occlusal restorations on mandibular second molar teeth in patients at risk for salivary contamination.
Dental Cement in Post-operative Sensitivity: Randomized Clinical Trial
Restored Decayed Teeth and Post-operative SensitivityContext: CEMENT PBS CIMMO DTA® has physical and biological properties that classify it as a biocompatible material and inducer of biomineralization, attributes that qualify it as material as an indirect pulp capper in permanent tooth restorations. Objective: The present clinical study proposes the use of PBS CIMMO DTA® cement as an indirect pulp capper, in resin restorations composed of permanent molars and premolars. The objective was to minimize postoperative sensitivity arising from restorative procedures. Method: Randomized clinical trial with two arms, double blind, interventional, prospective. The sample consisted of 20 male patients, with an average age of 20 years. Totaling 70 teeth to be treated. The teeth were divided into two groups: Group R (Control Group, n = 35), treated with a standard restorative procedure. Group D (Study group n = 35), treated using CEMENT PBS CIMMO DTA®, as an indirect capper of the pulp wall. The evaluation was carried out by a masked examiner for both groups. Sensitivity tests were performed before the restorative procedure, at 48 hours, 7, 15 and 30 days after the procedure. The analysis included pain caused by thermal stimuli: Cold Test (TM); horizontal (TPH) and vertical (TPV) percussion; Bite Test (TM) and Pain Decline Time (DD) was measured. Measured using Visual Analog Scale (EVA).
Progression of Active Microcavitated Carious Lesions on Primary Molar Occlusal Surfaces
Dental Caries in ChildrenPit and Fissure Sealant1 moreObjective: To verify the progression of active microcavitated carious lesions on occlusal surfaces of primary molars after the orientation of the brushing technique associated with fluoride dentifrice compared to resin sealant, through a 12-month randomized clinical trial. Methodology: We selected 22 children from 4 to 9 years old from the public school system of the city of Juazeiro do Norte-Ceará, with at least one primary molar presenting an active caries lesion score 3 of the International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS). Randomization was performed en bloc and stratified by two conditions (age and caries experience). The selected teeth were divided into two groups: the first (G1) was submitted to brushing with fluoridated toothpaste; and the other group (G2) to the resin sealing technique, whose application of the material was performed under absolute or relative isolation, selected through a second randomization. The molars undergoing treatment were evaluated at 6- and 12-month returns. Caries progression was evaluated according to the type of treatment, dental group and sealant retention by the Chi-square test. For cost analysis, the variance test (ANOVA) was used.
Resin Bulkfill Dual-Cured of Proximal Restoration. Clinical Trial
Dental RestorationDental CariesObjective: To evaluate the immediate clinical performance using FDI criteria in occlusal and proximal lesions restored with dual polymerization bulkfill composite resin. Materials and methods: Experimental, clinical, controlled, randomized, double-blind study. For the evaluation of Fill-up! (FU) will be clinically compared to the control groups of a conventional Tetric N-Ceram (TB) RBK and Filtek z350 (z350) conventional composite resin. The adhesive process will be carried out under absolute isolation, of selective etching of 37% orthophosphoric acid enamel before applying the respective adhesive according to the trademark of the composite resins. The evaluation will be to 30 days, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months using the modified FDI criteria of postoperative sensitivity, marginal staining, color, marginal adaptation and anatomy, being 1: Excellent, 2: Good, 3: Fair, 4: unsatisfactory and 5: unacceptable. The non-parametric Kruskal Wallis test and Friedman (95% significance) used to compare the criteria.

LifE Style, Nutrition and Oral Health in Care Givers (LENTO)
Nutrition Disorders in Old AgeCaries,Dental6 moreThe LENTO study sample includes the caregivers and their clients living in eastern Finland. The aims of this study are to study the nutritional status, oral health, coping, functional capacity and quality of life to find out how individual nutrition and oral health counseling received for caregivers affect on the nutritional status and oral health of caregivers and their clients develop an operating model to maintain good nutrition and oral health.
Post-operative Sensitivity in Composite Restorations
Class II Dental CariesSensitivity1 moreParticipants will be divided into groups. In group A, Composite restoration done using oblique incremental technique. In group B, Bulk-fill technique was used. VAS scoring to evaluate the primary outcome at one day, one week and two weeks.
Biomimetic Hydroxyapatite in Pediatric Patients With Asthma and/or Allergic Rhinitis
Dental CariesPeriodontal DiseasesThe aim of the study is to compare the incidence of dental caries and the level of demineralization in pediatric patients with asthma and/or allergic rhinitis. Patients will conduct professional oral hygiene at the baseline. The following clinical indexes will be assessed: BEWE Index, Plaque Index, Bleeding Score, Schiff Air Index. Then, patients will be randomly divided into two groups: Trial group: domiciliary use of Biorepair Total Protective + desensitizing enamel-repair shock treatment twice a day Control group: domiciliary use of Elmex Caries Protection twice a day The clinical indexes will be assessed again after 1 month (T1), after 3 (T2) and 6 months (T3).
