Failure analysis of adhesive restorations with SEM and OCT: from marginal gaps to restoration loss
Conclusions When marginal imperfections, or non-continuous margins, were detected by SEM, also imperfections beneath the surface could be observed at the tooth-restoration interface with OCT. Restoration loss occurred above the borderline of 50 % of marginal gaps on enamel and dentin. Clinical relevance Marginal discrepancies of adhesive restorations can propagate inside the cavity and lead to restoration loss. (Source: Clinical Oral Investigations)

The smear layer created by scaling and root planing is physiologically eliminated in a biphasic process
This study assessed the presence of the smear layer on root surfaces over a 28-day period after subgingival instrumentation with hand instruments. Fifty human teeth that were referred for extraction because of advanced periodontal disease were scaled and root planed (SRP) by a single experienced operator. Ten teeth were randomly assigned to be extracted 7, 14, 21, and 28 days after SRP. Another 10 teeth were extracted immediately after instrumentation (Day 0, control group). The subgingival area of the instrumented roots was evaluated with scanning electron microscopy. Representative photomicrographs were assessed by a blinded and calibrated examiner according to a scoring system. A rapid and significant (p < 0.05, Z test) initial reduction in the amount of smear layer was observed at 7…

Characterization of the Arginolytic Microflora Provides Insights into pH Homeostasis in Human Oral Biofilms
This study reveals that the basis for the wide spectrum of arginolytic expression observed among clinical strains is, at least in part, attributable to differences in the regulation of the ADS within and between species. The results provide insights into the microbiological basis for intersubject differences in ADS activity in oral biofilms and enhance our understanding of dental caries as an ecologically driven disease in which arginine metabolism moderates plaque pH and promotes dental health.Caries Res 2015;49:165-176 (Source: Caries Research)
