Root canal content from primary endodontic infection and upregulation of gelatinases in fibroblast cells
ConclusionsRoot canal contents from primary endodontic infections had gelatinolytic activity for MMP?2. Moreover, CMP was effective in reducing endotoxin levels and their antigenicity against fibroblasts on gelatinolytic activity. (Source: International Endodontic Journal)

Influence of using different bonding systems and composites on the margin integrity and the mechanical properties of selectively excavated teeth in vitro
Conclusions Bonding systems which perform well in completely excavated teeth also yielded good results for selectively excavated teeth in vitro. Using fiber-enforced composites to restore selectively teeth increased fracture resistance. Clinical Significance: Bonding systems which perform well in completely excavated teeth are also suitable for restoring selectively excavated teeth. Using fiber-enforced composites seems suitable for increasing the fracture resistance of selectively teeth and their restorations. (Source: Journal of Dentistry)
