Effect of fluoride-releasing restorative materials on bacteria-induced pH fall at the bacteria-material interfa an in vitro model study
Conclusions The fluoride-releasing restorative materials inhibited pH fall at the bacteria-material interface. The degree of inhibition of pH fall seemed to correspond to the amount of fluoride detected, suggesting that the inhibition was due to the fluoride released from these materials. Clinical Significance A little amount of fluoride actually released from the fluoride-releasing materials may have caries preventive potential for oral bacteria (Source: Journal of Dentistry)

Human gingival fibroblasts function is stimulated on machined hydrided titanium zirconium dental implants
Conclusions Hydride implementation on TiZr machined surfaces may be used as new dental implant material for improved soft tissue integration. Clinical significan Enhancing dental implant surfaces’ bioactivity by hydride implementation may promote soft tissue attachment and sealing around the implant and reduce peri-implantitis related to ECM-destruction compared with conventional machined surfaces.

Effect of root morphology on biomechanical behaviour of premolars associated with abfraction lesions and different loading types
Summary The aim of this study was to investigate the biomechanical behaviour of maxillary premolar teeth regarding root morphology and abfraction depth, submitted to axial and oblique occlusal load. The investigation was conducted using 3D finite element analysis and strain gauge test. Sound maxillary premolar single and double root were selected for 3D model generation. The teeth were scanned for external morphology data acquisition. The 3D geometry was stored in *.STL and exported to Bio?CAD software (Rhinoceros?3D) to model generation. Mesh generation, mechanical properties and boundary conditions were performed in finite element software (Femap, Noran Engineering, USA). Twelve models were generated: sound tooth, 1·25 and 2·5 mm abfraction teeth. 100N compressive static load was …
