Abstract:
The use of radiographic indices is noticeably diminished due to the lack of simplicity and standardisation among the existing ones. The aim of this study was to introduce a radiographic index to aid clinicians ...
Neuroprotective effects of Bhilawanol and Anacardic acid during glutamate-induced neurotoxicity
(2021)
Abstract:
Bhilawanol (Bh) and anacardic acid (AA) are two lipid-soluble compounds mostly found in the nut of Semecarpus anacardium (SA). This herb has many medicinal properties including enhancing learning and memory, yet ...
Characterisation of MicroparticleWaste from Dental Resin-Based Composites
(2021)
Abstract:
Clinical applications of resin-based composite (RBC) generate environmental pollution in the form of microparticulate waste. Methods: SEM, particle size and specific surface area analysis, FT-IR and potentiometric ...
Complete Obturation—Cold Lateral Condensation vs. Thermoplastic Techniques: A Systematic Review of Micro-CT Studies
(2021)
Abstract:
To prevent re-infection and provide a hermetic seal of the root canal system, an endodontist must aim to produce a void-free obturation. This review aimed to compare the completeness of root canal obturation ...
The Use of Stem Cell-Derived Organoids in Disease Modeling: An Update
(2021)
Abstract:
Organoids represent one of the most important advancements in the field of stem cells during the past decade. They are three-dimensional in vitro culturing models that originate from self-organizing stem cells ...
Substantial in-vitro and emerging clinical evidence supporting immediate dentin sealing
(2021)
Abstract:
The application of resin adhesive to freshly cut dentin after teeth preparation, the so-called immediate dentin sealing (IDS) has been suggested as an alternative to the delayed dentin sealing (DDS), a technique ...
The effect of layered double hydroxide on fluoride release and recharge from a commercial and an experimental resin varnish
(2021)
Objectives:
Layered Double Hydroxide (LDH) is capable of fluoride anion exchange and release. This study investigated the effects of incorporating ZnAl-LDH in commercial and experimental dental varnishes, on fluoride ...
Characterisation of S. aureus/ MRSA CC1153 and review of mobile genetic elements carrying the fusidic acid resistance gene fusC
(2021)
Abstract:
While many data on molecular epidemiology of MRSA are available for North America, Western Europe and Australia, much less is known on the distribution of MRSA clones elsewhere. Here, we describe a poorly known ...
