Effect of Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) Solution on the Stem Cells from Human Exfoliated Deciduous Teeth (SHEDs)
(2022)Background: SDF is a solution containing silver, fluoride, and ammonia. Clinically, it is used to arrest the progression of carious lesions in primary teeth. Recent studies have shown that SDF has indirect effect on pulp ... -
Effect of supine and upright positions on airway dimensions in patients with obstructive sleep apnea
(2021)Aim: The aim of the study was to assess the effect of supine vs upright imaging positions on airway dimensions in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Materials and methods: This retrospective study included ... -
Effect of usage and autoclaving on the cyclic fatigue resistance of heat-treated nickel-titanium instrument
(2021)Background: Nickel-titanium (NiTi) instruments are often reused in endodontic treatment for economic reasons. Thus, cleaning, disinfection, and sterilization of these endodontic instruments are essential. Several studies ... -
The effect of varying concentrations of hydrogen peroxide on bovine enamel and dentine
(2021)Background: Bleaching has become a popular treatment option for aesthetic management of discolored teeth. Bleaching is a conservative approach in aesthetic dentistry compared to other invasive restorative treatment ... -
Effect of Voxel Size on the Accuracy of Airway Volumetric Measurements Using Cone Beam Computed Tomography
(2021)Aim: The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the accuracy and reliability of the airway volume, dental, and skeletal parameters measured digitally on cone beam computed tomography scans (CBCTs) using ... -
Effectiveness of extraction of the primary canines for the interceptive management of palatally displaced permanent canines - a meta-analysis
(2017-01)AIM: Although extraction of primary canines in the mixed dentition has been suggested as a measure to prevent impaction of palatally displaced permanent canines (PDC), the relevant evidence has been inconclusive. The aim ... -
Effectiveness of Orthodontic Procedures, Alternative or Adjunctive To Extraction of the Primary Canines, For Interceptive Management of Palatally Displaced Permanent Canines: A Systematic Review
(2018)Aim: Although Rapid Maxillary Expansion (RME), Trans-Palatal Arch (TPA) and Cervical-pull Headgear (HG) have been suggested as interventions in the mixed dentition to increase the rate of normal eruption of the palatally ... -
Effectiveness of Spray Disinfectants on Three dental Impression Materials
(2019-08)Background: The disinfection of dental impressions is fundamental to prevent cross-infection from the dental surgery to the laboratory. Spray rather than immersion disinfectants have recently been introduced to dental ... -
