Evaluating Universal Adhesives in Cervical Lesions

The aim of this randomized controlled clinical trial is to evaluate the 12-month clinical performance of restorations placed in NCCLs using universal adhesives with different compositions according to FDI criteria.

Impact of Preoperative Dental Screening in Reducing Infective Endocarditis Risk in Surgical Valve Replacement Patients

In Odense University Hospital preoperative dental screening (PDS) protocol for patients treated with surgical valve replacement was changed from mandatory to targeted PDS to from march 2024. The investigators will therefore compare the risk of IE before vs after march 2024.

Financial Incentives to Encourage Uptake of Preventive Dental Care Services Among Adults

The study aims to assess if financial rebates affect the uptake of dental services among adults, determine the optimal level of financial rebates to encourage dental visits, and assess the factors associated with the uptake of dental services.

The Effect of Bulk Filling Flowable Composite on Caries Recurrence in Deep Marginal Elevation: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Deep marginal elevation usinge a bioactive dental material in deep subgingival Class II restorations, S-PRG filler-containing materials offer significant benefits due to their bioactive properties, Their ability to release fluoride, remineralization potential and acid neutralization, reducing the risk of recurrent caries, particularly at the gingival margin(Imazato et al. 2023). The antibacterial and antifungal effects help inhibit biofilm formation, enhancing the longevity of restorations. Additionally, these materials support better marginal adaptation by reducing microleakage and improving bond durability (Imazato et al. 2023) This type of composite may improve the outcomes of deep subgingival margin elevation, benefiting both restorative success and periodontal health(Imazato et al. 2023).

Clinical Performance of High Viscosity Bioactive Injectable Composite in Deep Marginal Elevation

Using a bioactive resin composite in subgingival Class II cavities can provide enhanced caries resistance by releasing multiple ions, including fluoride. This approach offers greater resistance to caries due to the incorporation of surface pre-reacted glass filler (S-PRG) technology (Imazato, Nakatsuka et al., 2023). This type of composite may improve the outcomes of deep subgingival margin elevation, benefiting both restorative success and periodontal health.
