Fluoride has been shown to be an effective agent in the prevention of caries during
orthodontic treatment. Resin‐modified glass‐ionomer cements possess therapeutic …

Background: Conventional composites are largely used in pediatric restorative dentistry and
demonstrate successful clinical outcomes. However, the need for simplification of operative …

Objectives The aim of this study is to evaluate the long-term clinical performance of a glass
ionomer (GI) restorative system in the restoration of posterior teeth compared with a micro …

The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of incorporation of Al2O3, ZrO2 and TiO2
nanoparticles into glass–ionomer cements (GICs). Two different GICs were used in the …

Background: Minimally invasive dentistry (MID) encompasses early caries diagnosis through
caries risk assessment (CRA), early detection of incipient carious lesion including primary …

Visual/tactile assessment instruments and electronically driven devices are available to
detect carious lesions and to assess caries risk and activity1. The development and …

Dental caries remains a challenge in the improvement of oral health. It is the most common
and widespread biofilm-dependent oral disease, resulting in the destruction of tooth …

The aim was to assess the effect of powder to liquid ratio (PLR) on setting time, fluoride
release, and compressive strength of conventional glass ionomer cements (GICs) containing …

Background: Minimally invasive dentistry (MID) includes caries detection using caries risk
assessment (CRA), early localization of nascent carious sores including necessary and …

The contemporary approach for operative caries management emphasizes personalized
interventions for each patient, dependent upon the individual's caries susceptibility/risk, the …
