Trends in Sustainable Dentistry.

ABSTRACT: The advance of Dentistry must take into account national, European and global policies for sustainable development and green transition. This article illustrates possible scenarios in this context for the next decade.

Treatment of developmental defects of enamel.

Developmental defects of enamel are encountered daily in our dental practice. The management of enamel hypomineralized lesions may be challenging, especially as esthetic concern around the young population is increasing. Resin infiltration, a new technique firstly proposed to halt caries progression in the posterior segment, showed a strong positive esthetic effect in the treatment of developmental defects with different etiologies. Future in-vivo studies are needed to evaluate the longterm color stability, in order to provide a strong clinical recommendation.
