RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: Secondary caries lesions adjacent to restorations, a leading cause of restoration failure, require accurate diagnostic methods to ensure an optimal treatment outcome. Traditional diagnostic strategies rely on visual inspection complemented by radiographs. Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), particularly deep learning, provide potential improvements in caries detection. This study aimed to develop a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based algorithm for detecting primary caries and secondary caries around restorations using bitewings. METHODS: Clinical data from 7 general dental practices in the Netherlands, comprising 425 bitewings of 383 patients, were utilized. The study used the Mask-RCNN architecture, for instance, segmentation, supported by the Swin Transformer backbone. After data augmentation, model training was performed through a ten-fold cross-validation. The diagnostic accuracy of the algorithm was evaluated by calculating the area under the Free-Response Receiver Operating Characteristics curve, sensitivity, precision, and F1 scores. RESULTS: The model achieved areas under FROC curves of 0.806 and 0.804, and F1-scores of 0.689 and 0.719 for primary and secondary caries detection, respectively. CONCLUSION: An accurate CNN-based automated system was developed to detect primary and secondary caries lesions on bitewings, highlighting a significant advancement in automated caries diagnostics. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: An accurate algorithm that integrates the detection of both primary and secondary caries will permit the development of automated systems to aid clinicians in their daily clinical practice.

This study aimed to report a treatment of multiple gingival recession in a 43-year-old female patient. After clinical and tomographic evaluation, Miller's class I and II (or Cairo RT1) gingival recessions were observed in several teeth of maxilla and mandible. Non-carious cervical lesions, poorly adapted crowns and unbalanced occlusion were also diagnosed, with the absence of canine guides. A thin gingival phenotype was also found. Orthodontic treatment was not performed, as a thin vestibular bone wall in the mandible was detected. Therefore, correction of the occlusion was performed by means of selective wear on cusps of the posterior teeth to relieve premature contacts. For root coverage, tunneling technique was used in the first, second and fourth sextants. In the fifth sextant, full covering occurred only after a second surgery. A third surgery was performed in the fourth quadrant, and the modified Bruno technique was chosen. The donor region was the palate in all the procedures. The two techniques employed reached up to 100% root coverage in all areas that received the surgery. The patient was satisfied with the final result. It was concluded that complete root coverage is possible when using tunneling technique in patients without interproximal bone loss. (AU)
Esse estudo objetivou reportar um tratamento de recessões gengivais múltiplas em uma paciente do sexo feminino de 43 anos. Após avaliação clínica e tomográfica, recessões gengivais classe I e II de Miller (ou RT1 de Cairo) foram observadas em diversos dentes da maxila e mandíbula. Lesões cervicais não cariosas, coroas mal adaptadas e oclusão desbalanceada também foram diagnosticadas, com ausência de guias caninas. Um fenótipo gengival fino foi observado. Tratamento ortodôntico não foi realizado, pois uma parede óssea vestibular fina na mandíbula foi detectada. Portanto, correção da oclusão foi realizada com desgastes seletivos de cúspides dos dentes posteriores para avaliar os contatos prematuros. Para o recobrimento radicular, técnica de tunelização foi utilizada no primeiro, secundo e quarto sextantes. No sexto sextante, recobrimento completo foi conseguido apenas após a segunda cirurgia. Uma terceira cirurgia foi realizada no quarto quadrante, e a técnica modificada de Bruno foi escolhida. O palato foi a região doara em todos os procedimentos. As duas técnicas cirúrgicas empregadas chegaram até a 100% de recobrimento radicular em todas as áreas que receberam a cirurgia. A paciente ficou satisfeita com o resultado final. Foi concluído que o recobrimento radicular complete é possível quando se utiliza a técnica da tunelização em pacientes sem perda óssea interproximal. (AU)
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the incorporation of repairing capsules containing different monomers and polymerization modulators on the self-healing efficiency of an experimental photopolymerizable resin-based composite. METHODS: Self-healing capsules containing different monomers and polymerization modulators were prepared by emulsion polymerization: TCDHEPT (TEGDMA and DHEPT), BTCDHEPT (Bis-GMA, TEGDMA, and DHEPT), and BTCBPO (Bis-GMA, TEGDMA, and BPO). The capsules were analyzed through Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The capsules were added into experimental photopolymerizable resin composites establishing the following groups: ER (Control without capsules), ER+BPO, ER+BPO+TCDHEPT, and ER+BTCBPO+BTCDHEPT. Filtek Z350 resin composite (3 M ESPE) was used as a commercial reference. The materials were tested for degree of conversion (DC), flexural strength (σf), elastic modulus (Ef), fracture toughness (virgin KIC), self-healing efficiency (healed KIC), and roughness. For statistical analysis, the significance value was established at an a = 0.05 level. RESULTS: When compared to the control material, the incorporation of repairing capsules did not affect DC, σf, and Ef. Fracture toughness was statistically similar between the experimental groups (p ≤ 0.05). Healed KIC was statistically different between the groups ER+TCDHEP and ER+BTCBPO+BTCDHEPT; the self-healing efficiency was higher for ER+TCDHEPT. Surface roughness was statistically similar among all groups. CONCLUSIONS: The use of self-healing capsules promoted repair of the material. Studies with material aging after the self-healing process are necessary to better demonstrate the effectiveness of this system. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The self-healing system seemed to be a promising technology to be used in self-repaired restorative materials, which may prevent restoration fractures.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the effects of pretreatment with different crosslinking agents on glass-fiber-post adhesive luting. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Single-rooted human teeth (n = 20) were randomly assigned to four groups: proanthocyanidins (PA) from grape-seed extract, cardol and cardanol (separated from cashew nut-shell liquid) and negative control (hydroethanolic solution). The solutions were applied on 37% phosphoric acid-etched dentin for 60 s. Glass-fiber posts were cemented using a three-step etch-and-rinse adhesive (Scotchbond Multi-Purpose, 3M Oral Care) and composite cement (RelyX ARC, 3M Oral Care). Slices for the push-out bond strength test were cut and tested after 24-h or 6-month storage in distilled water. The dentin underlying the adhesive layer was analyzed by micro-Raman spectroscopy to evaluate vibrational formation of collagen crosslinks. Three additional slices per group were also made and the adhesive in-situ degree of conversion (DC) was analyzed by micro-Raman spectroscopy. The results were analyzed using two-way ANOVA and Tukey's test (p < 0.05). RESULTS: No statistically significant changes in bond strength were found over time for any of the groups, except with cardol, which increased bond strength (8.4 ± 3.9 MPa at 24 h to 15.0 ± 2.9 MPa after 6 months, p < 0.001) after aging. The formation of peaks at 1117 cm-1 and 1235 cm-1 showed the presence of collagen crosslinks for all three biomodification agents. The DC outcomes showed no statistically significant differences between groups (p = 0.514). CONCLUSION: Biomodification agents did not impair adhesive polymerization. Cardol demonstrated a positive influence on intraradicular dentin bonding for glass-fiber post luting.

Objective: The objective of this study was to characterize and correlate the absorption spectra of three photoinitiators [camphorquinone (CQ), diphenyl(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl) phosphine oxide (TPO) and phenylbis (2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)-phosphine oxide (BAPO)], using second or third-generation light curing units (LCU), and to evaluate the degree of conversion and the physical properties of an experimental resin adhesive. Material and methods: Second-generation (Radii-cal® and Emitter D®) and third-generation (Valo® Cordless and Bluephase N®) LCU were assessed regarding spectrum and irradiance rate of emitted light. Also, the photoinitiators (CQ, TPO and BAPO) were characterized by a light absorption spectrum assessed by UV-Vis spectroscopy, degree of conversion and yellowing effect. Statistical analyzes considered two-way ANOVA and post-hoc Tukey test. Results: BAPO presented higher reactivity compared to TPO. Regarding degree of conversion of the photoinitiators activated by different light-curing units, the Emitter D® device promoted a high degree of conversion. BAPO presented the highest yellowing effect values. Conclusions: The emission and absorption characteristics of the photoinitiators were different. The polymerization reaction activated by the second-generation light-curing unit was reduced when using an experimental resin with photoinitiator TPO, and the third-generation light-curing unit showed a higher polymerization potential regardless of the photoinitiator.

Objetivo: Caracterizar e correlacionar os espectros de absorção de três fotoiniciadores [canforoquinona (CQ), difenil 2,4,6-trimetilbenzil óxido de fosfina (TPO) e óxido de di (2,4,6-trimetilbenzil) difenil fosfina (BAPO)], com unidades de fotoativação (LCU) de segunda ou terceira geração, e avaliar o grau de conversão e as propriedades físicas de um adesivo experimental. Material e métodos: LCU de segunda geração (Radii-cal® e Emitter D®) e terceira geração (Valo® Cordless e Bluephase N®) foram avaliadas quanto ao espectro e taxa de irradiância da luz emitida. Além disso, os fotoiniciadores (CQ, TPO e BAPO) foram caracterizados por um espectro de absorção de luz avaliado por espectroscopia UV-Vis, avaliado o grau de conversão dos adesivos e efeito de amarelamento. A análise estatística empregada foi ANOVA duas vias e teste post-hoc de Tukey. Resultados: BAPO apresentou maior reatividade comparado ao TPO. Em relação ao grau de conversão dos fotoiniciadores ativados por diferentes aparelhos fotopolimerizadores, o dispositivo Emitter D® promoveu um alto grau de conversão. BAPO apresentou os maiores valores de efeito de amarelamento. Conclusões: As características de emissão e absorção dos fotoiniciadores foram diferentes. A reação de polimerização ativada pelas unidades de fotopolimerização de segunda geração foi reduzida com o uso de uma resina experimental com fotoiniciador TPO. As unidades de fotopolimerização de terceira geração apresentaram maior potencial de polimerização independentemente do fotoiniciador. (AU)

A estabilidade de cor e translucidez foram avaliadas com um espectrofotômetro. Os dados foram submetidos ao teste t (α=0,05). Resultados: ES apresentou resultados de GC maiores (62,5% ± 3,7) que Z350XT (48,7% ± 6,9) (p=0,004). Ambas resinas apresentaram resultados de SO e SL similares. A MV final da ES diminuiu 13% com relação a inicial (p=0,115). Z350XT apresentou diminuição de 17% (p=0,004). ES apresentou aumento de 115% na rugosidade superficial após a termociclagem (p=0,001), enquanto a Z350XT apresentou diminuição de 35% (p=0,299). ES apresentou menor alteração de cor (0,280 ± 0,093), quando comparada a Z350XT (0,549 ± 0,183). A translucidez foi similar para ambos materiais (ES=30,80; Z350XT=30,35). Conclusão: A termociclagem influenciou na alteração de cor e rugosidade superficial das resinas compostas, demonstrando que podem ser alteradas pela degradação na matriz polimérica.
Objective: To evaluate the thermocycling effect on color stability and surface roughness of two resin composites and also evaluate the degree of conversion (GC), sorption (SO), solubility (SL) and microhardness. Material and method: 10 specimens (6 mm x 1 mm) were made for each resin: Filtek Z350 XT (Z350XT) and Estelite Sigma Quick (ES). The following were evaluated: GC, using an infrared spectroscopy, SO and SL. Vickers microhardness (MV) and cross-link density evaluation was performed before and after immersion in ethanol for 24 hours. Surface roughness and color stability (CIEDE2000) were evaluated before and after thermal aging for 2000 cycles, alternating between 30 s at 5°, 37° and 55° C. Color stability and translucency were assessed with a spectrophotometer. Data were submitted to t test (α= 0.05). Results: ES presented higher GC results (62.5% ± 3.7) than Z350XT (48.7% ± 6.9) (p= 0.004). Both resins showed similar SO and SL results. The final MV of ES decreased 13% in relation to the initial (p= 0.115). Z350XT decreased by 17% (p= 0.004). ES showed a 115% increase in surface roughness after thermocycling (p= 0.001), while the Z350XT showed a 35% decrease (p= 0.299). ES showed less color change (0.280 ± 0.093) when compared to Z350XT (0.549 ± 0.183). The translucency was similar for both materials (ES= 30.80; Z350XT= 30.35). Conclusion: Thermocycling influenced the change in color stability and surface roughness of composite resins, demonstrating that they may be altered by degradation in the polymer matrix.

The objective in this case report is to present a correction of excessive gingival exposure performed through periodontal esthetic surgery, using clinical crown lengthening and lip repositioning. The patient reported discomfort when smiling due to excessive gingival exposure, and clinical and photographic examinations of the patient showed vertical maxillary growth as the main diagnosis. In the digital smile design, the possibility of crown lengthening observed for teeth - upper left and right central incisors and upper left lateral incisor. A lip-repositioning procedure was also planned. An incision was performed at the mucogingival junction, and a parallel incision was realized at the top of the alveolar mucosa. Afterward, the incised gingival band was removed through vertical incisions in the planned border area. The muscular area was preserved. A simple suture was made, with the approach of the gingival margins around the surgical area. The crown-lengthening procedure was performed with the flapless technique. After 2-year follow-up, the periodontal esthetic surgery, comprising crown lengthening and lip repositioning, was noninvasive and can thus serve as an interesting alternative treatment for excessive exposure of the gingival smile, as it results in a harmonious and natural smile.

This study evaluated the three-year lifespan of the bond to dentin of experimental self-etch adhesives containing benzodioxole derivatives - 1,3-benzodioxole (BDO) and piperonyl alcohol (PA) - as co-initiator alternative to amines. Adhesive resins were formulated using Bis-GMA, TEGDMA, HEMA, camphorquinone and different co-initiators: BDO, PA or ethyl 4-dimethylamino benzoate (EDAB - amine). An experimental self-etch primer was used to complete the two-step, self-etch adhesive system. Clearfil SE Bond (CSE) was used as commercial reference. Bond strength to human dentin was assessed by microtensile bond strength (µTBS) test, and failure mode was classified. Morphology of the dentin bonding interface was assessed via scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Irrespective of the dental adhesives evaluated, µTBS was higher after 24 hours compared with that after 1.5 and 3 years (p ≤ 0.001). However, adhesives with BDO and PA as co-initiators showed significantly higher bond strength than the bonding resin with EDAB (p ≤ 0.002), independent of the time evaluated. The commercial adhesive CSE showed similar bond strength compared with the other groups (p ≥ 0.05). Mixed failures were mainly observed after 24 hours, while adhesive failures were more frequently observed after 1.5 and 3 years. No notable differences in homogeneity and continuity along the bonded interfaces were detected among the materials in the SEM analysis. In conclusion, benzodioxole derivatives are feasible alternative co-initiators to tertiary amine in camphorquinone-based self-etching dental adhesive formulations.

OBJECTIVES: This study describes the synthesis of piperonyl methacrylate (PipM) and evaluates its effect when used as coinitiator in the photoinitiated radical polymerization of experimental adhesive resins. METHODS: PipM was synthetized through an esterification reaction and characterized by FTIR and 1H NMR spectroscopy. Adhesive resins containing camphorquinone as photoinitiator and PipM or ethyl-4-dimethyl amine benzoate (EDAB) as coinitiators were formulated. Scotchbond Multipurpose (SBMP) adhesive was used as commercial reference. All materials were analyzed for polymerization kinetics, flexural strength, elastic modulus, water sorption/solubility, shear bond strength to bovine enamel and dentin, characterization of hybrid layer by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), microbiological direct contact test, and cytotoxicity. RESULTS: The adhesive with PipM presented higher degree of conversion and lower sorption/solubility when compared with other groups. Shear bond strength to enamel and dentin were similar for PipM and EDAB materials. The percentage of cellular viability was close to 100% and similar in the experimental groups and the commercial reference. CONCLUSIONS: PipM presented similar or superior performance to the tertiary amine used as control, representing a potential alternative coinitiator for photopolymerizable dental materials. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: PipM could be potentially useful in the formulations of adhesive systems with enhanced chemical properties, which could mean improvement in the longevity of composite resin restorations.

OBJECTIVE: This study evaluated the effects of adhesive type used as modeling liquid on the stability of the color and opacity of composites submitted to thermal cycling in staining solutions followed by a bleaching procedure. METHODS: Thirty cylinder-shaped composite specimens (10 mm diameter × 1.5 mm thickness) were built using or not using (control) an adhesive (Adper Universal or Scotchbond Multipurpose) as the modeling liquid. After polishing procedures, the color and opacity were measured, and the specimens were submitted to 200 thermal cycles with 10 s of dwell time in baths of grape juice at 5°C, water at 37°C, and coffee at 55°C. Changes in opacity and color caused by the staining solutions were measured. Then, the specimens were bleached with 35% hydrogen peroxide for 45 minutes followed by color/opacity measurements. Data were analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey's test (α = 0.05). RESULTS: The use of modeling liquids did not affect the initial color and opacity of composite. Reduced changes to color (E00 = 3.44) and opacity (+2.67%) were observed for specimens modeled using Adper Universal. Bleaching procedures reduced the color (E00 = 1.9-3.8) and opacity (-2.3 to 3.1%) alterations caused by staining solutions but were unable to restore the values observed at baseline. CONCLUSION: The use of universal adhesive as modeling liquid significantly reduced the color and opacity changes caused by staining solutions, and the bleaching procedure partially re-established the opacity and color of the composites. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: This study evaluates whether using adhesive systems for modeling a composite affects the color and opacity changes caused by staining solutions followed by a bleaching procedure. The findings suggest that the use of a universal adhesive as modeling liquid can reduce the alterations in optical properties caused by staining solutions, and the application of high-concentrated hydrogen peroxide over the composite reduce the color changes without fully recover the initial color.

OBJECTIVE: A systematic review was conducted to analyze Brazilian scientific and technological production related to the dental materials field over the past 50 years. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (Prisma) statement. Searches were performed until December 2014 in six databases: MedLine (PubMed), Scopus, LILACS, IBECS, BBO, and the Cochrane Library. Additionally, the Brazilian patent database (INPI - Instituto Nacional de Propriedade Industrial) was screened in order to get an overview of Brazilian technological development in the dental materials field. Two reviewers independently analyzed the documents. Only studies and patents related to dental materials were included in this review. Data regarding the material category, dental specialty, number of documents and patents, filiation countries, and the number of citations were tabulated and analyzed in Microsoft Office Excel (Microsoft Corporation, Redmond, Washington, United States). RESULTS: A total of 115,806 studies and 53 patents were related to dental materials and were included in this review. Brazil had 8% affiliation in studies related to dental materials, and the majority of the papers published were related to dental implants (1,137 papers), synthetic resins (681 papers), dental cements (440 papers), dental alloys (392 papers) and dental adhesives (361 papers). The Brazilian technological development with patented dental materials was smaller than the scientific production. The most patented type of material was dental alloys (11 patents), followed by dental implants (8 patents) and composite resins (7 patents). CONCLUSIONS: Dental materials science has had a substantial number of records, demonstrating an important presence in scientific and technological development of dentistry. In addition, it is important to approximate the relationship between academia and industry to expand the technological development in countries such as Brazil.

Brazil had 8% affiliation in studies related to dental materials, and the majority of the papers published were related to dental implants (1,137 papers), synthetic resins (681 papers), dental cements (440 papers), dental alloys (392 papers) and dental adhesives (361 papers). The Brazilian technological development with patented dental materials was smaller than the scientific production. The most patented type of material was dental alloys (11 patents), followed by dental implants (8 patents) and composite resins (7 patents). Conclusions Dental materials science has had a substantial number of records, demonstrating an important presence in scientific and technological development of dentistry. In addition, it is important to approximate the relationship between academia and industry to expand the technological development in countries such as Brazil.

OBJECTIVE: Actinic cheilitis (AC) is a precancerous lesion of the lip vermillion caused by prolonged exposure to ultraviolet light. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of 3% diclofenac in 2.5% hyaluronic acid gel in the treatment of AC. METHODS: Thirty-four patients with chronic AC were treated twice a day with topical diclofenac during a period of 30 to 180 days. The individuals were followed up every 15 days by means of clinical examination and digital photographic documentation. RESULTS: Of the 27 patients that completed the study, 12 (44%) showed complete remission of the whitish plaques and exfoliative areas, and 15 (56%) had partial remission of the clinical picture of cheilitis. The latter group was submitted to excision of the leukoplakic areas which diagnosis varied from mild to moderate epithelial dysplasia. CONCLUSIONS: The results suggest a promising role for diclofenac in hyaluronic acid gel in the treatment of AC. This treatment has the advantages of not being invasive and showing few side effects.

Despite the large number of published cases about oral and maxillofacial pediatric lesions, the literature is scarce on epidemiological studies regarding the prevalence of these entities. This study retrieved oral and maxillofacial pediatric lesions from the Center of Diagnosis of Oral Diseases (CDDB) at the Dental School of the Federal University of Pelotas (UFPEL), comprising a 20-year period (1983-2002). From the total of 9,465 biopsies received in this period, 625 (6.6%) were from children aged 0 to 14 years. Regardless of the histopathological diagnosis, patient data referring to lesion location, sex and age were collected. Diagnoses were grouped in 13 categories. As much as 89% of the cases occurred in patients aged 7 to 14 years (53% in females and 47% in males). Mucocele (17.2%) was the most common type of lesion, followed by dentigerous cyst (8.6%). In the category of odontogenic tumors, odontoma was the most frequent lesion (64.2%). Malignant lesions were observed in a small section of the sample (1.2%). Generally, the results of the present study are in line with those reported in the literature concerning the most prevalent lesions in the pediatric population. Most lesions were benign, and malignant lesions were diagnosed in a very small part of the sample.

PURPOSE: To investigate the influence of different water concentrations in the solvents of self-etching primers on microtensile bond strength (LTBS) of an experimental adhesive system. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Five experimental self-etching primers with 0, 5, 10, 20 and 40 (wt%) water as solvent were formulated. An experimental adhesive resin (AD-50) was also synthesized to create one experimental self-etching adhesive system. Clearfil SE Bond (CSEB) was used as the commercial reference. Sixty bovine incisors were randomly separated into 6 groups. Buccal enamel was removed to expose the superficial coronal dentin; this surface was polished wet to create a standardized smear layer. After rinsing, water was removed, leaving the surface visibly dried. The dentin surfaces were etched with primer and air dried, adhesive resin was applied and photoactivated, then the composite resin restoration was placed. After storage for 24 h, the specimens were sectioned with a cooled diamond saw at low speed. Microtensile bond strength was measured and data were analyzed with one-way ANOVA/Tukey's test (alpha = 0.05). RESULTS: ANOVA showed that primer composition was a significant factor for bond strength. There was no significant difference in bond strengths between the primers with a water concentration of 40% (53.9 +/- 12.7 MPa), 20% (51.1 +/- 11.5 MPa, and 10% (47.5 +/- 11.4 MPa), and CSEB (50.7 +/- 9.8 MPa). The groups with 5% (38.6 +/- 12.9 MPa) and 0% (31.5 +/- 7.5 MPa) water presented similar bond strengths amongst themselves but were statistically significantly lower than that of the other groups. CONCLUSION: The water concentration in the primer solvent exercises a significant influence on the bond strength of this experimental self-etching adhesive system.
