RESUMEN
PURPOSE: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the depth distortion and angular deviation of fully-guided tooth-supported static surgical guides (FTSG) in partially edentulous arches compared to partially guided surgical guides or freehand. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and was registered in the Open Science Framework (OSF). The formulated population, intervention, comparison, and outcome (PICO) question was: "In partially edentulous arches, what are the depth distortion and angular deviation of FTSG compared to partially guided surgical guides or freehand?" The search strategy involved four main electronic databases, and an additional manual search was completed in November 2023 by following an established search strategy. Initial inclusion was based on titles and abstracts, followed by a detailed review of selected studies, and clinical studies that evaluated the angular deviations or depth distortion in FTSG in partial arches, compared to partially guided surgical guides or freehand, were included. In FTSG, two surgical approaches were compared: open flap and flapless techniques, and two digital methods were assessed for surgical guide design with fiducial markers or dental surfaces. A qualitative analysis for clinical studies was used to assess the risk of bias. The certainty of the evidence was assessed according to the grading of recommendations, assessment, development, and evaluations (GRADE) system. In addition, a single-arm meta-analysis of proportion was performed to evaluate the angular deviation of freehand and FTSG. RESULTS: Ten studies, published between 2018 and 2023, met the eligibility criteria. Among them, 10 studies reported angular deviations ranging from -0.32° to 4.96° for FTSG. Regarding FTSG surgical approaches, seven studies examined the open flap technique for FTSG, reporting mean angular deviations ranging from 2.03° to 4.23°, and four studies evaluated flapless FTSG, reporting angular deviations ranging from -0.32° to 3.38°. Six studies assessed the freehand surgical approach, reporting angular deviations ranging from 1.40° to 7.36°. The mean depth distortion ranged between 0.19 mm to 2.05 mm for open flap FTSG, and between 0.15 mm to 0.45 mm for flapless FTSG. For partially guided surgical guides, two studies reported angular deviations ranging from 0.59° to 3.44°. Seven studies were eligible for meta-analysis, focusing on the FTSG in open flap technique, with high heterogeneity (I2 (95%CI) = 92.3% (88.7%-96.4%)). In contrast, heterogeneity was low in studies comparing freehand versus FTSG in open flap techniques (I2 (95%CI) = 21.3% (0.0%-67.8%)), favoring the FTSG surgical approach. CONCLUSION: In partially edentulous arches, FTSG systems exhibited less angular deviation than freehand and partially guided surgical guides. Flapless surgical approaches were associated with reduced angular deviation and depth distortion, suggesting a potential preference for the FTSG method in these procedures.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of endodontic retreatment on the bond strength of different cementation techniques (self-adhesive and conventional resin cement) through the push-out mechanical testing and the penetrability of resin cements to root dentin. METHODS: 60 human teeth with single oval-shaped canals were used (n=15) : G1 - Endodontic treatment and cementation with RelyX ARC (ETA); G2 - Endodontic treatment and cementation with U200 (ETU); G3 - Endodontic retreatment and cementation with RelyX ARC (ERA); G4 - Endodontic retreatment and cementation with U200 (ERU). The groups with conventional endodontic treatment were filled with AH plus (ETA and ETU), while the groups that were submitted to endodontic retreatment were initially filled with Endofill and afterwards with AH Plus. Each radicular third (cervical, middle, and apical, of each tooth) was submitted to push-out bond strength testing, followed by evaluation with confocal laser microscopy to determine the penetration of the resin cements, and scanning electron microscopy was used to evaluate the failure mode. The parametric data were evaluated by two-way ANOVA and Tukey tests, and non-parametric data by Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn tests (α< 0.05). RESULTS: The ETA group had higher bond strength values to intra-radicular dentin than the other groups in all root thirds (P< 0.05). Endodontic retreatment had a negative impact on the penetration and push-out bond strength of RelyX ARC and U200 cement, regardless of the analyzed radicular third. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The bond strength between fiber post and root dentin can be affected by several factors, such as technical failure, cementation technique, pretreatment of the dentin, type of post and adaptation. The endodontic retreatment interferes negatively on the bond strength and penetrability of RelyX ARC and U200 cements to dentin, regardless of the analyzed radicular third. Therefore, the endodontic retreatment might have an adverse effect due to over preparation and aggression to the root canal.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Resin-coating agents can be used to fill microstructural defects within composite resin restorations, which might result in a smoother surface. Nevertheless, data about the color stability and surface roughness of coated restorations are lacking. PURPOSE: The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the surface roughness and color stability of restorations before and after application of different resin-coating agents. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Forty specimens of composite resin (Filtek Z250) (diameter×height, 6×2 mm) were divided into 5 groups according to the surface treatments (n=8 per group): control (CTR), Fortify (FT), Lasting touch (LT), BisCover (BIS), and Fill Glaze (FG). The specimens were evaluated for surface roughness by using a profilometer with 3 readings for each specimen (separated by 300 µm) before immersion in a staining solution (coffee) and after 5 days immersed in coffee and for color stability (âµE) by using a spectrophotometer before being immersed in coffee (initial reading) and after 6 hours, 12 hours, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 days. RESULTS: Two-way ANOVA with repeated measures and the Tukey test showed that the CTR group showed the highest roughness values, similar to those of the FT and LT groups. The BIS and FG groups showed lower roughness than the other groups but similar results when compared with each other. All groups, except LT, showed increased roughness values after immersion in coffee solution, and the BIS group showed the lowest variation over time. Color alterations were found for all groups, with the CTR group showing the lowest âµE values when compared with the other groups except for the BIS group. No correlation was found between surface roughness and degree of color change (P=.401). CONCLUSIONS: The BisCover surface sealant showed the lowest surface roughness and the best color stability. Surface sealants can be used to fill microcracks and microgaps but should not be used as a substitute for polishing.

The present study describes the antimicrobial activity of five pimarane-type diterpenes obtained by fungal biotransformation against several nosocomial multidrug-resistant bacteria. Among the investigated metabolites, ent-8(14),15-pimaradien-3ß-ol was the most active compound, with very promising minimal inhibitory concentration values (between 8.0 and 25.0 µg mL(-1)). Time-kill assays using this metabolite against Staphylococcus aureus (HCRP180) revealed that this compound exerted its bactericidal effect within 24 h at all the evaluated concentrations (8.0, 16.0, and 24.0 µg mL(-1)). When this metabolite was associated with vancomycin at their minimal bactericidal concentration values, the resulting combination was able to drastically reduce the number of viable strains of S. aureus within the first 6 h, compared with these chemicals alone. The checkerboard assays conducted against this microorganism did not evidence any synergistic effects when this same combination was employed. In conclusion, our results point out that ent-8(14),15-pimaradien-3ß-ol is an important metabolite in the search for new effective antimicrobial agents.

OBJECTIVES: Answer the PICO question: Do class I and II posterior restorations in permanent teeth placed with high-viscosity glass-ionomer cement (HV-GIC) fail more than composite resin (CR) restorations? DATA: The study was registered in the PROSPERO database (CRD42020138290). Randomized and controlled clinical trials, comparing the performance of HV-GIC and CR in load bearing cavities of posterior permanent teeth were included. Cochrane risk of bias tool and GRADE were used to assess the quality and certainty of the evidence. Meta-analyses were performed for clinical outcomes on USPHS and FDI criteria for 12-, 24- and 36-months follow-ups. SOURCES: PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science were last searched on April 2, 2022, without language or date restrictions. Reference lists of primary studies and their related article link in PubMed were manually searched. STUDY SELECTION: Ten studies were included, while data from 8 were used for the meta-analyses. A total of 849 HV-GIC and 800 CR restorations were followed. The primary outcome was the fracture/retention of the restoration, with a comparable performance for both materials on all follow-ups. The 36 months follow-up for class I restorations (longest) showed risk difference of -0,00 (95%CI -0,03 to 0,03; p = 0,98) and no heterogeneity (p = 0,98, I2=0%). The certainty of the evidence is moderate, as all included studies were at an uncertain risk of bias. CONCLUSIONS: HV-GIC and CR presented comparable clinical performance in posterior permanent teeth up to 36 months. HV-GIV wear in class I restorations followed by 24 months was the only poorer result compared to CR. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Conservative load bearing cavities in permanent posterior teeth can be restored with HV-GIC with comparable clinical performance to CR expected at least up to 3 years. HV-GIC is a valuable direct restorative option for posterior teeth in high caries risk patients, in which CR is frequently associated with failure.

The schistosomicidal effects of pimaradienoic acid (PA) and two derivatives, obtained by fungal transformation in the presence of Aspergillus ochraceus, were investigated. PA was the only compound with antischistosomal activity among the three diterpenes studied, with the ability to significantly reduce the viability of the parasites at concentrations ranging from 25 to 100 µM. PA also promoted morphological alterations of the tegument of Schistosoma mansoni, separated all the worm couples, and affected the production and development of eggs. Moreover, this compound was devoid of toxicity toward human fibroblasts. In a preliminary in vivo experiment, PA at a dose of 100 mg/kg significantly diminished the number of parasites in infected Balb/c mice. Taken together, these results show that PA may be potentially employed in the discovery of novel schistosomicidal agents, and that diterpenes are an important class of natural compounds for the investigation of agents capable of fighting the parasite responsible for human schistosomiasis.

In the present work, the anticariogenic activities of three pimarane-type diterpenes obtained by fungal biotransformation were investigated. Among these metabolites, ent-8(14),15-pimaradien-19-ol was the most active compound, displaying very promising MIC values (ranging from 1.5 to 4.0 µg mL(-1)) against the main microorganisms responsible for dental caries: Streptococcus salivarius, S. sobrinus, S. mutans, S. mitis, S. sanguinis, and Lactobacillus casei. Time kill assays performed with ent-8(14),15-pimaradien-19-ol against the primary causative agent S. mutans revealed that this compound only avoids growth of the inoculum in the first 12 h (bacteriostatic effect). However, its bactericidal effect is clearly noted thereafter (between 12 and 24 h). The curve profile obtained by combining ent-8(14),15-pimaradien-19-ol and chlorhexidine revealed a significant reduction in the time necessary for killing S. mutans compared with each of these two chemicals alone. However, no synergistic effect was observed using the same combination in the checkerboard assays against this microorganism. In conclusion, our results point out that ent-8(14),15-pimaradien-19-ol is an important metabolite in the search for new effective anticariogenic agents.

Seven pimarane type-diterpenes re-isolated from Viguiera arenaria Baker and two semi-synthetic pimarane derivatives were evaluated in vitro against the following main microorganisms responsible for dental caries: Streptococcus salivarius, S. sobrinus, S. mutans, S. mitis, S. sanguinis and Lactobacillus casei. The compounds ent-pimara-8(14),15-dien-19-oic acid (PA); ent-8(14),15-pimaradien-3beta-ol; ent-15-pimarene-8beta,19-diol; ent-8(14),15-pimaradien-3beta-acetoxy and the sodium salt derivative of PA were the most active compounds, displaying MIC values ranging from 2 to 8 microg mL(-1). Thus, this class of compounds seems promising as a class of new effective anticariogenic agents. Furthermore, our results also allow us to conclude that minor structural differences among these diterpenes significantly influence their antimicrobial activity, bringing new perspectives to the discovery of new natural compounds that could be employed in the development of oral care products.

Two kaurane diterpenes, ent-kaur-16(17)-en-19-oic acid (KA) and 15-beta-isovaleryloxy-ent-kaur-16(17)-en-19-oic acid (KA-Ival), isolated from Aspilia foliacea, and the methyl ester derivative of KA (KA-Me) were evaluated against oral pathogens. KA was the most active compound, with MIC values of 10 microg mL(-1) against the following microorganisms: Streptococcus sobrinus, Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus mitis, Streptococcus sanguinis, and Lactobacillus casei. However, KA did not show significant activity against Streptococcus salivarius and Enterococcus faecalis, with MIC values equal to 100 and 200 microg mL(-1), respectively. Our results show that KA has potential to be used as a prototype for the discovery of new effective anti-infection agents against microorganisms responsible for caries and periodontal diseases. Moreover, these results allow to conclude that minor structural differences among these diterpenes significantly influence their antimicrobial activity, bringing new perspectives to studies on the structure-activity relationship of this type of metabolites with respect to caries and periodontal diseases.
