Effect of Various Surface Treatments of Zirconia on its Adhesive Properties to Dentin: An < em > In Vitro < /em > Study
CONCLUSION: It can be inferred that 48% HF can etch zirconia and generate a porous structure that proves to be beneficial for bonding.CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The increasing demand for esthetics has led to the replacement of metal-ceramic materials with zirconia-based ceramics. However, the chemical inertness of zirconia to various conventional surface treating agents has continuously challenged researchers to discover a new surface treatment protocol that could enhance the bond strength of zirconia.

Color Stability of Bioactive Restorative Material vs Nanohybrid Resin Composite: An < em > In Vitro < /em > Study
CONCLUSION: The color of bioactive restorative material is less stable if compared with nanohybrid resin composite.CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: As tea and coffee are popular beverages, particularly in Middle Eastern nations, dentists must advise patients about the color change of resin restorations. Patients are advised to brush their teeth immediately after consuming these beverages. How to cite this article: Saber EH, Abielhassan MH, Abed YA, et al.

Salivary Proteinase 3 as a Biomarker for Caries Severity in Children: A Cross-sectional Study
CONCLUSION: The children with high caries severity showed lower concentration of PR3 in their saliva compared with those with lower caries severity which indicates that PR3 can be used as a biomarker for assessing caries severity and also paves way to use PR3 as a caries vaccine in future. Nowadays, interest toward noninvasive and personalized dentistry has been increased. Molecular assays using salivary biomarkers can be an effective tool in detecting the caries in earlier stages and assessing a patient's caries risk.CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Salivary PR3 can be used as prognostic biomarker for assessing caries severity and ...
