Clinical workflow of two different CAD/CAM systems for veneers manufacture
Carlos Alberto Jurado, Firas Mourad, David Felton, Jose Villalobos TinocoEuropean Journal of General Dentistry 2020 9(3):174-180 Digital technology is improving dentistry by manufacturing restorations faster and easier. Veneers can be handcrafted fabricated by the dental technician or designed by software and fabricated by a milling machine. Currently, there are many scanners available in the market that are clinically acceptable for the fabrication of restorations. However, there have been no clinical reports comparing the clinical protocols of the two most frequently used software programs in the market. The aim of this...

Evaluation of surface characteristics and weight variation of different composite resins after simulated toothbrushing
Conclusions: The abrasive process occasioned by toothbrushing leads to changes on the particles' disposition, which causes changes on the surface and increase on the Ra. On the other hand, there was not any difference regarding to weight variation. (Source: European Journal of General Dentistry)

Impact of irrigation solutions on the apical sealing potential of different endodontic sealers used with the continuous-wave obturation technique: An In vitro study
Conclusions: The type of irrigating solution could affect the apical sealing ability of experimental sealers used with the continuous-wave obturation technique. Root canal irrigation with 3% H2O2+17% EDTA increased the apical sealing ability of all root canal sealers. Root canal irrigation with 3% NaOCl or 2% CHX +17% EDTA decreased the apical sealing ability of all root canal sealers. (Source: European Journal of General Dentistry)

The association between hyperemesis gravidarum and periodontal disease in pregnancy
Conclusions: Gingival inflammation is more common in patients with HG, and it is possibly associated with insufficient tooth brushing because it may stimulate the gagging reflex and vomiting. Since there could be a vicious cycle between PD and HG, periodontal preventive programs are crucial for pregnant women with HG. (Source: European Journal of General Dentistry)

Melatonin as an index of periodontal disease
Rocco Franco, Patrizio BolleroEuropean Journal of General Dentistry 2020 9(3):103-107 Periodontal disease affects the supporting tissues of the tooth. The clinical manifestation varies from gingivitis to periodontitis. Periodontal disease is triggered by bacterial infection that releases toxins. The imbalance between oxidants and antioxidants determines the progression of periodontal disease. Melatonin (MEL) (N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine) is a hormone in the human body. Its production takes place in various organs including the retina, gastrointestinal tract, bone marrow, leukocytes, lymphocytes, skin, and principally pin...
