Subjects and Methods: Charisma (Kulzer, Hanau, Germany), Essentia (GC, Tokyo, Japan), and CeramX (Dentsply Sirona, North Carolina, USA) resin composites were prepared within acrylic resin cylinders (n = 22). The surfaces of all samples were polished with OptiDisc (Kerr, California, USA), and G-Premio BOND (GC, Tokyo, Japan) was applied to the surfaces. The G-aenial (GC, Tokyo, Japan) resin composite was formed on the adhesive-applied surface aided by a Teflon mold with a diameter of 2.38 mm and height of 2 mm and then polymerized with a LED light source (VALO Cordless, Standard mode; Ultradent, Utah, USA) for 20 s. All samples were kept in water for 1 day. To determine the shear bond strength, a universal test device (Marestek, İstanbul, Turkey) with a knife-edged metal tip was used at a speed of 1 mm/min. For the experimental group, the composite surfaces of the same samples were sanded with 180-grit silicon carbide sandpaper and then polished with OptiDisc (Kerr, California, USA). Samples were then kept in water for 6 months. Adhesive repair resin composite and shear test applications were performed similarly to the control group. Paired sample t-test, one-way ANOVA, and post hoc Tukey's Honestly Significant Difference tests were performed for statistical analysis. For statistical significance, P < 0.05 was accepted. Results: We observed repair shear bond strength values of 7.88 ± 3.20 MPa for Charisma versus 5.64 ± 3.08 MPa aged Charisma, 7.65 ± 2.64 MPa for Essentia versus 5.67 ± 3.10 MPa for aged Essentia, and 7.07 ± 3.22 MPa for CeramX versus 4.80 ± 2.28 for MPa aged CeramX. There was no difference within control groups nor in aged groups (P > 0.05). However, bond strength was lower in aged composites (P < 0.05). Conclusions: The repair bond strength of current resin composites decreases after 6 months of water aging.","PeriodicalId":14017,"journal":{"name":"International journal of interdisciplinary dentistry","volume":"27 1","pages":"68 - 72"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83175891","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently, a growing interest in herbal-based products is found to be beneficial as the conventionally based formulated product. Aims: The aim of the study was to evaluate and compare the dentinal tubule occlusion ability of herbal desensitizing toothpaste and mouthwash on extracted teeth using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis. Settings and Design: This was a nonclinical, prospective study. Subjects and Methods: This study was done on 45 dentinal samples obtained from human-extracted teeth. Forty-five dentin samples were prepared, sectioned mesiodistally, etched with 6% citric acid for 2 min, washed with distilled water, and divided into: Group 1: specimens were placed in distilled water (control group) for 14 days, Group 2: specimens were brushed 2 min twice daily with HiOra-K™ toothpaste for 14 days, and Group 3: specimens were rinsed 2 min twice daily with HiOra-K™ mouthwash for 14 days. At the end of 3, 7, and 14 days, specimens were subjected to SEM analysis to detect tubular occlusion. Statistical Analysis Used: Chi-square analysis and analysis of variance were used for the significance study parameters on categorical scale and between groups (intergroup analysis) on metric parameters. Results: Toothpaste yielded better results of complete occlusion of dentinal tubules when compared with mouthwash at the end of 3, 7, and 14 days. Conclusions: Herbal desensitizing toothpaste and mouthwash occluded the dentinal tubules and are found to be effective in the management of dentinal hypersensitivity.","PeriodicalId":14017,"journal":{"name":"International journal of interdisciplinary dentistry","volume":"263 1","pages":"53 - 60"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75936640","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When present, it results in a diagnostic dilemma – it could be due to pyogenic granuloma, peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF), peripheral giant cell fibroma, or peripheral odontogenic fibroma. Proper history and clinical and histopathological examination aid in diagnosis and treatment. POF is a focal, slow-growing, reactive lesion that is often present as a painless mass in the gingiva. POF can be sessile or pedunculated and predominately seen in the second decade of life with a female predilection. This article presents the diagnosis and management of POF in the maxillary premolar region of a 28-year-old female patient.","PeriodicalId":14017,"journal":{"name":"International journal of interdisciplinary dentistry","volume":"98 1","pages":"104 - 108"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90263179","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
