Validation and Reliability of Visual Assessment with a Shade Guide for Tooth-Color Classification
TL;DR: Despite its subjectivity, visual assessment of tooth color using the Vitapan Classical shade guide is a valid method, with good reliability for differentiating between dark and light colors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of immediate and delayed light activation on self-polymerization of dual-cured dental resin luting agents
Rafael R. Moraes,André Luis Faria-e-Silva,Fabrício Aulo Ogliari,Lourenço Correr-Sobrinho,Flávio Fernando Demarco,Evandro Piva +5 more
TL;DR: The extent of self-polymerization was influenced by the light dose reaching the material, which was dependent on high radiant exposure for optimal polymerization and the moment at which the light was applied; the short delay increased the DC for lower doses, while also generally decreasing the R(p) for all scenarios.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rudimar Antônio Baldissera,Marcos Britto Correa,Helena Silveira Schuch,Kauê Collares,Gustavo G. Nascimento,Patrícia dos Santos Jardim,Rafael R. Moraes,Niek J.M. Opdam,Flávio Fernando Demarco +8 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that in a patient group with low caries risk, anterior and posterior restorations placed with universal composites may have excellent long-term clinical performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effect of Fluoride Gel Use on Bleaching Sensitivity: A Double-Blind Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial
Ricardo V. Armênio,Francisco Fitarelli,Mersita F. Armênio,Flávio Fernando Demarco,Alessandra Reis,Alessandro Dourado Loguercio +5 more
TL;DR: The authors observed no difference between the groups receiving the placebo and the fluoride treatment in terms of tooth sensitivity experience, however, patients who received the placebo had a higher-intensity tooth sensitivity than that of patients who receiving the fluoride (P < .001).
Journal ArticleDOI
Is depression associated with oral health outcomes in adults and elders? A systematic review and meta-analysis
Mariana Gonzalez Cademartori,Márcia Torres Gastal,Gustavo Giacommelli Nascimento,Flávio Fernando Demarco,Marcos Britto Correa +4 more
TL;DR: A positive association between depression and oral diseases, specifically dental caries, tooth loss, and edentulism, in adults and elders is shown, highlighting the importance for both clinicians and policy makers of considering individual’s psychological status in management of oral health.
