Journal ArticleDOI

Bovine tooth is a substitute for human tooth on bond strength studies: A systematic review and meta-analysis of in vitro studies.

TL;DR: Bovine teeth can be a reliable substitute for human ones on bond strength studies of adhesive systems to both enamel and dentin substrates, and low to moderate heterogeneity was found on the meta-analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vivo effectiveness of laser fluorescence compared to visual inspection and radiography for the detection of occlusal caries in primary teeth.

TL;DR: It is concluded that for the detection of occlusal caries in primary molars laser fluorescence presents a similar accuracy when compared to visual inspection and radiography, although visual inspection showed better values for sensitivities for both enamel and dentin lesions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Are topical fluorides effective for treating incipient carious lesions?: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

TL;DR: A systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the effectiveness of professional topical fluoride application (gels or varnishes) on the reversal treatment of incipient enamel carious lesions in primary or permanent dentition as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemical versus conventional caries removal techniques in primary teeth: a microhardness study.

TL;DR: It was concluded that the hardness of the remaining dentin after carious tissue removal was lower than that obtained on healthy dentin, without significance between the different means of carious tooth tissue removal.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comparative evaluation of endodontic treatments for immature necrotic permanent teeth based on clinical and radiographic outcomes: a systematic review and meta‐analysis

TL;DR: Although almost all of the identified studies presented moderate risk of bias, MTA apexification seems to produce overall better clinical and radiographic success rates among the endodontic treatment available in immature necrotic permanent teeth.
