At present, researchers in the field of biomaterials are focusing on the oral hard and soft
tissue engineering with bioactive ingredients by activating body immune cells or different …

Objectives It has been reported that complete caries removal from cavities during restoration
of teeth is difficult. Furthermore with the tissue saving approach it is expected that more of …

Objectives This study systematically review the literature to assess the effectiveness of
antibacterial monomers incorporated into dental adhesive systems against major oral …

Objectives Glass ionomer cements (GIC) are widely recognized as important dental
restorative materials whilst they often suffer from restoration failures due to the poor …

Polymeric materials are the first choice for restoring tooth cavities, bonding tooth-colored
fillings, sealing root canal systems, and many other dental restorative applications. However …

Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) is a group of viridans mostly located in oral flora among
the wide and biodiverse biofilm. It plays a significant role not only in caries formation but also …

Objectives This study evaluated the dentine bond strength (BS) and the antibacterial activity
(AA) of six adhesives against strict anaerobic and facultative bacteria. Methods Three …

Aim: Antimicrobial and bioactive restorative materials are needed to develop a bacteria free
environment and tight bond with the surrounding tissue, preventing the spread of secondary …

Background Glass ionomer cement (GIC) is a commonly used restorative material in
dentistry, but GIC does not have significant antibiofilm effects and its mechanical strength is …
