the aim of this study was to compare the level of agreement between four operators with different levels of experience for two methods of detecting secondary enamel and dentin carious lesions in composite restored teeth.sixty teeth of 40 patients with with secondary carious lesions in the composite resin were selected. the teeth were examined by two methods; visual inspection and a laser fluore...

Background and Aim: Considering the importance of detection of secondary caries, the adverse consequences of false positive and false negative diagnoses and the gap of information in the diagnostic efficacy of digital sensors in detection of secondary caries, this in vitro study sought to compare the diagnostic efficacy of two different resolutions of radiographs obtained by photostimulable pho...

conclusions the most common cause of restoration replacement in patients referred to the babol university of dentistry during years 2013 and 2014 was secondary caries that were found in class ii restorations. patients and methods age, sex, type of occlusion, dmf, existing parafunction, type of tooth, class and reason of composite restoration replacement was recorded for patients who had referre...

Secondary caries, the lesion at the margin of a restoration, has been widely considered as the most important and common reason for restoration replacement, regardless of the restorative material type [Collins et al., 1998; Dahl and Eriksen, 1978; Deligeorgi et al., 2001; Friedl et al., 1995; Mjör, 2005; Mjör and Toffenetti, 2000;]. As it develops after the initial caries has been removed and r...

Background and Aim: Considering the consequences of false positive (FP) and false negative (FN) diagnoses as well as the lack of information on the diagnostic ability of photostimulable phosphor plate (PSP) and complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) sensors in the detection of secondary caries, this study aimed to compare the diagnostic ability of these two sensors in the detection of s...

Background and Aim: Secondary caries are a common challenge for dentists. Many researchers have evaluated the accuracy of digital radiographic systems in the detection of secondary caries and have reported controversial results. Therefore, the aim of this in vivo study was to determine the diagnostic accuracy of digital radiography in the detection of secondary caries in anterior teeth. Mate...

OBJECTIVES The present study evaluated the microtensile bond strength and caries formation on adhesive/dentin interfaces before and after dynamic chemical formation of secondary caries. METHODS Restorations were prepared on the dentin surface of 80 bovine incisors using four adhesive systems: two fluoride-free (Single Bond and Clearfil SE Bond) and two fluoride containing (Optibond Solo Plus ...
