                  Juniper Publishers- Open Access Journal of Dentistry & Oral Health Comparative Study of the Possible Effect of Bovine and Some Plant-Based Milk on Cola-Induced Enamel Erosion on Extracted Human Mandibular First Premolar- Juniper Publishers Authored by  Nehad M Abd-Elmonsif Abstract Increased consumption of acidic soft drinks is becoming an important factor in the development of erosive wear .The potential of dairy drinks to protect enamel against dental erosion has been recorded. Recently, the demand for plant based milk beverages has been gaining popularity and used as an alternative to cow’s milk. Aim: reveal and compare the possible effects of bovine and three types of plant-based milk on enamel erosion caused by Coca-Cola®. Material and Methods: 42 extracted premolars were distributed over three groups: Control negative group where teeth were not subjected to any treatment, Control positive group where teeth were subjected to Coca-Cola® and E

                Juniper Publishers- Open Access Journal of Dentistry & Oral Health Main Factors Affecting the Final Color of Ceramic Restorations- Juniper Publishers Authored by  Yasamin Babaee Hemmati Abstract Nowadays, esthetic demands have been developed among the patients. Color is the crucial part of esthetic dentistry, and it is important to mimic the appearance of the adjacent natural teeth. Therefore, clinicians should know all the aspects related to the color and the factors which affect it. Ceramic restorations are considered as the treatment of choice in esthetic areas because of having no metal substructure. However, there are some difficulties in obtaining the desirable appearance with such restorations. It has been shown that several factors can affect the final color including cement thickness and color, ceramic thickness, abutments shade, and the number of firings. In the following, studies on the effective factors on the final color of ceramic restora

              Juniper Publishers- Open Access Journal of Dentistry & Oral Health Investigation the Effect of Restorations Fabricated with CAD/CAM Technology, the Heat-Press Technique, and Type of Resin Cement on Marginal and Internal Adaptation of All Ceramic Crowns- Juniper Publishers Authored by  Raafat Tammam Abstract Statement of the problem; the use of pressable and CAD/CAM ceramics have been lately frequently used in fixed prosthodontics. However, information about their marginal fit and internal adaptation are is little. Purpose: Marginal adaptation and internal adaptation are an important factor affecting the longevity of all ceramic restorations, so the purpose of the study was to evaluate the effect of restorations fabricated with CAD/CAM technology, the heat-press technique ceramic and luting agent on the Marginal Fit and Internal Adaptation of all Ceramic crowns. Materials & Methods: A total of 20 mandibular Second premolars teeth were used in thi

Chewing gum clears debris from your mouth: the increased volume of saliva helps wash away food particles, keeping away anything that tooth-nasty bacteria can get their hands on. Chewing gum helps with bad breath: dry mouth means sulfur made from bacteria on the tongue can evaporate easier. Sulfur evaporation from the tongue creates a bad smell. The bad's Excessive gum chewing can aggravate the jaw joint: when you chew gum excessively, the jaw and the joint it sits in becomes tender and aggr

          Juniper Publishers- Open Access Journal of Dentistry & Oral Health Dental Caries Prevalence and Severity among Deaf and Hearing Impaired Male Students in Eastern Saudi Arabia- Juniper Publishers Authored by  Hashim al-naser Abstract Objectives: To assess dental caries prevalence and severity in hearing-impaired (HI) and deaf adolescent male students in Eastern Saudi Arabia. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted of 109 male students (46 HI and 63 deaf) between the ages 12-18 yrs.The students were compared with 218 control students with no hearing disabilities. Two trained examiners carried out clinical examinations to assess the prevalence of dental caries using the Decayed, Missing, Filled surfaces (DMF/S) index. Data were analyzed by age category (12-14yrs, >14-16yrs, and >16-18yrs) and by hearing disability. The DMF/S index was dichotomized at the 75th percentile to determine the severity of dental caries. Results: More th
