Effect of non ‐surgical periodontal treatment on gingival crevicular fluid and serum leptin levels in periodontally healthy chronic periodontitis and chronic periodontitis patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus
ConclusionNSPT was effective in improving clinical parameters, increasing GCF, reducing serum leptin levels, and also improving glycemic status in patients with CP and CP with T2DM. (Source: Journal of Investigative and Clinical Dentistry)

Electronic and paper mode of data capture when assessing patient ‐reported outcomes in the National Dental Practice‐Based Research Network
ConclusionThe electronic mode of data capture was as operational as the traditional paper mode, while also providing the advantage of eliminating data entry errors, not involving site research coordinators in measuring the patient ‐reported outcomes, and not incurring cost and potential delays due to mailing study forms. Electronic data capture of patient reported outcomes could be successfully implemented in the community dental practice setting. (Source: Journal of Investigative and Clinical Dentistry)

Qualitative assessment of published studies on pulpotomy medicaments for primary molar teeth
AbstractThe aim of the present study was to perform a qualitative assessment of published clinical studies, using the Medline database between 2006 and 2016, on commonly used pulpotomy medicaments. Standardized criteria proposed by Fuks and Papagiannoulis in 2006 was used by three independent examiners who assessed a total of 64 studies and graded the papers as grades A (38 ‐42), B1 (32‐37), B2 (25‐31), or C (<25) based on the score obtained. Dropout rates were calculated based on the initial sample and the final sample used for analysis. Only three papers were grade A, two of which were parts of the same clinical...

Does a combination of platelet ‐rich plasma and decalcified freeze‐dried bone allograft offer advantages over decalcified freeze‐dried bone allograft alone when using pocket depth and clinical attachment level as markers for periodontal healing? A literature review
The objectives were to primarily evaluate changes in clinical attachment level (CAL) and secondarily changes in pocket depth (PD). A search was performed of electr onic databases (Medline, PubMed, Embase, The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Web of Science), as well as hand searching and reference list searching. Only randomized, controlled trials published up until 30 March 2018 were included that had a follow‐up period of at least 6 mon ths. Four papers met the eligibility criteria and were critically appraised using the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials statement and put through the Cochra...

Effectiveness of casein phosphopeptide ‐amorphous calcium phosphate‐containing products in the prevention and treatment of white spot lesions in orthodontic patients: A systematic review
AbstractThe purpose of the present systematic review was to evaluate the effectiveness of casein phosphopeptide ‐amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP‐ACP)‐containing products in the prevention and treatment of active white spot lesions (WSL) in orthodontic patients. Searched the Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane, Virtual Health Language, ClinicalTrials, and Open Gray databases without limitations on the year or language of publication. We included controlled clinical trials with patients with fixed orthodontic appliances under the use of CPP‐ACP‐containing products compared to control, placebo, or other interv...

Influence of psychological stress exposure on orthodontic therapy: A comprehensive review
AbstractThe aim of the present study was to comprehensively review the influence of psychological stress exposure (PSE) on orthodontic therapy (OT). Original clinical and experimental studies were assessed. Quality assessment of experimental studies was performed using the Animal Research Reporting In Vivo Experiment (ARRIVE) guidelines. Six studies (2 clinical and 4 experimental) were included. One clinical study showed that PSE during OT significantly increases nickel release from orthodontic appliances into the saliva. In another study, maternal support was found to be an important predictor of the outcome of OT. In one...

Clinical performance of one ‐piece zirconia dental implants: A systematic review
AbstractThe aim of the present review was to evaluate the clinical and radiographic performance of one ‐piece zirconia implants (O‐PZI). This review followed the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis) guidelines that addressed the following focused question: What is the overall clinical and radiographic performance of O‐PZI? The MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Ce ntral Register of Controlled Trials, and Cochrane Oral Health Group Trials Register databases were searched. Six clinical studies were included. For studies evaluating O‐PZI compared with one‐piece titanium implants, zirco...

Could dental school teaching clinics provide better care than regular private practices?
SummaryDental school clinics (DSC) consist of unlicensed dental students delivering care under the supervision of licensed dental professionals. Care delivery is slow due to inexperience of the provider and the series of supervisory checks that are necessary. Cost of care to the patient is less. To date, there has been no evaluation of the benefits of receiving care in a DSC beyond reduced fees. Research has shown the value of teaching hospitals in medicine, and the purpose of this article was to evaluate the total sum of benefits (the value proposition) of receiving dental care in a DSC.
