“…Very few patients have ever had a dental dam and even more before 18 years old. This dental surgical field system, which has been available for more than 150 years, offers considerable dental benefits in terms of comfort for the practitioner and the patient, both in terms of technique and feeling during dental treatment . This tool is underused by dentists .…”

Background: Dental anxiety is a psychological response inducing aversion following a dental ill-defined stimulus, non-imminent and perceived as potentially dangerous. It is better to intervene during childhood than to resolve in adulthood when dental anxiety is more settled. Aim: The purpose of this study is to determine the nature of dental anxiety-provoking stimuli in young patients. Design: A questionnaire was submitted to 566 children between 3 to 18 years in health institutions and schools in Brussels, Belgium. The items were divided into 3 groups: environment (ENV), local anaesthesia (LA), and intervention (INT) and summarized through averaging per group. Descriptive analysis and non-parametric testing were combined with logistic regression after discretization, above mild, for the group averages. Results: About 7.2% of the respondents expressed high to severe dental anxiety.Several items presented a clear bimodal distribution dividing the population in fearless and fearing patients, for example, sight and feel of the syringe, sight and taste of blood and extraction. Others presented with a gradually lower incidence with increasing fear level. Fear for the environment was generally low. Gender and ethnic origin contribute significantly to the prediction of fear caused by LA. For fear caused by INT, first the place of questioning enters the models, thereafter follow: negative experience, frequency of dental visit, and gender (P < .05). Conclusions: While the dental environment is in general not causing fear, the invasive part of the anaesthesia and the invasive dental procedures are involved. Fear seems to be related to culture, previous experience, and gender. K E Y W O R D Schild, dental anxiety, etiology, pediatric dentistry, stimuli

“…The enamel/dentin side of all fractured specimens from each group was air-dried and examined with a scanning electron microscope (Miniscope TM3000; Hitachi High-Technologies, Tokyo, Japan) operating at 15 kV. The fracture modes were classified as follows: (1) cohesive failure in the restorative material; (2) mixed fractures; (3) adhesive failure at the enamel/dentinrestorative materials interface; (4) cohesive failure in enamel/dentin.…”

“…Contamination of the dental operation area by saliva and other fluids is detrimental to positive restoration outcomes and should be controlled. The use of a rubber dam enables the control of such contamination, allowing the dentist to focus on the actual clinical procedure [1][2][3][4] . The etiology of class V cervical lesions varies, including occlusal factors, brushing habits, dietary regimens, and psychological manifestations.…”

Influence of artificial saliva contamination on adhesion in class V restorations

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of artificial saliva contamination on a glass ionomer cement (GIC), a resin-modified GIC (RMGIC), and a composite resin (CR) that was used with two different etching adhesive systems. Three surface conditions were created on bovine teeth using artificial saliva: control (group I), mild saliva contamination (group II), and severe saliva contamination (group III). The microtensile bond strength (μTBS) of CR with dentin was significantly lower in group III than in group I. However, the μTBS of GIC and RMGIC with both enamel and dentin showed no significant intergroup differences. Moreover, CR exhibited significantly greater microleakage on cementum in group III than in group I, whereas both GIC and RMGIC showed no significant differences for both enamel and cementum. Thus, GIC and RMGIC may be suitable for preventing secondary caries after class V restorative treatments when contamination by saliva cannot be avoided.

“…4 Other researchers rely on the objective stress parameters that can be obtained by measuring pulse rate, breath rate, skin resistance, blood pressure. 5 Pit and fissure sealants (sealants) are one of the most widely used non-operative preventive methods in dental health care. The have been recommended for caries prevention along with good oral hygiene, optimal fluoridation, and healthy dietary habits.…”

Influence of rubber dam on objective and subjective parameters of stress during dental treatment of children and adolescents – a randomized controlled clinical pilot study

Abstract: Isolation with rubber dam caused less stress in children and adolescents compared to relative isolation with cotton rolls if applied by an experienced dentist.
