Abstract

Background: The aim of this study was to compare three different pulp coverage materials with calcium silicate content considering microleakage in the cavity floor and evaluate the gaps with a stereomicroscope and scanning electron microscope SEM. Methods: A total of 40 human molar teeth were used in this study, and class V (4 mm mesio-distal × 3 mm gingivo-occlusal × 3 mm depth) cavities were prepared. The samples were divided into four groups (N = 10), including NeoPutty(Nusmile), Biodentin (Septodont), and TheraCal PT (Bisco). All groups were restored using Single Bond Universal adhesive and Filtek Z250 (3M ESPE). The 0.5% basic fuchsin dye leakage was examined at 40× magnification under a stereomicroscope. SEM analysis revealed that the magnification was fixed at 1.00 KX on all the images. The gaps between the pulp coverage material and the cavity floor dentin were measured from four different points. Results: The different microleakage scores were statistically significant (p < 0.05) when the pulp coverage materials were compared considering microleakage. Conclusions: Within the scope of this study, the biocompatible pulp coating materials NeoPutty and Biodentin showed the least microleakage at the cavity floor and the smallest gaps on the dentin material combined surfaces. By contrast, TheraCal showed increased microleakage and large gaps.

Abstract

Background: Researches on motivation of students to choose dentistry as a profession has been conducted for many years. Students may choose to become dentists for reasons such as serving, being independent, working with their hands, gaining prestige, and financial security. Purpose: The aim of this study is to evaluate the factors in the career preferences of dental students, their expectations and opinions in the education process. Methods: 1,007 participants who answered the web-based questionnaire were included in this study. Obtained data were analysed using SPSS version 23.0 (Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). The Independent t test was used for intergroup comparisons in the data were normally distributed. Variables in more than two groups were compared using the one-way ANOVA test. Statistical significance was accepted as p<0.05 in all analyses. Results: A total of 1007 dentistry students, 370 (36.7%) male and 637 (63.3%) female, with a mean age of 21.15 ± 1.96 participated in the survey study. 236 (23.4%) of the participants were in the first grade, 236 (23.4%) in the second grade, 192 (19.1%) in the third grade, 261 (25.9%) in the fourth grade, and 82 (8.1%) in the fifth grade. 44% of the participants chose the option 'they want to be medicine or dentistry, but gaining dentistry because of their score in the university entrance exam' as the reason for choosing dentistry. Conclusion: Such studies will be useful for the procedures to be followed in eliminating stress and anxiety in students and in the pre-detection of problems.

Abstract

Background: Although dental trauma has been reported at various frequencies worldwide, as far as we know there are few data regarding the frequency of dental trauma during the pandemic period. Purpose: This study aims to retrospectively evaluate the data of pediatric patients who were admitted to the Department of Pedodontics in a university hospital due to dental trauma during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: Between April 2020 and December 2020, the clinical records regarding admissions to the Harran University Faculty of Dentistry Pedodontics clinic due to dental trauma were examined. The age and gender of the patient, type of trauma, teeth affected by the trauma, and treatment methods applied after the trauma were recorded. The data obtained were analyzed using the independent sample t-test for intergroup comparisons and Pearson chi-square test for categorical variables with the help of Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 23.0. Results: The data of 43 patients (27 males and 16 females) aged between 1–13 years (mean age: 9.13±3.20) who were admitted to the clinic with trauma complaints during an eight-month period were evaluated. It was determined that the most common trauma types in the pandemic period were simple crown fracture (25.6%) and subluxation/lateral luxation (23.3%). During the pandemic, 34.9% of all cases were "falling at home”, while "falling at school” was 14.0% (using the Pearson chi-square test). Conclusion: The COVID-19 pandemic period has affected many aspects of social life as well as the number of patients who were admitted for dental trauma and the causes of trauma. Multicenter studies are needed for more accurate results.
