Arealle E. FranklinFull Article (PDF)
Suman Challa
Rochisha Singh Marwaha
A survey of Alabama AGD members assessed attitudes toward and barriers to providing dental care for pregnant patients. Lack of education and/or training was the most frequently identified barrier, and dentists who did not receive residency training reported more confidence in their ability to provide care.

Solange LaudierFull Article (PDF)
Daniela Novaes Soares
Mirian de Waele Souchois de Marsillac
Vera Ligia Mendes Soviero
Tatiana Kelly da Silva Fidalgo
This study evaluated the bilateral symmetry of carious lesions in the primary and permanent teeth of children. The results suggest that the presence of a carious lesion on a tooth surface can predict vulnerability to caries on the contralateral tooth, allowing the dentist to pursue targeted preventive action.

Viet Hung Hoang Nguyen
Anh Chi Phan
This study evaluated the effects of high-concentration solutions of carbamide peroxide and hydrogen peroxide on the dentin-resin interface and shear bond strength of restorative materials. The shear bond strength increased significantly with a longer delay between bleaching and bonding (immediate vs 1-week delay vs 2-week delay), and there were no differences between bleaching solutions.

This study evaluated the effects of high-concentration solutions of carbamide peroxide and hydrogen peroxide on the dentin-resin interface and shear bond strength of restorative materials. The shear bond strength increased significantly with a longer delay between bleaching and bonding (immediate vs 1-week delay vs 2-week delay), and there were no differences between bleaching solutions.
