The aim of this work was to reduce microleakage in giomer restorations by using innovative materials in both adhesive systems and light-cured dental giomer. Two adhesive systems with different primers were investigated. The innovative compounds in the primers were acrylic acid (AA)/itaconic acid (IA) copolymer modified with methacrylic groups and AA/IA/N-acryloyl-L-leucine copolymer grafted with methacrylic groups. In addition, the investigated new giomer G contains a pre-reacted glass based on the latter copolymer. The commercial Beautifil II giomer and the FL-Bond II adhesive system were used for comparison. Microleakage was evaluated by determining the scores and percentages of dye penetration lengths after thermocycling of a series of light-cured dental giomer restorations performed on 42 premolars extracted for orthodontic reasons. A lower microleakage value was recorded for the adhesive system containing the AA/IA/N-acryloyl-L-leucine copolymer grafted with methacrylic groups than for the commercial adhesive, which was in substantial agreement with SEM and AFM investigations. In this case, remarkable dentin sealing and a strong adhesion at the giomer restoration�tooth interface was observed, and the innovative adhesive was proven to be promising for dental applications.

Wearable and mobile health technology is becoming increasingly pervasive, both in professional healthcare settings and with individual consumers. This chapter delineates the various functionalities of this technology and identifies its different purposes. It then addresses the ethical challenges that this pervasiveness poses in the areas of accuracy and reliability of the technology, privacy and confidentiality of data, consent, and the democratization of healthcare. It also looks at mobile mental health apps as a case study to elucidate the discussion of ethical issues. Finally, the chapter turns to the question of how this technology and the associated “quantification of the self” affect traditional modes of epistemic access to and phenomenological conceptions of the self.

Privacy And Confidentiality

This chapter discusses some of the key ethical issues that arise in environmental health research involving human subjects, including returning individualized research results, protecting privacy and confidentiality, research on environmental interventions, intentional exposure studies, research regulations, autonomy, beneficence, informed consent, payments to subjects, and protecting vulnerable human subjects. The chapter will discuss issues that are common to all research designs, as well as those unique to certain types of designs, such as intentional exposure studies. It will also address ethical issues that arose in two important cases, the Kennedy Krieger Institute lead abatement study, and the Children’s Environmental Exposure Research Study.
