Background: Teeth discoloration is considered disturbing performance,therefore bleaching become an option for teeth whitening. Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) is commonly used, it is beneficial for teeth whitening but in other hand it has adverse effectin lowering micro hardness of the tooth. Hydrogen Peroxide can be found in pears. The objectives of this research were to determine the influences of application duration and immersion time of tooth when immersed in pear juice toward its discoloration and micro hardness.Method: An experimental study with pre-post test controlled group design were conducted using 28 premolars teeth which divided into four groups. Group A and Bwere immersed in pear juice with concentration of 100% for 30 and 60 minutes/day. Group C and D were immersed in H2O2 3% for 30 and 60 minutes/day each for 14 days. Tooth color and micro hardness of each tooth sample were recorded before and on 7thand 14thdays after immersion. The data was analyzed by friedman test, repeated anova, one-way anova and post hoc.Result: The average of tooth color index based on the duration of application in all four groups showed significant changes, while the average change in micro hardness index based on the duration of applications were shown significant difference only in group C and D. The difference of time immersion in pear juice 100% for 30 and 60 minutes had no effect on tooth discoloration and micro hardness.Conclusion: It can be concluded that pear juice can be used as an alternative material for bleaching process without deteriorating it’s micro hardness.

Purpose. This study evaluates the effect of bleaching before or after veneer preparation and the depth of preparation on color masking ability of laminate veneers. Methods. Sixty extracted premolars were artificially stained to vita shade A4, verified by digital spectrophotometer (Vita Easy Shade V), and then divided into three groups: NB = nonbleached , BBP = bleaching before preparation, and BAP = bleaching after preparation. Based on the preparation depths, each group was further divided into two subgroups: S 1 = 0.5   mm and S 2 = 1.0   mm . BBP and BAP were subjected to one session of in-office bleaching using 35% hydrogen peroxide. IPS e-max CAD veneers of 0.5 and 1.0 mm thickness (corresponding to the preparation depths) of the same shade and translucency (HT A1) were cemented immediately to the bleached surfaces. Immediately after cementation, the color change Δ E between the baseline (after staining) and the resulted shades was measured using the Vita Easy Shade V digital spectrophotometer and CIELab color system. Results. Bleached groups exhibited a significant Δ E value compared to the nonbleached group ( p < 0.05 ). BAP showed the highest Δ E value. No significant difference was found between BBP and BAP. S2 revealed a significant Δ E value than S1 ( p < 0.05 ). No significant difference was found between S1of BAP and S2 of NB, BBP, and BAP ( p > 0.05 ). Regarding the color coordinates, the difference between the tested groups was highly significant in lightness ( Δ L ∗ ) ( p < 0.001 ), while no significant differences were found in green/red value ( Δ a ∗ ) and yellow/blue value ( Δ b ∗ ) ( p > 0.05 ). Conclusions. In cases of severe tooth discoloration, one session of in-office bleaching before or after veneer preparation and the preparation depth do not influence the color masking ability of laminate veneers.

Introduction: Tooth whitening (Bleaching) is a method to restore discoloured teeth to the original tooth colour with a chemical process. The materials used in the bleaching process are hydrogen peroxide, sodium perborates and carbamide peroxide. Pear fruit consists of hydrogen peroxide which is potentially an oxidizing compound that produces free radicals that react with unsaturated bonding teeth staining substances. This study aims to analyzed tooth whitening effect of exposure of pear juice with different frequencies. Methods: The type of research was true in vitro experiment where samples of 32 maxillary premolar teeth had cut the root to CEJ. The specimens divided into four groups. The first group was soaked in pear juice two times, the second group three times, a third group four times, and the fourth was the control group using only mineral water. Tooth colour was measure using a Spectrophometer, conducted before and after individual soaking. Results: The research result is tested with ANOVA and Newman- Keuls Range Test showed a significant difference of tooth whitening degree between the frequency exposure pear juice after 2 times soaking, 3 times soaking and 4 times soaking. Conclusion: There are difference degree of whitening from the difference frequency exposure of pear juice and Pear juice exposure of 4 times gives higher whitening effect compared to frequency of 3 times, 2 times and control group which is soaked in water.

Introduction: One of the most frequent dental problems that confronted dentist is tooth discoloration which can cause significant cosmetic problems. Extrinsic tooth discoloration occurs when stain forms on the tooth surface or in the pellicle and the common causes of extrinsic tooth discoloration is coffee. Robusta coffee contains high level of chromogenic compound which can incorporate itself into the acquired pellicle and tannic acids that can denature the pellicle protein and increase its stain ability. The purpose of this experiment was to investigate the tooth discoloring effect of Robusta coffee solution. Methods: This research type was a true experiment (in vitro) using 30 samples of maxillary first premolar whose roots had been cut until the CEJ. Samples were divided into 2 groups (which are soaked in Robusta coffee solution and the other in mineral water) of 15, with a frequency of three times daily for seven days. The difference in tooth color changes was measured by using a spectrophotometer. Results: This research was analyzed by using t-test and there was a significant difference between the two groups (p-value≤0.00). Conclusion: Robusta coffee effected to tooth discoloration.

Objectives: The main goal of this research was to determine the differences between the values of intraocular pressure (IOP) in the supine and sitting positions, and to assess the effect of age and cardiovascular parameters. Methods: Seventy-two healthy adults were enrolled and classified into age groups: 20–30 years (group A), 31–40 years (group B), and 41–71 years (group C). Corneal biometry and cardiovascular parameters, such as heart rate (HR), were measured. IOP measurements were taken in the sitting position (IOPS) and in the supine position (IOPL) using the iCare® Pro tonometer. Results: A significant difference between the IOPS and IOPL in the entire cohort was found ( p < 0.001). Regarding the age subgroups, a significant difference ( p < 0.001) between the IOPS and IOPL was obtained in group A (2.6 ± 1.6 mmHg) and group C (1.5 ± 1.3 mmHg). There were no significant differences in the IOPS between groups. The highest IOP values were obtained for group A. The correlations between HR and IOPS are statistically significant for group A and group B, and for HR and IOPL-S for group B only. Multivariate analysis showed that HR has a significant influence on the difference in IOP in the two body positions. Conclusion: A statistically significant difference between the effect of age and the values of IOPS and IOPL was shown. Cardiovascular parameters showed some relevant statistical dependencies, but with a rather marginal significance in young people. The influence of body position for the measurement of IOP for healthy subjects does not seem to matter, despite the fact that there are some dependencies that are statistically significant.

Abstract Background Osteoarthritis at the thumb carpometacarpal joint can have a profound impact on quality of life. Here, we evaluate radiographic outcomes in patients who have had open complete trapeziectomy, ligament reconstruction with tendon interposition, and acellular dermal matrix (GraftJacket) interposition—Group A, and compare them with those without GraftJacket interposition—Group B. Materials and Methods Thirty patients who had undergone operative treatment for thumb basal joint arthritis by a single surgeon from 2009 to 2016 were identified, and charts were retrospectively reviewed for demographic data, surgical and radiographic outcomes, and complications. Results There was no significant difference in pre- and postoperative radial abduction or pre- and postoperative palmar abduction. The difference in intraoperative joint space was significant (p = 0.006), but the difference in postoperative joint space was not (p = 0.310). The average amount of metacarpal settling was 6.9 versus 3.7 mm (p = 0.035) (Groups A and B, respectively). Three patients in Group A developed an inflammatory reaction to the GraftJacket, and one required reoperation for allograft removal. Conclusion This study suggests that thumb basal joint arthroplasty with GraftJacket interposition does not lead to more favorable radiographic outcomes at long-term follow-up. The increased costs associated with GraftJacket use may not be justified in light of these outcomes.

Background Migraine is one of the most common types of headache, with significant socioeconomic effects. Prophylactic drugs are used to prevent migraine headaches but are unpromising. Objective To assess the effects of adding acupuncture to conventional migraine prophylaxis. Methods One hundred patients with migraine (41 male, 59 female), in whom prophylactic drugs had not produced a fall of at least 50% in the number of attacks, entered the study. The patients were randomised into two groups, sham and true acupuncture. The patients in both groups continued their prophylactic treatment and received 12 sessions of either true or sham acupuncture. Each session was 30 min and was repeated three times a week. The number of headaches in the two groups was compared at baseline, and at the end of four successive months. Results There was no significant difference in the frequency of attacks between the two groups before intervention. After 1 month, the frequency of attacks each month decreased from 5.1 (0.8) to 3.4 (1.2) in the true acupuncture group, and from 5.0 (0.8) to 4.4 (1.1) in the sham acupuncture group (a significant difference, p<0.001). The frequency continued to decrease in month 2 but increased in months 3 and 4; however, it was still significantly lower than baseline, and the difference remained significant after month 4. Conclusions Acupuncture is applicable as an adjunct to prophylactic drugs in migraineurs in whom the number of attacks does not fall with prophylactic medication.
