(Annales Universitatis Turkuensis D 979Turun yliopisto, 2011-10-07)
<b>Aim and design:</b> To evaluate an oral health program directed to expecting families and their children. The intervention was carried out in one of the four health care areas of the city of Turku. Another area acted ...
Photoinitiated curing of orthodontic adhesive resin
(Turun yliopisto, 2021-04-07)
In orthodontic bonding a bracket is placed on the tooth enamel and forces are applied to move the teeth. Orthodontic bracket should therefore be resistant to both applied and masticatory forces. Polymerization of the ...
Surface dissolution and degradation of dental resin-based materials with special emphasis by the effects of solvent ethanol, dimethacrylate monomer resin and catalyst solution of ethylene glycol
(Turun yliopisto, 2020-08-14)
In today’s modern dentistry, various synthetic materials are used for the replacement or restoration of the missing teeth or parts of teeth structures. These are primarily either polymers or composite materials. The evolution ...
Bonding of orthodontic brackets to enamel: Studies on the clinical outcome of bracket bonding and approaches to increase the bond strength of the adhesive interface
(Turun yliopisto, 2020-08-21)
ABSTRACT
An extensively used form of orthodontic treatment is the use of fixed appliances, where brackets are attached to the teeth for the duration of the treatment, often with light curing adhesives. The adhesion ...
Administration of Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis BB-12 and xylitol with a novel pacifier in early childhood
(Annales Universitatis Turkuensis D 1039Turun yliopisto, 2012-11-23)
Probiotic bifidobacteria are used in the prevention and treatment of childhood diseases.

Bioactive glasses in air particle abrasion treatment of contaminated implant surfaces
(Turun yliopisto, 2021-11-05)
The use of dental implants has become an established treatment modality with a predictable survival rate. However, inflammation of peri-implant tissue, peri-implant mucositis, may occur over time due to the establishment ...
Relationship between Daily Habits, Oral Microbiota and Caries with Special Reference to Xylitol
(Annales Universitatis Turkuensis D 1127Turun yliopisto, 2015-04-24)
Caries is a plaque-associated multifactorial chronic disease. Oral hygiene habits, sugar, and oral micobiota interactions are important for caries to occur. Xylitol has been shown to reduce caries mainly due to its effects ...
Monolithic zirconium dioxide as a full contour restorative material: With special emphasis on the optical and mechanical properties
(Annales Universitatis Turkuensis D 1188Turun yliopisto, 2015-10-09)
Full contour monolithic zirconia restorations have shown an increased popularity in the dental field over the recent years, owing to its mechanical and acceptable optical properties. However, many features of the restoration ...
