Aim: Pits and fissures are considered the areas in the posterior teeth that are most susceptible to decay. The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the prevalence of fissure types in relation to tooth type and localization. Methodology: A total of 100 extracted sound maxillary and mandibular molars and premolars were included in this study (25 teeth/group). The extracted teeth without any caries, cracks, fractures, anomalies, or restorations were classified according to tooth type and localization after disinfection. The teeth were sectioned in the buccolingual direction from the deepest part of the central fossa on the occlusal surface, and the fissure patterns were observed using a stereo microscope. The frequency distribution and percentages of the categorical data were obtained. Chi-square and exact tests were performed to compare the localization of the teeth and the prevalence of fissure types (p < 0.05). Results: The V-type fissure pattern (59%) was statistically significantly more common in both the premolar and molar teeth, followed by the I-type (18%) and U-type (14%) patterns (p = 0.000). The rarest fissure pattern was the IK type. No relationships were found between fissure pattern, the tooth subgroups, and localization (p = 0.390). Conclusion: Determining the types of fissure morphology is important for the prevention of caries on the occlusal surfaces of molars and premolars.

Aim: Carabelli’s trait, a morphological feature on the mesiopalatal surface of the maxillary molars, has importance in anthropology, forensic sciences, and clinical dentistry. The aim of this study was to find the frequency and degree of expression of Carabelli’s trait and to assess the asymmetry of the trait, on three permanent maxillary molars in a sample of Turkish individuals. Methodology: Carabelli’s trait was evaluated using Dahlberg’s eight-grade scale on 462 subjects. Data were analyzed using a chi-square test. Results: The frequencies in the total, positive and negative expressions of the trait were, respectively, 64.5%, 37.7% and 26.8% on the first molars, 27.1%, 19.6% and 7.6% on the second molars and 10.3%, 8.7% and 1.6% on the third molars. The occurrence of the trait on the first and second molars was more prevalent in males than in females. The trait was most frequently bilateral and symmetrical without significant sex differences, with varying degrees of asymmetry that increased from the first to the third molars. The frequencies of presence-absence asymmetry and any degree of asymmetry on the first molars were 5.3% and 15.7%, respectively. Conclusion: This study revealed a comparatively high frequency of Carabelli’s trait with a relatively low asymmetry in a contemporary Turkish sample. This data has the potential to be used for anthropological, forensic, and clinical purposes. How to cite this article: Yılancı HÖ, Özkan G, Akkaya N, Boyacıoğlu H.

Aim: Air powder polishing (APP) can cause roughness on composite surfaces, and consequently the color change that occurs over time affects the aesthetic negatively. Here, we aim to investigate the effect of repolishing on the roughness and discoloration of resin composites after APP to avoid its negative effects for the first time. Methodology: A total of 39 composite discs were randomly allocated into three groups: Group I: Control (n = 13), Group II: Air Powder Polished (n = 13), and Group III: Air Powder Polished + Re-polished (n = 13). Color and surface roughness of the discs were measured before and after immersion in coffee for 1 week. Color was measured using a colorimeter (CR-400, Konica Minolta), and roughness was measured using a surface roughness analyzer (SJ-400, Mitutoyo, Japan). Results: All specimens in the groups, except those in Group III, showed significant changes in roughness, and all materials showed significant color changes after immersion in the coffee relative to the baseline. There was no statistically significant difference between the groups in terms of roughness and color. Conclusion: In this study, we showed that repolishing after APP does not significantly improve the color stability and roughness of the composite restorations.

Aim: The aim of this study is to evaluate the change in the anxiety level of dentistry students and their perspective on distance education at the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and when the restrictions were reduced to a minimum. Methodology: The participants were undergraduate students of the faculty of dentistry who volunteered to participate in the study (n=297). A questionnaire was prepared, which includes the anxiety of the person during the COVID-19 period and in the last months and the opinions of students about the theoretical dentistry lessons taught with distance education. An Independent sample t-test was used for the comparison of the measurement values between the groups, and the one-way analysis of variance test was used for the comparison of more than two groups. Pearson correlation analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between anxiety levels. A value of p<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Compared to the genders, among the more enthusiastic thoughts in distance education, their thoughts that technology-based education is beneficial, and their thoughts that theoretical education should be realized through distance education, men answered yes at a higher rate than women (p <0.05). Compared to the early times of the COVID-19 pandemic, it was observed that there was a decrease in the anxiety scores of the participants in the last months when their precautions were reduced. Conclusion: It was observed that male students were more inclined to use the internet, according to the findings that technology-based education is beneficial, their preferences for distance education, and they are motivated in distance education. Due to the interruption of face-to-face education and the sudden transition to distance education during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is important to identify the deficiencies in this education method and develop this system.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine the effects of materials used and length of extension into the pulp chamber on stress distribution in mandibular molar endodontic treated teeth with endocrown restoration using a 3D finite element analysis (FEA). Material and Methods: Three-dimensional finite element analysis models were obtained at 2 different pulpal extension depths by taking a tomography of a canal-treated mandibular molar tooth extracted for periodontal reasons: 2.5 mm (Model A), 3.5 mm (Model B). Models are divided into 3 groups according to material type: Vita Enamic (VE), Lava Ultimate (LU), IPS e.max CAD (EMX). There are also 2 different subgroups for the cement types used: NX3, and MaxCem Elite Chroma (MX) Maximum principal stress (MPa) values under 600 N vertical loads were investigated to evaluate the effect of restoration design, material type and cements used on stress distribution. Result: The maximum stress on the restoration was observed in the EMX material type (13,000 MPa) in the MX cement group in Model A, while the lowest was observed in the LU material (5,932 MPa) in the NX3 cement group in Model A. The highest stress areas for model A and model B were observed in the restoration areas corresponding to the enamel margins. Conclusions: Materials with higher elastic modulus show a high-stress area on the restoration surface, while the stress values they transmit are lower. Materials, where the elastic modulus is close to dentin have more homogeneous stress distributions within the restoration.

Aim: Tooth decay is recognized as the world's most common bacterial infection. Despite preventive practices to prevent dental caries, early childhood caries continues to be a health problem that concerns the whole world. The incidence of ECC may vary depending on the cultural habits of societies regarding infant feeding. The aim of this study is to evaluate parents' attitudes about early childhood caries, to determine their misbehaviors that cause ECC, and to evaluate their knowledge level about preventive and preventive treatments. Methodology: The study was conducted on 150 participants. The research is a cross-sectional survey study, and it was hand-made to the parents who applied to the clinic. Participation in the research was completely voluntary, and parents who submitted a fully filled questionnaire and volunteered to participate in the study were included, while parents who did not want to participate in the study, did not answer at least one question, were illiterate, and were excluded from the study. Results: 67.3% of the parents participating in the study were female (n=101), and 32.7% were male (n=49). 36.7% of the participants said, “The bacteria that cause caries can be passed from mother/caregiver to child.” He gave the correct answer by answering yes to the proposition. 42.7% of the participants said, "The first sign of dental caries is white spots on the tooth surface." While answering yes to the proposition, 79.3% said, “If early childhood caries is not treated, it can affect the general health and development of the child.” He gave the correct answer by answering yes to the proposition. Conclusion: The risk determinants of ECC should be identified as early as possible, and the most appropriate preventive measures should be implemented rapidly with accurate information and on-site interventions.

Aim: In our study, it is aimed to investigate the effects on vital signs by measuring fever, oxygen saturation, pulse, and blood pressure from the patient before, during, and after local anesthesia application. Methodology: Patients who applied to Necmettin Erbakan University, Faculty of Dentistry, Department of Pedodontics between January 2021 and July 2022, who had epilepsy and needed dental treatment; After clinical/radiographic examination, Necmettin Erbakan University Meram Medical Faculty Pediatric Neurology Department was sent for consultation. Within the scope of the research, temperature, oxygen saturation, pulse, and blood pressure measurements were made before, during, and after anesthesia in 39 procedures performed on 19 patients in total. SPSS 23 program was used for the statistical analysis of data. Before the analysis of the data, Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Shapiro-Wilk tests were applied to test the normality of the distribution. Paired sample t-test was used to examine the fever, pulse, blood pressure, and oxygen saturation levels of the participants before, during, and after anesthesia. The statistical significance level in the study was accepted as p<0.05. Results: There was a statistically significant difference between the participants' pulse measurements during anesthesia and their post-anesthetic pulse measurements (p= 0.049). There was a statistically significant difference between pre-anesthesia oxygen saturation measurements and pre-anesthesia oxygen saturation measurements (p= 0.042). There was a statistically significant difference between the pre-anesthesia oxygen saturation measurements and the post-anesthetic oxygen saturation measurements of the participants (p= 0.012). Conclusion: In patients with a history of epilepsy, attention should be paid to the anesthetics used during the procedure and the consequences of dental anxiety, and dental treatments should be planned within the necessary precautions.

Aim: This study aims to question the effect of visual distance on color selection by scoring the maxillary central tooth color with the visual color selection method and to investigate the relationship between tooth color and patient age. Material and Methods: Maxillary central tooth color was determined by a single operator using visual methods from two different distances, 35 cm, and 70 cm, in a total of 100 people between the ages of 20-80 and of different genders. The value, hue, and ages of the teeth were recorded using the VITA Toothguide 3D-MASTER color scale at 2 different viewing distances. Visual color selection was made in natural daylight, preferably between 10:00 and 12:00 in the morning. Subjects were observed at eye level, and all color assessments were performed rapidly (5-7 s). Independent T-test was used for independent groups and the Chi-square test was used for dependent groups. Result: Considering the relationship of lightness with distance, there is a significant difference between the values at 35 cm and 70 cm distances. It was observed that the lightness increased when the measurements made from 70 cm were compared with the measurements made from 35 cm. As the age increases, the ratio of the brightness value of 1, which is the highest lightness, decreases, and the ratio of the darker 3 and 4 lightness increases. R (reddish) hue was higher in the 40-59 and over 60 age groups compared to the 20-39 age group. Conclusion: It was observed that the tooth color was determined lighter in the measurements made from 70 cm compared to the measurements made from 35 cm. It is important to determine the color at 35 cm so that the incorrect lightness (value) is not selected. It can be said that as the age increases, the tooth gets darker, and the reddish and yellowish hue increases.

Aim: The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of different ground coffee types on the color change on nanohybrid and bulk fill composites. Methodology: A total of 80 disc-shaped samples were made from 2 types of A2 resin with nanohybrid (Tetric N Ceram Ivoclar Vivadent, Schaan, Liechtenstein) and bulk fill (Filtek Bulk Fill, 3M ESPE, St. Paul, MN, USA) structure with the help of 5 mm diameter and 8 mm thickness Teflon molds in this study. All samples were finished and polished with 4-stage (thick, medium, fine, superfine) polishing discs (Sof-lex, 3M ESPE, St. Paul, MN, USA) and kept at 37 °C for 24 hours. The samples, whose initial color measurements were made by spectrophotometer (VitaEasyShade, Vita ZahnFabrik, Bad Sackingen, Germany), were divided into subgroups for the control group and 4 types of ground-based coffee beverages including filter coffee, Turkish coffee, espresso, and Mırra (n=8). Distilled water used as control. Prepared coffees were added to the microcentrifuge tubes and refreshed daily during the 14-day exposure period. ΔE values were calculated for each material. The statistical analyses of the present study were performed using one-way analysis of variance and Tukey multiple comparisons (p=0.05). Results: There was no significant color change for both nanofill and bulk-fill composite groups in the control group samples (p>0.05). Filter coffee was found the most colorant coffee type on both composites (p<0.05). Among the coffee types, Mırra caused the least coloration in both composites. Conclusion: The consumption of two or more cups of coffee per day, especially filter coffee, can cause color changes on both conventional and bulk-fill composites, and it should be considered an important factor causing aesthetic problems in dental restorations.
目的:研究不同咖啡粉类型对纳米复合材料和散装填充材料颜色变化的影响。方法:采用直径5mm、厚度为8mm的Teflon模具,采用两种A2树脂的纳米杂化(Tetric N - Ceram Ivoclar Vivadent, Schaan,列支敦士登)和填充(Filtek bulk fill, 3M ESPE, St. Paul, MN, USA)结构,共制备了80个盘状样品。所有样品用4级(厚、中、细、超细)抛光盘(soflex, 3M ESPE, St. Paul, MN, USA)完成和抛光,并在37°C下保存24小时。这些样品最初的颜色测量是用分光光度计(VitaEasyShade, Vita ZahnFabrik, Bad Sackingen, Germany)进行的,它们被分成了4个亚组,分别是对照组和过滤咖啡、土耳其咖啡、浓缩咖啡和Mırra (n=8)。用作对照的蒸馏水。将准备好的咖啡加入到微离心管中,并在14天的暴露期间每天刷新。为每种材料计算ΔE值。本研究的统计分析采用单因素方差分析和Tukey多重比较(p=0.05)。结果:对照组样品中纳米填充组和散装填充组颜色变化均不显著(p>0.05)。过滤咖啡在两种复合材料上的着色度最高(p<0.05)。在咖啡种类中,Mırra在两种复合材料中引起的着色最少。结论:每天饮用两杯或两杯以上的咖啡,特别是过滤咖啡,会导致常规和填充复合材料的颜色变化,这应该被认为是引起口腔修复美学问题的重要因素。

Aim: The purpose of this study was to assess the adequacy and success of meeting protective expectations with increasing time of fissure sealants with resin content made by dentistry students in our clinic. Methodology: The 6-month controls of the resin-based pit and fissure sealants applied by the 5th-grade dentistry students to the patients who applied to the Necmettin Erbakan University Faculty of Dentistry Pedodontics Clinic between January 2022 and February 2022 were checked, and their survival was checked. SPSS 26 statistical program was used in the analysis of the data. The statistical significance level in the study was determined as p<0.05. A total of 85 patients and a total of 516 teeth, including premolars and molars, were included in the study. Results: A total of 128 teeth were processed in the right maxilla, and total retention was observed in 102 teeth. Right maxilla; When the left maxilla (p=0.001), left mandible (p=0.011), and right mandible (p=0.001) were compared in terms of total retention, a statistically significant difference was found. When the teeth are compared among themselves, the highest rate of a total loss of 50% is in teeth 26 and 47. When the teeth are evaluated according to age, teeth numbered 14 (p=0.001) and 24 (p=0.001) are 9 years old, teeth 35 (p=0.001) and 45 (p=0.001) are 9-10 years old, and teeth number 44 (0.012) At the age of 10, the percentage of total loss was higher than the other age groups, and a statistically significant difference was found. This suggests that the ideal isolation of the permanent premolars may not have been achieved since they do not fully erupt at the age of 9-10. Conclusion: When all the results were evaluated, it was seen that the retention of fissure sealants depended on multiple factors, and their indications should be carefully examined.
