Casein phosphopeptide (CPP) complexes have been shown to promote remineralisation of dental tissues affected by dental caries. However, remineralisation takes time and can be limited by the delivery and composition of the ...

This project characterises and assesses the immunological effects of outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) produced by major periodontal pathogens Porphromonas gingivalis, Treponema denticola and Tannerella forsythia. An OMV ...

Demarcated hypomineralised lesions (DHL) of dental enamel are qualitative developmental defects including molar-incisor hypomineralisation (MIH), hypomineralised second primary molars (HSPM) as well as other demarcated ...

Candida albicans has been widely reported in the aetiology of oral cancer. However, the role of its interaction with members of the oral microbiome, such as Actinomyces naeslundii and Streptococcus mutans, in promoting ...

This research focused on evaluating the effect of casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) incorporated into a glass ionomer cement (GIC). Two conventional GIC materials were the main focus of the study, ...

Background: Resins such as a polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) are the most commonly used in denture base material (DBR) because it possesses the advantage of adequate physical, mechanical, and aesthetic properties. However, ...

The number of Victorians who have had dental care under a general anaesthetic (DGA) has increased over the last 15 years. This procedure is necessary for dental treatment for some people. It is also costly and although ...

Background The population seeking implants in private practice is a demographically and medically diverse group. A fuller understanding of the medical conditions affecting this population can optimise treatment planning ...

Purpose: To retrospectively describe and analyse, with reference to the published literature, the augmentation profiles and any associated complications of grafting for dental implants that were placed and/or restored in ...

Calcium silicate-based cements (CSCs) are self-setting hydraulic endodontic repair cements commonly used in endodontic procedures involving hard tissue repair and regeneration, such as pulp capping, pulpotomy, apexogenesis, ...
