The objective of this project is to develop a resin-based composite containing DCPD particles (dicalcium phosphate dihydrate, CaHPO4.2H2O) to be used in minimally invasive restorations, and evaluate its efficacy in the functional (or biomimetic) remineralization of artificially demineralized human dentin, combined or not with the PILP process. DCPD particles will be synthesized by co-prec…
The aim of this study will be to develop an experimental adhesive resin containing titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanotubes with alkyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (ATAB). The TiO2 nanotubes will be synthesized by hydrothermal method; characterized regarding their morphology, by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and their chemical bonds by infrared (FTI…
The aim of this study will be to evaluate the effect of the argon plasma application and priming on the bond strength of two resin cements to zirconia ceramics after 24 hours and after one year of water-storage. Materials and Methods: Eighty-six Katana and 80 Lava zirconia ceramic plates will be prepared and each zirconia brand will be divided into four groups (n = 10): (1) untreated; (2)…

This research project comprises a clinical study to evaluate the performance of Class V restorations (carious cervical lesions) using a "bioactive" resin composite (Beautifil II, Shofu Inc.) in patients submitted to treatment for head and neck cancer. Restorations with a regular resin composite without "bioactivity" (NeoSpectra ST, Dentsply Sirona) will be used as a Control. The restorati…
This study aims to characterize four mechanical tests to assess bond strength and toughness. Tests will be compared based on data consistency, reproducibility, and clinical relevance. Human teeth will be selected following the protocol established by the Piracicaba Dental School Ethics Committee (FOP - UNICAMP). The dentin specimens will be prepared according to the requirements of each t…
This study will evaluate the effects of applying a caries detector containing red acid in propyleneglycol (EVC) and silver diamine fluoride (DFP) in root dentin affected by caries on the bond strength to dentin, dentin-composite morphology and enzymatic activity. Selected molar teeth with carious root lesions will be cleaned and kept in distilled water. The softened caries layer will be r…

This project proposes to evaluate the microtensile bond strength of an"universal" adhesive applied to enamel and dentin, which will be subjected to differentpretreatments, including acid etching and blastings. In addition, the tooth-adhesiveinterface micromorphology will be analyzed according to different surfacepretreatments. The experimental design for enamel will involve three treatmen…
The aim of this study will be to evaluate the presence of cracks in laminated veneers restorations cemented with 4 different luting agents (Variolink Esthetic; Surefil SDR; Filtek Z100; VisCalor). Forty bovine incisors buccal surface will be flattened and polished with silicon carbide sandpaper. The incisors will be molded and feldspathic ceramic discs (diameter 10 mm x thickness 0.5 mm) …
The choice of a certain orientation of three-dimensional (3D) printing of provisional restorations might interfere in important properties for their intra-oral longevity. The purpose of this research project is to characterize, through degree of conversion, composition and microstructure analyses, resins for 3D-printing (R3D) indicated for indirect provisional restorations, and evaluate t…

This study will develop and evaluate an injectable photocrosslinkable gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogel with a flavonoid baicalein (BA)-loaded-nanotubes as a biocompatible and biodegradable strategy to release BA for vital pulp therapies. This study will use the baicalein flavonoid at 10 mM and 20 mM concentrations. This compound will be encapsulated into a halloysite aluminosilicate …
This project aims to evaluate the properties, regarding mechanical strength and dimensional stability, of 3D printing experimental materials for provisional restoration. The following modifications in the 3D resin materials and in the 3D printing process were proposed: the incorporation of silanized filler particles and a photoinitiator system responsive to the blue light length, together…
Overlays or occlusal veneer restorations are reliable techniques that provide minimal removal of dental tissue and can be indicated to restore endodontically treated teeth in order to protect remaining dental tissues. However, it's important to notice that this type of restoration may be less resistant to mechanical forces during chewing process. Furthermore, this characteristic could be …
