Outcomes reporting in systematic reviews on non-surgical root canal treatment: A scoping review for the development of a core outcome set

Lise-Lotte Kirkevang et al.

Summary: Studies on non-surgical root canal treatment often lack standardization and exhibit heterogeneity in reporting outcomes. Most studies focus on physiological and clinical outcomes, such as pain and radiographic healing, but patient-centered outcomes and resource use are rarely reported. Measurements tools, scales, and follow-up periods vary greatly among studies, making comparison difficult.

The Effect of Chlorhexidine Disinfectant Gels with Anti-Discoloration Systems on Color and Mechanical Properties of PMMA Resin for Dental Applications

Zbigniew Raszewski et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the effect of CHX-containing gels on PMMA denture base resin, with results showing that gels with 0.5% CHX concentration and citric acid had limited impact on the color and mechanical properties of PMMA, making them safe for oral hygiene use. The ADSs in these gels were effective in preventing CHX discoloration.
