Oral mucosa lesions cause oral sores, discoloration, and anomalies. Oral mucosa genetic and developmental disorders may affect anybody. Oral cavity carcinoma causes 4% of all malignancies worldwide. Early detection of oral cancer improves survival rates. Oral precancerous diseases include color, abnormalities, surface texture, and location that predict malignancy. The goal of this study was to examine the Saudi Arabians' awareness of oral health and oral hygiene. An observational, cross-sectional approach was adopted for the study. Individuals with a probable malignant oral disease who visited an OPD at a dental hospital and had relevant behaviors were recruited in the study. In …

Background: Although visual inspection is the preferred route in everyday clinical practise for detecting early caries lesions, novel technologies like light fluorescence-based devices (Vista Proof iX HD smart) have been developed to enhance early caries detection. Material and Methods: Occlusal surface of 45 molar and 49 premolar teeth from 34 adult participants who fulfilled the eligibility criteria were examined by two observers using three diagnostic methods. Examination was performed visually using the International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS-II) followed by Vista Proof. Fissurotomy was applied for histological validation. Intra- and inter-observer agreement were measured for ICDAS-II and light-induced fluorescence …

Aims and Objectives: Scaling is important for maintenance of gingival and periodontal conditions. These procedures have a harmful effect on the dental hard tissues. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of hand and ultrasonic instruments made of stainless and titanium on the surface properties of enamel. Materials and Methods: Forty extracted premolars were used in this in vitro study and were randomly divided into four groups (n = 10). Group I received ultrasonic scaling with stainless steel tip, group II received ultrasonic scaling with titanium tip, group III hand scaling with stainless steel tip, and group …
