    Dental Kaygı ve Ağız Hijyeni Farkındalığı Arasındaki İlişkinin Belirlenmesi
    (2023) Musa Kazım ÜÇÜNCÜ; Sevda ÖZEL YILDIZ; Haşmet ULUKAPI
    Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, dental kaygı düzeyinin, oral hijyen ve ağız diş sağlığı farkındalığı arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesidir. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışma İstanbul Okan Üniversitesi çalışanları ve öğrencileri kapsamında toplam 431 katılımcı ile gerçekleştirildi. Hazırlanan anket formu internet üzerinden katılımcılara gönderilerek anket formlarının doldurulması istendi. Anket formunun ilk kısmı yaş, cinsiyet, diş hekimine gitme sıklığı, diş fırçalama sıklığı, yardımcı enstrüman kullanımı gibi sosyodemografik bulguları ve oral hijyen farkındalığını ortaya koyan sorular içermektedir. İkinci kısım ise Modifiye Dental Anksiyete Skalası’nı (MDAS) içermekte ve katılımcıların dental kaygı seviyelerini ölçmektedir. Bulgular: “Cut off” değeri ≥19 baz alındığında 431 katılımcının %6.7’sinin (n=29) yüksek dental kaygı düzeyine sahip olduğu görüldü. Kadınlar (11.35±4.49), erkeklere (10.43±4.12) göre daha yüksek dental kaygıya sahip ve cinsiyete göre MDAS düzeyleri arasında istatistiksel açıdan anlamlı farklılık bulunurken (p=0.046); eğitim seviyelerine (p=0.680) göre istatistiksel açıdan anlamlı farklılık saptanmadı. Arayüz fırçası kullanan ile kullanmayan katılımcıların dental kaygı düzeyleri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılığa rastlanırken (p=0.028); diş hekimine gitme sıklığına göre dental kaygı seviyeleri arasında istatistiksel açıdan yüksek derecede anlamlılık tespit edildi (p

    Evaluation of treatment and restoration preferences in deep carious teeth with various pulp exposure sizes: A questionnaire-based survey
    (Wiley, 2023) Yurdaguven, Guelsah Yenier; Isik, Vasfiye; Ciftcioglu, Elif; Ulukapi, Hasmet; Kayahan, Mehmet Baybora; Endodonti / Endodontics
    This study evaluated the management preferences in a deep carious vital tooth. A questionnaire was e-mailed to members of the Turkish Dental Association. The questionnaire included a photograph and radiographs of an extremely deep carious molar (#16) of a 30-year old man suffering from cold and chewing sensitivity. The dentists were asked to choose treatments for pulp exposure of <1, 1- 2, and =2 mm and a permanent restoration. Chi-squared test was used to analyse data (p < 0.05). 504 (4.84%) of 10 411 dentists responded. When the pulp exposure was <1 mm: direct pulp capping (84.9%); 1- 2 mm: root canal treatment (49.6%); =2 mm: root canal treatment (85.7%) were the most preferred treatments. 69.6% of the respondents chose direct composite restorations. If the tooth would be an abutment, most respondents preferred root canal treatment, regardless of the perforation size. The extent of pulp exposure and the type of permanent restoration influenced the treatment decision making process.

    Occluding Efficiency of Different Desensitizing Agents and Er,Cr:YSGG Laser on Dentin Tubules
    (Operative dentistry inc, 2024) Uslu, Y. S.; Donmez, N.; Gungor, A. S.; Akalin, T. T.; Ulukapi, H.
    Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of two desensitizers and the Er,Cr:YSGG laser on human dentin tubules, applied alone or in combination. Methods: Ninety-six dentin specimens were obtained from extracted third molars and divided into six groups: Group 1: no -treatment (Control); Group 2: nano-hydroxyapatite desensitizer (NhapD); Group 3: NhapD+Er,Cr:YSGG laser (L); Group 4: Er,Cr:YSGG laser (L); Group 5: glutaraldehyde desensitizer (GD); and Group 6: GD+L, respectively. All specimens were evaluated using scanning electron microscopy. The diameter and the number of open dentin tubules, the tubules' occluding ratio, and the mineral coverage area were measured via the Image J software at 2000x magnification. Atomic force microscopy was used to determine the blocking mechanism of desensitizing treatments and the surface morphology of dentin specimens. One-way ANOVA and Tukey tests were used for statistical analysis. Results: The number of open tubules and the mean diameter of tubules for all treatment groups showed statistically significant differences from the control group The NhapD+L group had a significantly lower number of open tubules than the L and GD groups. The NhapD+L and L groups significantly had higher occluding ratios than the other groups. Conclusions: The present study showed that the Er,Cr:YSGG laser alone was effective in terms of tubule occlusion and also contributed to increasing the occluding ratio of nano-hydroxyapatite. It may be recommended to use the Er,Cr:YSGG laser with nano-hydroxyapatite desensitizers to achieve effective tubule occlusion

    Temperature changes and thermo-light polymerization efficacy of two LED curing lights and 445-nm diode laser on glass carbomer material
    (Springer International Publishing, 2021) Sesen Uslu,Y.; Ozveren,N.; Donmez,N.; Ulukapı,H.
    Purpose: To evaluate thermo-light polymerization efficacy on the Vickers microhardness (VH) of a glass carbomer material (GCP) and on temperature changes (ΔT) using a diode laser (445 nm, DL) and two light-emitting diode (LED) units. Methods: Fifty-four GCP samples (2 × 8 mm) were prepared and exposed to three polymerization units: GCP CarboLED (G1), 3 M Elipar™ DeepCure-S (G2), and 445-nm SIRO Laser Blue (G3). A K-type thermo-couple was used to measure ΔT. After 24 h, VH values were measured, and surface changes were evaluated. The data were analysed by t test, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Welch ANOVA, and Tamhane post hoc tests (p < 0.05). Results: Both ΔT and VH measurements were evaluated; G1 showed significantly lower temperature increase values and lower VH values than the other groups (p < 0.001), but no significant difference was observed between G2 and G3(p > 0.05). There were no alterations in surface morphology or chemical composition of GCP after laser treatment. Conclusion: 3 M Elipar and 445-nm DL applications yielded higher VH compared to GCP CarboLED, but with higher temperature increases. Application of 445 nm DL has the advantage of causing no difference between top and bottom VH values. Clinical significance. Our data reveal that heat application with any one of these three devices was safe for all treatment groups without causing pulp damage. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

    The comparison of different coronal restorations of endodontically treated posterior teeth on the patients' quality of life and satisfaction
    (Kerman Univ Medical Sciences, 2021) Ates, Ayfer Atav; Cam, Melek; Ulukapi, Hasmet
    BACKGROUND AND AIM: Everyday lives of individuals can be affected by dental treatments. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impacts of coronal restorations of endodontically treated posterior teeth (ETPT) on the patient's satisfaction and quality of life (QoL). METHODS: This cross-sectional clinical study was conducted at School of Dentistry, Istanbul Okan University, Istanbul, Turkey, using the semantic differential scale, Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14), and clinical assessments. Electronic charts and files of patients who received endodontic treatment and coronal restoration from June 2018 to January 2019 were reviewed. The patients included in the study had been treated by the same endodontist and restorative dental specialist. The coronal restoration of the ETPT had to be either direct composite restoration (DCR) or indirect ceramic restoration (ICR). 123 patients were deemed fit for this study. A rendezvous was created for the patients who agreed to participate in the study (n = 115) and those who came to the appointment were checked for the inclusion criteria. After clinical examinations, 68 patients filled in the questionnaires. Demographic information, the semantic differential scale, and the OHIP-14 scores-provided data were analyzed by Mann-Whitney U test, independent samples t-test, and the chi-square test. Statistical significance level was considered at P 0.05. RESULTS: 68 patients (n = 34 in each group) participated in the study. DCR and ICR groups had similar mean OHIP-14 scores (5.03 +/- 3.36 and 5.15 +/- 6.17, respectively) and general satisfaction scores (9.76 +/- 0.43 and 9.88 +/- 0.33, respectively) (P 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the satisfaction values of the two groups regarding cost, time involved, pain, aesthetics, chewing ability, pleasantness, and general satisfaction (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: According to the results of the present study, both treatment options have created similar satisfaction for patients and offered high QoL.

    The Effect of Whitening Mouthrinses on the Color Stability of a BIS-GMA Free Composite Resin: An Invitro Study
    (2023) Melek Cam; Hakan Yasin GÖNDER; Haşmet ULUKAPI
    Purpose: Recently, many whitening mouthrinses have appeared on the market with different ingredients due to their ease in use and low costs. Whether these mouthrinses change the color of composite resins has been a matter of curiosity. In our study, it was aimed to investigate the effect of whitening mouthrinses with different chemical structures on the color stability of a resin composite that does not contain Bis-GMA. Materials and Methods: Seventy specimens (8 mm x 2 mm) were prepared from a Bis-GMA free composite resin. These specimens randomly divided into seven groups, according to the mouthrinses (n=10): Listerine Advanced White, Colgate Optic White, Perfect White Black, Crest 3D White, Pasta Del Capitano, Oral B 3D White Luxe. The control group used in the study was distilled water. After the baseline color measurement values were recorded with a spectrophotometer (Vita Easy Shade V, Vita Zahnfabrik, Bad Sackingen, Germany), the samples were kept in mouthrinses for 24 hours. At the end of the keeping period, color measurements were repeated and changes in color values were calculated (∆Eab) using the CIE L*a*b* color system. Statistical analysis of the values obtained was made according to Kruskal Wallis test . Results: Considering the median color change, samples demonstrated color changes within clinically acceptable limits in whitening mouthrinses after immersion (∆Eab = 1.005 - 2.062). There was no statistically signiőcant difference among the whitening mouthrinses (p =0.183). Conclusions: Whitening mouthrinses used in this study did not cause a signiőcant color change during our holding time in Bis-GMA free composite resin
