One Step bonding: Are you Ready ?
No more questions about whether Self-etch is better than total etch ? Finally the one step adhesives have come of age and offer a good bonding strength, easy application and most important no post restoration hypersensitivity. Here are two best products.
Bond-1 SF Solvent-Free Self-Etching Adhesive from Pentron
Bond-1 SF is a solvent-free, one-coat, self-etching adhesive. Suitable for use with direct composite and dual-cure materials, it provides bond strengths up to 30.4 MPa in 3 steps: uniform application, rubbing for 20 seconds, and light curing.
Bond-1 SF eliminates the need to air dry to protect against sensitivity; prevents evaporation for stability and consistency; eliminates the need to acid etch for shorter procedure time; and exhibits optimal handling properties for a uniform covering.
BeautiBond One-Step Adhesive Bonding Agent from Shofu
BeautiBond 7th generation bonding agent is formulated to provide bond strengths comparable to 4th, 5th, and 6th generation materials. BeautiBond is available in a convenient unit dose (0.1mL) delivery for one-step application with a single coat. The light-cure, self-etching adhesive offers fast and efficient 30-second delivery.
BeautiBond contains dual catalysts that work independently for durable bond strength to both enamel and dentin. With a low film thickness of less than 5 microns, BeautiBond is suitable for aesthetic and minimally invasive restorations. BeautiBond contains no HEMA, minimizing blanching of the gingival tissues and minimizing the degradation of hybrid layer and adhesive layer. With excellent biocompatibility and bonding durability, BeautiBond is an all-in-one adhesive that enables etching, priming and bonding in one simple step. It is supplied in kits of fifty 0.1mL unit doses and 50 pink fine microbrushes.

Management of Instruments Fractures and perforations
File fractures and root perforations during endodontictreatment are complications most frequently associated withaberrant root canal anatomy, canal calcification, anomalousroot shapes, and severe root curvatures. Perforations canoccur during removal of gutta-percha from drills used forpreparation of posts, during root cleaning and shaping, orwhen attempting to bypass fractured instruments lodged in theroot canal system. Teeth with fractured files may sometimes betreated by an orthograde approach from within the root canal system. Read FULL Paper

UK Dentist Jailed
A dentist who charged the NHS to fix healthy teeth has been jailed for fraud.
Geoffrey O'Sullivan was sentenced to four months' jail yesterday at Chelmsford Crown Court, charged with defrauding the NHS of £10,000 through false accounting following an investigation by NHS Counter Fraud. O'Sullivan has repaid £23,651 to the NHS and now faces a disciplinary hearing by the General Dental Council.
More than 400 false claims for treating NHS dental patients, many of them children, were made at O'Sullivan's Princel Lane Dental Surgery in the Essex village of Dedham.
A NHS CF expert dentist examined a number of children registered at O'Sullivan's surgery and found that expensive fissure sealant had been falsely claimed for many, including some with perfectly healthy teeth that had received no treatment at all. More here
Experts advise Mexicans to avoid dental treatment due to A/H1N1 flu
MEXICO CITY, May 6 (Xinhua) -- Mexican dental specialists on Wednesday advised people to avoid or delay dental treatment to keep the A/H1N1 flu from spreading as dentists or patients may be virus carriers.
In a communique from the School of Dentistry of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), dental specialists recommended that people should avoid dental appointments or reschedule them due to the nature of dental treatment.
Enrique Acosta Gio, head of Infection Control and Occupational Safety of the School of Dentistry at UNAM, said "all the people with influenza symptoms must delay their dental appointment till the sanitary alert is over."
The Mexican Health Ministry reported on Wednesday that 42 people have died in the country due to the A/H1N1 flu, while 1,070cases have been confirmed. Short presentation , Full info on Swine Flu
Microfabricated biocatalytic fuel cells: A new approach to accelerating the orthodontic tooth movement
Jafar Kolahia, Mohamadreza Abrishamib, Zéev Davidovitchc, published in Medical Hypothesis
Direct electric current is a potent biologic mean to accelerate periodontal tissue turnover and orthodontic tooth movement. The main problem associated with this approach is the source of electricity. A noninvasive, removable enzymatic micro-battery, will administer minute electric currents to the alveolar bone and oral soft tissues, utilizing glucose as a fuel, becoming a possible source of the electrical power required for accelerating the velocity of orthodontic tooth movement.
