Single-Agent Sedation for Behavioral Management in Pediatric Dentistry
Background: Dental fear and anxiety are highly prevalent in children, resulting in avoidance or incomplete dental treatment; sedation emerges as a possible behavioral management strategy. This umbrella review aimed to provide a structured and critical synthesis of the available knowledge on sedative single-agent efficacy and routes of administration employed for achieving sedation (excluding deep sedation/general anesthesia) during dental procedu…
HPV-Related Oral Lesions
Given the need to improve patient knowledge about HPV-related oral lesions, awareness of HPV infection prevention measures, and compliance with vaccination, as well as patient demand for free and easy access to well-tailored and time-saving health information, the present cross-sectional study examined the accuracy of relevant YouTube videos and their suitability for mass-reach health communication and HPV vaccination promotion. A video search wa…
Microbial Air Contamination in a Dental Setting Environment and Ultrasonic Scaling in Periodontally Healthy Subjects
The risk of microbial air contamination in a dental setting, especially during aerosol-generating dental procedures (AGDPs), has long been recognized, becoming even more relevant during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, individual pathogens were rarely studied, and microbial loads were measured heterogeneously, often using low-sensitivity methods. Therefore, the present study aimed to assess microbial air contamination in the dental environment, id…
A Cross-Sectional Study on Cognitive Vulnerability Patterns in Dental Anxiety
Dental anxiety is a crucial problem for dentistry because it may represent a significant risk to oral health. Within the framework of the Cognitive Vulnerability Model (CVM), which sheds light on the cognitive vulnerability patterns that may cause dental anxiety, this study aimed to assess the psychometric characteristics of the Italian version of the Dental Fear Maintenance Questionnaire (DFMQ). The DFMQ is a 32-item questionnaire that assesses …
