Methodological evaluation of gingival crevicular fluid volume and neutrophil elastase levels: sequential sampling, length of sampling time and two different sampling methods
(2019)
Objectives: The mechanisms underlying the formation and composition of gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) and its flow into and from periodontal pockets are not understood very well. The aim of this study was to evaluate the ...

Evaluation of patients' perception of gingival recession, its impact on oral health-related quality of life, and acceptance of treatment plan
(2020)
Objective: Gingival recessions (GR) may cause aesthetic and hypersensitivity complaints which might affect oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL). The aim of this study was to evaluate the patients' awareness of their ...
In Vitro Evaluation of Direct and Indirect Effects of Sonic and Ultrasonic Instrumentations on the Shear Bond Strength of Orthodontic Brackets
(2020)
Objective: Sonic and ultrasonic instrumentations generate vibrations that may influence debonding characteristics. The objective of this in vitro study was to assess the direct and indirect effects of sonic and ultrasonic ...
Efficiency of piezosurgery technique in miniscrew supported en-masse retraction: a single-centre, randomized controlled trial
(2017)
Piezoelectric surgery is a newly introduced technique for rapid tooth movement. However, the efficiency of this technique has not been investigated on en-masse retraction cases yet.
To investigate the efficiency of ...
Osseous outgrowth on the buccal maxilla associated with piezosurgery-assisted en-masse retraction: A case series
(2018)
Piezoelectric surgery is a novel surgical approach used in orthodontic treatment for rapid tooth movement. This paper presents a case series wherein osseous outgrowths were observed in response to piezosurgery-assisted ...
