Can we improve on the toothpaste we use to maintain clean teeth, preventing medical issues that spiral from poor dental health?

A new American Dental Association (ADA) clinical practice guideline suggests conservative methods to treat tooth decay in primary and permanent teeth could lead to better outcomes when used with common restorative materials like fillings or caps.

A study has successfully demonstrated the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in detecting gum inflammation, also known as gingivitis, from intraoral photographs.

Collaborating researchers have discovered that a bacterial species called Selenomonas sputigena (S. sputigena) can have a major role in causing tooth decay.
