Objectives: In the past decade, many new adhesive systems labeled as universal were introduced. Their common characteristic is that they can be applied to hard dental tissues either in self-etch or etch-and-rinse mode, and they are also able to bond to various restorative materials. Moreover, universal adhesives are mostly one-step and user-friendly. Because numerous papers about their properties were published, the purpose of this review article is to critically discuss the available information about the properties of universal adhesives and their bonding to various materials. Conclusions: The simplification of the application procedure...

Introduction, aim: Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is defined as the collapse of the upper respiratory tract, complete or partial, leading to hypopnea to apnea.

As this sleep-related breathing disorder (SRBD) manifests itself differently in adults and in children, there is also a separate diagnosis of OSA occuring in childhood. For most children, we can see loud night snoring, mouth breathing, disturbed sleep continuity and its architecture, and therefore OSA has an impact not only on the physical but also on the child's mental health and development. Correct diagnosis, in the most precise...

Dental caries in early childhood is defined as the presence of any decayed, filled tooth surface or missed primary tooth due to caries of a child under 71 months of age. The treatment of dental caries in small children is complicated due to limited cooperation, morphological and biological differences of primary teeth and caries lesion progression. Presentation: The purpose of the treatment of dental caries in young children is to repair and limit further damage of dental hard tissue, protect the...
