Coronavirus COVID-19 impacts to dentistry and potential salivary diagnosis

TL;DR: There is a need to increase investigations to the detection of COVID-19 in oral fluids and its impact on the transmission of this virus, which is crucial to improve effective strategies for prevention, especially for dentists and healthcare professionals that perform aerosol-generating procedures.
Journal ArticleDOI

New Insights into the Composition and Functions of the Acquired Enamel Pellicle

TL;DR: This review intends to update readers about the latest discoveries related to the formation, ultrastructure, composition, and functions of the AEP, as well as the future of pellicle research, with particular emphasis on the emerging role of proteomic and microscopy techniques in oral diagnosis and therapeutics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Salivary proteome and its genetic polymorphisms.

TL;DR: To facilitate the use of modern state‐of‐the‐art proteomics and the development of nanotechnology‐based analytical approaches in the field of diagnostics, the salient features of the major salivary protein families are reviewed at the molecular level.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of protein components in in vivo human acquired enamel pellicle using LC-ESI-MS/MS.

TL;DR: The acquired enamel pellicle is a thin protein film forming upon exposure of tooth enamel surfaces to saliva and the structural analysis of this integument relies on efficient pellicles harvesting and protein identification procedures.
