  1. Plan: a new non-scientist audience, from the following list:

Camp Counselors who will be responsible for students 

  1. Write: a summary of the article for the planned audience.

Main idea

  • Basically comparing two different tools (MTA & Biodentine VS. ER: YAG)  that are  used to make root end filling sticky. 
  • Concluded that there’s not that much difference between the two  
    • Basically said : “Yk what it never was? It was never that serious” 


Main points

  • For this Experiment they used different types of teeth from different places from the mouth. 
  • Later they made holes on the tooth’s, separated them into 4 groups and put the different teeth filling material.
  • They kept them in a room that was humid for 21 days and recorded changes on the groups.

How it may relate to what they should know or may care about

  • We should also have more knowledge of this because if we are more aware of these things we can make better judgments and know what choices we have.
  • Then we can see what is going to benefit us more when it comes to our dental care.
