    Abstract COVID-19 is an emerging infectious disease caused by the widespread transmission of the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. Some of those infected become seriously ill. Others do not show any symptoms, but can still contribute to transmission of the virus. SARS-CoV-2 is excreted in the oral cavity and can be spread via aerosols. Aerosol generating procedures in dental health care can increase the risk of transmission of the virus. Due to the risk of infection of both dental healthcare workers and patients, additional infection control measures for all patients are strongly recommended when providing dental health care. Consideration should be given to which infection control measures are necessary when providing care in both the current situation and in the future.

    Abstract Objective: Transmission of SARS-CoV-2 during oral health care is potentially increased compared to regular social activities. Specific amendments to the Dutch national infection control guidelines were promulgated. This study aimed to map the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on providing oral health care during the first wave of the coronavirus pandemic in 2020 in the Netherlands.
    Methods: A cross-sectional web-based survey was sent via email to a representative sample of dental hygienists and dentists in the Netherlands.
    Results: Of the 1700 oral health care practitioners approached, 440 (25.9%) responded to the survey. Patient access to oral health care was severely restricted during the lockdown in the spring of 2020. A total of 1.6% of the oral health care practitioners had laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 during the study period, although this is likely to be an underrepresentation due to limited access to testing at that time. Over half of the participants perceived an increased risk of virus transmission during aerosol-generating treatments in their practices. A large majority (65.0%-87.1%) of the oral health care practitioners followed the COVID-19-specific amendments to the national infection control guidelines. Compared to the pre-pandemic period, additional personal protective equipment and protocols were applied. Factors related with compliance with the additional recommendations were age, employment status, and occupation.
    Conclusions: The pandemic had a profound impact on both the accessibility and practice of oral health care. This survey study found that most Dutch oral health care practitioners paid extra attention to hygiene and infection control. Also, a low number of COVID-19 infections detected amongst Dutch oral health care practitioners was reported in the Netherlands. These overall outcomes suggest that safe oral health care can be provided when following the current infection control recommendations.

    Abstract Objectives: Bacterial infection of the root canal system causes apical periodontitis. Less is known about the role of fungi in these infections. This study aimed to assess the fungal prevalence, abundance, and diversity of root canal infections, as well as the relation between fungi and bacteria present in different parts of the root canal.
    Materials and methods: Twenty-six teeth with primary apical periodontitis were extracted, split in apical and coronal root segments, and cryo-pulverized. Bacteriome profiles of 23 teeth were analyzed based on the V3-V4 hypervariable region of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene. Mycobiome profiles of six teeth were analyzed based on the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) 1 or ITS2 region. Samples were sequenced on the Illumina MiSeq platform.
    Results: A total of 338 bacterial operational taxonomic units (OTUs), 28 ITS1 OTUs, and 24 ITS2 OTUs were identified. Candida and Malassezia were the most frequently identified fungi. No differences could be found between the bacteriome and mycobiome profiles of the apical and coronal root segments. The bacteriome of fungi-positive root segments contained more Actinomyces, Bifidobacterium, four different Lactobacillus OTUs, Propionibacterium, and Streptococcus. A Spearman correlation matrix between bacteriomes and mycobiomes identified no correlations, but separate clusters could be observed.
    Conclusions: A considerable proportion of the root canal infections contain fungi, although fungal diversity is limited. However, when fungi are present, the composition of the bacteriome is clearly different.
    Clinical relevance: Interaction between bacteria and fungi in root canal infections may complicate the infection and require alternative treatment strategies.

    Abstract Introduction: Previous research showed an antimicrobial effect of vanadium chloroperoxidase (VCPO) on in vitro Enterococcus faecalis biofilms. The current study aimed to optimize the use of this enzyme at the root canal pH using a modified VCPO (mVCPO) that was adapted to function at a higher pH and to explore the biocompatibility of mVCPO.
    Methods: The activity of the original and modified VCPO was assessed using the monochlorodimedone assay. For antimicrobial assessment, 48-hour biofilms of E. faecalis OS-16 were incubated 5 or 30 minutes with mVCPO, bromide, and hydrogen peroxide, and colony-forming units were determined. A metabolic activity assay was used to evaluate the cytotoxic effect of mVCPO on oral fibroblasts.
    Results: Reaction products generated by mVCPO at a root canal pH of 7.7 significantly inactivated the biofilm after 5 minutes and even more after 30 minutes (Mann-Whitney U test, P < .05). The mVCPO reaction products showed less cytotoxic effects than control solutions and 0.5% sodium hypochlorite (Kruskal-Wallis test, P < .05).
    Conclusions: The incubation of mVCPO in the presence of its substrates with in vitro E. faecalis biofilms showed a significant antimicrobial effect at the root canal pH. Also, cytotoxicity tests showed preliminary biocompatibility. Therefore, an interappointment dressing containing mVCPO could aid in improving current endodontic treatment through continuous and local generation of antimicrobials.

    Abstract Introduction: The aim of this study was to explore the antimicrobial effect of vanadium chloroperoxidase (VCPO) reaction products on Enterococcus faecalis biofilms of 4 different strains.
    Methods: Twenty-four-hour biofilms of E. faecalis strains V583, ER5/1, E2, and OS-16 were incubated in mixtures with VCPO, halide (either bromide or chloride), and hydrogen peroxide. The antibacterial efficacy was assessed by colony-forming unit counts.
    Results: The VCPO reaction products had a similar efficacy in reducing the viability of the 4 strains of E. faecalis (94%; range, 87%-100%). Bromide as the halogen of choice was more effective on E. faecalis strains E2 and OS-16, as compared with chloride (Mann-Whitney U test; P < .05). Despite different quantities of produced biofilms by the 4 strains, VCPO treatment was similarly effective toward all strains (Kruskal-Wallis test; P < .05).
    Conclusions: VCPO treatment results in an antimicrobial effect toward in vitro E. faecalis biofilms and might provide an addition to current endodontic treatment, possibly as an antimicrobial dressing.
