A large Swedish cohort study reveals that dental diseases and tooth loss are associated with increased risk of primary liver cancer, highlighting the importance of oral health in systemic disease prevention.
CaneStat, a recombinant hybrid protein, uniquely modulates enamel pellicle properties fostering increased resistance to early enamel erosion, as evidenced by biophysical and clinical assessments.
A cost consequence analysis demonstrated that guided periodontal infection control (GPIC) is less costly than conventional non-surgical therapy (CNST) while achieving similar periodontal health outcomes at six months.
This study examines how prenatal exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals like phthalates and bisphenol A correlates with hypomineralized second primary molars (HSPM) in children, revealing sex-specific effects and emphasizing the impact
This study reveals that six months of non-surgical periodontal therapy significantly modulates host and microbial extracellular vesicles in saliva, highlighting their potential as non-invasive biomarkers for monitoring periodontitis treatme
This study compared 11 AI platforms, including large language models and retrieval-augmented systems, for diagnosing and managing periodontal diseases using clinical vignettes rated by expert periodontists.
This article reviews a novel digitally guided protocol combining the socket-shield technique and immediate implant placement in the esthetic zone, highlighting a 5-year successful clinical outcome and its implications for improving implant
This multicenter study evaluates the 2-year clinical success, survival, and patient-reported outcomes of 3D-printed complete dentures, demonstrating high durability and stable oral quality of life in edentulous patients.
A 10-year prospective cohort study demonstrates high implant survival and clinical stability following surgical peri-implantitis treatment combining DBBMC, enamel matrix derivative, doxycycline, and tailored supportive therapy.
Analysis of fluoride discussions on X highlights strong negative sentiment intertwined with political distrust, underscoring the need for nuanced patient communication about fluoride’s safety and benefits in a polarized environment.
A comprehensive assessment of the teaching practices regarding repair and replacement of defective composite restorations in Canadian dental schools highlights the move towards minimally invasive dentistry and calls for harmonization of edu
This RCT assesses clinical, radiographic, histological, and patient-reported outcomes of soft-tissue augmentation with connective tissue grafts and volume-stable collagen matrices during implant placement in the aesthetic zone.
This study reveals that successful peri-implantitis surgical therapy is associated with distinct microbial network patterns, specifically increased connectivity and centrality of commensal bacteria, informing future microbiome-targeted appr
This study evaluates outcomes of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) treatments in 222 patients, highlighting the superiority of surgical interventions over conservative therapy, especially in osteoporosis-associated cases.
A 36-month clinical trial using optical coherence tomography (OCT) reveals superior performance of Scotchbond™ Universal Adhesive in selective enamel-etch mode for restoring cervical lesions, with lower bond failure and adhesive defects com
