A comparative evaluation of effect on water sorption and solubility of a temporary soft denture liner material when stored either in distilled water, 5.25% sodium hypochlorite or artificial saliva: An in vitro study

The Journal of Indian Prosthodontic Society, 2016
Introduction: Soft denture liners have a key role in modern removable prosthodontics since they restore health to inflamed and abused mucosa by redistribution of forces transmitted to the edentulous ridges. The most common problems encountered using soft

A dendrimer enhanced CRISPR/Cas12a performance for the evaluation of acidogenic capacity in cariogenic bacteria

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
A CRISPR/Cas12a‐powered dendritic DNA nanostructure is assembled to create confined enzymatic microdomains, enabling ultrasensitive detection. Integrated into a paper‐based origami biosensor, it allows equipment‐free on‐site quantification of acidogenic pathogens for the early diagnosis of dental caries.

Home‐visiting hospice volunteers are not professionals, nor are they strangers or intimates. Hospice volunteers will not typically face moral dilemmas, nor be called upon to make dramatic decisions ...

Efficacy of Natural Artificial Saliva and Natural Saliva Stimulant in Xerostomia: A Review

European Journal of Theoretical and Applied Sciences
Xerostomia, characterized by reduced salivary flow, leads to significant health issues that compromise oral health-related quality of life (OHRQOL). Current therapeutic approaches for xerostomia include artificial saliva and saliva stimulants, which aim to restore moisture and lubrication to oral surfaces. Natural products have been utilized in medical

The Alignment Risks of AI Overconfidence about Consciousness

Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many contemporary AI systems (as of May 2025) have expressed extreme confidence in current and near‐future AI lacking consciousness and moral patiency. This article argues that artificially reinforcing such confidence, even if pragmatically useful, poses a novel alignment risk: as coherence‐seeking AIs become more epistemically principled ...

Diversity and random forest models of oral microbiomes in periodontal health using publicly available data

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Evidence on the 16S metabarcoding of supragingival, subgingival, and salivary microbiomes in periodontal health remains limited. We aimed to analyze the diversity and potential of machine‐learning models of supragingival, subgingival, and salivary microbiomes in periodontal health. Methods A total of 848 samples (supragingival = 210;
