Perceived Educational Value of a Self‐Developed 3D‐Printed Pediatric Dentistry Simulator
ABSTRACT Purpose To design and assess a 3D‐printed pediatric dentistry simulator and to evaluate its perceived educational value and realism through student and expert feedback. Methods A maxillary simulator that is mountable on phantom heads was developed and produced by desktop stereolithography with single‐use inserts, enabling proximal caries ...

ABSTRACT Purpose/Objectives To compare the effectiveness of MR simulation and 3D‐printed models in training undergraduate students in wisdom tooth removal, and to assess students’ perceptions of the MR simulator. Methods Students trained first on either the MR simulator or 3D‐printed plastic models and then repeated the training using the other method ...

ABSTRACT Caves are extreme environments that impose stringent selective pressures on organisms. Consequently, many cave dwellers show extreme adaptations such as the loss of eyes, depigmentation, and a low resting metabolic rate. Yet, how the initial stages of adaptation to these extreme environments take place remains poorly understood.

Abstract Background Peri‐implantitis is a destructive disease affecting the tissues surrounding dental implants. Biomaterials may be applied during surgical treatment to reconstruct bony defects and support soft tissue healing. However, current evidence is unclear if these treatments increase the likelihood of peri‐implantitis resolution.

Abstract Background This study aimed to perform a prediction model validation for furcation involvement (FI) risk in molars receiving a new fixed prosthesis (FP) using a unique cohort assessed at three time points. Methods Following the Oral Health Statistical (OHStat) reporting guidelines, this cohort study examined 181 patients (203 molars) from 2018–

Dasatinib and quercetin prevent alveolar bone loss in aged mice
Abstract Background Recent findings have associated alveolar bone loss (ABL) with the presence of senescent cells. Aging and the accumulation of senescent cells are associated with a pro‐inflammatory environment which may exacerbate tissue damage.

Abstract Background Periodontal diseases are associated with dysbiotic oral microbial communities, but clinically applicable measures that reflect microbial burden across disease severity and progression remain limited. This study aimed to assess the oral microbial burden of periodontal diseases by evaluating salivary and subgingival lipopolysaccharide
