3D‐Printed Models in Oral Surgery Simulation Training: A Scoping Review

Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Advancements in three‐dimensional (3D) printing have introduced innovative tools for medical and dental education. In dental surgery, 3D‐printed simulation models offer valuable presurgical training. This review explores the scope, study types, key findings, limitations, and future research needs to enhance their application in ...

Pedicled buccal fat pad flap for intraoral malignant defects: A series of 29 cases

Indian Journal of Plastic Surgery, 2009
A buccal fat pad (BFP) as a flap for reconstruction of defects in the oral cavity has been described for a variety of benign conditions. We describe the indications, advantages, and complications of the BFP flap and report our clinical experience with ...

Management of oroantral communication using buccal advanced flap

The Pan African Medical Journal, 2019
Oroantral communication (OAC) or fistula (OAF) is an open pathological communication between the oral cavity and maxillary sinus which mostly occurs as a result of extraction of upper molars and premolars, iatrogenic complications or from dental ...

Perceived Educational Value of a Self‐Developed 3D‐Printed Pediatric Dentistry Simulator

Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
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 ...

The influence of cavity design on the mechanical behavior of endo-crown restorations: an ex-vivo study

BMC Oral Health
Background Root canal-treated teeth often exhibit significant structural loss, necessitating effective and conservative restorative techniques. The present study aimed to assess the effect of cavity design on the fracture resistance of endo-crown ...

The nasal cavity microbiota of healthy adults [PDF]

, 2014
Background The microbiota of the nares has been widely studied. However, relatively few studies have investigated the microbiota of the nasal cavity posterior to the nares. This distinct environment has the potential to contain a distinct

Association between blenderized tube feeds and differential oropharynx, stomach, and stool microbiome signatures relative to conventional formula feeds in children fed via enteral tube: A cross‐sectional study

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Blenderized gastrostomy tube feeds are associated with reduced gastrointestinal symptoms. We hypothesize that patients receiving blenderized tube feeds, compared with standard formula, will have less gastric‐oropharyngeal microbial overlap, a possible biomarker of less gastroesophageal refluxate, and differences in beta diversity in

Transient gingival inflammation is associated with epithelial dysfunction and systemic immune activation beyond clinical improvement

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The oral cavity significantly influences systemic health. Gingivitis, an early reversible stage of periodontal disease, may trigger systemic immune changes by facilitating bacterial translocation. This study examined the immune responses elicited by experimental gingivitis and their systemic immune impact, specifically in relation ...

Electrolyzed saline as an alternative to chlorhexidine: Antimicrobial and biofilm volume outcomes in a 4‐day non‐brushing randomized controlled clinical trial

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The biofilm‐inhibitory effects of electrolyzed saline (EOS) vary widely due to differences in formulations and treatment methods. This study analyzed the impact of EOS on key oral microbial species and used serial 3D‐intraoral scans to evaluate its effects on de novo biofilm formation.
