Platelet-Rich Fibrin and Low-Level Laser Therapy on Rate of Orthodontic Tooth Movement During Canine Retraction - A Comparative Study

open access: yesIndian Journal of Dental Research
Background: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the effects of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) on orthodontic tooth movement (OTM), focussing on canine retraction and levels of inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1 beta ...

A New Model of Feeding Biomechanics Based on Tied‐Arch Principles

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This new biomechanical model explains the major stress and strain patterns generated through the cranium during biting. The model proposes that the cranium resolves bite‐induced reaction forces through arcs of compressive stress that span the cranial structure between biting teeth and both jaw joints.

Female‐Biased Sexual Size Dimorphism and Its Potential Causes in Hairy‐Winged Bats

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Based on the integration of molecular genetics, traditional and geometric morphology, and acoustic characteristics of hairy‐winged bats (a species that was historically misclassified into two species due to extreme craniodental divergence between the sexes) in multiple regions of China, we quantified the sexual size dimorphism (SSD) between males and ...

Effect of Endodontic Sealers on the Bond Strength of Glass Fibre Posts: A Systematic Review

open access: yesAustralian Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This systematic review evaluated the influence of resin‐based, eugenol‐based and bioceramic endodontic sealers on the bond strength of glass fibre posts cemented with resin cements. Searches were conducted in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Google Scholar and Embase, including in vitro studies using human or bovine teeth ...

Investigating relationships among strontium, barium, and seasonality in wild baboons

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Geochemical profiles of Australopithecus africanus and baboon teeth show fluctuating trace elements, possibly reflecting seasonal diets. Here we use laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometric measurements of calcium‐normalized strontium and barium ratios (Sr/Ca and Ba/Ca) and ion microprobe analyses of oxygen isotopes (δ18O ...

Morphometric and Paleobiological Insights Into Pleistocene Sicilian Wolf Populations

open access: yesActa Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Pleistocene wolves (Canis lupus) from Sicily represent one of the few known insular populations of this species from that time period. Despite their potential relevance for understanding carnivore adaptations in insular contexts, no dedicated study has previously investigated their morphology and evolutionary significance.

Inverted canine in the frontal process of maxilla: A case report

open access: yesActa Odontológica Colombiana, 2018
Background: The permanent canine tooth in the maxilla presents the highest rate of ectopic eruption, remaining bone-impacted in most cases. This is more common among women than among men.

Association of Transmucosal Emergence Geometry and Peri‐Implant Diseases Prevalence Around Bone‐ and Tissue‐Level Implants: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesClinical Oral Implants Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives This cross‐sectional study primarily aimed at investigating the association between the transmucosal emergence geometry and the prevalence of peri‐implant diseases in bone‐ and tissue‐level implants (BL/TL). As secondary objectives, the association of other implant‐, prosthesis‐, and patient‐related variables with crestal bone ...

Clinical Applicability of Artificial Intelligence–Driven Implant Planning and Surgical Guide Design in the Maxillary Esthetic Zone: A Registry‐Based Cohort Study

open access: yesClinical Oral Implants Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study evaluated the accuracy, time efficiency, and workflow consistency of artificial intelligence (AI)‐assisted versus human expert (HI) implant planning in the esthetic anterior maxilla. Material and Methods Thirty‐five single‐tooth anterior maxillary cases with paired cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and intraoral scans (
