Oral Colonization of Staphylococcus Species in a Peritoneal Dialysis Population: A Possible Reservoir for PD‐Related Infections?

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Peritoneal dialysis‐related infections are important morbidity/mortality causes, being staphylococci the most prevalent agents. Since Staphylococcus aureus nasopharynx carriage is a known risk factor for PD infections and the oral cavity is a starting point for systemic diseases development, we aimed at comparing the oral staphylococci colonization ...

The Light Bite: Red‐Nosed Cuxiu (Chiropotes albinasus, Primates) Exploit Differential Penetrability of Hard Fruit Husks When Selecting Dental Puncture Sites

Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 6, November 2025.
Red‐nosed cuxiu are specialists in unripe seeds of hard‐husked fruits, which they access with massive jaw muscles and enlarged canines. But this costs energy and risks tooth breakage. The monkeys reduce both by biting at the softest spots on the fruit surface.

Effects of Dental Occlusion on Body Sway, Upper Body Muscle Activity and Shooting Performance in Pistol Shooters

Applied Bionics and Biomechanics, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Occlusal splints, to some extent, have been related to reduced body sway in a static position and increased muscle activity in the upper limbs. However, how dental occlusion status affects sports performance remains unclear. Here, we investigated whether occlusal splints that reposition the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) influenced body posture, muscle ...

Antifungal Activity, Cytocompatibility, and Wound Healing Potential of Novel Mucoadhesive Formulations for Oral Drug Delivery

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part A, Volume 113, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Conventional treatments for oral candidiasis often fail due to the complexities of the oral environment and the increasing antifungal drug resistance. Therefore, there is a growing demand for new therapies that optimize drug bioavailability, allowing for lower therapeutic doses while enhancing cytocompatibility, maintaining antifungal, anti ...

Manufacturing Order Matters? Exploring the Impact of Heat Treatment and Machining Sequences on the NiTi Instruments Properties

Australian Endodontic Journal, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 390-397, August 2025.
ABSTRACT This study assessed how manufacturing sequence affects the metallurgical and mechanical properties of two nickel‐titanium instruments: Procodile Q (heat‐treated before machining) and Procodile +HT (heat‐treated after machining). Both instruments (n = 74 each, size 25/0.06) were analysed for design, NiTi composition, phase transformation ...
