How clinical exposure improves dental students' understanding of oral and maxillofacial surgery: A cross‐sectional study

Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To assess dental students' understanding of oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS) practice areas and examine changes in referral preferences across their educational progression in Israel. Methods A cross‐sectional survey was conducted among 349 dental students from two Israeli universities (46.5% response rate).

Benefits and challenges of the integration of haptics‐enhanced virtual reality training within dental curricula

Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Haptics‐enhanced virtual reality (VR‐haptic) simulation in dental education has evolved considerably during the past decade, representing a promising resource of simulation‐based training opportunities to support conventional practice.

Model-Dependent Prosthesis Control with Interaction Force Estimation [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Current prosthesis control methods are primarily model-independent - lacking formal guarantees of stability, relying largely on heuristic tuning parameters for good performance, and neglecting use of the natural dynamics of the system. Model-dependence for prosthesis controllers is difficult to achieve due to the unknown human dynamics.

Effect of veneering material on the deformation suffered by implant-supported fixed prosthesis framework

Journal of Applied Oral Science, 2014
Knowing how stresses are dissipated on the fixed implant-supported complex allows adequate treatment planning and better choice of the materials used for prosthesis fabrication.

Design, Implementation and Evaluation of a Variable Stiffness Transradial Hand Prosthesis [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
We present the design, implementation, and experimental evaluation of a low-cost, customizable, easy-to-use transradial hand prosthesis capable of adapting its compliance. Variable stiffness actuation (VSA) of the prosthesis is based on antagonistically arranged tendons coupled to nonlinear springs driven through a Bowden cable-based power transmission.

Gingival phenotype classification by visual and probe visibility assessments: Relationship with thickness and probe design

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study investigated the agreement among dentists in classifying gingival phenotype (GP) through periodontal probe visibility (PPV) assessment with various probe types and the visual method. Additionally, the relationship between GP classifications and gingival thickness (GT) was evaluated.

Histological and immunohistochemical soft‐tissue response to cylindrical and concave abutments: Multicenter randomized clinical trial

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study aimed to analyze the influence of concave and cylindrical abutments on peri‐implant soft tissue. Dimensions, collagen fiber orientation, and immunohistochemical data were assessed. Methods A multicenter, split‐mouth, double‐blind randomized clinical trial was conducted.
