Evaluation of dental manifestations in X-linked hypophosphatemia using orthopantomography.
BackgroundX-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is the most common inherited form of rickets. The presence of sequence variations in the phosphate regulating endopeptidase homolog X-linked (PHEX) gene is associated with increased production of fibroblast ...

Kdf1 Regulates Molar Cusp Morphogenesis via the PI3K/AKT/mTOR Signalling Axis
Epithelial Kdf1 knockout disrupts molar cusp morphogenesis by promoting inner enamel epithelium proliferation and invagination via PI3K/AKT/mTOR signalling. ABSTRACT Keratinocyte differentiation factor 1 (Kdf1) reportedly plays a significant role in enamel formation.

Physiological stress during early life can impede development, and signals of this are preserved in nonremodelling tissues such as dental enamel. This article describes nonspecific stress markers in the teeth of European (n = 30) and Southern Chinese (n = 15) adult migrants to New Zealand, and colony‐born children (n = 10) interred in four historic ...

The pathogenic role of PHEX isn't fully determined, and there is no radical cure for X‐linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLHR). This study makes the first attempt to perform gene therapy using a minicircle DNA (MC‐DNA) vector expressing a fragment of FGF23 (amino acids 180‐251) in Phex‐T1349C mice and suggests MC‐DNA as a promisingly safe and effective ...

ABSTRACT Fusion is a rare developmental anomaly characterized by the union of two adjacent tooth germs during the morphodifferentiation stage of tooth formation, resulting in a single enlarged tooth. Its prevalence ranges from 0.4% to 0.9% in the primary dentition and approximately 0.2% in the permanent dentition.

ISOLATED DENTINOGENESIS IMPERFECTA AND IN ASSOCIATION WITH OSTEOGENESIS IMPERFECTA – A LITERATURE REVIEW [PDF]
Dental development is part of the craniofacial organogenesis, starting from the pluripotent cephalic neural crest cells, continuing with their movement towards the first pharyngeal arch and leading to the development of many elements of the ...

ABSTRACT Conventional MRI is limited in imaging tissues with short T2 relaxation times, such as bone, ligaments, and cartilage, due to their rapid signal decay. This limitation has spurred the development of specialized MRI techniques designed specifically for short‐T2 tissue imaging.

ABSTRACT Objective The impact of orthodontic forces on pulp stone formation has been the focus of several studies. Given that orthodontic extractions typically involve the application of greater forces to the teeth, the aim of this study was to compare the extent of pulp stone formation in the molar teeth of patients undergoing orthodontic treatment ...
