Suprahyoid Muscle Activity and Fatigue During Tongue Elevation Compared With the Head Lift Exercise: A Surface EMG Study

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Tongue elevation elicited suprahyoid muscle activity comparable to the head lift exercise, despite a greater decline in median frequency over time. Tongue elevation may represent a practical alternative or complementary exercise for suprahyoid muscle training.

Association of Fried Frailty Phenotype With Occlusal Status, Health‐Related Quality of Life, and Nutritional Status Among Older Adults Living in Long‐Term Care

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Older adults with adequate occlusal status were less likely to be frail. Frailty was associated with poorer health‐related quality of life, while prefrailty was linked to better nutritional status and body composition among residents living in long‐term care.

Influence of nanohydroxyapatite mouthwash on the growth of Candida albicans biofilm on milled denture surfaces: An in vitro study

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose There is a need for effective solutions for the persistent prevalence of denture stomatitis (DS) in denture‐wearing populations. This study assessed the impact of nanohydroxyapatite (nanoHAP) nanoparticles on Candida albicans biofilm formation on milled polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) denture bases.

Effect of cleft palate type and manufacturing method on feeding plate adaptation: A volumetric micro‐computed tomography analysis

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Feeding plates for cleft palate patients have been used by clinicians for many years to temporarily close the oro‐nasal communication until definitive treatment with surgical techniques. The current in vitro study aimed to evaluate the adaptation of the feeding plates manufactured by two different techniques for three cleft types ...
