Non‐linear association between tooth loss and cardiovascular diseases among middle‐aged adults

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Although positive associations between fewer remaining teeth and an increased risk of various systemic diseases have been reported, the precise dose‐response relationship has not been fully clarified. This study aimed to evaluate the non‐linearity of the dose‐response association between the number of lost teeth and the risk of ...

Design and Development of Novel Airway Device for Transoral Respiratory Monitoring During Sedation

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This article describes iterative design factors and results of clinical testing for a novel medical device that promotes transoral respiratory gas exchange for patients during sedation. A minimally viable prototype was 3D printed from thermoplastic polyurethane and demonstrated high levels of oral retention, gas exchange, and satisfaction among ...

Phospho-tau 181 is enhanced in saliva and plasma of edentulous patients: a first sign of dementia?

Frontiers in Oral Health
ObjectivesThere is evidence that periodontitis can enhance the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The biomarkers beta-amyloid (40 and 42), total tau, and phospho-tau181 (pTau181) in cerebrospinal fluid help to diagnose AD.

Morphological Similarity Between Edo‐Period Wooden Dentures and Maxillae in Japan: A Three‐Dimensional Analysis Using Homologous Modeling

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wooden dentures represent a distinctive form of dental technology uniquely developed in Japan that is no longer in clinical use. Although Edo‐period (1603–1867) wooden dentures are presumed to have achieved sufficient precision, their morphological fit has not been quantitatively evaluated.
