Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy for Feeding and Swallowing in Children From Four to 12 Years: What Does the Evidence Show? A Systematic Review

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
This systematic review evaluated the effectiveness of orofacial myofunctional therapy (OMT) for improving feeding and swallowing outcomes in children aged 4–12 years. Searches of four databases identified 17 studies, all reporting positive feeding and/or swallowing outcomes, including improved eating and swallowing skills, orofacial muscle function and

Implementing 3D‐printed indexing devices and contemporary scanning techniques for complete‐arch implant‐supported rehabilitations: A clinical case report

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract A sixty‐eight‐year‐old male presented to the dental clinic seeking a complete mouth rehabilitation. He exhibited generalized dental caries, dental staining, cervical lesions, fremitus, and anterior wear. After declining tooth‐retaining options, he elected full‐mouth extractions with immediately loaded implant‐supported prostheses.

3D Analysis of Mandibular and Glenoid Fossa Responses to Bone‐Anchored Maxillary Protraction in Patients With UCLP

Orthodontics &Craniofacial Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Bone‐anchored maxillary protraction (BAMP) has been increasingly used to correct midface deficiency and Class III malocclusion in patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP). However, its three‐dimensional (3D) effects on the mandible remain insufficiently explored.

Biomechanical Assessment of Root Torque in Clear Aligners: Impact of Trimline Design, Engagers, and Pressure Points With Palatal Compensation Movement

Orthodontics &Craniofacial Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Root torque control is essential for guiding the proper movement of anterior teeth, primarily to prevent periodontal complications. This movement, in clear aligner therapy (CAT), requires precise force application to minimize unintended displacements.
