Workflow to facilitate complete denture scanning with an intraoral scanner: A technique report

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Scanning a denture with an intraoral scanner is typically more challenging than scanning a dentate arch. This article describes a novel technique for digitally duplicating a complete denture. The workflow involves scanning an existing denture using an intraoral scanner with the addition of specific markers and subsequently constructing a ...

Soft Tissue Substitutes: Current Biomaterials and Indications at Teeth and Implant Sites

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This manuscript provides an updated overview of the current evidence on soft tissue graft substitutes for teeth and dental implants. When appropriately indicated, these biomaterials offer a reliable, less invasive alternative to autogenous grafts, effectively improving root coverage, keratinized mucosa width, and soft tissue thickness with reduced ...

Reviewing the benefits and clinical outcomes of oral fibroblasts over mesenchymal stem cells for repairing periodontal defects during or after orthodontic tooth movement

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Orthodontic therapy applies forces to teeth, causing an inflammatory reaction in the periodontal ligament. This is repaired by remodeling of the periodontium, allowing tooth displacement. Although orthodontic therapy is mostly initiated during childhood and adolescence, the number of adults seeking this treatment is increasing as our society's

Periodontal and orthodontic management of impacted canines

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract The maxillary and mandibular canines are described by many clinicians as the “cornerstone” of the arch. When in their optimal position, they play a critical role in providing a well‐balanced occlusal scheme that contributes toward functional as well as neuromuscular stability, harmony, esthetics, and dentofacial balance.

Guiding the AI revolution in periodontology and implant dentistry: Concepts, ethics, accountability, and a roadmap for sustainable adoption

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly gaining attention in the field of periodontology and implant dentistry. Currently developed models can support diagnosis, treatment planning, and maintenance monitoring. However, most of the available literature is based on retrospective and often single‐modality data sets.
