Harnessing Artificial Intelligence to Predict Dental Crowding in Modern Orthodontic Practice: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dental crowding is fundamental to orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning, yet what constitutes “crowding” remains surprisingly heterogeneous. Space analysis quantifies tooth size–arch length discrepancy, irregularity indices characterize alignment displacement, and clinician‐assigned severity reflects broader diagnostic interpretation ...

Plant‐derived nanovesicles as potential drug delivery systems for topical use: Emerging applications in dermatology and cosmetology

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Plant‐derived nanovesicles (PDNVs) are naturally secreted by fruit, vegetables, seeds, leaves and other natural sources. Used as drug delivery systems, they can combine intrinsic therapeutic activity, enhanced skin permeation and cargo‐carrying capacity, suitable for dermatological and cosmetic applications including hydration, antioxidant/anti ...

Oral microbiome and homeostatic regulation of periodontal health: From dysbiosis to precision intervention

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Periodontal homeostasis is maintained by coordinated interactions between the oral microbiome and host. Dysbiosis disrupts this ecological balance and contributes to periodontal disease, whereas multi‐omics, artificial intelligence, and microbiome‐based interventions provide emerging opportunities for precision diagnosis, ecological restoration, and ...

Diffuse cranial vault hyperostosis associated with long‐term antiepileptic therapy: Autopsy findings and differential diagnostic considerations

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Diffuse cranial vault hyperostosis is an uncommon finding and may present a diagnostic challenge in clinical and forensic practice. We report the case of a 53‐year‐old woman with a long‐standing history of epilepsy treated with phenytoin and sodium valproate who collapsed at home suddenly and died despite resuscitative efforts.

Effects of Calcium Hydroxide Paste and Access Cavities on Fracture Strength of Mature and Simulated Immature Human Teeth: Ex Vivo

open access: yesAustralian Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim was to examine whether a Ca(OH)2 paste affects fracture strength of teeth. Sixty extracted maxillary central incisors were prepared to simulate immature teeth. Another 40 were used as mature teeth. The ten groups (n = 10) were: (1) immature control; (2) immature + access; (3) immature + access + 1 m Ca(OH)2; (4) immature + access + 12 ...

Localized Gingival Enlargement

open access: yesThe Journal of The Korean Dental Association, 2014
Localized gingival enlargement is a common finding and tends to be reactive hyperplasia. Gingival reactive lesions are usually asymptomatic and respond to conservative treatment. However, a small entity of localized gingival enlargement is distinct from non-neoplastic growth, including developmental and neoplastic lesions.

The Social Determination of Racial Inequities in Oral Health Among Indigenous Peoples

open access: yesCommunity Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To foster a critical analysis of the racial inequities affecting the oral health (OH) of Indigenous peoples in Brazil, framed by the social determination of the health‐disease‐care process (SDHP). Methods This critical literature review articulates the themes of colonisation, Indigenous peoples' oral health and racial inequities in ...

Stratified Randomized Controlled Trial of ∅3.3 mm Versus ∅4.1 mm Hydrophilic Titanium‐Zirconium Implants Supporting Posterior Mandibular Fixed Prostheses in Hyperglycaemic Subjects

open access: yesClinical Oral Implants Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To compare ⌀3.3 mm and ⌀4.1 mm hydrophilic titanium‐zirconium implants supporting fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) in mandibular distal‐extension situations among participants with varying degrees of hyperglycaemia. Materials and Methods Participants were stratified according to HbA1c (5.8%–< 7.0% vs.
