Mechanical plaque removal in step‐1 of care
Abstract Maintaining a regular oral hygiene routine is essential for taking care of our mouths, ensuring healthy teeth, and achieving fresh breath. Patient education on oral hygiene is an important component of their overall treatment. Firstly, patients should be informed about the direct connection between bacteria in dental plaque and oral diseases ...

Effect of Lower Third Molar Status on Fracture of Mandibular Angle and Condyle
Background:To determine the correlation between impacted M3 and mandibular angle and condylar fractures considering the hypothesis that the presence of M3s increases the risk of mandibular angle and simultaneously decreases the risk of condylar fracture ...

Background CAD/CAM zirconia barriers represent an advanced option for guided bone regeneration (GBR) in three‐dimensional defects, integrating mechanical stability, biocompatibility, and digital precision. The objectives of this case series were to evaluate, clinically, histologically, and three‐dimensionally, the use of customized zirconia barriers ...

Abstract Background Surface decontamination is integral to peri‐implantitis treatment. However, abrasive mechanical methods can cause implant surface degradation with possible adverse biological effects. No human studies have examined whether these treatments cause titanium release or impair regenerative outcomes.

A Retrospective Study of Two Mandibulectomy Approaches for T3‐Stage Lower Gingival Carcinoma
ABSTRACT Objective This study retrospectively analyzes two mandibular resection techniques for T3‐stage lower gingival carcinoma, aiming to compare their impact on patient prognosis. Methods Retrospective cohort study. Data from 78 cases of T3‐stage lower gingival carcinoma involving the mandible were reviewed in our Department of Head and Neck Surgery.

Our current understanding of the origins of Homo sapiens is limited, in part, by the fragmented fossil record from Late Pleistocene and early Holocene Africa. Here, we re‐examine the Kabua 1 cranium, an enigmatic and little‐studied Kenyan fossil discovered in the 1950s. We compare virtual reconstructions created previously by our team with a wide range

Abstract Indirect fractures from gunshot wounds can occur when a projectile impacts soft tissue without making direct contact with the bone. Existing biomechanical and clinical research suggests that indirect fractures result in lower levels of comminution, and that resultant fracture patterns can resemble those seen in blunt force trauma (e.g., wedge ...

ABSTRACT This study evaluated the effects of kinematics (reciprocating vs. continuous rotation) and rotational speed (350 vs. 1200 rpm) on filling removal, canal transportation, and apical extrusion during retreatment of curved root canals. Vertucci type II mesial roots of mandibular molars were prepared, filled, and scanned by micro‐computed ...

ABSTRACT Pinctada margaritifera (black‐lipped pearl oyster) artefacts are ubiquitous in the archaeological record throughout the Pacific and particularly in Polynesia. Despite efforts towards the development of typologies, the lack of microwear and use‐wear studies has prevented the development of technological approaches. We used 20 pearl shell valves
