Comfort and Usability of Digital Versus Conventional Custom‐Fit Mouthguards: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Dental Traumatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives The use of mouthguards protects teeth and the supporting tissues against impacts. Digital impressions and 3D‐printed models can reduce manufacturing steps and minimize discomfort. This study evaluated the fit, comfort, and usability of custom‐made mouthguards, obtained by conventional and digital workflow, in amateur ...

Association of Maxillofacial Fractures With Demographic and Dental Factors: The Roles of Edentulism, Posterior Occlusion, Canines, and Lower Third Molar

Dental Traumatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Aim This retrospective, two‐center study aims to improve understanding of fracture pathogenesis in maxillofacial trauma by examining variations related to sex, age, dental status, posterior occlusion, and the presence of lower third molars (LTM) and lower canines.

Finite Element Analysis of Dentoalveolar Stress in Combat Sports Using Hybrid and Conventional Mouthguards

Dental Traumatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim This study aimed to contribute to the development of modern mouthguards by evaluating the stresses generated by hook and uppercut punches applied during combat sports on dentoalveolar structures and mouthguards, the protective effectiveness of different mouthguard designs, and the resulting deformations using three‐dimensional finite ...

Streptococcus equi subsp. equi infection causing temporomandibular septic arthritis treated by mandibular condylectomy in a horse

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary A 26‐year‐old pony mare was referred for weight loss, dysphagia, lethargy and fever. Clinical examination revealed left temporal swelling, masseter muscle atrophy and malocclusion. Computed tomography examination showed severe temporomandibular joint (TMJ) alteration, extensive osteolysis of the mandibular condyle and temporal bone and ...

Multiple External Invasive Root Resorption and Calcification in Systemic Sclerosis—Case Report

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim There are few reports in the literature of multiple external invasive root resorption (EIRR) lesions in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc), and an association between root resorption and SSc is not well established. We report the only case that comprehensively illustrates—with the combination of histopathology, cone beam computed ...

Postcranial anatomy of the Miocene hippopotamoids of Toros‐Menalla, Chad

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We establish a framework for the identification of postcranial remains in hippopotamoids by describing and comparing for the first time two late Miocene hippopotamoids from Toros‐Menalla, Chad (Hexaprotodon garyam, an early hippopotamid, and Libycosaurus bahri, the last African anthracothere) with the common hippopotamus.

Virtual brain endocasts of the palaeanodont Metacheiromys marshi and the neurosensory evolution of early Pholidotamorpha

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We describe the endocranial anatomy of Metacheiromys marshi. Decrease in olfaction and eye movement control occurred through time in Pholidotamorpha and is likely linked to fossorial adaptations. The development of the orbital gyrus might be related to the evolution of myrmecophagy and the emergence of a protrusile tongue in early Pholidotamorpha ...

Anatomical description of the jaw muscles and theoretical bite force assessment in South American opossums using manual and digital dissection methods

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Manual and virtual dissections were employed to examine the masticatory muscle architecture and bite force of three South American marsupials. The organisation of the muscles differed between species, with predicted bite forces exceeding previous estimates.
