Change in masticatory ability with the implant restoration of second molars

open access: yesThe Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 2014
Controversy exists as to whether missing second molars should be replaced to restore masticatory ability.The purpose of this study was to analyze the alteration in masticatory ability associated with the implant restoration of the second molar; the subjective effect of implant treatment on the participant was also assessed.Twenty-one individuals (13 ...

Engineered Tissue Models to Decode Host–Microbiota Interactions

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Host–Microbiota interactions in the human body. Created in BioRender. Ghezzi, C. (2025) https://BioRender.com/ihivskg. Abstract A mutualistic co‐evolution exists between the host and its associated microbiota in the human body. Bacteria establish ecological niches in various tissues of the body, locally influencing their physiology and functions, but ...

An Off‐the‐Shelf Artificial Blood Clot Hydrogel Neutralizing Multiple Proinflammatory Mediators for Pro‐Regenerative Periodontitis Treatment

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
CCS‐RSF@PRP hydrogel is engineered to structurally and functionally mimic the blood clot by integrating PPR, CCS, and RSF nanofibers through in situ activation of PRP. In a rat periodontitis model, CCS‐RSF@PRP hydrogel effectively promotes periodontal tissue repair, attributing to neutralizing the multiple proinflammatory mediators, thus rebuilding a ...

The Foundation for Developing an Exoskeleton for the Rehabilitation of Temporomandibular Disorders [PDF]

open access: yes2025 IEEE International Conference on Simulation, Modeling, and Programming for Autonomous Robots (SIMPAR), Palermo, Italy, 2025, https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10979121
Temporomandibular disorders affect a significant portion of the population, often causing pain and restricted jaw movement. Physiotherapy with active jaw exoskeletons seems to be a promising treatment approach. However, there has been limited progress in this area, with only a few studies published.
