Lateral cephalometric analysis of asymptomatic volunteers and symptomatic patients with and without bilateral temporomandibular joint disk displacement [PDF]

, 1998
Few studies of dentofacial and orthodontic structural relationships relative to temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction have been reported. We undertook this investigation to determine any correlation of orthodontic and dentofacial characteristics with

Prevalence and Mechanisms of Sustained Force Production in the Musculature of the Southern Alligator Lizard (Elgaria multicarinata)

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The southern alligator lizard (Elgaria multicarinata) exhibits prolonged mate‐holding behavior. This behavior maybe be underpinned by a phenomenon known as sustained force, observed in the jaw muscles of this species, in which the muscle fails to relax between subsequent contractions.

Research progress on masticatory function assessment tools and influencing factors in patients after mandibular reconstruction

Shanghai Jiaotong Daxue xuebao. Yixue ban
Mandibular reconstruction refers to the restoration of the continuity of the mandible through techniques such as autologous bone grafting, thereby restoring the patient's basic appearance, reconstructing the occlusal relationship, and restoring functions

From primary to secondary care level: Assessing patient retention of periodontal staging and grading information

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Accurate communication of periodontal stage and grade by general dentists in primary care is critical for patient understanding and engagement, yet patient retention and self‐reporting of this information upon referral to secondary care remains unclear.

TAM pathway proteins as novel salivary biomarkers for periodontitis

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The identification of molecular biomarkers that help clinicians in early diagnosis is a key focus of periodontal research. The major aim of this cross‐sectional observational study was to assess whether salivary TAM pathway protein levels have the potential to discriminate between periodontally healthy or gingivitis controls and ...
