Virtual articulation using sequential mandibular intraoral scans and computational functional rotation reference determination—Proof‐of‐concept

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Virtual articulators require accurate spatial orientation of digital casts for meaningful occlusal analysis during prosthesis design. Current methods for establishing this orientation rely on facial scanning, cone‐beam computed tomography, electronic jaw tracking, or arbitrary population–based values. This proof‐of‐concept technique presents a

Soft‐Tissue Integration of Dental Implants: Formation, Maintenance, and Relevance for Peri‐Implant Health

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Sixty years after the introduction of dental implants, it is clear that soft‐tissue integration is as essential as osseointegration. This review outlines how peri‐implant soft tissues develop, protect, and sometimes fail, revealing key knowledge gaps and new opportunities to improve long‐term implant stability.

Oral Health, Periodontitis, and Respiratory Diseases: Biological Pathways

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This narrative review aims to provide a comprehensive update on the potential mechanisms by which poor oral health and periodontitis impact lung health, focusing on pneumonia, COPD, and asthma. ABSTRACT Poor oral hygiene and periodontitis influence lung diseases such as pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), COVID‐19, and asthma.
