A study of the forces generated during equine cheek tooth extraction

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Significant force is often applied when elevating equine teeth from the alveolus during extraction. No previous studies have investigated these forces. Objectives To develop a method to allow measurement of elevation forces (EF) applied during extraction, and to record forces during extraction of cheek teeth in both cadaver ...

Clinical periodontal diagnosis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Periodontal diseases include pathological conditions elicited by the presence of bacterial biofilms leading to a host response. In the diagnostic process, clinical signs such as bleeding on probing, development of periodontal pockets and gingival recessions, furcation involvement and presence of radiographic bone loss should be assessed prior ...

Change in tooth mobility following non‐surgical periodontal therapy: A retrospective cohort study of clinical outcomes

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background To evaluate the change in clinical tooth mobility following scaling and root planing (SRP) and to identify baseline factors predictive of the 12‐month outcome. Methods This retrospective cohort study utilized de‐identified electronic health records from the BigMouth Dental Data Repository. The final cohort consisted of 152 patients,

Clinical Efficacy of Occlusal Splints in Myogenous Temporomandibular Disorders: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Journal of Indian Academy of Oral Medicine and Radiology
Background: Myogenous temporomandibular disorders (M-TMDs) are common musculoskeletal conditions often presenting with pain and limited jaw mobility. Despite their frequent prescription, the comparative effectiveness of occlusal splints remains uncertain

Unsupervised phenotyping of the periodontal architecture through high‐dimensional clustering of electronic health records: A multicenter study

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background To identify novel periodontal phenotypes using unsupervised machine learning on a large‐scale, multicenter cohort, specifically characterizing disease patterns based on the “periodontal architecture” of localized structural failures (tooth mobility and molar furcation defects) rather than global severity averages alone. Methods This
