Deep Learning Models for Detection of Periapical Radiolucent Lesions on Panoramic Radiographs: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Panoramic radiographs are used routinely to screen dental conditions and treatment patterns. Recently, numerous studies have suggested that deep learning (DL) models can be utilized for analysing panoramic radiographs. Objective This review aimed to evaluate the accuracy of DL models in detecting periapical radiolucent lesions (PRLs)

Alendronate (ALN) combined with Osteoprotegerin (OPG) significantly improves mechanical properties of long bone than the single use of ALN or OPG in the ovariectomized rats

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2011
Background Alendronate (ALN) is the most common form of bisphosphonates used for the treatment of osteoporosis. Osteoprotegerin (OPG) has also been shown to reduce osteoporotic changes in both humans and experimental animals after systemic administration.

Influence of Imaging Modality on the Detection of Periapical Lesions in Root‐Filled Teeth: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Apical periodontitis is a common finding in root‐filled teeth (RFT) and an important indicator of treatment outcomes. Its reported prevalence may vary depending on the imaging modality used for diagnosis. Objectives To estimate the prevalence of periapical lesions in RFT teeth and to assess the influence of imaging modality on these

Harnessing the Therapeutic Potential of Cell Secretomes and Extracellular Vesicles for Craniofacial Regenerative Applications

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
The scoping review summarizes the current preclinical and clinical evidence for the use of “cell‐free” therapies in craniofacial (periodontal, bone and soft‐tissue) regeneration. It also aims to highlight key challenges and strategies towards the clinical translation of these therapies.
