Community‐Based Postdoctoral Dentistry Program in Special Care Dentistry: Development and Implementation

Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction There is a growing, national need for properly trained dentists to provide special care dentistry to a transitioning, aging, and medically complex population. This study describes the implementation and initial impact of a novel academic‐community intervention designed to rapidly address this critical gap in provider training and ...

Effects of intraoral aging of arch-wires on frictional forces: An ex vivo study

Journal of Orthodontic Science, 2016
Introduction: Archwires act as gears to move teeth with light, continuous forces. However, the intraoral use of orthodontic archwires is liable to surface deposits which alter the mechanical properties of archwires, causing an increase in the friction ...

Conceptual Learning in Orthodontics: A Systematic Literature Review of Its Implementation and Impact on Clinical Decision‐Making

Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Orthodontic education has traditionally relied on didactic instruction and rule‐based teaching approaches. Increasing emphasis on clinical reasoning and evidence‐based treatment planning has led to the integration of conceptual learning strategies—approaches that emphasize understanding relationships between clinical concepts and ...

Gingival inflammation and plaque accumulation affect therapeutic outcomes in patients with acne vulgaris

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background We hypothesized that acne vulgaris (AV) and gingivitis were associated through systemic inflammatory mechanisms, sharing common etiological factors. This study aimed to identify the association between AV and gingivitis and to assess changes in acne severity in relation to changes in the plaque index (PI).

Innovative 3D‐bioprinted microfibers in calcium phosphate cement platform with Nell‐1 to activate nerve‐bone axis for synergistic bone, vasculature, and nanofibrous nerve regeneration

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
A 3D‐bioprinted platform with stem cells activates “nerve‐bone” signaling by enabling the spatiotemporal delivery of Nell‐1. This activation enhances neurovascular and bone regeneration through the CYFIP1 cascade. In rat calvarial defects, the platform doubled bone regeneration and nerve repair and tripled vascular density, resulting in superior ...

Quantitative collagen and proteoglycan imaging reveal organic layering, gradients and regional texture in young mature dental cementum

VIEW, EarlyView.
Cementum, the mineralized tissue covering all mammalian tooth roots, helps maintain tooth stability, but its internal organization is still poorly understood. In this study, we combine quantitative histologial methods to map the regional distributions of collagen fibers and proteoglycan‐rich matrix layers in porcine cementum.

Oral microbiome and homeostatic regulation of periodontal health: From dysbiosis to precision intervention

VIEW, EarlyView.
Periodontal homeostasis is maintained by coordinated interactions between the oral microbiome and host. Dysbiosis disrupts this ecological balance and contributes to periodontal disease, whereas multi‐omics, artificial intelligence, and microbiome‐based interventions provide emerging opportunities for precision diagnosis, ecological restoration, and ...

What Outcomes Matter in Vital Pulp Therapy? Current Concepts and Challenges

Australian Dental Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vital pulp therapy (VPT) has re‐emerged as a practical and biologically sound alternative for managing deep caries and carious pulp exposures. Although its clinical use is now widespread, the outcomes used to judge the success of VPT remain inconsistent and often difficult to compare across studies.

Diacerein Disrupts Testicular Homeostasis: The Essential Role of Basal Cytokines in Maintaining Sertoli Cell Integrity and the Immune Microenvironment

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pro‐inflammatory cytokines, TNF and IL‐1B, are essential for testicular homeostasis. Diacerein, an anti‐inflammatory drug, inhibits these cytokines, impairing M2 macrophages and Leydig cells (LCs). However, its impact on Sertoli cells (SCs) and M1 (CD68) macrophages remains unknown.
