Dentofacial Characteristics in Patients With Epidermolysis Bullosa—A Cross‐Sectional Study

Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, Volume 12, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a rare genetic disease characterized by skin and mucosal fragility caused by pathogenic variants in structural protein genes. Malocclusions have been previously described in patients with EB, mainly in case reports, with no cohort studies characterizing dentofacial characteristics across all EB types ...

Segmented Intraoral Scanning With a Palatal Marker for Complete‐Arch Digital Implant Impressions: An In Vitro Comparative Study

Clinical Oral Implants Research, Volume 37, Issue 10, Page 1208-1216, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives To compare four complete‐arch implant impression workflows—segmented right/left IOS merged via a palatal marker (IOS‐LEGO‐Seg), continuous full‐arch IOS with a palatal marker (IOS‐LEGO‐Full), continuous full‐arch IOS without a palatal marker (IOS‐Full), and a conventional open‐tray PVS impression followed by cast fabrication and ...

Influence of Superimposition Strategies and Landmark Distribution on the Full‐Arch Trueness of Orthodontic Digital Models

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, Volume 38, Issue 8, Page 1586-1597, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the influence of superimposition protocols and landmark distribution on deviation outcomes in orthodontic full‐arch models. Materials and Methods Twenty plaster models were scanned using an intraoral and desktop scanner. Ten models were evaluated for landmark suitability and inter‐scanner coordinate agreement.

Deep Phenotyping and Molecular Elucidation of a New Syndrome: Ectodermal Dysplasia Caused by IRF6 Variants

Experimental Dermatology, Volume 35, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The diagnosis of an ectodermal dysplasia (ED) is often made by dermatologists. Some of the more than 50 distinct ectodermal dysplasias, however, are still largely unknown and their pathogenesis is poorly understood. Since we recently discovered that variants of the Interferon Regulatory Factor 6 (IRF6) gene IRF6 may cause ED, we have further ...

Assessment and Correlation of Dactyloscopy, Cheiloscopy, and Rugoscopy Among Individuals With Different Skeletal Malocclusion—A Cross-Sectional Study

Journal of Indian Orthodontic Society, 2023
Background and Objectives A probable association between dermatoglyphics and malocclusions related to skeletal discrepancy may exist as dermal ridges, and craniofacial structures develop from the same embryonic tissues during the same embryonic period ...

The palatal rugae in an identification.

The Journal of forensic odonto-stomatology, 1989
It is a well established fact that the ruga pattern is as unique to a human as his fingerprints. It has also been found that in cases of severe mutilation and burning where the fingers and other superficial features of the body, including the face, are lost the palatal tissues remain remarkably well preserved. Any dentures which may be present, if they

Biomechanics and Evolution of the Primate Tongue

Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 35, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Primate tongue morphology and function are critical to understanding the evolution of feeding, swallowing, and vocalization. In this paper, we examine the primate tongue as a muscular hydrostat with regionally specialized neuromuscular compartments. We integrate anatomical, kinematic, and biomechanical modeling approaches to analyze how muscle

Palatal rugae: An effective marker in population differentiation

Journal of Forensic Dental Sciences, 2014
The superiority of dentofacial structures as scientific identifiers, particularly in mass disasters is well known. Special techniques like rugoscopy are valuable not only in identification of skeletal remains but can also facilitate population differentiation, as few studies have shown.The present study is to classify and compare the differences in ...

Dento‐Skeletal Effects of the Myofunctional 8‐Appliance in Growing Patients

Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, Volume 12, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the dento‐skeletal effects of the Myofunctional 8‐Appliance (MF8A) in growing patients with transverse dentoalveolar deficits. The primary research question was whether MF8A could guide dental arch growth by supporting tongue function in patients showing transverse deficiencies. Materials and Methods The

Pemanfaatan Ruga Palatal untuk Identifikasi Forensik

Journal of Dentistry Indonesia, 2012
Human identification is very important in forensic field. Analysis of teeth and other components in oral cavity can make a significant contribution in the process. Palatal rugae, which is one of the components in oral cavity, have a promising prospect in
