Intraosseous sarcoidosis imitating peri‐implantitis: A case study
Abstract Background Sarcoidosis is a multisystem granulomatous disorder of unknown cause, typically affecting the lungs and lymph nodes, but it can also involve the eyes, skin, heart, bones, and other organs. The exact cause is unclear, but genetic factors and environmental triggers like infections, chemicals, or dust may play a role.

Rapid maxillary expander vs planas expansion plates
One of the most frequent issues in orthodontics is the contraction of the maxilla, sometimes associated with unilateral or bilateral cross-bite. Correcting the transverse diameters of the maxillary arch can be achieved through various devices, both ...

Voclosporin‐induced gingival enlargement: A case report
Abstract Background Drug‐influenced gingival enlargement (DIGE) is a recognized adverse effect of certain medications, particularly immunosuppressants like cyclosporin and tacrolimus. However, there have been no documented cases of DIGE associated with voclosporin, a newer calcineurin inhibitor used primarily to treat lupus nephritis.

Abstract Background Dentitions have diversified enormously during vertebrate evolution, involving reductions, modifications, or allocations to prey seizing and processing regions. A combination of ancient and novel features related to dental and oropharyngeal apparatuses is found in extant lineages of non‐teleost fishes, such as the gars.

Three-Dimensional Photographic Evaluation of Immediate Soft Tissue Changes Following Rapid Maxillary Expansion [PDF]
The skeletal and dental changes associated with rapid maxillary expansion (RME) are well documented. Effects on the soft tissues and the potential impact on facial esthetics have not been well researched.

The role of Rho GTPases in facial morphogenesis
The role of small GTPases, RHOA, RAC1, and CDC42 and pathway mediators is reviewed in the context of embryonic facial development. Lip fusion requires cytoskeletal remodeling during morphogenesis of the facial processes and during lip fusion. Fnm, frontonasal mass; lnp, lateral nasal process; mnp, medial nasal process; mxp, maxillary process; np, nasal

Effect of rapid maxillary expansion on nocturnal enuresis.
One of the effects of rapid maxillary expansion (RME) is a reduction in nighttime bed-wetting. The aim of this prospective study was to investigate the effects of RME on nocturnal enuresis (NE) in children who are liable to psychosocial stress conditions.
