Student Perceptions of 360o (3D) Imaged‐Models Used for Fixed Prosthodontics Simulation Education: Enhancing Visualisation, Understanding and Self‐Assessment

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction This study evaluated and compared the effectiveness of a novel 3D imaged models (3D IMs) and physical reference models in supporting student learning of indirect tooth preparations. Materials and Methods Fourth‐year dental students from 2021 (N = 69) and 2022 (N = 54) received access to 3D IMs and real‐sized plastic models ...

The dawn of rapid maxillary expansion.

open access: yesThe Angle orthodontist, 1999
The first report of lateral maxillary expansion by separation of the maxilla, written by Angell and published in 1860, was discredited. Applying our present-day knowledge of the technique to the original documents indicates that the case history agrees in general with current observations.

Rapid maxillary expansion and conductive hearing loss.

open access: yesThe Angle orthodontist, 2003
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of rapid maxillary expansion (RME) on conductive hearing loss in 35 subjects (21 girls and 14 boys) with an average age of 14 years 6 months. All patients had maxillary constriction with a high palatal vault and a conductive hearing loss.

Sleep Medicine Education in Italian Undergraduate and Post‐Graduate Dental Programs

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Sleep‐related breathing disorders (SRBD), particularly obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), represent a major public health concern, yet remain widely underdiagnosed. Dentists play an important role in screening, referral, and management of SRBD; however, the extent of sleep medicine education in Italian dental curricula is unknown ...

Artificial Intelligence in the Detection of Clinically Negotiable Second Mesio‐Buccal Canals in Periapical Images of Maxillary Molars

open access: yesInternational Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to aid clinicians in assessing case difficulty in endodontics. The objectives of this study were to develop and validate deep learning models for the detection of clinically negotiable MB2 canals in periapical images of maxillary first and second molars, and to compare the performance of AI ...

Multicenter RCT 6‐Year Survival of Zirconia‐Reinforced Lithium Silicate Endocrowns: 90° Shoulder Versus Butt‐Joint Margins

open access: yesInternational Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Margin design significantly influences endocrown biomechanical performance. Nevertheless, long‐term clinical data comparing margin designs within a singular zirconia‐reinforced lithium silicate (ZLS) system remain scarce. This study reports the 6‐year follow‐up results of a multicenter, prospective, randomized, assessor‐blinded ...
