Morphological and biomechanical adaptations of larval mandibles in Trichoptera (Insecta)

Physiological Entomology, EarlyView.
Mandible morphology differs between predators and grazers: predators show pointed incisors, grazers sharp edges and setae. Mechanical properties depend on cuticle tanning, not elemental reinforcement. Functional mandible types reflect feeding strategies, with predators specialized for prey capture and grazers for scraping and collecting.

Root surface biomodification in periodontal therapy: Biological rationale and clinical applications

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Regenerative periodontal therapy aims to form new cementum, periodontal ligament, and alveolar bone, all sealed by gingival tissue. The root surface acts as the wound margin during this regeneration process. Root surface biomodification (root conditioning/root decontamination), therefore, seems instrumental in promoting surface decontamination

Reviewing the benefits and clinical outcomes of oral fibroblasts over mesenchymal stem cells for repairing periodontal defects during or after orthodontic tooth movement

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Orthodontic therapy applies forces to teeth, causing an inflammatory reaction in the periodontal ligament. This is repaired by remodeling of the periodontium, allowing tooth displacement. Although orthodontic therapy is mostly initiated during childhood and adolescence, the number of adults seeking this treatment is increasing as our society's

Orthodontic management of uneven gingival margins in patients with healthy or reduced periodontium to improve smile aesthetics

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Uneven gingival margins may cause visible asymmetries during smiling and may reflect alterations in the tooth shape and morphology, particularly in cases requiring restorative procedures. Despite being perceived as a minor health condition, presence of uneven gingival margins usually impacts the smile aesthetics and could affect the individual'

Periodontal and orthodontic management of impacted canines

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract The maxillary and mandibular canines are described by many clinicians as the “cornerstone” of the arch. When in their optimal position, they play a critical role in providing a well‐balanced occlusal scheme that contributes toward functional as well as neuromuscular stability, harmony, esthetics, and dentofacial balance.

Inflammation and mechanical force‐induced bone remodeling

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Periodontitis arises from imbalanced host–microbe interactions, leading to dysbiosis and destructive inflammation. The host's innate and adaptive immune responses produce pro‐inflammatory mediators that stimulate destructive events, which cause loss of alveolar bone and connective tissue attachment.

Advantages of horizontal centrifugation of platelet‐rich fibrin in regenerative medicine and dentistry

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of this comprehensive review was to evaluate comparative studies on horizontal and fixed‐angle centrifugation methods for preparing platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF). Furthermore, additional studies utilizing horizontal PRF (H‐PRF) were systematically investigated.
