Perceived Educational Value of a Self‐Developed 3D‐Printed Pediatric Dentistry Simulator

Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To design and assess a 3D‐printed pediatric dentistry simulator and to evaluate its perceived educational value and realism through student and expert feedback. Methods A maxillary simulator that is mountable on phantom heads was developed and produced by desktop stereolithography with single‐use inserts, enabling proximal caries ...

Tales From Within: Dental Students’ Reflective Activities Involving Equity‐Deserving Communities

Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Undergraduate dental training benefits from community service‐learning (CSL) placements, in which equity‐deserving groups receive oral health care and students can critically reflect on their experiences. This study aimed to thematically explore the moments of revelation and struggle that senior dental students reflected on while ...

Deep learning cone‐beam computed tomography image segmentation for the 3D visualization of mandibular infraosseous periodontal defects

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The accurate assessment of infraosseous periodontal defects is crucial for effective diagnosis and treatment planning. Cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT) enables detailed imaging of these defects; however, to leverage their full potential, CBCT images must be reconstructed in 3 dimensions (3D).

Endoscopic Transnasal Apicoectomy for Odontogenic Maxillary Sinusitis

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Endoscopic transnasal apicoectomy (ETA) is a novel multidisciplinary technique that combines endoscopic sinus surgery with apicoectomy via a transnasal approach. ETA enables direct access to periapical lesions while preserving the causative tooth. Our initial experience suggests that this minimally invasive approach is safe, feasible, and effective for

Partitioned Internal Auditory Canal: Association With Cochlear Aperture Anomalies

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Partitioned internal auditory canal (IAC), defined by a bony septum separating the facial nerve from the cochleovestibular nerve, occurs significantly more often in ears with stenotic or atretic cochlear aperture. ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the association between partitioned internal auditory canal (IAC) and other inner ear abnormalities ...

Winegrowers' Perceptions and Adoption of Sustainable Soil Management Practices and Technologies: A Case Study in Piedmont, Italy

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil is crucial for human survival but is threatened by erosion and contamination. Farmers play a pivotal role in soil conservation, thus, understanding what influences their decisions is crucial. The IN‐GEST SOIL project aimed to mitigate soil erosion and improve soil and vine quality in Piedmont vineyards, NW Italy.

Implications of heterogeneous embankment conditions for geoelectrical investigations on dams: A case study at Mactaquac Dam, Canada

Near Surface Geophysics, EarlyView.
Abstract Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) has been shown to be effective for surveying and monitoring dams, due to the method's sensitivity to moisture content and relevant physical properties (e.g., porosity). Automated ERT systems, capable of time‐lapse monitoring, can be used to detect variations in ground conditions.

What turns us off about green and blue spaces in cities? Understanding perceived problems and unpleasant experiences for more just urban planning, design and management

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The planning, design and management of urban green and blue spaces necessitate trade‐offs between these spaces' many benefits and their drawbacks, but knowledge of perceived problems and unpleasant experiences in urban green and blue spaces remains limited.
