Lungfish‐like antero‐labial tooth addition and amphibian‐like enameloid‐enamel transition in the coronoid of a Devonian stem actinopterygian

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The tooth patterning logic, which cannot be inferred from surface morphology, is revealed by visualizing buried tooth remnants in 3D. The primary teeth are added labially, initially organized in radial rows, which transition into linear rows where the coronoid becomes slender.

Skull morphology and histology indicate the presence of an unexpected buccal soft tissue structure in dinosaurs

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
A combined approach of osteology and histology was used to examine the cheek regions of dinosaurs. Strong evidence was found for a soft tissue in this region connecting the zygoma to the mandible, here named the ‘exoparia’. Abstract Unlike mammals, reptiles typically lack large muscles and ligaments that connect the zygoma to the mandible.

Surface morphology and distribution of oropharyngeal taste papillae in sharks and rays (Elasmobranchii, Chondrichthyes): Implications for gustatory sensitivity

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This study investigates the morphology, abundance, and distribution of taste papillae in the oropharyngeal cavity of a range of elasmobranchs using SEM, histology, and topographic analyses. The interspecific importance of gustation is reflected in quantitative differences in the size, density, and distribution of taste papillae, which have implications

Quadrate orientation and joint reaction force underwent correlated evolution during suchian evolution

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The quadrate is the cranial bone of the nonmammalian jaw joint. The quadrate has long been hypothesized to mirror the direction of joint reaction forces (JRF) during feeding. This study uses 3D biomechanical modeling to reveal a striking evolutionary link between quadrate orientation and JRF direction, unlocking new insights into the dynamic forces ...

Diagnostic Accuracy of an Orofacial Scale for the Detection of Orofacial Myofunctional Disorders in Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnoea

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) are known to have orofacial myofunctional disorders (OMD) compared to healthy individuals. Consequently, treatment with oropharyngeal exercises has shown promise in some OSA cases. However, this requires an adequate orofacial myofunctional evaluation.

Accuracy of Cytological Methods in Early Detection of Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Potentially Malignant Disorders: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Oral Pathology &Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) carries significant global mortality rates. Brush cytology presents a potential adjunctive tool for early detection and monitoring of OSCC and oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs). This study aims to systematically evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of cytology for detecting OSCC and OPMDs

In vitro evaluation of the impact of intraoral scanner, scanning aids, and the scanned arch on the scan accuracy of edentulous arches

open access: yesJournal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To assess the accuracy of complete maxillary and mandibular edentulous arch scans obtained using two different intraoral scanners (IOSs), with and without scanning aids, and to compare these results to those obtained using conventional impression methods.

Intraoral scanning for implant‐supported complete‐arch fixed dental prostheses (ISCFDPs): Four clinical reports

open access: yesJournal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Although there are difficulties with using intraoral scans for implant‐supported complete‐arch fixed dental prostheses (ISCFDPs), several commercially available systems have become helpful in simplifying the treatment process in the prosthetic phase.
