Differences in Tongue Muscle Activity During Chewing of Rice With Various Textures
During chewing, tongue muscle activity increased in the late stage for softer, wetter and more cohesive boluses, showing a pattern distinct from the masseter and suprahyoid muscles. These findings suggest that tongue muscle activity is modulated according to bolus properties and may contribute to bolus gathering, shaping and transport.

Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.
