Tracing the evolution of root coverage: Clinical milestones leading to a minimally invasive era
Abstract Over the past several decades, periodontal plastic surgery has undergone a remarkable transformation, particularly in the field of root coverage procedures. This review traces the historical evolution of surgical techniques, from the early use of pedicle flaps and free gingival grafts (FGGs) to the development of bilaminar approaches ...

Abstract Background Fibroblast growth factor‐2 (FGF‐2) is a novel agent utilized in periodontal regeneration therapy. However, its clinical efficacy compared with autologous bone graft (ABG), a long‐established treatment, remains unclear. This study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of FGF‐2 and ABG and to assess the impact of patient background ...

Abstract Background The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of different implant materials and arrangements within the field of view (FOV) and exomass on the diagnostic accuracy and image quality of cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT) for the detection of peri‐implant buccal bone defects of various sizes. Methods A total of 120 CBCT scans with

Raman Signature of the Wings of the Globe Skimmer Dragonfly: Pantala flavescens
Raman spectroscopy is used to confirm the presence of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons and related derivatives including aldehydes, halides, alcohols, acids, esters, and phenols on the wings of Pantala flavescens. The analysis indicates that wing‐surface lipid composition is largely consistent across the three main ecological zones in Ghana. Notably,

Abstract Purpose Treating large cartilage lesions in the knee remains a challenge. While matrix‐associated autologous chondrocyte implantation (MACI) is the gold standard for medium to large lesions, the minced cartilage technique has shown promise in smaller defects. Enhancing this technique with biomaterials has been suggested for larger lesions, but
