Understanding extracellular vesicle biology, isolation, and characterization: The theory of EV‐erything

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Extracellular vesicles (EVs), especially exosomes, are nanoparticles increasingly recognized as key regulators of intercellular communication in both physiological and pathological aspects. Despite rapid progress, inconsistencies in nomenclature, isolation, and characterization continue to restrict translational advancement.

Tooth eruption status and bite force determine dental microwear texture gradients in albino rats (Rattus norvegicus forma domestica)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2411-2423, September 2026.
Abstract Dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) is widely applied for inferring diet in vertebrates. Besides diet and ingesta properties, factors like wear stage and bite force may affect microwear formation, potentially leading to tooth position‐specific microwear patterns.

Comparative and functional anatomy of masticatory muscles and bite force in opossums (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2346-2367, September 2026.
We describe the functional anatomy of masticatory muscles in nine opossums, finding a generalized anatomical pattern with differences related to skull morphology. Variation in quantitative myological data and estimated bite force was mostly related to size, and the increase in bite force supports dietary diversification associated with size increase ...

Evaluation of IHH, PTCH1, and SMO protein immunohistochemistry in the human mandibular condyle at fetal stages from 30 to 80 mm greatest length

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 8, Page 2176-2188, August 2026.
Abstract This study evaluated the morphogenesis of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) in human fetuses during the third month of gestation through the analysis of immunohistochemistry for the proteins Indian Hedgehog (IHH), Patched‐1 (PTCH1), and Smoothened (SMO).

Concordance of a Structured Orthopantomogram Reporting Tool Between Dental Practitioners, and Compared to Routine Reports Within a Regional and Remote Service

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Dental Research, Volume 12, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Variability in interpreting orthopantomograms can have greater impact on regional and remote patients who experience poorer oral health, have reduced service access and incur greater costs, if referred to out‐of‐community services. Structured orthopantomogram reporting and specialist advice pathways may support more consistent image

Occlusal Splint Therapy in the Management of Temporomandibular Disorders—Evidence from Systematic Reviews

open access: yesJournal of Oral Rehabilitation, Volume 53, Issue 8, Page 1562-1579, August 2026.
This umbrella review of 21 systematic reviews evaluates occlusal splint therapy for TMD. Findings indicate mostly small beneficial or neutral effects on pain and mouth opening. Consequently, clinicians should prioritise cost‐effectiveness and patient preferences when considering splints, given the high variability in methodological quality across ...

Development and Implementation of a Three‐Year Postgraduate Curriculum for Oral Medicine Specialist Training in Australasia: A Framework From the Oral Medicine Academy of Australasia

open access: yesJournal of Oral Pathology &Medicine, Volume 55, Issue 7, Page 732-746, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Oral Medicine is that specialist branch of dentistry concerned with the diagnosis, prevention, and predominantly non‐surgical management of medically‐related disorders and conditions affecting the oral and maxillofacial region, in particular oral mucosal disease and orofacial pain, as well as the oral health care of medically ...

Electromyography Frequency Spectrum Is a Better Indicator of Sleep Bruxism Severity Related to Temporomandibular Disorder Pain Than Conventional Masticatory Muscle Activation and Bruxism Time Indices—A Pilot Study

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 35, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Sleep bruxism (SB) has been reportedly associated with temporomandibular disorder (TMD); however, solid evidence is lacking. Previous studies have primarily used traditional metrics, such as the masticatory muscle activity (MMA) index and bruxism time index (BTI) to investigate the link between SB and TMD.
