Bone construction surgery: A case report using recombinant human platelet‐derived growth factor‐BB
Clinical Advances in Periodontics, Volume 12, Issue 4, Page 262-269, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Background The position and condition of bone largely sets the stage for functional and esthetic implant success. In bone construction surgery, creating a sustainable functional matrix is complex, but necessary, to enable long‐term mechanotransduction and maintenance of soft tissue support.

Endoscopy-assisted removal through combined lower and middle meatotomies of an ectopic upper third molar in the sinus associated with a dentigerous cyst [PDF]
, 2018 The aim of this case report is to present an original conservative technique for the transnasal endoscopy-assisted extraction of an ectopic upper third molar associated with a dentigerous cyst occupying the whole maxillary sinus by means of combined ...

Who was the real sabertooth predator: Thylacosmilus or Thylacoleo?
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Sabertoothed mammalian predators, all now extinct, were almost exclusively feloid carnivorans (Eutheria, Placentalia): here a couple of extinct metatherian predators are considered in comparison with the placental sabertooths. Thylacosmilus (the “marsupial sabertooth”) and Thylacoleo (the “marsupial lion”) were both relatively large (puma ...

ToMoBrush: Exploring Dental Health Sensing using a Sonic Toothbrush [PDF]
Early detection of dental disease is crucial to prevent adverse outcomes. Today, dental X-rays are currently the most accurate gold standard for dental disease detection. Unfortunately, regular X-ray exam is still a privilege for billions of people around the world.

The effects of Nd:YAG laser hemostasis on pain and wound healing after tooth extraction: A split-mouth randomized controlled clinical trial [PDF]
, 2020 Tooth extraction is a common surgical procedure that includes severing hard and soft tissue to remove the tooth from its alveolar bony housing. Following extraction, normal stages of wound healing occur, including pain and inflammation, proliferation ...

Early synapsids neurosensory diversity revealed by CT and synchrotron scanning
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Non‐mammaliaform synapsids (NMS) represent the closest relatives of today's mammals among the early amniotes. Exploring their brain and nervous system is key to understanding how mammals evolved. Here, using CT and Synchrotron scanning, we document for the first time three extreme cases of neurosensory and behavioral adaptations that probe ...

Socket Preservation After Tooth Extraction Maxillary Lateral Incisor: A Case Report [PDF]
as a result off a tooth loss. These change are usually significant and can make placement of a conventional denture or an implant more difficult. Socket preservation after tooth extraction can minimize ridge resorption. Socket preservation can be done by

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Saber‐tooths, extinct apex predators with long and blade‐like upper canines, have appeared iteratively at least five times in the evolutionary history of vertebrates. Although saber‐tooths exhibit a relatively diverse range of morphologies, it is widely accepted that all killed their prey using the same predatory behavior. In this study, we CT‐

Morphological diversity of saber‐tooth upper canines and its functional implications
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Elongated upper canine teeth, commonly known as saber‐teeth, have evolved three times within the sub‐order Feliformia. The species that wielded them flourished throughout the Cenozoic and have historically been separated into two morphological groups: the dirk‐tooths with longer, flatter canines, and the scimitar‐tooths with shorter, serrated ...
