Introduction and aims: This study investigated the synergistic effect of combining 10-methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (10-MDP) and γ-methacryloxypropyl trimethoxysilane (γ-MPTS) in one primer on bonding to li...

ABSTRACT: Introduction: The links between oral health and female ageing are poorly understood, but many changes occur in the oral cavity of menopausal women that affect quality of life, and few current oral health inter...

Background: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of combined multiple-case teaching (MCT) and narrative medicine teaching (NMT) method compared with lecture-based learning (LBL) in the clinical pr...

Objectives: Survival rates in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) have failed to improve greatly over time, and novel biomarkers are urgently needed. Therefore, the aim was to evaluate the predictive abilit...

Objectives: This study utilized dual control groups, caries patients (a representative bacterial infectious disease) and healthy individuals, to identify the core microbiome specific to dental fluorosis and elucidate the...

This study aimed to evaluate the performance of deep learning models for segmenting the augmented bone following transalveolar sinus floor elevation (TSFE). Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) data from 103 patients und...

Background: Conventional glass ionomer cement (GIC) is widely used as a restorative base and liner owing to its chemical adhesion to dentine, fluoride release, and favourable biocompatibility. Nevertheless, its intrinsic...

ABSTRACT: Background: Lip and oral cavity cancer (LOCC) remains a significant issue in Europe, with an uneven public health burden. While trends have shifted, regional and sex-specific disparities persist due to modifia...

Objectives: To investigate the relationship between caries in primary teeth and caries in permanent teeth among primary school students, and to identify potential effect modifiers of this relationship. Methods: This retr...

Background: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a common oral cavity malignancy with a poor prognosis. Although chemokine-like receptor 1 (CMKLR1) has been implicated in tumor progression in several types of cancer, i...

Introduction and aims: Conventional removable partial denture (RPD) clasp fabrication with wrought wire depends on operator skill, limiting efficiency and reproducibility. This study compared robotically and manually ben...

Conceptual flexibility is the skill of categorizing a single object in different ways on separate occasions (e.g. first taxonomically: DOG-COW, and then thematically:DOG-DOGHOUSE). This skill contributes to the efficient...

Background: Recent years have witnessed a surge in the integration of digital intelligence within dental education, with various technologies increasingly supporting clinical skill training and educational applications. ...

Introduction and aims: Additive manufacturing technology has the potential to produce accurate restorations in the field of prosthodontics. This in vitro study aimed to investigate the dimensional accuracy and marginal a...

Introduction and aims: Oral lichen planus (OLP), a chronic inflammatory oral mucosal disorder with malignant potential, has been associated with oral microbial dysbiosis. While bacterial community alterations in OLP are ...

Introduction and aims: Subtype-specific differences in patient-reported outcomes (PROs) following periodontal therapy for gingivitis remain poorly defined. This study compared changes over time in clinical parameters, or...

Objective: To assess how resin cement viscosity and thickness influence the static shear bond strength (s-SBS) of adhesively bonded lithium disilicate ceramic. Methods: Cylindrical lithium disilicate samples were prepare...

Introduction and aim: In line with global and national goals to improve healthcare access and quality, this study projected prosthetic needs in young adults to guide prevention, training, and staffing at KAUDH. Methods: ...

A facile method for the preparation of cobalt ferrite nanotubes by use of bacterial cellulose nanoribbons as a template is described. The proposed method relays on a simple coprecipitation operation, which is a technique...

Aims: Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is a common chronic inflammatory oral mucosal disorder with uncertain aetiology. This study aimed to investigate the psychological conditions (ie, depression, anxiety and stress)...
