Introduction and aims: Healing abutment dislodgement is a common clinical complication in dental implantology, yet its impact on peri-implant soft tissue immunity remains unclear. This exploratory pilot study aimed to in...

To evaluate the frequency and types of data availability statements (DASs) of publications in journals indexed in the Dentistry, Oral surgery and Medical (DOM) category of Journal Citation Reports (JCR) database, and to ...

The characteristic oral environment – with its dynamic clearance, moisture, microbial load, and inflammatory potential – makes oral diseases highly prevalent and therapeutically challenging. Metal-organic frameworks ...

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: ...

Introduction and aims: Submucous cleft palate (SMCP) is a congenital craniofacial malformation. While TBX22 is a known pathogenic gene, the potential role of TBX15 in SMCP remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate...

Oral mucosal ageing represents a fundamental reprogramming of the tissue microenvironment, a dynamic process that underlies the functional decline and heightened disease susceptibility observed in the elderly. This revie...

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...

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...

ABSTRACT: Introduction and aims: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a common malignant tumour of the head and neck region. In recent years, the relationship between pyroptosis and tumours has received increasing att...

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: Ranula is a mucus retention cyst originating from the sublingual gland, and surgical intervention has traditionally been the main treatment. However, surgery is often associated with recurrence, ri...

ABSTRACT: Dental and maxillofacial injuries represent an important but underrecognised component of trauma during episodes of violent crowd control. Blunt and projectile forces directed toward the head frequently result ...

Objective: The objective of this study was to synthesise a novel silver nanocomposite incorporating quorum-quenching enzyme N-acyl-homoserine lactone-lactonase Est816 (Ag-Est816) to inhibit periodontal biofilm formation....

Objective: To explore and compare the extent of maximal gingival display among four different facial expressions, including the requested smile, Duchenne smile, grimace of disgust, and funnel-shaped expression, using Aut...

Introduction and aims: This article aims to answer how emerging technologies, education, and governance can be strategically integrated to improve oral health in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). By focusing on Vene...

ABSTRACT: Objective: While diabetes is known to impair dentin regenerative capacity, the specific role of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) is poorly defined. This study aimed to elucidate how eNOS regulates the ...

Objective: Periodontally accelerated osteogenic orthodontics (PAOO) combines selective alveolar decortication with orthodontic force to accelerate tooth movement, but its influence on the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) ...

Background: The progression of pulpitis is strongly affected by the fate of dental pulp cells, with their modes of cell death determining whether inflammation resolves or leads to irreversible necrosis. Cuproptosis, a co...

Introduction and aims: Increasing evidence suggests that marginal zone B and B1 cell-specific protein (MZB1) plays crucial roles in inflammatory responses, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and cell survival, but its fu...

Background: Spinal cord injury (SCI) has emerged as a major challenge to global public health due to its low recovery rate and high disability rate, making the development of novel therapeutic approaches imperative. Mese...

Background: Accurate prediction of facial aesthetics after orthodontic treatment is crucial for clinical planning, yet traditional methodologies often lack the required accuracy and realism. We introduce a novel generati...

Introduction and aims: For decades, orthodontic diagnosis and treatment have primarily depended on physical models, imaging techniques, and three-dimensional (3D) imaging technologies. Nevertheless, single-modal data exh...
