Introduction: The advancement of AI-assisted oral disease diagnosis critically relies on the availability of annotated, high-quality datasets and resilient deep learning architectures. Nevertheless, progress in this doma...

ABSTRACT: The integration of AI in dental practice, primarily through AI-enabled software, influences clinical workflows by promoting rapid decision-making and potentially increasing bias stemming from its automation bia...

Introduction and Aims: This study evaluated the effect of implant angulation on the accuracy of digital impressions for 3-unit implant-supported fixed partial dentures obtained with 2 intraoral scanners. Methods: Three p...

Objectives: This study aimed to develop an automated deep learning (DL) system to detect and classify second molar (M2) pathologies associated with impacted third molars (ITMs) on panoramic radiographs. We sought to enha...

Introduction and aims: To evaluate the diagnostic and reasoning capabilities of 4 state-of-the-art large language models (LLMs) on the Korean Dental Licensing Examination (KDLE) and to assess their potential as education...

Introduction and aims: The clinical efficacy of alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) is well-documented in the literature. However, there is a lack of evidence regarding ARP in the posterior area and in periodontally compro...

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...

Introduction: Computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) have transformed modern dentistry, yet evidence from the Caribbean remains limited. Objective: To assess CAD/CAM adoption among dentists in t...

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...

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...

Cerium-based materials were intensively studied in last years because of their high oxygen storage capacity (OSC) associated to the reversible Ce4+ Ce3+ process and their properties closely related to the defect chemistr...

Aims: Assessing the effect of different surface pretreatments, that is, sulfuric acid (SA), air-particle abrasion (APA), Er, Cr: YSGG laser, and nonthermal plasma (NTP)on the push-out bond strength (PBS) and surface roug...

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...

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...

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 and Objectives: Given the increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools for dental health information, this study compared patients' perceived health information literacy for AI chatbots, measured using...

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 ...

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...
