Abstract Background With the high prevalence of periodontitis, tooth rotation resulting from periodontal damage can be corrected through orthodontic treatment; however, the biomechanical complexity of tooth movement in c...

Objectives: Deep learning networks have achieved significant progress in caries diagnosis, but automated localization and numbering of carious teeth in cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images remain underexplored. Th...

Background: Connecting an osseointegrated implant and a natural tooth is a treatment alternative for partially edentulous patients in some clinical situations. The main issue of a connected tooth-implant system is derive...

Abstract Background Tooth avulsion, a severe dental trauma prevalent among adolescents, is commonly treated with delayed replantation. However, this procedure is frequently complicated by root resorption, which can ultim...

Abstract The operation of a shield tunnel boring machine (TBM) in a high-strength hard rock stratum results in significant cutter damage, adversely affecting the thrust and torque of the cutter head. Therefore, it is ver...

Nickel-titanium (NiTi) arch wire has properties that favor its use during the leveling and aligning phase of orthodontic treatment. This NiTi orthodontic arch wire has the potential to experience nickel ion release. One ...

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate erosive tooth wear (ETW) in different teeth and tooth surfaces among a group of Finnish adults, and to investigate the association between different risk factors and the manife...

Background/Aim: Toothbrushes are one of the main means of cleaning teeth and maintaining oral hygiene, but toothbrushes are also potential reservoir of microorganisms, including pathogens. The aim of this paper was to ev...

Objective: To test whether an AI-assisted, dual-template workflow improves plan–delivery accuracy in tooth autotransplantation versus a replica-only freehand approach. Methods: Twenty-four consecutive cases were assign...

After root canal treatment, tooth will be more fragile due to loss of tooth structure integrity as a result of the caries process, access preparation, reduced water, and or tooth fracture. This is the main consideration ...

The temporary loss of an animal’sa feeding structure can often be replaced by a new one. During that replacement period, however, the animal can be limited in its ability to feed. The muricid gastropod Acanthina monodo...

Nickel-titanium archwires in orthodontic wires have nickel ion releases. The use toothpaste and saliva immersion time may cause its releases. This study aims to prove the difference and interaction between immersion time...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims The Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease (CMT) comprises genetically diverse motor and sensory neuropathies. This study aims to conduct a comprehensive investigation into the current academic and ...

Abstract Background Tooth loss remains a significant public health burden in developing countries like Nepal. Since teeth are vital to mastication, speech, and facial esthetics, tooth loss can have a major impact both on...

Tooth discoloration is categorized into intrinsic and extrinsic types, with the latter caused by external staining agents such as pigmented beverages (e.g., black tea). Whitening toothpastes are commonly used to address ...

Abstract Background Interstitial brachytherapy is an effective and organ-preserving radiotherapeutic modality for pediatric and adolescent patients with head and neck tumors, offering favorable outcomes with minimal impa...

Abstract The continuous deposition of secondary dentin as age advances leads to a pulp chamber reduction, which has enabled the development of methods for dental age estimation. The aim of this systematic review and meta...

Demineralization is a process of partial or full tooth mineral loss which caused by acidic environment, for example the side effect of extracoronal bleaching treatment. Demineralization increases enamel surface roughness...

The aim of the research is to investigate the influence of coil spring directions and masticatory force on the amount of OTM. Materials and Methods. Thirty-six male Wistar rats (n = 36) were divided proportionally into t...

Objectives: To compare the effects of airborne-particle abrasion (APA) and tribochemical silica coating (TSC) surface treatment methods on the shear bond strength of zirconia ceramics systems, resin cements and tooth sur...

Dental restoration alternatives for posterior missing tooth range from dental bridges to implant dentures. Fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) resin bridge is one option for the replacement of a single tooth missing. FRC br...

Introduction: Visual shade matching has been practiced in dentistry for decades to find a shade of restoration that perfectly match with adjacent tooth for natural aesthetic look. Intraoral camera is an adjunct tool for ...

Primary teeth play a vital role as masticatory organs that support the digestive process in children. Preterm low birth weight (PTLBW) is a significant public health concern in many countries and may adversely affect chi...
