Objective: Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease that severely affects oral and general health. N7-methylguanosine (m7G) methylation plays critical roles in regulating gene expression and cellular functions. Me...

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...

Introduction: This study aimed to identify dental pain using machine learning (ML) algorithms in Brazilian adolescents for public health screening purposes. Methods: Data from 2 cross-sectional waves of the Brazilian Nat...

Introduction and aims: Oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS) produces complex clinical data, while artificial intelligence (AI) applications in this field remain limited despite great potential. This study aimed to map t...

Objectives: The concept of ‘One Health’ emphasizes the intrinsic connection of ‘Human Health’ with ‘Animal Health’ and ‘Environmental Health’. The research landscape of the intersection of one health in t...

Introduction and aims: Automated dental report generation faces significant challenges in multimodal fusion, often resulting in suboptimal semantic quality and risks of hallucination, where AI generates clinically unsupp...

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...

Introduction and aims: There has been a substantial increase in the number of umbrella reviews (URs) published in dentistry. To ensure their conclusions are accurate, these URs must be assessed for methodological quality...

Objectives: The minimum intervention oral health care (MIOC) delivery framework shifts restorative dentistry from a predominantly operative, procedure-centred model towards a person-focused, prevention-oriented and tooth...

Objectives: To investigate the monotonic and fatigue strength of 3D-printed 5 mol% yttria partially stabilized zirconia (5Y-PSZ) and the influences of printing layer orientation and finishing protocol. Methods: Bar-shape...

Introduction and aims: Skeletal Class II malocclusion is heterogeneous, and conventional two-dimensional cephalometry may not fully capture relevant three-dimensional (3D) craniofacial variation. This study aimed to iden...

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...

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...

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....

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...

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 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...

Objectives: To comprehensively analyse the burden of five oral diseases in China, including caries of deciduous teeth, caries of permanent teeth, periodontal diseases, edentulism, and other oral disorders; compare their ...

This work presents, for the frst time, the development of magnetic composites using activated biochar (BC-Act) derived from yerba mate waste. It includes an analysis of the effect of the activation process on the formati...

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)...

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...

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the dentinal tubule-occluding efficacy of various desensitising toothpastes and a sodium fluoride varnish using a subnanolitre scaled fluid flow measuring device (NFMD)...

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...
