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...

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 ...

In few groups of parasites have the patterns of distribution been studied using quantitative methods, even though, the study of these organisms indirectly provides information on the biogeographic history of their hosts,...

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...

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...

ABSTRACT: Objectives: To evaluate and synthesise the current evidence on the efficacy of laser-activated irrigation in endodontics, with a focus on microbial reduction, postoperative outcomes, and its potential as an ad...

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...

ABSTRACT: Objective: To investigate the effects of commonly prescribed antibiotics and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) during early life on enamel development through a systematic review with quantitative ...

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...

Associations between periodontal disease (PD) and cancers risk have been described previously, but the evidence remains inconclusive. This study aimed to investigate the association between PD and specific cancers throug...

Background: Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) from Gram-negative bacteria are spherical lipid bilayer nanostructures with diameters of 20 to 250 nm. Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis), a keystone periodontal pathogen,...

Introduction and aims: Early clinical exposure (ECE) integrates students into clinical settings during theoretical learning, aiming to foster professional development. This systematic review aims to comprehensively evalu...

Objective: The successful completion of orthodontic treatment largely depends on the accuracy of bracket placement. This study aimed to compare the impact of virtual simulation and traditional training on bonding, while ...

Objectives: By establishing a rat model of periapical infection, this study compared the anti‑inflammatory effects of caerin 1.1/1.9 hydrogel and calcium hydroxide paste, aiming to provide a novel therapeutic strategy ...

ABSTRACT: Introduction and aims: To provide the research progress on the cGAS-STING signalling pathway and its related roles in various oral diseases. Methods: We reviewed the recent research on cGAS-STING in PubMed. Th...

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: Mandibular movement is a complex physiological process essential for orofacial function. Patients with disc displacement without reduction (DDWoR) exhibit significant kinematic impairments, which a...

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 ...
