Abstract

Forensic odontology plays an important role in the identification of individuals, particularly in situations where other identification methods are no longer applicable. Conservative dentistry generates comprehensive clinical data, including restorations, radiographic images, and treatment history, which have the potential to support forensic identification processes. This study aims to analyze the role of conservative dental records in supporting forensic odontological identification from a public health perspective. The method used is a narrative review based on scientific literature published between 2020 and 2026 that is relevant to the topic. The results indicate that dental records serve as reliable and individualized antemortem data, contributing significantly to the accuracy of identification, especially in mass disaster scenarios. However, their utilization remains limited due to challenges such as lack of standardization, inconsistent documentation quality, and absence of integrated database systems. Advances in digital dentistry and artificial intelligence offer opportunities to improve the efficiency and accuracy of identification processes, although ethical and regulatory aspects must be carefully considered. In conclusion, strengthening the quality, standardization, and integration of dental records is essential to support effective forensic identification systems and public health frameworks.

Abstract

Edentulism is a condition of total tooth loss that has a significant impact on the efficiency of mastics, phonetics, and facial aesthetics. This case report presents the rehabilitation of a 72-year-old female patient with a condition of total mandible edentulus using two standard-diameter implants that support the overdenture with a locator retention system. Treatment procedures include clinical evaluation, radiographic analysis, implant placement, prosthesis placement, as well as follow-up evaluation to assess function and comfort. The results of the treatment showed an increase in patient retention, stability, and comfort in daily activities. In addition, patients reported improved confidence and quality of life after the use of implant-based overdentures. These findings confirm that overdenture with mandibular implant support is a predictive, effective, and reliable rehabilitation method in treating total edentulism. The success of this case provides clinical evidence that implant-based approaches are able to overcome the limitations of conventional prostheses, as well as being a solution that supports the functional and psychosocial aspects of elderly patients. Thus, implant-based overdenture can be recommended as the primary therapeutic option in the rehabilitation of mandibular edentulism.

Abstract

Tooth wear is a progressive loss of dental hard tissue commonly associated with parafunctional activities such as bruxism and clenching. In badminton athletes, physiological and psychological stress during training and competition may increase sleep bruxism activity, thereby accelerating occlusal surface wear and disrupting the stomatognathic system. The use of night guard or occlusal splint has been recommended as a conservative therapy to stabilize occlusal force distribution, reduce destructive tooth contact and decrease masticatory muscle hyperactivity during bruxism episodes. This literature review was conducted using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) approach to evaluate the effectiveness of night guard use in reducing tooth wear and to examine its implications for focus and concentration in badminton athletes within the field of sports dentistry. Literature searches were performed through PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect and Google Scholar for articles published between 2020 and 2025. The findings indicate that night guards are effective in reducing bruxism activity, minimizing excessive occlusal load and providing protective effects on enamel and dentin. Occlusal stabilization may also influence neuromuscular function and athletic performance readiness. However, evidence regarding its direct effects on athletes’ focus and concentration remains limited and requires further investigation.Keywords – Bruxism, Night Guard, Tooth Wear.

Abstract

Background: Carious lesions remain one of the most prevalent chronic oral diseases and continue to represent a major indication for operative intervention in conservative dentistry. Variability in diagnostic interpretation and treatment thresholds may compromise long-term outcomes when lesion activity and patient-related risk factors are not systematically considered. Contemporary clinical practice increasingly emphasises risk-based management strategies to enhance biological preservation and improve restorative predictability. Purpose: This evidence-informed review aims to examine current concepts and clinical implications of risk-based diagnostic assessment and treatment planning in the management of carious lesions within conservative dentistry. Reviews: The literature indicates that integration of lesion activity evaluation, individualised caries risk profiling, structured diagnostic systems, and adjunct digital technologies contributes to more consistent and minimally invasive treatment decisions. Risk-oriented approaches support preservation of remineralizable tissues, reduce unnecessary operative procedures, and enhance restoration longevity when combined with preventive reinforcement. Contemporary frameworks encourage a shift from procedure-centred intervention toward patient-centred disease control based on susceptibility and biological criteria. Conclusion: Risk-based management provides a rational and biologically grounded foundation for treating carious lesions in conservative dentistry. Incorporation of individualised risk assessment and lesion activity evaluation into routine clinical protocols strengthens treatment predictability, promotes tissue preservation, and supports sustainable restorative outcomes.

Abstract

The oral mucosa is a vital component of the human body, forming the moist lining of the oral cavity and acting as the first barrier against physical, chemical, and microbial insults. Oral mucosal injuries are among the most common conditions in dental practice and may result from mechanical trauma, infections, systemic diseases, or iatrogenic factors. In physically active individuals and athletes, the risk of orofacial injury is significantly higher due to repeated exposure to impact and mechanical stress. Borassus flabellifer, a tropical plant widely used in traditional medicine, has gained attention due to its rich phytochemical content, including flavonoids, polyphenols, and saponins. To evaluate the regenerative potential of Borassus flabellifer as a therapeutic agent for oral mucosal wound healing based on available scientific evidence. A structured literature search was conducted across PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar using Boolean search strategies based on the PICO framework. Studies published between 2016 and 2026 were screened according to predefined inclusion criteria. Results: A total of 5 eligible studies were identified and included in this review. The findings consistently demonstrated that Borassus flabellifer exhibits anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, which are key mechanisms in promoting wound healing. These studies reported enhanced tissue regeneration, reduced inflammation, and improved healing outcomes associated with its phytochemical constituents. Borassus flabellifer shows promising potential as a natural therapeutic agent for oral mucosal wound healing. Its bioactive compounds support its development as a topical treatment; however, further clinical studies are needed to confirm its efficacy and safety
