Abstract

Case report: This case report presents three successful approaches for preserving a tooth through root amputation or hemisection. Patients were referred to the Periodontic Department due to mobility of teeth and swelling of the upper left first molar, upper right first molar and lower right first molar with considerably good oral hygiene. Patients were diagnosed with generalized severe periodontitis associated with perio-endodontic lesions. Therefore, non-surgical root canal treatment (NSRCT) was carried out prior to periodontal treatment, followed by surgical root resection (RR) of the distobuccal (DB) root of the upper left first molar, root resection of the distobuccal (DB) root of the upper right first molar, while hemisection and amputation of the distal (D) root was performed on the lower right first molar. Upon 6-month and 1-year review, the teeth were asymptomatic and remained in function. Conclusion: This paper aims to portray the successful management of the period-endodontic lesion in the context of root resection and crown resection as a conservative method for retaining compromised teeth. The ability of RR to prolong the lifespan of compromised teeth and delay the need for more invasive interventions makes it an essential therapeutic option in contemporary dentistry.

Abstract

Objective: This research compared the effectiveness of the Active Skeletonized Sutural Distractor (ASSD) and the face mask (FM) in treating adolescent Class III malocclusion and assessed the stability of the mini screw utilized in the ASSD appliance. Methods: A total of 68 adolescents with Class III malocclusion were divided into either one of two treatment groups (ASSD or FM) for a maximum period of six months of therapy. Lateral cephalometric radiographs and impressions were taken for comparative purposes. The 3M® intra-oral elastic (USA) was attached to the mini-implant, and the mini-screw mobility was evaluated monthly using a force gauge (Correx®, Orthocare, UK). Changes in craniofacial morphology were compared using dependent and independent t-tests, respectively. The significance threshold was set at 0.05. Results: A total of 54 participants were included due to a drop-out. Statistically significant improvements were found in soft tissues and dentoskeletal parameters following treatment with both ASSD and FM. However, participants treated with ASSD showed significantly greater changes compared to FM. Except for inter premolar and inter molar width in the FM group, and intermolar width and palatal width in the ASSD group, neither appliance had a significant influence on palate and dental arch parameters after treatment. The percentage of mini-screw stability was 61.53%. Most participants (73.07%) in the ASSD group achieved corrections over 6 months. Conclusion: The ASSD has the potential to treat Class III malocclusion with better outcomes than the conventional FM and may replace the necessity for surgery.

Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of condylar and coronoid process anomalies, their types, and their relationship to sex. Method: Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images were retrospectively analyzed for the presence and types of abnormalities in the condylar and coronoid processes. Statistical analysis of measurement data was performed using SPSS version 22. Medical histories of the individuals were obtained from their digital dental records. Results: CBCT images of 400 individuals were included in the study. Condylar anomalies were observed in 9.5% of cases, while coronoid anomalies were found in 7.5%. All condylar anomalies were more common in women and on the left side. Hypoplasia was the most common condylar anomaly, whereas hyperplasia was the most prevalent coronoid anomaly (6.8%). Coronoid anomalies were more frequent in males and were predominantly bilateral. Conclusion: Examining all subtypes of condylar and coronoid process anomalies in a large population without age or sex limitations will enhance dentists’ understanding of the prevalence and distribution of these anomalies in the region, aiding in better diagnosis and treatment planning.

Abstract

Objective: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the different effects of trigeminal sensory and vagal-visceral inputs on blood flow (BF) in the submandibular gland (SMG). Methods: Ten to eleven-week-old Wistar rats were anesthetized with urethane (1.0 g/kg) and artificially ventilated. The femoral artery was cannulated for systemic arterial blood pressure (SABP) measurement. The cervical sympathetic trunk (CST) on both sides and the cervical vagus nerve (CVN) on the right side were cut before the stimulation of the left abdominal vagus nerve (AVN). The CVN and lingual nerve (LN) were stimulated after cutting the CST and CVN. AVN, LN, and CVN were electrically stimulated with supramaximal intensity (20 V, 20 Hz, 2-ms duration) for 20 s. SMG hemodynamics were recorded using a laser speckle imaging blood flow meter. SABP was recorded using a Statham pressure transducer. Results: LN stimulation elicited an increase in both SABP and SMG BF. On the other hand, CVN and AVN stimulation induced an increase in SABP and SMG BF. However, the SMG BF increase was lower than that observed after LN stimulation. Conclusion: Trigeminal sensory input rather than vagal-visceral input appears to be involved in the regulation of SMG BF.

Abstract

Patient-reported outcomes about peri-implantitis are lacking among the Asian population, impacting decision-making in dental implant therapy. Objectives: This study aimed to assess the prevalence of peri-implantitis among Malaysian adults, and its impact on oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL). Methods: Randomly selected 105 participants (adults aged 18 and above) having 265 implants were examined and diagnosed as with or without peri-implantitis (PI). Clinical examinations, including peri-implant probing depth, bleeding, and suppuration on probing with radiographic bone loss, were used to determine peri-implant status. OHRQoL of all participants were recorded using the short version of the Malaysian Oral Health Impact Profile [S-OHIP(M)] and reported as prevalence and severity of impact scores. Results: Prevalence of PI was 20.95% (95%CI 13.17-28.74) at the patient level and 11.7% (95%CI 7.83-15.57) at the implant level. Participants with PI had significantly greater percentages (p < 0.05) reporting impacts ‘fairly often’ or ‘very often’ in the dimensions ‘functional limitation’ and ‘handicap’ with their respective sub-items ‘difficulty chewing’ and ‘spending money.’ Both groups showed no significant difference in impact severity across items and domains. Although total S-OHIP(M) scores were higher in the PI group, the difference was not significant (p = 0.105). Conclusion: Peri-implantitis is relatively prevalent at 20%, but its impact on OHRQoL is minimal.

Abstract

Objective: Artificial intelligence’s (AI) potential to analyze medical data and improve patient outcomes is driving its rapid integration into healthcare systems. This study addresses the knowledge gap regarding Kazakhstani dental students’ attitudes toward AI in dentistry. Methods: A survey with 213 participants assessed dental students’ views on AI in dentistry at two Kazakhstani universities. A self-administered questionnaire (22 items) via Google Forms was used to gather data on demographics, baseline knowledge (information sources, understanding of AI principles, and familiarity with dental AI applications), and attitudes/perceptions. Frequency analyses and chi-square tests (p < 0.05) explored the responses. Results: The survey included 213 dental students (mean age: 21.79 ± 1.82 years). Two-thirds of participants reported basic knowledge of AI principles; however, the rate of dental AI application awareness was lower (40.9%). Friends and family (65.7%) were the primary sources of information, followed by lectures (14.1%) and social media (13.6%). The year of study and sex did not significantly impact AI knowledge or attitudes (p > 0.05). Conclusion: This study in Kazakhstan reveals dental students’ limited awareness of dental AI applications despite possessing basic AI knowledge. This study recommends taking AI-related dental courses and participating in AI workshops to equip students for the future of dentistry and empower them to contribute to and potentially lead Kazakh-specific dental AI advancements.

Abstract

Objectives: This study evaluates the scientific outcomes of endocrown research in terms of publication patterns, prominent publishing authors and countries, highly cited articles, and high-impact keywords using bibliometric analysis. Methods: A search was conducted in the Elsevier Scopus database for articles related to endocrowns using the query TS = “endocrown” OR “endo-crown” OR “endo crown*”. Analysis and visualization of the relevant literature and their publication data were performed using MS Excel, VOSviewer, and Biblioshiny. Results: Endocrown research has shown a steady annual growth of 15.23% since 1999, indicating a growing interest and focus in this area. Brazil was ranked among the top contributors, followed by Switzerland. The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry and Operative Dentistry was found to be the leading publisher of endocrown-related articles, while the Journal Dental Materials accumulated a significant number of citations despite a smaller number of published articles, indicating a high impact per publication. Major core research areas identified in endocrown research include the development of new materials with the incorporation of finite element analysis (FEA) and computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology. Finally, endocrown-related emerging keywords include “ceramic” with the highest annual normalized citation (ANC = 1.84), followed by “crown” (ANC = 1.40) and “lithium disilicate” (ANC = 131). Conclusions: The consistent annual growth of endocrown-related publications reflects rising interest in endocrown as a viable treatment option for endodontically treated teeth. It is expected that future research will prioritise exploring new materials and advancements in technology like CAD/CAM, along with incorporating FEA studies.

Abstract

Objectives: This study investigated the synthesis and partial characterization of phosphorylated chitosan extracted from the cuttlebone of Sepia aculeata (Orbingy, 1848) and evaluated its antimicrobial potential against oral pathogens. Methods: The synthesis of phosphorylated chitosan from Sepia aculeata cuttlebone involved several steps: cleaning, deproteinization, demineralization to extract chitin, deacetylation to produce chitosan, and phosphorylation to introduce phosphate groups. Phosphorylation enhances the properties of chitosan, making it a promising candidate for oral health applications. Phosphorylated chitosan was purified and characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) to confirm structural changes. This process enhances the properties of chitosan and promotes its sustainability by utilizing marine waste materials. Antimicrobial activity was assessed using the well diffusion method. Results: Results showed maximum inhibition against Pseudomonas aeruginosa (27 ± 2.25 mm) and minimum inhibition against Candida tropicalis (23 ± 1.83 mm), as confirmed by FT-IR spectroscopy, SEM, and XRD. Conclusion: Antimicrobial assays showed significant efficacy against common oral pathogens, indicating their potential use in dental-care products.
