Background: Immediate post-extraction dental implants are increasingly popular, but ensuring primary stability and managing peri-implant tissues remain challenging. Implant macro-design significantly impacts stability and osseointegration. This study...

Background: Several therapies involving the use of oxygen have been developed; however, the literature to date has poorly addressed the effects of Topical Oxygen Therapy (TOT) on oral tissues. The aim of the present pilot study was to histologically...

Background/Objectives: Many commercial light-emitting diode (LED) devices are available for consumer home usage. The performance characteristics in respect to the dosimetry of many of the devices, currently on direct sale to the public, have not been...

Background: Clinical teaching is crucial to dental education as it shapes the identity and professional development of students. However, there is a lack of research regarding the responsibilities of clinical teachers, their professional behavior, pe...

Surgical guides are integral tools in orthodontics, enhancing the precision and predictability of mini-implant placement. These guides facilitate accurate positioning, reduce risks to surrounding anatomical structures, and ensure proper angulation an...

Background: Replacing a maxillary central incisor and immediately placing an implant represents a clinical challenge. Methods: This case report demonstrates a full digital workflow to achieve a predictable implant placement and esthetically pleasing...

Background/Objectives: The objective of this study was to investigate the internal morphology and root canal configurations (RCCs) of maxillary central incisors (MxCIs) in a Swiss–German population by means of micro-computed tomography (µ...

Objective: This study aims to investigate the mechanical behavior of titanium (Ti6Al4V) mini-implants (MIs) under varying orthodontic forces using finite element analysis (FEA) and to evaluate their performance and durability under realistic clinical...

Objective: This study aimed to compare the effects of orthodontic treatment on the same patients using aligners (upper arch) versus traditional fixed appliances (lower arch) on oral hygiene and periodontal health. Materials and Methods: A total of 90...

Background: Untreated impacted wisdom teeth can lead to complications, including delayed healing and inferior alveolar nerve damage. Delayed management is further complicated by age-related comorbidities. Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the managem...
