Revolutionizing dentistry: Exploring the potential of facial scanners for precise treatment planning and enhanced patient outcomes
An innovative method for aligning face scans with intraoral scans is introduced, leveraging a novel 3D printed device. This technique addresses the longstanding challenge of accurately merging these two types of dental scans by incorporating a physical reference point —the nose—into both scans for precise alignment. This advancement promises to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of digital dental diagnostics and treatments. (Source: Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry)

Adaptation of cobalt chromium frameworks fabricated by conventional versus selective laser melting techniques: An in vitro and clinical assessment
Three-dimensional (3D) printing of cobalt chromium (Co-Cr) removable partial dentures (RPDs)by selective laser melting (SLM) has been claimed to be less challenging than by conventional casting and provides significant improvements. However, the adaptation and fit of the SLM framework and the optimum build orientation are still unclear. (Source: Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry)

Maxillary sinus floor elevation for implant placement assisted by an autonomous dental implant robotic system: A clinical report
Precise implant placement is key to ensuring the success of dental implant surgery. Implant robotic systems have been increasingly adopted for clinical procedures because of their accuracy. Maxillary sinus floor elevation with the Disk-up Sinus Reamer (DSR) may be an effective solution for inadequate posterior maxillary bone height. This clinical treatment combined with an autonomous implant robot with DSR for maxillary sinus floor elevation with simultaneous dental implant surgery may be suitable for clinical practice.

The role of MicroRNAs in the diagnosis and treatment of oral premalignant disorders
AbstractOral premalignant disorders (OPMDs) are a group of potentially malignant conditions that pose a significant health burden globally. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), small non-coding RNA molecules, have emerged as crucial regulators of gene expression and have been implicated in various biological processes, including carcinogenesis. This review synthesizes existing knowledge to provide a comprehensive understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying OPMDs and to highlight the potential of miRNAs as promising biomarkers and therapeutic targets. Additionally, this review seeks to explore the potential of miRNA-based diagnosti...
