Evaluating histopathological factors of predicting the recurrence rate of odontogenic keratocyst
Conclusion: Gender (women), multilocular radiolucency, diffused inflammation in stroma, andmitosis in basal layer of epithelial lining, can statically predict the possibility of recurrence rate. Inaddition, findings regarding the age (in younger patients), corrugated surface, reverse polarity, andsub ‑basal cleft can be helpful in predicting recurrence.Key Words: Odontogenic cysts, pathology, recurrence (Source: Dental Research Journal)

Effects of incorporating zinc oxide and graphene oxide nanoparticles on abrasion, translucency, and microhardness of flowable composite resin: In vitro
Conclusion: Incorporation of NPs into flowable composite resin resulted in a decrease in translucency. The microhardness was reduced in groups containing ZnO, but the abrasion was also reduced in these groups. The incorporation of GO did not significantly alter the abrasion and microhardness of the composite resin.
