Assessing the Efficacy of Allogeneic Nerve Grafts in Trigeminal Nerve Repair: A Systematic Review
Our primary objective was to assess the efficacy of allogeneic nerve grafts in inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) or lingual nerve (LN) repair. We hypothesized that using allogeneic nerve grafts would be effective, as evidenced by achieving high rates of functional sensory recovery (FSR). Additionally, we looked if sex, time from injury to repair, etiology of nerve damage, and graft length affected outcomes. (Source: Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery)

Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Medical Ethics: A Symbiotic Dance for the Future
In the fast-evolving landscape of medicine, the marriage between generative artificial intelligence (AI) and medical ethics presents a rich tapestry of opportunities and challenges, both exhilarating and daunting. As these 2 entities intertwine, it's crucial to deliberate on their implications, especially in fields like oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMS) where patient welfare and ethical standards sit at the forefront. Generative AI, primarily known for its ability to create content - from art to textual outputs, holds enormous potential in medicine. (Source: Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery)

RE: “Bruxism or Dystonia: That Is the Question”
We have read Dr Kazuya Yoshida ’s perspective about the possible entanglement of bruxism and oromandibular dystonia (OMD) with a lot of interest.1 The difficulties arising from the partially overlapping constructs,2 as well as the worlds-apart of dentistry and medicine,3 are highly recognizable.

RE: A Nonsurgical Treatment Strategy for Longstanding, Nonreducible, Bilateral Temporomandibular Joint Dislocation: A Case Report
The article by Dr Yaklai et  al1 that reports the use of elastic traction in the treatment of chronic longstanding temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dislocation is of great interest. The authors should be commended on their choice to report a nonsurgical strategy for treating this problematic condition; however, some critical asp ects of the strategy described should be pointed out.
