A comparative study evaluated how coffee additives alter enamel staining and compared abrasive versus hydrogen peroxide whitening toothpastes. While dairy cream significantly mitigated staining, artificial sweeteners offered no protection. Both toothpaste formulations effectively reduced external chromogens.
A new technical report introduces an anatomical landmark-based Cartesian coordinate system to evaluate mandibular ramus morphology. This reproducible approach refines 3D surgical planning and optimizes patient-specific osteosynthesis plate design.
Photobiomodulation uses red and near-infrared wavelengths to modulate cellular activity, reduce inflammation, and accelerate tissue repair. Experts discuss how this non-thermal light modality complements conventional care in surgical recovery, oncology support, dental procedures, and chronic pain management.
A comprehensive scoping review of 76 clinical studies highlights the predominant role of oral opening and motor control exercises in managing temporomandibular disorders. Clinicians must address gaps in dosage reporting, pain threshold guidance, and patient adherence to improve long-term functional recovery.
A recent investigation reveals that 8-methacryloxyoctyl trimethoxysilane (8-MOTS) applied at 1.0% to 1.5% significantly enhances bonding durability and shear bond strength to alumina-abraded zirconia restorations, maintaining over 20 MPa after severe hydrothermal boiling.
