The effect of partially exposed connective tissue graft on root ‐coverage outcomes: a systematic review and meta‐analysis
The aim of this systematic review was to compare the root‐coverage outcomes of using a partially exposed connective tissue graft (CTG) technique with a fully covered CTG technique for root coverage. An electronic search up to February 28th, 2017, was performed to identify human clinical studies with data comparing outcomes of root coverage using CTG, with and without a partially exposed graft. Five clinical studies were selected for inclusion in this review. For each study, the gain of keratinized gingiva, reduction of recession depth, number of surgical sites achieving complete root coverage, percentage of root coverage...

Cigarette smoke extract induces oral squamous cell carcinoma cell invasion in a receptor for advanced glycation end ‐products‐dependent manner
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) affects approximately 30,000 people and is associated with tobacco use. Little is known about the mechanistic effects of second‐hand smoke in the development of OSSC. The receptor for advanced glycation end‐products (RAGE) is a surface receptor that is upregulated by second‐hand smoke and inhibited by semi‐synthetic glycosaminoglycan ethers (SAGEs). Our objective was to determine the role of RAGE during cigarette smoke extract‐induced cellular responses and to use SAGEs as a modulating factor of Ca9‐22 OSCC cell invasion. Ca9‐22 cells were cultured in the presence or absenc...

Perceptions of the dental profession: a comparative analysis through scale development
Dentistry is a science‐based profession that has a close interaction with people and society. However, despite this close interaction, perceptions of the dental profession by both patients and dental professionals have received little research attention. The purpose of this study was to compare the perceptions of dentists, dental students, and patients toward the dental profession through the development and testing of the Dental Profession Perceptions Scale (DPPS). The DPPS contains a total of 17 items measured on a 5‐point Likert response scale. The DPPS showed excellent internal reliability (Cronbach's α = 0.92) ...

Internal fit of three ‐unit fixed dental prostheses produced by computer‐aided design/computer‐aided manufacturing and the lost‐wax metal casting technique assessed using the triple‐scan protocol
Suboptimal adaptation of fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) can lead to technical and biological complications. It is unclear if the computer‐aided design/computer‐aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technique improves adaptation of FDPs compared with FDPs made using the lost‐wax and metal casting technique. Three‐unit FDPs were manufactured by CAD/CAM based on digital impression of a typodont model. The FDPs were made from one of five materials: pre‐sintered zirconium dioxide; hot isostatic pressed zirconium dioxide; lithium disilicate glass‐ceramic; milled cobalt‐chromium; and laser‐sintered cobalt‐chromium. The ...

Calcium hydroxide regulates transcription of the bone sialoprotein gene via a calcium ‐sensing receptor in osteoblast‐like ROS 17/2.8 cells
In this study, we investigated the regulation of Bsp transcription by calcium hydroxide [Ca(OH)2] in rat osteosarcoma‐derived osteoblast‐like ROS 17/2.8 cells and stromal bone marrow cells. Application of Ca(OH)2 (0.4 mM) increased the levels of runt‐related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) and BspmRNAs at 3 and 6 h and the level of BSP protein at 12 h. Transient transfection analyses were performed using chimeric constructs encompassing different regions of the rat Bsp gene promoter ligated to a luciferase reporter gene. It was found that Ca(OH)2 increased the luciferase activities of the pLUC3 and pLUC4 constructs...

Homeobox protein MSX ‐1 inhibits expression of bone morphogenetic protein 2, bone morphogenetic protein 4, and lymphoid enhancer‐binding factor 1 via Wnt/β‐catenin signaling to prevent differentiation of dental mesenchymal cells during the late bell stage
Homeobox protein MSX‐1 (hereafter referred to as MSX‐1) is essential for early tooth‐germ development. Tooth‐germ development is arrested at bud stage in Msx1 knockout mice, which prompted us to study the functions of MSX‐1 beyond this stage. Here, we investigated the roles of MSX‐1 during late bell stage. Mesenchymal cells of the mandibular first molar were isolated from mice at embryonic day (E)17.5 and cultured in vitro. We determined the expression levels of β‐catenin, bone morphogenetic protein 2 (Bmp2), Bmp4, and lymphoid enhancer‐binding factor 1 (Lef1) after knockdown or overexpression of Msx1. Ou...

Oral health ‐related quality of life, measured using the five‐item version of the Oral Health Impact Profile, in relation to socio‐economic status: a population survey in Sweden
This study was conducted to analyse the association between OHRQoL, as measured using the five‐item version of the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP‐5), and different socio‐economic indices. A national survey of randomly selected adult individuals in Sweden (n = 3,500) was performed using telephone interviews. The questions asked for the purpose of this study were defined by the items of the OHIP‐5, just as questions were asked regarding socio‐economic variables, including education, income, and economic resources. Poor OHRQoL, as identified by an OHIP‐5 score of 3 or higher on at least two of the five items, ...
