Osseodensification –– A Systematic Review and Qualitative Analysis of published literature.
Publication date: Available online 2 November 2019Source: Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial ResearchAuthor(s): Ninad Milind Padhye, Ashvini Mukul Padhye, Neel B. BhatavadekarAbstractThe recently introduced technique of osseodensification for dental implant involves the use of special drills (Densah) run in a counter-clockwise direction at the osteotomy site. It is claimed that this causes expansion of the osteotomy site, and increases density of the bone in immediate vicinity of the osteotomy. We reviewed published papers on the primary stability attained using this drilling technique. As a secondary finding, the bo...

Orthodontic treatment of class three malocclusion using clear aligners: a case report
We present a case of a 11-year-old girl with a skeletal class III malocclusion with bilateral cross bite, and a functional shift of the lower dental midline. A multiphase clear aligners’ treatment with the aim of removing all dental interferences which involved an anterior displacement of the mandible. At one-year follow-up, clear aligners’ therapy resulted in skeletal and dental improvements. Clear aligners therapy represents a valid alternative to fixed appliance therapy in the early interception of class III malocclusion.The present manuscript was prepared following the CARE guidelines.

Influence of Parental Authority in Development of Dental Fear among adolescents
ConclusionAuthoritarian parenting style is the most prevalent parenting style witnessed amongst both mothers and fathers in the Indian culture. High dental fear in children is directly associated with authoritarian parents while inversely with authoritative and permissive parenting style. The study recommends permissive parenting style for mothers and authoritative for fathers to reduce dental fear among their children. (Source: Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research)

Mandible and iliac osteoblasts exhibit different Wnt signaling responses to LMHF vibration
ConclusionsThis study demonstrates mandible osteoblasts and long bone osteoblasts respond differently to LMHF mechanical vibration in terms of Wnt signaling expression and ALP activity. Therefore, the effects of whole-body vibration on the long bones cannot be generalized to the jaw bones. Furthermore, osteoblast-like cells mediate the cellular responses to vibration, at least in part, by secreting extracellular signaling molecules.

Expression of CD34, VEGFR3 and eosinophil density in selected odontogenic tumors- A pilot study
ConclusionIt can be suggessted that tumor angiogenesis and eosinophil densities may play a more effective role than lymphangiogenesis in local invasive behavior of ameloblastoma rather than AOT. (Source: Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research)

A Mathematical Model for Root Canal Preparation using Endodontic File
ConclusionThe mathematical model described is helpful for the Endodontic experts, researchers, design engineers etc. However the applicability of the described mathematical model limited to assumption of study. The gap between root canal to be prepared and Endodontic file is zero while preparation. The Endodontic file weight, speed of rotation and substrate removal rate is assumed to be constant. The mathematical model for Endodontic file discussed above proved to be efficient tool for studying the root canal preparation. The various geometric parameters and the various performance parameters are derived. (Source: Journal ...

Myriad facades of keratocanthoma: benignity vs malignancy
Publication date: Available online 19 September 2019Source: Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial ResearchAuthor(s): Pooja Sharma, Anjali Narwal, Mala KambojAbstractKeratoacanthoma (KA) is a self- limiting benign epithelial neoplasm. It occurs predominantly on sun- exposed areas of the body and is believed to arise from hair follicle. It shows a unique behavior in being clinically benign and microscopically malignant. Earlier it was considered as a pseudomalignant lesion but now it is believed to be pseudobenign in nature. The most common concern is related to its nosological position at the border of malignancy and ben...

The Second Mesiobuccal Canal in Three-rooted Maxillary First Molar of Karnataka Indian Sub-populations: A Cone-beam Computed Tomography Study.
CONCLUSIONThere is a high probability of finding MB2 canal in Indian patients. The access cavity must be modified from a triangular shape to rhomboid shape. Troughingmesiopaltally (about 2.5mm palatally and 1mm mesially) from MB1 to a depth of about 2mm from the floor of pulp chamber may be necessary for locating MB2 canal.

Patient's oral health-related quality of life and satisfaction with implant supported overdentures -a systematic review
ConclusionRetention, stability, comfort, speech and chewing efficiency improved drastically with IODs, with enhanced patient's satisfaction and a better OHRQoL. Patients reported more satisfaction and OHRQoL with mandibular IOD when compared CCDs. (Source: Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research)

Efficacy of Platelet Rich Fibrin Versus Chitosan as A Hemostatic Agent Following Dental Extraction in Patients on Antiplatelet Therapy.
ConclusionIn this study, Chitosan hydrogel dressing thus proved to be a superior hemostatic agent compared to PRF gel, that significantly shortens the clotting time following dental extraction in patients under antiplatelet therapy. But, PRF gel has superior wound healing properties than Chitosan with less postoperative pain following minor oral surgical procedures under local anesthesia.

Scan time, reliability and accuracy of craniofacial measurements using a 3D light scanner
ConclusionsCraniofacial measurements obtained with scanner showed excellent reliability and accuracy, which qualifies this method for clinical and scientific use. Accuracy is improved when the points were previously marked on face. However, the time needed to obtain measurements is greater than about 4 min for the direct method.
