Impact of Digital Workflow Integration on Fixed Prosthodontics: A Review of Advances and Clinical Outcomes.

The field of prosthodontics has seen substantial advancements with the integration of digital workflows, which have revolutionized traditional clinical practices. These digital technologies, including intraoral scanners (IOS), computer-aided design (CAD), and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), have enhanced the precision, efficiency, and overall quality of prosthetic restorations. This review explores the clinical outcomes of adopting digital workflows in prosthodontics, with a focus on their impact on accuracy, time efficiency, and patient satisfaction.

Noninvasive evaluation of the correlation between thickness of the buccal bone and attached gingiva of maxillary premolars.

Objective: To noninvasively determine the relationship between the thickness of the buccal bone and attached gingiva of the maxillary premolars.

Material And Methods: 128 maxillary premolars in 32 patients were assessed for measurement of buccal bone thickness and corresponding attached gingival thickness at 3 mm apical to cemento-enamel junction. Buccal bone thickness was measured on cone-beam computed tomography scans and attached gingival thickness by ultrasound unit.

A Cohort Study of the Patterns of Third Molar Impaction in Panoramic Radiographs in Saudi Population.

Objectives: To evaluate the epidemiological patterns of third molar impaction in a cohort of patients living in the north of Saudi Arabia.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective cohort study comprised of analysing 2550 Orthopantomograms (OPGs) belonging to patients who attended Aljouf University College of Dentistry between September 2013 and December 2015. OPGs were examined to determine the frequency of third molar impaction, their levels of eruption and angulations.
