Use of Computer Digital Techniques and Modern Materials in Dental Technology in Restoration: A Caries-Damaged Smile in a Teenage Patient.

Prosthodontic treatment of developmental age patients presents a significant challenge to the dentist. The growth and development of the stomatognathic system must be considered in treatment planning. Temporary prosthetic restorations must be regularly inspected and recemented, and final prosthetic restoration should not be delivered until the growth of the body is complete.

Evaluation of the Second Premolar's Bud Position Using Computer Image Analysis and Neural Modelling Methods.

Panoramic radiograph is a universally used diagnostic method in dentistry for identifying various dental anomalies and assessing developmental stages of the dentition. The second premolar is the tooth with the highest number of developmental abnormalities. The purpose of this study was to generate neural models for assessing the position of the bud of the second premolar tooth based on analysis of tooth-bone indicators of other teeth.

Eruption Pattern of Permanent Canines and Premolars in Polish Children.

Eruption is a complex and dynamic process determined by both genetic and epigenetic factors. This process involves a number of changes in the tissues surrounding the tooth and in tooth morphology. The aim of this study was to analyze the eruption sequence of permanent canines and premolars on the basis of pantomographic images.

Mechanical Properties of 3D Printed Orthodontic Retainers.

Unlabelled: Orthodontic retention is the final important stage of orthodontic treatment, the aim of which is to consolidate the functional and aesthetic position of teeth. Among adults, fixed retainers made of different types of wires are the most common. The aim of this study was to analyse the mechanical properties of a new generation of fixed orthodontic retainers-printed by 3D printers.

Robust Estimation of the Chronological Age of Children and Adolescents Using Tooth Geometry Indicators and POD-GP.

Determining the chronological age of children or adolescents is becoming an extremely necessary and important issue. Correct age-assessment methods are especially important in the process of international adoption and in the case of immigrants without valid documents confirming their identity. It is well known that traditional, analog methods widely used in clinical evaluation are burdened with a high error rate and are characterized by low accuracy.

Deep Learning Neural Modelling as a Precise Method in the Assessment of the Chronological Age of Children and Adolescents Using Tooth and Bone Parameters.

Dental age is one of the most reliable methods for determining a patient's age. The timing of teething, the period of tooth replacement, or the degree of tooth attrition is an important diagnostic factor in the assessment of an individual's developmental age. It is used in orthodontics, pediatric dentistry, endocrinology, forensic medicine, and pathomorphology, but also in scenarios regarding international adoptions and illegal immigrants.

Tooth and Bone Parameters in the Assessment of the Chronological Age of Children and Adolescents Using Neural Modelling Methods.

The analog methods used in the clinical assessment of the patient's chronological age are subjective and characterized by low accuracy. When using those methods, there is a noticeable discrepancy between the chronological age and the age estimated based on relevant scientific studies. Innovations in the field of information technology are increasingly used in medicine, with particular emphasis on artificial intelligence methods.

Evaluation of selected dietary behaviours of students according to gender and nutritional knowledge.

Introduction: Nutrition is a factor influencing physical and mental fitness. In this study we examine the lifestyle of university students and its impact on nutritional errors.

Objective: To evaluate the dietary behaviours of students taking into account gender and nutritional knowledge.

The effect of girls attitudes towards the health benefits of food on selected dietary characteristics. The GEBahealth Project.

Background: Dietary habits are formed at an early age and to a large extent they affect such nutritional behaviour in adulthood. Mothers in particular, influence family nutrition. In this respect, their knowledge, attitudes and behaviour about nutrition are responsible for the schooling of future generations.
