In the recent era of automation, the consolidation of artificial intelligence (AI) in dentistry has rendered transformation in oral healthcare from a hardware-centric approach to a software-centric approach, leading to enhanced efficiency and improved educational and clinical outcomes.

Objectives: The aim of this narrative overview is to extend the succinct of the major events and innovations that led to the creation of modern-day AI and dentistry and the applicability of the former in dentistry.

Thermally Stable Silicone Elastomer Composites Based on MoS@Biomass-Derived Carbon with a High Dielectric Constant and Ultralow Loss for Flexible Microwave Electronics.

With the miniaturization and integration of electronic components in wireless communication and wearable devices, the demand for low-cost flexible composites with temperature-stable high dielectric constant and low loss has substantially increased. However, such comprehensive properties are fundamentally difficult to combine for conventional conductive and ceramic composites. Here, we develop silicone elastomer (SE) composites based on hydrothermally grown MoS on tissue paper-derived cellulose carbon (CC).

Design of highly sensitive and selective ethanol sensor based on α-FeO/NbO heterostructure.

The introduction of heterostructures is a new approach in gas sensing due to their easy and quick transport of charges. Herein, facile hydrothermal and solid-state techniques are employed to synthesize an α-FeO/NbO heterostructure. The morphology, microstructure, crystallinity and surface composition of the synthesized heterostructures are investigated by scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, x-ray diffraction, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analyses.

A Potential Checkmate to Lead: Bismuth in Organometal Halide Perovskites, Structure, Properties, and Applications.

The remarkable optoelectronic properties and considerable performance of the organo lead-halide perovskites (PVKs) in various optoelectronic applications grasp tremendous scientific attention. However, the existence of the toxic lead in these compounds is threatening human health and remains a major concern in the way of their commercialization. To address this issue, numerous nontoxic alternatives have been reported.

A novel ethanol gas sensor based on α-BiMoO/CoO nanotube-decorated particles.

A novel composite based on α-BiMoO/CoO nanotube-decorated particles was successfully synthesized using a highly efficient and facile two step system using electrospinning and hydrothermal techniques. The small size CoO nanoparticles were uniformly and hydrothermally developed on the electrospun α-BiMoO nanotubes. The pure α-BiMoO nanofibers and composite based on α-BiMoO/CoO were examined using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analyses.

Development of high-performance sensor based on NiO/SnO heterostructures to study sensing properties towards various reducing gases.

In this work, we report the spontaneous formation of NiO nanoparticles-decorated onto smooth SnO nanofibers, which is an inexpensive and scalable method for yielding a high composite surface area via a simple two-step synthesis process based on electrospinning and the hydrothermal method. A Nickel Oxide proton-conducting electrolyte is deposited homogeneously over a large surface area in a transparent solution, mixed and decorated onto Tin dioxide nanofibers, as evidenced by cross sectional imaging of the electrospun nanofibers. The composite based on nanoparticle-decorated fibers enlarges the surface area of the exposed electrolyte, which fundamentally improves the overall gas sensing performance.

Core-shell ZnO@C:N hybrids derived from MOFs as long-cycling anodes for lithium ion batteries.

A core-shell hybrid of ZnO and nitrogen-doped carbon (ZnO@C:N) is designed as a long-cycling anode for LIBs. The ZnO@C:N hybrid has a high initial capacity of 1116 mA h g-1 and a reversible capacity of 608 mA h g-1 after 500 cycles at 0.1 A g-1.

FeSe/carbon nanotube hybrid lithium-ion battery for harvesting energy from triboelectric nanogenerators.

FeSe2-carbon nanotube (FeSe2-CNT) hybrid microspheres are investigated as anode materials for lithium ion batteries (LIBs), exhibiting a high specific capacity of 571.2 mA h g-1 at 0.5 A g-1 with excellent rate performance and cycling stability.

Two-Dimensional SnSe /CNTs Hybrid Nanostructures as Anode Materials for High-Performance Lithium-Ion Batteries.

Tin diselenide (SnSe ), as an anode material, has outstanding potential for use in advanced lithium-ion batteries. However, like other tin-based anodes, SnSe suffers from poor cycle life and low rate capability due to large volume expansion during the repeated Li insertion/de-insertion process. This work reports an effective and easy strategy to combine SnSe and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to form a SnSe /CNTs hybrid nanostructure.

A Case Of Metabolic Syndrome.

This case report illustrates a 40-year-old woman who presented with chest discomfort that was subsequently diagnosed to have metabolic syndrome. Metabolic syndrome is a common condition associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. As primary care providers, we should be detect this condition early, intervene and prevent appropriately before complications occur.
