Article Synopsis
- This study examined how static and dynamic conditions impact the solubility of three endodontic sealers: AH Plus, Bio-C Sealer, and EndoSequence BC.
- The research involved creating 150 specimens, storing them in distilled water or subjecting them to thermocycling, and then measuring weight loss to determine solubility.
- Results indicated that AH Plus had the lowest solubility while dynamic conditions significantly increased solubility across all sealers, potentially affecting long-term treatment effectiveness.
Exploring the impact of type II diabetes mellitus on voice quality.

Purpose: This cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the potential of voice analysis as a prescreening tool for type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) by examining the differences in voice recordings between non-diabetic and T2DM participants.
Methods: 60 participants diagnosed as non-diabetic (n = 30) or T2DM (n = 30) were recruited on the basis of specific inclusion and exclusion criteria in Iran between February 2020 and September 2023. Participants were matched according to their year of birth and then placed into six age categories.
Introduction: This study was performed to evaluate the effects of varying brushing times on the dental plaque-removal efficacy of a power toothbrush to determine the optimal length of time required to brush the teeth.
Methods: A typodont with 32 teeth was divided into four quadrants and further divided into four zones each (two teeth per zone). Using a robotic arm, toothbrushing was performed over eight different brushing times (0, 60, 120, 180, 240, 300, 360, and 420 s) to remove the artificial plaque applied on the labial surface of the teeth in occlusion.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence and association of dental anomalies with different types of malocclusions and facial patterns.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, the records of patients referred to the Orthodontics Department at 12-20 years of age were collected. The patients were classified into four types of malocclusion: Cl I, Cl II div 1, Cl II div 2, and Cl III, and three types of facial patterns: normal, long, and short.
