Orthodontic management of severe inversely impacted maxillary central incisors: a case series.

Background: Abnormal positioning and dislocation of the central incisor can disturb tooth eruption. Generally, inversely impacted maxillary central incisors do not erupt naturally. Performing traction and applied extrusion of an inversely impacted maxillary central incisor with a high inclination angle of the crown is challenging.

The Retention Effect of Resin-Based Desensitizing Agents on Hypersensitivity-A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Recently, the development of dental materials has increased the availability of various hyperesthesia desensitizers. However, there are no studies on the duration of retreatment in terms of adherence rates. Thus, the adhesion rates of resin-based desensitizers were investigated.

Evaluation of a Hypersensitivity Inhibitor Containing a Novel Monomer That Induces Remineralization-A Case Series in Pediatric Patients.

Background: Recently, tooth deformities have been frequently encountered by pediatric dentists. Severe enamel hypomineralization sometimes induces pain such as hyperesthesia, but composite resin restoration is difficult because it often detaches without any cavity preparation. Resin-based hypersensitivity inhibitors for tooth physically seal the dentinal tubules.

Homeobox A5 and C10 genes modulate adaptation of brown adipose tissue during exercise training in juvenile rats.

New Findings: What is the central question of this study? Exercise can stimulate brown adipose tissue (BAT) with subsequent increase in uncoupling protein 1 expression and mitochondrial biogenesis. In that case, do BAT-specific Hox genes modify BAT functioning and cause uncoupling protein expression changes due to exercise? What is the main finding and its importance? Exercise enhanced brown adipocyte markers, with significant upregulation of HoxA5 and downregulation of HoxC10 mRNA expression in rat BAT. HoxA5 and HoxC10 are thus likely to play distinct roles in exercise-induced changes in BAT markers during the early postnatal period.
