Effect of Er:YAG Laser Irradiation on Preventing Enamel Caries: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Caries is a global health problem, and its prevention has become a main goal of modern dentistry. Laser irradiation is believed to have potential in preventing dental caries. The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate whether Er:YAG laser irradiation has the potential to prevent enamel caries.

Molar distalization in orthodontics: a bibliometric analysis.

Objectives: The study endeavors to undertake a bibliometric analysis on molar distalization, with the objective of illuminating its evolutionary trajectory, current status, and prognosticating future research hotspots and trends.

Material And Methods: A comprehensive exploration of the literature on molar distalization was carried out by conducting a search in the Web of Science (WOS) core database of the University of Hong Kong Electronic Library. The search for topic terms employed included "molar distalization," "molar distalisation," "move molar distally," "molar distal movement," and "molar backwards.

Synergistic antibacterial mechanism of silver-copper bimetallic nanoparticles.

The excessive use of antibiotics in clinical settings has resulted in the rapid expansion, evolution, and development of bacterial and microorganism resistance. It causes a significant challenge to the medical community. Therefore, it is important to develop new antibacterial materials that could replace traditional antibiotics.

Evolution, current status, and future trends of maxillary skeletal expansion: a bibliometric analysis.

Objectives: The study aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis on maxillary skeletal expansion to elucidate the evolution and current status and predict future research hotspots and trends.

Material And Methods: A search was conducted in the Web of Science Core Collection at the University of Hong Kong's electronic library using the query "(TS = maxillary expansion) AND (TS = skeletal expansion)." The resulting literature data were imported into CiteSpace 6.

The effect of the Er,Cr:YSGG laser combined casein phosphopeptide amorphous calcium phosphate for enamel remineralisation: a systematic review and meta-analysis of in vitro studies.

The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis of in vitro studies was to evaluate the effect of the 2780 nm Er,Cr:YSGG laser combined with casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) for enamel remineralisation. The electronic PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and EMBASE databases were searched, with no language or date restrictions, up to January 2023. Two reviewers independently performed research information extraction and quality assessment.

Maxillary Protraction: A Bibliometric Analysis.

Objectives: The aim of this analysis was to investigate the historical development, current status, and research hot spots related to maxillary protraction in the treatment of maxillary hypoplasia.

Methods: The term "TS = maxillary protraction" was used to search for articles in the Web of Science Core Collection at the library of Capital Medical University. The results were analysed using CiteSpace6.
