Stress experienced by dental students performing clinical training in different dental disciplines: a cross-sectional study.

Objectives: To assess the stress level, the impact of stress factors, and discrepancies between fourth- and fifth-year undergraduate clinical students at the University of Jordan.

Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in the academic year 2022/2023. The study group included fourth- and fifth-year dental students at the University of Jordan (n = 382) who were asked to voluntarily fill in an online dental environment stress (DES) questionnaire.

Electrical stimulation to clinically identify position of the lingual nerve: results of 50 subjects with reliability and correlation with MRI.

Purpose: Recently we described mapping of the lingual nerve clinically in patients using electrical nerve stimulation. This paper reports results of a larger study with inter- and intra-observer reliability and comparison with positional measurements from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Methods: In 50 healthy participants, measurements were taken when subjects felt a tingling sensation in the tongue induced by a stimulation probe over the lingual nerve.

The Surgical Management of External Cervical Resorption: A Retrospective Observational Study of Treatment Outcomes and Classifications.

Introduction: The aims of this study were to assess the survival and clinical success of patients with teeth with external cervical resorption (ECR) who underwent surgical repair, to assess the reliability of using 2 different classification systems for ECR (Heithersay 2-dimensional classification and Patel 3-dimensional classification), and to identify if a 3-dimensional classification is a viable alternative.

Methods: A retrospective study was performed in a teaching dental hospital in England. The inclusion criteria were limited to patients who underwent surgical management of ECR between 2015 and 2018.
