Understanding Dental Clinical Trainees' Knowledge and Attitudes Toward Managing Diabetic Patients: Insights From a University Dental Training Center.

Background: Dental patients with diabetes require comprehensive care to maintain their metabolic stability during dental treatments. Clinicians' understanding of diabetes symptoms and management strategies is essential for minimizing risks associated with dental procedures, especially since undiagnosed diabetic patients may also seek dental care. This study aimed to assess dental clinical trainees' knowledge and attitudes toward managing diabetic patients.

Association of High Immunohistochemical Expression of Minichromosome Maintenance 3 with Human Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma-A Preliminary Study.

Background: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) may arise from premalignant oral lesions (PMOL) in most cases. Minichromosome maintenance 3 (MCM3) is a proliferative marker that has been investigated as a potential diagnostic biomarker in the diagnosis of oral cancer.

Objectives: To evaluate the association of MCM3 expression, its clinicopathologic parameters and to identify snuff (also called naswar) as a potential risk factor for changes in MCM3 expression in PMOL and OSCC.

Exploring the Mechanisms and Association between Oral Microflora and Systemic Diseases.

The scope of dentistry is ever-changing and dynamic in all fields of dentistry including periodontal health and disease. Recent studies show that oral health and systemic health are interdependent, particularly in the way that poor oral hygiene and periodontal health affect the systemic health of an individual and vice versa. Periodontal diseases are multifactorial in nature in which the role of bacterial infections is inevitable.
