Diagnostic accuracy of salivary hemoglobin, lactate dehydrogenase and Interleukin-6 to determine chronic periodontitis and tooth loss in type 2 diabetics.

Background: Salivary Hemoglobin (SH) has emerged as the mainstay non-invasive and a practicable screening method for Chronic Periodontitis. Current research aims to comprehensively assess the diagnostic value of Salivary Hb (SH) in comparison with Salivary IL-6 (SIL-6) and levels of Salivary lactate dehydrogenase enzyme (SLDH) amongst Type II Diabetes subjects having Chronic Periodontitis (CP) and associated tooth loss.

Materials And Methods: In this cross-sectional comparative investigation, 240 individuals with at least 15 remaining teeth, ranging in age from 30 to 70, were chosen and Group I controls were defined as follows: healthy (HbA1c levels ≤6.

Applications of artificial intelligence in the field of oral and maxillofacial pathology: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Since AI algorithms can analyze patient data, medical records, and imaging results to suggest treatment plans and predict outcomes, they have the potential to support pathologists and clinicians in the diagnosis and treatment of oral and maxillofacial pathologies, just like every other area of life in which it is being used. The goal of the current study was to examine all of the trends being investigated in the area of oral and maxillofacial pathology where AI has been possibly involved in helping practitioners.

Methods: We started by defining the important terms in our investigation's subject matter.

Gene sequencing applications to combat oral-cavity related disorders: a systematic review with meta-analysis.

Gene sequencing (GS) has numerous applications in combatting oral-cavity related disorders, including identifying genetic risk factors for diseases, developing targeted therapies, and improving diagnostic methods. It can help identify specific genetic mutations or variations that increase the risk of developing oral-cavity related disorders, such as oral cancer, periodontal disease, and cleft lip and palate. By the means of the following investigation, our primary objective was to assess the impact of GS technique in diagnosing and potentially treating diseases of the oral cavity by the means of a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Patient satisfaction in prosthodontic treatment: multidimensional paradigm.

A number of different factors contribute to an efficient clinical outcome in prosthetic dentistry. Differences between patient's and prosthodontist's perception of treatment display great variability. Patient satisfaction in prosthetic dentistry is a multidimensional concept as is patient's perception of dental care.
