Implementation of a program to strengthen oral hygiene in patient with cleft deformities: a prospective randomized controlled clinical trial.

Background: Cleft lip and/or palate is the most common congenital orofacial deformity, affecting 1/800 births. A thorough review of the literature has shown that children with cleft have poorer oral hygiene and dental health than other children, with higher levels of caries in both temporary and permanent teeth and poorer periodontal health. Cleft patients are treated by a multidisciplinary team that aims to provide comprehensive care from pre- or post-natal diagnosis to early adulthood and the end of growth.

Equimolar oxygen-nitrous oxide (EMONO) in dental pediatric care: which patients achieve therapeutic effects? A French national exploratory prospective observational multicenter study.

Purpose: Equimolar oxygen-nitrous oxide mixture (EMONO) is considered as a reference for dental care in children. Completion of dental treatment has usually been used as a criterion to assess EMONO treatment. However, other patient-reported outcomes are needed.

Analyzing the Influence of Video Game and Music Engagement on Technical Skills Acquisition in Dental Students in Preclinical Phase: Protocol for a Prospective, Controlled, Longitudinal Study.

Background: The practice of dental surgery requires a few different skills, including mental rotation of an object, precision of movement with good hand-eye coordination, and speed of technical movement. Learning these different skills begins during the preclinical phase of dental student training. Moreover, playing a musical instrument or video game seems to promote the early development of these skills.

Objectivation of the Equimolar Mixture of Oxygen and Nitrous Oxide Anxiolytic Effect in Pediatric Dentistry: A Pilot Study.

Aim: EMONO is an equimolar mixture of oxygen and nitrous oxide. Studies investigating its anxiolytic effect mostly used behavioral scales for assessing anxiolysis in children during dental care. Observing this effect objectively in a pediatric population could be very interesting.

Comparing intraosseous computerized anaesthesia with inferior alveolar nerve block in the treatment of symptomatic irreversible pulpitis: A randomized controlled trial.

Aim: The aim of this study was to compare the cardiovascular effects [heart rate, oxygen saturation (SpO ) systolic and diastolic blood pressure] and the anaesthetic efficacy of intraosseous computerized anaesthesia (ICA) versus inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) in Symptomatic irreversible pulpitis (SIP).

Methodology: The study protocol was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03802305).
