Under challenging oral environments, the overall performance of resin composites is affected by bio-aging. This study investigated the effects of saliva biofilm-induced bio-aging on the mechanical properties and microbial behavior of composites with different filler types. Microhybrid, nanohybrid, nano-filled and nano-filled flowable composites were bio-aged with saliva biofilm for 30 days.

This study aimed to investigate probable changes in titanium plates after different biofilm bio-aging processes, representing various oral status. Titanium plates with different surface treatments were used, including polish, sandblasted with large grit and acid etched (SLA), microarc oxidation (MAO), and hydroxyapatite coating (HA).

The application of artificial intelligence in medicine has gradually received attention along with its development. Many studies have shown that machine learning has a wide range of applications in stomatology, especially in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of maxillofacial cysts and tumors. This article reviews the application of machine learning in maxillofacial cyst and tumor to provide a new method for the diagnosis of oral and maxillofacial diseases.
