Does Ankyloglossia Surgery Promote Normal Facial Development? A Systematic Review.
J Clin Med
December 2024
The Department of Dentofacial Orthopaedics and Orthodontic, Wroclaw Medical University, 50-425 Wroclaw, Poland.
Ankyloglossia is a congenital, abnormally short, thickened, or tight lingual frenulum that restricts tongue mobility, which may impair the development of the lower face morphology, namely the occlusion and skeleton. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether and how the lingual frenotomy benefits the occlusion and lower face skeleton development. The authors, independently and in duplication, performed searches of PubMed, Cochrane Library, Medline, Web of Science, and Embase, introducing the following keywords: tongue tie, ankyloglossia, and short lingual frenum/frenulum, combined with malocclusion, lower face skeleton, and hyoid bone.

Sleep Medicine Division, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Stanford University, School of Medicine, Redwood City, California, USA.
Purpose: This narrative review aims to elucidate the anatomical features of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in children. By identifying key structures and intervening proactively, we seek to alter craniofacial growth patterns and improve functional outcomes for SDB children.
Methods: The literature on pediatric sleep-disordered breathing (PSDB), pediatric obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), anatomical predispositions, and the relationship between skeletal deformity and PSDB was examined using PubMed and Google Scholar databases, covering studies from 2006 to 2024.
Developmental studies of the sublingual and mandibular salivary glands in Japanese quails (Coturinx coturinx japonica).
BMC Vet Res
November 2024
Department of Anatomy and Embryology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Assiut University, Assiut, Egypt.
Article Synopsis
- The Japanese quail has been significant to humans since the 12th century, known for its high egg production, quality low-fat meat, and ease of management, making it valuable in both industry and research.
- A study focused on the development of the oropharyngeal salivary glands in Japanese quails, examining embryos and chicks at various ages using histological and electron microscopy techniques.
- Key findings included the early formation of sublingual and mandibular glands, which developed into mucous glands after hatching, playing important roles in food processing and moisture retention during feeding.
Preventive medicine in obstructive sleep apnea-a systematic review and a call to action.
Sleep
December 2024
Otorhinolaryngology Department, Hospital Quironsalud Marbella, Marbella, Spain.
Study Objectives: The purpose of this systematic review is to evaluate the modifiable risk factors associated with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and analyze extant publications solely focused on prevention of the disease.
Methods: Studies focused on prevention strategies for OSA and modifiable risk factors were eligible for inclusion. A detailed individual search strategy for each of the following bibliographic databases was developed: Cochrane, EMBASE, MEDLINE, PubMed, and LILACS.
Accuracy and time efficiency of conventional and digital outlining of extensions of denture foundation on preliminary casts.

June 2024
Department of Dentistry, Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil.
Purpose: The purpose of this diagnostic study was to assess the accuracy and time efficiency of a digital method to draw the denture foundation extension outline on preliminary casts compared with the conventional technique.
Materials And Methods: A total of 28 preliminary edentulous casts with no anatomical landmarks were digitized using a laboratory scanner. The outlining of the entire basal seat of the denture was performed on preliminary casts and digitized.
