Department of Orthodontics, Dentistry Faculty, Gaziantep University, Gaziantep, Turkey. Electronic address:
Introduction: This study aimed to compare the efficiency of maxillary protraction achieved through facemask treatment with either a hybrid-hyrax (HH) or an acrylic cap splint (ACS) appliance when used in conjunction with alternate rapid maxillary expansion and constriction (Alt-RAMEC) or conventional rapid maxillary expansion (RME) protocols.
Methods: This study analyzed a total of 60 patients in 4 groups of 15 patients each and treated with HH-Alt-RAMEC protocol (HH-Alt, aged 10.38 ± 1.
The Rehabilitation of Partially Edentulous Maxilla With Unilateral Zygomatic Implants: A Retrospective Study up to 23 Years Follow-Up.

Department of Dentistry, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, University of Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain.
Objectives: This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes associated with zygomatic implant (ZI) rehabilitation in partially atrophic edentulous maxillae over a mean follow-up period of more than 10.3 years.
Methods: All consecutive patients underwent ZI rehabilitation between 1999 and 2020, with a minimum follow-up period of 3 years.

Assistant Professor, Division of Prosthodontics, Louisiana State University School of Dentistry, New Orleans, LA.
Statement Of Problem: Three-dimensional (3D) printing offers an efficient method of producing occlusal devices; however, their wear resistance is poorly understood.
Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the wear resistance of flexible and rigid 3D printed occlusal device materials with milled and conventionally processed occlusal device materials.
Material And Methods: Blocks (n=8) of 3 flexible 3D printed materials (KeySplint Soft, NightGuard Flex 2, SmileGuard), 2 rigid 3D printed materials (KeySplint Hard, NightGuard Firm 2), 1 milled material (Ceramill A-Splint), 1 thermoform material (Erkoloc-Pro), 1 light-polymerized material (Eclipse Prosthetic Resin), 1 heat-polymerized material (Excel Formula Heat Cure Denture Base Material), and 1 autopolymerized material (Great Lakes Splint Resin Acrylic) were prepared and wet polished with 1200-grit SiC paper.
Infiltration of salivary proteins into dentin during erosive processes.
J Dent
January 2025
Clinic of Operative Dentistry, Periodontology and Preventive Dentistry, University Hospital, Saarland University, Building 73, 66421 Homburg Saar, Germany.
Objective: Ultrastructural analyses showed that during erosion under oral cavity conditions, dentin is infiltrated by a substrate morphologically similar to salivary proteins. This in-situ study aimed to investigate the presence of salivary proteins in demineralized dentin.
Methods: Bovine dentin specimens were attached to individual maxillary splints (n = 1 per subject and condition) and worn intraorally by four subjects for 1 min.
Long-term effects of protraction facemask combined with fixed appliance therapy in severe skeletal Class III adolescent: A case report with 5-year follow-up.

Shanghai Huaguang Dental Clinic, Shanghai, China. Electronic address:
Introduction And Importance: The decision between orthodontic camouflage therapy and orthodontic-orthognathic surgical treatment for developing skeletal Class III malocclusion presents a significant challenge for orthodontists.
Case Presentation: This case report describes the camouflage treatment of a severe skeletal Class III adolescent at the post-pubertal stage.
Clinical Discussion: Protraction facemask combined with a bonded acrylic splint expander was initially used to correct the developing skeletal Class III malocclusion.
