Objectives: Intraoral periapical radiographic techniques are mandatory exercises taught to undergraduate students during their training.

To address this, a custom-designed pointed laser light (CDPLL) was fabricated and attached to the X-ray cone.

This includes children with intersex traits undergoing 'normalisation' surgeries and those with anatomically normative genitalia, such as female genital cutting or male circumcision.

Purpose: While previous studies have investigated the adverse effects of hyper-competitiveness on individual development, research addressing its underlying causes from a family systems perspective remains relatively scarce. This study provides a comprehensive, longitudinal analysis of how the father hunger impacts adolescent hyper-competitiveness, thoroughly investigating the roles of basic psychological needs satisfaction and mother-child attachment within the broad context of family dynamics.
Methods: We employ Father Presence Theory, Attachment Theory and Basic Psychological Needs Theory as our theoretical frameworks.
