Unlabelled: Process of the mesialization of molars in the lower jaw is long-time, moreover the molars are not frequently bodily translation. Conduction of the corticotomy reduce to regional acceleration phenomen that permit to accelerate the tooth movement avoiding negative inclination.
Purpose: To improve the effectiveness of the treatment using piezocorticotomy and miniscrew anchorage approach in cases of third and second molar mesialization when first molar is missing.
Material And Methods: 24 patients (10 men/14 women) aged 25-40 years with a fixed vestibular braces and the absence of molars on the lower jaw. Cone-beam computed tomography was performed before and after orthodontic treatment, as well as immediately after the piezokortikotomy (79 Cone-beam computed tomography). Miniscrews was placed in the area between roots of the first and second premolars (27 miniscrews) and surgical manipulations was performed using device VarioSurg (NSK, Japan). Depending on width of the alveolar ridge piezocorticotomy was performed (16 piezocorticotomies) or splitting using piezosurgery approach (11 splitting).
Results: Mesialization speed of molars in patients with support of piezocorticotomy is equal to 1.1±0.1 mm/mo that is higher than in patients without surgery only with miniscrew approach (0.33±0.006 mm/mo Roberts et al, 1996). Mesialization speed of molars in patients with support of splitting is equal to 1.6±0.15 mm/mo. However, we observed that after corticotomies surgery, the speed was increased only within the first 4.5 months, after splitting, the speed was increased only withing 2.5 months, after that period the speed gradually decreases. Bone density after surgery decreased, but at the end of treatment gradually restored.
Conclusion: Piezo surgery with corticotomies is an effective method to accelerate the mesialization of molars in the lower jaw, that conduce to reduction duration the treatement and to allow to almost bodily translation of the molars.

Dental age estimation, as an important part of forensic anthropology, has a wide range of applications for its results in legal practice. Given the lowered legal age for criminal responsibility in China and the increasing juvenile delinquency, we establish a morphological database targeting the second (M2) and third molars (M3) of the Southern Chinese population. Full mouth orthopantomography from 1486 individuals aged 8.

Objectives: Intraoral periapical radiographic techniques are mandatory exercises taught to undergraduate students during their training. The key challenges encountered while teaching the bisecting angle technique (BAT) include correctly positioning the X-ray cone and adjusting the central X-ray beam to the tooth of interest. To address this, a custom-designed pointed laser light (CDPLL) was fabricated and attached to the X-ray cone.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) treatment is often limited by adverse reactions and high recurrence rates, highlighting the need for safer, more effective therapies. Citrus medica 'Fingered' (C. medica), known for its anti-inflammatory properties, remains underexplored, particularly its polysaccharide components.

Interaction of a novel dihydroxy dibenzoazacrown (HDTC) with various surfactants of different charges, for example, anionic (sodium dodecylsulfate, SDS), cationic (dodecyl trimethylammonium bromide, DTAB), cationic gemini (butanediyl-1,4-bis(dimethylcetylammonium bromide), 16-4-16), ionic liquid (1-hexadecyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride, CMImCl), and nonionic (polyoxyethylene sorbitan monostearate, Tween-60), has been investigated at a widespread range of surfactant concentrations (including premicellar, micellar, and postmicellar regime) in 15% (v/v) EtOH medium at room temperature. Several experimental techniques, viz., tensiometry, UV-vis spectroscopy, and steady-state fluorimetry, are implemented to explicate these interactions.

Statement Of The Problem: Previous longitudinal studies have found that patients with shortened dental arches (SDA) have a higher risk of long-term tooth loss than complete dental arch (CDA). However, the difference between SDA and CDA concerning oral function has yet to be demonstrated.
Purpose: We aimed to clarify the influence of molar occlusal support on oral function in SDA and CDA participants cross-sectionally and longitudinally.
