The aim of this meta-analysis was to assess the analgesic efficacy and adverse effects of celecoxib compared to non-opioid drugs after third molar surgery. A search in PubMed and Google Scholar was performed to identify clinical trials, and then, the Cochrane Collaboration tool was used to assess the risk of bias for all clinical trials. Studies without any high-risk of bias were included in the statistical analysis. The data extraction included the pain intensity measured by the visual analogue scale (VAS), the number of patients using rescue analgesics and adverse effects of gastric (nausea and vomiting), and nervous (dizziness and headache) systems. Data were analyzed using the Review Manager Software 5.3 for Windows and the Risk Reduction Calculator. The visual analog scale, total pain relief, and the number of patients who needed rescue analgesics showed statistical significance. Moreover, celecoxib had a lower frequency of nausea and vomiting compared with ibuprofen. In conclusion, celecoxib was more effective than acetaminophen and ibuprofen for pain control after third molar surgery.

Perioperative changes in anxiety and comfort in third molar extraction patients sedated with midazolam.
Oral Maxillofac Surg
January 2025
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Nara Medical University, 840, Shijo-Cho, 634-8522, Kashihara, Nara, Japan.
Purpose: This study aimed to analyze changes in anxiety and comfort levels at each perioperative stage during third molar extraction under single-agent intravenous midazolam sedation, and to clarify how these conditions at each perioperative stage affect postoperative satisfaction.
Patients And Method: 115 who requested extraction of 1 ~ 4 third molars under single-agent intravenous midazolam sedation were targeted. These patients were administered a questionnaire survey one week after surgery.
Identification of the Greater Palatine Foramen, the Greater Palatine Artery, and Palatal Fibromucosa: A Cross-Sectional Ultrasonographic Clinical Study.
J Stomatol Oral Maxillofac Surg
January 2025
Professor, Department of Oral, Dental and Maxillofacial Radiology, Faculty of Dentistry, Ataturk University, Erzurum, 25240, Turkiye.
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate with ultrasonography (US) the location of GPF, the course of the GPA, and to measure palatal fibromucosa thickness.
Materials And Methods: This in vivo experiment was conducted on a group of healthy, young Turkish subjects. Using the US, the localization of the GPF, its diameter and opening type, maximum flow velocity (Vmax) and collateral branches (CB) of the GPA, and the thickness of the palatine mucosa were evaluated.
Efficacy of root canal treatment for autotransplanted third molars: a 6-Year cohort study of 167 teeth in southern China.
PeerJ
January 2025
State Key Laboratory of Oral Diseases & National Center for Stomatology & National Clinical Research Center for Oral Diseases, West China Hospital of Stomatology, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.
Background: Autogenous tooth transplantation offers significant advantages and promising success rates for replacing non-retainable teeth. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic factors, especially the impact of root canal treatment (RCT), of autotransplanted teeth in an up-to-6-year follow-up cohort of 167 teeth in Southern China.
Methods: We enrolled adult patients from the Southern Medical University-Shenzhen Stomatology Hospital between 2017 and 2023.
Bayesian network for predicting mandibular third molar extraction difficulty.
BMC Oral Health
January 2025
Sub-Institute of Public Safety Standardization, China National Institute of Standardization, No.4 Zhichun Road, Haidian District, Beijing, 100191, PR China.
Background: This study aimed to establish a model for predicting the difficulty of mandibular third molar extraction based on a Bayesian network to meet following requirements: (1) analyse the interaction of the primary risk factors; (2) output quantitative difficulty-evaluation results based on the patient's personal situation; and (3) identify key surgical points and propose surgical protocols to decrease complications.
Methods: Relevant articles were searched to identify risk factors. Clinical knowledge and experience were used to analyse the risk factors to establish the Bayesian network.
Stress-Relieving Effects of Japanese Green Tea: Evaluation Using the Molar Ratio of Caffeine and Epigallocatechin Gallate to Theanine and Arginine as an Indicator.

Tea Science Center, University of Shizuoka, 52-1 Yada, Suruga-ku, Shizuoka 422-8526, Japan.
The major components of tea leaves and their infusions were analyzed for various types of green tea available in Japan in 2022. Almost all the green teas used were from the first crop, known for their high amino acid content. The amino acids theanine and arginine in green tea have been shown to reduce stress.
