Team-based learning (TBL) has been widely applied and evaluated to produce better student outcomes. TBL has been introduced into the clinical pharmacology section of the endodontics clinical course at the School of Stomatology, Wuhan University since 2021. Here, the teaching experience in this course was summarized. The TBL course consisted of a knowledge assignment, intrateam and interteam discussion, practicing, evaluation, cases discussion and examination. The topics of the TBL class included cavity preparation and filling for treatment of dental caries, disinfection, and shaping and filling of root canal for root canal therapy. A total of 64 students participated in the TBL course. The students completed course work and hands-on practice to the satisfaction of the instructor. Furthermore, most participants held positive attitudes toward the TBL course because TBL provided the opportunity for teamwork to enable them to acquire and understand the therapeutic drug and material more quickly and made them more confident in the following practice. Our experience suggested that the application of the TBL contributed to the authentic practice of the endodontics clinical course.

Introduction: The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in healthcare is revolutionizing the workflows of healthcare professionals, enabling faster and more accurate patient treatment. This study aims to evaluate the accuracy of responses provided by different AI chatbots to questions that dentists might ask regarding regenerative endodontic treatment (RET), a procedure that shows promising biological healing potential.
Methods: A total of 23 questions related to RET procedures were developed based on the American Association of Endodontists (AAE) 2022 guidelines.

Objectives: Comparative evaluation of indirect pulp therapy (IPT) with silver diamine fluoride (SDF), Type VII glass ionomer cement (GIC), and calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) in young permanent molars.
Materials And Methods: This was randomized controlled trial, in which 45 children with 60 young permanent first molars were allocated as; Group A: IPT with SDF, Group B: Type VII GIC, and Group C: Ca(OH)2. Clinical and radiographic evaluation and comparison was done at baseline, 3, 6, 12 months.

Aim: This study aimed to explore the possible bidirectional interrelations between fructose-induced metabolic syndrome (MS) and apical periodontitis (AP).
Methodology: Twenty-eight male Wistar rats were distributed into four groups (n = 7, per group): Control (C), AP, Fructose Consumption (FRUT) and Fructose Consumption and AP (FRUT+AP). The rats in groups C and AP received filtered water, while those in groups FRUT and FRUT+AP received a 20% fructose solution mixed with water to induce MS.
