Objective: The aim: Is an adaptation, determination of psychometric properties, and approbation of the use of COHIP-SF 19 for the needs of dental public health in the Ukrainian sample of children and teenagers.
Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: A cross-sectional validation study was conducted on a sample of 236 Ukrainian children aged 6 to 18. The psychometric indicators of the questionnaire were evaluated; analysis of the reliability and internal structure of the methodology based on correlation and factor analysis, calculation of Chronbach's alpha; reliability of re-testing (Intraclass Correlation Coefficient); assessment of convergent and discriminant validity (Mann-Whitney U test, ROC analysis, and correlation analysis). STATISTICA 6.1 (StatSoftInc., № AGAR909E415822FA) was used to analyze the results. The ethics of the study was confirmed by the conclusion of the relevant commission.
Results: Results: After cultural direct and reverse translation of the original version, the Ukrainian version of COHIP-SF 19 UK was obtained. The internal consistency of the subscales and COHIP-SF 19 UK was generally sufficient (Cronbach's alpha is greater than 0.7). Sufficient reliability of retesting, convergent and discriminant validity of the methodology was proved. The presence of a correlation between COHIP-SF 19 UK indicators and self-assessment of children's health and quality of life was determined.
Conclusion: Conclusions: The study proved that COHIP-SF 19 UK is a reliable valid method for assessing the quality of life-related to oral health among Ukrainian children and adolescents, and its good psychometric properties are sufficient for research in the field of dental public health.

Background: Celiac disease (CD) is a systemic disorder characterized by an enteropathy of highly variable clinical expression, in which the relationship with oral pathology has not yet been fully elucidated. We aimed to update the current knowledge on oral manifestations in CD, to identify evidence gaps and to point out future research lines.

Fluoride (F), as a natural element found in a wide range of sources such as water and certain foods, has been proven to be beneficial in preventing dental caries, but concerns have been raised regarding its potential deleterious effects on overall health. Sodium fluoride (NaF), another form of F, has the ability to accumulate in reproductive organs and interfere with hormonal regulation and oxidative stress pathways, contributing to reproductive toxicity. While the exact mechanisms of F-induced reproductive toxicity are not fully understood, this review aims to elucidate the mechanisms involved in testicular and ovarian injury.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the osteogenic performance of allograft particulate bone and cortical bone blocks combined with xenograft under bovine pericardium membranes, for treating different degrees of labial bone defects in the aesthetic zone.
Materials And Methods: Twenty-four patients with bone defects were divided into two groups based on defect severity (Terheyden 1/4 and 2/4 groups). The Terheyden 1/4 group received granular bone grafts alone, while the Terheyden 2/4 group received cortical bone blocks combined with granular bone grafts.

Background: Chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) persists beyond the expected healing period after surgery, imposing a substantial burden on overall patient well-being. Unfortunately, CPSP often remains underdiagnosed and undertreated. To better understand the mechanism of CPSP development, we aimed to identify genetic variants associated with CPSP.
