Patients with periodontitis have higher risk of alveolar bone loss when seek for orthodontic therapy. Inflammation and osteogenesis are key factors in alveolar bone destruction in periodontitis and orthodontic tooth movement (OTM). Here we evaluated the effects of irisin on alveolar bone destruction in rats with periodontitis and OTM. We isolated and cultured human periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs). Irisin was administrated to PDLSCs. Cell proliferations, osteogenic differentiation, expression of RUNX2 and ALP, and the expression of OPG and RANKL were measured. We induced periodontitis and OTM in rats and treated rats with irisin. The alveolar bone loss, inflammatory cytokine levels, and expression of OPG and RANKL in gingival tissues were measured. Irisin promoted the cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs. Irisin elevated the expression of RUNX2, ALP, and OPG while decreased the expression of RANKL in PDLSCs. Irisin ameliorated the alveolar bone loss, suppressed cytokine levels, and increased OPG/RANKL expression ratio in rat with periodontitis and orthodontic tooth movement. Irisin prevented alveolar bone destruction during OTM in rats with periodontitis.

Background: Unilateral cleft lip secondary nasal deformities are common and require surgical correction frequently. The nasal dome on the cleft side is depressed, and the nasal ala is in an extended and flattened position compared with the noncleft side. In addition, the nasal septum is deviated into the cleft nostril.

Background: It has been outlined that LTM (Lower third molar) extracted from patients in which grinding, cleaning, sterilization & demineralization prove to be highly effective as graft material for filling the alveolar socket of the very same patient. These investigations aim to assess the efficiency of ADDM (Autogenous Demineralized Dentin Matrix) graft in third molar extraction sockets.
Purpose: To check the effectiveness of ADDM as graft material in extraction socket by evaluating pain, swelling, trismus, PD (Probing Depth) and bone density.

Background: Gingival recession defects (GRDs) pose functional and esthetic concerns and may be associated with unfavorable tooth positions. Surgically facilitated orthodontic treatment (SFOT) with clear aligners can be a valuable option for adults with severe malocclusion and GRDs.
Methods: A 28-year-old male presented with severe dental crowding, Class III dental malocclusion, localized tooth crossbites, and tapered maxillary arch.

Background: The histologic classification of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) as alveolar (aRMS) or embryonal (eRMS) is of prognostic importance, with the aRMS being associated with a worse outcome. Specific gene fusions (PAX3/7::FOXO1) found in the majority of aRMS have been recognized as markers associated with poor prognosis and are included in current risk stratification instead of histologic subtypes in localized disease. In metastatic disease, the independent prognostic significance of fusion status has not been definitively established.

This case report emphasizes the complexities involved in dental implant placement within the anterior esthetic zone, focusing on the integration of advanced surgical techniques and meticulous prosthetic design for optimal esthetic and functional results. A 28-year-old male presented with the absence of the upper left central incisor, which had been extracted 5 years prior due to fracture. Clinical and radiographic assessments indicated normal alveolar bone levels; however, the esthetic demands required a specialized approach.
