Objective: To investigate the effect and clinical value of magnetic attachments in oral restoration.
Methods: Seventy-two cases of dental defects treated in Haishu District Stomatological Hospital from April 2018 to October 2019 were selected for retrospective analysis, of which 36 cases were treated with routine oral restoration (control group) and 34 cases with magnetic attachments (research group). The clinical efficacy, adverse reactions, masticatory efficiency and fixation force were compared between the two groups, and the treatment satisfaction was investigated at discharge. Subsequently, a one-year follow-up survey was conducted on the patients. The probing depth (PD) and alveolar bone height were re-examined at 6-month intervals, and the sulcus bleeding index (SBI), tooth loosening and plaque index (PLI) were recorded.
Results: Compared with the control group, the total effective rate was higher in the research group, and the incidence of adverse reactions was lower (P<0.05). After the restoration treatment, the masticatory efficiency, fixation force, comfort and aesthetic outcome in the research group were higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The follow-up results showed that the SBI, PD, PLI and tooth loosening rate of the research group were lower while the alveolar bone height were higher, versus the control group (all P<0.05).
Conclusions: Magnetic attachments can significantly improve the effect and safety of dental restoration as well as the masticatory efficiency, fixation, and periodontal rehabilitation of patients, which fully illustrates the clinical application value of magnetic attachments.

Age determination by measurement of pulp volume of canine teeth in patients with cleft lip and palate: a retrospective study.
Oral Radiol
January 2025
Faculty of Dentistry, Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Radiology, Istanbul University, Istanbul, Turkey.
Objectives: This study evaluates the potential of pulp volume/total tooth-volume measurements of canine teeth in relation to chronologic age in patients with cleft lip and palate (CLP). The significance of this study lies in its exploration of the usability of these measurements for age determination in CLP patients, providing a novel perspective to the existing literature.
Methods: Cone beam computed tomography images of 33 patients (16 females, 17 males) with unilateral CLP aged 14-45 years and 33 age- and sex-matched healthy individuals (16 females, 17 males) were retrospectively evaluated.
Fully guided system for position-predictable autotransplantation of teeth: A randomized clinical trial.
Int Endod J
January 2025
Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Guangdong Engineering Research Center of Oral Restoration and Reconstruction Guangzhou Key Laboratory of Basic and Applied Research of Oral Regenerative Medicine, Affiliated Stomatology Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University, Guangzhou, China.
Aim: Autotransplantation of teeth (ATT) is a viable biological method for addressing dental defects. The objective was to achieve occlusal reconstruction-orientated ATT to enhance functionality and obtain optimal location and adjacency. This study proposes a new concept of a guide (a fully guided system) to achieve position-predictable ATT.

Department of Surgical Sciences, C.I.R. Dental School, University of Turin, Turin, Italy.
Aim: To test a BiO-Optimizing Site Targeted (BOOST) approach to periodontal regeneration by the adjunctive use of locally delivered doxycycline (DOX) 2 weeks prior to minimally invasive surgery in terms of clinical and radiographic outcomes at 1 year.
Methods: For this randomized clinical trial, stage III/IV periodontitis patients presenting sites with intrabony defects and bleeding on probing (BoP+) after steps 1-2 of periodontal treatment were included. Sites were treated via subgingival instrumentation with or without a BOOST approach by local DOX.
Successful Management of Palatal Developmental Groove-Associated Periodontal Defect Using Palatal Access Flap and Odontoradiculoplasty: A Case Report.

Department of Surgical Sciences, Division of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics, School of Dental Medicine, University of Cagliari, Cagliari, Italy.
This case report discusses the successful management of a deep palatal developmental groove associated with Stage III generalized Grade C periodontitis. Despite prior nonsurgical periodontal therapy, the disease progressed rapidly, necessitating further intervention. A comprehensive evaluation revealed generalized periodontitis with localized tooth-related predisposing factor due to a developmental groove in the vital upper left lateral incisor.

Department of Gnathology, San Paolo Dental Building, University of Milan, Milan, Italy.
Aims: To verify the possible association between the stomatognathic and the visual system by analyzing the effects that different mandibular postures may have on the accommodative capacity and ocular convergence and by assessing whether temporomandibular disorders (TMD) can influence visual abilities.
Materials And Methods: A case-control study was performed during a 1-year period on a sample of 100 subjects (50 cases and 50 controls). The subjects underwent a gnathological examination, and two visual tests were performed in three different jaw positions: maximum intercuspation, resting position, and open mouth.
