The nanosciences have recently emerged as a transformative force in dentistry and periodontics, offering fresh strategies to further the development of dental care. This paper provides a concise summary of the effect of nanoparticles, their categorisation, several methods of action, and various dental uses. This review discusses the properties of nanoparticles that lend to their use in dentistry and traces the history of the growth and advancement of nanotechnology in this area, nanomaterials' role in improving dental restorations' durability, aesthetics, and overall dental health by drawing on particular examples from restorative dentistry, prosthodontics, cosmetic dentistry, and general dentistry. In addition, the advancement of nanosciences has made periodontal regeneration easier, which has resulted in more accurate forecasting of its effects. Issues relating to safety, finances, and regulations imposed by the government have been fixed. It is encouraged that research be conducted into the full potential of nanosciences in dentistry and periodontics as a method of realising the field's bright future. Applications of nanotechnology in dentistry and periodontics can be broadly discussed under the prevention, detection, and treatment modalities.

Weighing up the potential of "superfoods" compounds of green tea or turmeric as adjuncts in comparison to established therapeutical approaches for periodontal disease.
Clin Oral Investig
January 2025
Clinic of Conservative and Preventive Dentistry, Center for Dental Medicine, University of Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland.
Objective: Aim of this study was to critically appraise clinical evidence on the potential benefits of adjunctive use of superfoods green tea and turmeric as mouthrinse or local delivery agents in the treatment of periodontal disease.
Materials And Methods: Electronic searches were performed in four databases for randomized trials from inception to February 2024 assessing the supplemental use of superfoods green tea and turmeric for gingivitis/periodontitis treatment. After duplicate study selection, data extraction, and risk-of-bias assessment with the RoB 2 tool, random-effects meta-analyses of Mean Differences (MD) or Standardized Mean Differences (SMD) with their 95% confidence intervals (CI) were performed.
Bone expansion as a horizontal alveolar ridge augmentation technique: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Purpose: Bone expansion is one of the quickest, simplest, and most reliable methods of alveolar ridge augmentation for implant placement. This systematic review is designed to investigate the outcomes of the bone expansion technique for horizontal ridge augmentation.
Methods: The protocol of study has been prospectively registered into PROSPERO (CRD42023414686).
Trends of dental service utilization and expenditure in Taiwan from 2000 to 2020.
J Dent Sci
December 2024
Department of Health Care Administration, Chang Jung Christian University, Tainan, Taiwan.
Background: /purposeSince 1995, Taiwan's National Health Insurance (NHI) has offered a comprehensive dental coverage to over 99 % of the population. This study mainly analyzed the dental service utilization and expenditure trends by the gender, age, and service type and evaluated the resource allocation across different demographics from 2000 to 2020.
Materials And Methods: Nationwide NHI administrative data were used to assess the dental visit rates, average visits per user, and per capita expenditure by the gender, age, and 11 service categories for the years 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015, and 2020.

Purpose: The study aimed to measure the distance from the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) to the alveolar bone crest on both the buccal and lingual sides of the anterior mandibular teeth utilizing cone beam computed tomography (CBCT).
Materials And Methods: Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) was utilized to measure the distance between CEJ and the alveolar bone crest on both the buccal and lingual sides of the mandible's anterior teeth.
Results: The mean of the distance on buccal side for the central, lateral, and canine teeth were (1.
Molecular analysis of HPV16 and HPV18 oncogenes in oral squamous cell carcinoma: Structural, transcriptomic and insights.

March 2025
Department of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics, Saveetha Dental College and Hospitals, Saveetha Institute of Medical and Technical Sciences, Saveetha University, Chennai, Tamil Nadu 600077, India.
The present study investigated the involvement of human papillomavirus (HPV)16 and HPV18 in oropharyngeal malignancies in order to understand the oncogenic mechanisms, and to identify biomarkers for early detection and treatment targets. Given the rising incidence of HPV-associated cancer, particularly in India, this holds significance in elucidating the molecular basis of these diseases. Structural validation of HPV16 and 18 oncoproteins E6 and E7 was conducted using computational tools, while gene expression profiles related to oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) were analyzed to assess differential expression.
