Dental treatment can lead to disputes between patients and dentists, which are then brought before the civil courts as medical malpractice cases. The court regularly commissions a dental expert to answer questions of evidence in court. In the majority of cases, the expert is able to answer these questions based on his professional expertise and practical experience. In order to make the assessment comprehensible and credible for the judge and the parties, it can be helpful and reasonable to cite relevant literature references from dental textbooks and specialist journals. In individual cases, it may be necessary to carry out a systematic literature search on specific topics. Based on the situation in Germany, this narrative review makes recommendations of how to perform a literature search and make citations specifically for expert opinions that are generally applicable independent of national jurisdiction.

Low-cost and scalable machine learning model for identifying children and adolescents with poor oral health using survey data: An empirical study in Portugal.
PLoS One
January 2025
Nova School of Business and Economics, Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Carcavelos, Portugal.
This empirical study assessed the potential of developing a machine-learning model to identify children and adolescents with poor oral health using only self-reported survey data. Such a model could enable scalable and cost-effective screening and targeted interventions, optimizing limited resources to improve oral health outcomes. To train and test the model, we used data from 2,133 students attending schools in a Portuguese municipality.

Background: In the oral environment, the production of bacteriocins or antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) plays a crucial role in maintaining ecological balance by impeding the proliferation of closely related microorganisms. This study aims to conduct in silico genome screening of Streptococcus salivarius to identify potential antimicrobial compounds existing as hypothetical peptides, with the goal of developing novel synthetic antimicrobial peptides.
Methods: Draft genomes of various oral Streptococcus salivarius strains were obtained from the NCBI database and subjected to analysis using bioinformatic tools, viz.
Automated Measurements of Tooth Size and Arch Widths on Cone-Beam Computerized Tomography and Scan Images of Plaster Dental Models.
Bioengineering (Basel)

BK21 FOUR ERICA-ACE Center, Hanyang University, Ansan 15588, Gyeonggi-do, Republic of Korea.
Measurements of tooth size for estimating inter-arch tooth size discrepancies and inter-tooth distances, essential for orthodontic diagnosis and treatment, are primarily done using traditional methods involving plaster models and calipers. These methods are time-consuming and labor-intensive, requiring multiple steps. With advances in cone-beam computerized tomography (CBCT) and intraoral scanning technology, these processes can now be automated through computer analyses.

Background: The current cervical cancer screening and diagnosis have limitations due to their subjectivity and lack of reproducibility. We describe the development of a deep learning (DL)-based diagnostic risk prediction model and evaluate its potential for clinical impact.
Method: We developed and internally validated a DL model which accommodates both clinical data and colposcopy images in predicting the patients CIN2+ status using a retrospective cohort of 6356 cases of LEEP-conization/cone-biopsy (gold-standard diagnosis) following an abnormal screening result.
Refining Established Practices for Research Question Definition to Foster Interdisciplinary Research Skills in a Digital Age: Consensus Study With Nominal Group Technique.
JMIR Med Educ
January 2025
Digital Society Initiative, University of Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland.
Background: The increased use of digital data in health research demands interdisciplinary collaborations to address its methodological complexities and challenges. This often entails merging the linear deductive approach of health research with the explorative iterative approach of data science. However, there is a lack of structured teaching courses and guidance on how to effectively and constructively bridge different disciplines and research approaches.
