Background: The accurate determination of the working length (WL) is imperative for endodontic success.
Objectives: Our objective was to systematically analyze the available evidence on the impact of voxel size variation on the estimation of WL using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT).
Material And Methods: An electronic search of the PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and Web of Science databases was conducted according to specific inclusion and exclusion criteria in March 2022.

Background: High-flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) therapy delivers humidified, heated air with flow rates of up to 60 L/min with oxygen entrained. HFNO has advantages over conventional oxygen therapy, including precise and reliable fraction of inspired oxygen delivery, therefore is recommended as first-line treatment for people with acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure.
Objectives: This pilot study aimed to determine the feasibility and acceptability of domiciliary nasal high flow (NHF) without entrained oxygen for people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and severe breathlessness.

Concerns about the appearance of teeth and mouth, which play a key role in communication and first impressions, are natural to some extent. However, excessive concern over these areas should raise suspicion of body dysmorphic disorder (BDD). The use of a validated and standardized screening tool in dental settings may improve the identification of BDD.

Studies have focused on the retention of these zinc-free denture adhesives; however, there is a dearth of literature regarding their damping performance. This study analyzes the impact of oral cavity physiological parameters: temperature, pH, and swelling ratio on the mechanical properties of zinc-stabilized and zinc-free denture adhesives and examines the role zinc plays in influencing the adhesive behavior.

Background: External root resorption (ERR) during orthodontic treatment is a common concern, and accurate quantification is crucial for assessing outcomes and minimizing long-term complications. This study aims to quantify ERR using automated root extraction from cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), combined with a novel root partitioning method and enhanced through the integration of intraoral scans for improved accuracy.
Methods: Thirty-six patients with malocclusion were included and divided into two groups.
