Introduction: The project "Mapping Oral Disease Impact with a Common Metric" (MOM) characterizes the functional, pain-related, aesthetic, and broader psychosocial impacts of oral diseases and conditions using the 4 oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) dimensions: Oral Function, Orofacial Pain, Orofacial Appearance, and Psychosocial Impact. MOM's 4-dimensional oral health impact information in children was provided by Omara et al. in 2021. We aimed to update this information in 2024 by performing a new systematic review.
Methods: We performed a systematic review following PRISMA guidelines to identify original studies assessing the OHRQoL of children <18 years using the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP). OHIP publications were retrieved from 2 sources: (i) articles identified by Omara et al., 2021 (search date: 9 January 2019) and (ii) newly identified articles published from 2019 to 2024 in the following databases: Embase+Embase Classic (via Ovid), CINAHL, APA PsycINFO (via Ovid), Scopus, and Web of Science (Core Collection). Abstracts of 1128 articles were screened. The full-text of 199 articles was reviewed, and 24 articles were included. Their OHIP information was mapped into the 4-dimensional OHRQoL framework.
Results: Across 3 settings (general population subjects, dental patients, and medical patients) we identified 24 publications. They provided four-dimensional OHRQoL information for 49 populations in 55 samples (N = 8307 study participants). The Orofacial Appearance dimension had the highest impact, while the Psychosocial Impact dimension had the lowest. Functional impact scores were higher than pain-related impact scores. Among dental patients, those with anterior tooth extraction without replacement had the highest impact score within the Orofacial Appearance dimension.
Conclusion: Children's 4-dimensional oral health impact information in the "Mapping Oral Disease Impact with a Common Metric" (MOM) project was updated in 2024 with a systematic review. The findings for Oral Function, Orofacial Pain, Orofacial Appearance, and Psychosocial Impact in children are aligned with findings in adults using the same 4-dimensional impact measurements.

SARS-CoV-2 is an oral pathogen that infects and replicates in mucosal and salivary epithelial cells, contributing to oral post-acute sequelae COVID-19 (PASC) and other oral and non-oral pathologies. While pre-existing inflammatory oral diseases provides a conducive environment for the virus, acute infection and persistence of SARS-CoV-2 can also results in oral microbiome dysbiosis that further worsens poor oral mucosal health. Indeed, oral PASC includes periodontal diseases, dysgeusia, xerostomia, pharyngitis, oral keratoses, and pulpitis suggesting significant bacterial contributions to SARS-CoV-2 and oral tissue tropism.

Statement Of Problem: Extraoral photogrammetry (PG) systems can record implant positions in 1 scan or in 2 scans that are then merged. However, the accuracy of implant positions recorded in 2 partial photogrammetry scans is unknown.
Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the accuracy of complete arch implant scans recorded in 1 or 2 scans by using 3 extraoral PG systems.

Iron deficiency is a highly prevalent nutritional deficiency and the most common cause of anemia worldwide. Pregnant individuals are particularly susceptible due to increased demands to support expanding maternal blood volume and fetal growth. Iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia are associated with maternal and neonatal morbidity, including preterm birth, preeclampsia, postpartum hemorrhage, and low birth weight.
