Adipocyte stem cells (ADSCs), a type of mesenchymal stem cell sourced from adipose tissue, play a significant role in the advancement of novel therapies due to their proven efficacy in developing new treatments. These pluripotent cells have the potential to differentiate into various cell types, including adipocytes (fat cells), myocytes (muscle cells), osteocytes (bone cells), and neurons (nerve cells). To assess the role of ADSCs in the treatment of cleft lip and palate, a systematic review of

This retrospective analysis examined the occurrence of perforations in adjacent anatomical structures caused by dental implants, using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT). Cone-beam computed tomography scans of dental implants were examined for signs of perforations in the relevant anatomical structures. The collected data included demographic details and implant characteristics, such as the type, length, location, diameter, mesial and distal spacing, thread exposure, and whether a radiographic

Kennedy Class I and II cases can present significant challenges in prosthetic rehabilitation, particularly when encountering a complete denture. Retention may sometimes be hindered due to the nature of the remaining soft and hard tissues. While implant-supported prostheses are usually considered the optimal solution for such cases, they may not be feasible for patients with certain health conditions. Traditional cast partial dentures with clasps are an alternative, but they often lack aesthetic

Endocrowns have become widely accepted as an alternative to conventional fixed partial dentures and post-core restorations. From a mechanical standpoint, traditional endodontically treated cavities exhibit low fracture resistance. In contrast, ceramic endocrowns typically feature an occlusal portion ranging in thickness from 3 to 7 millimeters. Research suggests that increasing this occlusal thickness enhances the fracture resistance of ceramic endocrowns. This systematic review aimed to investi

All-ceramic restorations are widely favored due to their numerous advantages. However, their limited durability often requires removal or replacement when they lose functionality. Traditional removal methods rely on rotary instruments to grind away the veneer, a process that is both labor-intensive and inconvenient. In contrast, laser-assisted techniques have emerged as a promising alternative for the removal of all-ceramic restorations. This approach offers several advantages that contribute to

The loss of teeth is a common issue that is often addressed in dental practice. Traditional solutions such as dental implants, and fixed partial dentures are commonly used for replacing missing teeth. For a single tooth loss, dental implants are often the preferred and most successful option. However, these procedures tend to be invasive and result in substantial loss of natural tooth structure. In cases where patients face financial constraints, alternative treatment options are considered. Res

The primary goal of root canal therapy is to locate all canals, achieve thorough debridement, and ensure a three-dimensional obturation of the canal system. Understanding the internal anatomy of the root canal structure is a critical aspect of successful endodontic treatment. Typically, the mandibular first molars present with two roots and 3 or 4 canals; however, the occurrence of additional canals, particularly the middle mesial canal, has been documented in various studies. This case report h
