Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly advancing in periodontology, bringing new opportunities to clinical diagnosis, risk assessment, personalized treatment planning, and remote patient care. Leveraging core technologies such as deep learning, machine learning, and natural language processing, AI significantly enhances the sensitivity of early periodontal disease detection and provides precise quantification of alveolar bone loss and soft tissue damage. AI facilitates multimodal data integration by synthesizing medical history, lifestyle factors, and imaging data, thereby offering enhanced accurate risk prediction and personalized therapeutic recommendations. By integrating remote monitoring with tailored health counseling, AI helps patients maintain adherence to self-care protocols, significantly improving their oral health-related quality of life and treatment satisfaction. Moreover, AI demonstrates considerable potential in periodontal research and education, particularly in large-scale data mining, virtual clinical case simulations, and natural language processing-assisted literature management. Nevertheless, challenges remain concerning model generalizability, data quality, ethical concerns, and interpretability. The advancement of multi-center big-data platforms is expected to foster a profound integration of AI and periodontology, propelling precision medicine and digital healthcare, enabling holistic management from prevention to long-term care, and enhancing diagnostic efficiency and patient health outcomes.

This study explored a novel digital design and fabrication method for a double constrained split orthodontic miniscrew guide to improve the accuracy and safety of clinical miniscrew implantation and reduce related complications. A patient requiring miniscrew implantation was selected, and data were acquired using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and intraoral optical scanning. For the construction of a double constrained split guide including a screw-hole guide and an insertion rod guide, different types of software such as Mimics 24.0, Geomagic wrap 2021, and Materialise magics 21.0 were utilized for 3D reconstruction, model integration, and guide design. The guide was then fabricated via laser metal 3D printing. Model and intraoral try-in results demonstrated that the guide fitted well and was stable. Postoperative CBCT verified that the final miniscrew implantation site was consistent with the preoperative design, and no related complications occurred. This double constrained split orthodontic miniscrew guide provides a precise and safe digital solution for clinical miniscrew implantation.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the osteogenic efficacy of three-dimensional printing individualized titanium mesh (3D-PITM) as a scaffold material in guided bone regeneration (GBR). METHODS: 1) Patients undergoing GBR for alveolar bone defects were enrolled as study subjects, and postoperative healing complications were recorded. 2) Postoperative cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans acquired at least 6 months post-surgery were used to calculate the percentage of actual bone formation volume. 3) Alveolar bone specimens were collected during the first-stage implant surgery for histomorphometric analysis. This analysis quantitatively measured the proportions of newly formed bone and newly formed unmineralized bone within the specimens. Specimens were categorized into three groups based on healing complications (good healing group, wound dehiscence group, 3D-PITM exposure group) to compare differences in the proportions of newly formed bone and newly formed unmineralized bone. RESULTS: 1) Twelve patients were included. Guided bone regeneration failed in one patient, and 3D-PITM exposure occurred in three patients (exposure rate: 25%). 2) The mean percentage of actual bone formation volume in the 11 successful guided bone regeneration cases was 95.23%±28.85%. 3) Histomorphometric analysis revealed that newly formed bone constituted 40.35% of the alveolar bone specimens, with newly formed unmineralized bone accounting for 13.84% of the newly formed bone. Intergroup comparisons showed no statistically significant differences (>0.05) in the proportions of newly formed bone or newly formed unmineralized bone between the good healing group and the wound dehiscence group or the 3D-PITM exposure group. CONCLUSIONS: 3D-PITM enables effective bone augmentation. Radiographic assessment demonstrated favorable bone formation volume, while histological analysis confirmed substantial formation of newly formed mineralized bone within the surgical site.

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to analyze the correlations and proportional relationships between maxillary anterior teeth (MAT) and facial measurements in Han Chinese individuals with the most attractive smiles, as evaluated by dental professionals. METHODS: Ten dentists with more than 5 years of clinical experience from different professional directions in a tertiary stomatological hospital were selected to evaluate the smile attractiveness of volunteers by visual analogue scale (VAS). Eighty-eight Han volunteers with the most attractive smile were selected. The perceived width of the MAT, the dimensions (height and width) of the maxillary central incisors (MCI), and the facial dimensions (intercanthal distance, interzygomatic distance, interalar distance, facial height and lower facial height) of the volunteers were measured on the frontal photos of the smile, digital oral model, and 3D face model. Pearson correlation analysis was performed to analyze linear correlations, and regression analysis was carried out to explore the proportional relationships. Reliability analysis using the intraclass correlation coefficient verified the stability of these proportional relationships. In addition, the correlations between MAT perceived width and the proportional relationships of (MCI) height to width ratio, with facial dimensions were explored and their reliability was verified. RESULTS: In Han Chinese individuals with the most attractive smiles, as evaluated by dental professionals, the Pearson correlation coefficients among MAT perceived widths were 0.813, 0.389, and 0.560. A proportional relationship existed between the lateral incisor and central incisor, and the ratio was 0.729. No significant correlations were found between MCI and the inner canthal distance, zygomatic distance, interalar distance, facial height, or the lower one-third facial height except for a negative correlation (=-0.357) between MCI height and facial height in males and a positive correlation (=0.249) between MCI width and interalar width when genders were combined. CONCLUSIONS: Correlations exist among MAT perceived widths in Han Chinese individuals with the most attractive smiles, as evaluated by dental professionals. Partial correlations are observed between MCI height and width and facial measurements. The perceived width of the lateral incisor can serve as a reference indicator for predicting the perceived width of the central incisor, providing a reference for the aesthetic restoration of MAT in the Han ethnicity population.

OBJECTIVES: This study aims to evaluate the short- to medium-term clinical efficacy of demineralized dentin matrix (DDM) particles applied during the immediate implantation of alveolar bone defects in the posterior region. METHODS: A total of 76 patients with 110 simple taper retentive implants were included in the conducted study and divided into Groups A and B in accordance with the bone grafting materials. Cone beam computed tomography and panoramic radiographs were taken immediately after implant surgery, immediate crown repair, and final follow-up time. The average follow-up time for Groups A and B was recorded. The primary observed clinical indicators were overall survival rate of the implant, bone resorption of the mesial and distal margins of the implant, buccal bone width resorption at the platform level and 1 mm below the platform, and bone height of the implant. Implant complication was a secondary observed clinical indicator. RESULTS: During the 1-to-5-year follow-up observation period, the mean follow-up of Group A was 38.2 months while that of Group B was 39.9 months. In Group A, two implants failed, one of which fractured, and implant overall survival rate was 96.4%. Four implants failed in Group B due to peri-implantitis, and implant overall survival rate was 92.6%. No statistically significant difference in implant overall survival rate was found between the two groups (>0.05). In Group A, the average bone resorption in the mesial and distal margins of the implants was (1.011±2.047) mm and (0.841±2.183) mm, respectively. In Group B, the average bone resorption of the mesial and distal margins of the implants was (1.546±1.778) mm and (1.431±1.909) mm, respectively. No statistically significant difference was noted between the two groups (>0.05). In Group A, buccal bone width resorption at the platform level and 1 mm below the platform of the implant was (0.782±2.084) mm and (0.681±2.307) mm, respectively. In Group B, buccal bone width resorption at the platform level and 1 mm below the platform of implant was (1.071±1.474) mm and (0.949±1.909) mm, respectively. No statistically significant difference was found between the two groups (>0.05). In Group A, the buccal bone height of resorption of the implant was (1.044±2.214) mm. In Group B, the buccal bone height of resorption of the implant was (1.075±1.456) mm. No statistically significant difference in bone height was observed between the two groups (>0.05). CONCLUSIONS: During the 1-to-5-year follow-up observation period, DDM particles can effectively increase the height and width of alveolar bone, and they can achieve the same effect of maintaining alveolar bone contour and bone augmentation compared with deproteinized inorganic calf bone. DDM particles can be used as a potential new bone grafting material for the treatment of bone defects in clinical practice.

OBJECTIVES: Investigating the protective effect of naringenin (NAR) on the osteogenic potential of human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) under oxidative stress and its related mechanisms. METHODS: The oxidative damage model of hPDLSCs was established using hydrogen peroxide (HO) andthe hPDLSCs were treated with different concentrations of NAR and 0.5 μmol/L forkhead box protein O-1 (FOXO1) inhibitor AS1842856. After that, the cell counting kit-8 (CCK8) was used to determine the optimal concentrations of HO and NAR. The alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining and real time fluorescent quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) were employed to assess the expression of ALP, runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2) and osteocalcin (OCN) in hPDLSCs of each group. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and 2',7'-dichlorofluorescin diacetate (DCFH-DA) staining were utilized to evaluate the expression of reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in hPDLSCs. Meanwhile, qRT-PCR and western blot were used to detect the expression levels of FOXO1 and β-catenin, both are pathway related genes and proteins. RESULTS: HO exposure led to an increase in oxidative damage in hPDLSCs, characterized by a rise in intracellular ROS levels and increased expression of MDA and LDH (0.05). At the same time, the osteogenic differentiation ability of hPDLSCs decreased, as evidenced by lighter ALP staining and reduced expression levels of osteogenic differentiation-related genes ALP, RUNX2 and OCN (0.05). Co-treatment with NAR alleviated the oxidative damage in hPDLSCs, enhanced their antioxidant capacity, and restored their osteogenic ability. The FOXO1 inhibitor AS1842856 downregulated the expression of β-catenin (0.05) and significantly diminished both the antioxidant effect of NAR and its ability to restore osteogenesis (0.05). CONCLUSIONS: NAR can enhance the antioxidant capacity of hPDLSCs by activating the FOXO1/β-catenin signaling pathway within hPDLSCs, thereby mitigating oxidative stress damage and alleviating the loss of osteogenic capacity.

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to explore the expression of lysosomal-associated membrane protein 5 (LAMP5) and microRNA (miR)-302a-3p in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and their functional mechanism on the invasion and metastasis of OSCC. METHODS: The expression of LAMP5 in OSCC and its sensitivity as a prognostic indicator were analyzed on the basis of The Cancer Genome Atlas database. Western blot, quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, and cell immunocytochemistry were used to detect the expression of LAMP5 in OSCC tissues and cells. The effect of LAMP5 on the proliferation, migration, and invasion of OSCC cells was evaluated through cell counting kit-8, immunocytochemistry, migration, and invasion assays, respectively. The miRNA targeting prediction websites were used to predict the miR that regulates LAMP5 and verify the targeted regulatory effect of miR-302a-3p on LAMP5. The effect of LAMP5 knockdown on OSCC tumor growth was evaluated in a nude mouse tumorigenesis model. RESULTS: LAMP5 was highly expressed in OSCC tissues and cells. It showed high sensitivity in the early diagnosis of OSCC. LAMP5 knockdown significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of OSCC cells, whereas LAMP5 overexpression increased these cell activities. The expression of LAMP5 was regulated by miR-302a-3p. , LAMP5 knockdown significantly inhibited the growth of OSCC tumor. CONCLUSIONS: LAMP5 promotes the malignant progression of OSCC by enhancing the proliferation, migration, and invasion of OSCC cells. The expression of LAMP5 is negatively regulated by miR-302a-3p.

Dental trauma is one of the relatively common emergencies in clinical dental practice, with a high incidence rate, and the maxillary central incisors are the most frequently affected. This article reports a case of a 17-year-old female patient who suffered traumatic complete avulsion of teeth 11 and 21, with tooth 21 lost after avulsion. The prognosis for replantation was poor due to the absence of the buccal alveolar bone wall of tooth 11. Therefore, tooth 11 was treated with extracorporeal root canal therapy and then replanted into the alveolar socket of tooth 21, which had better conditions, followed by elastic splint fixation. After 20 months of follow-up observation, the affected tooth maintained a stable functional position, with no periapical inflammation or ankylosis observed. Subsequently, delayed implant restoration at the site of tooth 11 was performed, ultimately achieving a favorable treatment outcome. This case may provide new insights and references for future clinical practices in tooth replantation.

Dentinogenesis imperfecta is a dentin development disorder inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. It is rarely seen in clinical with a low incidence rate. We reported a case of dentinogenesis imperfecta referred to the Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Hospital of Stomatology, Lanzhou University. Investigation of the four-generation pedigree of the proband and review of relevant literature indicated that dentinogenesis imperfecta equally affects both genders and involves deciduous and permanent teeth with a high familial prevalence. By analyzing the clinical manifestations of dentinogenesis imperfecta and exploring early management strategies, this case study aims to enhance dentists' understan-ding and management of this condition to improve patients' quality of life.

OBJECTIVES: Through the investigation of the microhardness and microstructure of permanent tooth enamel at various eruption stages during childhood, this research offers references for the early prevention of childhood dental caries. METHODS: Forty-five premolars extracted due to orthodontic reasons were collected and screened. These premolars were divided into three experimental groups according to the time since eruption: Group A (erupted for 0-1 year), Group B (erupted for 1-3 years), and Group C (erupted for 3-5 years). Additionally, the third molars that were extracted due to impaction and had not erupted were selected as the control group, with 15 teeth in each group. Samples were prepared, and the surface microhardness, microstructure, and elemental composition of the enamel were measured using Vickers microhardness tester, scanning electron microscope, and electron probe, respectively. RESULTS: Compared with that in the control group, the microhardness of enamel in groups A, B, and C increased with prolonged eruption time, the surface porosity structure decreased considerably, the contents of Na and Mg on the surface decreased, and that of F increased (<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The microhardness and microstructure of enamel in permanent teeth at different stages vary. Permanent teeth are at a substantially higher risk of caries within one year after eruption, and early prevention should be emphasized.

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to investigate the incidence, imaging characteristics, and clinical manifestations of the eruption failure of deciduous molars using panoramic radiographs to provide a foundation for diagnosis and treatment in this population. METHODS: This study retrospectively reviewed panoramic radiographs of children aged 4-8 years obtained from Stomatology Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine between January 2021 and December 2023. A total of 31 331 subjects were included for the radiographic assessment of the tooth eruption failure of deciduous molars. Incidence, radiographic characteristics, and associated complications were documented. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 26.0. RESULTS: The incidence of the eruption failure of deciduous molars among children aged 4-8 years was 0.94% (296/31 331). The rate was 1.55 times higher in females than in males, demonstrating a significant gender difference (<0.001). Among the affected deciduous molars, mandibular first deciduous molars accounted for 76.4%, followed by the mandibular second deciduous molars (13.8%), and the maxillary deciduous molars collectively comprised 9.8%. The severity of eruption disorders was significantly associated with the mesial and distal tilting of adjacent teeth and elongation of the antagonist (<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of the eruption failure of deciduous molars in children aged 4-8 years was 0.94%, with a high prevalence in females and a predilection for the mandible, particularly the mandibular first deciduous molar. For deciduous molars with severe eruption failure, early intervention is crucial to mitigate complications such as malocclusion and space loss.

OBJECTIVES: This study aims to evaluate the differences in shear bond strength, marginal adaptation, and nano-microleakage after aging among snowplow, layered filling, and lining techniques applied to the resin-bonded restoration of defective primary teeth. METHODS: In this study, 51 freshly extracted, crown-intact primary anterior teeth and 30 primary molars were collected. The experimental groups were as follows: layered filling group, lining group, and snowplow group. Experiments were performed to compare the differences in shear bond strength, marginal integrity, and silver ion nano-microleakage after aging among these groups. RESULTS: The median shear bond strength of the layered filling group, lining group, and snowplow group were 2.45, 5.72, and 9.43 MPa, respectively. The values for lining group and snowplow group were significantly higher than that for layered filling group (<0.05). No statistically significant difference was found between lining group and snowplow group (>0.05). The median overall margin integrity of the layered filling group, lining group, and snowplow group were 55.38%, 48.25%, and 65.63%, respectively. The difference among the three groups was not statistically significant (>0.05). The median percentages of silver ion nano-microleakage in the layered filling group, lining group, and snowplow group were 11.71%, 9.47%, and 11.55%, respectively. The difference among the three groups was not statistically significant (>0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Applying the snowplow technique to restore defective primary teeth can improve the bond strength and margin integrity and reduce nano-microleakage.

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical application value of in-situ crown reattachment technique combined with pulpotomy in the treatment of complicated crown-root fractures in young permanent anterior teeth. METHODS: A prospective study was conducted on 50 children with complicated crown-root fractures in young permanent anterior teeth, who were treated at the Pediatric Dentistry Department, Hospital of Stomatology, Xi'an Jiaotong University from June 2023 to June 2024. All patients underwent in-situ crown reattachment technique combined with pulpotomy. Clinical examinations, radiographic evaluations, and subjective satisfaction surveys (using a Likert scale of 1-10) were conducted at 1, 6, and 12 months postoperatively. Data were analyzed using SPSS 23.0. RESULTS: The loss-to-follow-up rate was 12% (6/50), with 44 cases completing the 12 months of evaluation. The clinical success rate was 93.18% (41/44), and the radiographic success rate was 97.73% (43/44). The subjective satisfaction scores showed a significant improvement in masticatory function from 7.03±0.52 at 1 month to 8.07±0.92 at 12 months postoperatively (<0.05), whereas the scores for aesthetics, comfort, and quality-of-life impact showed no statistically significant differences (>0.05). CONCLUSIONS: In-situ crown reattachment technique combined with pulpotomy effectively treats complicated crown-root fractures in young permanent anterior teeth, demonstrating a high short-term clinical success rate, significantly improved masticatory function, and minimally invasive preservation of pulp vitality and root development potential. This technique provides an optimized treatment option for dental trauma in children, although its long-term efficacy requires further validation.

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to explore the clinical efficacy of severe early childhood caries (SECC) treatment combined with local anesthesia under general anesthesia. METHODS: A total of 108 children under 6 years old who underwent SECC dental treatment under general anesthesia at the Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Third Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University from March to December 2023 were selected as the study subjects, with American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification of classⅠor Ⅱ. The study subjects were divided into a control group (=54) and an experimental group (=54) by retrieving intraoperative cases and postoperative follow-up records. The control group was given general anesthesia through inhalation combined with nasotracheal intubation, whereas the experimental group was given local anesthesia with 2% lidocaine on each treated tooth on the basis of general anesthesia. The basic information, preoperative anesthesia depth, hemodynamic changes during different surgical procedures, postoperative pain, and adverse reactions in the two groups were recorded and analyzed. RESULTS: No statistically significant difference was found in the basic information and preoperative anesthesia depth between the two groups (>0.05). Among the three procedures (pulpotomy, root canal treatment, and tooth extraction), the three observed indicators in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group (<0.05). The proportion of patients in the experimental group who needed to take analgesic measures in accordance with the modified facial pain scale (FPS-R) score was significantly lower than that in the control group at postoperative wakefulness and 2 h after surgery (<0.05). Meanwhile, no statistically significant difference was observed between the groups at 24 h after surgery (>0.05). The proportion of patients in the experimental group who needed to take analgesic measures on the basis of the parent posto-perative pain measurement (PPPM) score was significantly lower than that in the control group when they were awake after surgery (<0.05). No statistically significant difference was found between the groups at 2 and 24 h after surgery (>0.05). Moreover, no statistically significant difference was observed in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups at 24 h after surgery (>0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The combination of local anesthesia during SECC dental treatment under general anesthesia results in minimal changes in intraoperative hemodynamics and mild postoperative pain response, hence worthy of clinical promotion.

In May 2023, the Chinese Stomatological Association promulgated the group standard of "Standard on Clinical Dental Treatment for Children under General Anesthesia Orsedation". These specifications were formulated through broad-based expert consultation, iterative revisions, and a comprehensive review of relevant literature, incorporating the collective expertise of nationally recognized authorities in the field. The standard establishes a unified evaluation system and clinical guidelines tailored to China's medical context, aiming to regulate related medical practices. This paper aims to provide an in-depth interpretation of the standard, integrating the clinical research and experiences from the Pediatric Dentistry Department of West China Hospital of Stomatology, Sichuan University, in performing dental treatments under general anesthesia in last 12 years. It particularly focuses on interpreting key aspects, including safety considerations, treatment protocol selection, prevention and management of postoperative complication, postoperative follow-up, and oral health maintenance, to provide a reference for medical staffs to understand and apply them in clinical practice.
