Summary: This study aimed to investigate whether periodontitis induces dysbiosis of gut microbiota through invasion by salivary microbes. The results showed significant differences in both the faecal and salivary microbiota between periodontally healthy participants and patients with severe periodontitis. Furthermore, transplantation of salivary microbes into mice revealed significant differences in the composition of the gut microbiota and alterations in intestinal health-related markers. In addition, salivary microbes were found to persist in the gut for at least 24 hours.

Summary: This study evaluated the association between temporomandibular disorder (TMD) and neck pain in patients with primary headaches. The results showed that migraine patients reported higher TMD and neck pain. Machine learning analysis demonstrated that TMD was correlated to migraine, while neck pain was correlated to tension-type headache (TTH) or migraine.

Summary: This in vitro study compared the properties of interim restorations made by 3D printing with different technologies. The results showed that SLS resin performed well in terms of Vickers microhardness, flexural strength, fatigue test, and biofilm formation. SLA resin showed favorable results only for biofilm formation and surface roughness.

Summary: This review provides an update on the longevity of posterior resin composite restorations and their relationship with material and adhesive types. The survival rate of resin composite restorations dropped to 85-90% after 10 years, with bulk fractures and wear being the main reasons for replacement. There were no significant differences between nanohybrid, hybrid, and microhybrid resin composites in terms of color match, surface texture, and anatomical form. Compomer and GIC restorations demonstrated shorter longevity.

Summary: This study investigated the effect of post curing light exposure time on the physico-mechanical properties and cytotoxicity of a 3D-printed PMMA-based denture material. The results showed that the flexural strength, toughness, and surface hardness of the material significantly improved with longer post curing time, and the cell viability also increased.

Summary: Treatment of periodontitis can lead to improvements in systemic health, including reduction in cardiometabolic risk, systemic inflammation, and preterm deliveries. Further research is needed to confirm the sustainability of these changes, and future clinical trials should include appropriate quality of life outcomes in their study designs.

Summary: As the global population ages, periodontitis and tooth loss are of great concern for health. Recent advances in geroscience have shown that biological aging is linked to periodontitis, with individuals having accelerated aging experiencing higher risks of periodontitis and tooth loss. Furthermore, cellular and molecular mechanisms at the periodontal level play a role in the aging process, with cellular senescence, stem cell exhaustion, and immunoaging impacting periodontal homeostasis and the pathophysiology of periodontitis. Advances in senotherapy involving physical exercise, intermittent fasting, natural compounds, senolytic drugs, and cell therapy are being explored to rejuvenate oral health and potentially intercept biological aging before the onset of aging-related diseases in chronologically young individuals.

Summary: This comprehensive review examines the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning in dentistry, focusing on deep learning, fuzzy logic, and other techniques applied to disease identification, image segmentation, image correction, and color analysis. The study highlights the potential for high-performance decision support systems and personalized treatments in digital dentistry, with an emphasis on improving the accuracy of dental restorations in esthetic dentistry through advanced modeling techniques.

Summary: The study found that liquid attached on tooth surfaces can affect the accuracy of intraoral scanners, with wet conditions resulting in lower trueness and precision. However, blow-drying with a three-way syringe can help reduce scanning errors and improve accuracy.

Summary: The study evaluated the external gap progression of high translucency zirconia (HTZ) and zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate (ZLS) on endodontically treated teeth. Results showed that high-retentive designs with ZLS performed better in maintaining external margin sealing after cyclic fatigue. Clinicians should carefully consider preparation designs and ceramic material selection for optimal restoration of endodontically treated molars.

Summary: Lithium-based glass-ceramics are widely used in dental restorative materials. This study characterized the microstructure, crystalline fraction, glass chemistry, and mechanical properties of eleven commercial dental lithium-based glass ceramics. The results showed significant differences in chemical composition, microstructure, crystallinity, and mechanical properties among these materials. The findings provide valuable information for dentists to make informed choices.

Summary: This article reviews the current state of portable/wearable EMG devices for assessment of bruxism. The results show that ultra-miniaturized wearable EMG devices with performance equivalent to conventional devices have been developed and used during sleep and in the daytime, with a high level of diagnostic accuracy for sleep bruxism. However, a definite cut-off value for awake bruxism has not been established.
