Effect of supine and upright positions on airway dimensions in patients with obstructive sleep apnea
(2021)Aim: The aim of the study was to assess the effect of supine vs upright imaging positions on airway dimensions in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Materials and methods: This retrospective study included ... -
Effects of non-compliant intraoral distalizers on the soft tissue profile, A systematic review
(2021)Background: Practicing orthodontists have special interest in Class II malocclusion cases as they constitute a significant percentage of the cases they treat. Maxillary molar distalization is the most frequently used ... -
Effect of Voxel Size on the Accuracy of Airway Volumetric Measurements Using Cone Beam Computed Tomography
(2021)Aim: The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the accuracy and reliability of the airway volume, dental, and skeletal parameters measured digitally on cone beam computed tomography scans (CBCTs) using ... -
Evaluation of the root and canal morphology of maxillary and mandibular premolars in an Emirati subpopulation using cone beam computed tomographic data: A retrospective study
(2021)Background: Missed canal anatomy is one of the most common cause of endodontic therapy failure. Numerous studies have reported that maxillary and mandibular premolars have a complex internal canal configuration, which ... -
A retrospective analysis of biological complications of implant-supported fixed dental prostheses
(2021)Background: In the past few decades implant supported fixed dental protheses has become widely accepted treatment option for replacing missing teeth. Despite their high survival rate, complications such as peri-implant ... -
Evaluation of the mental foramen and the mandibular canal course in emirati population: a cone-beam computed tomography study
(2021)Background: The mandibular canal (MC) is an important bony structure presents in the mandible that contains a bundle of nerves and vessels including the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) and the mandibular division of the ... -
The influence of insertion torque values on the failure and complication rates of dental implants: A systematic review and meta-analysis
(2021)Background: The influence of using different insertion torque values on clinical and radiographic outcomes of implant therapy is unclear in the current literature. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was ... -
Risk factors for dental implant failure: A 10-year retrospective study
(2021)Background: Owing to the high long-term survival rates of osseointegrated dental implants it has become increasingly used as the treatment of choice to replace missing teeth in the past few decades. Nevertheless, implant ... -
Development of a dental reference data set for Emirati children and adolescents based on the Demirjian’s method
(2021)Background: The ability to predict the difference between chronological age (CA) and dental age (DA) is an important aid in the accurate diagnosis and treatment planning process in the pediatric population. Aim: To ... -
Optimizing a 3d endodontic stent for adhesive fiber post removal: in vitro experimental study
(2022)Background: The aim of this study is to optimize the variables involved in the design and fabrication of 3D stent for fiber post removal to enhance it accuracy, efficacy and safety. Material and methods: 3D stents ... -
Accuracy of three-dimensional printed guide plate for indirect bracket placement: one-piece verses segmented, an in Vitro study
(2022)Background: An accurate placement of brackets is a key element of the comprehensive treatment process of orthodontics to achieve an ideal occlusion. Orthodontic brackets can be directly placed on tooth surfaces or ... -
Diode laser as an adjunctive treatment for peri-implant mucositis: a systematic review and meta-analysis
(2022)Background: The early detection and treatment of peri-implant mucositis may help in reducing inflammatory parameters and arrest disease progression to peri-implantitis. The potential clinical benefits of using different ... -
Effect of Silver Diamine Fluoride (SDF) Solution on the Stem Cells from Human Exfoliated Deciduous Teeth (SHEDs)
(2022)Background: SDF is a solution containing silver, fluoride, and ammonia. Clinically, it is used to arrest the progression of carious lesions in primary teeth. Recent studies have shown that SDF has indirect effect on pulp ... -
The Current Trends and usage of Nickel-Titanium Engine-driven Endodontic Instruments: A multicenter Survey
(2022)Background: Due to their properties, Nickle-titanium (NiTi) alloys are used in manufacturing of endodontic instruments, especially rotaries. The first rotary 0.02 taper NiTi was designed by Dr. John MacSpadden and came ... -
Alveolar Ridge Preservation: a Cochrane Systematic Review and Metaanalysis
(2022)Background: Alveolar bone changes following tooth extraction can compromise prosthodontic rehabilitation. Alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) has been proposed to limit these changes and improve prosthodontic and aesthetic ... -
Investigation of static versus dynamic cyclic fatigue resistance in NiTi endodontic instruments with different alloy treatments
(2022)Background: Endodontic rotary instruments can be used in a variety of canal conditions; fatigue fracture is a risk. This study looked at the cyclic fatigue resistance of two batches of nickel–titanium (NiTi) dental rotary ... -
Protective Stabilization for Children as Part of Advanced Behavior Management Technique in Dentistry: UAE United Arab Emirates Dentists’ and Parents’ Acceptance
(2022)Background: Behavior Management Techniques (BMTs), used by Pediatric Dentists (PDs) and some General Dental Practitioners (GDPs) for managing children’s dental care, are divided into two categories: “basic behavior ... -
