Association of Sleep quality with academic performance among undergraduate dental students
Get PDFThis systematic review aimed to assess the association between sleep quality and academic performance among undergraduate dental students.
Methods: Electronic databases of Scopus, Embase, Medline, and Web of Science were searched for relevant papers published in the English language in May 2023.Study selection, data extraction and quality assessment were performed in duplicate with JBI Institute’s Critical Appraisal Checklist used to quality assessment. GRADEwas used to assess certainty of evidence
Perception of Dental Students regarding the role Dentist in smoking cessation counselling
Get PDFTobacco use is one of the leading causes of premature death, disease and disability around the world. Six out of eight leading causes of death worldwide are attributed to the diseases related to tobacco use as a risk factor. Healthcare professionals rank high both in effectiveness and preference for providing tobacco cessation counselling. Surveys have found that 58% of smokers made regular appointments with their dentist. Cessation rates of up to 18% have been seen when dental professionals counselled their patients to quit tobacco. The study evaluated dental student’s views about tobacco cessation counselling and their skills as counsellors
Referral Patterns of Neonatal Healthcare Professionals for Cleft Lip and Palate Patients
Get PDFCleft Lip and Palate patients are some of the most vulnerable and complex orthodontic patients. They face a myriad of health challenges including psychological, nutritional, auditory, speech, airway, skeletal, and dental. Ideal comprehensive treatment for CLP patients is provided via multidisciplinary teams of healthcare providers. However, there is currently limited access to proper multidisciplinary care for CLP patients in the US, partly due to lack of education regarding available resources. For the most effective treatment and optimal outcomes, it is essential that coordinated care starts at birth and that parental education begins as soon as CLP is detected in utero. This research aims to improve CLP care by raising awareness amongst healthcare professionals regarding craniofacial orthodontic care for these patients, proper treatment sequencing, and local resources available
Effectiveness of Virtual learning environments for teaching tooth morphology to dental students: a systematic review
Get PDFTo evaluate the effectiveness and acceptance of Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs) in teaching tooth morphology to dental students compared to conventional methods
Evaluating Pi angle efficacy against established cephalometric angular parameters
Get PDFCephalometrics is a cornerstone of orthodontic diagnosis. Numerous angularmeasurements are used to assess the anteroposterior jaw relation include the ANB angle, Betaangle, Yen angle, and W angle. However, these have limitations, leading to the development of thePi angle. Our study aimed to evaluate the predictability of the Pi angle in a South Indian populationand compare it with other established antero-posterior dysplasia indicators such as the ANB angle,W angle, Yen angle, and Beta angle. This comparison is crucial for determining the most accuratemethod for assessing sagittal skeletal discrepancies
IMPACT OF NON-SURGICAL PERIODONTAL TREATMENT ON SALIVARY HIF-1α IN GINGIVITIS & PERIODONTITIS PATIENTS
Get PDFTo estimate and compare the level of salivary HIF-1α in periodontally & systemically healthy volunteers, generalized chronic gingivitis & periodontitis patients before and after non-surgical periodontal treatment
ROOT ANALOGUE IMPLANTS- THE NEW ROUTE
Get PDFDental implants are an excellent option for replacing missing teeth. Traditional implants have a cylindrical or tapered geometry with threads along the screw length. The lack of proper congruency between the implant and the socket bone can eventually lead to implant failure due to stability loss and failure in osseointegration. To overcome this problem, novel approaches are being evaluated to manufacture customized root implants. This is expected to reduce the bone and soft-tissue trauma and promote a better primary stability. They do not require bone drilling, sinus lifting, bone augmentation or other traumatic procedures
Simplify Workflows: AI as a Coding Companion
No full textArtificial Intelligence is on everyone’s minds and has been the topic of the past two Matheson Lectures. But, what is the role of academic health sciences libraries? Moving the theoretical into practical, seven of our colleagues will present real-life case studies. What worked - what didn’t - what would they do differently?
This entry is from one of those case presentations on how a librarian at Roseman University of Health Sciences used AI to complete simple computer programming projects that optimized a few library workflows
Unlocking the Secrets of Stem Cells in Orthodontics
Get PDFHuman Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells (hPDLSCs) have immense potential for use in tissue regeneration and angiogenesis. These cells are influenced by mechanical forces, particularly in orthodontic applications. Understanding how mechanical stress modulates stem cell behavior is essential for optimizing therapeutic strategies
