AMCOP® ELASTODONTIC DEVICES IN ORTHODONTICS: A LITERATURE REVIEW
This study aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current literature on AMCOP® elastodontic devices, focusing on their applications, advantages, and limitations in contemporary orthodontic practice. A literature review was conducted using databases such as PubMed and Scopus, covering studies published from 2010 to 2023. Search terms included "elastodontics," "AMCOP® devices," and "orthodontic elastomers". Inclusion criteria were studies focusing on the clinical application of AMCOP® devices, articles discussing the biomechanical principles of elastodontics, and reviews and clinical trials evaluating the effectiveness of elastodontic treatment. The review identified five relevant studies. These studies focused on therapies with AMCOP® devices for treating various malocclusions, including Class II and III discrepancies, open bites, and crossbites. Notable findings included overjet, overbite, crowding, and palatal symmetry improvements. Additionally, AMCOP® devices contributed to correcting hyperdivergent Class II malocclusion and enhanced upper airway space. AMCOP® elastodontic devices represent a significant advancement in orthodontics, offering a less invasive, patient-friendly alternative to traditional devices. Their use of elastic materials provides continuous, gentle forces that align with physiological tooth movement, enhancing patient comfort and compliance. However, further research, including long-term clinical trials, is essential to establish their efficacy and explore new clinical applications fully.

A technical note for the use of small-diameter cannula for lipoaspiration technique in aesthetic reconstructive post-oncological surgery
Skin cancer basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is a quite common lesion with a worldwide annual incidence between 3% and 8%. Tissue reconstruction should be biologically driven: nowadays, the naso-genial flap is one of the safest and usable flaps for the reconstruction of the labial and nasal region after invasive surgery aimed at a full BCC excision. In fact, the proximity of this flap to the area to be treated, the similar colour of the skin and the technical possibility to perform a single surgery to both harvest the flap and remove the lesion in the area to be then reconstructed, make it highly preferred by surgeons. In order to prevent the most severe swelling, the Authors started to use a novel method consisting in the use of the small-diameter cannula for lipoaspiration technique (SDCL). The correct use of SDCL allows to aspirate the adipose tissue, thus obtaining an available adipose-based scaffold, highly compatible with the area in which the flap is to be placed

Weight and dental eruption: the correlation between BMI and eruption
When planning dental treatment, particularly in orthodontics, the timing and order of tooth eruption (TE) are crucial considerations. It has been noted that fluctuations in body weight have garnered increasing scientific interest due to their potential impact on TE. The review adhered to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. An online database search was conducted using the keywords "dental eruption" AND "weight". A total of 14 relevant papers were scrutinised. Various population and age range were employed in different studies to evaluate surface roughness, color change, and surface fracturing. Numerous studies have investigated the impact of BMI on dental eruption, with findings suggesting a positive correlation between being overweight or obese and early tooth eruption. Understanding these relationships is crucial for identifying at-risk populations and developing effective public health interventions aimed at promoting optimal oral health outcomes worldwide. Further research is needed to comprehensively unravel the underlying mechanisms and implications of these associations
