Quantitative analysis of mandibular cortical morphology using artificial intelligence-based computer assisted diagnosis for panoramic radiography on underlying diseases and dental status in women over 20 years of age.

Journal of dental sciences
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Recently, an artificial intelligence-based computer-assisted diagnosis (AI-CAD) for panoramic radiography was developed to scan the inferior margin of the mandible and automatically evaluate mandibular cortical morphology. The aim...

Effect of amoxicillin and clindamycin on the gene expression of markers involved in osteoblast physiology.

Journal of dental sciences
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Amoxicillin and clindamycin are the most effective decontaminants for intraoral bone grafts before their application in bone regeneration without cytotoxic effects on osteoblasts, but their effects on the gene expression of marker...

A family-centered orthodontic screening approach using a machine learning-based mobile application.

Journal of dental sciences
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Skeletal orthodontic deformities can have functional and aesthetic consequences, making early detection critical. This study aimed to address the issue of parents bringing their children for routine orthodontic checkups after the ...

Myeloid differentiation factor 2 inhibitors exert protective effects on lipopolysaccharides-treated human dental pulp cells via suppression of toll-like receptor 4-mediated signaling.

Journal of dental sciences
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: The toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-myeloid differentiation factor 2 (MD-2) complex is known to have a role in inflammation. Blocking MD-2 can suppress inflammatory process. However, the actual action of MD-2 inhibitors, including MAC...

Deep learning algorithms for classification and detection of recurrent aphthous ulcerations using oral clinical photographic images.

Journal of dental sciences
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: The application of artificial intelligence diagnosis based on deep learning in the medical field has been widely accepted. We aimed to evaluate convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for automated classification and detection of rec...

The effect of topical application of meloxicam on inflamed dental pulp.

Journal of dental sciences
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Effective regulation of the inflammatory process is essential for pulp repair and regeneration. Meloxicam has anti-inflammatory activity in systemic administration. The purpose of this study is to observe effects of topically appl...

Landmark annotation and mandibular lateral deviation analysis of posteroanterior cephalograms using a convolutional neural network.

Journal of dental sciences
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Facial asymmetry is relatively common in the general population. Here, we propose a fully automated annotation system that supports analysis of mandibular deviation and detection of facial asymmetry in posteroanterior (PA) cephalo...

Evaluation of jaw bone density and morphology in bruxers using panoramic radiography.

Journal of dental sciences
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Bruxism affects the stomatognathic system and causes tissue damage by the excessive jaw movements. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of sleep bruxism on jaw bone density, mineralisation and morphology by compar...

The discoloration effect of diluted minocycline containing triple antibiotic gel used in revascularization.

Journal of dental sciences
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Triple antibiotic paste (TAP) has been successfully used in revascularization procedure. However, one of the problems associated with TAP use is teeth discoloration, which is attributed to the presence of minocycline constituent. ...

Effect of dexmedetomidine sedation on swallowing reflex: A pilot study.

Journal of dental sciences
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Swallowing reflex depression during dental treatment or oral surgery may cause water to enter the lower respiratory tract, leading to coughing, thus hindering these procedures. Based on the hypothesis that dexmedetomidine (DEX) se...
