Anterior crossbite is a malocclusion that occurs for a variety of reasons, causes significant issues, and may be corrected in a variety of ways. Early recognition and timely intervention are crucial in managing anterior dental crossbites during the mixed dentition stage. The purpose of this report is to assist general dentists and pediatric dentists in distinguishing between cases within their scope of practice and those requiring referral to orthodontists and treating this condition immediately to prevent future complex treatment and improve patient aesthetics and function...

BACKGROUND: Although intraoral scanning is highly reliable, little is known about its accuracy in young children with limited mouth-opening ability. AIM: To determine the accuracy of intraoral scans based on the degree of mouth opening. DESIGN: To simulate mouth opening in children with primary dentition, three groups (n = 5 per group) were allocated by maximum mouth opening of 30, 37 and 40 mm. After the primary dentition model was connected to a dental phantom, intraoral scanning was performed using iTero and TRIOS4...

PURPOSE: Recent studies have highlighted the potential role of a short lingual frenulum as a risk factor for pediatric obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. A shortened frenulum may contribute to abnormal orofacial development, leading to increased upper airway resistance and susceptibility to upper airway collapsibility during sleep. Recognizing early indicators, such as a short lingual frenulum, is crucial for prompt intervention. This systematic review aims to evaluate the association between a short lingual frenulum and the risk of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome in children...

PURPOSE: Pulpectomy can be used for the management of deep dentinal carious lesions in primary teeth which can be restored. Mechanical preparation of root canals can be performed using hand or NiTi rotary files. However, this may cause dentinal stress and consequently dentinal microcracks. Hence, the aim was comparative evaluation of hand and rotary file systems on dentinal microcrack formation during pulpectomy procedure in primary teeth. METHODS: 60 extracted primary molar teeth were selected comprising of 80 root canals...

PURPOSE: It is traditionally considered that breaking bad news to patients does not represent a cause for concern for dental professionals. However, there are situations where they will be confronted with this task, as in the case of rare dental diseases. Little information is available regarding the feelings of healthcare professionals on this subject. There are no qualitative studies that explore how a diagnosis of oligodontia is announced to patients by dentists and orthodontists. The aim of our study is to explore the difficulties and ethical issues experienced by dental health professionals when they have to announce a diagnosis of oligodontia to a patient and their family...
