Braces, Pointless and Essential
For much of my childhood, around once a year or so, my parents would drive me across town to a new orthodontist’s office, where they’d receive yet another written recommendation for braces to send to our insurance provider. After the company inevitably declined to cover the cost, for any one of a dozen reasons – my teeth were moving too much, or they weren’t in enough disorder, or they were in too much disorder to make braces worthwhile without some surgery – we’d immediately start strategizing for the next year.

The prognostic value of histopathology on lingual nerve neurosensory recovery after micro-neurosurgery
Conclusions Small size, absence of distal nerve tissue, and no foreign body reaction were associated with improvement of the neurosensory functions. Clinical relevance Histological parameters of the traumatic neuromas in routine preparation appeared to have some prognostic value for neurosensory functions as improvement of the neurosensory functions was associated with small size of resected tissue, no distal normal appearing nerve tissue, and no foreign body reaction.

Anchorage onto deciduous teeth: effectiveness of early rapid maxillary expansion in increasing dental arch dimension and improving anterior crowding

Evaluation effect of an in-office zoom bleaching gel agent on the surface texture of three contemporary restorative materials
Publication date: Available online 6 July 2015 Source:Tanta Dental Journal Author(s): A.H. Al-Ameedee , H.M. Ragab , E. Osman , Z. Salameh This in vivo study evaluated the effects of an in-office Bleaching Zoom gel agent on the surface texture of three contemporary restorative materials; an appropriate bleaching procedure was performed on the specimens of each group. Scanning electron micrographs were produced at 60x, 200x, 1500x, and 2000x magnifications of the respective areas of the samples. The results showed that the effect of bleaching on the surface texture was material and time-dependent. Within the limitations of this study, it was concluded that bleaching with Zoom gel (25% hydrogen peroxide) did not cause major surface texture changes on the restorative materials. (Source: Ta…

Prevalence of several herpesviruses and human papillomavirus in acute apical abscesses
ConclusionsHCMV was the most frequent herpesvirus amongst the target viruses in samples from both large and small apical abscess lesions. In large lesions, EBV and HHV?6 tended to occur in coinfection with HCMV. Additional studies are required to elucidate the role of herpesviruses in the pathogenesis of periapical abscess.
