Anchorage onto deciduous teeth: effectiveness of early rapid maxillary expansion in increasing dental arch dimension and improving anterior crowding
Conclusions The Haas expander anchored to the deciduous teeth is effective in increasing the dental arch width in patients with a lateral cross-bite. The dimensions of the dental arch were modified earlier toward the values of the permanent dentition. (Source: Progress in Orthodontics)

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.

Quantitative analysis of 3-dimensional facial soft tissue photographic images: technical methods and clinical application
Conclusions The results of this investigation suggest that it is possible to average multiple facial images of highly variable topology. The immediate application of this research will be rapid and detailed diagnostic imaging analysis for orthodontic and surgical treatment planning. There is great potential for application to anthropometrics and genomics. This investigation resulted in establishment of a protocol for mapping the surface of the human face in three dimensions.

Neuropathic Orofacial Pain
Abstract Dental practitioners will be exposed to patients experiencing neuropathic pain of the orofacial region at some point in their careers. The pain can be distressing and affect quality of life. Therefore, an understanding of the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management of neuropathic orofacial pain is essential since some patients will convincingly express this pain to be originating from a dental source. Neuropathic pain may be episodic such as trigeminal neuralgias, or continuous, which includes peripheral painful trigeminal traumatic neuropathy, persistent idiopathic facial pain, neuritis, and burning mouth syndrome. Research has revealed that these various neuropathic pains often have specific treatment modalities. Hence, establishing an accurate diagnosis and un…
