The Journal of Applied Oral Science welcomes the Co-Editor-in-Chief
This study evaluated the influence of drying techniques at room temperature and microwave oven on the linear dimensional change, compressive strength and detail reproduction in type IV dental stones. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Three type IV dental stone brands were selected; elite Rock, Shera Premium and Durone IV. Two different drying protocols were tested in 4 groups (n=10); G1 – room temperature (25±4ºC) dried for 2 hours; G2 – room temperature dried for 24 hours; G3 – room temperature dried for 7 days and G4 – microwave oven dried at 800 W for 5 minutes and after 2 hours at room temperature. After drying, the samples were assayed for dimensional charges. The sample surface was submitted to the ImageTool 3.0 software for compressive strength in a universal testing machine with a cell load …

Influence of implant number on the biomechanical behaviour of mandibular implant-retained/supported overdentures: A three-dimensional finite element analysis
Conclusions and clinical significance Single-implant-retained mandibular overdentures do not show damaging strain concentration in the bone around the only implant and may be a cost-effective treatment option for edentulous patients. A third implant can be placed between the original two when patients rehabilitated by two-implant overdentures report constant and obvious denture rotation around the fulcrum line.

Corticotomy and Tissue Engineering for Orthodontists: A Critical History and Commentary
Twenty-first century discoveries in cellular and molecular biology have explained how clinicians in medicine and dentistry can engineer tissue regeneration in a way that makes room for orthodontists. This presumes that they define themselves as dentoalveolar orthopedists and restrict corticotomy procedures to “selective alveolar decortication,” with or without grafting. With a new vision (orthodontic tooth movement, through a healing wound), orthodontists can modulate physiological internal strains—similar to those of distraction osteogenesis in long bones—to define novel and more stable alveolus phenotypes, reducing the need for bicuspid extractions and minimizing orthognathic surgery morbidity. The aim of this treatise, using critical rationalism and analytical commentary, is to …
