• Occlusal dysesthesia : a topical narrative review

  21 mai 2015, par M. Melis, K. H. Zawawi
  Occlusal dysesthesia (OD) is a disorder characterised by the sensation of uncomfortable bite with no obvious occlusal discrepancy. It is usually associated with emotional distress and is elicited by dental occlusal procedures. Multiple dental treatments are often provided to try to resolve the (...)

• Dental implants inserted in male versus female patients : a systematic review and meta-analysis

  18 mai 2015, par B. R. Chrcanovic, T. Albrektsson, A. Wennerberg
  The aim of this meta-analysis was to test the null hypothesis of no difference in the failure rates, marginal bone loss (MBL) and post-operative infection for implants inserted in male or female patients, against the alternative hypothesis of a difference. An electronic search without time or (...)

• Influence of surgical orthodontic treatment on masticatory function in skeletal Class III patients

  15 mai 2015, par T. Kubota, T. Yagi, H. Tomonari, T. Ikemori, S. Miyawaki
  Skeletal Class III patients exhibit malocclusion characterised by Angle Class III and anterior crossbite, and their occlusion shows total or partially lateral crossbite of the posterior teeth. Most patients exhibit lower bite force and muscle activity than non-affected subjects. While (...)

• Evaluation of articulation simulation system using artificial maxillectomy models

  14 mai 2015, par M. E. Elbashti, M. Hattori, Y. I. Sumita, H. Taniguchi
  Acoustic evaluation is valuable for guiding the treatment of maxillofacial defects and determining the effectiveness of rehabilitation with an obturator prosthesis. Model simulations are important in terms of pre-surgical planning and pre- and post-operative speech function. This study aimed to (...)

• Oral perception of liquid volume changes with age

  13 mai 2015, par E. Kamarunas, G. H. McCullough, M. Mennemeier, T. Munn
  Bolus volume has been widely studied, and research has demonstrated a variety of physiological impacts on swallowing and swallowing disorders. Oral perception of bolus volume has not, to our knowledge, been investigated in association with normal ageing processes. Research suggests many sensory (...)
