Summary: This systematic review examined the influence of implant-supported fixed complete dentures, implant-supported overdentures, and removable complete dentures on speech articulation disorders in individuals with at least one completely edentulous jaw. The study included eight clinical trials and found that distortions of the /s/ phoneme were more common with the use of maxillary fixed complete dentures. However, the evidence quality for speech articulation disorders was low, indicating a need for further research.

Summary: Individuals with personality disorders have an increased risk of suicide, with lower levels of extraversion associated with suicidal ideation (SI) and higher levels of extraversion associated with suicide attempts (SA) compared to SI only. Other Big Five traits were not independently related to suicide outcomes, suggesting the introversion-extraversion dimension may play a key role in distinguishing different suicide behaviors in this population.

Summary: Personality traits did not significantly change before and after dental bleaching, with conscientiousness and extraversion being predominant traits. Significant improvements were observed in psychosocial impact before and after treatment, while quality of life scores remained consistent. Overall, patients undergoing dental treatment showed increased self-confidence and reduced concerns about dental aesthetics and social impact.

Summary: This study investigates the impacts of built environment on the travel satisfaction of rural residents in Chengdu, China. The findings indicate that building density, road density, the number of accessible markets, and private car ownership have positive impacts on travel satisfaction, while public transport has a negative impact. Therefore, improving building and road densities, increasing the number of accessible markets, and enhancing the convenience of rural public transport services can further improve travel satisfaction.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of personality on postural control. The results showed that extraversion and agreeableness were the dominant personality traits in the healthy individuals. There were significant negative associations between nonlinear parameters and personality traits, but the relationships detected were weak. Therefore, factors such as visual control and the size of the support area may play a more significant role in describing postural control.

Summary: The study found that masticatory satisfaction among wearers of removable partial dentures is strongly linked to their oral health-related quality of life, especially the ability to comfortably eat with the dentures. This indicates that the psychological comfort and physical ability subscales of oral health-related quality of life have a significant impact on masticatory satisfaction.

Summary: The purpose of this study was to analyze the clinical and patient-reported outcomes of patients restored with non-precious metal alloy double crown-retained removable partial dentures (NP-D-RPDs). The results showed that non-precious metal alloy partially veneered NP-D-RPDs are an efficient alternative to precious metal alloy RPDs with excellent patient-reported outcomes.

Summary: This study investigated the relationship between self-reported self-harm, dislike of dentofacial features, and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL). The findings revealed significant associations between dislike of dentofacial appearance and self-harm behavior, as well as between OHRQoL and self-harm incidence.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of a three-sided sonic-powered toothbrush compared to a conventional manual toothbrush on oral health and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL). The results showed that using the sonic toothbrush led to better oral health and OHRQoL, with reduced plaque deposits and improved OHRQoL scores after 1 month.

Summary: There were no significant differences in patient-reported pain, discomfort, and difficulty in maintaining proper brushing between nickel-titanium closed-coil springs (CS) and elastomeric power chains (PC) when used for space closure. However, CS were less tolerated by patients but showed a faster rate of space closure and a greater amount of movement compared to PC.

Summary: The study compared the bacteria debridement efficacy of the first and second generations of sonic root canal irrigant activation systems. The results showed that activation of 2% NaOCl with either EndoActivator or SmartLite Pro EndoActivator significantly reduced the overall intracanal bacterial load compared to syringe-side-vented needle delivery. However, delivering 2% NaOCl for 5 minutes using the syringe-side-vented needle produced better bacteria debridement than either sonic agitation system.

Summary: The study compares the experience of patients seen using teledentistry with traditional Orofacial Pain and TMD visits. Results indicated a borderline difference in effectively using teledentistry for follow-ups among different age groups, but no significant differences were found in patients' experience between virtual and conventional visits. This suggests that high-quality dental care services can be provided remotely without adversely affecting patient experience or quality of care.

Summary: This study characterized the surface topography and evaluated the biological responses of various cells to a novel 3D-printed dental implant. The surface of the implant showed a highly interconnected porous architecture and roughness, leading to good adhesion and growth of human oral osteoblasts, gingival fibroblasts, mesenchymal stem cells, and monocytes. These findings suggest that this 3D-printed implant has excellent potential for clinical applications.
