Summary: This study aimed to identify predictive factors for complications associated with unerupted maxillary canines. A total of 83 cone beam computed tomograms (CBCT) from November 1, 2021 to October 31, 2022 were included, with 110 unerupted canines detected. Independent variables included gender, age, and canine position, while outcome variables were complications such as external root resorption, dilaceration of adjacent tooth, dentigerous cyst, canine ankylosis, and adjacent teeth malposition. Logistic regression analysis revealed that the vertical position of unerupted canines was a predictor for adjacent tooth dilacerations and malposition. Age was a predictive factor for dentigerous cysts, with each additional year of age reducing the chance of occurrence by 1.5-fold. Early evaluation and timely treatment of unerupted canines are crucial in preventing complications.

Summary: This study compared the qualitative and quantitative dimensions of maxillary basal, dentoalveolar, and dental structures in patients with unilateral or bilateral impacted canines to their normal peers. The results showed significant differences in measurements between the impacted canine groups and the control group, including reduced basal and dentoalveolar dimensions and wider and shorter canines in the impacted groups. The bone density around impacted canines was also higher. There were no significant differences between unilateral and bilateral impacted canines.

Summary: The study found that the use of 3D imaging is significantly associated with a reduced risk of intraoperative biliary tract injury during laparoscopic cholecystectomy, especially in acute cholecystitis patients. There were no significant differences in conversion to open surgery and duration of surgery between the 3D and 2D imaging groups.

Summary: The study on downward-looking linear array synthetic aperture radar aims to achieve cross-track super-resolution through 1-D compressed sensing and proposes a novel 2-D mismatch compensation method. This approach directly processes 2-D mismatch with a 2-D joint model, simplifying the mismatch as a sparse linear model suitable for various CS reconstruction algorithms, resulting in better reconstruction performance while reducing memory cost and computation load. Simulation experiments demonstrate the validity of the proposed method.

Summary: This study compared the effectiveness of traditional teaching mode, the 3D image generated by a hand-held scanner, and a self-developed 2D image fitting 3D imaging method in neuroanatomy education. The results showed that the performance of the hand-held scanner 3D imaging group was better than the traditional teaching group, and the 2D fitting 3D method group performed significantly better. This method provides a cost-effective and easy-to-master solution for achieving realistic reduction in neuroanatomy education.

Summary: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly used as a radiation-free alternative to computed tomography (CT) for musculoskeletal pathologies. However, the imaging of hard tissues such as cortical bone remains challenging. Recent developments in MRI-based bone visualization show promise for diagnostic and treatment planning purposes in orthopedic care. MRI alone provides valuable information on both bone and soft tissues.

Summary: This study assessed the effect of orthodontic treatment on facial attractiveness and found that it has a clinically weak improvement on facial attractiveness compared to no treatment. The combination of orthodontics and orthognathic surgery showed a similar effect compared to orthodontic treatment alone. The quality of the included studies was variable.

Summary: The aim of this study was to evaluate changes in pharyngeal airway (PA) after bimaxillary surgery (BMS). The results showed that BMS led to an increase in PA dimensions, which remained stable at the 5-year follow-up. Additionally, the surgery was associated with clinical improvement in sleep-disordered breathing.

Summary: The study aimed to determine the force reduction needed to avoid root resorption and maintain the efficiency of orthodontic mechanics for periodontally compromised teeth. Finite element analysis was used to simulate different conditions and movements, and the risk of root resorption was evaluated based on the hydrostatic stress at the periodontal ligament. The results showed a linear relationship between force reduction and alveolar bone height loss, providing recommendations for intrusion with bilateral or buccal mini implants.

Summary: This study aimed to develop interdisciplinary recommendations for the management of orofacial manifestations of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) and to create a future research agenda for the treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) arthritis in children with JIA. The recommendations were developed through online surveying, literature review, consensus meetings, and Delphi study iterations. Twelve recommendations and a future research agenda were outlined, filling an important gap in current clinical practice.

Summary: To improve the efficiency of orthodontic treatment, various appliances and approaches have been introduced. Skeletal anchorage improves biomechanical efficiency, while corticotomy shows promise in terms of quality. A finite element study suggests that modifying bone density can accelerate and prolong translation movement. The lingual technique is advantageous for controlling lower incisors' inclination. Invisible aligner therapy may not offer biomechanical advantages for certain movements, but it is indicated for simpler movements and in hybrid therapy.

Summary: Digital technology has revolutionized the approach to diagnosing, treating, and monitoring orthodontic patients. The use of tools like intraoral scanners, 3D facial images, and CBCTs allows for improved diagnosis, although limitations still exist. CAD/CAM methods are now playing a significant role in orthodontic treatments. Integrating these new workflows into postgraduate teaching presents challenges that need to be addressed.

Summary: This study investigated the relationship between TMD, pain, jaw and masticatory function at different stages of orthognathic surgical treatment. The results showed that orthognathic surgery did not have a negative impact on TMD, and the jaw function and pain levels were similar to the control group at 24 months follow-up. However, the masticatory function was affected by the surgery and required a longer recovery time. Furthermore, it was confirmed that pain and TMD were associated with limitations in jaw function and impacts on masticatory function.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between ectopic canine eruption and severe apical root resorption (RR) in upper incisors, as well as the timing of diagnosis and type of intervention conducted. It was found that timely palpation for canine eruption significantly reduced the odds for incisor RR. Radiographic examination is highly recommended if the canine cannot be palpated at 10 years of age.

Summary: The study aimed to summarize the current knowledge on the use of orthopaedic functional appliances (OFA) in managing unilateral craniofacial microsomia (UCM). The results suggest limited evidence supporting the efficacy of stand-alone and combination treatment with OFA for mild-to-moderate UCM-related dentofacial deformities in the short term. However, there is a lack of evidence regarding treatment protocols and the effect on the condyles and the temporomandibular joint (TMJ).
