Evidence regarding the relation between SARS-CoV-2 mortality and underlying medical condition is scarce. We conducted an observational, retrospective study based on Romanian official data about location, age, gender comorbidities for COVID-19 fatalities. Our findings indicate that males, hypertension, diabetes, obesity chronic kidney disease were most frequent in fatalities, burden of was low, prognosis 1-year survival probability high sample. shows age-dependent pairs could be a negative...
Background and Objectives: The ever more complex modern dental education requires permanent adaptation to expanding medical knowledge new advancements in digital technologies as well intensification of interdisciplinary collaboration. Our study presents a newly developed computerized method allowing virtual case simulation on modular models 3D-printing the obtained models; additionally, undergraduate students' opinion advanced is investigated this paper. Materials Methods: Based...
Our professional activity is constantly under pressure from a multitude of elements and factors that can be classified into the four components VUCA phenomenon-volatility, uncertainty, complexity, ambiguity-components define turbulence challenges external environment. Considering general this phenomenon, we designed new dimension specific to healthcare field within which have identified analyzed all influence main actors doctor-patient relationship effects occur system in born. In context,...
This research analyzes the dental hygiene habits of schoolchildren from parents’ perspectives, using STEPS approach recommended by World Health Organization. The key points oral health care in children include role family encouraging and maintaining proper practices. study aimed to assess practices with on-site dentists Romania. Additionally, it sought establish correlations between these behaviors educational levels adults whom they live with. participants were selected zero grade eighth...
Background/Objectives: This paper brings to light the results of extensive research on dimension dental care in Romania terms priorities and policies defined at governmental level for a 25-year period (1999–2023). aims present both individual ecosystem perspectives influence way oral health strategies are shaped Romania. Methods: The data collected analyzed through prism “iron triangle healthcare”, focusing evolution from perspective interrelationship three important components: cost,...
Background. Despite dentistry’s alarmingly high energy use, plastic waste, and travel emissions, research on Romanian dental students’ sustainability awareness is absent. This study aimed to assess their knowledge of the environmental impact materials practices, hypothesizing that early exposure education would benefit preclinical students most. Materials Methods. A cross-sectional survey using a form questionnaire with 15 items was conducted 1800 at Carol Davila University Medicine...
Abstract Objective The present study examined the potential use of computed tomography panoramic mandibular indices on cone beam CT (CBCT) for assessment bone density in patients with primary and secondary causes low mass. Study design enrolled 104 postmenopausal women 66 endocrine-related mass (diabetes mellitus, acromegaly, Cushing's syndrome), who underwent dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) CBCT scanning. assessed correlation between DXA parameters (lumbar spine, femoral neck, total...
(1) Background: Intraoral scanners undergo rapid advancements in hardware and software, prompting frequent updates by manufacturers. (2) Aim: This study aimed to quantitatively assess the precision of full dental arch digital impressions obtained from four different intraoral scanners: Trios 5—3SHAPE, Copenhagen, Denmark, CEREC Primescan— Dentsply Sirona, New York, NY, USA, Planmeca Emerald S—Planmeca Oy, Helsinki, Finland, Medit i700—Medit Corp, Seoul, Republic Korea.

Oral health is situated within the framework of global agenda, addressing facets pertaining to well-being and quality life. The research based on need address variables at community level improve schoolchildren’s oral promote healthy behaviors aims carry out an in-depth analysis from perspective factors that influence children’s health. Step 1, designed by World Health Organization, was utilized. An easy-to-use web interface created for data collection. statistical consisted using...
Since their first mention, almost 60 years ago, there were a plethora of articles about oxidative stress and antioxidants, published in wide range journals (biochemistry, cell physiology, molecular biology or environmental biology). Also, the last decade definition (OS) undergone different changes, currently OS is seen as disruption redox signalling control. This review aims to offer perspective Complexity Theory on antioxidants framework, diabetes disease taken an example.
Dental education was severely challenged by the COVID-19 pandemic worldwide.

Hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis L.) and oregano (Origanum vulgare L.), traditionally used for their antimicrobial properties, can be considered viable candidates nanotechnology applications, in particular the phytosynthesis of metal nanoparticles. The present work aims to evaluate potential application hyssop silver nanoparticles, as well biological activities extracts obtained nanoparticles (antioxidant potential, cell viability, inflammation level cytotoxicity human fibroblasts HFIB-G line...
In contemporary dentistry, several 3D printing techniques, including a stereolithography apparatus (SLA), digital light processing (DLP), liquid crystal display (LCD), and PolyJet inkjet technology (PolyJet), are employed for model production. Despite their widespread use, there remains paucity of the literature regarding trueness precision these devices in dental applications. Existing studies comparing accuracy models manufactured by different technologies yield disparate conclusions...
Objective. The present study examined the potential use of computed tomography panoramic mandibular indices on cone beam CT (CBCT) for assessment bone density in postmenopausal women with low mass. Study design. We enrolled 104 who performed dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) using a DXA scanner and mental foramen region CBCT NewTom VGi EVO Cone Beam 3D system. assessed relationship between parameters: lumbar, femoral neck total hip T score, mineral (BMD), lumbar trabecular score (TBS)...
Background: As implant treatment cases increase, many of failure/side effects also occur. Generally, dental clinics determine the density jawbone using cone beam CT (CBCT). Considering known potential role this tool for bone assessment in primary osteoporosis, study evaluated patients with secondary endocrine causes low mass. Methods: The included 83 osteoporosis who were by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), trabecular score (TBS), and mental foramen (MF) region CBCT. following CBCT...
