ABSTRACT Background and Aims Oral Lichen Planus (OLP) is a common chronic inflammatory autoimmune illness that mostly affects the oral mucosa but may also affect other mucous membrane. It has higher prevalence in female patients of fourth to sixth decade life with reticular being commonest clinical variant. Clinical assessment, patient history, biopsy findings, immunofluorescence were used diagnose OLP. This study aimed assess research publication trends therapeutic strategies treatment OLP,...
Introduction: Dental education is undergoing a major transformation due to evolving healthcare needs, technological advancements, and the demand for dental practitioners meet diverse needs of global patient community. Competency-based (CBE) at forefront this change, focusing on what students are competent in upon graduation. Unlike traditional models, CBE emphasises practical skills, critical thinking, problem-solving. Methods: This article explores shift towards education, examining...
Background The present study, grounded in the Stress-Adaptation-Growth theory, aims to explore mental well-being among dental technology students during post-pandemic period. Materials and methods A mixed-method approach was employed undergraduate Malaysia. Depression, Anxiety, Stress Scale (DASS-21) adapted modified for students. content of questionnaire validated by two experienced faculty experts. Construct validity internal consistency were measured. An online survey created using Google...
Background: Root canal sealers and repair materials should have the desirable physical, chemical, biological characteristics, an antibacterial effect if possible. There is little information available on biocompatibility of new market. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) can offer trustworthy data to examine chemical structures; another technique for revealing elements in constituents that may contribute cytotoxicity these scanning electron microscopy (SEM), with goal elemental...
Objective: To evaluate the awareness, knowledge, and attitude on monkeypox viral infection among preclinical clinical dental students in Malaysia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted 229 via an online self-reported questionnaire. The questionnaire included 3 items 15 9 2 open-ended questions. Data were presented as frequencies percentages. Chi -square test used to compare knowledge awareness scores between content analysis performed for responses. Results: Preclinical aware of...
This current paper aims to review the literature on root canal configuration (RCC) and structure of permanent mandibular premolars. To find published scientific RCC premolars up July 2022, a systematic search four electronic databases was performed. The studies were selected, rendering predetermined point reference: “mandibular 2nd premolar”, “root system”, “morphology canal”, configuration”, “morphology”, along with “anatomy” premolars”. Cross-referencing screening through bibliographies...
Abstract Background The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in dentistry has the potential to revolutionise field dental technologies. However, technicians’ views on use AI technology are still sparse literature. This qualitative study aimed explore perceptions technicians regarding their laboratory practice. Methods Twelve with at least five years professional experience and currently working Malaysia agreed participate one-to-one in-depth online interviews. Interviews were...
Abstract Objectives This study aimed to compare the polymerization shrinkage and degree of conversion new zirconia-reinforced rice husk nanohybrid composite with commercialized microhybrid nanofilled composites. Materials Methods Overall, 180 samples were used for (buoyancy optical methods) tests in which they divided into Group 1, (Filtek-Z350- XT; 3M ESPE, St Paul, MN 55144-1000, USA), 2, (Zmack-Comp), 3, (Zr-Hybrid). Polymerization test was performed using buoyancy methods. For method,...
The current study aimed to explore the perceptions of high-performing undergraduate dental students in learning materials science. One-on-one semi-structured interviews with who scored 80 marks and above were conducted using an online video-chat platform. A purposeful sampling method was employed, six fulfilled criteria. audio-recorded, transcribed verbatim, analyzed qualitatively a thematic approach. Three major themes identified: (1) Learning strategies, (2) enablers barriers, (3) Coping...
Introduction: Dental materials science is one of the core courses for Malaysian undergraduate dental programmes, which has been primarily taught through a series didactic lectures during preclinical phase. In accordance with newly revised national competency statement, education moving toward competency-based education, hence reformation curriculum warranted. Methods: Curriculum design including common teaching, learning and assessments methods were described analysed. The practices reviewed...
Objectives: To compare the apical sealing ability of four endodontic sealers based on glucose penetration method and validate uses contralateral teeth to provide a well-balanced experimental group. Materials methods: One-hundred-and-twenty (sixty pair) extracted lower premolars were selected undergone strict radiographic protocol. Root canal anatomy each pair was matched buccolingually mesiodistally according inclusion criteria (single canal, mature foramen, type, width, length, curvature)....
The usage of bioceramic-based root canal sealers has escalated over the years due to their excellent properties. present study aimed fabricate a novel algin incorporated bioactive glass 58S calcium-silicate (Bio-G) sealer and characterise its surface microstructure chemical compositions in comparison commercially available bioceramic (BioRoot RCS iRoot SP).The powder form experimental Bio-G consisted synthesised BG particle, calcium silicate, zirconia dioxide, carbonate alginic acid as...
