Evidence Mapping and Quality Assessment of Systematic Reviews in Dental Traumatology: A 54 Months Update.

Background/aims: This update of previously conducted evidence mapping and quality analysis of systematic reviews related to dental traumatology aimed to assess the distribution of systematic reviews published in a period of past 54 months in various domains and subdomains and evaluate their quality. An attempt was also made to compare the trends of methodological and quality characteristics between the two Evidence Mapping studies.

Methods: An a priori protocol was prepared as per the recommendations of Global Evidence Mapping and registered in Open Science Framework.

Effect of temperature on rehydration and fracture resistance of reattached tooth fragments after crown fracture: An in vitro study.

Background: Uncomplicated crown fractures of maxillary anterior teeth are common dental injuries, and the bonding of fractured fragments is recommended for management. Rehydration of fragments improves bonding and fracture resistance. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare the fracture resistance of the reattached tooth fragment of the incisor crown after rehydration using either a steamer or a humidifier.

Dentofacial manifestations in a child with Jalili syndrome.

Jalili syndrome (JS) (MIM#217080) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder with oculo-dental malformations. The clinical phenotype is characterized by the presence of Cone-Rod Dystrophy (CRD) and Amelogenesis Imperfecta (AI). Genetic mechanism entails a mutation in the CNNM4, a metal transporter gene located on Chromosome 2q11.
