Purpose: The idea of psychological ownership (PO) has been utilized in a variety of contexts, but the significance and lessons learned from using PO in dental clinical education have not been investigated. A detailed long-term study of PO in dental clinical education will allow us to understand the effectiveness of this practice. The purpose of this paper is to compare undergraduate (UG) student's clinical performance before and after the PO system was implemented.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective study was conducted with around 70-80 students in an academic year from June 2012 to June 2019. Through ownership quality, four-handed dentistry, observation and assistance, supply of must-haves, and measurable outcomes, the clinical performance of students in pre- and post-PO systems was compared.
Results: The quantum of overall clinical procedures performed by the UG students was 8,214 and 13,753 in pre-PO and post-PO, respectively. Chi-squared tests performed unveil that there exists a statistically significant difference in the quantum of clinical procedures performed by UG after the implementation of PO.
Conclusion: The results of our study clearly state that there was a significant increase in the quantum of clinical procedures performed by UG students after the implementation of the PO system.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the survival outcomes of dental implants placed in the pterygoid region and assess the potential influence of multiple clinical variables on their survival.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective chart review was conducted on pterygoid implants placed over a 9-year period at the University of Connecticut Department of Prosthodontics. All pterygoid implants were placed by a single board-certified prosthodontist following a standardized surgical protocol.

Purpose: To present a novel digital workflow (the Columbus Digital Bridge Protocol) for immediately loaded full-arch rehabilitations, integrating digital technologies throughout diagnostic, surgical and prosthetic phases, with a focus on the application of intraoral photogrammetry scanning.
Materials And Methods: The workflow presented in this article, successfully implemented in 14 patients, includes standardised clinical steps: digital diagnostic planning through matching of facial scans and CBCT data, surgical placement of four implants following tooth extraction, immediate post-surgical intraoral photogrammetry scanning using a three-step procedure (i.e.

Introduction: This in vitro study evaluated how different forces applied to the dental drill handle during static computer-assisted implant surgery influence surgical guide deformation and implant placement accuracy.
Methods: Twenty-four virtual implants were divided into six groups (0-10 N, in 2 N increments). Surgical guides were scanned under loaded conditions, and deviations were quantified by superimposition with the baseline model.

Previous studies have shown that the pre-transplant C-reactive protein (CRP)/platelet ratio (CP ratio) is a predictor of survival. The aim of this multicenter retrospective study was to evaluate the clinical significance of CP ratio in patients with malignant lymphoma (ML) who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHCT). The cohort included patients with ML who underwent first alloHCT from 2007 to 2021.
