Teledentistry—the use of information and communication technologies to deliver dental care, consultation, education, and public health services across geographic distances—has undergone an unprecedented transformation in recent years. While the concept dates to the 1990s, the COVID-19 pandemic catal

The field of endodontics has undergone a paradigm shift over the past two decades. Traditional root canal therapy, while effective at eliminating infection and preserving teeth, ultimately results in a non-vital tooth that is more brittle and susceptible to fracture. Regenerative endodontics offers

The human oral cavity harbors one of the most diverse and dynamic microbial communities in the body, second only to the gut in complexity. Advances in culture-independent molecular techniques—particularly 16S rRNA gene sequencing and shotgun metagenomics—have transformed our understanding of the ora

Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a serious adverse event characterized by exposed necrotic bone in the maxillofacial region that persists for more than eight weeks in patients with current or previous antiresorptive or antiangiogenic therapy and no history of head and neck radi

The dental patient population is aging, and the prevalence of chronic medical conditions continues to rise. The World Health Organization projects that by 2050, the proportion of the global population over 60 years will double from 12% to 22%, with a corresponding increase in the burden of multimorb

Saliva has emerged as a powerful diagnostic fluid that reflects the physiological and pathological state of the body. As an ultrafiltrate of blood, saliva contains a complex mixture of proteins, nucleic acids, metabolites, and microorganisms that originate from multiple sources: salivary glands, gin

Peri-implantitis has emerged as one of the most significant complications in implant dentistry, affecting an estimated 20% of patients and 10% of implants at the patient and implant levels respectively. As the global population of dental implants grows, the burden of peri-implant disease is expandin

Molar Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH) is a qualitative developmental enamel defect affecting one to four first permanent molars, frequently with concurrent involvement of permanent incisors. First described systematically by Weerheijm and colleagues in 2001, MIH has since been recognized as a globa

Digital Smile Design (DSD) has revolutionized aesthetic dentistry by providing a systematic, communication-centered approach to treatment planning. Developed by Dr. Christian Coachman in 2007, DSD integrates facial and dental analysis, intraoral and extraoral digital data, and interdisciplinary coll

Additive manufacturing, commonly known as 3D printing, has transformed dentistry over the past decade from a niche prototyping tool into an integral component of digital workflows. The technology enables the fabrication of surgical guides, dental models, temporary and permanent restorations, denture
