Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate the contribution of myeloid differentiation primary-response gene 88 (MyD88) on the differentiation of T helper type 17 (Th17) and regulatory T (Treg) cells and the emerging subgingival microbiota dysbiosis in Porphyromonas gingivalis-induced experimental periodontitis. METHODS Alveolar bone loss, infiltrated inflammatory cells, immunostained cells for tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), the receptor activator of nuclear factor-kB ligand (RANKL), and osteoprotegerin (OPG) were quantified by microcomputerized tomography and histological staining between age- and sex-matched homozygous littermates (wild-type [WT, Myd88+/+] and Myd88-/- on C57BL/6 background). The frequencies of Th17 and Treg cells in cervical lymph nodes (CLNs) and spleen were determined by flow cytometry. Cytokine expression in gingival tissues, CLNs, and spleens were studied by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Analysis of the composition of the subgingival microbiome and functional annotation of prokaryotic taxa (FAPROTAX) analysis were performed. RESULTS P. gingivalis-infected Myd88-/- mice showed alleviated bone loss, TRAP+ osteoclasts, and RANKL/OPG ratio compared to WT mice. A significantly higher percentage of Foxp3+CD4+ T cells in infected Myd88-/- CLNs and a higher frequency of RORγt+CD4+ T cells in infected WT mice was noted. Increased IL-10 and IL-17a expressions in gingival tissue at D14-D28 then declined in WT mice, whereas an opposite pattern was observed in Myd88-/- mice. The Myd88-/- mice exhibited characteristic increases in gram-positive species and species having probiotic properties, while gram-negative, anaerobic species were noted in WT mice. FAPROTAX analysis revealed increased aerobic chemoheterotrophy in Myd88-/- mice, whereas anaerobic chemoheterotrophy was noted in WT mice after P. gingivalis infection. CONCLUSIONS MyD88 plays an important role in inflammation-induced bone loss by modulating the dynamic equilibrium between Th17/Treg cells and dysbiosis in P. gingivalis-induced experimental periodontitis.

Abstract
Background/purpose Since its inception, the Journal of Dental Sciences (JDS) has aimed to publish quality articles relevant to all fields in dentistry. The purpose of this study was to analyze the bibliometric characteristics and dissected associated factors correlated with citation counts of classic articles published in the JDS. Materials and method Scopus® database was used to search the qualified articles published in JDS from 2009 to 2021. The bibliometric parameters, including journal impact factor (JIF), self-citation, study design, research field, geographic, country and institute of origin, inter-institute, inter-nation collaboration, keywords hotness and associated factors correlated with citation counts of classic articles were analyzed. Results One hundred and eight articles from Scopus® database were eligible for analysis. The citation counts of classic articles ranged from 12 to 192, the average citation was 22.02. The most common study design was the in vitro/in vivo, followed by the cross-sectional study, and the major research field were Dental Materials. The most productive country and institute is Taiwan, and Chung Shan Medical University, respectively. The trend of inter-institute (71.03%) and inter-nation (11.22%) collaboration steadily increased since 2009. By using the multivariable linear regression model, Preventive and Community Dentistry in the research field significantly increased the citation counts. Conclusion Despite its limitations, the escalating trends in JIFs, and JIFs without self-citations, and inter-nation and inter-institute collaboration of classic articles were noticed. Of all the dissected associated factors, Preventive and Community Dentistry in the research field significantly increased the citation counts of classic article.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dentists may be at a higher risk of developing carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) because of their use of frequent wrist and vibratory instruments at work; however, this issue remains unclear. Therefore, we conducted this study to clarify it. METHODS Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database was used for this nationwide population-based study. We identified 11,084 dentists, 74,901 non-dentist healthcare professionals (HCPs), and identical number of age- and sex-matched participants from the general population. Participants who had the diagnosis of CTS before 2007 were excluded. Between 2007 and 2011, the risk of developing CTS among dentists, non-dentist HCPs, and the general population was compared by following their medical histories. RESULTS The cumulative incidence rate of CTS among dentists was 0.5% during the 5-year follow-up period. In dentists, the risk was higher in women (women: 0.7%; men: 0.4%) and older individuals (≥60 years: 1.0%; <60 years: 0.4%). After adjusting for age, sex, and underlying comorbidities, dentists had a lower risk of CTS than the general population (adjusted odds ratio [AOR]: 0.65, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.45-0.92). Dentists had a higher risk for CTS compared with non-dentist HCPs, although the difference was not statistically significant (AOR: 1.21; 95% CI: 0.90-1.64). CONCLUSIONS In CTS, dentists had a lower risk than the general population and a trend of higher risk than non-dentist HCPs. The difference between dentists and non-dentist HCPs suggests that we should pay attention to dentists for potential occupational risk of this disease. However, further studies are warranted to better clarify it.

Abstract
In terms of a novel scaffold with well good osteoinductive and osteoconductive capacity, melatonin (Mel) possesses positive effects on chemical linkage in scaffold structures, which may allow osteogenic differentiation. The aim of this study is to fabricate Mel-loaded chitosan (CS) microparticles (MPs) as a novel bone substitute through generating a Mel sustained release system from Mel-loaded CS MPs and evaluating its effect on the osteogenic capacity of MC3T3-E1 in vitro. The physical-chemical characteristics of the prepared CS MPs were examined by both Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The released profile and kinetics of Mel from MPs were quantified, and the bioactivity of the released Mel on preosteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells was characterized in vitro. An in vitro drug release assay has shown high encapsulation efficiency and sustained release of Mel over the investigation period. In an osteogenesis assay, Mel-loaded CS MPs have significantly enhanced alkaline phosphatase (ALP) mRNA expression and ALP activity compared with the control group. Meanwhile, the osteoblast-specific differentiation genes, including runt related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), bone morphogentic protein-2 (Bmp2), collagen I (Col I), and osteocalcin (Ocn), were also significantly upregulated. Furthermore, quantificational alizarin red-based assay demonstrated that Mel-loaded CS MPs notably enhanced the calcium deposit of MC3T3-E1 compared with controls. In essence, Mel-loaded CS MPs can control the release of Mel for a period of time to accelerate osteogenic differentiation of preosteoblast cells in vitro.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to assess the prevalence of C-shaped canals in permanent mandibular second molars (SMs) and to determine whether its appearance was associated with the presence of distolingual root (DLR) in permanent mandibular first molars (FMs). METHOD AND MATERIALS Three hundred and eighty patients were qualified for evaluation of their FMs and SMs using cone beam computed tomography. The prevalence, distribution pattern, external root morphology, and the internal root canal anatomy of the examined molars were recorded and analyzed. Furthermore, the association between the root canal configurations of SMs and the appearance of DLR in FMs was also assessed. RESULTS The prevalence of SMs with C-shaped root canals was 44.7%. The most common root canal configuration type of the one-rooted SMs with C-shaped anatomy was C3 (45.6%), followed by C2 and C1. The frequency of C-shaped canals in SMs was 45.4% in Non-DLR group, 52.8% in unilateral DLR group, and 33.9% in bilateral DLR group, respectively. Moreover, the prevalence of C-shaped root canals in SMs with the presence of bilateral DLRs in FMs was significantly lowered. CONCLUSION The association between the presence of DLR in FMs and C-shaped canal configurations in neighboring SMs was surveyed, and the prevalence of C-shaped root canals in SMs with the presence of bilateral DLRs in FMs was found to be significantly lowered.

Abstract
PURPOSE To identify 100 top-cited articles published in periodontal journals and analyse the research trends by using citation analysis. MATERIALS AND METHODS 100 top-cited articles published in periodontal journals were retrieved by searching the database of the ISI Web of Science and Journal Citation reports. For each article, the following principal bibliometric parameters: authorship, geographic and institute origin, manuscript type, study design, scope of study, and citation count of each time period were analysed from 1965 to 2015. RESULTS The identified 100 top-cited articles were retrieved from five periodontal journals and citation counts were recorded between 262 and 1,693 times. For the institute of origin, the most productive institute, in terms of the number of 100 top-cited articles published, was the University of Gothenburg (Sweden) (n = 19), followed by the Forsyth Dental Center (USA) (n = 15). Most manuscripts were original research (n = 74), and the inflammatory periodontal disease (n = 59) was the most frequent topic studied. Interestingly, the trend of increase average citation reached significance for implantology (β = 26.75, P = 0.003) and systemic interactions (β = 29.83, P = 0.005), but not for inflammatory disease (β = -10.30, P = 0.248) and tissue regeneration (β = 9.04, P = 0.081). By using multivariable linear regression in a generalised linear model, suitable published journal (Journal of Clinical Periodontology), geographic regions (Europe), more intense international collaboration, adequate manuscript type (review article) and study design (systematic review) could be attributed to escalating average citation counts in implantology (all P < 0.05). However, for systemic interactions, only geographic region and study design were significantly associated with the increasing citation trend. CONCLUSIONS These principal bibliometric characteristics revealed escalated trends in average citation count in implantology throughout time.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study sought to determine which factors are correlated to a higher risk of lingual plate perforation (LPP) when placing a virtual implant in the area of the anticipated extraction site of the posterior mandible. METHODS Computed tomographic images of 300 patients (1,279 teeth) were analyzed in regard to the shape of the mandible (convergent, parallel, or undercut type), dimensional parameters of lingual concavity (angle, height, depth) and its relation to the inferior alveolar canal (zones A, B, C), distance from root apex to inferior alveolar canal, and probability of LPP. The odds ratio of variables was determined by multiple logistic regression modeling. RESULTS The overall probability of LPPs on virtual implant placement was 3.1%. This perforation was most commonly observed at the second molar and with a U-type ridge. After adjusting cofounders, a concave point located in zone A is 17.34 times more likely to have a LPP than one in zone C. The probability of LPPs was reduced by 34% for every 1-millimeter increase in distance from root apex to inferior alveolar canal on virtual implant placement of posterior mandible region. CONCLUSIONS Three-dimensional cone-beam computed tomographic imaging is essential for planning immediate implant placement in the anticipated extraction sites of the posterior mandible region as proved by anatomic findings that can only be understood from preoperative imaging analysis. PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS Presurgical cross-sectional images can be analyzed to identify anatomic features relative to the lingual concavities in the posterior mandible region, which can help to avoid unpleasant complications, specifically when performing immediate implant procedures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the prevalence and morphological parameters of lingual concavity, and whether these factors are related to a higher risk of inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) injury when performing an immediate implant surgery in posterior mandible region. METHODS The CBCT images from 237 subjects (1008 teeth) were analysed the shape of the mandibles (C, P, U type), dimensional parameters of lingual concavity (angle, height, depth), and its relation to inferior alveolar canal (IAC) (A, B, C zone), RAC (distance from root apex to IAC) and probability of IAN injury. Multiple logistic regression modelling to determine the odds ratio of variables that made an important contribution to the probability of IAN injury and to adjust for confounding variables. RESULTS The U type ridge (46.7%) and the most concave point located at C zone (48.8%) are most prevalent in this region. The mandibular second molar presents highest risk for IAN injury than other tooth type (p<0.001), which were 3.82 times to occur IAN injury than the mandibular second premolar. The concave point located at A zone and B zone were 7.82 and 3.52 times than C zone to have IAN damage, respectively. The probability of IAN injury will reduce 26% for every 1mm increase in RAC (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS The tooth type, morphological features of lingual concavities, and RAC are associated with risks of IAN injury during immediate implant placement. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Pre-surgical mapping of the IAC and identification of its proximity relative to the lingual concavity in the posterior mandible regions may avoid unpleasant complications, specifically when performing immediate implant procedures.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Intraoral anesthesia is probably the most commonly used procedure in dentistry. METHODS Although inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) anesthesia is one of the safest procedures to anesthetize the mandibular teeth, side effects of IANB anesthesia can still give rise to potential risks for patients. Fortunately, most observed alterations are transient and self-limited. RESULTS The complications of IANB anesthesia are varied in nature and could be specifically categorized into systemic, localized, and distant complications. When the complications occur around the orofacial structures including the temporomandibular joint, middle ear, facial skin, and the eye, which are away from the oral cavity, it can be defined as distant complications. However, to our best knowledge, the concomitant occurrence of neurologic phenomena such as Horner syndrome combined with cutaneous complications in a patient receiving IANB anesthesia has never been discussed. CONCLUSIONS In this exceptional case, the unusual Horner syndrome manifestations related to unilateral ptosis, miosis, and anisocoria were simultaneously developed with skin ischemia, paresthesia, and asymmetric flushing after the administration of IANB anesthesia.
