This study tested two different dental devices to see which one moves upper back molars better in teenagers with a specific type of overbite. Thirty patients aged 15 to 18 took part. The goal was to find a more effective way to create space in the mouth without removing teeth.

This study tested two different types of implant-supported dentures in 16 people aged 60-70 who had no teeth. The goal was to see which design better preserved gum health, reduced plaque, and limited Candida fungus growth. Both denture types used special attachments to stay secur…

This study tested whether adding cabergoline to letrozole helps women with PCOS ovulate more effectively than letrozole alone. 100 women with PCOS took part. Researchers tracked ovulation using ultrasound. The goal was to see if the combination improves ovulation rates.

This study tested a gel made from kaempferol, a natural plant compound, placed directly into the implant site during dental surgery in 30 patients. The kaempferol group showed higher bone-building activity in the first weeks and greater bone density after 6 months compared to the…
