Abstract: The preservation of oral function, the integrity of the arch, and the avoidance of early tooth loss all depend on restorative therapy for primary molars. Because of its strength and simplicity of installation, stainless steel crowns (SSCs) have long been regarded as the gold-standard material for full-coverage restorations in pediatric dentistry. But as aesthetic standards and biocompatibility issues have grown, new restorative materials like Bioflex crowns—flexible, aesthetically pleasing crowns that conform well to gingival contours—have emerged. This study aimed.....

Abstract: Skin aging is the result of progressive changes in skin structure and function, impacting its elasticity, hydration, and regeneration capacity. The search for regenerative therapies has led to the development of innovative formulations that combine different biofunctional active ingredients. Notable among these components are exosomes derived from Raphanus sativus (radish), nanometric extracellular vesicles rich in proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, capable of modulating inflammation, stimulating collagen and elastin synthesis, and promoting tissue repair. Combined.....

Abstract: Ocular defects resulting from trauma or surgical interventions present significant clinical challenges with profound psychological implications for patients. This case report documents the successful prosthetic rehabilitation of a 24-year-old patient who presented with an enucleated eye socket following trauma 10 years prior, which had resulted in diminished self-confidence and social functioning. The rehabilitation process involved a systematic approach beginning with primary diagnostic impressions using irreversible hydrocolloid material, followed by fabrication.....

Abstract: Background: Dyslipidaemia is an increasingly recognized comorbidity in individuals with tuberculosis (TB), potentially arising from infection-induced metabolic alterations and drug-related hepatotoxicity. In high-burden countries such as Nigeria, TB control strategies largely prioritize infectious disease management, with limited focus on coexisting metabolic disorders. This study evaluated the prevalence and pattern of dyslipidaemia among TB patients and explored its association with socio-demographic variables. Methods: A hospital-based.....
