- Knowledge, Awareness, and Clinical Practice of Digital Technologies in Endodontics among Dental Professionals in Southern Saudi Arabia: Cross-sectional Survey Study. [Journal Article]J Contemp Dent Pract. 2025 Dec 01; 26(12):1206-1214.JC
- CONCLUSIONS: Digital endodontic integration in southern SA is advancing but remains uneven. Foundational tools are widely adopted, whereas advanced technologies are largely confined to specialist and academic settings. Limited undergraduate training, specialization, and infrastructural disparities are key determinants of this uneven adoption.

- Digital Correction of Occlusal Force Imbalance: T-scan III Assessment before and after Guided Equilibration in Postorthodontic Patients. [Journal Article]J Contemp Dent Pract. 2025 Dec 01; 26(12):1197-1205.JC
- CONCLUSIONS: A significant occlusal force discrepancy was found in the postorthodontic subjects. T-scan III-guided occlusal equilibrium improved the balance in occlusal forces in all participants. Digital occlusal analysis may be recommended for orthodontic case finishing, to make visible to the clinician the severity of the orthodontically created occlusal force imbalance, such that it can be minimized during orthodontic case finishing.

- Evaluation of Transmissible Diseases and Preventive Measures Awareness Level among Dental Auxiliaries in Dental Schools of Kerala: A Cross-sectional Study. [Journal Article]J Contemp Dent Pract. 2025 Dec 01; 26(12):1191-1196.JC
- CONCLUSIONS: The present study concluded that the dental auxiliaries exhibited a high level of awareness towards transmissible diseases, including blood-borne and airborne infections. However, there are gaps in immunization rates against HBV, TB, varicella, and rubella, despite this awareness. Dental assistants exhibited superior knowledge and were more inclined to use personal protective measures compared to other dental auxiliaries.
