Oral cancer is the 12th most commonly occurring cancer in females and the 6th in males. Oral sub mucous fibrosis (OSMF) considered as one of the high-risk precancerous conditions, linked with areca nut chewing. The aim of present bibliometric analysis was to put forward a summary of countries, universities, authors, journals, and research data related to use of turmeric as a therapeutic consideration in potentially malignant disorders (PMDs) and oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF). Methodology: Studies related to use of turmeric as a therapeutic consideration in PMDs and OSMF published in PubMed indexed journals from 2011 to 2021 were extracted from the Science Citation Index expanded core database. Data and research publications of numerous authors, journals, universities, and countries were retrieved and quantitatively analyzed applying the R-Studio biblioshiny package. The core data set comprised of overall 334 journals, as well as books. 724 documents were recognized. Top 20 PubMed indexed journals were selected which publish the data regarding medicinal properties of turmeric. 20 universities were also analyzed regarding treatment of turmeric. Average years from publication are 4.8 years. Results: A total of 724 documents were extracted. These documents were derived from 2011-2021. The number of documents/publication researches steadily increased from 2011 till 2018. Conclusion: This research includes data of 10 years, therefore, this bibliometric research of contribution of turmeric in oral submucous fibrosis and potential malignant disorders will provide complete knowledge during these years. This will provide an insight for new research projects across the globe.

The motive of this article is to review accessible periodontal dressings, their Physiochemical characteristics, biocompatibility, & therapeutic uses.                                                                                   Various features of periodontal dressings have been examined various studies have been conducted in vitro and in vivo. The dimensional alterations and adhesion qualities of dressings are intimately associated to their physical & chemical properties. Other characteristics addressed in the literature include biocompatibility and therapeutic efficacy. Surgical wound dressings have been used for millennia to protect surgical areas, prevent postoperative infection, and speed recovery. When used after periodontal surgical treatments, Packs for periodontal treatment are also referred to as periodontal dressings, the same benefits of paste. They are divided into two groups: Dressings based on eugenol and non-eugenol dressings. The surgeon's goal, Dressings are required to remain on the surgery site for a certain amount of time and its modifications in dimensions are all aspects to consider when choosing an appropriate dressing.

A type of light therapy known as low-level laser therapy (LLLT) uses only one wavelength of light. Low-level lasers (LLL) do not have a warming effect on the tissues; instead, they have an effect called photobiostimulation. LLL do not evaporate the tissue. The use of LLL to manage a range of illnesses is known as LLLT. Helium-neon lasers are an illustration of an LLLT product. Gallium arsenide, the infrared semiconductor made of gallium aluminum arsenide, is also an example. The performance powers range from 50 to 500 mW with electromagnetic spectrum wavelengths in the red and near-infrared region spanning from 630 to 980 nm and pulsed or continuous-wave emission. In periodontics, LLLT has gained prominence for several applications, including wound healing and pain relief after non-surgical and surgical procedures.

<abstract> <p>Dental implant treatment is turning into a widely accepted and popular treatment option for patients. With the growing era of dental implant therapy, complications and failures have also become common. Such intricacies are becoming a vexing issue for clinicians as well as patients. Implant failures can be due to mechanical or biological reasons. Failure of osseointegration of the implant falls under biological failures, whereas mechanical complications include fracture of the implant, framework or prosthetic components. Diligently observing the implant after placement is the first step in managing the declining circumstances. It is important to have a thorough understanding of how and why implants fail to achieve successful treatment outcomes in the long run. In dentistry, nanoparticles are used to make antibacterial chemicals that improve dental implants. They can be used in conjunction with acrylic resins for fabricating removable dentures during prosthetic treatments, composite resins for direct restoration during restorative treatments, endodontic irrigants and obturation materials during endodontic procedures, orthodontic adhesives and titanium coating during dental implant procedures. This article aimed to review the etiological factors that lead to implant failure and their solutions.</p> </abstract>
