A compact, self-activating device may facilitate treatment while minimising discomfort and avoiding the need for patient compliance.Case report: Two young patients in the complete deciduous dentition, both presenting posterior crossbite and signs of maxillary constriction, were treated using the Anatomical Leaf Self Expander® bonded to the second deciduous molars. The device provided continuous, calibrated forces without the need for manual activation. Both cases showed complete correction of crossbite, spontaneous alignment of the upper arch, and improvement in facial symmetry and occlusal relationships, with stable outcomes at follow-up.Conclusion: The Anatomical Leaf Self Expander® offers a simple and effective approach for early transverse maxillary expansion in children with limited palatal space. Its compact design and self-activating mechanism allow predictable orthopaedic effects with minimal discomfort and no reliance on cooperation, making it a suitable first-line option for early interceptive treatment.","PeriodicalId":11930,"journal":{"name":"European journal of paediatric dentistry","volume":" ","pages":"1"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148900386","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The literature on the prevention of early childhood caries is extensive, robust, and consistent. Yet epidemiological data have not improved in proportion to the effort invested. Early childhood caries remains one of the most prevalent chronic diseases worldwide. Evidently, a substantial gap persists between knowledge and practice. The issue does not lie in the quality of the evidence. Rather, it lies in the assumption, too often implicit, that dissemination alone is sufficient to translate evidence into action. We have produced rigorous and well-argued documents, assuming that their intrinsic strength would be enough to modify behaviours. It is not. Between recommendations and everyday practice lies a divide that no consensus statement, in isolation, can bridge. A shift in perspective is therefore required. Not less research, but different research: fewer studies on what is already known to be effective, and greater focus on how to make such interventions genuinely adoptable in vulnerable contexts-among families with limited time and difficult access, within the constraints of brief paediatric consultations, and in healthcare systems operating under pressure and with limited resources. Evidence-based medicine has taught us to ask whether an intervention is effective; today, we must add an equally critical question: how can we ensure its actual implementation? Alongside evidence of efficacy, we therefore need evidence-based implementation, capable of identifying the conditions, organisational frameworks, and engagement strategies that render interventions feasible in routine practice. Implementation science is not a secondary discipline; it is the missing one. Idealism without pragmatism produces literature. Pragmatism guided by ideals produces health. Paediatric prevention requires the latter, and the scientific community, if it is to remain true to its mission, cannot afford to overlook it. Knowledge without change is insufficient; it is merely nostalgia.","PeriodicalId":11930,"journal":{"name":"European journal of paediatric dentistry","volume":"27 3","pages":"166-167"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148886762","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This approach is crucial to planning personalised preventive and therapeutic strategies. This study aims to develop a simple and reproducible caries risk assessment index, designed for daily use by dental hygienists and assistants to support consistent monitoring of patients' caries risk in clinical practice.Materials: This cross-sectional observational study was conducted following a comprehensive literature review to identify evidence-based caries risk indicators. A simplified caries risk assessment tool was developed and structured into a colour-coded evaluation grid. The tool was tested in a paediatric clinical setting on 494 patients aged 0-16 years, of whom 417 met the inclusion criteria and were analysed. Each assessment was completed by a dentist, dental assistant or dental hygienist after standardised training. Descriptive statistics were applied to evaluate the distribution of risk scores and associated variables.Conclusion: The simplified tool demonstrated good applicability in routine paediatric care and enabled consistent identification of individual caries risk profiles. Its ease of use and visual scoring system make it suitable for implementation in daily practice, including by trained non-dental personnel, supporting preventive strategies and early intervention.","PeriodicalId":11930,"journal":{"name":"European journal of paediatric dentistry","volume":" ","pages":"1"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148430384","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
