Filter by:The primary objective is to compare the remineralization and demineralization inhibition potential of early subsurface carious lesions in enamel in situ after rinsing with six different aqueous slurries of toothpaste formulations.
To compare the remineralization and demineralization inhibition potential of early subsurface carious lesions in enamel in situ after rinsing with five different aqueous slurries of toothpaste formulations. Percent remineralization (%R), i.e. the % change in ΔZ values relative to ΔZd, will be the primary outcome measure.
Caries and periodontal disease are chronic diseases of the oral cavity. The incidence of caries and periodontal disease can vary depending on the position of the third molar, The aim of this study was to verify possible associations between oral health-related quality of life (QoL), periodontal disease, caries lesions and the position of the lower third molar.
This study aimed to link lifestyle factors (Mediterranean diet adherence, stress, sleep quality, physical activity) to caries and apical periodontitis in 149 university-based individuals. Data included clinical and radiographic assessments and lifestyle questionnaires. Statistical tests and logistic regression were employed to analyze the relationships between these factors and oral health conditions.
The purpose of this study is to compare the remineralization potential of an optimized fluoride dentifrice to a control fluoride dentifrice in an in situ caries model.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a preventive strategy in increasing return to follow up and recall appointments.
Objectives: To reduce the microbial level in the aerosol created during dental procedures is essential in avoiding infections. The aim of this study was to examine the change of Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) and the total bacterial load in human saliva in vivo after a single rinse with different mouthwashes. Material and methods: One mL unstimulated saliva was collected from volunteers with poor oral hygiene at baseline and 5 min after a one-min rinsing with Solumium Oral® (hyper-pure 0.0015% chlorine dioxide; ClO2), Listerine Total Care®, Corsodyl® (0.2% chlorhexidine-digluconate; CHX), or BioGate Si*CLEAN for bacterial investigation. In a second study volunteers rinsed with 0.003% ClO2 or CHX for one-min and saliva was collected at baseline, after 5 and 90 min. After plating the total plate and S. mutans colony numbers were determined.
Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale (ECOHIS) will be used for detection of oral health related quality of life for children using strip composite crowns versus zirconium crowns at 6 and 12 months
The aim of this RCT was to verify the caries preventive efficacy of toothpastes containing biomimetic hydroxyapatite (H.A.) complex in children compared to traditional fluoridated toothpastes. In total 610 children of two age groups (4-5 years and 6-7 years at baseline) were enrolled. Four toothpastes, two containing fluoride-substituted hydroxyapatite (H.A.F.) (1000 and 1450 ppm F-) and magnesium-, strontium-, carbonate-substituted hydroxyapatite, in a chitosan matrix and two traditional fluoridated toothpastes (1000 and 1450 ppm F-) without other active components were administered randomly to two groups with younger children (Gyoung) and to two groups with older children those containing1450 ppm F (GOLD) during 24 months. A standardized questionnaire was administered to parents/caregivers to gain information regarding caries risk factors. Caries evaluation was performed at school using ICDAS, scoring lesions as initial (up to score 2), moderate (scores 3-4) and severe (scores 5-6).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the fluoride dose response of different dentifrice fluoride concentrations - 0, 250, 1100 and 2800 ppm fluoride as sodium monofluorophosphate (MFP) and a fifth leg of 1100 ppm Stannous Fluoride (SnF2) using an in situ caries model.
