Filter by:The primary purpose of this study is to determine the local anesthetic efficacy and safety of 4% Articaine compared 2% Mepivicaine in 3 years old children, by using infiltration technique for primary teeth that required restorative, pulp therapy, or dental extraction procedure, as assessed by measuring the pain experience during injection and treatment procedures, child's behavior during the procedure, and postoperative complications.
To assess post operative pain and survival rate after collagen based pulpotomy versus MTA pulpotomy in children with vital primary molars.
The study is randomized controlled trial ... The null hypothesis of the present study is that there is no antibacterial efficacy of gold nanoparticles of pelargonium graveolens mouthwash against Streptococcus mutans and Candida Albicans . Meanwhile the alternative hypothesis of the present study is that gold nanoparticles of pelargonium graveolens mouthwash have antimicrobial activity against Streptococcus mutans and Candida Albicans .
he study was designed as a double-blind three-parallel-group randomized controlled trial, in which the evaluators and a researcher, not involved in the evaluation process, was responsible for the randomization process, were masked to the group assignment. The study will be carried out at 2 schools of the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires where school programs are developed by the Department of Preventive and Community Dentistry of the University of Buenos Aires, and that present homogeneous characteristics in terms of social risk. The children (n=244) attending those primary schools will be the population object of the trial. Clinical examinations Each child will go under a clinical examination to determine dental status according to the ICDAS II criteria (Pitts, 2005) and the Caries Treatment Need Index (CTNI). Intervention Children will be divided into three different groups according to the mode of treatment: - NaF varnish group (NaFV) Professional application of 5% NaF varnish twice a year pH 7 (ClinPro White Varnish®) according to manufacturer's instructions. - APF in tray Group (APFt) Professional application of APF 1.23% twice a year pH 3.5 (Klepp®) with tray according to manufacturer's instructions - APF in toothbrush group (APFtbru) Professional application of APF 1.23% twice a year pH 3.5 (Klepp®) with toothbrush 2 minutes brushing according to manufacturer's instructions. Dental examination and Monitoring Observations and clinical examinations will be conducted at schools. After 12 and 24 months, the clinical examination will be repeated to assess the dental status of schoolchildren following the same criteria described. The presence of new caries lesions will be taken as a dependent variable. So sound surfaces on baseline will be observed for 24 months.
The study aims to evaluate the knowledge, attitude, and practice of dental practitioners from Cairo and Riyadh regarding caries preventive measures.
This is a non-significant risk, single site, prospective clinical study. The study will be conducted in the department of pediatric dentistry of the faculty of dental medicine of the Hebrew university, Israel
The aim of the study is to evaluate the knowledge, attitude, and practice of a group of dental practitioners from Cairo and Riyadh regarding caries risk assessment and management.
Molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) can lead to many clinical conditions and affect oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL).
There is still a need for the assessment of different minimal intervention strategies and treatments focusing on the prevention and arrest of carious lesions of primary molars The evidence-based clinical practice guideline on non-restorative treatments for cavitated carious lesions advocate the use of silver diammine fluoride biannually for high caries risk patients
This study will investigate the performance and cost-effectiveness of glass-ionomer restorations placed in school children in an outreach setting in rural areas in South Africa over a 2-year period, when placed using either ART (in a classroom) or conventional (in a mobile clinic) cavity preparation.
