Filter by:The objective of this in situ clinical study is to determine whether a toothpaste containing hydroxyapatite microclusters is as effective as a fluoridated kid's toothpaste in promoting remineralization of early caries lesions and inhibiting the development of caries lesions.
To evaluate the effects of a clinically approved and commercially available iron oxide formulation Ferumoxytol (Feraheme®) to control cariogenic biofilms and enamel demineralization. This study will be testing topical application of Ferumoxytol extra-orally using a standard in situ biofilm demineralization model.
randomized clinical study to evaluate 'caries management by risk assessment' Versus 'international caries classification and management system' Caries Risk Assessment Models Acquisition On Treatment Plan In Young Adult Population with null hypothesis that International Caries Classification and Management System (ICCMS™) will have the same clinical performance as Caries management by risk assessment (CAMBRA)
The aim of this bi-center study was to evaluate the retention and caries-preventive effect of Atraumatioc Restorative Treatment (ART) sealants, using two glass ionomer cement (GIC) versus non-sealant on first permanent molars of schoolchildren. The null hypothesis is that there is no difference in the retention rates of the two GIC, as well as in caries prevention between sealants application and non-sealant. Four hundred and thirty-seven 6-to-8-year-old schoolchildren were selected in two cities in Brazil. They were randomly divided into two groups, according to the GIC used (Fuji IX or Maxxion). All children had their four first permanent molars included in the research and two molars were sealed with a GIC, while the other two molars remained unsealed. Clinical evaluations were performed up to 36 months by one independent examiner at each city.
The objective of this cross - sectional observational study will be to evaluate the oral conditions of indigenous people in the state of Roraima, comparing habits and hygiene conditions in each ethnicity evaluated. This project was submitted to the Coordination of the Yanomami Indigenous Special Sanitary District, the CONDISI presidency and the CASAI leadership. Around 200 indigenous people from the aforementioned ethnic groups, of both sexes, aged between 18 and 75 years, will be evaluated
This trial is a Phase III, multisite, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, with two parallel groups. The groups are SDF or placebo and they are applied every 6 months. The primary hypothesis of the trial is that SDF is better than placebo for stopping cavities with dentin exposed in baby teeth when assessed at 6 months after initial application.
Preformed metal crowns (PMCs) have high success rates in restoring primary molars in children but they were not generally used by dentists, especially in developing countries due to its demand of high clinical skills with the conventional technique (CT). The biological approach, Hall technique (HT), requires less training and can be placed by less experienced dental operators including therapists. Previous studies were mainly carried out in developed countries. The aims were to investigate and compare the efficacies and cost-effectiveness of PMCs placed by these two techniques.
This application, BeReady2Smile, will promote dental health behavioral parenting strategies among parents by incorporating a behavioral program for their children. Parents use a multimedia coordinated oral health prevention intervention program to promote dental health targeted at parents of young children attending parenting education classes and families receiving home visiting services through Head Start. Once developed, BeReady2Smile will be field tested for usability and usefulness with a group of parents of young children. Parents will rate the level of support needed, confidence in the system, and ease of use at each stage in the development, initiation, and maintenance of the system.
Maintaining dental pulp vitality is crucial for tooth preservation and functionality. Untreated dental caries may lead to pulp necrosis and infection, affecting children's growth and well-being. The first permanent teeth erupt around 6 years old. These are the first molars (FPM), which are frequently affected by caries, soon after their eruption. In the present application, our main goal is to determine whether two treatment groups (MTA and TheraCal) are long-term effective in preserving pulp vitality among children' FPM affected by deep caries.
This study evaluates the oxidative stress parameters in females with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and clinically healthy. Because of the fact that both oral disease included periodontitis and dental caries, and metabolic syndrome are associated with systemic inflammation, these two disorders may be linked through a common pathophysiologic pathway
