Filter by:The study was designed to determine whether maternal xylitol consumption through regular chewing of xylitol gums can affect the salivary mutans streptococci (MS), dental caries, and dental plaque levels of their children.
The study is to compare the prophylactic and therapeutic clinical effectiveness of two fluoride varnishes in children at high caries risk. It was hypothesized, the use of Fluor Protector S (I) fluoride varnish in children with deciduous teeth at high risk of caries (P) reduces caries and the activity/remineralisation of carious enamel spots (transformation of White Spot Lesion into D (decay)) (O), similarly to what occurs after the use of Duraphat varnish (C).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the therapeutic benefit of Curodont Repair for the treatment of early buccal carious lesions compared to placebo.
To compare radiographic and clinical outcomes and survival of mineral trioxide aggregate/ferric sulfate (MTA/FS) pulpotomy and root canal therapy (RCT) in carious vital primary maxillary incisors.
This double blind randomized controlled prospective clinical trial will compare the clinical success of two tooth colored resin composite dental filling materials - TPH3 (Dentsply Caulk) and an experimental urethane dimethacrylate resin based composite resin (Dentsply Caulk) for wear resistance, staining and marginal seal using modified Ryge criteria to evaluate the posterior restorations for 24 months in duration
To evaluate the effect of daily ingestion of the probiotic Lactobacillus reuteri on the levels of secretory IgA and the cytokines Il1-beta, IL-6, IL-8 and IL-10 in saliva of healthy young adults.
to identify the Effective Fluoride Concentration In Toothpaste For Dental Caries Prevention after 18 months of randomized controlled trial.
We hypothesize that oral hygiene habits in children 8-12 years of age can be improved using video format Social Story intervention techniques. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of video format social stories used to inform and educate children and parents about proper dental hygiene technique over a 6 week intervention period. We will measure the success of intervention using data collected from clinical exams and caregiver/participant surveys. Evaluation of data collected will be used to determine the effectiveness of the intervention.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a methodology for detecting early forming cavities in children that is more accurate and reliable than the gold standard used by dentists around the world. The new method uses an electrical current device to detect early enamel mineral loss before it can develop into a cavity. The manual gold standard is for a dentist to probe the surfaces of the teeth with a fine pick, searching for areas of defect.
This study investigates the benefit of using chlorhexidine gel as an antimicrobial agent in orthodontic patient to reduce caries risk and the possible consequential effect of this use on the orthodontic brackets used for the treatment. The investigators hypothesis is that chlorhexidine gel use can reduce caries risk in orthodontic patients with out causing damage to the bonded ceramic or metal orthodontic brackets.
