This study is conducted in order to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of 1% DMSO dentin pre-treatment on the clinical performance of etch and rinse adhesive.
The present study aimed to evaluate the clinical effect of platelet-rich fibrin to improve epithelialization and decrease postoperative pain in post extraction sockets
The aim of the study is to describe the oral health status of patients suffering from schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorders in a psychiatric institute in France.
Background: Oral epithelial dysplasia (OED) is a condition with an increased risk of oral cancer. Due to the current changes in the factors associated with these diseases (because of human papillomavirus), it is expected that those who have no history of smoking or alcohol, young (<50 years old), and white male would be commonly affected. Those individuals require a higher need for information, preferred a more active role in decision-making, and have a longer lifespan than older individuals. There remain no detailed studies of whether the informational needs delivered to patients with OED met their needs or indeed what information such patient may wish. A few tools are available to evaluate the IN of patients with head and neck disorders. However, the items of these instruments were dedicated to a particular disease (e.g. cancer) and hence are not applicable to be used for OED. Project aims: To evaluate the psychometric properties of the Oral Epithelial Dysplasia Informational Needs Questionnaire (ODIN-Q), developed and revised in the preliminary work for the proposed study, in a cohort of patients with OED. Timescale: 19 months. Clinical significance: This questionnaire can be useful in clinical practice. It could help to meet the patient's information needs and plan educational interventions for those showing unmet needs.
It has been suggested that the best medicine should include four principles (4P) - Medicine should be personalized, predictive, preventative and participatory. Technology has provided the tools to collect data in ways not previously possible. Individuals can now collect information on their genome (including their genetic predisposition to tolerate medications and to respond to healthy lifestyle programs) that will modify their lifestyle and therapeutic choices. Beyond spot checks of vital signs and weight, individuals can now collect information on body composition, continuous monitoring of heart rate, blood pressure, and even blood sugar. Data on food consumption at a caloric, macronutrient and even micronutrient level can be collected. Standard medical histories and detailed physical examination findings and laboratory biomarkers can be correlated with this data. Collections of individual patient data will need to be managed through computer programs and smart phone applications that provide direct feedback about the influence of lifestyle on health, wellness and biomarkers. To this end, Metagenics is designing and is launching a smart phone application, Personal Lifestyle Engine (PLX), for individual use by patients and their healthcare providers. The statistical analysis of these data is the primary objective of this study.
The LIFE-HOUSE research project is designed to evaluate the impact of a personalized lifestyle intervention program on functional capacity as an approach to quantitating health, and its relationship to well understood disease risk determinants. LIFE-HOUSE will utilize an innovative Tent-Umbrella-Bucket design. Participants will gather under the Tent of an all-inclusive 'N of 1' Case Series providing a shelter of Functional Medicine interventions against the storm of chronic disease. Under this Tent are a collection of Umbrellas where participants with similar clinical challenges are evaluated as clinically defined groups with loose guidelines for the planned interventions. Finally, participants standing under these Umbrellas may step into specific Buckets that gather individuals with nearly identical clinical presentations into more formally described prescriptive randomized arms for intervention. Individuals will be offered the opportunity to participate in all Umbrellas and Buckets for which they qualify. They may accept or reject participation in any Umbrella or Bucket and yet remain eligible for participation in the overall Tent.
The goal of this project is to analyze the effectiveness of calculus and biofilm removal using area-specific hand scalers such as Mini Five® Gracey Curettes and Micro Mini Five® Gracey Curettes in periodontal pockets that are 5mm or greater. The data collected from this project will provide the evidence needed to support the use of modified hand scalers during non-surgical periodontal therapy for clinicians.
always reliable.Pain is an important diagnostic tool in dentistry. The type of treatment, extent of treatment and, sometimes, even the decision on whether to treat or not is dependent on the pain history obtained from the patient.The absence of an accurate description of dental pain is a factor that severely limits dental treatment planning in children with CP. The aim of this study is to study to evaluate the salivary cytokine profile of children with CP who have severe dental problems and to compare this to verbal children who have a similar dental profile.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the residual cementum with the histological measurements and root surface topography with SEM evaluation using four periodontal treatment methods.
