To date, not enough attention has been paid to the role of communication before the first dental visit to encourage the child's cooperation and avoid dysfunctional behaviors.

In this work, the investigators study the application of artificial intelligence systems on dental panoramic images for dental findings. An artificial intelligence system will be learned on an publicly available panoramic image dataset, and test against the investigators' local patient cohort as external test data. The investigators hypothesize the performance would be similar, if not identical to on the public data, and that the investigators' AI system is generalizable.

We demonstrated the use of the Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy as a coadjutant oral decontamination agent. It was also shown that SDS surfactant improves the antibacterial action of APDT when using Curcumin as the photosensitizer. The decontamination levels obtained with APDT are comparable with the levels observed with the use of Chlorhexidine. The clinical relevancy is the control of oral microbial load which will improve the patients' quality of life and will decrease the possibility of cross contamination in the dental office.
The aim of the study was to evaluate the socioeconomic patient's profile and their level of satisfaction in the general dental practice clinic. A cross-sectional quantitative study was accomplished with 80 patients assisted at the referred service. A solely-applied questionnaire was used regarding the following aspects: structure and environment, fear and anxiety, reliability, empathy and commitment, resolutivity and quality of the accomplished services. It was observed that the assisted patients' profile consisted predominantly of a female sample (71,2%), that completed the medium learning (31,2%) and/or that didn't finish the fundamental level (26,2%). Moreover 50% of them presented a family income of 1 to 2 minimum salaries and 41,2% were unemployed. As the quality of the rendered technical service, nearly 70% of the users considered it great, as well as the clinic's structure and environment. Regarding the satisfaction with to the received treatment, 76,2% of the interviewees gave the maximum score of 10 and 95% would recommend the attendance to others. It is concluded that the patients are satisfied with the clinical attendance accomplished by the students in the general practice dental clinic at UNIFOR, in what refers to its technical and functional quality.
