Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the frequency of oral hygiene in the maintenance of gingival health in patients with an adequate method of oral hygiene.
The purpose of this study is to determine if an oral probiotic tablet taken once a day for twelve weeks can decrease the numbers of bacteria that are associated with tooth decay and gum disease in a dentally healthy, young adult population.
In areas of the world where populations are undernourished poor oral health is prevalent. Diets rich in fruit and vegetables are thought to have many health benefits including reducing the risk of oral cancer or gum disease. In particular fruits such as strawberries contain many different compounds which may be responsible for these proposed health benefits. From this study, the researchers hope to gain information about how the tissues in the mouth absorb strawberry gummies in a population of habitually smoking and never smoking men and women. The researchers will measure inflammation hormones in your saliva and urine and the genes in your mouth and blood. Two different strawberry gummies will be tested in this study. The strawberry gummies were developed at OSU in the Department of Food Science and Technology. One type of strawberry gummy will contain freeze-dried whole strawberries while the other type will have no fruit. In total the eight pieces of strawberry gummies that you will consume in one day will be at most equal to 1 cup of whole strawberries. The research team believes the two strawberry gummies may be digested and absorbed differently and that components in the strawberry gummies may be helpful for oral health.
The purpose of this study is to identify the relation of the salivary flow and the buffer capacity of the saliva with medicine, buccal discomfort and auto-related illnesses in aged people.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of an intervention programme on dietary intake and dental health of 8th grade students.
Resin composites withholding antibacterial properties may be useful in preventing recurrent caries. Covalently attached antibacterial polymers are a possible solution.This in vivo study would evaluated the antibacterial effect of alkylated polyethylenimine nanoparticles incorporated into flowable and hybrid composite resin disks embedded in a palatal removable appliance.The disks would be in close contact with the palate in order to check for contact mucosities. disks on the side facing the Tongue would be evaluated for their antibacterial potency with confocal laser scanning microscopy.
The aim of this prospective clinical trial was to investigate the clinical performance and complication rate of RPDs (Removable partial dentures) retained on conventional conical double crowns in comparison to galvanoformed telscopic double crowns. Additionally the OHIP (Oral Health related Qualitiy of Life)and the abrasion of the teeth were investigated.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether an oral health education program that is tailored to caregivers' understanding and acceptance of information on how to prevent tooth decay will lead to improvement in behaviors conducive to good oral health and reduction in tooth decay in his or her children.
