Filter by:This study aimed to investigate the relationship between gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and dental erosion and the alterations in oral tissues. This was a case-control study. The GERD group consisted of 50 individuals with endoscopic esophagitis who had gastroesophageal reflux symptoms, and the control group consisted of 50 healthy individuals. The prevalence of teeth wear and caries was evaluated using the Smith and Knight tooth wear index (TWI) and the decayed, missing, and filled teeth index (DMFT), respectively. Inflammatory mouth sensitivity, tongue sensitivity, nonspecific itching and burning, halitosis, dry mouth, teeth sensitivity, and the erythema of the soft and hard palatal mucosa and uvula were also evaluated. Stimulated saliva samples were collected, and the salivary flow rate, pH, and buffering capacity values were measured.
Study to determine if whether or not exist an association between the tissue loss (ETW progression) and the frequency of an acidic diet. To accomplish the aim, a quantitative analysis of intraoral scans of study models will be performed to identify erosive tooth wear progression in a group of Chilean adolescents. First, participants with different intake of dietary acids will be compared in terms of their baseline sociodemographic and clinical characteristics. Second, the association between baseline frequency of dietary acids and changes in volume loss over time will be evaluated using linear mixed models to account for the data structure (repeated assessments nested within teeth and teeth nested within children). Models will be adjusted for demographic factors, family socioeconomic position, health behaviours and chronic conditions.
The aim of this randomized, controlled, prospective clinical trial is to evaluate the performances of a universal adhesive in three different application modes, a self-etch adhesive and an etch&rinse adhesive in restoration of non-caries cervical lesions. Thirty-four patients will receive restorations. Lesions will be divided into 5 groups according to adhesive systems and application modes: CU-SE: Clearfil Universal Bond Quick in self-etch mode, CU-SLE: Clearfil Universal Bond Quick in selective etch mode, CU-ER: Clearfil Universal Bond Quick in etch&rinse mode, CSE: Clearfil SE Bond, TB: Tetric N-Bond. Restorations (Tetric N-Ceram composite) will be scored with regard to retention, marginal discoloration, marginal adaptation, recurrent caries and post operative sensitivity using modified USPHS criteria after 48 months. Two examiners who is not involved in the placement of restorations will conduct the evaluations. Descriptive statistics will be performed using Chi-square tests.
Attrition from pediatric weight management programs is unacceptably high, with dropout ranging from 27-73%. This project will utilize a model that predicts dropout from treatment, increasing its power and accuracy through a multi-site observational study. This will result in a powerful tool that will be used to decrease attrition from pediatric weight management, with the potential for widespread dissemination to improve treatment outcomes.
This study compares the survival rates of both direct and indirect resin-based composite restorations in the treatment of severe tooth wear.
This study aims to explore the relationships between tooth wear (TW) and musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). The null hypothesis is that TW is not associated to MSDs. It also explores the influence of bruxism signs, life habits and stress on TW and MSDs.
The objectives of this study are i) to monitor the oral health of young people over a period of one year and ii) to assess the ability of a new intraoral scanner combining fluorescence with 3D imaging to detect and monitor changes in the dental hard tissues in vivo. The working hypotheses of this study are that i) the monitoring of oral health will benefit from using a new intraoral scanner combining fluorescence with 3D imaging and ii) the new intraoral scanner combining fluorescence with 3D imaging will aid dentists to identify changes in the dental hard tissues at earlier stages than the traditional diagnostic methods (i.e. visual-tactile, radiographic methods).
Suitability of intraoral impressions for assessment of wear of teeth and restorative materials over 60 months, using the gypsum replica method and 3-D laser scanning: perspective clinical and laboratory evaluation.
Tooth wear is a physiological process occurring from normal functioning of the dentition throughout lifetime.
The aim of this randomized, controlled, prospective clinical trial is to evaluate the performances of two different universal adhesives and an etch&rinse adhesive in restoration of non-caries cervical lesions. Twenty patients will receive restorations. Lesions will be divided into 7 groups according to adhesive systems and application modes: GSE: Gluma Universal- self etch, GSL: Gluma Universal-selective etching, GER: Gluma Universal-etch&rinse, ASE: All Bond Universal- self etch, ASL: All Bond Universal- selective etching, AER: All Bond Universal- etch&rinse, SB (Control): Single Bond2+etch&rinse. Restorations (nano-hybrid composite) will be scored with regard to retention, marginal discoloration, marginal adaptation, recurrent caries and post operative sensitivity using modified USPHS criteria after 48 months. Two examiners who is not involved in the placement of restorations will conduct the evaluations. Descriptive statistics will be performed using Chi-square tests.
