重度磨耗患者髁道运动学初步评价

评价重度磨耗患者后方髁道运动学特征 ,探讨髁状突运动与牙合重建的关系。方法 :运用Pantronic髁状突运动描记系统和D5ADenar全调节式咬合架 ,对 15例中老年重度磨耗患者后方髁道决定因素对牙合运动的影响 ,以及对 5例已完成咬合重建的重度磨耗患者髁道运动学特征进行初步评价。结果 :15例重度磨耗患者平均髁间距离为 ( 60 .72± 4.40 )mm ,迅即侧移量 (ISS) 1.3 5mm (右 )和 1.2 4mm (左 ) ,渐进侧移量 (PSS)为14 .65°(右 )与 17.11°(左 ) ,前伸髁导斜度 (PRO)为 2 3 .45°(右 )与 2 6.85°(左 ) ,非工作侧髁道值 (ORB)为 2 6.5 0° ,前伸髁导斜度与非工作侧髁道之间极相关 ,存在较小的Fisher角。结论 :咬合重建主要影响侧移量和Pantronic重复运动指数 (PRI)的大小 ,反映出下颌侧方边缘运动限制所恢复的程度。但牙合重建对非工作侧髁道没有明显的影响 ,运动道的变化并不能预测治疗的效果。     

Comparative study of oral conditions in schoolchildren of Strasbourg, France, 1974–85

A representative sample of 1650 children randomly selected in the 6-15-yr-old schoolchild population of Strasbourg was examined by well-calibrated examiners. The prevalence of caries was determined with the DMFT, DMFS and dft indices using bitewing radiographs. Plaque, calculus and gingival indices were also determined. The results obtained were compared with the initial study of 1974 performed in Strasbourg using the same epidemiologic methods. Whereas no important variations were observed in caries prevalence of primary teeth, a significant reduction of caries activity was observed in DMFT and DMFS indices in all age groups. There was a reduction of these two indices of respectively 32% and 33% in the 12-yr-old children. The reduction was the most significant on approximal surface lesions. A statistically significant decrease of the calculus and gingival indices was also observed between 1974 and 1984. A less significant decrease was observed for the plaque index.     

Treatment time analysis for extensive amalgam restorations

The treatment times for the fabrication of Extensive Amalgam Restorations (EAR) as recorded in a longitudinal clinical trial at the Dental School in Nijmegen were analyzed. 269 EAR's with different retention methods were made on molars by three operators. A mean total treatment time of 60 min was found. The factor operator had a significant influence on all treatment phases resulting in a 26% difference in total treatment time between operators. Also significant influences were found in some treatment phases for the factor retention, side location of the tooth and extension of the restoration. The results of this study with regard to treatment times must be considered from the perspective of the quality of the care provided.     

纤维连接蛋白对生物矿化影响的体外实验研究

目的:探讨纤维连接蛋白(Fn)对生物矿化过程的影响,为其应用于临床作盖髓剂提供理论依据.方法:应用体外凝胶矿化系统结合微观形态学观察,研究有无羟基磷灰石(HAP)晶核时Fn对钙磷沉积的影响.结果:凝胶体系中随Fn浓度升高,吸光度值也升高(P<0.01),表明磷酸钙沉淀量的增多;加入HAP并不降低Fn的促沉积活性.结论:Fn可能通过促进钙磷沉积及其与HAP的相互作用参与矿化过程,此特性可能有利于Fn作为盖髓剂成份诱导牙本质桥形成.

目的:研究VitapanClassical比色板各比色片中1/3部分的色度值的分布规律,以利于提高临床上的比色准确率。方法:在自然光线下用数码相机对VitapanClassical比色板进行摄影,将拍摄结果输入计算机,经Photoshop7.0软件处理后,记录各比色片中1/3部分的亮度和RGB值。结果:各比色片中1/3部分的亮度和R、G、B值是不同的。结论:数码摄影能够较真实地再现VitapanClassical比色片的颜色,可以作为临床比色方法和烤瓷材料颜色选择的补充。     

Difficulties with tooth protectors in endotracheal intubation

The suitability of three tooth protectors for routine use during endotracheal intubation was studied in 300 consecutive patients undergoing elective operations under general anaesthesia. The main disadvantages of the protectors were lack of space and the consequent difficulty of guiding the endotracheal tube into the larynx, and poor visibility, especially when the Camo protector was used. These difficulties could be avoided in most cases by cutting off the right angle of the Camo protector. The less experienced anaesthesiologists especially had difficulties with the protectors: 20% of patients in the Camo group were considered impossible to intubate unless the protector was removed. The silicone inlay of the Camo protector melts and becomes adhesive at body temperature, which makes its prolonged use hazardous. Two patients lost a maxillary incisor despite the proper use of a protector (Denex). Thus the use of a tooth protector alone does not guarantee avoidance of dental trauma. Better results could be obtained by improving the design of the protectors and by careful pre-anaesthetic dental examination.     

Orthodontic undergraduate education: developments in a modern curriculum.

This paper explores some modern concepts of teaching and learning, including cognitive theory, the zone of proximal development, constructivism, andragogy and learning styles and describes how they have informed the development of an undergraduate orthodontic curriculum. The changes described include student-centred learning, guided self-learning, and the incorporation of problem-based learning concepts. The details of the problem-based learning programme are described together with results of student feedback on the change in teaching and learning style.
