ObjectivesThe aim was to study the impact of dietary intervention on the properties of paraffin-stimulated saliva, and on dental caries.Study designAt 7 months of age 1062 infants (540 intervention; 522 controls) started in the prospective, randomized Special Turku Intervention Project (STRIP) aimed at restricting the child's saturated fat and cholesterol intake to prevent atherosclerosis of adult age (www.clinicaltrials.gov NCT 00223600). At 3 years of age, every fifth child was invited to an oral sub-study, and 148 (78 boys) children attended. At 6, 9, 12 and 16 years of age 135, 127, 114 and 88 children were restudied, respectively. Dietary intakes of carbohydrates, protein, saturated fat, calcium, phosphate, and fibre were regularly recorded using 4-day food records. Height and weight were regularly monitored. Paraffin-stimulated saliva samples were collected at 6, 9, 12 and 16 years of age, and analyzed for flow rate, buffer capacity, calcium, phosphate and proteins. Dental health was recorded and expressed as d3mft/D3MFT, and as time of caries onset.ResultsDietary intakes of calcium, phosphate and fibre, and salivary flow rate increased with time in both groups (p < 0.001, GLM for repeated measures). Fibre intake and salivary flow rate were higher in the intervention than in the control group (p = 0.042 and p = 0.0394, respectively, GLM for repeated measures). There were no correlations between dietary intakes and salivary concentrations of calcium or phosphate. Children who did not have caries experience (d3mft/D3MFT = 0) during the entire follow-up had higher salivary calcium than those who had caries already at 3 years of age. The association between salivary calcium and caries onset was significant up to 12 years of age. Toothbrushing frequency was statistically significantly associated with caries-onset at ages 6 (gamma statistic 0.457, p = 0.046) and 12 years (gamma statistic 0.473, p = 0.019).ConclusionsThe current long-term dietary intervention increased children's paraffin-stimulated salivary flow rate. The concentration of salivary calcium was directly correlated to dental health. Higher salivary flow rate in the intervention group is believed to be due to higher fibre intake in the intervention group. 相似文献

ObjectivesThis study tested the hypotheses that there is: (1) higher bacterial frequency in peri-implantitis/periodontitis, followed by mucositis/gingivitis and peri-implant/periodontal health; (2) similar bacterial frequency between comparable peri-implant and periodontal clinical statuses.Design of studyThe presence of Porphyromonas gingivalis, Tannerella forsythia, Campylobacter rectus, Prevotella intermedia, Treponema denticola and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans was evaluated in peri-implant (n = 53) and periodontal (n = 53) health; mucositis (n = 50), gingivitis (n = 50), peri-implantitis (n = 50) and periodontitis (n = 50).ResultsThe pattern of peri-implant bacterial frequency was not as expected (peri-implantitis > mucositis > health). Except for P. intermedia (p > 0.05), bacterial frequency was higher in peri-implantitis than health (p < 0.05). The frequency of P.gingivalis and red complex species were higher in peri-implantitis than mucositis (p < 0.05). In periodontal samples, T. forsythia and T. denticola showed the expected pattern of frequency (periodontitis > gingivitis > health). The frequencies of C. rectus and T. forsythia were higher in healthy teeth/gingivitis than healthy implants/mucositis, respectively (p < 0.05). The frequency of P. gingivalis and A. actinomycetemcomitans were similar between periodontitis and peri-implantitis (p > 0.05) while all other species occurrences were higher in periodontitis than peri-implantitis (p < 0.05).ConclusionsBacterial frequency increased from peri-implant/periodontal health to peri-implantitis/periodontitis but not from mucositis/gingivitis to peri-implantitis/periodontitis. There was a trend towards higher bacterial frequency in teeth than implants. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to explore the status of the lateral pterygoid muscle (LPM) after detachment in artificial temporomandibular joint replacement (TJR) surgery. Patient clinical and computed tomography imaging data were collected before and after unilateral artificial TJR with LPM detachment. The volume of the LPM on the operated and unoperated sides was measured before and after surgery (at 1, 3, 6, 12 months) using ProPlan CMF 3.0 software. The volumes of the LPM on both sides, the patient’s mandibular movements, quality of life (QoL), and pain and diet scores (visual analogue scales) were evaluated and compared at the different follow-up stages. Ten patients were included in the study. After surgery, the volume of the operated LPM was significantly reduced to 60.78% at 3 months (P = 0.007), and gradually stabilized to 51.58% at 6 months (P = 0.025) and 54.68% at 1 year postoperative (P = 0.002). There were no significant LPM volume changes on the unoperated side (P = 0.67). Lateral movement of the operated joint was significantly reduced (P = 0.021) and correlated with the LPM volume change after surgical detachment (P = 0.042). The LPM shrank after detachment in the artificial TJR surgery and the muscle detachment affected the movement of the replaced joint. 相似文献

ObjectivePolymerization shrinkage developed in vertical and horizontal directions after light activation of light-curing composite restorative materials. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of vertical and horizontal polymerization shrinkage on: (a) dimensional changes of resin composites in tooth cavities; (b) shear bond strengths to enamel and dentin; and (c) marginal gap width in a non-reacting Teflon mold.MethodsVertical and horizontal polymerization shrinkage in tooth cavities were measured immediately (3 min) after light activation. With the same time lapse, shear bond strengths to enamel and dentin and marginal gap widths in Teflon mold were also measured.ResultsThere was a significant correlation between vertical and horizontal polymerization shrinkage (r = 0.647, p = 0.043) in the tooth cavity. Composite materials which produced small vertical shrinkage also produced smaller horizontal shrinkage. Composite materials which produced small vertical shrinkage in the tooth cavity exhibited greater shear bond strengths to both enamel (r = −0.697, p = 0.025) and dentin (r = −0.752, p = 0.012). Composite materials which produced smaller horizontal shrinkage produced smaller marginal gap widths in the Teflon mold (r = 0.829, p = 0.003). No relationships were observed between horizontal shrinkage in the tooth cavity and shear bond strengths to both enamel and dentin (p > 0.05).SignificanceDuring the early stage of setting (<3 min) in tooth cavities, the vertical shrinkage of light-activated composite restorative materials was correlated with horizontal shrinkage. 相似文献

BackgroundPhysiological changes and immunological modifications occur during pregnancy. The clinical and biological features of periodontal infections are affected by pregnancy. The aim of the present study was to evaluate saliva levels of 25-hydroxy-vitamin D3 (25(OH)D3), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and TNF-alpha (TNF-α) in pregnancy, postpartum and non-pregnant controls.MethodsWhole saliva samples together with full-mouth clinical periodontal recordings were obtained from 59 pregnant, 47 post partum and 70 systemically healthy non-pregnant women. Groups were also evaluated according to the periodontal health status. 25(OH)D3, PGE2 and TNF-α levels in the saliva samples were determined by enzyme-linked immunoassays. Data were statistically tested by nonparametrical tests.ResultsSaliva TNF-α and PGE2 levels were significantly lower and 25(OH)D3 levels were significantly higher in the pregnant group than postpartum group (p < 0.0001). Saliva TNF-α and 25(OH)D3 levels were significantly higher and PGE2 levels were significantly lower in the control group than postpartum group (p < 0.0001). In the pregnant healthy, gingivitis and periodontitis groups saliva TNF-α levels were significantly lower than postpartum and control counterparts (p < 0.0001, p = 0.032, p = 0.003 and p = 0.013; p = 0.027; p = 0.007, respectively). In control healthy, gingivitis and periodontitis groups saliva 25(OH)D3 levels were significantly higher than the postpartum counterparts (p < 0.0001, p < 0.0001, p = 0.002, respectively). In the control healthy and gingivitis groups saliva 25(OH)D3 levels were significantly higher than pregnant healthy and gingivitis (p < 0.0001).ConclusionsIn conclusion, within the limits of the present study it seems that pregnancy have an effect on parameters in saliva in relation to the periodontal status of the women. Further studies are required for better understanding of the impact of periodontal diseases on pregnancy or otherwise. 相似文献

Background and objectivePeriodontal disease is an infectious disease resulting from the immunoinflammatory response of the host to microorganisms present in the dental biofilm which causes tissue destruction. The objective of this study was to evaluate the immunohistochemical expression of matrix metalloproteinase 7 (MMP-7), extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer (EMMPRIN) and cyclophilin A (CypA) in periodontal disease.DesignGingival tissue samples were divided as follows: clinically healthy gingiva (n = 32), biofilm-induced gingivitis (n = 28), and chronic periodontitis (n = 30). Histological sections of 3 μm were submitted to immunoperoxidase method and undergone quantitative analysis. The results were analyzed statistically by the Mann-Whitney and Spearman correlation tests, with the level of significance set at 0.05 (α = 0.05).ResultsImmunopositivity for MMP-7, EMMPRIN and CypA differed significantly between the three groups, with higher percentages of staining in chronic periodontitis specimens, followed by chronic gingivitis and healthy gingiva specimens (p < 0.05). Immunoexpression of CypA and MMP-7 was higher in the intense inflammatory infiltrate observed mainly in cases of periodontitis (p < 0.05). CypA expression was positively correlated with MMP-7 (r = 0.831; p < 0.001) and EMMPRIN (r = 0.289; p = 0.006). In addition, there was a significant positive correlation between probing depth and expression of MMP-7 (r = 0.726; p < 0.001), EMMPRIN (r = 0.345; p = 0.001), and CypA (r = 0.803; p < 0.001).ConclusionThese results suggest that MMP-7, EMMPRIN and CypA are associated with the pathogenesis and progression of periodontal disease. 相似文献

Improving the outcomes of surgical treatment of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is beneficial from a patient and health-economy perspective. Optimizing conditions for a successful result can be reached using validated, strict diagnostic criteria and by identifying patient-specific factors predicting the outcome. The aim of this study was to investigate possible predictive factors in TMJ arthroscopy. A prospective cohort study including 93 patients undergoing arthroscopy was conducted. The outcome was graded as successful (53%, n = 49), good (25%, n = 23), intermediate (20%, n = 19), or deteriorated (2%, n = 2) using a predefined set of objective and subjective outcome measures. The outcome was correlated with preoperative and perioperative variables and the diagnosis. Preoperative bilateral masticatory muscle tenderness on palpation was the only variable significantly correlated with a negative outcome in the adjusted regression analysis (odds ratio (OR) 2.56, P = 0.048). Low age (OR 1.03, P = 0.05) and bilateral joint surgery/operated side (OR 0.24, P = 0.05) were found to correlate with an unsuccessful outcome in the unadjusted analysis. Eighty-nine percent of the patients with osteoarthritis benefited from arthroscopy, while corresponding figures were 80% for disc displacement without reduction and 64% for chronic inflammatory arthritis. Preoperative bilateral masticatory tenderness might be a useful predictive factor suggesting the consideration of revised non-invasive therapy before surgery. 相似文献

ObjectiveThis investigation tested pre-shaded 3Y-TZP materials on optical, mechanical and structural properties and calculated correlations between these properties.MethodsSeven A2-shaded 3Y-TZP zirconia materials were investigated on translucency (T) via UV–vis-spectrophotometer, fracture load of 3-unit FDPs (FL), biaxial flexural strength (FS), Chevron-Notch Beam (CNB), fracture toughness (KIC) and Martens parameter (hardness: HM and indentation modulus: EIT). FL, FS and KIC were measured in a universal testing machine. The grain size was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Data was analyzed using one-way ANOVA followed by post hoc Scheffé, Kruskal–Wallis-, Mann–Whitney-U- and Pearson-test (p < 0.05).ResultsFor translucency, negative correlations were found with results of facture load (R = −0.444, p < 0.001) and KIC (R = −0.503, p < 0.001). While a positive correlation was found between translucency and flexural strength (R = 0.238, p = 0.019), between fracture load and EIT (R = 0.227, p < 0.029), between fracture load and KIC (R = 0.362, p < 0.001) as well as between fracture load and the grain size (R = 0.598, p = 0.007). While the grain size positively correlated with EIT (R = 0.534, p = 0.017) as well as EIT with HM (R = 0.720, p < 0.001).SignificanceDespite of being based on the same raw material, tested zirconia materials significantly differed regarding optical, mechanical (except biaxial flexural strength and Martens hardness) and structural properties. Materials with highest optical properties were those with lowest mechanical properties (CER, COP). 相似文献

ObjectiveTo fabricate and characterize dental composites with calcium type pre-reacted glass-ionomer (PRG-Ca) fillers.MethodsPRG-Ca fillers were prepared by the reaction of calcium fluoroaluminosilicate glass with polyacrylic acid. Seven dental composites were produced from the same organic matrix (70/30 wt% Bis-GMA/TEGDMA), with partial replacement of barium borosilicate (BaBSi) fillers (60 wt%) by PRG-Ca fillers (wt%): E0 (0) – control, E1 (10), E2 (20), E3 (30), E4 (40), E5 (50) and E6 (60). Enamel remineralization was evaluated in caries-like enamel lesions induced by S. mutans biofilm using micro-CT. The following properties were characterized: degree of conversion (DC%), roughness (Ra), Knoop hardness (KHN), flexural strength (FS), flexural modulus (FM), water sorption (Wsp), water solubility (Wsl), and translucency (TP). Data were analyzed to one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s HSD test (α = 0.05).ResultsAll composites with PRG-Ca induced enamel remineralization. E0 and E1 presented similar and highest DC% than E2 = E3 = E4 = E5 = E6. Ra and KHN were not influenced by PRG-Ca fillers (p < 0.05). The higher the content of PRG-Ca, the lower FS, FM and TP (p < 0.05). Wsp increased linearly with the content of PRG-Ca fillers (p < 0.05). E6 presented the highest Wsl (p < 0.05), while the Wsl of the other composites were not different from each other (p > 0.05).SignificanceIncorporation of 10–40 wt.% of PRG-Ca fillers endowed remineralizing potential to dental composites without jeopardizing the overall behavior of their physicochemical properties. Dental composites with PRG-Ca fillers seems to be a good alternative for reinforcing the enamel against caries development. 相似文献

ObjectivesEvidences suggest that hemodialysis patients have reduced salivary flow and changes in the composition of salivary secretion. These changes may reflect local and systemic disorders. The objectives of this study were to compare the salivary levels of calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P), potassium (K) and albumin in hemodialysis patients and healthy subjects, and to investigate a possible correlation between their serum and salivary levels.DesignA case–control study was conducted with 60 hemodialysis patients (HD group) and 37 systemically healthy individuals (control group). Stimulated saliva samples were collected for biochemical analysis (Ca, P, K and albumin). Serum data were collected in the HD group. Statistical analysis included t-test, Pearson correlation and simple linear regression.ResultsThe HD group exhibited higher salivary levels of Ca, P, and albumin (p < 0.05). There was a significant positive correlation between serum PTH and salivary phosphorus (r = 0.342, p = 0.009), and between serum PTH and salivary potassium (r = 0.306, p = 0.020). An increase of 100 pg/dL in serum PTH was associated with an elevation of salivary P levels (0.34 mg/dL, p = 0.009), and salivary K levels (0.20 mmol/dL, p = 0.02), in the HD group.ConclusionsThe findings suggest that HD patients present increased levels of salivary components (Ca, P, and albumin), and changes commonly observed in HD patients, such as hyperparathyroidism, appear to have an influence on salivary composition. 相似文献

ObjectivesThis cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the relationship between thalassemia major (TM) and gingival inflammation through the salivary, serum, and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) levels of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-8, MMP-9 and tissue inhibitor of MMP (TIMP)-1.MethodsBiofluid samples and full-mouth clinical periodontal recordings were obtained from 29 otherwise healthy patients with TM and 25 systemically healthy (SH) individuals. Biofluid samples were evaluated by immunofluorometric assay (IFMA) and enzyme-linked immunoassays (ELISAs). Data were tested statistically by Kolmogorov Simirnov, Mann–Whitney U tests, Spearman correlation analysis.ResultsAge, smoking status, bleeding on probing, plaque index were similar in the study groups, but probing depth, gender data exhibited significant differences (p = 0.037 for both). Salivary MMP-8, MMP-9, TIMP-1 concentrations were significantly higher in the TM than SH group (p = 0.014; p < 0.001; p = 0.042, respectively). Serum TIMP-1 concentrations were significantly higher; MMP-8/TIMP-1, MMP-9/TIMP-1 molar ratios were significantly lower in the TM than SH group (p < 0.001; p = 0.005; p = 0.022, respectively). Very few GCF samples revealed biochemical data above the detection limits. Numerous correlations were found between clinical periodontal parameters and biochemical data.ConclusionsIt may be suggested that TM may exacerbate the local inflammatory response as manifested in salivary MMP-8, MMP-9, TIMP-1 levels. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo study the effect of orally administered Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis BB-12 and Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG on the salivary levels of Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMP)-8, MMP-9 and of Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinases (TIMP)-1 in healthy adults. Furthermore, the correlations between MMP-8, MMP-9 and TIMP-1 and plaque and gingival indices, salivary mutans streptococci and lactobacilli counts, and stimulated saliva secretion rate were analysed.DesignThe salivary samples originated from a randomized controlled trial where healthy student volunteers consumed probiotic or placebo lozenges twice a day for four weeks. The saliva samples were collected and clinical parameters measured at the baseline and at the end of the original study. For this study, the salivary levels of MMP-8, MMP-9 and TIMP-1 were analysed with immunofluorometric assay (IFMA) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).ResultsIn the probiotic group (n = 29), salivary MMP-9 levels increased (p < 0.01) and TIMP-1 levels decreased (p < 0.01) significantly during the intervention. Furthermore, MMP-9/TIMP-1 ratio differed significantly from the baseline level (p < 0.01). These changes were not observed in the control group (n = 31). In the whole data, salivary MMP-9 and gingival index correlated (r = 0.260, p < 0.05 at baseline and r = 0.354, p < 0.01 at the end of the study). Intergroup differences or correlations with other clinical parameters were not found. Probiotic consumption did not affect the saliva flow rate.ConclusionsIncreased MMP-9 and decreased TIMP-1 levels in saliva may indicate that probiotics have immunomodulatory effects in the oral cavity. Furthermore, increased salivary MMP-9 levels may be an indication of the defensive potential of matrix metalloproteinases. 相似文献

ObjectiveEvaluate the efficacy of three regimens integrating toothpaste, toothbrush and mouthwash in reducing dentine hypersensitivity.MethodsEight-week single-centre, three-cell, double-blind, randomized study was conducted in the Dominican Republic. Subjects entered one of the three regimens: (1) toothpaste containing 8% arginine and 1450 ppm mono-fluorophosphate, in a calcium carbonate base, a soft-bristle toothbrush followed by a mouthwash containing 0.8% arginine, PVM/MA copolymer, pyrophosphates, and 0.05% sodium fluoride; (2) toothpaste containing 5% potassium nitrate and 1450 ppm sodium fluoride, a soft-bristle toothbrush, followed by a mouthwash containing 0.51% potassium chloride and 230 ppm sodium fluoride; and (3) toothpaste containing 1450 ppm mono-fluorophosphate, a soft-bristle toothbrush followed by a fluoride/arginine free mouthwash. Tactile and Air-Blast dentine hypersensitivity measurements were performed at baseline, two, four, and eight weeks. For treatment group comparisons, ANCOVA and post hoc Tukey's pair-wise (α = 0.05) were used. Kaplan–Meier survival analysis was performed to evaluate Time to Treatment Improvement.Results120 subjects were enrolled, 118 completed the study. The Tactile hypersensitivity mean scores showed statistically significant improvement at two, four and eight (p ≤ 0.001) weeks in the arginine regime; the potassium regime did not show significant (p ≥ 0.05) improvement. Air-Blast Hypersensitivity scores had a statistically significant decrease at two (p = 0.006), four (p = 0.006) and eight (p = 0.002) weeks in arginine and potassium regimes (p ≤ 0.05). The most effective treatment proved to be arginine (p ≤ 0.05) compared to the potassium regime.ConclusionArginine regimen provided the greatest reduction in Tactile and Air-Blast dentine hypersensitivity compared to potassium and negative control regimens; and provides faster dentine hypersensitivity relief than potassium regimen. 相似文献

ObjectiveTo investigate the impact of high-speed sintering, layer thickness and artificial aging in a chewing simulator on the fracture load (FL) and two-body wear (2BW) of 4Y-TZP crowns.Methods4Y-TZP crowns (Ceramill Zolid HT+, Amann Girrbach AG) in three different layer thicknesses (0.5, 1.0, 1.5; N = 192, n = 64/group) were manufactured using CAD/CAM technology and sintered at 1580 °C (high-speed sintering) or 1450 °C (control group). Specimens were polished in two-steps and bonded to standardized CoCr abutments with Multilink Automix (Ivoclar Vivadent). 2BW after 6000 thermo- and 1,200,000 chewing-cycles employing enamel antagonists was determined using best fit machining. FL was tested before and after artificial aging. Univariate ANOVAs, post hoc Scheffé, unpaired t-, Kruskal–Wallis- and Mann–Whitney-U-test were computed (p < 0.05).ResultsHigh-speed sintering resulted in less 2BW of the zirconia than the control group (p = 0.013). High-speed sintering (p = 0.001–0.006) and an increase in layer thickness (p < 0.001–0.012) resulted in higher FL values, while artificial aging led to a reduction of FL (p < 0.001).SignificanceAs high-speed sintering resulted in less two-body wear of the zirconia and comparable or even higher fracture load results than the control group, this cost- and time efficient alternative presents promising mechanical results. 相似文献

ObjectiveThis study investigated the anti-demineralizing and antibacterial effects of a propolis ethanolic extract (EEP) against Streptococcus mutans dental biofilm.DesignBlocks of sound bovine enamel (n = 24) were fixed on polystyrene plates. S. mutans inoculum (ATCC 25175) and culture media were added (48 h–37 °C) to form biofilm. Blocks with biofilm received daily treatment (30 μL/1 min), for 5 days, as following: G1 (EEP 33.3%); G2 (chlorhexidine digluconate 0.12%); G3 (ethanol 80%); and G4 (Milli-Q water). G5 and G6 were blocks without biofilm that received only EEP and Milli-Q water, respectively. Final surface hardness was evaluated and the percentage of hardness loss (%HL) was calculated. The EEP extract pH and total solids were determined. S. mutans count was expressed by log10 scale of Colony-Forming Units (CFU/mL). One way ANOVA was used to compare results which differed at a 95% significance level.ResultsG2 presented the lowest average %HL value (68.44% ± 12.98) (p = 0.010), while G4 presented the highest (90.49% ± 5.38%HL) (p = 0.007). G1 showed %HL (84.41% ± 2.77) similar to G3 (87.80% ± 6.89) (p = 0.477). Groups G5 and G6 presented %HL = 16.11% ± 7.92 and 20.55% ± 10.65; respectively (p = 0.952). G1 and G4 differed as regards to S. mutans count: 7.26 ± 0.08 and 8.29 ± 0.17 CFU/mL, respectively (p = 0.001). The lowest bacterial count was observed in chlorhexidine group (G2 = 6.79 ± 0.10 CFU/mL) (p = 0.043). There was no difference between S. mutans count of G3 and G4 (p = 0.435). The EEP showed pH 4.8 and total soluble solids content = 25.9 Brix.ConclusionThe EEP seems to be a potent antibacterial substance against S. mutans dental biofilm, but presented no inhibitory action on the de-remineralization of caries process. 相似文献

ObjectiveOur retrospective study aimed to assess the impact of repairs on the longevity of anterior and posterior direct composite restorations and to compare longevity of repaired and replacement restorations.MethodsPatient records were retrospectively screened for anterior and/or posterior composite restorations with 2+ surfaces placed in permanent teeth between 2000 and 2015. During follow-up, repaired and replaced restorations were assessed and mean annual failure rates (mAFR) calculated. Outcome was considered in three levels: Success (no further intervention), survival 1 (first repair = survival, second repair = failure) and survival 2 (more than one repair = survival, all surfaces repaired = failure). Statistical analysis was performed using Kaplan–Meier statistics, log-rank tests, and multi-variate Cox-regression analyses with shared frailty (p < 0.05).Results8542 initial restorations placed in 3239 patients were included (4.7 ± 4.4 years follow-up, 2.5 ± 0.7 surfaces). Longevity of initial restorations was prolonged by repair(s) (after 10 years: success: 68.3%, mAFR: 3.7%; survival 1: 77.3%, mAFR: 2.5%; survival 2: 80.4%, mAFR: 2.2%; p < 0.001). 616 repaired restorations (4.9 ± 4.2 years follow-up, 3.5 ± 1.0 surfaces) and 264 replacement restorations (5.6 ± 4.1 years follow-up, 3.0 ± 0.8 surfaces) were analyzed. Success of repaired restorations amounted to 43.4% after 10 years (mAFR: 8.0%), further repair(s) prolonged survival (survival 1: 65.7%, mAFR: 4.1%; survival 2: 74.8%, mAFR: 2.9%; p < 0.001). Success of replacement restorations amounted to 48.6% after 10 years (mAFR: 7.0%), repair(s) prolonged survival (survival 1: 67.4%, mAFR: 3.9%, p = 0.044; survival 2: 74.1%, mAFR: 3.0%, p = 0.003).SignificanceRepairs are suitable to increase the survival of restorations; repaired restorations last as long as replacements. 相似文献

PurposeTo assess the influence of mandibular residual ridge resorption (RRR) on objective masticatory measures of two occlusal schemes: lingualized occlusion (LO) and fully bilateral balanced articulation (FBBA).MethodsThe enrolled patients (n = 22) were randomly allocated one set of complete dentures with either LO or FBBA. Maximum occlusal force, masticatory performance (by the MPI), and mandibular movements were measured at 3- and 6-month follow-ups. Mandibular RRR was assessed as the sum of the mandibular bone height at the midline, first premolar region, and least vertical height region, and from the mental foramen to the alveolar crest, measured on panoramic radiographs; the treatment groups were subclassified into severe or moderate RRR subgroups by the value of the sum of individual measurements.ResultsSignificant differences were observed in the between-subgroup comparisons (Kruskal–Wallis test) of the MPI (3 months, p = 0.01; 6 months, p = 0.04) and linear deviation from intercuspal position (anterior–posterior: 6 months, p = 0.01; inferior–superior: 3 months, p = 0.008; 6 months, p = 0.02). The patients with severe RRR in the FBBA group showed a significant decrease in the MPI and increase in linear inferior deviation from intercuspal position at 3 months (post hoc comparison) as well as a significant increase in the linear posterior and inferior deviation from intercuspal position at 6 months.ConclusionsLO is the preferable occlusal scheme for patients with severe RRR.

BackgroundPlasma levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are different before and after periodontal treatment. Asians and Westerners have significantly different baseline levels of plasma PUFAs. However, no Asian study has reported the effects of nonsurgical treatment on the correlation between periodontal condition and plasma levels of PUFAs. We analyzed whether recovery from periodontitis was correlated with the elevation of plasma fatty acids 3 months after the nonsurgical intervention and with no recommended supplements.DesignThirty-five Taiwanese patients with periodontitis were recruited. Probing pocket depths (PPDs) and clinical attachment levels (CALs) were measured at baseline and 3 months after the nonsurgical treatment. Plasma levels of fatty acids were determined using gas chromatography. Differences and correlations between plasma fatty acid composition and periodontitis severity at baseline and 3 months after treatment were determined.ResultsTwenty-six patients completed the study. At the baseline, PPDs were negatively correlated with plasma n-3 PUFAs (r = −0.52, p < 0.01), but at 3 months post intervention, periodontitis severity had declined and the weight percentages of n-3 PUFAs, DPA, and DHA were significantly (p = 0.019, 0.005, and 0.037, respectively) higher. The recovery percentages of CALs were positively and significantly correlated with plasma ΔPUFAs and the percentage of Δn-3 PUFAs in ΔPUFAs (r = 0.42 and 0.45, respectively; p < 0.05 for both).ConclusionsWe conclude that a higher weight percentage of n-3 PUFAs in total PUFAs was related to the recovery of CALs 3 months after the nonsurgical periodontal treatment. However, no such relationship was found for PPDs. 相似文献

AimThe aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of the two-part semi-rigid oral appliance, Silensor® (Erkodent, Tuttlingen, Germany) which prevents the mandible from retracting during mouth opening.Materials and methodsTen patients with mild or moderate obstructive sleep apnea (2 males and 8 females; mean age = 62.5 ± 10.0 years) were recruited and lateral cephalometric radiographs were taken. The patients underwent polysomnography before and after 3 months of receiving treatment with the Silensor®. The relationship between the improvement in the polysomnographic variables after the therapy and the cephalometric features was analyzed.ResultsA significant difference was observed in the apnea–hypopnea index after 3 months of Silensor® therapy (1st (baseline), 17.1 ± 5.5; 2nd (therapy of Silensor®), 11.0 ± 7.2, p = 0.011). Furthermore there was a significant positive correlation between the improvement in the degree of slow wave sleep (%) and the mandibular plane angle (R = 0.662, p = 0.037), as well as between the improvement in degree of slow wave sleep (%) and the lower face height (R = 0.845, p = 0.002). A significant negative correlation was observed between the improvement in degree of sleep efficiency (%) and the soft palate area (R = ?0.809, p = 0.005).ConclusionThese results suggested that keeping the nasopharyngeal airway space during mouth opening improves apnea–hypopnea index of some patients with mild or moderate obstructive sleep apnea and quality of sleep in obstructive sleep apnea patients with a long lower face height and a small soft palate. 相似文献

PurposeProviding appropriate dental prostheses and dietary interventions may improve food and nutrient intake in elderly edentulous patients, but evidence to support their use is scarce. In this trial, we aimed to clarify the combined effect, on the nutritional statuses of edentulous elderly patients, of dentists providing complete dentures with dietary advice.MethodsA randomized-controlled trial was performed on a healthy elderly population who required new complete dentures. All participants had new complete dentures fabricated and were randomly divided into an intervention or a control group. The intervention group received simple dietary advice through standardized patient information leaflets and the control group received advice on denture care only. Nutritional status was assessed using the Mini Nutritional Assessment short-form (MNA-SF) before and at 3 and 6 months after treatment. At each assessment point, the MNA-SF scores were compared using the Mann–Whitney U test. The within-group differences in the MNA-SF scores were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test with Bonferroni correction.ResultsIn total, 59 participants completed all trial steps. At 6 months after treatment, the MNA-SF score in the intervention group was significantly higher than that in the control group (p = 0.01). Comparing the within-group changes in the MNA-SF score revealed that the score increased significantly from 3 to 6 months in the intervention group (p = 0.001, Bonferroni correction).ConclusionsNutritional statuses of healthy edentulous elderly population might be improved by fabricating new complete dentures and providing simple dietary advice. 相似文献
