Pain sensation is evolutionarily the primary basis of sensitive human activity, and it is quite stable. The stability of electrodontometry (EOM) indicators is demonstrated by a narrow zone of the pain threshold of 2-6 mkA of healthy front teeth, which was first evaluated by Rubin L. R. in 1953......

The dental care of children is an area that requires special attention. The dental visit, even in the early years of life, allows the child to have, early on, greater contact and familiarity with the dental environment, thus having the possibility to learn new habits in addition to positive experiences with regard to oral health. Thus, it is extremely important to know the view of children about the dental care provided by the institution CEUPL-ULBRA. We randomly selected children aged 3 to 11 years, 13 males and 8 females. Data collection was performed through interviews and story-design after the service, as well as analysis of the medical records to record the procedures performed. For the analysis of the drawings and for the interview, four categories were considered: a) Dental environmentb) Dental treatmentc) Dentist image and d) B..... ReadMore

Extrusion of root canal sealers may cause damage to the surrounding anatomic structures. Clinical symptoms like pain, swelling and paresthesia or anesthesia may be present. The purpose of this presentation is to describe a conservative management of root canal sealer penetration into periapical tissues. A 17-year-old female underwent root canal treatment of her right maxillary second premolar due to a tooth decay, involving the pulp chamber. A postoperative X-ray revealed the presence of a root canal material beyond the root apex within surrounding tissues. The patient reported neither pain nor other complains. Radiographic examination after 4 months showed complete resorption of the root canal sealer and healing of the periapical area without performing any surgical management. That result was confirmed a year later by the same imaging t..... ReadMore

If we can establish good communication with the patients who do not go to dental clinics gladly and behave timid, it will take us to the success. Since, the right communication between people makes everything easy. We can use NLP for receiving these signals, understanding the body language and all human relations. Linguistic scientist John Grinder and Mathematician Richard Bandler have taken an example of three people, who have excelled with special abilities at their fields, and have found out that all three have used interestingly similar patterns although they have different attitudes. Later, they have modeled the other people who has perfect performance like Anthropology Gregory Bateson and have prepared a book to use these methodologies. At the NLP, “N” stan..... ReadMore

Traumatic dental injuries in childhood are quite commonplace, with a reported occurrence of up to 30% globally. The effect of traumatic dental injuries can have adverse effects on the child, his family and the dentist treating the child. This is an area which has always been neglected. The psychological effect of TDIs are individual for each patient and as such should be treated as a whole. Children who had suffered a traumatic dental injury seems to have the worse oral health related quality of life and they are more likely to have low self-esteem when their dental injuries are not properly treated. Children who have dental anomalies are judged poorly by their peers and the society as a whole and these judgements are increased many folds due to the presence of social media. At present there is a lack of proper research to study the psych..... ReadMore

Fissure sealant is one of effectual method for prevent occlusal caries. Therefore, removing contaminated organic debris and plaque was important process to attain sufficient sealant retention. The aim of this study was revaluated the cleaning method and invasive technique to an occlusal fissure. Twenty-four teeth with deep fissure were used in this study and 15 teeth were cleaned by finger spreader, bristle brush and ultrasonic scalar, respectively. Remain 9 teeth were prepared fissure groove using three kinds of minimal intervention burs (BR-48, CD-50F and CD-53F). The ratio of remaining debris by fingers spreader, bristle brush and ultrasonic scalar were 35 %, 65%, 25% respectively. In contrast, each fissure with invasive technique was not observed residual debris. The average preparative fissure groove by BR-48, CD-50F..... ReadMore

This in vitro study was conducted to evaluate effect of surface treatment and two resin cements on marginal integrity of zirconia crowns. Materials and Methods: Forty zirconia crowns (Amann Girrbach AG,Austri) were fabricated and divided into2 groups according to type of resin cement, group 1 Rely x ultimate clicker (3M Deutschland ,Germany ) and group 2 Rely x unicem (3M ESPE,USA) , each group was then subdivided into 4 groups according to type of surface treatment , no surface treatment, sandblasting, sandblasting with silane, sand blasting with MDP . After cementation each specimen was photographed using USB Digital microscope with a built-in camera (Scope Capture Digital Microscope, Guangdong, and China) for measuring and evaluation of gap width. Results: group 2 showed higher significant mean of marginal gap than group 2. Conclusi..... ReadMore

Aim: We evaluated the effectiveness of oral health education in terms of oral health literacy, knowledge, behaviors, and oral health status among middle school students in Yangon, Myanmar. Materials and methods: This 1-year study enrolled 10- to 11-year-old students. At baseline, a dentist provided health education to group A (n=247), and peer group leaders reinforced it. Group B (n=195) received no education program. After 6 months, the dentist provided education to both groups, and classroom teachers reinforced it. Both groups received questionnaire surveys and oral examinations at baseline, 6 months, and 1 year. Results: There were no between-group differences at baseline. After 6 months, group A showed significant improvements in oral health literacy, knowledge, and behavior as well as reduction in dental plaque, gingivitis, and pla..... ReadMore

Background/Objective: Hemoglobin is the iron-containing oxygen-transport metalloprotein in our red blood cells, hemoglobin is made up of globin chains which are encoded by their respective genes located on chromosome 11 and16 with several alleles. Many of these alleles suffer point mutations in the DNA sequence that lead to single amino acid substitutions in the globin moiety, resulting in the production of abnormal hemoglobin polymorphism and which are associated with a wide range of moderate to severe hemolytic anemia in pregnant women. Therefore, this study aims to examine hemoglobin genotype polymorphism among gravidas women in Yola. Materials/Methods: 904 pregnant (i.e. gravida) women with age range of 18 to 41years in the antenatal ward of the hospital participated in this study and 2mls of venous blood were aseptically colle.....

Neonatal teeth are abnormalities in the chronology of eruption in which one or more teeth, which erupt during the first 30 days following birth and cause problems such as trauma-induced ulcers of the tongue, damage to the mother’s breasts, a reduction in the quality of breastfeeding, weight loss and even aspiration of the neonatal tooth. The removal or not of these teeth should be assessed on a case-by-case basis. The aim this article was to report the clinical management of two cases of neonatal teeth. The two female babies were attended in a pediatric dental clinic. The first patient was a 2-month-old baby that had difficulty during breastfeeding due to the mobility of one of the neonatal teeth. The clinical and radiographic exam showed that the three teeth were part of the normal dentition. The two mandibular te..... ReadMore
