Wear test combining simulated occlusal wear and toothbrush wear.
A new wear testing system, which carries out toothbrush wear and simulated occlusal wear tests alternately, was developed. Differences in wear behavior among three modes of wears, combined wear, toothbrush wear and simulated occlusal wear, were investigated using polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) and two commercial resin composites (Z100, APX). The area of the material loss after each test was meas...
متن کاملTransient bacteremia induced by toothbrushing a comparison of the Sonicare toothbrush with a conventional toothbrush.
PURPOSE Several investigations have demonstrated toothbrush-induced bacteremias. Transient bacteremias are well tolerated by healthy individuals but may increase endocarditis risk in patients with cardiac conditions. This study assessed bacteremia levels after brushing with either the Sonicare electric toothbrush or a manual toothbrush. METHODS Fifty healthy children receiving dental treatmen...
متن کاملThe effect of a color-changing toothbrush with and without instruction on the duration of toothbrushing.
Introduction Toothbrush design, 1, 2 brushing method,3, 4 manipulative skills of the child, 5,6 parental involvement/brushing instruction, 8 and brushing duration9,1° are most cited as determinants of toothbrushing efficacy. Of these, Honkala11 and coworkers found that brushing duration was consistently correlated with plaque removal in children. Further, the brushing times produced a nearly pe...
متن کاملEffect of toothbrush grip on plaque removal during manual toothbrushing in children.
Toothbrushing is fundamental to oral hygiene. Children differ in manual dexterity and their grip on toothbrushes. We videotaped toothbrushing sessions and observed the grip type, duration of brushing, and brushing technique used among 100 children aged 8-12 years. We then investigated the association between grip type and plaque removal, using plaque scores obtained at various time points. We f...
