The present study aimed to examine if bacteria in pooled supragingival plaque samples quantified using a "checkerboard DNA-DNA hybridization" based panel of caries-related bacteria, could reflect the caries experience in a manner similar to saliva samples analyse...

متن کاملDental Caries, and Supragingival Plaque and Calculus among Students, Tanga, Tanzania
The prevalence of dental caries and supragingival plaque and calculus in 785 secondary schools students was assessed. More than half (53.6%) of the students were caries-free, and the majority of those with dental caries experience were aged 14-17 (68.1%) and females (53%). Mean DMFT was 1.26, with mean D-component of 1.05, and molars were most affected. Most students had supragingival plaque (7...
متن کاملReduction of supragingival plaque accumulations in institutionalized Down's syndrome patients by periodic treatment with topical kanamycin.
A small group of institutionalized Down’s syndrome patients were treated with topical kanamycin sulphate paste, once or twice a day for 3-5 days, every fifth week over a 52-week-period. The teeth were not brushed during this 52-week-period. The wet weight of the supragingival plaque in the kanamycin group was significantly reduced when compared to the supragingival plaque formed in the group re...
