BACKGROUND Dental caries has been strongly associated with mutans streptococci, particularly Streptococcus mutans and S. sobrinus. Many studies have linked these organisms to the carious process and counts of mutans streptococci have been used to monitor caries risk. The high levels of caries generally found in Iceland have enabled several studies to be performed on the variation within strains...
In this paper we present the findings of a study designed to test the usefulness of an ecological model containing factors believed to affect children's oral health both directly and indirectly. It has long been accepted that there are multiple factors involved in the etiology of dental disease-in this case, caries. However, most dental research uses explanatory models involving a limited range...
BACKGROUND The multiple functions of saliva play a significant role in the prevention of dental caries. METHODS Chewing gum is known to stimulate salivary flow, and the results of studies of the role of stimulated saliva in the oral clearance of food particles, neutralization of dental plaque acids and reduction of the incidence of dental caries have been reported. The author reviews the resu...
For years, Swedish researchers have recognized caries risk assessment as an important part of routine dental practice for caries management. This paper reviews a new way of illustrating the caries risk profi le of an individual through a computer program, the Cariogram, which was described by Professor Bratthal in 1976. Cariogram is a risk as well as a prediction model. It presents a ‘weighted’...
statement of problem: bitewing radiograph is the main reference for diagnosis of proximal and recurrent caries. there is no software for gathering and analyzing radiologists’ opinion in the field of caries detection on digital bitewing radiograph (dbr). objectives: the main aim of this study is to introduce the first windows application that could be used for marking caries on dbr. this softwar...
BACKGROUND All children in Sweden are entitled to regular, free dental care up to 20 years of age. While dental caries generally continues to decline, still there is a pronounced skewness in caries prevalence. Furthermore, the reported increase in dental erosion in young adults is cause for concern. AIM The aim was to study the prevalence of dental caries and dental erosion in a cohort of Swe...
Dental caries is the most common oral disease worldwide. Caries is primarily caused by bacteria that colonize the mouth and breaks down sugars to produce an acid that de-mineralizes the surface of teeth. The resulting hole is called a carious lesion, and is the symptom used to diagnose this disease. Untreated caries provides an opportunity for other bacteria to infect the inner structure of the...
UNLABELLED Dental caries is a multifactorial disease that affects most populations throughout the world and it is still the primary cause of oral pain and tooth loss. The occlusal surfaces of posterior teeth are the most vulnerable sites for dental caries due to their anatomy. Therefore, the aim of the following article is to summarize current knowledge on occlusal caries development and the po...
BACKGROUND Consensus guidelines support non-operative preventives for dental caries management; yet, their use in practice is far from universal. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of non-operative anti-caries agents in caries prevention among high caries risk adults at a university clinic where risk-based caries management is emphasized. METHODS This retrospective ob...
UNLABELLED BACKGROUND Over 90% of adults aged 20 years or older with permanent teeth have suffered from dental caries leading to pain, infection, or even tooth loss. Although caries prevalence has decreased over the past decade, there are still about 23% of dentate adults who have untreated carious lesions in the US. Dental caries is a complex disorder affected by both individual susceptibil...
