The aims of this study were to evaluate possible relationships between trait anxiety, dental anxiety and the total number of decayed, missing and filled teeth (DMFT) index of patients attending a dental school clinic. A sample of 558 patients was surveyed with the Turkish version of the Spielberger Trait Anxiety Inventory and Dental Anxiety Scale. DMFT index was calculated by clinical and radio...

OBJECTIVES To assess the dental status of institutionalized intellectually disabled individuals in Lebanon and the role of background and behavioural determinants. MATERIAL AND METHODS Oral health was recorded for 652 individuals (6, 12, 15 and 35 - 44 years old) using the decayed, missing and filled teeth/decayed and filled teeth (DMFT/dft) index. Data collected was statistically analysed wi...

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to determine gingival health and caries levels in HIV-infected children. METHODS The modified gingival index (GI) of 43 HIV+ children of both sexes, aged between 2 and 12 years, was measured and correlated with the DMFT/dmf. The children's immunodeficiency level was also established by means of the CD4:CD8 ratio. Pearson's product-moment correlation co-effici...

We propose a hybrid approach which employs the dynamical mean field theory (DMFT) self-energy for correlated, typically rather localized orbitals and conventional density functional (DFT) exchange-correlation potential less orbitals. implement this (plus charge density) self-consistent $\mathrm{DFT}+\mathrm{DMFT}$ scheme in basis of maximally Wannier using wien2k, wien2wannier, DMFT impurity so...

Aim The aims of this cross-sectional statistical study were to evaluate the association between obesity and dental caries and to assess the impact of food intake, oral hygiene and lifestyle on the incidence of dental caries in obese paediatric patients, analysed by Dual X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA). Materials and methods A sample of 96 healthy patients, aged between 6 and 11 years (mean age 8.58±...

Theoretical methods that are accurate for both short-distance observables and long-wavelength collective modes still being developed the Hubbard model. Here, we benchmark an approach combines dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) with two-particle self-consistent (TPSC). This offers a way to include non-local correlations in DMFT while also improving TPSC. The benchmarks published diagrammatic qua...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence and clinical effects of untreated dental caries in Pakistani children residing in orphanages using the DMFT and PUFA index; association of decay and untreated dental caries with demographics including type of orphanage; behavioural and dental visiting pattern; and association of dental pain experience and type of orphanage wit...

BACKGROUND The main purpose of this study was to compare the 30% of Nevada Youth who presented with the highest Decayed Missing and Filled Teeth (DMFT) index to a cohort who were caries free and to national NHANES data. Secondly, to explore the factors associated with higher caries prevalence in those with the highest DMFT scores compared to the caries-free group. METHODS Over 4000 adolescent...

Introduction: Dental caries is the most prevalent chronic disease among schoolchildren. We aimed to investigate the association between dental caries index and socio-demographic status in schoolchildren by using a multilevel hurdle model. Materials and Methods: A crosssectional epidemiological study was carried out on 906 primary school pupils in Kerman, Iran in 2012. The subjects were selected...
