The composition and dental properties of eight different soft drinks, representing some of the most popular types used in the UK, were examined. Demineralization experiments were conducted on hydroxylapatite, the basic component of dental enamel, determining calcium dissolving by atomic absorption spectroscopy and phosphorus by u.v. visual spectrophotometry. The titratable acid content of the d...

The present case describes the management of significant tooth wear in a 13-year-old boy who presented following excessive consumption of carbonated drinks, accompanied by a “frothing” habit. The case demonstrates an alternative approach to the management of tooth wear, using a double-veneer technique, and emphasises the importance of recognition and early intervention in cases of dental erosion.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS This experimental study mainly aims at comparing the most important mechanical properties of the new orthodontic archwires, those immersed in fluorinated solution, the as-retrieved ones and the intra-oral used ones. METHODS A total of 270 arch wires were tested, using tensile testing and three-point bending tests. The tested archwires were made of Stainless Steel, Nickel T...

Dietary factors are thought to be closely associated with the development of human cancers and hence numerous studies in this area have already been conducted in the United States and other Western countries. Comparatively few prospective studies have been published in Japan, especially for Hokkaido people. The present investigation was therefore performed to assess links between four leading c...
