Dental caries and periodontal diseases, the two arch criminals of oral cavity, are essentially caused by the micro-organisms present in dental plaque [1]. In India, nearly 60-65% of the child population is affected by dental caries and 10% has periodontitis [2,3]. Dental plaque plays an important role in the development of dental caries and periodontal disease, which results in both dysfunction...
In previous studies, the abundance and diversity of methanogenic archaea in the dental microbiota have been analysed by the detection of specific DNA sequences by PCR-based investigations and metagenomic studies. Few data issued regarding methanogens actually living in dental plaque. We collected dental plaque specimens in 15 control individuals and 65 periodontitis patients. Dental plaque spec...
Dental plaque removal is an important issue in health promotion. Toothbrushing is one of the main methods employed for such purpose, since it can prevent dental caries by means of the fluoride present in the dentifrice. Dentifrices might contain plaque disclosing agents and thus allow dental plaque observation. The aim of this study was to assess whether utilization of a plaque disclosing agent...
Thirty children (6 to 18 months), enrolled in a dental program since birth, make up the intervention group. Control group consisted of thirty children who were of similar age and gender but had never been to a dental office. The presence of visible dental plaque and the performance of oral hygiene differed statistically between both groups. The dental program was effective in reducing visible d...
Background and purpose: Despite advances in oral health and dental industry, tooth decay remains one of the most common oral diseases. One of the new methods to combat dental plaque, which is the main cause of caries, is using specific lytic bacteriophage. This study aimed to investigate the effect of isolated specific lytic phage against growth and biofilm inhibition of Streptococcus mutans an...
PURPOSE In mechanically ventilated patients, the endotracheal tube is an essential interface between the patient and ventilator, but inadvertently, it also facilitates the development of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) by subverting pulmonary host defenses. A number of investigations suggest that bacteria colonizing the oral cavity may be important in the etiology of VAP. The present stud...
The ecological plaque hypothesis for the aetiopathogenesis of caries implies a microbial shift towards a more acidogenic and aciduric dental plaque microflora, due to a frequent carbohydrate intake. Certain plaque bacteria exhibit metabolic activity, at a low pH. A correlation exists between the increased numbers of some aciduric bacterial species, e.g. mutans streptococci and lactobacilli, and...
Dental plaque has been suggested as a reservoir for Helicobacter pylori but the hypothesis that the oral microflora may be a permanent reservoir of H. pylori is still controversial. The aims of this study were to determine the presence of H. pylori DNA in the gastric antrum and dental plaque of a Venezuelan population by PCR and to investigate the relationship between this infection and the ora...
Dental calculus or tartar is an adherent calcified mass that form on the surface of teeth and dental appliance through mineralization of bacterial dental plaque in aqueous environment. Dental calculus plays a vital role in aggravating the periodontal disease by acting as reservoir for the bacterial plaque and providing the protected-covered niche for bacteria to proliferate. Based upon the loca...
AIM To establish a competitive PCR (cPCR) assay for quantitation of H pylori organisms in dental plaque samples. METHODS The cPCR co-amplified target H pylori DNA and a known amount of internal standard template in the same tube with the same primers directed to 0.86 kb DNA of H pylori. The internal standard was a synthesised DNA bearing the same primer recognition sites at two ends and a non...
