undoubtedly, tooth decay is still one of the most significant problems in human communities. tooth decay is defined as a microbial disease that causes demineralization of hard tissues and degradation of organic components of teeth. although there are various theories on etiology of dental caries, miller’s acidogenic theory (1890) and gottileb’s proteolitic theory (1933) have gained the most cre...

OBJECTIVE Tooth decay is related to poverty, measured at individual and neighbourhood levels. It is however uncertain if living in an advantaged neighbourhood reduces tooth decay similarly in Australian Indigenous and non-Indigenous children. METHODS This study describes tooth decay by neighbourhood characteristics and Indigenous status, and examines inequalities by Indigenous status. RESUL...

background and objectives: dental caries, caused by oral microbial flora, is considered as one of the most common infectious diseases in human. the aim of this study was to determine the effect of short-term consumption of probiotic yogurt containing bifidobacterium lactis on salivary streptococcus mutans and lactobacilli in students with initial stages of dental caries. materials and methods: ...

This study assesses whether sense of coherence (SOC) predicts incidence of tooth decay over 4 years and the role of dental behaviours in explaining the effect of SOC on incidence of tooth decay. Data from 994 adults who participated in both the Health 2000 survey and the Follow-Up Study of Finnish Adults' Oral Health were analysed for this study. At baseline, participants provided information o...

Charles Darwin was intrigued with vestigial organs and, in fact, made them a part of his ‘‘long argument’’ for the existence of evolution in the natural world in Chapter 13 of On the Origin of Species. Now on the 150 anniversary of the publication of that seminal work, a study linking vestigial organs with molecular biology with paleontology has shown even more clearly how vestigial organs are ...

Detection of decay and restoration tooth has done by dentists up to now. We need to change this produce using intelligent application. In future new systems will be able to repair decay and restoration tooth without a dentist intervention. We need to start to research in about intelligent of detection of decay and restoration tooth. In the recent years there is severe competition in fast and hi...
