Anticipatory guidance in infant oral health: rationale and recommendations. (1/364)
If appropriate measures are applied early enough, it may be possible to totally prevent oral disease. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends that infants be scheduled for an initial oral evaluation within six months of the eruption of the first primary tooth but by no later than 12 months of age. The rationale for this recommendation is provided, although the recommendation itself is not universally accepted. Specific recommendations include elimination of bottles in bed, early use of soft-bristled toothbrushes (with parental supervision) and limitation of high-carbohydrate food intake after teeth have been brushed. (+info)Chewing gum--facts and fiction: a review of gum-chewing and oral health. (2/364)
The world market for chewing gum is estimated to be 560,000 tons per year, representing approximately US $5 billion. Some 374 billion pieces of chewing gum are sold worldwide every year, representing 187 billion hours of gum-chewing if each piece of gum is chewed for 30 minutes. Chewing gum can thus be expected to have an influence on oral health. The labeling of sugar-substituted chewing gum as "safe for teeth" or "tooth-friendly" has been proven beneficial to the informed consumer. Such claims are allowed for products having been shown in vivo not to depress plaque pH below 5.7, neither during nor for 30 minutes after the consumption. However, various chewing gum manufacturers have recently begun to make distinct health promotion claims, suggesting, e.g., reparative action or substitution for mechanical hygiene. The aim of this critical review--covering the effects of the physical properties of chewing gum and those of different ingredients both of conventional and of functional chewing gum--is to provide a set of guidelines for the interpretation of such claims and to assist oral health care professionals in counseling patients. (+info)Cytotoxicity of a trial resin composite liner containing TiK2F6 on rat dental pulp cells. (3/364)
The aim of this study was to assess the toxicological responses of a resin composite containing TiK2F6 and NaF in rat dental pulp cells. Trial resin composite liners were made, containing 3 wt% fluorides (TiK2F6 or NaF). These specimens were immersed in 5 ml of cell culture medium supplemented at 37 degrees C for 24 hours. The eluates were used for the experiments. We judged the cytotoxicity of the samples by the cell viability. The original elute solution was serially diluted and then the medium was exchanged for the dilute medium. The cell viability at 1, 2 or 5 days after commencement of re-culturing was calculated. The viability of cells in the eluate from the resin composite liners containing TiK2F6 and NaF decreased with time. The cytotoxicity of TiK2F6 was weaker than that of NaF at all times. (+info)Inhibition of carious lesions in vitro around gallium alloy restorations by fluoride releasing resin-ionomer cement. (4/364)
A new fluoride releasing resin-ionomer cement was used for bonding of gallium alloy restorations in vitro. Etching, priming, and fluoride releasing resin-ionomer cement were used in the experimental group (ARG), prior to placement of the gallium alloy restorations. Three different controls were used: gallium alloy only (G), no etching, fluoride releasing resin-ionomer cement, gallium alloy (RG), etching, priming, non-fluoride cement and gallium alloy (ACG). The mean shear bond strengths of ARG group to enamel and dentin were higher than those of the three control groups. Artificial secondary caries lesions around the restorations in the experimental group and the control groups were produced, using a strep. mutans culture. The microradiographs were examined for presence of a caries inhibition zone near the restoration. Caries inhibition zones were clearly detected around RG and ARG, but not around G and ACG. The results indicate that the fluoride releasing resin-ionomer cement provided good adhesion and caries inhibition in enamel and dentin. (+info)Release and recharge of fluoride by restorative materials. (5/364)
This study investigated the release and recharge of fluoride by restorative materials. Resin-modified glass ionomers (RGIs), polyacid-modified composite resins (PMCRs) and resin composite containing fluoride were used for comparison of fluoride release. Non-fluoride-releasing resin composite was used as a control. The amounts of fluoride release from RGIs and PMCRs remarkably increased in the citrate-phosphate acid buffer compared with distilled water. The amounts of fluoride recharged in RGIs increased with the concentration of NaF solution, but those of PMCRs exposed to all concentrations of NaF solutions were less than 1.5 ppm. Neither resin composite containing fluoride and non-fluoride-releasing resin composite gave any evidence of recharge. RGIs and PMCRs affected by acid buffer solution could not recharge much fluoride even if they were immersed in the 1000 ppmF NaF solution. The results suggested that the matrix of RGIs and PMCRs functioned as a reservoir of fluoride, but the functions were lost by acid attack. (+info)Variation, certainty, evidence, and change in dental education: employing evidence-based dentistry in dental education. (6/364)
Variation in health care, and more particularly in dental care, was recently chronicled in a Readers Digest investigative report. The conclusions of this report are consistent with sound scientific studies conducted in various areas of health care, including dental care, which demonstrate substantial variation in the care provided to patients. This variation in care parallels the certainty with which clinicians and faculty members often articulate strongly held, but very different opinions. Using a case-based dental scenario, we present systematic evidence-based methods for accessing dental health care information, evaluating this information for validity and importance, and using this information to make informed curricular and clinical decisions. We also discuss barriers inhibiting these systematic approaches to evidence-based clinical decision making and methods for effectively promoting behavior change in health care professionals. (+info)Study of the fluoridated adhesive resin cement--fluoride release, fluoride uptake and acid resistance of tooth structures. (7/364)
The objectives of this study, were to evaluate the fluoride release from fluoridate adhesive resin cement, fluoride uptake into surrounding tooth structures and the effect of their acid resistance. Several specimens were prepared using a plastic ring mould, from extracted human premolars, and prepared from enamel and dentin of the central area of the buccal surface of bovine teeth. The fluoride release rate of fluoridate adhesive resin cement (PN 200) per day was higher than other materials during the 7-day study period. Fluoride released and fluoride uptake by tooth structures was higher in the fluoridate adhesive resin cement. WDX analysis showed the fluoride concentration on dentin contact area was higher than that of enamel after 60 days of immersion in deionized water. The calcium release values were similar for enamel and dentin plates in the various test materials. The present findings indicated the important enhancement of tooth structure acid resistance by fluoridate material. (+info)Effects of polysiloxane coating of NaF on the release profile of fluoride ion from Bis-GMA/TEGDMA resin containing NaF. (8/364)
The aim of this study was to regulate fluoride release from restorative resin containing NaF using N-(beta-aminoethyl)-gamma-aminopropylmethyldimethoxysilane (AMMS) and evaluate factors that regulate fluoride release from the resin. ESCA analysis, FT-IR measurements along with SEM observations demonstrated that a polysiloxane layer was formed on the surface of NaF treated with AMMS. Bis-GMA/TEGDMA resin containing NaF powder treated with AMMS released lower concentrations of fluoride for longer periods when compared with that containing untreated NaF. However, AMMS treatment of NaF was less effective for the regulation of fluoride released from the resin than gamma-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (gamma-MPTS) treatment, despite its higher hydrophobic polysiloxane layer formation. These findings may have been caused by the higher density of polysiloxane prepared with gamma-MPTS than that prepared with AMMS. The present findings suggested, therefore, that alkoxysilane should be chosen based not only on hydrophobicity but also the density of polysiloxane to effectively regulate fluoride release from the restorative resin containing NaF. (+info)Cariostatic agents are substances that reduce the rate of caries development by inhibiting or interfering with the bacterial plaque formation, metabolism, or acid production, or promoting remineralization of tooth enamel.
Cariostatic agents are substances or medications that are used to prevent or inhibit the development and progression of dental caries, also known as tooth decay or cavities. These agents work by reducing the ability of bacteria in the mouth to produce acid, which can erode the enamel and dentin of the teeth and lead to cavities.
There are several types of cariostatic agents that are commonly used in dental care, including:
1. Fluorides: These are the most widely used and well-studied cariostatic agents. They work by promoting the remineralization of tooth enamel and making it more resistant to acid attacks. Fluoride can be found in toothpaste, mouthwashes, gels, varnishes, and fluoridated water supplies.
2. Antimicrobial agents: These substances work by reducing the population of bacteria in the mouth that contribute to tooth decay. Examples include chlorhexidine, triclosan, and xylitol.
3. Casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP): This is a complex protein that has been shown to help remineralize tooth enamel and reduce the risk of dental caries. It can be found in some toothpastes and mouthwashes.
4. Silver diamine fluoride: This is a topical fluoride compound that contains silver ions, which have antimicrobial properties. It has been shown to be effective in preventing and arresting dental caries, particularly in high-risk populations such as young children and older adults with dry mouth.
It's important to note that while cariostatic agents can help reduce the risk of tooth decay, they are not a substitute for good oral hygiene practices such as brushing twice a day, flossing daily, and visiting the dentist regularly.
Fluorides are inorganic, ionic compounds of fluorine (F-), primarily used in preventive dentistry for caries prevention due to their topical and systemic effects on tooth enamel, making it more resistant to acid dissolution by bacterial acids.
Fluorides are ionic compounds that contain the fluoride anion (F-). In the context of dental and public health, fluorides are commonly used in preventive measures to help reduce tooth decay. They can be found in various forms such as sodium fluoride, stannous fluoride, and calcium fluoride. When these compounds come into contact with saliva, they release fluoride ions that can be absorbed by tooth enamel. This process helps to strengthen the enamel and make it more resistant to acid attacks caused by bacteria in the mouth, which can lead to dental caries or cavities. Fluorides can be topically applied through products like toothpaste, mouth rinses, and fluoride varnishes, or systemically ingested through fluoridated water, salt, or supplements.
'Tooth demineralization' is a pathological process referring to the loss of minerals, particularly calcium and phosphate, from the tooth enamel due to acid dissolution, which can lead to dental caries or cavities if not prevented or treated promptly.
Tooth demineralization is a process that involves the loss of minerals, such as calcium and phosphate, from the hard tissues of the teeth. This process can lead to the development of dental caries or tooth decay. Demineralization occurs when acids produced by bacteria in the mouth attack the enamel of the tooth, dissolving its mineral content. Over time, these attacks can create holes or cavities in the teeth. Fluoride, found in many toothpastes and public water supplies, can help to remineralize teeth and prevent decay. Good oral hygiene practices, such as brushing and flossing regularly, can also help to prevent demineralization by removing plaque and bacteria from the mouth.
Tooth remineralization is the process of restoring lost mineral content, such as calcium and phosphate, to the tooth's enamel through the action of saliva, fluoride, or other agents, thereby enhancing its resistance to decay and cavities.
Tooth remineralization is a natural process by which minerals, such as calcium and phosphate, are redeposited into the microscopic pores (hydroxyapatite crystals) in the enamel of a tooth. This process can help to repair early decay and strengthen the teeth. It occurs when the mouth's pH is neutral or slightly alkaline, which allows the minerals in our saliva, fluoride from toothpaste or other sources, and calcium and phosphate ions from foods to be absorbed into the enamel. Remineralization can be promoted through good oral hygiene practices, such as brushing with a fluoride toothpaste, flossing, and eating a balanced diet that includes foods rich in calcium and phosphate.
Glass Ionomer Cements (GICs) are dental restorative materials composed of a mixture of silicate glass powder and an organic acid, which form a stable, adhesive bond to tooth structure, releasing fluoride ions over time for caries prevention, while providing adequate strength and durability for various clinical applications.
Glass Ionomer Cements (GICs) are a type of dental restorative material that have the ability to chemically bond to tooth structure. They are composed of a mixture of silicate glass powder and an organic acid, such as polyacrylic acid. GICs have several clinical applications in dentistry, including as a filling material for small to moderate sized cavities, as a liner or base under other restorative materials, and as a cement for securing crowns, bridges, and orthodontic appliances.
GICs are known for their biocompatibility, caries inhibition, and adhesion to tooth structure. They also have the ability to release fluoride ions, which can help protect against future decay. However, they are not as strong or wear-resistant as some other dental restorative materials, such as amalgam or composite resin, so they may not be suitable for use in high-load bearing restorations.
GICs can be classified into two main types: conventional and resin-modified. Conventional GICs have a longer setting time and are more prone to moisture sensitivity during placement, while resin-modified GICs contain additional methacrylate monomers that improve their handling properties and shorten their setting time. However, the addition of these monomers may also reduce their fluoride release capacity.
Overall, glass ionomer cements are a valuable dental restorative material due to their unique combination of adhesion, biocompatibility, and caries inhibition properties.
'Dental caries' is a multifactorial, dynamic disease process characterized by demineralization and destruction of dental hard tissues (enamel, dentin) due to bacterial acid production from fermentable carbohydrates, ultimately leading to cavitation if left untreated.
Dental caries, also known as tooth decay or cavities, refers to the damage or breakdown of the hard tissues of the teeth (enamel, dentin, and cementum) due to the activity of acid-producing bacteria. These bacteria ferment sugars from food and drinks, producing acids that dissolve and weaken the tooth structure, leading to cavities.
The process of dental caries development involves several stages:
1. Demineralization: The acidic environment created by bacterial activity causes minerals (calcium and phosphate) to be lost from the tooth surface, making it weaker and more susceptible to decay.
2. Formation of a white spot lesion: As demineralization progresses, a chalky white area appears on the tooth surface, indicating early caries development.
3. Cavity formation: If left untreated, the demineralization process continues, leading to the breakdown and loss of tooth structure, resulting in a cavity or hole in the tooth.
4. Infection and pulp involvement: As the decay progresses deeper into the tooth, it can reach the dental pulp (the soft tissue containing nerves and blood vessels), causing infection, inflammation, and potentially leading to toothache, abscess, or even tooth loss.
Preventing dental caries involves maintaining good oral hygiene, reducing sugar intake, using fluoride toothpaste and mouthwash, and having regular dental check-ups and cleanings. Early detection and treatment of dental caries can help prevent further progression and more severe complications.

- Water makes an excellent bulking agent in terms of cost. (naturalproductsinsider.com)
Inert2
- Like those used in more traditional roles, today's bulking agents should be relatively bland and inert in a particular application. (naturalproductsinsider.com)
- PMID- 19410256 TI - Influence of the activating agent and the inert gas (type and flow) used in an activation process for the porosity development of carbon nanofibers. (nih.gov)
Effect1
- The Microhardness test is used to determine the effect of different agents on tooth microhardness. (jmchemsci.com)
Patients1
- Fluoride gel preparations, applied topically to the teeth, are prophylactically used as effective cariostatic agents in patients receiving radiation therapy. (medscape.com)
Alternative1
- Some are concerned with dental fluorosis especially in a highly fluoridated area, due to the incorporation of high concentrations, so they decided to seek other alternative safe cariostatic agents [ 14 ]. (jmchemsci.com)
Tooth1
- An adhesive or bonding agent binds the filling material to tooth surfaces. (sunnyislesdental.com)
Types1
- Enamel microhardness is a measurement used for the evaluation of the effects of different types of minerals and other agents on the enamel surfaces used in dental experiments to measure the microhardness and hardness of teeth [ 8 ]. (jmchemsci.com)
Load1
- It resembles the microhardness properties of enamel surfaces determined by indentation performed by applying a diamond indenter such as a Vickers or Knoop indenter into the surface of the tested agents under the average of 1 to 1000 gm load measured by a microscope because the indentations are very small [ 9 ].

Control2
- Bulking agents used to serve two elementary functions, but now with wider focus on health, fat content and calorie control, bulking agents fill many more requirements. (naturalproductsinsider.com)
- Now, with the increasing emphasis on health, fat content and calorie control, food product designers need bulking agents that fill many more requirements. (naturalproductsinsider.com)
Content2
- If you go back to the food technology of 30 years ago, bulking agent meant filler,' says Cheryl Mitchell, Ph.D., vice president and head of R&D, California Natural Products, Lathrop, CA. 'The object was to sell more sugar or maltodextrin and reduce the content of the other expensive ingredients. (naturalproductsinsider.com)
- The higher the fluoride content of the agent, the higher the recharging ability. (edu.au)
Application1
- The application of all topical agents will be done by an experienced investigator and the intervention will be delivered in the kindergarten. (who.int)
