1. 26. Smoking, snuffing and oral health with special reference to dental caries

   Författare :Lena Hellqvist; Göteborgs universitet; []

   Sammanfattning : Background and aims: This thesis describes oral health and the use of tobacco with the emphasis on dental caries and Swedish snuff (snus). There appears to be a general opinion in Sweden that snus protects against caries, but there are no scientific studies that support these speculations. LÄS MER

3. 27. On Fluoridation of Chewing Sticks (Miswaks) with Respect to Dental Caries

   Författare :Hosam A Baeshen; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Approximal area; caries lesions; chewing stick Miswak ; fluoride; fluoride retention; fluoride solution; fluoride toothpaste; impregnation; orthodontic patients; saliva; Salvadora Persica;

   Sammanfattning : The chewing stick known as a “Miswak” is a natural toothbrush that is widely used for cleaning the teeth. It has been used for thousands of years in Asia, Africa and the Middle East. The aim of this thesis was to evaluate the Miswak as a vehicle for fluoride delivery in the oral cavity. LÄS MER

4. 28. On approximal caries prevention using fluoridated toothpicks, dental floss and interdental brushes

   Författare :Barbro Särner; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Approximal caries; Dental flosses; De- and re-mineralization; Fluoride; Interproximal aids; Interproximal area; Oral hygiene; Questionnaire; Toothpicks;

   Sammanfattning : Although dental health has improved during the last 40-50 years, approximal caries still constitutes a problem in many age groups. It is important that fluoride (F) toothpaste is used when brushing the teeth. In some subjects, there may be a need for supplementary F products, especially in the caries-prone approximal area.

5. 29. Studies on the Associations between Dental Caries, Periodontal Disease and Different Systemic Conditions

   Författare :Hani T Fadel; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; adipokines; coronary artery disease; dental caries; obesity; periodontal disease; psoriasis; risk assessment;

   Sammanfattning : Background and aims: Dental caries and periodontal disease are the two most common oral diseases in man. Evidence shows that they may be directly or indirectly related to each other and to other systemic conditions. LÄS MER

7. 30. On Caries Risk Profiles Using Cariogram and Caries Prevention with Fluoridated Toothpaste in Orthodontic Patients

   Författare :Anas H Al Mulla; Dowen Birkhed; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Caries lesions. Caries model. Caries risk. Cariogram. QLF. Orthodontic bands. Saudi Arabia. Slurry rinsing. Toothbrushing. Toothpaste. Toothpaste technique. Water rinsin;

   Sammanfattning : Objective. The aims of this thesis were to: 1) analyse caries-related factors shortly after orthodontic treatment, 2) demonstrate the usefulness of the Cariogram by presenting orthodontic patients with different caries-risk profiles, 3) compare two different toothpastes with different post brushing techniques using an in situ caries model with orthodontic bands, and 4) test the hypothesis that toothpaste slurry rinsing, combined with some other simple post-brushing advice (in this thesis called the “modified F toothpaste technique, MFTT“), would reduce the number of decayed and filled tooth surfaces (DFS) in a 2-year randomised clinical trial in orthodontic patients.
