  1. 31. On Caries Risk Profile and Prevention in an Adult Saudi Population

    Författare :Helal Sonbul; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Adults. Approximal caries. Bitewing. Caries risk. Cariogram. Dental restorations. Enamel caries. Fluoride toothpaste. Saudi Arabia.;

    Sammanfattning : Objectives. The aims of this thesis were to evaluate: 1) the caries profile in an adult Saudi population with several dental restorations using a computer-based program (Cariogram), 2) the prevalence of primary and recurrent caries and of filled tooth surfaces in relation to the Cariogram outcome, expressed as “the chance of avoiding caries”, 3) the quality of dental restorations and the additional value of using bitewing radiographs, 4) the effect of a “modified fluoride toothpaste technique” on the incidence and progression of approximal caries diagnosed on bitewings and 5) the preventive effect of this toothpaste technique on buccal and lingual enamel caries and to determine the role of patient compliance.

  3. 32. Optical based technologies for detection of dental caries

    Författare :Lena Karlsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: A conservative, non-invasive or minimally invasive approach to clinical management of dental caries requires diagnostic techniques capable of detecting and quantifying lesions at an early stage, when progression can be arrested or reversed. Objective evidence of initiation of the disease can be detected in the form of distinct changes in the optical properties of the affected tooth structure. LÄS MER

  4. 33. Stop caries Stockholm : a caries-prevention program for children living in multicultural areas with low socioeconomic status

    Författare :Maria Anderson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []

    Sammanfattning : Inequalities in oral health among children persist, despite more general improvements in recent decades. Dental caries still affects children in disadvantaged communities with a multicultural population, both more frequently and more severely. LÄS MER

  5. 34. On Caries Prevention Using Fluoridated Toothpicks and Dental Flosses

    Författare :Barbro Särner; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The prevalence of approximal dental caries is still high worldwide in all age groups. The aim was to evaluate different aspects of fluoridated toothpicks and dental flosses in relation to caries prevention with the emphasis on the approximal area. LÄS MER

  7. 35. Epidemiological studies of dental caries in groups of Swedish children

    Författare :Christina Stecksén-Blicks; Anna-Karin Holm; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; dental care; fluorides; gingivitis; lactobacilli; social conditions; S. mutans; sucrose; sugar; tooth-brushing;

    Sammanfattning : In a cross-sectional study the extent and distribution of dental caries was studied in 817 children, 4, 8 and 13 years old in three areas inSweden. The importance of dietary habits, sugar intake, social conditions, professional dental care, oral hygiene and the use of fluorides on caries prevalence was analyzed. LÄS MER
