    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : In the late 19th century Retzius observed the presence of nerve fibres in goldfish tooth pulps. However, later studies on the relationship between the dentition and its innervation in non-mammalian vertebrates and its use in experimental research are rare. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Prevalence of dentinogenesis imperfecta and dental aberrations related to genetic findings in osteogenesis imperfecta

    Författare :Kristofer Andersson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous connective tissue disorder, mainly caused by mutations in COL1A1 and COL1A2, the genes encoding collagen type I. The cardinal symptoms include bone fragility and varying degrees of growth retardation. LÄS MER

  4. 13. On Fluoridation of Chewing Sticks (Miswaks) with Respect to Dental Caries

    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

  5. 14. Early correction of unilateral posterior crossbite : evidence-based evaluations of oral health related quality of life, cost-effectiveness and 3D treatment effects

    Författare :Ola Sollenius; Malmö universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Malocclusion;

    Sammanfattning : Unilateral posterior crossbite (UPC) with functional shift is one ofthe most common malocclusions in mixed dentition.

  7. 15. On Dental Caries and Caries-Related Factors in Children and Teenagers

    Författare :Anita Alm; Göteborgs universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : On Dental Caries and Caries-Related Factors in Children and Teenagers Anita Alm, Department of Cariology, Institute of Odontology, Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg, Box 450, SE-405 30 G?teborg, Sweden Dental caries is still a common disease among children and adolescents. The aims of the present thesis were therefore: 1) to investigate the approximal caries prevalence in posterior teeth in 15-year-olds, 2) to study past caries experience in the primary dentition in relation to future caries development and need for treatment, 3) to investigate factors during early childhood which are associated with caries development later in life, and 4) to study the association between age-specific body mass index (isoBMI) and approximal caries status in 15-year-olds.
