Abstract

ABSTRACTIntroduction: Dental caries is a multifactorial disease that invades the hard tissues of the teeth. Dental caries is among the most common oral manifestations in children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). ASD is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by deficits in social interactions, communication difficulties, and restricted repetitive behavior. ASD children have a higher risk of dental caries due to their difficulty maintaining good oral hygiene and poor diet, such as having a high preference for cariogenic foods. This study aims to analyze the association between cariogenic foods consumption frequency and the occurrence of dental caries in ASD children. Methods: Quantitative study was performed with a cross-sectional design and total sampling techniques on 15 ASD children. Data analysis using Spearman Rank test. Results: This study found (66,7%) of ASD children had low levels of cariogenic foods consumption. Respectively, the ASD children’s deft and DMFT indices were (3.3) and (4.4). A significant value between the frequency of consumption of cariogenic foods and DMFT/deft was (0.297). The level of relationship between the frequency of consumption of cariogenic foods with DMFT/deft is (0.289), indicating a low association. Conclusions: There is no association between cariogenic foods consumption frequency and the occurrence of dental caries in children with ASD. The average indices of DMFT and deft of ASD children are at moderate levels. ASD children have low levels of cariogenic food consumption frequency.Keywords: Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Cariogenic Foods, Dental Caries.

Abstract

Introduction: Age estimation has an important role in the process of human identification and needs to be performed in an efficient, fast, and accurate ways. Age estimation based on the pulp cavity volume of canines was referring to the theory stated that the apposition of secondary dentine during human life could be determined as an age indicator. This study was aimed to estimate the human age based on the pulp volume of canines for chronological estimation. Methods: Forty-one canine teeth from Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) 3D image sample from Dental Hospital of the Faculty of Dentistry Universitas Padjadjaran segmented into dental pulp and enamel were prepared for measurement of pulp volume using the ITK SNAP volumetric software. Descriptive analysis of pulp volume and regression equations were generated from regression analysis of pulp volume and tested for age estimation. Result: Dentine thickness was found to be increased from adolescence age range until adulthood age range. Logarithmic regression between pulp volume was statistically significant (p < 0,001). The coefficient of determination (R2) was 0.753 with a standard deviation of 8.421. Mathematics model for estimating age was: Age = 79.523 – (18.194 x ln(Pulp Volume)). The pulp cavity and dentine thickness were decreasing along the age. The same equation was also used in the same sample. There were several differences between chronological age and estimated age approximately 8.4 years following the regression result of R2 (75.3%). The rest of the sample (24.7%) have a big difference, and this could be affected by modifying variables such as occlusal force and human error measurement procedures. Conclusion: The human age can be estimated by the pulp volume of canines.Keywords: Age estimation, pulp volume, canine, ITK-SNAP, CBCT.

Abstract

Haemodialysis is a medical procedure that artificially filters blood. This procedure is carried out to treat children with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Although haemodialysis is a lifesaving treatment, it also raises many severe oral manifestations associated with ESDR. Among these are increased hypoplasia, enamel opacities, uremic stomatitis, oral bleeding, increased periodontal disease, reduced salivary flow, xerostomia, and an increased tendency of calculus deposition. This paper will discuss the oral manifestations associated with ESRD and their management in children undergoing haemodialysis treatment.
