Though a benign osseous tumour, it exhibits an aggressive behaviouron recurrence. Clinical features vary from swelling, facial asymmetry, mild displacement of teeth, pain orparaesthesia when there is entrapment of nerves.

Abstract

Objectives: The study aimed to assess the oral hygiene levels among tribal children belonging to a specifictribe in the state of Odisha, India and to correlate their teeth cleaning aids used for maintaining oral hygieneand the levels of oral hygiene.Method: Oral hygiene status of a total of 1000 children between 8-13 years of age (boys 467, girls 533)were included in the study. A simplified oral hygiene index (OHI) developed by Greene and Vermillionconsisting of two major components Debris index-simplified and calculus index-simplified was used forexamining the OHI-S. Oral Hygiene Index- Simplified; the scores are as follows: Good: 0.0-1.2; Fair: 1.3-3.0; Poor: 3.1-6.0.Results: The simplified debris index is good for 42.2% of children using toothpaste and toothbrush, 12% ofchildren using indigenous powder with fingers, 3.4% of children using a twig and none of the children usinggudakhu. The simplified calculus index is good for 66.1% of children using toothpaste and toothbrush, 12%of children using indigenous powder with fingers, 5.8% of children using a twig. The simplified oral hygieneindex is good for 68.5% of children using toothpaste and toothbrush, 12% of children using indigenouspowder with fingers, 4.5% of children using a twig and 38.9% of the children have good oral hygiene indexwho are using gudakhu.Conclusions: Data showed that the oral hygiene index scores are mostly poor in the children using theindigenous method of oral hygiene practice. This data could be used as baseline information for healthauthorities and dental professionals for planning strategies for oral health programs in this tribal populationas using addiction-prone tobacco pastes can lead to irreparable damage later in life.

Abstract

Loss of teeth in children is commonly caused due to traumatic exposure or anodontia. It can lead to lossof masticatory function, altered speech, lack of self confidence and mal-alignment of teeth overtime. Thishampers the esthetic and psychosocial development of children. Management of missing teeth can be doneusing removable prosthesis or fixed prosthesis and implants. The removable prosthesis can lead to residualridge resorption and several periodontal problems and can cause oral hygiene maintenance issues in a childfor which dental implants are considered to be an ideal mode of treatment for tooth loss. Placing an implantin a growing child can cause undue effects on maxillary and mandibular skeletal growth for which the dentistmust plan a treatment taking into account the total number of missing teeth, degree of skeletal growth andrelated psychological stress to the child.
