Abstract

The goal of periodontal therapy includes management of bacterial pathogens to control the destruction of the periodontal tissue. A number of different nonsurgical and surgical therapies have been used in achieving this goal. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of doxycycline compared with nonsurgical therapy alone or in combination with nonsurgical therapy on gingival crevicular fluid β-Glucuronidase levels (ßG) and clinical parameters over a 20-week period in patients with chronic periodontitis. Methods: An interventional study comprising 60 patients with chronic periodontitis. They were divided into three groups of different treatment approach. The plaque index, gingival index, probing depth, and clinical attachment levels were recorded, and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) samples were collected at 2, 6, 10, and 20 weeks, after treatment. Results: The levels of GCF βG and clinical parameters were higher when the treatment was initiated, and the levels decreased after treatment. No significant difference was found in the βG level when nonsurgical therapy and doxycycline were used alone. In comparison, when doxycyline and nonsurgical therapy were combined, the level of βG decreased significantly. Conclusion: The present study indicated the usefulness of doxycycline as an adjunct to nonsurgical periodontal therapy in lowering GFC βG levels and clinical parameters.

Abstract

Oral cancer is a progressive, multistage disease in which changes in genetic structure and cellular morphology occur from the normal to the premalignant state and then to the malignant state. Nitric oxide (NO.) is an uncharged molecule with an unpaired electron. It is highly reactive and interacts with DNA molecules, resulting in DNA damage. Objective: To evaluate the salivary nitric oxide levels and buccal epithelial cell DNA damage in patients with potentially malignant oral disorders. Methods: The salivary nitric oxide levels and buccal epithelial cell DNA damage were estimated in 20 healthy individuals without oral lesions, in 20 subjects having smoking and/or tobacco chewing habits without oral lesions, and 20 patients with a potentially malignant oral disorder. Results: The salivary nitric oxide levels were significantly greater in the subjects with tobacco chewing and/or smoking habits without oral lesions than in the healthy controls. Similarly, the extent of DNA damage was higher in the subjects with potentially malignant disorders and in the subjects with tobacco chewing and/or smoking habits without oral lesions than in the healthy controls. Conclusion: The encouraging results of the present study indicated the potential involvement of nitric oxide in the pathogenesis of potentially malignant oral disorders.

Abstract

Erythema multiforme (EM) is an acute mucocutaneous hypersensitivity reaction characterized by skin eruptions with or without oral or other mucous membrane lesions. The main two variants are erythema minor and erythema major. Oral disease with typical EM lesions has been suggested as a third variant of EM. Known as oral EM, it is reported less and has no target lesions unlike the other two types, in its primary presentation. Objective: To report a manifestation of a rare case of oral EM and discuss various forms of EM including its management. Case report: A 22-year-old male patient reported with a complaint of oral and lip ulcers and severe pain for the past 7 days. The patient reported spontaneous onset of the lesions in the form of vesicles after consuming unknown artificially colored food items. The vesicles ruptured within two days leaving ulcers on the lips and the intraoral mucosa, with blood encrustations. The patient was unable to take food, was admitted for hydration, and was kept on corticosteroids. It took around three weeks for the patient to completely recover. Conclusion: The positive his¬tory of artificially colored food intake followed by the sudden onset of lesions and eruptions on the lips and oral mucosa led us to the diagnosis of oral EM. Early recognition and timely intervention benefits patients because the lesions associated with EM and related disorders can compromise life.

Abstract

The color stability and surface uniformity are very important properties for dental aesthetics. Objective: To evaluate the color stability and surface roughness of different composites after artificial accelerated aging (AAA). Methods: Samples were made using the silorane-based Filtek P90 (3M-ESPE), nanohybrid Tetric N-Ceram (Ivoclar Vivadent), and GC Kalore (GC Company). Ceramic D. Sign (Ivoclar Vivadent) and Ketac N100 (3M-ESPE) resin-modified glass ionomer cement (RMGIC) served as controls. The values for color stability and surface roughness were recorded before and after AAA for non-C-UV (300 hours). Color stability was assessed as the difference between the coordinates obtained from the L*a*b* system. The surface roughness was analyzed with a rugosimeter. The surface value of each sample was taken as the average of these measurements. The one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s post-test with α=5% was used. Results: The greatest change in color stability occurred for the RMGIC (ΔE=18.7) and the least for ceramics (ΔE=2.1). No significant difference was noted among the composites (p>0.05). The surface roughness before and after AAA differed significantly only for the RMGIC (p<0.05). Conclusion: The two latest generation resins (Filtek P90 and GC Kalore) showed good results in terms of color stability and surface roughness for use in aesthetic restorations.

Abstract

The studies on electron microstructure of the effect of the use of products that contain casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium fluoride phosphate (CPP-ACPF) on enamel remineralization are still needed. It is important method to observe of the morphological changes of teeth in different conditions. Objective: To evaluate the remineralization potential of paste on enamel lesions using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Methods: Sixty enamel specimens were prepared from extracted human premolars. The specimens were placed in a demineralizing solution for four days to produce artificial carious lesions. The specimens were then randomly assigned to two study groups: group A (control group) and group B. Group B was incubated in remineralizing paste (CPP-ACPF) for 30 minutes per day for 10 days. The control group received no intervention with remineralizing paste. All 60 specimens were stored in artificial saliva at 370C. After remineralization, the samples were observed using SEM. Results: The statistical analysis showed a decrease in the lesion area between the demineralized and remineralized samples, but no significant difference was observed in the lesion depth for group B. There was a significant increase observed in both the lesion depth and lesion area for group A (p = 0.03). Conclusion: The results showed the capacity of CPP-ACPF in supplying calcium and phosphate to the enamel, decreasing the dissolution of the enamel surface and increasing the remineralization of the enamel surface.

Abstract

Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a virus that can compromise the lungs and the liver and cause infection in the gastrointestinal tract. In addition, this virus can cause infectious mononucleosis syndrome, infection in the CNS, and retinitis. Moreover, it has been associated with the development of oral hairy leukoplakia and ulcers. Objective: To report two cases of patients with HIV with oral manifestations associated with CMV infection. Case Report: In the first case, the patient sought medical attention, with complaints of weakness, fever, cough, and weight loss. In the second case, the patient complained of weakness and blurred vision for about a week. Both patients were infected with HIV and made irregular use of antiretroviral therapy. Several ulcers were observed in the mouth that caused much discomfort. The diagnosis of CMV infection was defined by the following tests: enzyme immunoassay fluorescence-CMV IgG and PCR for CMV in real time. Ganciclovir has been used in the treatment of patients, and oral ulcerations received symptomatic treatment. Conclusion: The dentist must be aware that CMV may also be responsible for the development of ulcers in the oral cavity, especially in immunocompromised patients.
