Abstract

Objective: Self-medication refers to medication behavior for self-diagnosed symptoms. Oral ulcers are self-medicated lesions in the oral cavity. Dental students have different knowledge about oral cavity lesions and may self-medicate using drugs. This study aimed to determine the self-medication behavior of dental students for oral ulcers. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on dental students in the Faculty of Dentistry from different batch years. Purposive sampling was used to select students with oral ulcer lesions in the last six months. A validated and reliable questionnaire was used to assess self-medication behavior. Data collection using the online form. Student behavior data were presented descriptively and analyzed using a one-way ANOVA test. Results: The mean of self-medication behavior for oral ulcers was observed to be higher for the earliest intake group (2015–2016) of students than for the middle (2017–2018) or most recent (2019–2020) year groups. The results of the one-way ANOVA test showed that the p-value was not significant between the groups of dental students. Conclusion: No difference was observed in the self-medication behavior for oral ulcers among dental students based on their study year.

Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the oral health practices, status, and treatment requirements of adolescents with special healthcare needs attending special education schools in Selangor, Malaysia. The adolescents’ parents perceived challenges to oral healthcare were also established. Methods: The current study employed a cross-sectional approach involving 131 adolescents with varying special needs. The participants were between 13 and 18 years old and fulfilled the pre-determined inclusion criteria. The participants’ parents supplied information on sociodemographic, oral health practices, and possible obstacles to dental care through an online survey form. The oral examination on decay, missing, and filled teeth (DMFT), simplified oral hygiene index (OHI-S), and treatment requirements were performed in the school with teachers in attendance. The chi-square test was then conducted during statistical analyses. Results: Most adolescents examined in this study demonstrated good oral hygiene, recording 0.79 ± 1.49 and 0.73 ± 0.4 mean DMFT and OHI-S scores, respectively. A majority of the participants also reported brushing their teeth more than once daily, while approximately 93.9% employed fluoridated toothpaste. A majority of the participants required oral prophylaxis and restorative treatment. Nevertheless, the most significant barriers perceived by the parents or caregivers were time constraints to bring their child to dental clinics and the child's dental anxiety. The present study found no association between barriers to dental care and dental treatment requirements. Conclusion: The results indicated no correlation between barriers to dental care and dental treatment requirements. The findings might be due to this study being conducted in an urban area in Malaysia. Consequently, a multi-centre study with a bigger sample size is recommended.

Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to determine patients’ positive and negative personality traits in relation to treatment satisfaction and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQOL) in patients who have received dental implant-supported prosthesis. Methods: This study was carried out on 135 adults above the age of 30 who had received reasonable implant treatment and prosthesis in the last 1–24 months in a private and a public dental office. Data collection was carried out using a questionnaire, which was sent to patients via WhatsApp and email. Also, the Persian version of the Oral Health Impact Profile 14 and the Positive Affect Negative Affect Scale were used to collect data related to OHRQOL and personality profiles. A Likert scale was also used to obtain the treatment satisfaction level. Results: Among 135 participants, most reported good oral hygiene and positive affect, with 62.7% rating their oral health as good and a mean PANAS score indicating an overall positive emotional state. Oral health-related quality of life was linked to tooth brushing and self-rated oral health, while satisfaction with implants was influenced by education and emotional affect. Conclusions: Overall, negative personality traits increased the chance of not being satisfied after an implant-supported prosthesis. Meanwhile, people with more positive personality traits had a better chance of being satisfied. Personality traits were not associated with OHRQOL.

Abstract

Objectives: The growing popularity of vaping has introduced additional challenges, as potential health risks are still under investigation. Exploring differences in smoking perceptions between smokers and non-smokers could provide valuable insights into smoking behavior and inform effective intervention strategies. This study aimed to evaluate and compare the perceptions of smoking, specifically vaping and conventional cigarette use, among young adult smokers and non-smokers. Methods: An analytical cross-sectional design was employed, with 542 university students included through random sampling, using a questionnaire consisting of 8 items. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test and Rasch model analysis. Results: Of the subjects, 259 (48%) used vapes and 283 (52%) were non-smokers. The age distribution was as follows: under 19 years (13.51% vs 38.87%), 19-20 years (46.33% vs 32.16%), and over 21 years (40.15% vs 28.98%). The Wright map indicated perceptual differences between smokers and non-smokers, with smokers showing greater agreement with smoking perceptions (>1 logit). Significant differences (p < 0.001) were found in each item across all groups. Conclusion: The study identified distinct perceptual differences regarding smoking between smokers and non-smokers, with smokers having a more favorable perception towards smoking. Non-smokers generally showed a stronger aversion to conventional cigarettes compared to electronic ones. These findings underscore the importance of developing targeted smoking cessation programs that address the specific perceptions and attitudes of both groups.

Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to compare pharyngeal airway and dentoskeletal effects of 2 and 4 premolar extraction treatments in adult patients separately for each gender. Methods: The study was conducted with 60 adults (26 males; 34 females) aged 18-35 years. Individuals were divided into 3 groups as non-extraction, 2-premolar extraction, and 4-premolar extraction. Pre-treatment (T0) and post-treatment (T1) dentoskeletal and pharyngeal airway measurements were performed on cephalometric radiographs. Results: A significant increase in nasopharyngeal airway (PNS-ad2) and anterior hyoid bone movement (CV3ai-H) was observed in the 4-extraction group; whereas in the 2-extraction group, inferior oropharyngeal airway (IAS) narrowing and hyoid bone movement in posterosuperior direction were observed. In the non-extraction group, inferior oropharyngeal airway narrowing and hyoid bone movement in the anteroinferior direction were observed. A significant increase in nasopharyngeal airway, narrowing of oropharyngeal airway, and superior hyoid bone movement were observed in the 2-extraction group in males. In the non-extraction and 4-extraction groups, the hyoid bone moved in inferior and anterior directions, respectively. While the hyoid bone moved posteriorly in the 2-extraction group in females, there was an increase in nasopharyngeal airway and narrowing of the middle oropharyngeal airway (MAS) in the 4-extraction group. Conclusion: While the nasopharyngeal airway was widened in individuals with 4-extractions, the inferior oropharyngeal airway was narrowed in both the 2-extraction and non-extraction groups. Hyoid bone movement was observed in anterior, posterosuperior, and anteroinferior directions in 4-extraction, 2-extraction, and non-extraction patients, respectively, and these changes vary according to gender.

Abstract

Objectives: It is challenging to achieve satisfactory outcomes in a complete denture for patients with resorbed residual ridges. Utilization of neutral zone techniques to guide posterior denture tooth arrangement and denture base contouring has been considered for many decades. However, the evidence is still not enough to revise protocols. This study aimed to compare patient satisfaction and stability of neutral zone denture with conventional denture. Methods: A crossover clinical trial was conducted among patients with resorbed mandibular ridges. Each participant received two sets of dentures: one fabricated using the neutral zone technique and one using the conventional method, in a randomized sequence. Denture stability was assessed clinically at the time of insertion. Patient satisfaction was recorded after three weeks of wearing each denture using a structured questionnaire. Data were analyzed using paired t-tests for within-subject comparisons, and carryover effects were evaluated using pre-test. Results: The carry-over effect was not statistically significant for both satisfaction (p = 0.099) and stability (p = 0.316). The stability of neutral zone denture was significantly higher than conventional denture (p = 0.043). Conclusion: Dentures prepared using neutral zone technique have been found to be more stable when compared to ones prepared using conventional methods.

Abstract

Objective: In this work, Hyflex CM, TruNatomy, and Plex V heat-treated nickel titanium rotary instruments were evaluated at body temperature (36 °C ± 1 °C) with and without a cooling protocol to assess the cyclic fatigue resistance. Methods: A 90° curved stainless-steel block was used for cyclic fatigue tests on 60 randomly selected rotary instruments, divided into two groups of 30: body temperature (n = 10) and body temperature with cooling (n = 10). Instruments were further subdivided into 6 groups of 3 different instruments. Cooling protocol group instruments received 5-second spray cooling every 30 seconds, along with continuous 5% sodium hypochlorite. Instrument fractures were recorded via audiovisual methods, inspected under a stereomicroscope, and statistically analyzed. Results: Significant cyclic fatigue resistance was observed in both body temperature and cooling protocol groups in intergroup and intragroup comparisons. Plex V files outperformed others at body temperature, while TruNatomy showed superior cyclic fatigue resistance in the cooling protocol group. Each group displayed expected signs of cyclic fatigue behavior under the stereomicroscope. Conclusion: All three instruments showed comparable cyclic fatigue resistance at body temperature, and the cooling treatment enhanced their resistance. TruNatomy presents a better outcome than other tested files after the cooling protocol.

Abstract

Objective: Reliable tissue adhesion to glass slides is critical for accurate histological evaluation. Egg albumen, a commonly used coating agent, often results in background staining and inconsistent performance. Aloe vera, known for its biocompatibility and adhesive properties, presents a sustainable alternative. This study aimed to develop a novel aloe vera–vinegar gel formulation and compare its slide-coating performance with that of traditional egg albumen. Methods: Fresh Aloe vera gel was extracted and combined with nonfruit vinegar, filtered, and refrigerated. Thirty paraffin-embedded tissue sections were divided into two groups: one coated with aloe vera–vinegar gel and the other coated with egg albumen. The slides were stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Two blinded observers evaluated parameters, including viscosity, adhesion, background staining, and stain intensity. The data were analysed via independent t-tests and Cohen’s kappa. Results: The viscosity (p < 0.001) and stain intensity (p = 0.002) of aloe vera–vinegar gel were significantly greater than those of egg albumen. It showed minimal background staining and consistent tissue adherence. The level of observer agreement was high across the assessments. Conclusion: Aloe vera–vinegar gel is a viable, eco-friendly alternative to egg albumen for histological slide coating. Its superior viscosity, enhanced staining characteristics, and cleaner background support its potential for routine use. Future studies should include objective physical property analyses to further validate its application.

Abstract

Papillon–Lefèvre syndrome (PLS) is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in the cathepsin C gene and inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern. The risk of its occurrence is heightened by consanguineous marriages. PLS affects both genders and presents with hyperkeratotic patches on the hands and feet and precocious aggressive periodontitis. Although teeth initially erupt normally, rapid resorption in periodontal tissues leads to swift tooth loss, and prosthetic rehabilitation is complicated due to aggressive alveolar bone resorption. Case report: In 2021, a brother and sister sought dental treatment at Gazi University’s Faculty of Dentistry. After thorough examinations, the brother underwent total teeth extraction and subsequently received prosthetic treatment, while the sister opted for a removable prosthesis post-extraction. Two years later, the brother’s prosthesis showed no issues, justifying its continued use. However, the sister required a total prosthesis after total teeth extraction. Regular check-ups are essential for both patients, as they are candidates for dental implants after growth and development completion. Conclusion: It is important to note that PLS is a rare condition; therefore, vigilant dental diagnosis and effective management are crucial.

Abstract

Objective: The study aims to demonstrate the efficacy of resin-infiltration in masking white spot lesions and enamel defects, color stability, and caries progression inhibition in primary and permanent teeth. Methods: PubMed, Cochrane library, Wiley Online Library, and Google Scholar databases were searched from 2018 to 2022 and only randomized controlled clinical trials (RCT’s) were included. The studies were analyzed regarding the clinical efficacy of resin-infiltration in masking white spot lesions and enamel defects, color stability, and inhibition of caries progression. Results: Of the 14 articles identified, 5 RCTs were included. The quality of the studies was assessed to be high concerning allocation and outcomes. All the included studies showed significant differences in caries progression, masking, and color stability between test and control groups. Conclusion: The use of resin filtration significantly improved clinical outcomes in controlling proximal caries lesions and masking and color stability of enamel defects on smooth surfaces, compared to other non-invasive approaches.
