Abstract

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the repair bond strength of aged resin-based CAD/CAM blocks and indirect composites after surface treatment and application of adhesives. Methods: In the study, Lava Ultimate, Ceresmart, Filtek Z550, Filtek Ultimate, and Estelite Quick restorative materials; SE Bond, and Optibond XTR adhesives were used. For surface treatments, 37% orthophosphoric acid and 9% hydrofluoric acid were applied. In the control groups, only adhesive was applied. After repair restorations, the shear bond strength test was applied. Results: In the Lava group of SE Bond, the bonding values of the samples treated with 9% hydrofluoric acid were significantly higher than those treated with 37% phosphoric acid. Comparing the composites, in the samples treated with 37% phosphoric acid, we found the binding values of the Lava to be significantly lower than those of the FZ550, FU, and Estelite. In the OptiBond group, the binding values of the GC Cerec in the control group were lower than those in the FZ550, FU, Estelite, and Lava. Conclusion: It was observed that the repair bond values of the indirect composites were comparable. The repair bond values of the resin-based CAD/CAM blocks are similar but lower than those of the other indirect composites.

Abstract

Objective: To investigate the association between oral health status and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in older adults with diabetes mellitus (DM). Methods: A cross-sectional study involving participants aged 60 and above from a Malaysian healthcare facility utilized structured interviews using the Geriatric Oral Health Assessment Index (GOHAI) questionnaire. Intraoral assessments, including BPE, DMFT index, evaluation of edentulism and assessment of restoration/denture type/quality, were conducted. Statistical analysis included independent sample t-test, one-way ANOVA, nonparametric, and correlation coefficient tests. Results: Among 69 participants (36 with DM, 33 without), with a mean age of 65.97 years, no significant differences in GOHAI scores were found between gender and diabetic status. However, distinctions concerning age were observed in GOHAI scores. Most participants reported poor OHRQoL, with a mean GOHAI score of 45.0 (±7.5). A notable difference was found in the pain and discomfort dimension of GOHAI between diabetic and non-diabetic participants. Conclusion: DM may affect specific dimensions of OHRQoL among older adults, highlighting the importance of comprehensive oral health assessments and tailored interventions. These findings contribute to understanding the diabetes-oral health relationship, informing strategies for improving oral health and quality of life among older adults with DM.

Abstract

Objective: Bichectomy, a surgical procedure that removes the buccal fat pad, can affect masticatory function, including bite force and muscle thickness, in adult women. This study aimed to assess the bite force as well as masseter and temporal muscle thicknesses before and 30 and 60 days after bichectomy in adult women. Methods: This longitudinal study included a sample of 20 adult women (mean age 31.1 ± 9.84 years), with normal occlusion and no history of temporomandibular disorder. The molar bite force was assessed using a dynamometer, while the masseter and temporal muscle thicknesses at rest and during dental clenching were evaluated using an ultrasound device. Data were analyzed using repeated-measures analysis of variance with Bonferroni correction (p < 0.05). Results: Significant differences were noted between periods in both right (p = 0.01) and left molar bite forces (p = 0.05). The right molar bite force decreased 30 days after buccal fat pad removal surgery and increased after 60 days. Conversely, a decline in the left molar bite force was observed during the postsurgical period. No significant differences were detected in masticatory muscle thickness. Conclusion: Buccal fat pad removal surgery affects molar bite force but does not significantly alter masticatory muscle thickness.

Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to assess the knowledge, attitude, oral hygiene practice, and self-perception of periodontal health among the older adult population in Malaysia and its association with demographic factors. Methods: An online questionnaire assessing their knowledge, attitude, oral hygiene practices, and self-perception of periodontal disease was distributed to adults aged 50 years and above. Results: 397 respondents participated. The mean knowledge score was 1.36 (SD 0.92), significantly associated with gender, ethnicity, education, and occupation. About 63% of respondents know that poor oral hygiene is related to general health and is significantly associated with ethnicity (p = 0.016) and occupation (p = 0.009). Most respondents showed good oral hygiene practice but visited the dentist only when necessary (45%). Many of them have positive perceptions of their gum health status (81.6%) and are significantly associated with ethnicity (p = 0.007), education level, and occupations. Conclusion: This study showed inadequate knowledge about periodontal health among older adults. The attitude, practices, and self-perception of periodontal disease are mainly associated with ethnicity, educational levels, and occupations. Awareness of periodontal disease should be reinforced among older adults for better quality of life.

Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of these vitamins in reducing chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis through a randomized, double-blind, cross-over clinical trial. Methods: This study involved 20 participants, primarily female (70%), with an average age of 52.2 years. Participants first received oral vitamin E and A with chemotherapy, followed by a placebo. The severity of mucositis and pain responses were assessed at the start of the study and at 7-, 14-, and 21-day post-treatment initiation. Data analysis was performed using SPSS software with a significance level of 0.05. Results: Twenty patients,14 (70%) females, with a mean age of 52.2 ± 14.37, completed the study. Results indicated no significant relationship between treatment type and mucositis severity at baseline (p = 0.890) and no notable differences in severity between the vitamin and placebo periods (p > 0.05). Additionally, no significant variations in mucositis severity or pain responses were observed throughout the study duration (p > 0.05). Conclusion: In conclusion, oral supplementation of vitamins E and A did not significantly reduce the severity of chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis or alleviate associated pain in participants.

Abstract

Objective: To determine the accuracy of diagnosing oral lesions through clinical photos taken by clinical dental students (CDS). Methods: The observational analytic study was conducted on 100 CDS to evaluate 140 clinical photos of oral lesions. The gold standard was evaluated by three oral medicine specialists. Data analysis will be performed using accuracy and kappa tests. Results: The accuracy rate of lesion detection in CDS is high (88.55%) with substantial agreement (κ = 0.66). However, the accuracy rate of diagnosis is low (38.21%) with no agreement (κ = -0.30). Participation in the clinical Oral Medicine module positively influenced detection accuracy, with the highest rate among students who had completed the module (96.18%). However, diagnostic accuracy remained low across all groups. Conclusion: CDS demonstrates good detection abilities but struggles with accurate diagnosis. Participation in the clinical Oral Medicine module is beneficial for improving detection abilities. Further efforts are needed to enhance diagnostic skills and ensure that CDS are well-prepared for clinical practice.

Abstract

Objective: This study determined the effects of vibrational forces on bone formation in the retention period of an expanded mid-palatal, histomorphometric suture in a rat model. Methods: Twenty-four 7–8- to 8-week-old male Wistar rats weighing 190.25 ± 15.35 g were separated into groups: only expansion (G1), expansion and 30 Hz vibration application (G2), and expansion and 111 Hz vibration application (G3). After 5 days of expansion, there were 12 days of retention. All animals were sacrificed, and their premaxilla were dissected. A histological examination evaluated the number of osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and capillaries, the amount of mineralized area, and the fibrosis area. Results: Statistical analyses showed significant differences among the groups for all parameters. The number of osteoblasts, new bone area, fibrosis area, blood vessels, and measurements demonstrated statistically significant differences. For all histomorphometric parameters except osteoclast numbers, G3 showed more positive results than G1 and G2 regarding new bone formation (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The application of vibrational forces might stimulate bone formation in an orthopedically expanded midpalatal suture during the retention period. These applications may help prevent relapse after the expansion procedure.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of decompression as a treatment approach for radicular cysts in five pediatric patients. Case report: 5 pediatric patients with five cystic lesions from 6 to 11 years old diagnosed with radicular cysts were treated by decompression. Clinical and radiograph data from pre- and post-surgery were collected and analyzed. Complete resolution of all cystic lesions and simultaneous eruption of impacted teeth within the cyst were managed. The mean follow-up time is 25.6 months, and no recurrences were observed. Conclusion: Decompression should be considered a preferred treatment for cystic lesions in children, as it has the advantages of eliminating the development, reducing the extent of the cyst, stimulating bone healing, and facilitating the eruption of the permanent tooth germ.
