Deep caries presents a dilemma in terms of which treatment that will render an optimal prognosis by maintaining pulp vitality with absence apical pathology. Previously, 2 randomized clinical trials were performed testing the short-term effects stepwise carious tissue removal versus nonselective to hard dentin or without exposure. The aim this article was report 5-y outcome on these previously treated patients having radiographically well-defined lesions extending into pulpal quarter but...
The caries process in dentin involves the degradation of both mineral and organic matrix. demineralization has been demonstrated to be caused by bacterial acids. However, collagen is considered initiated endogenous proteolytic enzymes, mainly collagenolytic matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). This paper aims relate salivary MMP-8 (or collagenase-2) tissue inhibitor MMP (TIMP-1) levels manifest a large number subjects. A random sample 451 adults (aged 18-87 years) living south Sweden was...
Abstract The association between dental caries experience and socioeconomic status, as reflected in income educational level, is well known. However, some individuals maintain good health despite disadvantage. aim of this qualitative study was to explore salutogenic (health‐promoting) factors among healthy caries‐free young adults low status. Seventeen participants (11 women), 19–23 years age, who were status interviewed in‐depth. interviews transcribed verbatim analysed using content...
Objective: To describe the occurrence of caries disease from a life course perspective using longitudinal data Swedish Quality Registry for Caries and Periodontal Disease (SKaPa). Material Methods: Data seven age cohorts (ages 30–90 years), each followed over 10 years, were retrieved SKaPa. Using three-trajectory model, individuals divided into three trajectories according to their development time: high (15%), moderate (45%), or low (40%). experience was expressed as mean decayed, missing,...
Objective: The aim was to identify caries active individuals among adults by using a trajectory model of longitudinal data from the Swedish national registry (SKaPa) and comparing them with published Dunedin cohort. Materials methods: Data two different age groups (30- 40-year-olds) followed for 10 years were retrieved SKaPa compared birth-cohort study. Using model, subjects divided into three trajectories according their development over time (i.e. high, 15%; moderate, 45%; low, 40%)....
Objective: Odontoblasts are thought to be involved in innate immunity but their precise role this process is not fully understood. Here, we assess effects of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and lipoteichoic acid (LTA), produced by Gram-negative Gram-positive bacteria, respectively, on matrix metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8), interleukin-6 (IL-6) cathelin-related antimicrobial peptide (CRAMP) expression odontoblast-like MDPC-23 cells.Material methods: Gene activity protein production was determined...
