T he periodontal status of three groups women; pregnant, taking oral contraceptives, and nonpregnant, were evaluated clinically microbiologically for changes in their gingiva any corresponding the subgingival microbial plaque, specifically percentage Fusobacterium species Bacteroides species. Overall, women had relatively good gingival health. However, statistically significant increased scores observed Gingival Index crevicular fluid flow pregnant group compared with nonpregnant group. The...
The purposes of this 2‐year longitudinal study were to: 1) compare the clinical effectiveness patient applied sodium bicarbonate, hydrogen peroxide, and chloride (S/P) to use conventional oral hygiene methods 2) investigate motivational effect using phase‐contrast microscopy in teaching effective hygiene. Initially, 972 subjects screened for signs periodontitis. From these, 347 with early moderate periodontitis selected each was randomly assigned one four home treatment regimens after...
This study was designed to investigate the effect of conventional oral hygiene ( n = 116 subjects) versus a salt and peroxide regimen 115 on subgingival microorganisms. Subgingival plaque for microscopic evaluation obtained from eight index tooth sites in each 231 adult subjects. Microbial forms were microscopically identified at baseline, 8, 16, 24 months. For both groups, cocci increased P < 0.05) motile rods decreased 8 months returned baseline by 16 Spirochetes remained low through...
The link between energy, water, wastewater, and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions has become an important topic for industrial manufacturing operations. Productivity initiatives across the sector are creating demand energy water programs that reduce operating costs provide environmental benefits. Stakeholders able to elevate need wastewater through various business drivers. Defining leading lagging metrics component toward successfully implementing management program. Energy optimization...
