Flavonoids have been considered the main biologically active components in propolis. However, a new variety of flavonoid-free propolis was recently found and chemically classified as type 6. Because it showed activity against oral microorganisms, this study evaluated effects crude ethanolic extract its chemical fractions on purified glucosyltransferases (GTFs) growth adherence mutans streptococci. The inhibitory effect extracts GTF activities determined either solution or adsorbed onto...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the association pacifier-sucking habit with occlusal and oral myofunctional alterations in preschool children. Eighty-four 2- 5-year-old children participated study. Data on duration frequency pacifier use were collected from parents or guardians. Occlusal characteristics examined by a dentist speech therapist, respectively. Chi-square tests Poisson regression used analyze data. that significantly associated anterior open bite, altered canine...
The relationship between stress, salivary flow rate and oral volatile sulfur‐containing compounds (VSCs) is not clearly established. Two stressful situations were studied: psychological stress caused by a biochemistry examination (Study I) psycho‐physiological premenstrual syndrome (PMS) II). Seventy‐one undergraduate dental students took part in Study I VSCs measured 1 wk before the examination, on day of after. In II, 50 women selected (23 with 27 without PMS) measurements made during...
Abstract Purpose To assess in situ the enamel mineralization level and susceptibility to coffee staining after in‐office bleaching. Materials Methods Thirty‐six human dental fragments assembled into intraoral devices were bleached with 35% hydrogen peroxide treated as follows: (group 1) no contact coffee; 2) immersion a solution for 30 minutes daily 7 days, starting 1 week bleaching; 3) 14 immediately Enamel color assessed before bleaching ( T 1), 2), days 4). The CIE whiteness index W *)...
Ionomeric materials release different proportions of fluoride and aluminum. Their simultaneous effect on the acidogenicity composition S. mutans biofilm is unknown. Six cylindrical specimens each material (Ketac-fil, Vitremer, Fuji-Ortho LC, F-2000, Z-100) were incubated with GS-5 in culture media containing 5% sucrose (w/v). The changed daily for seven days, during which pH concentrations aluminum determined. Furthermore, these ions insoluble polysaccharide determined formed at end...
To evaluate fluoride and aluminum concentration in herbal, black, ready-to-drink, imported teas available Brazil considering the risks pose to oral general health, respectively.One-hundred seventy-seven samples of herbal black tea, 11 types tea 21 ready-to-drink were divided into four groups: I-herbal tea; II-Brazilian (Camellia sinensis); III-imported IV-ready-to-drink tea-based beverages. Fluoride analyzed using ion-selective electrode atomic absorption, respectively.Fluoride levels very...
Abstract Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect tongue scraping and inter‐dental flossing on morning bad breath in periodontally healthy subjects. Methods: A four‐step blind, cross‐over conducted 19 volunteers, divided into four groups: Group I: tooth brushing; II: brushing flossing; III: scraping; IV: brushing, scraping. volunteers performed these oral hygiene procedures three times a day for 7 days. Seven‐day wash‐out intervals were observed. Morning mouth assessed...
Abstract Background Dental implants, indicated for re‐establishing both mastigatory and aesthetic functions, can be placed in the sockets immediately after tooth extraction. Most studies investigate anterior upper regions of dental arch, whereas few examine longitudinal appraisal immediate implant installation mandibular molar region. Objective The aim this retrospective study was to evaluate success rate implants placement molars within a follow‐up period as long 8 years. Materials methods...
Photodynamic therapy has been considered a potential antimicrobial modality against oral infections, including dental caries. A model to estimate the penetration of both photosensitizers and light through human dentin, factor interest in photodynamic therapy, is proposed. The photoacoustic spectroscopy technique was used evaluate vitro dentin permeability three different photosensitizers. Using optical absorption scattering coefficients, it possible propose semi-quantitative predicting...
Current Brazilian law regarding water fluoridation classification is dichotomous with respect to the risks of and benefits for oral diseases, fluoride (F) concentrations less than 0.6 or above 0.8 mg F/L are considered outside normal limits. Thus, does not consider that both caries fluorosis dependent on dosage duration exposure because they chronic diseases. Therefore, this study evaluated quality in Maringá, PR, Brazil, considering a new concentration F supply, based anticaries benefit...
This study evaluated the effect of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) on S. mutans using diacetylcurcumin (DAC) and verified DAC toxicity. In vitro, biofilms were exposed to curcumin (CUR) light-irradiated. Biofilms collected, plated incubated for colony counts. CUR toxicity assays conducted with Human Gingival Fibroblast cells (HGF). vivo, G. mellonella larvae injected treated DAC, aPDT. The hemolymph was Significant reductions observed when alone used aPDT applied. HGF demonstrated...

Since the efficacy of topical fluoride products is related to (F) availability and its reactivity with enamel, this study was conducted. The F concentration following materials verified: I- acidulated phosphate (APF) gel (1.23% F), II- APF foam F) III- Varnish (2.26% F). Forty blocks bovine enamel were divided into 4 groups treated according described, being one them used as control. Loosely bound (''CaF2'') determined on after extraction 1.0M KOH analyzed by ion-selective electrode. Total...
