We explored the association between social factors and adult periodontitis by comparing self-reported information for daily strains symptoms of depression in 71 cases 77 controls. Cases controls were selected from among 1,426 participants Erie County Risk Factor Study. found differences those who scored higher than their peers on measures strain. The odds ratio (OR) 95% confidence interval (95% CI) case status Role Strain score 2.27 or more was 2.84, CI = 1.08 to 7.46. also examined serum...
Abstract Xerostomia is the subjective sensation of dry mouth. Estimates on occurrence xerostomia in community‐dwelling adults have ranged from 10% among persons over age 50 to 40% for 65. Virtually no data are available under 50. To begin establish a database and factors associated with it, cross‐sectional assessment self‐reported symptoms salivary function was conducted across broad age‐range generally healthy adults. A convenience sample 710 who 19 88 years drawn various sources...
Introduction: National data on dental caries and service use among immigrant children in US is limited. It not known whether race/ethnicity would interact with immigration status to increase these disparities. Using a national representative sample, we assessed the interaction effects of generation visits US.Methods: Data were from 2020 2021 Survey Children's Health (NSCH). All self-reported by parents/guardians. The two outcomes (1) (yes/no) past 12 months, (2) preventive months....
ContextExperiments show that dental caries rates are higher among lead-exposed animals, but this association has not been established in humans.ObjectiveTo examine the relationship between blood lead levels and caries.DesignCross-sectional survey conducted from 1988 to 1994 included a examination venipuncture assay.Setting ParticipantsA total of 24,901 persons aged 2 years older who participated Third National Health Nutrition Examination Survey, which assessed health nutritional status...
Abstract: Objective: The purpose of this study was to test the retention metal copings fabricated fit on one‐groove, one flat‐sided solid titanium abutment using six different cements. Materials and methods: Ten hollow screw 3.8 mm ITI implants were mounted in acrylic resin blocks. A placed each implant torqued at 35 Ncm. Prefabricated burn‐out caps wax loops added occlusal surface allow for subsequent testing. All plastic embedded phosphate‐bonded investment cast with noble alloy. Castings...
This randomized, double-blind study tested the caries-preventive efficacy of prenatal fluoride supplementation in 798 children followed until age 5. Initially, 1,400 women first trimester pregnancy residing communities served by fluoride-deficient drinking water were randomly assigned to one two groups. During last 6 months treatment group received 1 mg daily form a tablet and control placebo. Both subjects encouraged use postnatal dietary supplements. Caries was measured at ages 3 5 while...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect bilateral disk displacement without reduction (BDDN) on skeletal and dental pattern affected individuals. There were 59 symptomatic female patients 46 asymptomatic normal volunteers. All participants had high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging scans in sagittal (closed open) coronal (closed) planes temporomandibular joints. Linear angular cephalometric measurements taken skeletal, denture base, characteristics two groups. A smaller...
Abstract Objective To assess disparities in preventive dental service use four major racial/ethnic groups and whether income‐related among children were reduced from 2016 to 2020.
