In the United Kingdom (UK) over last 10 years, there has been a significant increase in use of vacuum-formed retainers (VFRs) rather than conventional Hawley retainers. There are currently no data to compare cost-effectiveness this change practice. The two aims study were (1) VFRs and 6 months, from perspective National Health Service, orthodontic practice, patient (2) satisfaction retainer groups. A randomized controlled trial (RCT) was carried out specialist Three hundred ninety-seven...
Structured Abstract Objectives To compare oral health and hearing outcomes from the Clinical Standards Advisory Group ( CSAG , 1998) Cleft Care UK CCUK 2013) studies. Setting sample population Two ‐based cross‐sectional studies of 5‐year‐olds born with non‐syndromic unilateral cleft lip palate undertaken 15 years apart. children were treated in a dispersed model care low‐volume operators. centralized, high volume operator system. Materials methods Oral data collected using standardized...
This in vitro investigation was designed to establish not only how clinicians apply forces for space closure when using the straight wire appliance and sliding mechanics, but also quantify initial force levels produced. A single typodont, with residual extraction each quadrant, set up simulate mechanics. On two occasions, at least 2 months apart, 18 were asked three delivery systems manner which they would it a clinical situation. The types of system investigated elastomeric chain, an module...
This paper presents a new in vitro wear simulator based on spatial parallel kinematics and biologically inspired implicit force/position hybrid controller to replicate chewing movements dental formations components, such as crowns, bridges or full set of teeth. The human mandible, guided by passive structures posterior teeth the two temporomandibular joints, moves with up 6 degrees freedom (DOF) Cartesian space. currently available simulators lack ability perform these movements. In many...
This multicentre, retrospective, study assessed the cost, and factors influencing of combined orthodontic surgical treatment for dentofacial deformity. The sample, from a single region in England, comprised 352 subjects treated 11 hospital units who underwent orthognathic surgery between 1 January 1995 31 March 2000. Statistical analysis data was undertaken using non-parametric tests (Spearman Wilcoxon signed rank). average total cost tax year 6 April 2000 to 5 2001 euro6360.19, with costs...
Abstract Introduction The curricula for UK dental specialty training have recently been under review and until 2024, completion of a research component during in Dental Public Health, Oral Microbiology Orthodontics has mandatory (with an alternative route involving the submission two scientific papers those trainees not wishing to undertake higher degree). Anecdotally, some other specialties choose degrees alongside training. Aims aims were investigate how many registrars study training,...
Virtual learning environments (VLEs) are attractive solutions for the delivery of education on-line. Orthodontic online has potential to alleviate some problems caused by increasing demands on academic staff, impact European work time directives and changes in junior doctors' hours. All act constrain effective training orthodontic postgraduates. The design a VLE is driven modern concepts teaching, structure, content assessment methods will help determine range behaviours any programme hopes...
Although accidental inhalation or ingestion episodes are very rare, the consequences can be serious for patient, so it is important when total number of courses dental treatment performed each year considered. This article discusses causes, likely sequelae and management strategies adopted following such incidents.
Abstract Objective: To test the scientific properties of a patient-based questionnaire developed to measure adolescent patient's satisfaction with process orthodontic treatment. Materials and Methods: Forty-nine consecutive patients aged 9 17 years undergoing treatment were asked complete on two separate occasions. Test-retest reliability, readability, ease administration, criterion validity, construct validity tested. All answered at time 1 took part in study. Ten an administration study...
Abstract Introduction Traditionally, the academic content of many 3‐year full‐time postgraduate courses in orthodontics UK has been delivered using tutorial and lecture‐based teaching. This is often teacher lead rather than learner centred. Even with advent teaching modules on national virtual learning environment, although well liked by students, still lead. An alternative on‐line approach to learner‐centred use W ikis. Materials methods Nine students first term their specialist training...
Various factors will influence a dental graduate's decision to undertake postgraduate education and training, including encouragement from family, partners staff at individual schools, although there is currently little information available regarding the number distribution (by school) of recent graduates undertaking studies. The aim this study was analyse data on qualifications achieved by dentists who graduated UK schools between 2000 2009 relate graduate gender. Data were collected...
