Abstract Background Comprehensive caries care has shown effectiveness in controlling progression and improving health outcomes by risk, preventing initial-caries lesions progression, patient satisfaction. To date, the caries-progression control of patient-centred risk-based CariesCare International (CCI) system, derived from ICCMS™ for practice (2019), remains unproven. With onset COVID-19 pandemic a previously planned multi-centre RCT shifted to this “Caries OUT” study, aiming assess...
Abstract Background: In 2020, CariesCare International (CCI) -derived from ICCMS- was plannedto be tested for caries-control effectiveness in children by means of a multicenter randomized clinical trial (RCT). Nevertheless, due to the pandemic, RCTs proved unfeasible and aerosol-generating procedures (AGP) were associated with spread COVID-19. Consequently, study design required modified single-interventional CCI had adapted excluding AGP reducing on-site consultation (CCI-adapted)....
Population genetic studies can contribute to current knowledge about the epidemiology of pathogens such as Streptococcus mutans, which is one most widely distributed bacteria in world be associated with human dental caries. In present study, we investigated whether population structure species clonal or recombinant, and also evaluated levels gene flow, admixed ancestry, hypothesis an expansion within last 10 000 years. Strains S. mutans from Cordoba (Argentina) were obtained, sequences genes...
Adolescence is a critical period in the appropriation of knowledge, attitudes and health practices. Objective: To analyze experience caries relation to level oral practices adolescents. Materials methods: An analytical cross-sectional study was carried out 52 adolescents attending Provincial Dental Institute city Córdoba, Argentina. The included clinical dental examination self-administered survey. All participating subjects provided an informed consent signed by their parents or guardians....
In the last two decades, increase in population genetics studies has contributed to elucidating important questions about evolution of pathogenesis bacteria clinical interest. The objective this study is revise and update knowledge fifteen years regarding genetic variability Streptococcus mutans their association with dental caries. mutans, one most widely distributed world, are heavily associated condition. This research shows results numerous carried out various countries that, using...
La región de América Latina se ha convertido en la más afectada del mundo por pandemia COVID-19. Y personas con necesidades especiales, población ya vulnerable, están sufriendo un impacto significativo crisis actual. Dado que estas no pueden dejar ser protegidas y cuidadas, grupo profesores 10 países reunió para analizar situación odontología pacientes especiales región. En todos los países, evidenció el confinamiento las restricciones desplazamiento interrumpiendo acceso a bienes servicios...
Prenatal aspects may infl uence the duration of breastfeeding for newborns. When reduced, it affects their cranio and oro-facial deve- lopment. The aim this study was to correlate delivery types mother's diet with duration. This a descriptive based on records clinical history from 820 pairs mothers newborns attending Baby Clinic University Extension. re- sults were analyzed considering significance level 5%. absence pregnancy complications positive factor occurrence vaginal in 94% sample...
Caries is a worldwide distributed oral disease of multifactorial nature, with Streptococcus mutans being the most commonly isolated bacterial agent. The glycosyltransferases this bacterium would play an essential role in aetiology and pathogenesis caries.We explored how glucosyltransferase-B (gtf-B) gene variability S. from children central Argentina correlated their caries experience these strains were genetically related to those other countries.Dental examinations performed on 59...
