Explaining gender differences in caries: a multifactorial approach to a multifactorial disease. [PDF]
Many studies have demonstrated that caries rates are higher in women than in men. This review attempts to provide an explanation for this trend by examining each factor which contributes to caries and how the factor differs in men and women. Evidence has

A Model for the Analysis of Caries Occurrence in Primary Molar Tooth Surfaces [PDF]
Recently methods of caries quantification in the primary dentition have moved away from summary ‘whole mouth’ measures at the individual level to methods based on generalised linear modelling (GLM) approaches or survival analysis approaches. However, GLM

Oral health in two heterozygote female twins with congenital lactic acidosis [PDF]
Introduction: Congenital lactic acidosis (CLA) is a rare disease caused by mutations in Mithocondrial DNA (mtDNA), which affects the ability of cells to use energy that causes accumulation of lactic acid in the body.

Role of estrogen related receptor beta (ESRRB) in DFN35B hearing impairment and dental decay [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Congenital forms of hearing impairment can be caused by mutations in the estrogen related receptor beta (ESRRB) gene. Our initial linkage studies suggested the ESRRB locus is linked to high caries experience in humans. METHODS: We tested for

Diagnostic accuracy of cone-beam computed tomography in detecting secondary caries under composite fillings: An in vitro study [PDF]
Purpose: The aim of this in vitro study was to assess the diagnostic performance of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in the detection of secondary carious lesions under composite resin fillings applied to different types of cavities.
