Influence of rubbing during etching on surface roughness and interfacial characteristics of intact enamel

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Rubbing phosphoric acid during etching has been shown to improve surface roughness in prepared enamel. This study aimed to compare intact enamel's surface roughness and resin tag lengths after etching with and without rubbing. Extracted sound third molars were used for testing, mesially for conventional and distally for dynamic (rubbing ...

Remarkable decline and sustained low levels of caries in the Nordic populations—Explanations and implications for public oral health

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Community water fluoridation has been acclaimed as an effective mode of caries control at the population level. However, a recent review has concluded that in high‐income populations with widespread access to topical fluorides, water fluoridation (0.7 ppm F) has a minor effect on the development of caries.

The Impact of Nutritional Status on Oral Health Outcomes and Management in Older Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Gerodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This systematic review and meta‐analysis evaluated the relationship between nutritional status and the oral health of older adults (aged 75 years or older). The PECO focus question was, ‘What is the occurrence, association and impact of nutritional state on the oral health outcomes and its management in older adults?’ Methods A ...

The Impact of Periodontitis on Oral Health Outcomes in Older Adults: A Systematic Review

Gerodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To systematically review the impact of periodontitis on clinical oral health outcomes and oral health‐related quality of life (OHRQoL) in older adults (≥ 60 years). Background Global evidence shows that severe periodontitis prevalence peaks in the 60s, yet how periodontitis relates specifically to oral health outcomes in older adults

Grading in Gerodontology: A Framework

Gerodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Understanding and anticipating oral health deterioration in older adults requires more than describing their current oral and general health. Risk factors arising from oral, systemic and social domains strongly influence disease progression, care complexity and the ability to maintain function over time.

Potential Applications of Nano Silver Fluoride in the Prevention of Dental Caries in Older Adults: A Scoping Review

Gerodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dental caries remains highly prevalent in older adults and represents a growing public health concern due to increased tooth retention, polypharmacy, hyposalivation and functional limitations. Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) is widely used for caries arrest in this population but causes undesirable tooth staining. Nano Silver Fluoride

Staging in Gerodontology: A Framework

Gerodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Comprehensively, systematically and reproducibly assessing and describing the (oral) health status and care needs of older adults is challenging. We aimed to provide a framework for evaluating and reporting older adults' oral health, capturing general and oral function and disease, as well as oral, systemic and socio‐economic ...

Associations Between Multimorbidity, Polypharmacy and Oral Conditions in Older Adults: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Gerodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This systematic review and meta‐analysis evaluated the relationship between multimorbidity and polypharmacy on the oral health in older adults (aged 75 years or older). The PECO focus question set for this study was, ‘What is the occurrence, association and impact of multimorbidity and polypharmacy on the oral conditions and its ...

Coronal and Root Caries in Older Adults: Associated Factors, Quality of Life Impact, and Treatment—A Scoping Review

Gerodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dental caries remains one of the most common chronic diseases affecting older adults worldwide. As edentulism decreases and more natural teeth are retained into old age, the number of susceptible tooth surfaces increases. Age‐related factors such as polypharmacy, cognitive decline, and reduced oral hygiene skills, together with ...

Implementing Clinical Practice Guidelines for Oral Care for (Frail) Older Patients: Facilitators, Barriers, and Recommendations

Gerodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The Dutch organisation for the development of clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) in oral care known as the Kennisinstituut Mondzorg (KIMO) developed three CPGs to support professionals in oral care for (frail) older patients: (1) treatment of root caries, (2) xerostomia and hyposalivation related to medication and polypharmacy ...
