EFFECT OF XYLITOL ON PLAQUE INDEX AND ACIDITY OF DENTAL BIOFILM AND SALIVA

Journal of IMAB - Annual Proceeding (Scientific Papers)
Introduction: Dental caries is the most common oral disease in childhood, and sucrose plays a significant role in its development. As awareness grows of the health implications surrounding high sugar diets, finding appropriate sugar substitutes becomes crucial. One of the used substitutes is xylitol - a sugar alcohol used as a sweetener.

THE EFFECT OF DENTAL HEALTH EDUCATION USING MUSIC IN DECREASING PLAQUE INDEX OF INTELLECTUALLY DISABLED

Dentino : Jurnal Kedokteran Gigi, 2020
Background: Intellectually disabled (ID) children refer to special needs children whose intelligences are below the average. Poor dental and oral health conditions are a problem that is often found in ID children. Dental health education (DHE) on toothbrushing activity for ID children can be a solution for their dental and oral health problems, however

Morphological plasticity in the dentition of the lungfish Gnathorhiza from the Permian of Brazil: A population‐level geometric morphometric analysis

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dental plates are pivotal in the lungfish paleontological record, constituting highly mineralized structures resilient to diagenetic processes. This study provides a detailed description and quantitative shape analysis of 95 newly discovered Gnathorhiza sp. dental plates from the Middle–Late Permian Corumbataí Formation, Brazil.

The dental aesthetic index and its association with dental caries, dental plaque and socio-demographic variables in schoolchildren

, 2021
Abstract: The Dental Aesthetic Index (DAI) was determined in 12- and 15-year-old schoolchildren to ascertain the prevalence of malocclusion and to assess its association with dental caries experience, dental plaque accumulation, and socio-demographic variables. We performed a cross-sectional study with a stratified two-stage sampling design.

Fibroproliferative Remodeling of Immune‐Vascular Co‐Culture Spheroid Models in Response to Atherogenic Stimulation

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cell‐based models are highly valuable platforms for preclinical studies of atherosclerosis, offering controllable environments to investigate disease mechanisms. Three‐dimensional (3D) spheroids, a class of cell‐based models, enable the study of atherosclerotic disease phenomena under physiologically relevant yet controlled conditions. In this
