Prevalence of dental fluorosis in 6–14 year old children in Greater Noida city, Uttar Pradesh – An epidemiological study

SRM Journal of Research in Dental Sciences, 2020
Background: Endemic fluorosis is one of the major health problems in India. About 96% of the fluoride found in the body is in bones and teeth. When ingested in adequate quantities, fluoride is beneficial for teeth by reducing the level of dental caries ...

Comparing Digital and Fluorescent Imaging for Detecting White Spot Lesions in Orthodontic Patients

International Journal of Paediatric Dentistry, Volume 36, Issue 6, Page 875-882, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Background To perform orthodontic movements, brackets and ligatures must be placed on the teeth that facilitate plaque accumulation, which can lead to the formation of demineralization lesions. Aim The purpose of this comparative study was to detect and measure WSLs using digital and fluorescence‐based methods in patients with malocclusions ...

Association Between Hypomineralisation of Second Primary Molars and Tooth Agenesis

International Journal of Paediatric Dentistry, Volume 36, Issue 6, Page 883-889, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Hypomineralisation of second primary molars (HSPM) is an enamel defect with a multifactorial and potentially genetic aetiology. While the association between enamel defects and dental anomalies is a relatively recent area of investigation, it has not yet been explored specifically in cases of HSPM.

Antibiofilm Activity of a Thermoformable Material Loaded With Essential Oil Solution

Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, Volume 12, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Interest in antimicrobial surfaces for dental devices, such as aligners and brackets, is growing. These surfaces are designed to retard biofilm formation. One approach is to load essential oils (EOs) into the material. The focus of this study was the antibacterial, anti‐biofilm, and anti‐inflammatory activities of an EO solution ...

Correlation of fluoride intake with haemoglobin level and intelligence quotient in 8–12 year aged children: an observational study from India

BMC Public Health
Background Fluorosis caused by excess intake of fluoride can affects various soft tissues of the body, such as the gastrointestinal tract, blood, brain tissues and thyroid gland apart from dental fluorosis and skeletal fluorosis. Nonskeletal fluorosis is

Dental fluorosis

SWISS DENTAL JOURNAL SSO – Science and Clinical Topics, 2015
Increased fluoride intake (more than 2 mg per day) over a longer period of time during tooth development causes dental fluorosis. Depending on the amount and concentration of fluoride ingested, the appearance of dental fluorosis can range from fine white lines to massive defects with loss of substance in the enamel surface.
