Prevalence and risk factors of root caries in the geriatric population in the rural sector

Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2020
Introduction: Increasing age, long-term deleterious habits, and increased bone resorption leading to the gingival recession have become a significant reason for poor geriatric oral health among which root caries are the most prevalent ones among the ...

Streptococcal Mannose Phosphotransferase System Component IID Is a Novel RANK‐Binding Osteoclastogenic Factor

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Streptococcal mannose phosphotransferase system component IID (Man‐PTSIID) is identified as a novel RANK‐binding osteoclastogenic factor. By directly binding to RANK and activating NF‐κB independently of TLR2, Man‐PTSIID drives osteoclastogenesis and inflammatory bone destruction, uncovering an unexpected microbial mechanism underlying streptococcal ...

Integrated microanatomy and microstructure of the maxillary tooth plate reveal a reinforced feeding system and tougher diet in Late Triassic Hyperodapedontinae (Rhynchosauria, Archosauromorpha)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Hyperodapedontine rhynchosaurs possessed a unique oral apparatus, long interpreted as an adaptation for processing abrasive and resistant plant material. However, the microanatomical and histological evidence supporting this interpretation remains poorly documented.

Co-infection with Cbp+ Streptococcus mutans and Candida albicans is associated with root caries in older adults

Journal of Oral Microbiology
Background: Gingival recession increases with age, exposing root surfaces and raising susceptibility to root caries. As the global population ages, root caries prevalence is expected to rise, underscoring the need to better understand its risk factors ...

Craniofacial growth, modeling, and estimation of milestones

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding craniofacial growth is foundational for research into intra‐ and interspecies variation, evolution, and clinical care. The Craniofacial Growth Consortium Study (CGCS), combines cephalographs from historical growth studies to create a dense longitudinal record of growth from 6 to 22 years of age.

Management of severe bone loss in patients at risk of medication‐related osteonecrosis of the jaw with microsurgery and guided bone regeneration: A case study

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Medication‐related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a challenging complication associated with antiresorptive medications. Its exact pathophysiology remains unclear, but dental extractions and infections are known triggers, complicating prevention, and treatment.

Root Caries in Older Adults

Journal of the California Dental Association, 2015
Older adults are retaining an increasing number of natural teeth, and nearly half of all individuals aged 75 and older have experienced root caries. Root caries is a major cause of tooth loss in older adults, and tooth loss is the most significant negative impact on oral health-related quality of life for the elderly.

Volumetric analysis of root coverage with porcine acellular dermal matrix: Case study

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Gingival recession is prevalent and often treated with coronally advanced flap plus connective tissue graft (CAF+CTG). Porcine acellular dermal matrix (PADM) offers a donor‐site‐free alternative. Contemporary digital imaging allows minimally invasive, three‐dimensional (3D) soft‐tissue assessment. This case report quantified 3D soft‐
