  2. 1. On Dental Trauma in Children and Adolescents : Incidence, Risk, Treatment, Time and Costs

    Author : Ulf Glendor; Arne Halling; Lars Andersson; Åke Nygren; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : adolescence; child; time; incidence; costs; permanent dentition; primary dentition; risk; tooth injuries; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Background: Dental trauma occur in childhood and adolescence with consequences in time and costs for both patient and family. The scientific knowledge of these matters is scarce. For some individuals, dental trauma will result in long, time-consuming and costly treatments in childhood which will continue into adulthood. READ MORE

  4. 2. Clinical aspects of restorative treatment in the primary dentition

    Author : Mirja Varpio; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Child; Child; Preschool; Cohort Studies; Composite Resins; chemistry; DMF Index; Dental Caries; epidemiology; microbiology; pathology; therapy; Dental Cavity Preparation; classification; Dental Enamel; pathology; Dental Restoration; Permanent; statistics numerical data; Follow-Up Studies; Glass Ionomer Cements; chemistry; Humans; Molar; Prevalence; Prosthesis Failure; Recurrence; Sweden; epidemiology; Tooth; Deciduous;

    Abstract : The failure rate of restorative treatment in primary teeth was studied in a cohort of children born in 1981 and related to caries diagnosis, prevalence and distribution on different tooth surfaces, and compared with a cohort of children born in 1971. Concurrently, the longevity of composite resin in modified Class 2 cavities in primary molars was followed up and the resistance of deciduous and permanent enamel to acid adjacent to composite resin and glass polyalkeonate cement (GPA) was tested in vitro.

  5. 3. Reconstruction of the alveolar process in cleft patients

    Author : Fatemeh Jabbari; Daniel Nowinski; Agneta Marcusson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; alveolar bone grafting; dental status; initial cleft size; dental restoration; unilateral cleft lip and palate; cleft lip and alveolus; primary periosteoplasty; facial growth;

    Abstract : Background. The treatment of patients born with cleft lip and palate has been gradually modified over the years as the surgical procedures have developed and improved. Multidisciplinary team care has evolved and provided improved care with enhanced results. Clefts in the alveolus can be reconstructed by alveolar bone grafting or by periosteoplasty. READ MORE

  6. 4. Malocclusions and quality of life : cross-sectional and longitudinal studies in children

    Author : Lillemor Dimberg; Malmö högskola; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Bettfysiologi; Munhälsa; Malocclusion; Orthodontics; Corrective;

    Abstract : There are few longitudinal studies of the prevalence of malocclusionsand possible self-correction of malocclusions during the developmentof the dentition. Early intervention might be unnecessary if self-correction of the malocclusion occurs during the transition from theprimary to the permanent dentition. READ MORE

  7. 5. Biting and chewing behaviours in humans : development and age-related changes

    Author : Nabeel Almotairy; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: The central nervous system initiates chewing and biting behaviours, while the peripheral sensory receptors embedded in various orofacial structures (e.g. masticatory muscles, temporomandibular joint, and periodontium) are responsible for refining those behaviours.
