Active clinical trials for "Dental Caries"

Few oral exams are performed on 6-year-olds (key age for carious disease). This project aims to increase the number of oral check-ups for 6-year-olds in fragile areas (REP/REP+ areas).

The purpose of this study is to assess the quality and expected lifespan of fillings recorded in the DPBRN "Reasons for replacement and repair of dental restorations" study, and the factors affecting how long the fillings last.

The purpose of this study was to document the reasons for placing the first restoration ("filling") on a previously un-restored surface in a permanent ("adult") tooth.

Oral health has improved considerably in recent decades in Sweden, as well as in other countries. However, despite great improvements with regard to periodontal disease and dental caries in recent decades, global problems still persist, and as a consequence of retaining natural teeth high up in age, the risk for oral disease increases.

Molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) can lead to many clinical conditions and affect oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL).

The fact that dental caries remains a major public health problem mandates that oral-health researchers explore new strategies for assessment of caries risk, as well as for caries prevention and management. Dental caries occurs when acids produced by bacterial glycolysis of dietary carbohydrates causes demineralization of the tooth enamel. A major focus of caries research has been on identifying and characterizing acid-generating bacteria and the mechanisms of acid resistance. The purpose of this study is to investigate the type of bacteria that grows in the mouth and on teeth.

The purpose of this study was to document the reasons for replacement or repair of defective restorations ("fillings") and to record the restorative material of the failed restoration and the material used in the replacement restoration on permanent ("adult") teeth.

This study is observational only and is intended to evaluate changes in the makeup and function of bacteria naturally present in the mouth during treatment with braces to straighten teeth.

The present cross-sectional observational study was conducted after the university ethical committee approved the research (NU/CEC/2020/0339). This study included 376 adults in the age group of 18-40Yrs. The patient information sheet briefed the study details and usage of salivary samples. Informed consent was obtained from participants. Healthy individuals free of associated systemic conditions, individuals not under any nutritional supplementation were included in the study, and lactating mothers, smokers, and menopausal women were excluded
