Active clinical trials for "Mouth Diseases"

The prevalence of tooth decay and other oral diseases are overlooked indicators of overall public health. To improve the understanding of oral health in El Paso, the City of El Paso Health Department will work with Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center at El Paso to determine factors that contribute to poor oral health, and lead to cavities and periodontitis. The team will collect saliva from children and young adults to study oral infections, markers of inflammation, and other contributors to oral illnesses in Mexican-American individuals.

There are severe deficiency of database concerning the oral health status in both pre-dialysis and end stage renal disease in Egyptian population. Our aim in the present study is to assess the oral health of the chronic kidney disease patients to increase their awareness and minimize all the possible risk factors, to achieve a proper management for all oral problems.

The patients with chronic kidney disease suffer from many oral problems affecting the quality of life. The aim of our study is to assess their oral health to provide the proper management and increase their awareness

Oral burning can have a multitude of reasons. Recent neurophysiologic study results suggest that a primary burning mouth disorder (BMD) may be a peripheral and/or a central neuropathic disorder. The aim of this study is to first identify patients with a primary burning mouth disorder by excluding other possible causes for oral burning. By means of qualitative and quantitative sensory testing and a gustatory examination in the individual patient the investigators want to find out whether neurosensory differences exist between patients with a primary BMD and controls and whether gustatory and neurosensory deficits always coexist in BMD-patients.

our aim is estimating the Prevalence and predicting risk factors for developing chronic oral graft versus host disease in pediatric patients subjected to hematopoietic stem cells transplantation

Background. The Covid-19 pandemic reached France in January 2020 and the French government decreed the confinement of the population for eight weeks, from March 17 to May 10, 2020. Dental surgeries were closed and only dental emergency services were provided. Dental surgeries reopened on May 11th, with a limited focus on urgent care, by applying new occupational hygiene standards to limit the circulation of SARS-Cov-2 coronavirus. Hypothesis. From May 11th, chronic patients and elderly patients who come to the hospital for dental consultations will have two risks of malnutrition:

The patients will be selected from the pool of the Clinics (Rheumatology, Ophthalmology and Dermatology) of Faculty of Medicine and (Diagnostic center and Oral Medicine) of Faculty of Dentistry -Cairo University. For each eligible participant, a full history will be obtained followed by thorough clinical examination.

In 2018, 10 detention centers in France will start organisational programs to improve the quality of screening of oral diseases, relatively to French recommendations, among new prisoners in France. Our study aims 1) to assess the prevalence and nosology of oral diseases ; 2) to describe the care pathway of participants during their stay in the detention center where they were included ; 3) to assess the cost of care per patient, from a societal perspective, using a top-down method.
