The literature on the prevention of early childhood caries is extensive, robust, and consistent. Yet epidemiological data have not improved in proportion to the effort invested. Early childhood caries remains one of the most prevalent chronic diseases worldwide. Evidently, a substantial gap persists between knowledge and practice. The issue does not lie in the quality of the evidence. Rather, it lies in the assumption, too often implicit, that dissemination alone is sufficient to translate evidence into action. We have produced rigorous and well-argued documents, assuming that their intrinsic strength would be enough to modify behaviours. It is not. Between recommendations and everyday practice lies a divide that no consensus statement, in isolation, can bridge. A shift in perspective is therefore required. Not less research, but different research: fewer studies on what is already known to be effective, and greater focus on how to make such interventions genuinely adoptable in vulnerable contexts-among families with limited time and difficult access, within the constraints of brief paediatric consultations, and in healthcare systems operating under pressure and with limited resources. Evidence-based medicine has taught us to ask whether an intervention is effective; today, we must add an equally critical question: how can we ensure its actual implementation? Alongside evidence of efficacy, we therefore need evidence-based implementation, capable of identifying the conditions, organisational frameworks, and engagement strategies that render interventions feasible in routine practice. Implementation science is not a secondary discipline; it is the missing one. Idealism without pragmatism produces literature. Pragmatism guided by ideals produces health. Paediatric prevention requires the latter, and the scientific community, if it is to remain true to its mission, cannot afford to overlook it. Knowledge without change is insufficient; it is merely nostalgia.","PeriodicalId":11930,"journal":{"name":"European journal of paediatric dentistry","volume":"27 3","pages":"166-167"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148886762","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A simplified caries risk assessment tool was developed and structured into a colour-coded evaluation grid. The tool was tested in a paediatric clinical setting on 494 patients aged 0-16 years, of whom 417 met the inclusion criteria and were analysed. Each assessment was completed by a dentist, dental assistant or dental hygienist after standardised training. Descriptive statistics were applied to evaluate the distribution of risk scores and associated variables.Conclusion: The simplified tool demonstrated good applicability in routine paediatric care and enabled consistent identification of individual caries risk profiles.

Although alternative smoking devices like IQOS and e-cigarettes are marketed as harm reduction tools, their impact on paediatric oral health remains underexplored. This study evaluates the effects of SHS from conventional cigarettes, IQOS, and e-cigarettes on cotinine levels in gingival crevicular fluid and the risk of dental caries in children.Materials: A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 160 children aged 3 to 14 years, categorised into four groups based on exposure: SHS from conventional cigarettes, SHA (secondhand aerosol) from IQOS, e-cigarettes, and a no-smoking control group. Each group included 40 participants, ensuring an equal distribution across exposure conditions. Children in the SHS/SHA groups were exclusively exposed to emissions from a single product type (cigarettes, IQOS, or e-cigarettes) to isolate product-specific effects. Cotinine levels were measured using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), and dental caries were assessed via the Decayed-Missing-Filled Teeth (DMFT) index. Parental smoking habits, oral health behaviours, and environmental factors were recorded through a questionnaire. Statistical analyses included one-way ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis tests, and Spearman's correlation.Conclusion: SHS exposure from all sources negatively impacts children's oral health, with conventional cigarettes posing the greatest risk. While IQOS and e-cigarettes reduce SHS exposure compared to conventional cigarettes, they still result in measurable nicotine absorption and increased caries risk. Public health strategies and clinical interventions should prioritise creating smoke-free environments and raising awareness about the risks of SHS/SHA from all nicotine-containing products on paediatric health.","PeriodicalId":11930,"journal":{"name":"European journal of paediatric dentistry","volume":" ","pages":"97-102"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2026-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145184911","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Modern dietary habits, characterised by softer food textures, reduce masticatory demand, potentially contributing to maxillary hypoplasia. However, the translational impact of dietary consistency on general health and craniofacial development remains underexplored.Methods: A case-control study was conducted with 106 participants divided into two groups: case (posterior crossbite) and control (non-crossbite). Dietary habits were assessed through a validated questionnaire that categorised foods by consistency. Masticatory cycles were analysed using a kinesiograph to identify normal, reverse, and atypical patterns. Statistical analyses included chi-square tests and regression models, with significance set at p < 0.05.Conclusion: This study confirms a significant association between dietary consistency, masticatory patterns, and posterior crossbite. The findings underscore the role of dietary texture in craniofacial development, highlighting the importance of preventive dietary strategies to support both craniofacial growth and general health.

This scoping review evaluates clinical adherence to the International Association of Dental Traumatology (IADT) guidelines for the replantation of avulsed permanent teeth, with a specific focus on the 2012 and 2020 versions. A comprehensive search of PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science yielded 812 records, from which 92 studies were included after rigorous screening. Findings indicate that while adherence to IADT guidelines is generally observed, a greater alignment with the 2012 guidelines persists even in cases reported after the 2020 update. Adaptations of the guidelines were common, often reflecting case-specific considerations. Despite the IADT's standardized framework, long-term outcomes for replanted teeth remain unpredictable, with failure rates ranging from 55% to 96%. Key challenges include complications like ankylosis and root resorption, particularly in delayed replantation. These issues underscore the need for enhanced focus on long-term management and prognosis in future guideline updates. The review highlights the critical role of replantation in preserving aesthetics, functionality, and psychological stability, especially for adolescents in developmental stages. However, limitations in current guidelines regarding long-term care and medico-legal clarity necessitate revisions to address complications, future prosthetic needs, and comprehensive follow-up protocols. Structured guidelines have significantly advanced the management of dental avulsions, yet further research and refinement are essential to improve outcomes and provide clearer medico-legal guidance, ensuring optimal care for affected patients.","PeriodicalId":11930,"journal":{"name":"European journal of paediatric dentistry","volume":" ","pages":"145-152"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2026-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144625639","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
