The protocol involved instrumentation of root canals and obturation with a zinc oxide-eugenol paste. Follow-up examinations were performed until exfoliation of the primary molars and full eruption of the successor premolar. Permanent premolars were assessed for developmental defects of enamel, ectopic eruption, and crown rotation. Logistic regression was used to explore variables associated with these outcomes.Results: Forty-seven children were followed up for approximately 6 years. Among the successor permanent premolars, 21.3% presented crown rotation, 10.6% ectopic eruption, 6.4% enamel hypomineralization, and 2.1% enamel hypoplasia. No statistically significant association was observed between the assessed alterations and demographic or treatment-related variables, including pulp status, interradicular lesion, root resorption, or root overfilling (p > 0.05).Conclusion: Eruptive alterations were the most frequent findings. No association was identified between variables related to the endodontic treatment of primary molars and subsequent clinical alterations in permanent premolars.","PeriodicalId":14268,"journal":{"name":"International journal of paediatric dentistry","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144764873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Parents (n = 171) were presented with an antibiotic bottle, dosing syringe, medication package insert, and a standard prescription.

Individuals with mouth breathing exhibited increased gingival bleeding, plaque accumulation, and gingival alterations.

Adjusted odds ratios (OR) were estimated using binary logistic regression with a hierarchical approach.Results: SPDTN was reported by 41.4% of the sample. Older adolescents were more likely to have SPDTN than younger ones (OR = 1.14). Those who self-rated their oral health negatively had 3.92 times greater odds of having SPDTN than those who rated it positively. SPDTN was directly associated with negative perceptions of dental appearance (OR = 2.97), chewing (OR = 1.80) and relationships with others affected by oral health (OR = 1.59). Moreover, SPDTN was associated with adolescents reporting toothache (OR = 1.78) and bleeding gums (OR = 1.41). High consumption of sweets and going to the dentist due to a toothache instead of periodic examinations increased the odds of SPDTN by 1.46 and 2.36, respectively.Conclusions: The prevalence of SPDTN among adolescents was high and associated with negative perceptions regarding their oral health, unhealthy behaviours and older age.","PeriodicalId":14268,"journal":{"name":"International journal of paediatric dentistry","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144707454","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The associations between predictor variables and OI were evaluated through logistic regression analyses. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated.Results: Of 1089 patients, 352 (32%) had signs of OI. The most common infection findings were fistula (59%) and abscess formation (36%). Primary teeth were involved in 96% of cases. Severe odontogenic infections were rare (3%). The odds of OIs were significantly higher among girls compared to boys (OR = 1.346; 95% CI: 1.043-1.737; p = 0.022). Patients with previous GA dental treatment, neurodevelopmental disorders, chronic diseases, or intellectual disabilities had fewer OIs.Conclusion: OIs are common in patients undergoing dental treatment under GA, with nearly one-third having findings of infections. However, severe OIs are rare in children.

However, IOTN scores correlated with SDSC (p = 0.033), suggesting a link between malocclusion severity and sleep disturbances.

Collected data included patient demographics, medical history, OI site, treatment received, and length of hospital stay (LOS).Results: A total of 153 children admitted to the ED, with a mean age of 7.07 ± 2.4 years, were diagnosed with odontogenic-related extra-oral swelling. The median time to definitive treatment after admission was 1 day, and the average LOS was 2.67 ± 1.5 days. Hospitalization exceeding 2 days was significantly associated with delayed definitive treatment initiation (> 24 h postadmission) and elevated white blood cell (WBC) counts at admission. Infections involving permanent teeth, particularly in children over 6 years old, were also linked to longer LOS.Conclusion: Delayed definitive treatment timing, permanent dentition, and elevated WBC count were significantly associated with the LOS in children with OIs.
