It is a well-established fact that periodontal diseases are linked to dental plaque. A biofilm is a community of microcolonies of microorganisms in an aqueous solution that is surrounded by a glycocalyx matrix. This matrix also binds the bacterial cells to a solid substratum (surface), which can be hard or soft tissues or inanimate surfaces such as clear aligners, prosthetics, or orthodontic bands of the oral cavity. Although scaling and root planing (SRP) is considered the gold standard for mechanical plaque debridement, it also has some drawbacks, such as inaccessibility to deeper areas on the root surfaces and patient discomfort, including root hypersensitivity. To overcome these disadvantages, minimally invasive nonsurgical approaches have been introduced. One such novel alternative is guided biofilm therapy (GBT), which uses a disclosing agent to visualize the biofilm before removing it with a specialized air-abrasive powder and removing supra- and subgingival calculus with specialized instruments. Biofilm can be effectively removed around an implant or tooth with GBT. As a component of either supportive periodontal therapy or nonsurgical periodontal therapy, GBT was found to have a lower perception of pain and better patient compliance than SRP. GBT, as a monotherapy, can be advised as a basic treatment plan for teeth and implants. The various aspects of GBT in the management of periodontal and peri-implant diseases will be highlighted in this review.","PeriodicalId":31325,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dental Research and Review","volume":"10 1","pages":"67 - 73"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43238273","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: The cross-sectional study design with probability stratified random sampling was used. The data were collected by Type III examination recorded on a structured pro forma adapted from the WHO oral assessment for adults 2013 (by tooth surface) form. Results: The overall prevalence of dental caries by surface (primary and secondary caries) among teachers was 1.6%. The mean decayed-missing-filled teeth (DMFT) were 3.79 ± 2.52 and the mean decayed-missing-filled surfaces (DMFS) were 9.68 ± 7.95. Loss of attachment (LOA) per sextant for score 1 was higher for index tooth 31 among all sextants and in all teacher groups, and the difference was statistically significant in all sextants. Similarly, LOA per sextant for score 1 was higher among female school teachers consuming mixed diet, and the difference was statistically significant for all sextants except for 31 for gender and 11 for type of diet with statistically nonsignificant association. Conclusion: The mean DMFT were reported higher in private school teachers than government teachers which were due to higher filled component in the DMFT indicating better utilization of health services among private teachers. The DMFS were reported higher in government elementary teachers, and the difference was statistically significant with government secondary teachers which is due to higher missing component probably due to lower educational qualification among government elementary teachers with low awareness and reduced utilization of health services. Loss of Attachment indicating the destructive and degenerative periodontal status was a predictor of periodontitis in the study among school teachers in the age group of 41–50 years.","PeriodicalId":31325,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dental Research and Review","volume":"10 1","pages":"96 - 101"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49084942","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In a dental setting, hepatitis B virus (HBV) transmission may occur directly (blood/saliva/nasopharyngeal secretions of infected patient and needlestick injury) or indirectly (through contaminated equipment). The risk of acquiring occupational HBV infection can be prevented by implicating certain policies such as vaccination, strict compliance with standard precautions, adherence to standard infection prevention and control protocols, and use of personal protective equipment and immediate postexposure prophylaxis in case of accidental exposure to infected blood or body fluids. Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the risk of HBV infection in dental professionals based on their knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) and vaccination status score. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted using a self-administered, structured questionnaire with 26 including both open- and close-ended statements such as demography, department, duration of clinical exposure, KAP statements, and vaccination status. A minimum of 80% and 90% score is set to evaluate KAP response and vaccination status, respectively. Data were subjected to statistical analysis using SPSS version 26, an IBM tool. Results: The response rate was 100% (n = 92, male = 48, and female = 44). Among the participants, 78% scored >80% in KAP, the overall mean was 84.17 ± 6.08. Forty-eight percentage of participants scored >90% in vaccination status (overall mean: 79.45 ± 21.965). There was an overall good internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha value > 0.8). In this study, 48% of the study population were found to be safe, whereas 52% are found at risk. Conclusion: The overall awareness regarding HBV was found to be at a fairly satisfactory level. Further, detailed research with a large study population aiming to determine both KAP and immunity status is required to determine the risk to dentists.","PeriodicalId":31325,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dental Research and Review","volume":"10 1","pages":"110 - 116"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41886712","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dental implants are being increasingly used to replace missing teeth among individuals. Regeneration of periodontal ligament (PDL) attachment around implants is under consideration to overcome the shortcomings of osseointegrated implants, and it is now emerging as a new beneficial method for replacing missing teeth. In the last few years, tissue engineering has led to the formation of a PDL around the dental implant called “ligaplants.” Various studies have been carried out in vitro and on test animals. These studies have shown that PDL cells have great potential for regeneration and re-establish connective tissue attachment. The various cells contained in the PDL play a crucial role in the optimal functionality of the tooth bone apparatus. This review article features the advantages and benefits of dental implants when combined with the PDL in comparison with conventional osseointegrated implants. Ligaplants are prepared by combining the biomaterial used in conventional implants with the PDL cells, which provides better biological performance and increases the lifespan of the prosthesis.","PeriodicalId":31325,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dental Research and Review","volume":"10 1","pages":"63 - 66"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46868180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is also known as Atrophica idiopathica mucosae oris and is characterized by a burning sensation in the oral cavity, reduced mouth opening, burning sensation, and decreased tongue movement. Clinically there is blanching of oral mucosa due to the deposition of excessive collagen fibers. Aims: This study aims to estimate the prevalence of oral cancer in a cohort of patients suffering from OSMF and to understand the clinical pattern of oral cancer in these patients. Materials and Methods: It was a unicentric cross-sectional study conducted between January 2022 and January 2023. The study was conducted on 630 patients with clinical presentation of OSMF. Informed consent was obtained from the patient before the start of the study. Results: Data obtained were tabulated and Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 22 was used for analysis. Of 630 subjects, 176 subjects (27.83%) had oral cancer with OSMF. The most common site of the oral cancer was found to be buccal mucosa that was followed by lateral border of the tongue and retromolar trigone. Conclusion: OSMF is a potentially malignant disorder and use of areca nut with smokeless tobacco is the main cause. The use of areca nut and smokeless tobacco must be regularized.","PeriodicalId":31325,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dental Research and Review","volume":"10 1","pages":"91 - 95"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43176093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Background: Dental anomaly is defined as a development disorder in which the defect appears to be different or noticeably variant from the normal form. The correlation between dental anomalies with blood group is well documented; however, the studies conducted between dental anomalies with blood group are very limited. Hence, this study is conducted to find out any correlation between blood group and dental anomalies. Materials and Methods: The current study was carried out on contract-based workers in Chennai. The study included 120 people (81 men and 39 women). The age range for the participants was 20–60 years. The participants underwent a clinical oral examination after being questioned about conduct and socioeconomic status. Each patient's medical and dental histories were recorded. Results: Out of 120 patients screened, 8 patients were referred with dental defects, 5 patients referred with developmental dental anomalies, and 4 patients referred with soft-tissue defects. It was found that the blood group of the patients with soft-tissue defects is found to be O positive, while patients with developmental abnormalities were found to be A positive and patients with blood group with dental defects were found to be B positive.

The aim of the study was to assess the knowledge about MSDs in dental practitioners. Materials and Methods: A self-administered 28-item online questionnaire study was conducted among 100 dental practitioners. The study questionnaire captured demographic details of the participants as well as knowledge of ergonomic practices and MSDs and the nature of treatment. Descriptive analysis was done wherein the qualitative variables were expressed as percentages and proportions, whereas quantitative data were expressed as mean and standard deviation. The Chi-square test was used to check statistical associations and P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: All the participants practiced four-handed dentistry. Only 12% of the responders stated that the ideal position for treating the maxillary arch in patient as supine, whereas 86% responded as semi-supine and 2% as sitting position. Similarly, 97% of the responders rightly answered that the ideal position for treating mandibular arch in patient as semi-supine. Forty percentage of them answered correctly that the word ergonomics means work and law. Seventy-two percentage of the responders think that knowing ergonomics is useful in routine dental practice. Fifty-eight percentage of the dentists believe that stretching exercise during work will reduce muscle tension and stress. Conclusion: The present study provides an insight into ergonomics for dental students during routine dental procedures. Hence, emphasis on providing ergonomic principles both theoretically and practically to dental health-care professionals must be placed in all educational institutions and at continuing dental health programs, and it should be included in the curriculum.","PeriodicalId":31325,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dental Research and Review","volume":"10 1","pages":"106 - 109"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45113590","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
