Delayed dental age was associated with early treatment (OR 3.29, 95% CI 1.08-9.99). Either no or clear overlapping of a canine with the lateral incisor occurred more often in the DAP children, whereas canine inclination did not differ between the groups. The root development stage of the canine was more often either beginning or well advanced in the DAP children.\u0000\u0000\u0000CONCLUSIONS\u0000The children with dental developmental abnormalities more often showed evidence of early treatment for the canines. Monitoring of the erupting canines after the first mixed stage is important to enable timely early treatment.","PeriodicalId":7313,"journal":{"name":"Acta Odontologica Scandinavica","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140653712","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Material and Methods: CBCTs of four human cadaveric preparates were taken in HD and LD mode in two different fields of view 8 × 8 cm2 (LV) and 5 × 5 cm2 (SV). In total, 43 sites of 15 teeth were randomly chosen, and marginal bone loss was measured twice in all protocols at 43 sites of 15 teeth by one calibrated investigator. Bland-Altman plots and Lin's concordance correlation coefficient (CCC) were calculated to assess the extent of agreement of the measurements. Additionally, the rater scored the certainty in each of the measurements.\u0000\u0000\u0000RESULTS\u0000For HD-CBCT CCC of measurements obtained using SV versus LV was 0.991. CCC of measurements obtained using SV versus LV of LD-CBCT was 0.963. Both CCC values indicated excellent agreement between the two volumes in both protocols. CCC also indicated high intramodality correlation between HD-CBCT and LD-CBCT independent of the acquisition volume (0.963 - 0.992). Bland-Altman plots also indicated no substantial differences. Results of certainty scoring showed significant differences (p = 0.004 (LV), p < 0.001(SV)) between the LD and HD-CBCT.\u0000\u0000\u0000CONCLUSIONS\u0000Accuracy of measurements of bone loss shows no clinical noticeable effects depending on the CBCT volume in this ex vivo study.

Basic oral treatment needs, and total operating cost of PDS, total excise tax revenue generated from sugary products and average sugar consumed (kg per capita) during the years 2011-2020 were obtained. Simplified panel analyses and sensitivity analyses were used to evaluate the effects of explanatory variables on outcomes. Results: An approximate one EUR 1,000,000 increase in total excise tax revenue generated from sugary products corresponds to a 0.4% increase in total operating cost of PDS. There was a significant positive trend in total operating cost of PDS in Finland over the study period. Similarly, an approximate one EUR 1,000,000 rise in total excise tax revenue corresponds to a 0.2% increase in basic oral treatment needs.

The patients were compared retrospectively using patients' hospital records. The majority of patients did not have any cleft-associated syndrome.
