This was a retrospective, comparative study using periodontal case notes of 40 subjects attending undergraduates’ periodontal clinics (20 diabetics, 20 non-diabetics), who were selected based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Response towards non surgical periodontal therapy was assessed through three clinical periodontal parameters, namely plaque score, gingivitis score and number of periodontal pocket ≥5mm at the baseline and after initial non surgical periodontal therapy. Data obtained was then analyzed by SPSS Version 12. Both diabetic and non-diabetic subjects showed significant improvements (p-value = 0.021; 0.000; 0.001 and 0.010; 0.014; 0.001) in all three parameters after the therapy. However, when comparison was made between the two groups, there was no significant difference (p-value = 0.913; 0.892 and 0.903) in any of the parameters. Periodontal conditions improved clinically in both diabetic and non-diabetic subjects after non-surgical periodontal therapy. Therefore, both groups responded similarly towards the therapy and thus it can be postulated that well-controlled diabetic status does not have a significant effect on the outcome of periodontal therapy.","PeriodicalId":75515,"journal":{"name":"Annals of dentistry","volume":"20 1","pages":"24-28"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68631160","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}

However their level of oral health knowledge and effectiveness of the training they received are seldom investigated. This study aims to evaluate the of oral health education seminar (OHE) held for public preschool teachers (KEMAS) in terms of the improvement of their knowledge, practices and attitudes Methods: This was a one arm interventional study (before and after survey following OHE seminar intervention). All KEMAS preschool teachers (n=107) in Hulu Terengganu were invited to attend OHE seminar which consisted of 1 hour lecture and 40 minutes OHE demonstration. Pre-test questionnaire was collected before the seminar started and post-test questionnaire was collected two weeks later. A self-administered questionnaire used in this study was adapted from “preschool teachers’ knowledge, practices and attitudes towards oral health”, National Oral Health Survey of Preschool Children, 2005. Data were analysed using descriptive and paired sample t-test, SPSS version 15.0. Results: Of 107 subjects, only 61 teachers responded yielding to 57% response rate. All subjects were female with mean age of 46 years (SD: 6.03). Overall, there was an improvement of teachers’ oral health knowledge, practices and attitudes after the seminar. Several items seem to have be improved significantly after the seminar, for example knowledge item on factors causing periodontal disease (p=0.03). In terms of practice, all teachers reported they brushed teeth at least twice daily using fluoridated toothpaste and use of dental floss was increased significantly after the seminar (p<0.001). Majority of teachers have positive perceptions on their roles in oral health education. Conclusion: Oral health education seminar appeared to be effective at influencing certain aspects of teachers’ oral health knowledge, practices and attitudes.","PeriodicalId":75515,"journal":{"name":"Annals of dentistry","volume":"20 1","pages":"4-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68630931","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}

Objective: To develop and test an index to measure schoolchildren?s oral health knowledge, attitudes, and behaviour as a result of a school-based health promotion programme in Malaysia called the Doktor Muda (Junior Doctor) Programme (DMP). Materials and Methods: The index was developed in English based on the DMP module and translated into Malay. The Malay version was tested on 174, 11-12 year old schoolchildren. Psychometric analysis of the index involved content and face validity tests as well as factor analysis, internal and test-retest reliability. Results: Factor analysis yielded 3 factors with groups of items viz. oral health knowledge (OHK), oral health attitudes (OHA) and oral health behaviour (OHB). The Cronbach?s alpha coefficients of the three factors were 0.61, 0.73, and 0.64, respectively. The Kappa coefficients were 0.70, 0.77 and 0.73, respectively (intraclass correlation coefficients = 0.72, 0.70 and 0.78). The final questionnaire comprised 33 items, namely; OHK 11 items, OHA 15 items, and OHB 7 items. Conclusion: The Health Promotion Questionnaire Index (HPQI) to measure the DMP impact on schoolchildren?s oral health knowledge, attitudes, and behaviours was empirically verified to be valid and reliable for use among 11-12 year old Malaysian schoolchildren.","PeriodicalId":75515,"journal":{"name":"Annals of dentistry","volume":"15 1","pages":"13-19"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68630591","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}

Diabetes mellitus is a systemic complication affecting both the quality and length of life. The inter-relationship between periodontitis and diabetes provides an example of systemic disease predisposing to oral infection and once the infection is established, the oral infection can exacerbate the systemic disease. Diabetes induced changes in immune functions which provide an inflammatory cell phenotype. This predisposes to chronic inflammation, progressive tissue break down and diminished tissue repair capacity. Periodontal tissues frequently manifest these changes because they are constantly wounded by substances emanating from bacterial bio films. The well informed dentist has the opportunity to be at the forefront of diagnosing diabetes. Studies have shown that non-surgical periodontal treatment is associated with improved glycemic control in type II diabetes mellitus patient. Periodontal treatment should be undertaken along with standard measures for diabetic control and care. Prevention and control of periodontal disease must be considered an integral part of diabetes mellitus.","PeriodicalId":75515,"journal":{"name":"Annals of dentistry","volume":"20 1","pages":"27-30"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68630768","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}

Method: A cross sectional survey of dental undergraduate students was conducted at the Faculty of Dentistry, University of Malaya, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia and Universiti Sains Malaysia. Stress was measured using the Dental Environment Stress (DES) questionnaire. A DES-32 item was used to measure stress for the clinical students and DES-16 item for the preclinical students. Four questions were used to measure social support. The total stress scores were standardized for comparison purposes. Results: A total of 357 (79.7%) preclinical and 417 (71.8%) clinical undergraduate dental students responded to the questionnaires. The clinical students experienced higher stress [mean standardized DES score = 72.63, SD = 10.64] than preclinical students [mean standardized DES score = 70.19, SD=12.01]. The two most stressful items reported by preclinical students were ?fear of failing? and ?examination and grades?. Among clinical students, the two most stressful items related to academic were ?completing course requirement? and ?fear of failing course? and items related to clinical session were ?fear of being barred due to the clinical schedule? and ?patients late or absent?. Multiple regression analyses revealed that low stress levels among preclinical students were significantly associated to a lot of contact with students of the same course. Conclusion: To some extent, social support does play a role in explaining differences in perceived stress, in particular among preclinical students.","PeriodicalId":75515,"journal":{"name":"Annals of dentistry","volume":"20 1","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68630531","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}
