The objective of the study was to determine the antibiotics knowledge and prescription patterns among dentists in Nigeria.Materials and methods: A total of 160 questionnaires were distributed to dentists attending continuing education courses organized by two organizations in Southern and Northern parts of Nigeria. Data analysis was done using SPSS version 17.0.Results: A total of 146 questionnaires were returned, properly filled, out of 160 questionnaires, giving an overall response rate 91.3%. The clinical factors predominantly influenced the choice of therapeutic antibiotics among the respondents. In this study, the most commonly prescribed antibiotics among the respondents was a combination of amoxicillin and metronidazole. Of the respondents, 136 (93.2%) of them considered antibiotic resistance as a major problem in Nigeria and 102 (69.9%) have experienced antibiotics resistance in dental practice. The major reported conditions for prophylactic antibiotics among the respondents were diabetic mellitus, HIV/AIDS, history of rheumatic fever, other heart anomalies presenting with heart murmur and presence of prosthetic hip. The knowledge of adverse effects of antibiotics was greatest for tooth discoloration which is related to tetracycline.Conclusion: Data from this study revealed the most commonly prescribed antibiotics as a combination of amoxicillin and metronidazole. There existed gaps in prophylactic antibiotic prescription, consideration in the choice of therapeutic antibiotics and knowledge of adverse effects of antibiotics among the studied dentists.","PeriodicalId":76278,"journal":{"name":"Odonto-stomatologie tropicale = Tropical dental journal","volume":"37 147","pages":"34-42"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"33184339","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}

This step is considered sensitive by numerous clinicians and dental laboratories. The objective of this study was to test the ability of professional dentists to visually determine the teeth color.Material and methods: Eleven dentists classified 35 unmarked samples according to their hue, chroma and value from 2 standardized tooth shade guides Ivoclar-Vivadent (Chromascop) et Vita (3D Master). The ratio between the number of matching samples and the total amount of samples from each group was calculated and converted to a score between 0 and 10.Results: Better scores were obtained for value and chroma with the 3D Master shade guide than with the Chromascop shade guide (p < 0.001). The opposite result was obtained for the hue (p < 0.05). Globally, better results were obtained for the value and chroma, the hue being the most difficult item to evaluate. A satisfying \"color perception\" was observed in 69% of the cases.Conclusion: The results of this study argue in favor of a specific training for tooth shade determination in Odontology.","PeriodicalId":76278,"journal":{"name":"Odonto-stomatologie tropicale = Tropical dental journal","volume":"37 147","pages":"27-33"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"33184338","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}

Think to succeed a total removable prosthesis from a failed primary dental impression is a challenge for the practitioner and seems utopia. For this, you wish through our work give the importance to the choice of the mass-produced impression tray that is paramount for the success of the primary dental impression. This study examines a sample of 160 plaster primary models (80 maxillary and 80 mandibular) from primary dental impression carried out with mass-produced impression trays whether or not modified for new total edentulous patients having consulted at the University Dental centre in Casablanca for a prosthetic rehabilitation by total prosthesis. Thirty-six women and 44 men have been selected. The study showed that men have maxillary and mandibular arches longer and wider than those of women, and that the average value for several parameters measured is close to the measurements of the maxilla trays U3 and mandibular L3; Where the need for acquisition of large size dental impression tray, in accordance with the dimensions of our population in order to meet our expectations, namely: to respect the integrity of the support surfaces, to meet the mechanical qualities of the prosthesis, to restore the aesthetics and function by minimizing the grievances of the toothless total subject.","PeriodicalId":76278,"journal":{"name":"Odonto-stomatologie tropicale = Tropical dental journal","volume":"37 147","pages":"15-26"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"33184337","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}
