Data were analysed inductively using a thematic content and analysis approach.Main outcome measures: 18 (60%) of the 30,2009 BOH graduates completed the online graduate questionnaire with 10 providing employer information. Six employers completed the 'graduate attribute' questionnaire, and 30 (45%) of the 66 eligible host therapists, the 'student attribute' questionnaire. Clear themes emerged from the three participant groups.Results: Of the 18 graduate participants, 10 were working in dental therapy and dental hygiene, with the remaining eight working in only one area. Graduates' primary concern was with maintaining both scopes of practice. Graduates and host therapists stressed a need for students' exposure to complex cases, while employers indicated that graduates' clinical confidence had developed over time.Conclusion: Recommendations for improving BOH graduates' transition outcomes included (1) increasing students' exposure to complex clinical and placement experience; (2) improving continuing education opportunities for new graduates; and (3) promoting interaction between BOH and dental students with a view to improving (future) dentists' knowledge of BOH graduate skills and attributes.","PeriodicalId":76703,"journal":{"name":"The New Zealand dental journal","volume":"108 3","pages":"83-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"30939591","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}

The 14-item short-form Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) was used to collect data on oral-health-related quality of life (OHRQoL).Results: Just over half of the 238 survey participants (who were aged 16 to 18 years old) were male. Most brushed at least once daily. One-quarter reported hiding their smile, and just over one-fifth reported suffering from bad breath. Awareness of their current entitlement to free dental care was high, but it was lower among males. Just over one-third of participants had experienced one or more OHIP-14 impacts; that was higher among females than males, with the largest difference being apparent with the physical disability subscale, where the prevalence of impacts among females was twice that among males. The prevalence of OHIP impacts was higher among those who reported experiencing bad breath often, and significant differences were observed in all seven OHIP domains (as well as in the mean overall OHIP-14 score and in the mean number of different impacts experienced often).Conclusions: The data provide some important insghts into the oral health perceptions and concerns of young Māori.","PeriodicalId":76703,"journal":{"name":"The New Zealand dental journal","volume":"108 3","pages":"90-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"30939592","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}

Strata were defined by school decile status. Schools defined the first-stage sampling unit, and students the second stage.Setting: Invitations and consent forms were distributed to eligible participants at school for completion at home. Participants were examined at school-based clinics or in a mobile clinic. PARTICIPANTS/MATERIALS, AND METHODS: Children aged between 5 and 13 years enrolled within the Auckland Regional Dental Service. Schools were randomly selected and then all students within selected schools were invited to participate. Eligible participants completing a consent form had an additional tooth assessment that complemented their routine dental examination. A generalised gamma failure-time model was employed to estimate permanent tooth eruption ages.Main outcome measures: Visually based assessment of permanent tooth emergence.Results: Overall, 3,466 children participated. Differences in median permanent tooth emergence ages were seen among ethnic groups and sexes (P < or = 0.01). Pasifika children had earlier median eruption time than sex-matched Māori children, who (in turn) were more advanced than sex-matched European children. Median eruption age occurred earlier in girls than boys for all permanent teeth.Conclusions: Despite known demographic, geographic and ethnic differences, estimates of permanent teeth emergence timing widely used in New Zealand are based on historical overseas populations. The presented estimates provide new standards and may be more appropriate for dental therapists and dentists when assessing permanent teeth emergence in New Zealand children.","PeriodicalId":76703,"journal":{"name":"The New Zealand dental journal","volume":"108 2","pages":"55-61"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"30756200","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}

Internationally, little published literature has examined dental technicians' perspectives of CPD and CPD needs, and there is no published literature relating to the New Zealand context. Available research highlights the importance of CPD for maintaining high professional standards, ensuring patient safety, allowing dental technicians to keep abreast of current research and technological advances, fostering peer networks, and promoting job satisfaction. In 2009, an online open-ended questionnaire was developed to examine New Zealand dental and clinical dental technicians' perspectives of CPD and their perceived CPD needs. In total, 45 New Zealand registered dental technicians responded. Questionnaire responses provided rich qualitative insights into dental technicians' wide-ranging perceptions of CPD, factors that make CPD involvement more or less difficult and more or less desirable, and ways in which CPD access and relevance might be improved. This paper discusses the survey findings in the light of the existing literature on CPD and in relation to the unique New Zealand regulatory environment. It highlights the factors which respondents identified as shaping their CPD decisions, barriers to CPD engagement, perceived CPD needs, suggestions as to how the current CPD system could be improved, and areas for future research.","PeriodicalId":76703,"journal":{"name":"The New Zealand dental journal","volume":"108 2","pages":"47-54"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"30756199","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}

Mean temperature change at the four sites was recorded for a range of water flow rates in the range 10 to 90 mL min(-1), with and without air, and with and without the turbine running. The thermal resistance of the system, R, was calculated as the temperature change per watt (KW(-1)).Results: For wet cooling (water stream and air-water spray), R was 5.1 to 11.5 KW(-1), whereas for air coolant alone the range was 18.5 to 30.7 KW(-1). R for air-water spray was lower than for water stream cooling at the same flow rate.Conclusions: The thermal resistivity approach is a viable means of comparative testing of cooling efficacy in simulated dental cutting. It may provide a reliable means of testing handpiece nozzle design, thus enabling the development of more efficient cooling.","PeriodicalId":76703,"journal":{"name":"The New Zealand dental journal","volume":"108 1","pages":"25-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"30520306","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}
