HIV infection in children: a challenge to dental practice. 儿童艾滋病毒感染:对牙科实践的挑战。

Because of diagnostic difficulties of HIV infection in children, among other reasons, all children are suspects. As a result of new developments in the treatment of this condition, more people with HIV infection/AIDS will survive and require dental treatment on a long-term basis. Dental practitioners who treat children and adolescents are faced with increasing challenge of providing optimum oral health care for all youths regardless of their being infected with HIV or not. The paper presents the diversified roles dentists in African countries have to play owing to prevailing peculiar circumstances in their communities. They should not only be oral diagnosticians and oral health care providers, but also health educators and promoters, researchers, counsellors, and social workers. All oral health personnel particularly the dentist, must be well-learned to meet these demands. By discharging these duties effectively, the spread of HIV infection will be curbed, and both the oral health and the entire well-being of the child population will be enhanced.</p>","PeriodicalId":76983,"journal":{"name":"African dental journal : official publication of the Federation of African Dental Associations = Journal dentaire africain","volume":"7 ","pages":"11-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20510749","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 aim of the study was to investigate the variation in different occlusal and space characteristics among children and adolescents in different age group. A total of 698 children and adolescents aged 6-18 years were examined clinically. The subjects were categorized into three age groups, 6-9 years with early mixed dentition, 10-14 years with late mixed dentition and 15-18 years with permanent dentition. The examiners were calibrated before the survey and the agreement was satisfactory. Anteroposterior relationships of the dental arches were measured according to Angle's classification. Other occlusal and space variables included overjet, overbite, openbite, crossbite, crowding, spacing, and separate determination of diastema mediale. Most of the subjects in different age groups, 93-96%, had Angle's Class I molar occlusion. Large overjet (> 5 mm) occurred in 3-5% of the subjects. Deep bite (> 5 mm) was observed in about 2% of the children in all age groups. Anterior open bite was the most prevalent occlusal anomaly in all age groups, noted in 9-13% of the subjects. Transversal occlusal anomalies were rare. More than 33% of the subjects had spacing while less than 10% had crowding of the dentition.
