Is Periodontitis Prevalence Declining? A Review of the Current Literature
Abstract In recent decades, a decline in caries has led to retention of more teeth in industrialised countries. However, it is unknown, if such a trend also exists for periodontitis. Thus, the aim of this article is to review the evidence for global trends in the change in the prevalence of periodontitis over the last 20 years. Because evaluations of disease trends and comparisons of those between-trend studies are complicated by several methodological aspects, we also comprehensively discuss these issues. In total, ten studies provided data on trends in periodontal diseases with varying degrees of methodological bias. All studies consistently reported declining trends of periodontal parameters. However, methodological issues partly restricted interpretability of trend studies. N…

Nitric oxide in human gingival crevicular fluid after orthodontic force application
Reducing the duration of patient treatment is a primary goal for orthodontists.1 The development of new methods to increase the rate of orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) have been sought by clinicians not only as a way to shorten treatment time, but also to reduce adverse effects such as pain, discomfort, dental caries, and periodontal disease. Additionally, shorter treatment times can minimize iatrogenic tissue damage, such as root resorption and the development of non-vital teeth.2 (Source: Archives of Oral Biology)

Mechanical weakening of devitalized teeth: three dimensional Finite Element Analysis and prediction of tooth fracture
ConclusionThe combined Finite Element Method and the Maximum Principal Stress analysis gave insight into the fracture mechanisms of teeth with two?surface composite restorations followed by root canal preparation. Removal of tooth tissue, despite its subsequent restoration with dental materials, weakened the tooth by changing the stress intensity and distribution through tooth structures. Access cavity preparation had the greatest influence on tooth strength while canal enlargement did not contribute to this process substantially.This article is protected by copyright.
