Abstract:

In order to maintain an adequate oral and dental health, oral hygiene is an important factor, and its implementation by appropriate methods and techniques it is imperative for the removal of the bacterial plaque. The removing of the bacterial plaque it is done by mechanical methods, the use of toothpaste and toothbrush must be supplemented by the use of dental floss. In this study, we measure the effectiveness of the use of the toothbrush and the auxiliary means for the toothbrush, in particular we analyzed the dental floss. Thus, the study participants were divided into several groups. Initia

Abstract:

Effective oral care is important for maintaining a high quality of life. Therefore, plaque control can prevent the development and recurrence of periodontitis. Brushing with a toothbrush and toothpaste is a common way to remove plaque; however, excessive brushing or brushing with abrasive toothpaste can cause wear and tear on the dental crown. Hence, we aimed to quantitatively compare the plaque-removal efficiency and tooth wear of toothbrushes using the bioelectric effect (BE) with those of electric–mechanical toothbrushes. To generate the BE signal, an electronic circuit was developed and em

Abstract:

Periodontitis is caused by an inappropriate activation of the host response to plaque biofilm. The accumulation of plaque biofilm leads to dysbiosis, that is, an imbalance in microbial community composition and function, which drives tissue destruction. Historical plaque hypotheses provide a foundational understanding of the role of plaque in the pathogenesis of periodontitis {AQ – edit OK?}. More contemporary theories emphasize how dysbiosis can trigger an exaggerated host response, leading to tissue destruction and periodontitis. As periodontitis is a biofilm-related disease, clinicians shou

Background: The best and the most reliable methods to manage the dental plaque are still mechanical procedures. It has been traditionally recommended that a firm fruit such as an apple be eaten to minimize caries and control plaque at the end of a meal. However, several studies have reported contradictory findings about the microbial plaque function of the apples. Some studies, for instance, have found that apples contain sugar and, therefore, can cause plaque growth; some other researches, on the other hand, have shown that they have the potential to decrease plaque due to their mechanical pl

Novel strategies to combat dental biofilms aim at reducing biofilm stability with the ultimate goal of facilitating mechanical cleaning. To test the stability of dental biofilms, they need to be subjected to a defined mechanical stress.

Abstract Proper oral hygiene is a basis for preventing dental caries and periodontal diseases. The most popular method of mechanical plaque removal is brushing teeth using manual and powered toothbrushes. The review of literature shows that removal of dental calculus using the powered toothbrushes is more effective, what is supported by greater reduction of plaque and symptoms characteristic for soft tissue inflammation. It needs to be underlined that the effectiveness of tooth brushing, regardless of the kind of toothbrush, to a great extent depends on the frequency and technique of brushing,

Abstract:

Background: Periodontal health is closely related to systemic health and crucial for healthy aging. Periodontal disease is prevalent among older adults due to declined systemic conditions, medication side effects, and reduced dexterity and cognition. Effective preventive care is essential to maintain periodontal health and promote oral and general health. Objective: The aim of this narrative review is to examine preventive periodontal care tailored for older individuals, with a focus on strategies to reduce the incidence of periodontal disease, maintain periodontal health, and improve the over

Abstract:

Aim: The present clinical study aimed to investigate the clinical efficacy of 5 types of mouthwash based on different active substances. Materials and methods: The study included 180 patients divided into 6 groups of 30 patients, each group rinsing with one of the following types of mouthwash based on: essential oils, combination of essential oils and 0.12% chlorhexidine, hydrogen peroxide (0.8%), prebiotic, 0.2% chlorhexidine, and placebo. All participants underwent professional mechanical plaque removal after which they were instructed to rinse with 15 ml mouthwash 2 times a day for 21 days.

Abstract:

The purpose of this randomized controlled study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy of a novel oral spray containing resveratrol (RV) in controlling bacterial biofilm and gingival inflammation in early childhood. RV, a natural polyphenol, known for its anti-inflammatory and anti-infective activities, was included in a nanovector of 2-hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrins (HPβCD) to improve its bioavailability. A total of 64 children between two and five years of age with plaque-induced gingivitis were randomly included in two equal groups. Both groups were enrolled in a mechanical plaque control

Abstract:

Air-polishing with low abrasiveness powders is fast arising as a valid and mini-invasive instrument for the management of biofilm colonizing dental implants. In general, the reported advantage is the efficient removal of plaque with respect to the titanium integrity. In the present study, we evaluated the in situ plaque removal and the preventive efficacy in forestalling further infection of an innovative erythritol/chlorhexidine air-polishing powder and compared it with sodium bicarbonate. Accordingly, two peri-implantitis-linked biofilm formers, strains Staphylococcus aureus and Aggregatibac

Introduction: This study aims to compare clinical efficacy of red injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) and hyaluronic acid (HA) as adjuncts to professional mechanical plaque removal (PMPR) in non-surgical management of stage III periodontitis. Methods: 75 patients were split into groups: group one (G1) received HA, group two (G2) received red i-PRF, and group three (G3), received only PMPR. Periodontal evaluation was done at baseline, 4th, 8th, and 12th weeks following treatment. Results: The plaque index, gingival index, and bleeding on probing were significantly improved in all groups. Mo

Background: Siwak or miswak is obtained from the branches and stems of the Salvadora persica plant that grows in the Middle Eastern plains and commonly used as a toothbrush to clean teeth and gingival structures. Miswak contains natural antibacterial acids (astringents, abrasives and detergents) which function to kill bacteria, prevent infection and stop bleeding in the gum. Chemical substances such as Chloride, Pottasium, Sodium Bicarbonate, Fluoride, Silica, Sulfur, Vitamin C, Trimethylamine, Salvadorine, and Tannins which function to clean teeth, whiten and nourish teeth and gingiva.

Abstract:

The prevalence of periodontal diseases is extremely high, and in recent decades its significant increase in young people has been noted, and a more aggressive course of periodontal diseases has been identified. The development and progression of periodontal disease and caries in younger individuals exhibit distinctive peculiarities. Today, special attention is paid to the condition of microbiocenosis in the oral cavity, which can be both a consequence of various diseases and a contributing factor in the exacerbation and aggravation of dental diseases such as caries, gingivitis, periodontitis,
