Correlation Between Gingival Redness And Oral Health Related Quality Of Life In A Group Of Egyptian Children At New Giza University, Fayrouz Saber, Manal Ahmed Al Sayed, Ola Moustafa Omar

Future Dental Journal

Introduction: The concept of oral health related quality of life (OHRQoL) is of great significance in the three areas of dental health, in particular the clinical practice of dentistry, research, and education. The reported prevalence of gingivitis in various developed countries is considered high. This rate escalates with the increase in age, especially around puberty. There is evidence that gingivitis is associated with the children’s OHRQoL as there are common risk factors between gingivitis’ of adolescence and their consequent OHRQoL.

Aim: This study aims to evaluate the correlation between gingival redness as evaluated by digital photographs and oral health related …

Evaluation Of Knowledge, Attitude And Practice Of Dental Interns About Using Antibiotics In Pediatric Dentistry, Ahmad Safwat Aied, Norhan Abd El-Wahab El-Dokky, Rania Abdallah Nasr

Future Dental Journal

Introduction: Antimicrobial resistance is one of the ten threats identified by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2019, since it affects modern healthcare and the effective prevention and treatment of an ever-increasing range of infections. Recent estimates of the burden of antimicrobial resistance are very significant, with more than half a million cases of infection with selected antibiotic-resistant bacteria or new emerging resistant pathogens occurring in Europe; of note, data regarding antimicrobial resistance in low-income countries are largely unknown, increasing the overall risk of mortality, in particular in surgical procedures

Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate the …

Prevalence Of Molar Incisor Hypomineralization In A Group Of Egyptian Children, Ayah Essam Almenawi B.D.S, Norhan Abd El-Wahab El-Dokky Professor Of Pediatric Dentistry & Dental Public Health, Soad Abdelmoniem Abdelmoniem Professor Of Pediatric And Dental Public Health

Future Dental Journal

Background: Molar incisor Hypomineralization (MIH) has become a more widespread problem around the world, while its prevalence in Egypt is underestimated with no data on its correlation to Hypomineralization of Second Primary Molars (HSPM). Aim: Estimate the prevalence of MIH and HSPM in Egypt, investigate the possibility of HSPM being a predictive factor for MIH, and the probable etiological factors for MIH. Material and Methods: Three hundred and seventeen healthy children aged seven to ten years old were dentally examined for Molar Incisor Hypomineralization and Hypomineralization of Second Primary Molars and all potentially correlated etiological factors. Both MIH and HSPM …

Aim: Correlating parenting style with their children’s behavior, dental anxiety and dental caries during the first dental visit.

Methodology: A cross sectional study was conducted. Self-administered structured questionnaire ( PSDQ) contains 32 statements regarding different parent reactions to child behavior, and participants rated responses to each item using a five-point likert scale from “never” to “always” (coded 1 to 5).The target population consisted of 105 children with their parents in Faculty of Dentistry, Future University aged 3-6 years old. The highest mean score placed the parent in the proper parenting category. The child behavior was assessed using the Frankl scale …

Assessment Of Caries Prevalence And Related Risk Factors Among A Group Of Lebanese Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Case-Control Study, Ranim Bassam Kassab Pediatric Dentist, Aly Osman, Ahmad Tarabaih

International Arab Journal of Dentistry

Objectives: The study aimed to assess dental caries prevalence and its associated risk factors for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) among different age groups.

Material and Methods: Forty-five children with autism aged between 3-16 years matched to 45 healthy children were selected. Children were recruited from autistic centers/schools in Saida, South Lebanon. Each child assessed for caries prevalence and risk factors using DMFT/dmft indices and the WHO standardized questionnaire. Student’s t-test, Pearson’s correlation test, and One-Way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post hoc tests were used. Statistical significance was set at 95%.

Result: DMFT/dmft scores in non-ASD group were 0.85±1.53 …

The Effect Of Bevel On Fracture Resistance Of Gic Restorations In Primary Molars: In Vitro Study Rôle Du Biseau Dans La Résistance À La Fracture Des Restaurations Aux Ciments Verres-Ionomères Des Molaires Temporaires : Étude In Vitro, Audrey Fikani Dds, Lara Nasr Dds, Ms, Mph, Elie Khoury Dds, Msc, Phd, Associate Professor, Marianne Freiha Md, Marc Krikor Kaloustian Dds, Msc, Phd, Clinical Professor, Fériale Abi Zeid Daou, Melissa Chaaya Dds, Marlene Khoury Dds, Msc, Phd, Associate Professor

International Arab Journal of Dentistry

Background: Glass ionomer cements (GICs) are commonly used for restorations in primary molars due to their adhesive, hydrophilic, and bioactive properties. However, their low mechanical resistance may limit their use in proximal cavities. Recent advancements in GICs, such as the high viscosity GIC EQUIA Forte®, have improved their mechanical properties. The effect of a Cavo superficial bevel on the mechanical strength of GIC restorations has been previously studied.

Objectives: To investigate the effect of a Cavo superficial bevel on fracture resistance and the type of fracture (adhesive, cohesive, or catastrophic) in EQUIA Forte® GIC restorations in primary molars.

Methods: 56 …

Assessment Of Knowledge, Attitude And Practice Of Molar-Incisor Hypomineralisation Among A Group Of Egyptian Dentists (Observational Cross-Sectional Study), Mohamed Salah Shalaby, Osama Ibrahim El-Shahawy Professor Dr, Eman Alaa, Manal Ahmed Mofied El-Shiekh

Future Dental Journal

Abstract:

Introduction: Molar Incisor Hypomineralisation (MIH) is one of qualitative DED. MIH is increasing dramatically in the new generations, which is considered to be challenging for the majority of dentists. MIH was found to be prevalent in 14.2% of the world's population, with the high incidence 18% in South America and the least (10.9%) in Africa. This study was carried out to assess the knowledge, attitude, and practice of graduated Egyptian dentists' group regarding MIH condition and compare the outcome information among different dental specialists.

Antibacterial Effect Of Azadirachta Indica (Neem Extract) And Chlorhexidine As Cavity Disinfectants In Primary Teeth In A Group Of Egyptian Children (A Randomized Clinical Trial), Maha Samy Elhabbak, Norhan El-Dokky, Manal Elsheikh, Eman Alaa

Future Dental Journal

Introduction: The prevention and control of caries requires the eradication of cariogenic microorganisms that produce acids responsible for reducing the pH and starting the demineralization process. With the increasing incidence of drug resistance in the prevalent pathogens and an associated risk with chemotherapeutic agents, it is essential to find an alternative to existing drugs.

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of neem extract and 2% chlorhexidine (CHX) as cavity disinfectants in the reduction of total viable count in Atraumatic Restorative Treatment (ART) in children.

Subjects and Methods: The study included two test …
