Effect of waterpipe smoking on peri ‐implant health: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
AbstractThe aim of the present review was to evaluate the effect of waterpipe smoking (WS) on clinical peri ‐implant inflammatory parameters compared to non‐smokers (NS) with dental implants. Literature searches were performed using bibliographic databases up to May 2018. Primary outcomes included peri‐implant bone loss (PIBL), while secondary outcomes were probing depth (PD), plaque index, and blee ding on probing. Relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for each PIBL and PD were estimated by a random‐effect model. Four retrospective case‐control studies were included in the qualitative and quantita...

Peri ‐implantitis risk factors: A prospective evaluation
ConclusionThe observed results applied to the evaluation model are an effective diagnostic tool in assessing the risk of peri ‐implantitis. The tool takes into account parameters, which have not been taken into account until now. The information is automatically processed and allows early management of peri‐implantitis.

Non ‐oral, aerobic, Gram‐negative bacilli in the oral cavity of Thai HIV‐positive patients on Highly‐active anti‐retrovirus therapy medication
AbstractIn the present study, we identified and evaluated the antibiotic susceptibility of 96 independent, aerobic, Gram ‐negative bacillus isolates from 255 Thai HIV‐positive adults who were on Highly‐active anti‐retrovirus therapy (HAART) medication. Another 46 isolates from HIV non‐HAART individuals, vertically transmitted HIV‐positive individuals, and non‐HIV controls were included for comparison. A total of 103 strains were tested for antibiotic susceptibility using disc diffusion for screening and E‐test for minimal inhibitory concentration determination, with special attention on extended‐spectrum ...

Impact of a non ‐fluoridated microcrystalline hydroxyapatite dentifrice on enamel caries progression in highly caries‐susceptible orthodontic patients: A randomized, controlled 6‐month trial
ConclusionIn highly caries ‐active patients, the impact of the regular use of a microcrystalline HAP dentifrice on caries progression is not significantly different from the use of a 1400 ppm fluoride toothpaste (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02705456).

Comparison of cone ‐beam computed tomography and panoramic imaging in assessing the relationship between posterior maxillary tooth roots and the maxillary sinus: A systematic review
The objective of the present systematic review was to analyze research articles that compare the accuracy of panoramic imaging to cone ‐beam computed tomography (CBCT) in assessing the relationship between posterior maxillary tooth roots and the maxillary sinus. A comprehensive literature search was conducted using various databases. Initial searching yielded 64 results, and after exclusion, five full‐text articles were eligibl e. All were cohort studies, and the CBCT and panoramic images were either obtained from a pre‐existing database or patients were recruited specifically for the study. Analysis showed that a pa...

Unerupted permanent incisors and associated dental anomalies
ConclusionsUnerupted permanent incisors were associated with supernumerary teeth and ectopic eruption of permanent canines. Specifically, a higher proportion of unerupted maxillary central incisors was associated with the presence of supernumerary teeth, whereas a higher percentage of unerupted maxillary lateral incisors was associated with the ectopic eruption of permanent canines.

Effectiveness of casein phosphopeptide ‐amorphous calcium phosphate‐containing products in the prevention and treatment of white spot lesions in orthodontic patients: A systematic review
AbstractThe purpose of the present systematic review was to evaluate the effectiveness of casein phosphopeptide ‐amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP‐ACP)‐containing products in the prevention and treatment of active white spot lesions (WSL) in orthodontic patients. Searched the Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane, Virtual Health Language, ClinicalTrials, and Open Gray databases without limitations on the year or language of publication. We included controlled clinical trials with patients with fixed orthodontic appliances under the use of CPP‐ACP‐containing products compared to control, placebo, or other interv...

Oral and uro ‐vaginal intra‐amniotic infection in women with preterm delivery: A case‐control study
ConclusionThe presence ofP.  gingivalis in the placenta was not associated with perinatal complications. Detecting microorganisms in the placenta by nested PCR is not relevant, as it has a poor association with clinical variables that establish the diagnosis of chorioamnionitis. However, periodontitis was associated with the clinical signs of intra ‐amniotic infection and PTD. (Source: Journal of Investigative and Clinical Dentistry)
