Effects of palatal augmentation prosthesis in oropharyngeal dysphagia in Chilean patients with tongue cancer: Cases report
ABSTRACT: Therapy of malignant neoplasms of the tongue or oropharynx may cause dysphagia. Dysphagia in patients has negative significant social and psychological consequences. The six cases reports describe the effect of palatal augmentation prosthesis (PAP) on the management of dysphagia in patients with oral-pharyngeal cancer and as consequence of its treatment. The study also assesses PAP ’ s effects on the quality of life of such patients. (Source: Revista clinica de periodoncia, implantologia y rehabilitacion oral)

Salivary characteristics and systemic status of subjects with xerostomia
The objective of this study was to compare saliva, pH and protein concentration and systemic status among xerostomic subjects with and without hyposialia. Were measured PH and protein concentration and were recorded systemic antecedents and drug use in 27 xerostomic individuals, who were divided into hyposalic and nonhyposalic individuals. The mentioned variables were compared using non-parametric Mann-Whitney test and Chi-Square test. Statistically significant differences were accepted with alpha error equal to or less than 0.05%. Xerostomic subjects with hyposialia presented higher prevalence of Rheumatoid Arthritis and ...
