Background: glass ionomer is one of the most frequently used restorative materials for primary teeth restoration. It has been in use for more than 30 years. Their restoration usefulness is preferential compared to other restorations due to their fluoride release and recharge, chemical adhesion to the str...
RESUMEN Introducción: Durante la gestación, algunos cambios fisiológicos en la mujer propician un incremento de la placa dental y de la microbiota cariogénica. Esta condición unida a una modificación de la dieta y a una inadecuada higiene bucal condicionarían desfavorablemente la salud oral tanto...
RESUMEN: El objetivo del presente trabajo fue determinar el efecto de una pasta dental comercial conteniendo xilitol sobre el recuento de Streptococcus mutans en saliva de gestantes. El presente fue un ensayo clínico, a doble ciego, que se realizó en el Centro de Salud "José Olaya" (Chiclayo Perú), e...
RESUMEN Introducción: Los dentífricos con ingredientes activos previenen la caries dental en niños. Objetivo: Determinar la actividad antibacteriana in vitro de tres dentífricos sin flúor y dos soluciones control frente a cepas estándares de Streptococccus mutans. Métodos: Se realizó un est...
ABSTRACT Objective: The objective of this study was to formulate experimental orthodontic bracket adhesives and test their mechanical properties, fluoride release and antibacterial activity. Methods: Four experimental antibacterial orthodontic bracket adhesives were prepared with different composition...
The aim of the present study was to validate and establish a cut off point and the predictive value of an adhesion test (AA-MSMG), as a microbiological method for evaluating cariogenic risk. The study is based on a variant (20% sucrose) of a selective medium descripted by Gold et al. (MSMG). This method ...
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: High prevalence of dental caries in ulcerative colitis (UC) has been attributed to diet and changes in salivary environment. OBJECTIVE: We aimed to characterize the prevalence of dental caries, salivary flow rates, salivary buffering capacity and cariogenic bacteria counts of Mut...

Background: RNA isolation from bacteria within dentine caries lesions could be difficult due to reduced amount of collectable biomass and high mRNA instability. Attempting to overcome this challenge we describe one protocol developed to extract and purify total RNA from dentine lesions. Objective: custom...
Introdução: os benefícios do laser infravermelho no tratamento da mucosite oral e no controle da dor na disfunção da articulação temporomandibular são bem reconhecidos e já aplicados clinicamente. Porém, o efeito dessa terapia em bactérias da cavidade oral ainda é incerto. Objetivo: analisar ...
RESUMO
A formação de biofilmes e produção de hifas por Candida albicans são importantes
fatores de virulência, principalmente, para a aderência à mucosa e invasão tecidual. A
busca por metabólitos secundários produzidos por S. mutans é de suma importância,
pois poderá fornecer novas estrat...
