Tongue function and swallowing in individuals with temporomandibular disorders

J. appl. oral sci; 28 (), 2020
Abstract The tongue participates in the oral phase of swallowing by pushing the food bolus toward the oropharynx. This relationship between tongue function and swallowing is little addressed addressed in individuals with temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD). Objective: To analyze the association of funct...

Salivary calcium and phosphate stability in different time and temperature storage

Braz. j. pharm. sci; 52 (4), 2016
ABSTRACT The non-invasive collection and inexpensive nature of saliva has made it an attractive sample for use for diagnosis and research on several diseases. Storage circumstances may affect salivary component concentrations. The objective was to analyze calcium and phosphate stability in saliva samples...

Effect of different salivary exposure times on the rehardening of acid-softened enamel

Braz. oral res. (Online); 30 (1), 2016
Abstract This in situ study assessed the effect of different times of salivary exposure on the rehardening of acid-softened enamel. Bovine enamel blocks were subjected in vitro to a short-term acidic exposure by immersion in 0.05 M (pH 2.5) citric acid for 30 s, resulting in surface softening. Then, 40 s...

Patients with dental calculus have increased saliva and gingival crevicular fluid fetuin-A levels but no association with fetuin-A polymorphisms

Braz. oral res. (Online); 30 (1), 2016
ABSTRACT: Fetuin-A is a potent inhibitor of calcium-phosphate precipitation and of the calcification process, therefore it can also be related with dental calculus. Thus, we aimed to investigate a possible relationship between fetuin-A gene polymorphism and the presence of dental calculus. A possible rel...

Fisiologia comparada do fluido oral e suas principais aplicações clínicas

O fluido oral é um líquido incolor e viscoso que resulta da combinação entre a saliva e os transudatos da cavidade oral, transudato da mucosa oral e fluido crevicular gengival. A saliva é secretada pelas glândulas salivares, enquanto o transudatos da cavidade oral tem origem nos capilares da mucosa...

Physicochemical salivary properties, Lactobacillus, Mutans Streptococci counts and early childhood caries in preschool children of Colombia

Acta odontol. latinoam; 23 (3), 2010
Dental caries is a multifactorial disease, in which saliva has an important role. Saliva properties affect the growth of cariogenic microorganisms, so variations below threshold levels are considered risk factors for the development of dental caries. Salivary tests and microbiological counts of cariogeni...
