Dental fear in children may be an important issue that needs attention. Therefore, the aim was to investigate the role of dental fear in predicting untreated dental caries in schoolchildren. This analytical cross-sectional study included children aged 8–10 years residing in Saudi Arabia. Dental status via oral examinations was surveyed with the WHO standardized chart and the Children Fear Survey Schedule—Dental Subscale was used to score dental fear. Descriptive, binary, and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to report the findings at 5% statistical significance. Overall, there were 798 schoolchildren with an average fear score of 36. Nearly 70.4% reported fear of someone examining their mouth. About 76.9% had at least one carious tooth in their oral cavity. -
BASIC Level 1 Practitioner Certification
BASIC Level 1 Practitioner Certification Chapter 5 – Place the Prosthesis Notes: Because dental implants are now an important and distinct part of prosthodontic dentistry, general dentists must be well versed in all aspects of the treatment option. The appropriate placements of the single tooth implant in acceptable bone for healthy patients is not an exception to this knowledge of all aspects. Who is better trained (except the prosthodontist) and experienced to attend to the prosthetic crown (bridge) and abutment then the generalist? Oral surgeons and periodontists don’t place the final prosthetic for correct function and esthetics. What are the major actions of this activity?

The MEGA ISQ System makes easier for dentists to decide when is the optimal time to load Loading Decision implants. It’s the ideal substitute for tactile assessment. The decision will always be complicat- ed. Several key clinical parameters and risk factors are involved, which most of them are relat- ed to the stability of the implant. Accurate measurements of implant stability therefore provide valuable diagnostic insight that helps ensure successful treatments. At placement, stability can be difficult to quantify objectively by merely relying on tactile perception. Torque measurements are difficult to repeat once the implant has started to integrate and can therefore not provide a baseline for subsequent comparisons. The invasive torque method may even damage the healing if used for monitoring osseointegration. 2.

Prevalence of Dental Fear and Anxiety Among Orthodontic Patients Visiting Nobel Medical College
Research Article Prevalence of Dental Fear and Anxiety among Orthodontic patients visiting Nobel Medical College Dr. Anand Acharya1, Dr. Bhushan Bhattrai2, Dr. Nidhi Giri3, Dr. Jitendra Singh4, Dr. Tarakant Bhagat5 1Assistant Professor, 2,3Lecturer, 4Associate Professor Department of Orthodontics, Nobel Medical College 5Associate Professor Department of Community Dentistry, BP Koirala Institute of Health Sciences Corresponding author: Dr. Anand Acharya; Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Introduction: Anxiety is the state of feeling nervous or worried that something bad is going to happen. Dental anxiety is defined as a patient’s response to stress that is associated with a dental procedure. The aim of our study is to investigate the anxiety status of dental patients visiting Orthodontic department at Nobel Medical College Teaching Hospital, Biratnagar. Materials and Method: Total 80 ongoing orthodontic patients (M =21 F=59) who completed modified Dental Anxiety Scale questionnaire were included in the study. Result: Majority of patients (65%) had moderate anxiety where as 25% had mild anxiety and around 9% had severe to extreme anxiety. Patients’ age and education level had significant association with the level of dental anxiety. Conclusion: Dental anxiety in orthodontic patients is unavoidable but needs appropriate counseling. Orthodontist’s role is crucial in bridging the gap between patients’ perception towards orthodontic treatment and the actual treatment.

Anxiety is a complex phenomenon which can become a risk factor for suppression of many functions of the body. AIM: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect dental anxiety exerts on the choice of method of treat- ment by patients wanting to have dental implants. MATERiaLS AND METHODS: The study included 174 patients that were referred to us for dental implants placement because of partial or total loss of teeth. Their dental anxiety was measured using the Dental Anxiety Scale (DAS) proposed by Norman Corah. The patients decided to have or refused to have treatment with dental implants either because they had dental anxiety or gave other reasons. RESULTS: Distribution of patients by level of anxiety was as follows: 33% were anxiety free, in 34% the dental anxiety was moderate, 25% had severe anxiety, and 8% experienced an extremely severe anxiety. Dental fear was given as a reason for refusal of treatment by 24.1% of the patients wanting to have dental implants. Of the patients wanting to have dental implants, 40.8% decided to proceed with the treatment; these patients exhibited low dental anxiety. -

Dental Corps. Abstract Between 1661 and 1921, Britain witnessed signifcant changes in the prevalence of dental caries and its treatment. This period saw the formation of the standing British Army and its changing oral health needs. This paper seeks to identify these changes in the Army and its dental needs, and place them in the context of the changing disease prevalence and dental advances of the time. The rapidly changing military and oral health landscapes of the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century bring recognition of the Army’s growing dental problems.
