B 96689336 - eISSN: 1989-5488 eMail: [email protected] Abstract Chronic renal disease (CRD) is the renal disease that manifests oral consequences most frequently, and it is defi- ned as a progressive and irreversible decline in renal function associated with a reduced glomerular filtration rate (GFR). The most frequent causes of CRD are diabetes mellitus, arterial hypertension and glomerulonephritis. CRD is classified in 5 stages – from kidney damage with normal or increased GFR to renal failure. In order to quantify the CRD, renal function is measured using the GFR, which is estimated using creatinine clea- rance (CC). This CC is used for dose adjustment of drugs. In dental practice, the function of the kidneys can be measured indirectly through plasmatic creatinine (Cr), that can be related to the CC using several formulas. The treatment of CRD includes dietary changes, correction of systemic complications, and dialysis or the receipt of a renal graft in severe cases.

  • General Anesthesia in Dentistry R
    Review Article General anesthesia in dentistry R. Balaji1, M. Dhanraj2*, Arunasree Vadaguru Mallikarjuna2 ABSTRACT Dentistry, in its surgical and restorative aspect, is in majority based on office practice. Limited dentists work routinely in operation theaters. Majority of the dental procedures can be performed under local anesthesia which is inherently safe. Most dentists are skilled in techniques of local anesthetics and nerve blocks. General anesthesia should not be used as a method of anxiety control but for pain control. All general anesthetics are associated with some risk, and modern dentistry is based on the principle that all potentially painful treatment should be performed under local anesthesia, if at all possible. General anesthesia is strictly limited to those patients and clinical situations in which local anesthesia (with or without sedation) is not an option such as children or individuals with learning difficulties. This review elucidates the facts and importance of general anesthesia in dentistry. KEY WORDS: Anesthesia, Complication, Extraction, Sedation INTRODUCTION would otherwise be technically unfeasible. Three broad categories of anesthesia exist: Pain has always been linked to dentistry, representing a • General anesthesia suppresses central nervous persistent challenge to the employment of preventive, system activity and results in unconsciousness and restorative, and surgical dental practice.[1,2] It is total lack of sensation. accepted that various procedures in the dental clinic • Sedation suppresses the central nervous system cause pain such as deep dental fillings, root canal to a lesser degree, inhibiting both anxiety and therapy, tooth extraction and tooth preparation.

Abstract: Oral bacteria under certain circumstances can enter the systemic circulation and can lead to adverse systemic effects. Fusobacteria species are numerically dominant species in dental plaque biofilms and are also associated with negative systemic outcomes. In the present case report, full mouth disinfection (FMD) was performed in a systemically healthy chronic periodontitis patient and the incidence of fusobateria species bacteremia in peripheral blood was evaluated before, during and after FMD. The results showed a significant increase in fusobacterium sp. bacteremia post FMD and the levels remained higher even after 30 minutes. In the light of the results it can be proposed that single visit FMD may result in transient bacteraemia. Keywords: Chronic Periodontitis, Non surgical periodontal therapy, Fusobacterium species, Full mouth disinfection Therapy I. Introduction After scaling and root planing (SRP), bacteremia has been analyzed predominately in aerobic and gram-positive bacteria. Fusobaterium is a potential periopathogen which upon migration to extra-oral sites may provide a significant and persistent gram negative challenge to the host and may enhance the risk of adverse cardiovascular and pregnancy complications [1].To the authors knowledge this is a seminal case report which gauges the occurrence and magnitude of fusobactrium sp.

  • Parameters of Care for the Specialty of Prosthodontics (2020)
    SUPPLEMENT ARTICLE Parameters of Care for the Specialty of Prosthodontics doi: 10.1111/jopr.13176 PREAMBLE—Third Edition THE PARAMETERS OF CARE continue to stand the test of time and reflect the clinical practice of prosthodontics at the specialty level. The specialty is defined by these parameters, the definition approved by the American Dental Association Commission on Dental Education and Licensure (2001), the American Board of Prosthodontics Certifying Examination process and its popula- tion of diplomates, and the ADA Commission on Dental Accreditation (CODA) Standards for Advanced Education Programs in Prosthodontics. The consistency in these four defining documents represents an active philosophy of patient care, learning, and certification that represents prosthodontics. Changes that have occurred in prosthodontic practice since 2005 required an update to the Parameters of Care for the Specialty of Prosthodontics. Advances in digital technologies have led to new methods in all aspects of care. Advances in the application of dental materials to replace missing teeth and supporting tissues require broadening the scope of care regarding the materials selected for patient treatment needs. Merging traditional prosthodontics with innovation means that new materials, new technology, and new approaches must be integrated within the scope of prosthodontic care, including surgical aspects, especially regarding dental implants. This growth occurred while emphasis continued on interdisciplinary referral, collaboration, and care. The Third Edition of the Parameters of Care for the Specialty of Prosthodontics is another defining moment for prosthodontics and its contributions to clinical practice. An additional seven prosthodontic parameters have been added to reflect the changes in clinical practice and fully support the changes in accreditation standards.
