    Tuesday – June 18, 2013 8:30 am – 11:30 am Poster Abstracts – Tuesday, June 18, 2013 #1 ORAL LESIONS AS THE PRESENTING MANIFESTATION OF CROHN'S DISEASE V Woo, E Herschaft, J Wang U of Nevada, Las Vegas Crohn’s disease (CD) is an immune-mediated disorder of the gastrointestinal tract which together with ulcerative colitis, comprise the two major types of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The underlying etiology has been attributed to defects in mucosal immunity and the intestinal epithelial barrier in a genetically susceptible host, resulting in an inappropriate inflammatory response to intestinal microbes. The lesions of CD can affect any region of the alimentary tract as well as extraintestinal sites such as the skin, joints and eyes. The most common presenting symptoms are periumbilical pain and diarrhea associated with fevers, malaise and anemia. Oral involvement has been termed oral CD and may manifest as lip swelling, cobblestoned mucosa, mucogingivitis and linear ulcerations and fissures. Oral lesions may precede gastrointestinal involvement and can serve as early markers of CD. We describe a 6-year-old male who presented for evaluation of multifocal gingival erythema and swellings. His medical history was unremarkable for gastrointestinal disorders or distress. Histopathologic examination showed multiple well-formed granulomas that were negative for special stains and foreign body material. A diagnosis of granulomatous gingivitis was rendered. The patient was advised to seek consultation with a pediatric gastroenterologist and following colonoscopy, was diagnosed with early stage CD. Timely recognition of the oral manifestations of CD is critical because only a minority of patients will continue to exhibit CD-specific oral lesions at follow-up.

  • Abfraction Myth Or Reality

(Feb. 2014), PP 70-73 www.iosrjournals.org Abfraction Myth or Reality Dr Pragya Tripathi, Dr Deepak Chopra, Dr Sukhchain Bagga Sr Lecturer Dept of Periodontics, Inderprastha Dental College, Sahibabad, Ghaziabad (UP) India. Reader Dept of Periodontics, Inderprastha Dental College, Sahibabad, Ghaziabad (UP) India. Reader Dept of Periodontics, Inderprastha Dental College, Sahibabad, Ghaziabad (UP) India. Abstract: Abfraction is the loss of tooth structure at the cervical region from heavy occlusal forces. It is described as one of the causes of lesions found along the cervical margins of teeth. This article critically reviews the literature in favour and against the theory of abfraction. From the literature there is little direct evidence supporting the theory of abfraction, apart from laboratory studies, to indicate that abfraction exists other than as a hypothetical component of cervical wear. I. Introduction Abfraction is the micro structural loss of tooth substance in areas of stress concentration. This occurs most commonly in the cervical region of teeth, where flexure may lead to a breaking away of the thin layer of enamel rods, as well as micro fracture of cementum and dentin1. Since the publication of one of the text books for dentistry by anatomist and physiologist John Hunter in 1778, the definitions and classifications of the terms “attrition”, “abrasion” and “erosion” have been in a state of confusion. Furthermore, the more recent introduction of the terms “abfraction” to designate stress induced non carious lesions have not resolved this dilemma fully2.

  • A Guide to the Clinical Management of Attrition
    Tooth Wear Themed Issue PRACTICE A guide to the clinical management of attrition J. S. Rees*1 and S. Somi2 Key points Discusses aetiology of attrition. Discusses signs and symptoms of attrition. Discusses clinical management of attrition including adhesive and conventional techniques. Attrition is an enigmatic condition often found in older individuals and often as a result of bruxism which can take place as a result of either day bruxism, night bruxism or both. Various studies and systemic reviews clearly shown that tooth wear is an age-related phenomena and the last Adult Dental Health Survey showed that 15% of participants showed moderate wear and 3% severe wear with 80% of patients over 50 years of age showing signs of wear. This review examines current theories around the aetiological factors contributing to attrition together with the clinical management of attrition focusing on minimal intervention where possible. Introduction Attrition is formally defined as the loss of tooth substance caused by tooth-to-tooth contact so although it is predominantly seen occlusally, attrition can also occur interproximally as lateral movement of the teeth produces broader 1 interproximal contacts over time (Fig. 1). Fig. 1 Examples of attrition Typically, this type of wear is seen as marked wear facets with complimentary wear facets being seen in the upper and lower jaws. In very general a canine guided occlusion to a group function Symptoms terms, patients often tend to brux in an anterior/ type occlusion, once wear of the canines allows • Tooth grinding at night posterior direction or in a lateral direction.

  • Infectious Complications of Dental and Periodontal Diseases in the Elderly Population
    INVITED ARTICLE AGING AND INFECTIOUS DISEASES Thomas T. Yoshikawa, Section Editor Infectious Complications of Dental and Periodontal Diseases in the Elderly Population Kenneth Shay Geriatrics and Extended Care Service Line, Veterans Integrated Services Network 11, Geriatric Research Education and Clinical Center and Dental Service, Ann Arbor Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/cid/article/34/9/1215/463157 by guest on 02 October 2021 Veterans Affairs Healthcare System, and University of Michigan School of Dentistry, Ann Arbor Retention of teeth into advanced age makes caries and periodontitis lifelong concerns. Dental caries occurs when acidic metabolites of oral streptococci dissolve enamel and dentin. Dissolution progresses to cavitation and, if untreated, to bacterial invasion of dental pulp, whereby oral bacteria access the bloodstream. Oral organisms have been linked to infections of the endocardium, meninges, mediastinum, vertebrae, hepatobiliary system, and prosthetic joints. Periodontitis is a pathogen- specific, lytic inflammatory reaction to dental plaque that degrades the tooth attachment. Periodontal disease is more severe and less readily controlled in people with diabetes; impaired glycemic control may exacerbate host response. Aspiration of oropharyngeal (including periodontal) pathogens is the dominant cause of nursing home–acquired pneumonia; factors reflecting poor oral health strongly correlate with increased risk of developing aspiration pneumonia. Bloodborne peri- odontopathic organisms may play a role in atherosclerosis. Daily oral hygiene practice and receipt of regular dental care are cost-effective means for minimizing morbidity of oral infections and their nonoral sequelae. More than 300 individual cultivable species of microbes have growing importance in the elderly population. In 1957, nearly been identified in the human mouth [1], with an estimated 1014 70% of the US population aged 175 years had no natural teeth.

  • Histomorphology of Attrition in Temporary Teeth
    Histomorphology of attrition in temporary teeth Lezcano, Melisa R.*; Solis Arce, Elena P**.; Gili, Maria A.***; Zamudio Maria E.**** Abstract A research project was conducted at the School of Dentistry of the National University of the Northeast, Corrientes, Argentina. The histologic features of the enamel and den- tin of temporary teeth under the physiological process of attrition were studied. For this study 25 temporary teeth were obtained from patients attending the Pediatric Dentistry Department for dental care. Samples were categorized and classified according to a modi- fied version of Gerasimov’s tooth wear scale. The teeth were processed using the technical wear approach for observation through a microscope. It was determined that 48% of cases showed grade I wear, 36% grade II wear, and 16% grade III wear. In cases where only the dentin was affected, the section of the enamel prisms was observed. When both the enamel and the dentin were affected, reaching grade II and grade III wear levels, cases of both scle- rotic dentin and dead tracts were observed.

Purpose was the determination of the role of the connective tissues dysplastic disorders for remodeling processes of the anterior chest wall in children with PE in post- operative periods. Investigation performed on 40 children, who underwent operative treatment by the D. Nuss procedure in Clinic of SRITO RUz, with PE. Genetic assessment was carried out by the T. Milkovska-Dmitrova and A. Karakeshev classification (1985). Good results were obtained in 35 cases in the nearest postoperative periods, 5 cases were with the severe pain and in long-term periods was occurred the PC deformity in 2 cases, secondary atypical deformation in 1, the relapse of PE till I degree in 1 and in 1 case was saved the neuralgic pain. The connective tissues dysplasia is a congenital character genesis, characterized by metabolic disorders in the stroma tissues and several enzymopathy. The osseo-cartilaginous structural system growth processes were not behavioral in the necessary age norm of locomotors apparatus and with the delaying of ossification processes also in the adolescent's age and the sterno-costal complex became most pliable. These changes complicated the correction method of PE, extended the period of immobilization. It is hard to determine the outcome operative results of the patients with severe degrees of conjunctive tissues dysplasia.
