“…The group from 26 to 39 yr had 67% individuals with shallow pockets and 21% with deep pockets. This is also in accordance with other studies (3,(5)(6)(7)(8). The officers showed better CPITN scores than the age-matched other-rank soldiers also.…”

“…Only 2% of the panelists exhibited score 3 (shallow pockets, according to WHO terminology), whereas the rest exhibited scores of 2 (97%) and 1 (1%) ( Table 2). This value is comparable to those reported from Nigeria, Somalia, Korea, and Israel but better than those from Thailand and Tanzania (5). The number of shallow and deep pockets increased rapidly with age.…”

Gaare D, Joelimar FA, Oaderaa F vd, Rolla G: A cross-sectional study of DMFT and CPITN in a group of Indonesian soldiers. Scand J Dent Res 1989; 97: 2CM.Abstract -A cross-sectional clinical study showed that the prevalence of caries among Indonesian soldiers was low, compared with that found in corresponding Western popuiadons. Also, the progression of caries was very' slow, and caries was limited almost exclusively to tbe occlusal surfaces of the teeth. Among officers, the prevalence of caries was lower than it was among other ranks of tbe same age. The low general prevalence of caries among Indonesian soldiers may be related to diet. Rice was the major source of carbohydrate for the soldiers, and their sucrose consumption was 10 kg per person per year. Their drinking water contained a low concentration of fluoride (0.1 ppm). In spite of massive accumulations of calculus, the periodontal health of young soldiers (< 26 yr) was also good. Among those in higher age groups, however, periodontal healtb had deteriorated, but even in a group aged 40-46 yr, no teeth had been lost as a result of periodontal disease. Among officers, periodontal health was better than it was amongst other ranks of corresponding age. The oiBcers bad been accustomed to brushing their teeth regularly, whereas the other ranks had not. It thus appears that tootbbrushing may help to preser\'e periodontal health, even when large amounts of calculus are present on the teeth and there is no opportunity for it to be removed regularly by a dentist.

The periodontal status of 1688 inhabitants of eastern Germany (former GDR) was investigated between July 1991 and March 1992, using the CPITN. The results show that only 1.4% of those examined have a healthy periodontal apparatus, whereas 40.1% had some signs of severe periodontitis (CPITN 4). This implies a very high therapy requirement in all age-groups, with 93.1% of 15- to 19-year-olds in need of peridontal treatment (CPITN 1 + 2 + 3 + 4). A comparison between educational qualifications and frequency of brushing or routine dental checks reveals a better level of prophylaxis in the more educated classes. As expected, the CPITN code with good oral hygiene and regular dental checks was significantly lower than with poor oral hygiene and infrequent dental checks. The high prevalence of periodontal disease lends urgency to the development of an extensive prevention concept introduced in childhood.

“…Gingivitis is closely associated with dental plaque on the teeth and gingival tissues 113 and is an important contributor to mucosal toxicity seen after HCT. 114 One cubic millimeter (mm 3 ) of dental plaque contains about 100 million bacteria that serve as a persistent reservoir for potential bacteremia.…”

Bacterial bloodstream infections (BSI) cause significant transplant-related morbidity and mortality following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT). This manuscript reviews the risk factors for and the bacterial pathogens causing BSIs in allo-HCT recipients in the contemporary transplant period. In addition, it offers insight into emerging resistant pathogens and reviews clinical management considerations to treat and strategies to prevent BSIs in allo-HCT patients.
