Periodontal disease detection in primary and mixed dentitions

Abstract: Children presenting with a mixed dentition had worse PI values and PSR scores. It is important to perform periodontal examination in children to diagnose and prevent future periodontal disease and maintain their dentition as well as to identify any associated systemic conditions.

“…27 Although preschool children with primary dentition are less severely affected, Andrade and Rapp (2002) still reported over 80% children aged between 3 and 6 years had visible bleeding upon probing and had presented with retention factors requiring professional cleaning and treatment. 28 Our findings reflected a similar periodontal condition, in which all participants on average had over 80% of tooth surfaces covered with plaque and with inflamed gingivae at baseline. Nonetheless, both assessments of plaque and gingival inflammation were conducted with visual examination only, without the use of any instruments like a probe.…”

“…Gingivitis is not uncommon among children and adolescents, with a prevalence of over 60% among children and adolescents 27 . Although preschool children with primary dentition are less severely affected, Andrade and Rapp (2002) still reported over 80% children aged between 3 and 6 years had visible bleeding upon probing and had presented with retention factors requiring professional cleaning and treatment 28 .…”

“…However, it is important to understand the reasons for longterm maintenance of oral and periodontal tissues in adulthood. 22 According to the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, children and adolescents require periodontal condition registra tion as part of routine dental appointments. Biofilm should be evidenced, thus allowing the identification of sites that may contribute to gingivitis and/or dental car ies.…”

“…Godoy et al (16) determinaron que las características microbiológicas en la población pediátrica no se encuentran ampliamente documentadas. Por otro lado, Nobre et al (26) identificaron microorganismos que están presentes en adultos pero no en niños con periodonto sano; sin embargo, se modifican con el cambio de la dentición temporal a mixta por variaciones en el microambiente.…”
