“…Recently, Fadel et al. () presented in a study of a risk model for root caries that about one‐fifth of the patients referred for periodontal treatment showed an increased risk which is in accordance with our findings. In the present study, population the problem with root caries exists, but seems not to be the main reason for tooth loss.…”

“…In a recent study from Finland, it has been shown that severe periodontal disease and dental caries tend to accumulate in the same patients (Mattila et al 2010). Previous studies in periodontally treated patients have shown the cause of root caries to be of multifactorial character (Ravald et al 1986, Fadel et al 2011. At the middle of the past century, the main cause of periodontal disease was considered to be the amount of dental plaque and time of exposure (Lo¨vdal et al 1958, Schei et al 1959, Silness & Lo¨e 1964.…”

Previously treated patients at a specialist clinic for periodontology continued to lose teeth in spite of maintenance treatments at general practitioners and dental hygienists. The main reason for tooth loss was periodontal disease. Tooth loss was significantly more prevalent among smokers than non-smokers. Tooth-related risk factors were smoking, low numbers of teeth and prevalence of periodontal pockets, 4-6 mm.

“…The principal investigator (HF) was unaware of the referred individuals’ allocation to the psoriasis or the non‐psoriasis groups. They first answered a structured questionnaire with close‐ended questions about their dietary habits, daily meal frequency, sugar intake, oral hygiene, the use of fluoride, and other lifestyle habits, such as smoking 19 . Four bitewing radiographs were taken for each individual to assess the presence or absence of approximal caries and the alveolar bone level in the posterior region.…”

There were no differences in profiles of caries and periodontal disease experience and risk between individuals with and without psoriasis. Fewer remaining teeth were observed in individuals with psoriasis. However, the exact reason for tooth loss could not be identified. Meanwhile, the reduced salivary pH in individuals with psoriasis and salivary secretion in individuals with PsoA may pose some risk for future caries.

Assessment of Streptococcus mutans in healthy versus gingivitis and chronic periodontitis: A clinico-microbiological study

Background:Dental caries and periodontal disease are most common oral diseases. Streptococcus mutans are considered to be the major pathogens in initiation of dental caries. Evidence shows that periodontal disease and caries share a number of contributory factors. Thus in view of these findings it would be worthwhile to examine whether Streptococcus mutans persist within the saliva and subgingival environment of the periodontitis patients and to determine whether there is any association between Streptococcus mutans colonization, pH of saliva and sub-gingival plaque pH in periodontal diseases before therapy.Methods:The study comprises of 75 subjects aged between 20-70 years, reporting to department of Periodontology, KLEs Institute of Dental Sciences, Bangalore. Subjects were divided into 3 groups of 25 each. Group 1 – Healthy controls, Group 2 – Gingivitis Group, 3 – Chronic periodontitis. Unstimulated saliva was collected in sterile container and immediately pH was evaluated. Subgingival plaque samples were collected from four deepest periodontal pockets in chronic periodontitis and from first molars in healthy subjects using 4 sterile paper points. In gingivitis subjects samples were collected from areas showing maximum signs of inflammation. All paper points and saliva samples were cultured on mitis salivarius agar culture media with bacitracin for quantification of the Streptococcus mutans colonies.Results:Increased colonization of Streptococcus mutans was seen in chronic periodontitis subjects both in saliva and sub-gingival plaque samples. There was also a positive correlation seen with the periodontal parameters.Conclusion:More severe forms of periodontal disease may create different ecological niches for the proliferation of Streptococcus mutans.
