“…The authors are with the division of preventive den¬ tistry and public health, University of Illinois Appropriate descriptions of the cities of Aurora and Rockford and of the population groups examined appear in another report (6 In Aurora and Rockford, dentist-to-population ratio was about the same, and the proportion of DMF tooth surfaces filled (approximately 70 percent) was equally high, indicating that dentists in Rockford had to do more work to provide amounts of dental care equivalent to that found in Aurora. On the average, although more than 16 more decayed tooth surfaces had been filled in Rockford, more than twice as many lesions remained unrestored, and there was greater loss of teeth.…”

“…However, some studies have reported better gingival conditions in fluoride compared with non-fluoride areas (Russell, 1957;Englander et at., 1963;Moller, 1965). Our survey showed some significant differences between fluorosis and nonfluorosis areas.…”

“…Although dental plaque accumulation in low-vs. high-fluoride areas was rarely investigated, certain studies found either no differences (Englander and White, 1964) or slightly lower levels of plaque in fluoride areas (Englander et al, 1963;Poulsen and M6ller, 1974). In this study, no differences in the plaque index could be observed between the two areas.…”

The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence and severity of dental caries and dental fluorosis, as well as various other oral conditions, in 2378 subjects (ages seven to 60) living in the fluoridated area of Khouribga and the non-fluoridated area of Beni Mellal, Morocco. The community index of dental fluorosis (CFI) ranged from 1.99 to 2.80 in the high-fluoride area: Over 90% of the population was affected, and more than one-third of the subjects showed moderate dental fluorosis. However, in Beni Mellal, more than 96% of the dentate subjects examined were free of dental fluorosis, and the CFI of 0.02 was considered not significant. Significant differences were observed between the two areas with respect to caries prevalence. DMFT and DMFS indices were markedly lower in the fluorosis area of Khouribga. The oral conditions of subjects appeared to be better in Khouribga, where the gingival and calculus indices were significantly lower than in Beni Mellal. The analyses of covariance showed no significant differences in plaque accumulation (PI) between the Khouribga and Beni Mellal samples. However, a close statistical correlation was found between PI and GI in Beni Mellal and Khouribga.

“…[27][28][29] Authors have reported no association between periodontal parameters and fluorosis, 30,31 increased periodontal scores, 5,7 and reduced periodontal scores. 24,32,33 Recently, a review 34,35 has discussed about various detrimental effects of fluoride on periodontal structures. Going by molecular aspect as well, the excess of fluoride in water can not only influence the microbial flora but the influence of this (possibly) altered microbial flora on the already altered/modified oral tissues remains to be studied.…”

Aim Determination of the effect of varying fenestration technique, and simulated patch graft on outflow facility for Baerveldt tube. Materials and methods Silicone tubing similar to Baerveldt implant (AMO, Santa Ana, CA) with different fenestrations techniques was connected to a digital manometer in a closed system with a fluid-filled syringe on a stand to adjust pressure. The venting slits included: (A) 4 piercings with 7–0 TG140-8 needle; (B) a 2-mm slit with a 15° blade; (C) 4 piercings with a 15° blade; (D) 9–0 Nylon on CS140-6 needle with suture stenting the fenestration. Results For pressures of 10, 20, 30, 40 mm Hg in groups A to D, the average outflow facility (mL/min/mm Hg) were group A: 0.11, 0.20, 0.28, 0.40; group B: 0.30, 0.69, 0.98, 0.93; group C: 0.73, 0.80, 0.81, 0.88; group D: 0.58, 0.65, 0.80, 0.87. For external compression with 10 gram weights at pressures of 10, 20, 30, 40 mm Hg, outflow were group A: 0.0, 0.18, 0.20, 0.53; group B: 0.75, 0.70, 0.97, 1.21. Group C: 0.18, 0.03, 0.57, 0.04. Group D: 0.73, 0.90, 1.13, 0.91. Conclusion Effectivity of venting slits in maintaining adequate IOP in the early postoperative period for non-valved glaucoma implant is variable, multifactorial and largely intraocular pressure (IOP) dependent. Clinical significance This study explores methods of producing fenestration and the effects on outflow at different pressures in an attempt to determine which fenestration technique has more reproducible results that can be made applicable in clinical practice. This is also the first study to evaluate the effect of external pressures similar to scleral patch graft on the tube fenestrations.
