Dental Radiographs

Periodontal disease is the most common disease affecting pet animals including cats and dogs. This disease can cause pain and discomfort affecting the animal’s life quality. The purpose of this study is to evaluate periodontal disease from dental radiographs taken from male domestic short hair cats. Eight male domestic short hair cats from Universitas Padjadjaran Jatinangor campus were recruited for the study. This study observed several changes within the periodontium from dental radiography with simple quantification and analyzed using descriptive analysis. Dental radiographs were taken on the second right mandibula premolar (408). Several changes found in the dental radiography including widening of the periodontal ligament, bone loss and furcation involvement. This study shows varied changes in the periodontium due to the cat’s immune responses. The examined cats were experiencing widening of the periodontal ligament, bone loss and furcation involvement (37.5%, 25% and 87.5%) respectively. All cats examined were experiencing periodontal disease.

ABSTRACT Periodontal disease is extremely common in companion animal practice. Patients presenting for a routine oral examination and prophylaxis may be found to have extensive periodontal disease and attachment loss. Vertical bone loss is a known sequela to periodontal disease and commonly involves the distal root of the mandibular first molar. This case report outlines two dogs presenting for oral examination and prophylaxis with general anesthesia. Both patients did not have any clinical symptoms of periodontal disease other than halitosis. Both patients were diagnosed with three-walled vertical bone loss defects of one or both mandibular first molars utilizing dental radiography as well as periodontal probing, measuring, and direct visual inspection. These defects were consistent with periodontal disease index stage 4 (>50% attachment loss). The lesions were treated with appropriate root planing and debridement. Bone augmentation products readily available and marketed for veterinary use were then utilized to fill the defects to promote both the re-establishment of normal alveolar bone height and periodontal ligament reattachment to the treated surface. Follow-up assessment and owner dedication is critical to treatment outcome. Both patients' 6 mo follow-up examinations radiographically indicated bone repair and replacement with visible periodontal ligament space.

The Impact

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of ovariectomy-induced estrogen deficiency as a risk factor of periodontal disease in rats. Forty 90-day old female rats were either ovariectomized (OVX; n=20) or sham operated (SHAM; n=20). After 30 days, periodontitis was induced by placement of a cotton ligature around the upper second molars of 10 OVX and 10 SHAM animals. All animals were sacrificed 5 weeks later. Body weight was assessed before all surgical procedures. The left hemimaxillas were removed and the percentage of periodontal bone support was determined radiographically and buccal alveolar bone loss was determined macroscopically using an image-analysis software. Furcation involvement was also evaluated. Data were analyzed statistically by ANOVA at 5% significance level. Within the evaluated period, the ovariectomized rats gained more weight than the sham-operated animals (p<0.001). The animals in which periodontitis was induced had less bone support, greater alveolar bone loss and furcation involvement than those without ligature (p<0.001). However, there was no difference between ovariectomized and sham-operated animals (p>0.05). Based on the findings of this study, estrogen deficiency could not be considered as a risk factor for periodontal disease.

Abstract In the present study we compared the effects of the selective COX-2 inhibitor etoricoxib with those of the classical non-selective NSAID diclofenac on the inflammatory process and alveolar bone loss in an experimental model of periodontitis in rats. Ninety male Holtzman rats (250 g) were randomly sorted into four experimental groups: Sham+CMC and Ligature+CMC (control) groups which received 0.5% carboxymethylcellulose sodium (CMC) solution; Ligature+Diclofenac and Ligature+Etoricoxib groups which received Potassium Diclofenac and Etoricoxib, respectively, suspended in 0.5% CMC (10 mg/kg/day). At 7, 14 and 21 days after placing ligatures in the cervical region of both the lower right and left first molars, the animals were euthanized. At the end of each period, the mandibles were collected for radiographic examination of alveolar bone loss. In addition, alveolar bone and periodontal ligament tissue samples were collected for COX-2 expression analysis and gingival tissues were collected for measurement of PGE2 contents. Animals with ligature-induced periodontal disease showed significant increased COX-2 gene expression at days 7, 14 and 21 (p<0.05) on alveolar bone and periodontal ligament. However, both treatments resulted in significantly reduced alveolar bone loss when compared to the untreated Ligature group (p<0.05), with no statistical difference between Etoricoxib and Diclofenac Potassium groups. This study shows that both drugs were able to reduce alveolar bone loss after periodontal disease induction.

AbstractPrimary headaches are common disease of the modern society and it has high negative impact on the productivity and the life quality of the affected person. Unfortunately, the precise diagnosis of the headache type is hard and usually imprecise, thus methods of headache diagnosis are still the focus of intense research. The paper introduces the problem of the primary headache diagnosis and presents its current taxonomy. The considered problem is simplified into the three class classification task which is solved using advanced machine learning techniques. Experiments, carried out on the large dataset collected by authors, confirmed that computer decision support systems can achieve high recognition accuracy and therefore be a useful tool in an everyday physician practice. This is the starting point for the future research on automation of the primary headache diagnosis.

Cathepsin K (CTSK) is a cysteine protease that is mainly produced from mature osteoclasts and contributes to the destruction of connective tissues and mineralized matrix as a consequence of periodontal disease (PD). However, few studies have reported its regulatory role in osteoclastogenesis-supporting cells in inflammatory conditions. Here, we investigated the role of CTSK in osteoclastogenesis-supporting cells, focusing on the modulation of paracrine function. Microarray data showed that CTSK was upregulated in PD patients compared with healthy individuals, which was further supported by immunohistochemistry and qPCR analyses performed with human gingival tissues. The expression of CTSK in the osteoclastogenesis-supporting cells, including dental pulp stem cells, gingival fibroblasts, and periodontal ligament fibroblasts (PDLFs) was significantly elevated by treatment with inflammatory cytokines such as TNFα and IL-1β. Moreover, TNFα stimulation potentiated the PDLF-mediated osteoclastogenesis of bone marrow-derived macrophages. Interestingly, small interfering RNA-mediated silencing of CTSK in PDLF noticeably attenuated the TNFα-triggered upregulation of receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL), macrophage colony-stimulating factor, and RANKL/osteoprotegerin ratio, thereby abrogating the enhanced osteoclastogenesis-supporting activity of PDLF. Collectively, these results suggest a novel role of CTSK in the paracrine function of osteoclastogenesis-supporting cells in periodontal disease.

Objective:Systemic lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disease that affects multiple organs. It is well known that lupus patients have higher risk of osteoporosis, but if the disease affects mandibular cortical bone and alveolar bone is not fully established. The objective of this study was to evaluate periodontal disease defects and mandibular osteoporotic alterations in patients with lupus as compared to healthy patients using panoramic radiographs.Material and Methods:The panoramic radiographs of 72 patients with lupus and 360 healthy patients were evaluated for the presence of bone loss secondary to periodontal disease, classified as horizontal and vertical bone loss. We also assessed mandibular osteoporotic alterations by using the mandibular cortical index. Logistic regression analysis was applied to estimate the risk of mandibular osteoporotic alterations as well as horizontal and vertical bone loss in patients with lupus as compared to healthy patients.Results:There were no statistically significant differences between groups in the presence of horizontal bone defects and mandibular cortical indexes. However, patients with lupus demonstrated that patients with lupus were 2.17 more likely to present vertical bone loss than healthy patients.Conclusions:Patients with lupus might have higher risk of vertical bone loss than healthy patients due to pathophysiology of their disease. Further larger prospective studies should be performed to confirm our findings.

RESUMOObjetivo: A lesão de furca é definida como a reabsorção óssea patológica na área anatômica onde as raízes de dentes multirradiculares divergem. Os molares são os dentes mais afetados pela doença periodontal e a maior taxa de mortalidade desses dentes pode ser explicada pela  morfologia que favorece o envolvimento de furca. Portanto, o dentista deve conhecer a anatomia da furca para diagnosticar precocemente seu envolvimento e tratar com precisão. O objetivo deste estudo é discutir, embasado em evidências científicas, a importância do tronco radicular no estabelecimento e progressão da doença periodontal. Materiais e métodos: uma revisão da literatura foi realizada na base de dados PubMed utilizando os termos tronco radicular, área de pré-furca, doença periodontal, envolvimento de furca em inglês. Resultados: Quarenta e três estudos foram selecionados e sete estudos foram incluídos nesta revisão.  O  tronco radicular na superfície lingual é maior do que na vestibular em molares inferiores. A área de pré-furca foi encontrada em todos os molares estudados. Os pré-molares superiores também apresentam área de pré-furca e 37% são bifurcados. A altura do tronco radicular e a concavidade da pré-furca interferem no tratamento. Conclusão: As características morfológicas do tronco radicular e a profundidade e largura da área de pré-furca podem favorecer o estabelecimento e progressão da doença periodontal.Palavras-chave: tronco radicular, área de pré-furca, doença periodontal, envolvimento de furca. ABSTRACTObjective: The furcation lesion is defined as pathological bone resorption in the anatomical area where the roots of multiradicular teeth differ. Molars are the teeth most affected by periodontal disease and the higher mortality rate of these teeth can be explained by the morphology that favors the furcation involvement. In this way, the dentist must know the anatomy of the furca to diagnose its involvement early and to treat with precision. The aim of this study is to discuss, based cientific evidences, the importance of the root trunk for the establishment and development of the periodontal disease. Material and Methods: A literature review was carried out in the PubMed database using the terms root trunk, pre furcation área, periodontal disease, furcation involvement in english. Results: Forty-three studies were selected and sextuplets were found at the time of the review. The root trunk at the lingual surface is larger than the buccal surface in lower molars. A pre-furcation area was found in all molars studied. Upper premolars also have a pre-furcation area and 37% are bifurcated. The height of the root trunk and the concavity of the pre-furcation area interfere in the treatment. Conclusion: Root trunks and concavity of the pre furcation area may favor the stablishment and progression of periodontal disease.Keywords: root trunk, pre furcation área, periodontal disease, furcation involvement.

ABSTRACT This study discusses the role of orthodontic treatment as an adjunct to the control and treatment of periodontal disease conditions, and describes a clinical case of severe anterior mandibular crowding and periodontal disease followed up for nine years and three months after orthodontic treatment completion. Malocclusion impaired proper dental hygiene, which led to bone loss and development of a periodontal abscess between mandibular canines and lateral incisors. After scaling and root planing, orthodontic treatment was initiated with extraction of the four second premolars, to correct the deficiency detected in cephalometric and model analysis. Treatment objectives were met, and facial and dental esthetics was satisfactory. Adequate periodontal management, hygiene control and tooth movement ensured ideal occlusion and facilitated the control of biofilm.
