Subject. At present, diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, with a high frequency in children aged 9―14 years, are accompanied by lesions of the oral mucosa. These conditions are aggravated with orthodontic treatment. Therefore, the development of a scheme for the prevention of complications in children with gastrointestinal diseases undergoing orthodontic treatment is an urgent task of modern dentistry. Purpose ― to consider the problem of the state of the oral cavity and the cytological characteristics of the mucous membrane in children with gastrointestinal diseases, physiological occlusion and malocclusion undergoing orthodontic treatment, to investigate the dynamics of inflammatory processes of the jaw mucosa under the bases of removable orthodontic appliances. Methodology. The study involved 60 children aged 7―15 years. The cytomorphometric method was used. Results. The results of the study showed the possibility of using the cytomorphometric method for diagnosing and evaluating the effectiveness of the use of various prevention programs and medicines during orthodontic treatment. Cytomorphometry revealed significant differences in the effectiveness of the proposed prophylaxis scheme in children, contributed to the improvement of cytogram parameters and normalization of the inflammatory-destructive index, however, complete recovery of all cytomorphological parameters in patients undergoing orthodontic treatment did not occur. Conclusions. To improve the level of oral hygiene for children undergoing orthodontic treatment, it is necessary to use not only therapeutic and prophylactic toothpastes, but also an additional amount of prophylaxis. Children with gastrointestinal tract diseases and malocclusion who are undergoing orthodontic treatment are recommended to include Lizobact drugs in the periodontal disease prevention regimen, however, the use of these drugs alone is not enough to completely eliminate the inflammatory process.

Objective: Biofilms on removable orthodontic appliances act as reservoir of microorganisms, capable of modifying the environmental condition of oral cavity and are difficult to be removed with routine hygiene measures. The present investigation includes enumeration, identification and numerical analysis of different types of cultivable bacteria associated with the biofilms on removable orthodontic appliances. Study design: Removable appliances of 25 healthy children among the ages of 10 to 14 years were taken to measure the prevalence of biofilms and type of microorganisms. For isolation of microorganism from biofilms different types of selective and non-selective medium based on standard methods were used. The data were further analysed by using Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, one-sample t-test and Spearman rank correlation coefficient. The percentage frequencies of isolates were also calculated. Results : The survey revealed the presence of both multi-species and mono species biofilms on appliances, with Non-Streptococci, anaerobic bacteria, Streptococcus spp., members of the family Enterobacteriaceae and Lactobacillus spp. as a dominant microbial flora of biofilms. Bacilllus sp. and Candida sp. were isolated from one sample each. Significant positive and negative correlations were established among the species isolated from biofilms. Conclusion Higher prevalence of the members of the family Enterobacteriaceae were reported during this study, advocating an extra hygienic measure is essential for this age group while wearing acrylic orthodontic appliances in oral cavity.

Removable orthodontic appliances can be among the causes of microbial irritation in the oral cavity. The aim of the present study was to assess the oral hygiene status of patients with denture-related stomatitis. We carried out comprehensive dental checkup of 17 patients aged 51 to 69 years with denture-related stomatitis was performed. A bacterioscopic laboratory examination was performed for all patients. The denture hygiene index by E. Ambjörnsen has been determined. Denture-related stomatitis of the patients examined was manifested by various clinical signs. The species composition of the oral microflora when wearing removable dentures deviated from normal values. The Candida fungi were revealed in 13 (76.47%) cases; actinomycetes were recorded in 7 (42.2%) cases. We found that 82.35% of the patients with manifestations of denture-related stomatitis did not follow adequate oral hygienic. The study has shown that 3 (17.64%) cases were assessed as having satisfactory hygienic status. Poor denture hygiene (HI = 2.66) was observed in 5 (29.41%) of the cases. The unsatisfactory hygienic status of the dentures was recorded in 9 (52.94%) of cases and averaged 2.2. 15 (88.23%) patients were unaware of the importance of proper denture cleaning and did not use the hygiene algorithm in full. 3 (17.76%) patients did not did not remove dentures at nights, all the patients did not have a special double-sided brush. Only 5 (29.41%) of the respondents used dental elixirs fro mouth rinsing on regular basis. The results have demonstrated the importance of regular adequate care of dentures and strict adhering to an individual hygiene algorithm in full in order to prevent the occurrence of inflammatory processes in the oral cavity. The prevention is a key approach in the prophylaxis of side effects, which might be caused by dental appliances.

The purpose of this clinical case report is to discuss the approach to oral rehabilitation of a patient with severe dental alterations such as enamel hypoplasia, change in shape, supernumerary tooth, dental ankylosis, agnesia and crowing in the incisor region. All of these problems compromised not only the esthetical and functional aspects of this patient, but his social relationships as well. Thus integrated planning between Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics made it possible to provide the best treatment alternative to recover the patient's stomatognathic system. Esthetic restorations were performed in the anterior tooth region with the use of resin composites, in addition to the use of removable orthodontic appliances, associated with serial extractions and supernumerary tooth removal. There were significant improvements in the esthetic and functional aspects of dentition, in addition to the patient demonstrating good evolution in his psychosocial condition, as he smiled and was more communicative during each follow-up appointment, also according to his mother's reports.

INTRODUCTION: The finishing and polishing phases are essential to improve smoothness and shining on the surface of acrylic resins used to make removable orthodontic appliances. A good surface finishing reduces roughness, which facilitates hygiene, prevents staining and provides greater comfort to the patients. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this paper was to analyze the changes on surface morphology of acrylic resins during finishing and polishing phases. METHODS: Thirty discs (10 mm in diameter and 5 mm in length) were made with acrylic resin and randomly divided into ten groups. The control group did not receive any treatment while the other groups received gradual finishing and polishing. The last group received the entire finishing and polishing procedures. Surface morphology was qualitatively analyzed through scanning electron microscopy and quantitatively analyzed through a laser profilometer test. RESULTS: The acrylic resin surfaces without treatment showed bubbles which were not observed in the subsequent phases. Wearing out with multilaminated burs, finishing with wood sandpaper and finishing with water sandpaper resulted in surfaces with decreasing irregularities. The surfaces that were polished with pumice and with low abrasive liquids showed high superficial smoothness. CONCLUSION: Highly smooth acrylic resin surfaces can be obtained after mechanical finishing and polishing performed with multilaminated burs, wood sandpaper, water sandpaper, pumice and low abrasive liquids.

Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) resin is one of the most commonly used materials for fabricating the base of removable orthodontic appliances. It is known that PMMA resin can promote the adhesion of microbes due to its surface porosity and from long-term use. Vanillin-incorporated PMMA resin has been reported to have antimicrobial effects against Candida albicans. However, the influence of vanillin incorporation on the water sorption and solubility of self-curing orthodontic PMMA resin has not been studied. Objective: To determine the water sorption and solubility of self-curing orthodontic PMMA resin incorporated with different concentrations of vanillin. Materials and methods: Three groups of self-curing orthodontic PMMA resin incorporated with 0.1% and 0.5% vanillin as well as PMMA without vanillin as a control were prepared with ten specimens per group. Water sorption and solubility tests were performed according to ISO 20795-2:2013 specifications. One-way ANOVA and Tukey’s multiple comparison tests at a p<0.05 significance level were used to analyse the data. Results: All three groups met ISO standard requirements. The means of water sorption values showed insignificant differences among the three groups even though the value of the 0.5% vanillin group tended to decrease. Water solubility of the 0.1% vanillin-incorporated group was not significantly different when compared with the control group whereas that of the 0.5% vanillin-incorporated group exhibited a significant lower value when compared with both control and 0.1% vanillin-incorporated groups. This suggests that increasing concentrations of vanillin would decrease the water solubility of PMMA resin. Conclusion: The incorporation of 0.5% vanillin into self-curing orthodontic PMMA resin could significantly reduce its water solubility and showed a trend of less water sorption property. Even with different vanillin concentrations, the water sorption and water solubility properties of PMMA resin were within the ISO standards. Nevertheless, further studies are recommended to determine the amount of residual monomer present in different concentrations of vanillin-incorporated PMMA resin.
