Teeth are biological markers of maturity, and their eruption into the oral cavity is an essential milestone in an individual's life. Multiple factors have been considered to play a role in the pattern of tooth eruption, including dental caries, fluorides and congenital conditions such as Down's syndrome. The aim of the paper was to determine the time of eruption of permanent teeth amongst children aged between five and ten years, visiting the Dental College in Mangalore. A survey was conducted among children aged between 5 to 10 years visiting A.B. Shetty Memorial Institute of Dental Sciences Deralakatte, Mangalore. Each child included in the study was screened by clinical examination for the erupted and erupting permanent teeth. A parent/guardian accompanying a child was interviewed and their data were recorded. The study revealed that the first tooth to erupt was the left mandibular first molar, with a mean age of eruption at 6.4 years. A slight early eruption of teeth was noticed in the left side of the jaw compared to the right side in the present study. The first permanent tooth to erupt in the oral cavity is the left mandibular first molar and there is a slight delay in the eruption of the maxillary lateral incisor in the study population.

A 2.5-year-old intact male Irish setter was presented for a draining tract associated with the right mandibular first molar tooth (409). Conscious oral examination yielded two draining tracts associated with the right mandibular first molar tooth. No obvious missing teeth or other gross abnormalities associated with the oral cavity were observed. Upon anesthetized radiographic evaluation, the presence of an unerupted, abnormally positioned, supernumerary premolar tooth was observed. The following article describes the extraction of the right mandibular first molar tooth (409) as well as the unerupted supernumerary premolar tooth with associated supernumerary root and the diagnostic approach taken for this uncommon abnormality.

One of the important factors of referring children to dentistry is dental caries in the primary teeth. It is commonplace to see moments of anxiety for both the child and their parents when a tooth decays happen. It should be noted that the thickness of enamel in children is little, which is one of the factors that affect dental caries to develop more easily. In order to prevent the dental decay of primary teeth, there are several ways in which a dentist can present in order to guide the child and their parents into the right preventive path.

Modern domestic preventive dentistry has success in the theory of the origin and development of major dental diseases, practice of treatment, including dental caries, and uses these results to prevent children’s diseases in the country. However, the desired effectiveness of preventive measures have not been achieved primarily among the population and individual level, taking into account some specific characteristics of residence region, etiology and pathogenesis of the demineralization phenomena of hard dental tissues in different periods of child’s development. Adverse environmental conditions and technogenic character are not taken into account, when air, soil and groundwater are oversaturated with environmental contaminants and toxicants. They cause fatal breakage in biochemical reactions and metabolic processes in childhood and at a young age, when defective dental health brings a lot of problems in the adult period of life, and, as a result, reduces the life. Investigation of dental health had been conducted in 251 preschool age children (first age group consisted of 3-4 years-old, II group consisted of 5-6 – years-old with 123 and 128 people respectively). In addition, all the observed children were divided into two groups depending on the use of prophylactic anti-caries interventions: the basic group was in compliance with the "Program- maximum" and control the "Program- minimum". Approximately 60 members were in the monitoring teams of different age groups. The "Program-minimum" included measures of general health, balanced diet with the significant restriction of carbohydrate and perform twice a day hygiene actions in the oral cavity. The “Program – maximum” also included the ingestion of calcium citrate and amino acids with SH-group of methionine. Such treatment and prophylactic complex has the adaptive, antioxidant, antidote and immune resolving action. It makes sense for neutralization of eco toxicants – heavy metals in the area of children’s residence. It was found that level of Fe and Zn was in the threatening degree of content, and Cd is moderate in the living environment of the examined children. It provokes and enhances the glycolytic processes in the oral cavity. Harmful effect of toxicants in the oral cavity, and also in a children's organism as a whole, was clearly fixed in the mineralization of the skeleton flat bones of children. It was revealed with densitometry of the calcaneus that 53 individuals had  indicators, particularly BUA. They indicated the weakening of the skeleton mineralization. It indirectly pointed to problems in the hard tissues of the teeth. However, the use of treatment and prophylactic complex improved the bone structures density. The level of calcium and phosphate in the oral fluid of the observed individuals had recovered to optimal after three years of use of treatment and prophylactic complex, contributed to effective secondary mineralization both in temporary and in permanent teeth. Thus, the use of treatment and prophylactic complex in people of the basic group allowed quite convincingly and positively to impact on the incidence of caries of deciduous and permanent teeth. The rate of growth of dental caries intensity after three years of preventive interventions in the basic group was three times less than in the control group. At the same time, the caries preventive efficacy was 59-62%, and this is a very positive indicator. These results are evidence of proven necessity of prophylactic of dental health correction in children years of those people who reside in areas with a very complex technogenic environment due to metallurgical plants located in the Prydniprovsk region.

Mandibular First Molar

The mandibular first molars are one of the first permanent teeth to erupt; thus, it remains the longest in terms of exposure to cariogenic pathogens. Also, its anatomical location and structure make it a prime location for dental caries (DC) but hard to access for cleaning. Thus, we aim to compare its incidence in adults and teenagers because the identification of the most susceptible age for tooth decay is key in prevention and prophylaxis against the same. A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted by reviewing and analysing the data of 86,000 patient records from June 2019 to April 2020. Patients with treated mandibular first molars were selected from the age group of 13 and above. A Microsoft Excel 2016 data spreadsheet was used to collect data and was later exported to the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences for Windows (Version 20.0, SPSS). The number of males with DC in their mandibular first molar (59%) was higher than that of the females (41%). The highest number of cases were reported to prevail in the 'Young Adults' group, with 56.7%, followed by the 'Middle Adults' with 26%. This shows that adults have a higher incidence of DC in their mandibular first molars than teenagers. Also, there was a clear incidence of 46 having a higher incidence than caries in 36. (52.5% > 47.5%). There is an association between age and incidence of dental DC as proved by our Chi-Square Test, where we obtained a 'p' value of p<0.05, making it statistically significant. Once lost, our teeth cannot be naturally replaced, making prevention imperative. Thus, identifying the age in which we are most prone to decay is a great leap forward. But since the study does present with limitations, further research needs to be done to confirm the same.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to consider the potential association between the formation of salivary streptococcus biofilms and the incidence of caries, as well as with the occurrence of antibiotic resistance among adult mothers in Sana'a, Yemen.  Study design: A total of 261; 25-35 year old females were chosen. Clinical examination of females were performed to estimate dental caries experience with the Silness-Loe index, as well as stimulated saliva were collected to assess biofilm production by the phenotypic method i.e. Tissue culture palate methods (TCPM). Finally, antibiogram susceptibility pattern of isolated S. mutans was done by Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method for 6  β-Lactam antibiotics (ampicillin, penicillin, amoxicillin, cefotaxime, methicillin and cefazolin) and 4 non β-Lactam antibiotics (clindamycin, erythromycin, lincomycin and vancomycin). Results: When isolated S. mutans were exposed to biofilm detection by TCP method, 31 (12.2%) showed high biofilm formation capacity, 46 (18%) showed moderate biofilm formation capacity, while 184 (72.2%) showed non / weak formation capacity of biofilm. The overall rate of biofilm formation was 30.2%. There was an escalation in the rate of formation of S. mutans biofilms with an increased degree of caries index. The S. mutans biofilms positve showed a higher rate of resistance than non/weak biofilm formation e.g ampicillin (28.6% versus 12.9%,  p = 0.002), amoxicillin (77.9% versus 18%, p <0.0001), and penicillin (79.2 % versus 23%, <0.0001) etc.  Conclusion: The present study proved that S. mutans is still the major bacteria isolate from the oral cavity, but few persons might not have significant number of S. mutans in oral cavity. The S. mutans biofilm - producers were more able to cause dental caries compared to the S. mutans biofilm-non-producers. Drug resistant factor in the S. mutans isolates was found to be associated with S. mutans biofilm formation.                           Peer Review History: Received 12 November  2020; Revised 20 Decembe; Accepted 5 January, Available online 15 January 2021 UJPR follows the most transparent and toughest ‘Advanced OPEN peer review’ system.

Over the past decade, dental sealants have become recognized as an important adjunct to the use of fluorides in the prevention of dental caries. The most recent national survey of oral health in children conducted in 1986–1987 found that only 7.6% of children had any sealed teeth. As part of the oral health component of the 1988–1991 Third National Health and Examination Survey (NHANES III-Phase 1), the prevalence of dental sealants in children, adolescents, and adults was determined. The presence of dental sealants on posterior teeth (excluding third molars) and maxillary lateral incisors was recorded by visual and tactile methods during the dental caries examination. Findings in this paper are based on those examined persons having at least one sealable primary tooth for children aged 2–11 years (n = 3,792); at least one sealable permanent tooth for persons aged 5–17 years (n = 2,989); and at least one sealable permanent tooth for persons aged 18 years and over (n = 7,146). During 1988–1991, about 18.5% of US children and youth ages 5–17 had one or more sealed permanent teeth. A significantly higher percentage of non-Hispanic whites had sealants in comparison with their non-Hispanic black and Mexican-American counterparts (for all contrasts, p < 0.001). As expected, molar teeth were the most frequently sealed tooth type. Only 1.4% of US children ages 2–11 had at least one sealed primary tooth. The prevalence of dental sealants decreased in the US adult population with increasing age; 5.5% of adults ages 18–24 had at least one sealed permanent tooth. Data collected from NHANES III-Phase 2 (1991–1994) will be analyzed to determine if the upward trend in sealant use continues.

Objectives: The purpose of this review is to determine the usefulness of panoramic radiography during mixed dentition and also to capture panoramic radiographs during mixed dentition. Review: Mixed dentition is a period of mixed dentition and a period of transition from sequential deciduous teeth followed by the eruption of the replacement tooth, namely the permanent tooth. The mixed dental phase occurs in children aged 6-12 years, beginning with the eruption of the first permanent tooth, usually a central incisor or mandibular first molar. Changes in occlusion occur significantly during this time due to the loss of the deciduous teeth and the eruption of the replacement permanent teeth. Conclusion: The mixed dentition period can be classified into 3 phases, namely. (1) the first transitional period, occurs at 6-8 years of age. In this phase, the eruption of the permanent first molars and the replacement of the deciduous incisors with the permanent incisors occurred. (2) the inter-transitional period, after the first molars and permanent incisors erupt, there is a transient period of about 1-2 years before the second transition phase begins. In this phase, it is called inter-transitional because the maxillary and mandibular arches consist of deciduous and permanent teeth. In the inter-transitional phase it is relatively stable and no changes occur. (3) the second transitional period at age (10-13 years), the date of the mandibular canine at about 10 years of age usually begins the second transitional period.

Introduction: Oral health knowledge and awareness among parents is an integral component of preventing dental caries among children. Objective: The purpose of this paper is to assess the parent's knowledge, awareness and perception regarding the care of primary teeth attending the Dental OPD, BPKIHS, Dharan, Nepal. Methodology: A questionnaire based survey was conducted among 200 parents in randomly selected manner. Results: The data was analyzed using SPSS software version 12.0. Only 54% of the parents were aware of the importance of primary teeth in children and 82% understood that untreated caries in primary dentition can have effects on general health of children. Approx 82% parents were aware of pediatric dentist and majority felt that they are the right person to contact when dental problems occur in children. Surprisingly only 57% of parents were aware of the preventive role of fluorinated tooth in dental caries. A majority of parents assume that filling is the appropriate treatment option for caries in children rather than extraction and 40.5% felt that premature primary teeth extraction will results in malalignment of permanent teeth. A very negative response was obtained regarding routine dental visit to pediatric dentist. Majority (61%) visited only when dental problems occurred whereas 12-16% answered they visit in every 6 months or once in a year. Conclusions: We concluded that knowledge, awareness and perception of parents regarding importance of primary teeth were inadequate. There is an immediate need to cultivate and reinforce positive attitudes among parents and substantially raise their dental awareness through child dental health oriented programs.

Introduction: Partial edentulism is an irreversible condition resulting from various dental diseases like dental caries and periodontal lesions. Loss of teeth produces deleterious effects on masticatory function, phonetics, facial appearance and comfort of the patients. If not restored on time, it can lead to pathological changes in vertical dimension, occlusion and temporomandibular joint. Methods: This study was conducted in the department of Prosthodontics, CODS, BPKIHS from September 2015 to March 2016. All patients above the age of 14 years presenting with partial loss of dentition and willing to give informed consent were included in the study. Data regarding age, gender, missing teeth, cause of permanent tooth loss and age of first permanent tooth loss were collected from 750 patients. Results: Dental caries was the major cause of tooth loss accounting for 60.5% of the study population followed by periodontal disease (14.0%) and trauma (11.9%). First permanent tooth loss was highest in the age group of 35-44 years (22.9%). The most common type of partial edentulism was found to be Kennedy’s class III followed by class IV, class I and class II in both the arches. Conclusions: The most common cause of permanent tooth loss was dental caries in the study population. The first permanent tooth loss was found to be highest in age group 35-44 years. The most common type of partial edentulism was the Kennedy's class III in both the arches.
