Arthrogenic temporomandibular joint dysfunction is a prevalent condition often associated with arthralgia. It is also commonly caused by osteoarthritis. Palmitoylethanolamide has been reported to exhibit analgesic, neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects in pain pathological conditions. This paper will critically appraise recent evidence on the effectiveness of palmitoylethanolamide for the treatment of pain in arthrogenic temporomandibular joint dysfunction and related disorders. This paper will assess both the magnitude and longevity of the analgesic effect of palmitoylethanolamide. Method: An electronic database search was performed by two independent authors on the following databases: PubMed, Web of Science, Medline and Embase. A total of 23 articles were retrieved including relevant articles from reference lists. After the elimination of duplicates and further eligibility screening, a resultant total of 5 articles were suitable for review. One of these was a retrospective cohort study while the following 4 were randomised clinical trials. There was considerable heterogeneity of primary outcome variables and trial design across all selected studies which did not permit a meta-analysis of results. Conclusion: Palmitoylethanolamide is effective for the treatment of pain in arthrogenic temporomandibular joint dysfunction and related disorders. However, the longevity of palmitoylethanolamide-induced analgesia remains unclear. Further high-quality trials are warranted to reveal the relative effectiveness of palmitoylethanolamide in comparison to current medication.
关节源性颞下颌关节功能障碍是一种常见的疾病，通常与关节痛有关。它也通常由骨关节炎引起。棕榈酰乙醇酰胺已被报道在疼痛病理条件下表现出镇痛、神经保护和抗炎作用。本文将批判性地评价棕榈酰乙醇酰胺治疗关节源性颞下颌关节功能障碍和相关疾病疼痛的有效性的最新证据。本文将评估棕榈酰乙醇酰胺镇痛作用的强度和持续时间。方法:由两位独立作者对PubMed、Web of Science、Medline和Embase数据库进行电子检索。共检索到23篇文献，包括参考文献列表中的相关文献。在消除重复和进一步的资格筛选后，总共有5篇文章适合审查。其中一项是回顾性队列研究，接下来的4项是随机临床试验。在所有选定的研究中，主要结局变量和试验设计存在相当大的异质性，因此不允许对结果进行荟萃分析。结论:棕榈酰乙醇酰胺可有效治疗关节源性颞下颌关节功能障碍及相关疾病引起的疼痛。然而，棕榈酰乙醇酰胺诱导的镇痛效果的持续时间尚不清楚。需要进一步的高质量试验来揭示棕榈酰乙醇酰胺与当前药物相比的相对有效性。

Objective Sweden has received a large number of asylum-seeking individuals in recent years and many refugees are in need of urgent dental care. Refugees do not usually receive regular information about the Swedish dental-care system and its regulations upon arrival. The study was aimed to examine information and experiences associated with emergency dental care among newly arrived Syrian asylum-seeking patients in comparison with Swedish patients and to monitor how the dental staff perceived these two groups of patients. The hypothesis was that the Syrian patients lacked information about the Swedish dental-care system and that they were more dissatisfied with their emergency treatments. Two questionnaires for patients and therapists relating to information and experiences in connection with emergency dental visits were produced. The questionnaires were distributed consecutively and responded to by 96% of all involved patients and care- givers. patients received less help with their reasons for treatment, were less satisfied with the treatment and experienced more fear. The therapists had greater difficulties in interpreting the Syrian patients’ fear, their satisfaction with treatment and whether or not their expectations were met. In order to achieve a mutuality in the communication and understanding between the newly arrived refugee as a patient and the dental staff, it is important to provide accurate information about the Swedish dental care system to the refugee before the first dental care visit. There is also a need for improved skills among the dental-care providers in communicating and interpreting patients from other countries and different cultures.

Introduction: Ridge preservation procedures have been utilized to minimize the alveolar ridge dimensional changes following tooth extraction. This case report describes a novel approach to ridge preservation with an application of a carbon dioxide laser (CO2 laser) to stabilize blood clot formation and stimulate wound healing. Case presentation: A 76-year-old Caucasian male with history of type 2 diabetes was referred for extraction of #8 and placement of a dental implant to reconstruct the area. Extraction was performed in a minimal traumatic manner and a mineralized freeze-dried bone allograft was placed in the socket. A 10,600 nm wavelength CO2 laser was used in setting of 1.0 watts focused continuous wave energy to stabilize the blood clot over the extraction site. The laser was used until a char layer was formed. This char layer was a non-bleeding stable blood clot, and the end-point of laser application was set as “no blood flow from the clot are within 10 seconds.” No membranes or sutures were used. Eleven weeks after the extraction and ridge preservation, a 4.1x10mm dental implant was placed with >35N/cm of primary stability and Implant stability quotient (ISQ) value of 83. A provisional crown was delivered at the time of implant placement. Three months following implant placement, the final restoration was delivered. The soft and hard tissue healing were uneventful to achieve esthetic and functional outcomes. Conclusion: Within limits of this case report, the application of CO2 laser for “Laser-Assisted Blood Clot Formation” may enhance the soft and hard tissue healing following extraction for ridge preservations.

Objective : To compare the intra- and inter-arch accuracy of three-dimensional (3D) digital models acquired from various orthodontic scanners, including: an intraoral scanner, an extraoral scanner, and a cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan compared with the original, trimmed stone models. Methods : Fifteen sets of maxillary and mandibular finished plaster models were scanned using: Carestream 3600 intraoral scanner, Ortho-Insight 3D Motion View extraoral scanner, and Carestream 9300 CBCT scanner. Dolphin Imaging software was used to calculate various anatomic measurements on the digital models. Digital calipers were used to calculate the same measurements on the original plaster models for comparative purposes. Intraclass Correlation Coefficients (ICC) and pair-wise analysis of variance (ANOVA) were utilized to compare the 4 methods (original plaster models and 3 scanning methods). Results : ICC values for all intra-arch measurements between the 4 data groups were all >0.90. ICC values for the two inter-arch measurements (overbite and overjet) were both 0.79. CBCT measurements were significantly smaller than the two scanned models as well as the stone models for many intra-arch parameters. On average, these differences were less than 0.5mm. Conclusion : Digital models produced from CBCT scans of plaster casts appear to have adequate accuracy for orthodontic treatment planning and recordkeeping. Further studies are needed to determine the clinical efficiency of appliance design, fabrication, and chairside delivery using CBCT scanning technologies.
目的:比较各种正畸扫描仪(包括口内扫描仪、口外扫描仪和锥形束计算机断层扫描(CBCT)扫描)获得的三维(3D)数字模型与原始的、修整过的结石模型的弓内和弓间精度。方法:使用Carestream 3600口腔内扫描仪、Ortho-Insight 3D Motion View口腔外扫描仪和Carestream 9300 CBCT扫描仪扫描15套上颌和下颌石膏成品模型。使用Dolphin Imaging软件对数字模型进行各种解剖测量计算。数字卡尺用于计算原始石膏模型的相同测量以进行比较。采用类内相关系数(ICC)和双方差分析(ANOVA)对4种方法(原始石膏模型和3种扫描方法)进行比较。结果:4个数据组间所有足弓内测量的ICC值均为>0.90。两种牙弓间测量(覆盖咬合和覆盖喷流)的ICC值均为0.79。CBCT测量值明显小于两种扫描模型以及许多拱内参数的石头模型。这些差异平均小于0.5mm。结论:由石膏模型CBCT扫描产生的数字模型对于正畸治疗计划和记录保存具有足够的准确性。需要进一步的研究来确定使用CBCT扫描技术的矫治器设计、制造和椅子旁递送的临床效率。

Objective: To explore the role of parental education and communication of risks versus benefits of pediatric dental image on parents’ knowledge, comfort and confidence in allowing their children to receive the necessary imaging procedures. Methods: Parents of children <18 years of age were recruited during routine dental visits at the Boston University Pediatric Oral Health Care Center and Department of Dentistry at the Boston Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts. Participants completed two brief questionnaires immediately before and after the educational intervention. A brief two-sided printed informational handout and a mobile application called Medical Imaging Risk (MIR) were used in the educational intervention for parental health education and communication of information on radiation risks. Statistical analysis was conducted using STATA version 14.0 to compare pre-intervention and post-intervention responses of participants. Results: Among 213 parents, the majorities were mothers (83%), African American (55%), with MassHealth insurance (82%) and reported that their child/children have had previous dental radiographs (75%). A significant improvement in confidence of their knowledge on benefits and risks of dental imaging was observed following the educational intervention (p<0.001). Parents’ level of comfort in allowing the use of dental radiographs for their children significantly improved after the educational intervention (p<0.001). Parents preferred the printed handout (53%) only slightly more than the mobile application (47%). Conclusion: The results from our study suggest that a simple brief educational intervention that includes easy to understand materials can significantly improve parental level of knowledge and confidence towards pediatric dental imaging. Thus dental practitioners should aim to include risk-benefit dialogues as part of the routine dental care visit to improve communication and acceptance of pediatric imaging.

Flaws in the control of dental caries and periodontal disease, possibility of root fractures and the difficulty in understand and reproduce the bilaterally balanced occlusion, takes many professionals to be reluctant to indicates this technique, preferring to remove remaining teeth and install implants [3,4,6]. However, the use of natural tooth roots to support overdentures brings benefits to the patient, assisting the proprioception, eliminating the osseointegration period and reducing the final cost of the prosthesis, because it eliminates the need for the acquisition of prosthetic components, and clinical and laboratory procedures related to installation of implants. Maintaining compliance with oral hygiene and specific care with the natural supports and prosthesis, the time life justifies the indication of this technique. In addition, an appropriate treatment plan for the making of overdentures on natural roots is a mandatory choice for patients who have underwent radiotherapy as a complementary treatment of cancerous lesions. Several authors are unanimous in stating that the radiation is a factor associated with the loss of implants and the decrease in its survival rate [7–16]. The effects of the radiotherapy appear to be more severe in the jaw due the less blood supply in the newly formed bone. So the benefit of the indication of the overdenture on natural roots in these cases, when compared to the overdenture on implant must overcome risk [7].

James Gardette, Surgeon Dentist, was the second son of Jean Blaize Gardette, and was born 13th of August, 1756, in the town of Agen, departement de Lot et Garonne, France. His father died when James was quite a lad, and we are but little acquainted with this early period of his life : nor, indeed, does it enter into the plan for the performance of our task. We only know that he possessed a very trifling patrimony, insufficient for his maintenance or education, and that after his father’s death he was brought up by his paternal uncle, Blaize Gardette, who lived at Agen, and held the office of Prosecuting Attorney until an advanced age. His uncle designed James for the medical profession, and with that view, after the ordinary academical studies of that day in a provincial town of France, sent him to Paris. He remained at the capital about two years (from 1773 to 1775), pursuing the study of Anatomy and Surgery in the Royal Medical School; and thence he was removed to the Hospital at Toulouse, where he resided eighteen months as a pupil in the Institution [1; 5]. At the end of this period he was sent to Bayonne, and there was examined by the surgeons of the Admiralty, and commissioned as a surgeon in the French navy. On obtaining the commission in the navy, he received orders to embark in his professional capacity, on board the brig of war La Barquaize de St. Jean de Luz, destined for Boston, Massachusetts. He sailed in October, 1777, with La Fayette and the Count of Rochambeau [1]. He arrived at Plymouth early in January following (1778). The love of liberty and popular movement throughout France, which brought so many young Frenchmen to the United States, at the period of our «Declaration of Independence,» had no small influence in governing the course of Gardette. He made a cruise of four months, during which an engagement occurred with two British ships, lasting three hours and a half, and in which there were several killed and wounded on board the vessel of which he was the surgeon. This seems to have terminated his official duties and connection with the French navy, from which he resigned, intending to adopt this country as his home. When the French fleet and army arrived at Newport (1780), he was induced to visit that town, and commence practice as a Dentist, the officers affording him considerable and congenial occupation for a short time. He had received instructions in dental operations (as part of his profession of Naval Surgeon) from Mrs. Le Roy de la Faudinière et Louis Laforgue, Dentists at Paris, then in high repute. He had also provided himself with the best works extant (Fauchard and Bourdet) on the Teeth, and with a limited set of dental instruments : still we scarcely think he could have had any expectations of pursuing the profession of Dentist in this country, at the time he left France [2]. In 1781-1782, he became acquainted with a young American soldier, Josiah Flagg (1763-1816), whom he is thought to have instructed in the

He had also provided himself with the best works extant (Fauchard and Bourdet) on the Teeth, and with a limited set of dental instruments : still we scarcely think he could have had any expectations of pursuing the profession of Dentist in this country, at the time he left France [2]. In 1781-1782, he became acquainted with a young American soldier, Josiah Flagg (1763-1816), whom he is thought to have instructed in the ","PeriodicalId":326702,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Dental and Maxillofacial Research","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133150159","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Objectives: The purpose of the project is to initiate an educational opportunity for hospital based physicians on their understanding of the relationship between oral health and systemic health. The project investigated the current level of oral health knowledge among medical health professionals. Methods: Harvard School of Dental Medicine (HSDM) and Mount Auburn Hospital (MAH) offered an oral health session for in-patient clinicians (Hospitalists, Medicine Residents, and Physician Assistants) to investigate the current level of oral health knowledge among medical health professionals and introduce them to the concept of oral health. In-patient clinicians at MAH were asked to fill out a pre-session survey online, regarding their familiarity with basic oral health concepts and their comfort level with performing oral examinations, and a post-session survey on paper that repeated the pre-session questions. Results : Fifty-three in-patient clinicians participated in the pre-session surveys, of which fourteen attended the educational information session and completed the post-session survey. Results showed that the session aided clinicians’ understanding of the relevance of oral health in overall patient care. Conclusion: The oral health education session can be a useful tool in contributing to awareness of oral health and understanding the link between oral diseases with systemic issues for in-patient clinicians.
