RESUMEN
BACKGROUND:Traditional 3D dental segmentation methods usually utilize predefined spatial geometric features,such as curvature and normal vectors,as the reference information for tooth segmentation. OBJECTIVE:To propose an algorithm for complex 3D dental segmentation and deeply explore the correlation between segmentation results and application scenarios. METHODS:A 3D dental segmentation algorithm based on dual stream extraction of structural features and spatial features was established,and the modular design of split flow was used to avoid feature confusion.Among them,the attention mechanism on the structural feature flow was used to capture the fine-grained semantic information required for tooth segmentation,and the Tran Net based on the spatial feature flow was used to ensure the robustness of the model to complex tooth and jaw segmentation.This algorithm verified its effectiveness and reliability based on clinical datasets including healthy dental jaws and complex dental jaws such as missing teeth,malocclusion and dentition crowding.The segmentation performance of the model was measured in terms of overall accuracy,mean intersection over union,and directional cut discrepancy. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The overall segmentation accuracy of this algorithm in the clinical data set is 97.08%,and the segmentation effect is superior to that of other competitive methods from the qualitative and quantitative perspectives.It is verified that the structural feature flow designed in this paper can extract more precise local details of tooth shape from coordinate and normal information by constructing an attention aggregation mechanism,and the spatial feature flow designed in this paper can ensure the robustness of the model to complex teeth such as missing teeth,dislocated teeth,and crowded dentition by constructing a transformation network(Tran Net).Therefore,this tooth segmentation algorithm is highly reliable for clinicians'practical reference.
RESUMEN
@#The high incidence and untreated rate of root caries, a common and frequently occurring oral disease with challenging treatment in elderly individuals, is the main cause of tooth loss among elderly people, as rapid development results in pulpitis and periapical periodontitis or residual crown and root, which has been regarded as one of the common chronic oral diseases seriously affecting the quality of life of elderly people. Thus, early intervention and prevention are important. Traditional dental materials for preventing root caries have been widely used in clinical practice; however, they have the disadvantages of tooth coloring, remineralization and low sterilization efficiency. A series of new dental materials for preventing root caries have gradually become a research hotspot recently, which have the advantages of promoting the mineralization of deep dental tissue, prolonging the action time and enhancing adhesion. Future caries prevention materials should be designed according to the characteristics of root surface caries and the application population and should be developed toward simplicity, high efficiency and low toxicity. This review describes current research regarding anti-caries prevention material application, serving as a theoretical underpinning for the research of root caries prevention materials, which is important for both promotion in the effective prevention of root caries and improvement in the status of oral health and the quality of life among old people.

BACKGROUND:Shikonin contributes to the promotion of bone defect repair and the treatment of osteoporosis. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the application potential of shikonin and its derivatives in oral soft and hard tissue regeneration. METHODS:A literature review was conducted in databases such as PubMed,Web of Science,Wanfang,China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),and VIP,spanning articles from 2002 to 2023.The search terms were"shikonin,oral cavity,periodontitis,antibacterial,bone formation,osteoclast,osteoporosis,toxicology"in Chinese and English. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Shikonin and its derivatives possess anti-inflammatory effects,inhibit periodontal pathogens such as Porphyromonas gingivalis,promote periodontal wound healing,and regenerate alveolar bone tissue.Shikonin formulations can be used to treat oral diseases such as aphthous ulcers and oral candidiasis.These findings suggest a promising future for shikonin and its derivatives in treating periodontal diseases,preventing oral ailments,and promoting the regeneration of both soft and hard periodontal tissues.Further research is needed to explore how to combine shikonin with tissue engineering to achieve quicker healing of oral soft and hard tissues.
RESUMEN
@#Oral plaque biofilms are one of the bases for the survival and metabolism of different bacteria. With the emergence of drug-resistant bacteria due to antibiotic abuse, the prevention and treatment of plaque biofilm-associated oral diseases are becoming increasingly difficult. Although some research progress has been made in the field of biofilm formation and destruction, there is still a lack of effective clinical therapies for plaque biofilm-associated oral diseases. Metal nanoenzymes possess the physical properties of nanoparticles and exhibit catalytic activity similar to that of natural enzymes. The nanoscale size of metal nanoenzymes provides a greater specific surface area to help reactive oxygen species spread rapidly to active catalytic sites and improve the antioxidant properties of nanoenzymes. Additionally, metal nanoenzymes are easy to produce using different methods, such as electrochemical reduction, solvent thermal synthesis and microwave-assisted synthesis. Moreover, metal nanoenzymes can produce a high concentration of hydroxyl radicals, catalyze plaque biofilm degradation, lyse glucan and inhibit biofilm formation by oxidative stress reactions, as well as kill bacteria by releasing metal ions. Thus, metal nanoenzymes are expected to become a new option for the prevention and treatment of oral plaque biofilm-associated diseases. However, metal nanoenzymes can enter organisms through oral, intravenous and respiratory routes, triggering potential toxic effects such as pulmonary toxicity, hepatotoxicity and neurotoxicity. In a complex biological environment, the occurrence of metal nanoenzymes toxicity may involve multiple mechanisms, and the mechanism of action and safety need to be thoroughly investigated. In this paper, we intend to describe the research progress on metal nanoenzymes through an overview of their properties, antibacterial mechanisms, biotoxicity and applications in the prevention and treatment of oral plaque biofilm-related diseases, which may provide new ideas for the prevention and treatment of these diseases.

BACKGROUND: Polysaccharide-based biomaterials are hydrophilic and can promote cell adhesion, proliferation and differentiation. They can not only effectively prevent against oral diseases, but also promote the regeneration of periodontal ligament, enamel and alveolar bone. OBJECTIVE: To review the application of chitosan-based polysaccharide biomaterial in many oral diseases. METHODS: A computer-based online search of PubMed and CNKI databases was performed to retrieve papers regarding application of chitosan-based polysaccharide biomaterial in oral diseases with the search terms “polysaccharide (chitosan or hyaluronic acid or cellulose) and oral disease” in Chinese and English. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Chitosan-based polysaccharide biomaterial can be used in periodontal, oral and maxillofacial systems, aesthetic restoration, orthodontics and other fields because chitosan has aminoglucan-like structure and the biological functions of cellulose and collagen, and possesses good biocompatibility. In the early stage of the disease, polysaccharide substance can prevent the occurrence of oral diseases and inhibit the accumulation of plaque microorganisms. During the repair period of the disease, polysaccharide substance itself can promote cell proliferation and differentiation, and has a good antibacterial effect. With the help of the specific efficacy of polysaccharide biomaterials, polysaccharide can effectively exert adhesion, antibacterial and regeneration effects. In addition, polysaccharides can also be digested to monosaccharides in vivo, which is good for tissue repair. In the future therapeutic field, the degradability, biocompatibility, easy availability, specific network structure, surface charge and other characteristics of the polysaccharide can be better utilized to expand the application range.

Se realizó un estudio observacional, descriptivo, de corte transversal desde enero hasta mayo de 2017 de 93 niños de 1-4 años matriculados en 5 guarderías infantiles no estatales del reparto Sueño de Santiago de Cuba, con el objetivo de identificar los factores riesgo que incidieron en las enfermedades bucales que presentaban. Para recoger la información se confeccionó una planilla elaborada a los efectos y realizó el interrogatorio a padres y niños, además del examen bucal a estos últimos. Entre los factores de riesgo prevalecieron la dieta cariogénica (96,7 %), seguida por el uso del biberón (59,1 %); asimismo, la maloclusión resultó ser la alteración más frecuente, principalmente el resalte aumentado y la mordida abierta. Aunque predominaron los pacientes sin afectación, estaban expuestos a dichos factores. Por tanto, se debe insistir en el diagnóstico precoz de las maloclusiones para minimizar o evitar su impacto negativo sobre la salud de los menores.
An observational, descriptive and cross-sectional study, of 93 children aged 1-4 years registered in 5 non-state daycare houses in Sueño neighborhood of Santiago de Cuba was carried out from January to May, 2017, with the objective of identifying the risk factors which influenced in the oral illnesses that they presented. To collect the information a schedule was made for this aim and an inquiry to parents and children was carried out, besides the oral examination to the last ones. Among the risk factors the cariogenic diet (96.7 %), followed by the use of the baby bottle (59.1 %) prevailed; also, the malocclusion turned out to be the most frequent disorder, mainly the increased prominence and the open bite. Although the patients without disorders prevailed, they were exposed to these factors. Therefore, it should be insisted in the previous diagnosis of malocclusions to minimize or to avoid their negative impact on the health of the children.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial and anti-caries effects of two plant extracts. The first chapter dealt with a review of the literature whose objective was to discuss the antimicrobial potential of Brazilian natural agents on the biofilm related to dental caries and gingivitis/periodontal disease. The research of the articles was carried out using PubMed. We found a total of 23 papers. Most of the studies were performed using planktonic microorganisms or under clinical trials. Nineteen articles were focused on cariogenic bacteria. From these nineteen articles, eleven were also about periodontopathogenic bacteria. Four studies addressed only periodontopathogenic bacteria. The most tested Brazilian natural agents were green propolis, essential oils of Lippia sidoides and Copaifera sp. Most of the tested agents showed similar results when compared to positive control (essential oils and extracts) or better effect than negative control (green propolis). More studies involving protocols closer to the clinical condition and the use of response variables that allows understanding the mechanism of action of natural agents are necessary before the incorporation of these natural agents into dental products. The second chapter aimed to test the effect of the hydroalcoholic extracts of Myracrodruon urundeuva All. and Qualea grandiflora Mart. leaves on the viability of the microcosm biofilm and on the prevention of enamel demineralization. The microcosm biofilm was produced on bovine enamel, using human saliva pool mixed with McBain saliva (0.2% sucrose) for 14 days. The biofilm was treated daily with the extracts for 1 min. M. urundeuva at 100, 10 and 0.1 µg/ml and Q. grandiflora at 100 and 0.1 µg/ml reduced cell viability similarly to the positive control and significantly more than negative control. M. urundeuva at 1000, 100 and 0.1 µg/ml were able to reduce the counting formation unit-CFU counting of lactobacilli sp. and Streptococcus mutans, while Q. grandiflora at 1000 and 1.0 µg/ml significantly reduced the S. mutans CFU counting. On the other hand, the natural extracts did not reduce the production of extracellular polyssacharides, lactic acid and the development of enamel caries lesions. The third chapter aimed to evaluate the effect of hydroalcoholic extracts of M. urundeuva and Q. grandiflora (alone or combined) on the viability of S. mutans biofilm and the prevention of enamel demineralization. S. mutans strain (ATCC 21175) was reactivated in BHI broth. Minimum inhibitory concentration, minimum bactericidal concentration, minimum biofilm inhibitory concentration and minimum biofilm eradication concentration were determined to choose the concentrations to be tested under the biofilm model. S. mutans biofilm (5x105 CFU/ml) was produced on bovine enamel using McBain saliva with 0.2% sucrose for 3 days. The biofilm was treated daily with the extracts for 1 min. M. urundeuva (isolated or combined) at concentrations equal or higher than 0.625 mg/ml was able to reduce the bacteria viability, whereas Q. grandiflora extract alone showed antimicrobial effect at 5 mg/ml only (p<0.05). On the other hand, none of the extracts was able to reduce the development of enamel caries lesions. Despite the tested natural extracts have antimicrobial effect; they are unable to prevent caries in enamel.(AU)
O objetivo foi avaliar os efeitos antimicrobiano e anti-cárie de dois extratos de plantas. O primeiro capítulo se referiu a uma revisão da literatura cujo objetivo foi discutir o potencial antimicrobiano dos agentes naturais brasileiros sobre o biofilme relacionado à cárie dentária e à gengivite/doença periodontal. A pesquisa dos artigos foi realizada usando o PubMed. Foram encontrados 23 trabalhos. A maioria dos estudos foi realizada utilizando microorganismos na fase planctônica ou ensaios clínicos. Dezenove artigos foram focados em bactérias cariogênicas. Dos dezenove artigos, onze também eram sobre bactérias periodontopatogênicas. Quatro estudos abordaram apenas bactérias periodontopatogênicas. Os agentes naturais brasileiros mais testados foram própolis verde, óleos essenciais de Lippia sidoides e Copaifera sp. Os agentes testados apresentaram resultados similares quando comparados ao controle positivo (óleos essenciais e extratos) ou melhor efeito que o controle negativo (própolis verde). Mais estudos próximos da condição clínica e o uso de variáveis de resposta que permitam entender o mecanismo de ação são necessários, para permitir a incorporação desses agentes naturais em produtos odontológicos. O segundo capítulo teve como objetivo testar o efeito dos extratos hidroalcoólicos de Myracrodruon urundeuva All. e Qualea grandiflora Mart. sobre a viabilidade do biofilme microcosmo e na prevenção da desmineralização do esmalte. O biofilme microcosmo foi produzido em esmalte bovino, utilizando pool de saliva humana misturada à saliva de McBain (0,2% de sacarose) durante 14 dias. O biofilme foi tratado diariamente com os extratos durante 1 min. M. urundeuva a 100, 10 e 0,1 µg/ml e Q. grandiflora a 100 e 0,1 µg/ml reduziram a viabilidade dos microrganismos de forma semelhante ao controle positivo e significativamente maior do que o controle negativo. M. urundeuva a 1000, 100 e 0,1 µg/ml foi capaz de reduzir a contagem de Unidade formadora de colônia-UFC para Lactobacilos totais e Streptococcus mutans, enquanto a Q. grandiflora a 1000 e 1,0 µg/ml reduziu significativamente a contagem de UFC para S. mutans. Os extratos naturais não conseguiram reduzir a produção de polissacarídeos extracelulares-PEC, ácido lático e o desenvolvimento da lesão cariosa em esmalte. O terceiro capítulo teve como objetivo avaliar o efeito dos extratos hidroalcoólicos de M. urundeuva. e Q. grandiflora (sozinhos ou combinados) sobre a viabilidade do biofilme de S. mutans e na prevenção da desmineralização do esmalte. Cepa de S. mutans (ATCC 21175) foi reativada em caldo BHI. Concentração inibitória mínima, concentração bactericida mínima, concentração inibitória mínima de biofilme e concentração de erradicação mínima de biofilme foram determinadas para escolher as concentrações a serem testadas sob o modelo de biofilme. O biofilme de S. mutans (5x105 CFU/ml) foi produzido em esmalte bovino, utilizando saliva de McBain com 0,2% de sacarose durante 3 dias. O biofilme foi tratado diariamente com os extratos durante 1 min. M. urundeuva (isolada ou combinada) nas concentrações iguais ou superiores a 0,625 mg/ml foi capaz de reduzir a viabilidade das bactérias, enquanto que o extrato da Q. grandflora apresentou efeito antimicrobiano somente a 5 mg/ml (p<0,05). Nenhum dos extratos reduziu o desenvolvimento da lesão da cárie. Apesar dos extratos naturais terem efeito antimicrobiano, são incapazes de prevenir o desenvolvimento da lesão cariosa em esmalte.(AU)

RESUMEN
Introducción: las enfermedades reumáticas se caracterizan por presentar una amplia gama de manifestaciones sistémicas. Sin duda alguna, la cavidad bucal es asiento de muchas de ellas, que incluso llegan a formar parte de los criterios diagnósticos de estas enfermedades. Objetivo: exponer las consideraciones sobre la relación existente entre afecciones bucales y enfermedades reumáticas. Métodos: se realizó una revisión sobre la relación entre afecciones reumáticas y manifestaciones bucales en Internet. La búsqueda abarcó artículos publicados en los últimos 5 años. Se evaluaron revistas de impacto de la Web of Sciencies, Scopus, Redalyc y Latindex relacionadas con el tema (37 revistas). Se consultaron las bases de datos de sistemas referativos, como MEDLINE, PubMed y SciELO con la utilización de varios descriptores tanto en inglés como en español. Se incluyeron artículos en idioma inglés, portugués y español. Se obtuvieron 77 artículos, se circunscribió el estudio a 49 que enfocaron esta temática de manera más integral. La revista que mayor representatividad del tema tuvo fue la Revista Cubana de Reumatología con 24,67 por ciento del total de artículos, el resto de las revistas se comportaron de manera uniforme. Análisis e integración de la información: existe estrecha relación entre las enfermedades bucales y las afecciones reumáticas. En ocasiones, las manifestaciones bucales constituyen criterios diagnósticos de las enfermedades reumáticas; las úlceras bucales, la xerostomía, la gingivitis y la afectación de la articulación temporomandibular son las de mayor incidencia. Conclusiones: las manifestaciones bucales pueden ser expresión del desorden reumático, pero también pueden inducir su aparición o ser los causantes de su descompensación. La presencia de procesos infecciosos así como la utilización de medicamentos con acción inmunosupresora y/o inmunomoduladora, son elementos que refuerzan aun más esta relación(AU)
Introduction: rheumatic diseases are characterized by a wide range of systemic manifestations. The oral cavity is home to many of these manifestations, which may even constitute diagnostic criteria for those diseases. Objective: describe the relationship existing between oral disorders and rheumatic diseases. Methods: a review was conducted on the Internet about the relationship between rheumatic diseases and oral manifestations. The search included papers published in the last five years. An evaluation was performed of high impact journals from the Web of Sciences, Scopus, Redalyc and Latindex which dealt with the subject (37 journals). Databases from reference systems such as MEDLINE, PubMed and SciELO were consulted with the aid of various search terms in English and Spanish. The papers included were in English, Portuguese and Spanish. Of the 77 papers obtained, the reviewers selected the 49 which approached the study subject in a more comprehensive manner. The journal with the highest presence of the topic was the Cuban Journal of Rheumatology, with 24.67 percent of the total papers. The remaining papers were evenly distributed among the other journals. Data analysis and integration: there is a close relationship between oral diseases and rheumatic conditions. Oral manifestations sometimes constitute diagnostic criteria for rheumatic diseases. Among the most common of these are mouth ulcers, xerostomia, gingivitis and temporomandibular joint disorders. Conclusions: oral manifestations may be the expression of rheumatic disorders, but they may also induce their emergence or be responsible for their decompensation. The presence of infectious processes, as well as the use of drugs with an immunosuppressive and/or immunomodulatory action, may further strengthen this relationship(AU)

At present, it has been regarded that oral disease was one of the most prevalent problems for people's general health around the world. Oral disease burden study focuses on the pressure and effect of oral diseases to the whole social economy and people's health. Oral disease burden, as a public health problem, needs to be attached importance in China and foreign countries. By means of retrieving the literature, this review article summarizes the progress of domestic and oversea studies on oral disease burden, analyses the epidemiological burden through the indicators such as the prevalence rate, decayed missing and filled teeth, disability adjusted life years, disability weights, and illustrates the economic burden of oral diseases by using part of the data. Results shows that the oral disease burden is obvious in most countries and regions both in China and foreign countries. The study of oral disease burden in China has not been well developed. Giving priority to dental caries, periodontal disease and tooth loss, the prevalence of oral diseases in China is high. The rate of seeking dental treatments is low and the proportion of self-supporting treatments is high. In general, the epidemiological and economic burden of oral diseases is heavier in China than that in the rest of the world.
RESUMEN
Background: Oral diseases are one of the most prevalent diseases in the world. About 100% population suffers from dental caries and 5-6% suffers from gingivitis. Increased consumption of tobacco and betel nut has led to a substantial increase in the number of patients suffering from oral cancer. Proper knowledge about the oral diseases can cure them and hence reduce the global burden. Aim: To know the awareness of oral diseases in Bhopal. Methods: All the faculty and clerical staff in Navin College were asked to fill in the questionnaire, information obtained was analyzed and tabulated. Results: Average awareness of the sample was found to be 84%. amongst the dental diseases 78% people were aware of dental caries and tooth mobility, 56% were aware of gingivitis while 80% people were aware of oral carcinoma. Conclusion: the results obtained concluded that most of the people knew quite well about oral and dental diseases.
RESUMEN
ABSTRACT Young swimmers are particularly susceptible to the onset of oral diseases. Objective To evaluate the oral health status in young competitive and non-competitive swimmers, involving an assessment of salivary cariogenic bacteria and secretory IgA (S-IgA) concentration. Material and Methods Before training sessions (T1), 54 competitive and 69 non-competitive swimmers had the following parameters assessed: decayed, missing, and filled teeth (DMFT), Plaque Index (PlI), and Gingival Index (GI). At T1 and after training sessions (T2), stimulated saliva was collected and microbiological and immunological analyses were performed. Results Competitive swimmers trained 2.02±0.09 hours 5 times a week, while non-competitive swimmers trained 2.03±0.18 hours a week. A total of 14.7% of competitive swimmers suffered dental trauma related to sports. Only 11.76% of the competitive swimmers took a daily dose of fluoride, against 32.65% of non-competitive swimmers (p=0.029). Neither group followed an established diet or presented statistically significant differences in terms of nutritional supplement drink and chocolate intake. There were statistically significant differences in terms of oral hygiene. No significant difference in clinical indexes (DMFT, PlI, and GI) was present. S. mutans was harbored by 18.6% of competitive and the 32.2% of non-competitive swimmers. S. sobrinus was detected in 22.03% of competitive and 91.6% of non-competitive swimmers (p<0.05). S. sanguinis was found only in the saliva of competitive swimmers. The average S-IgA of competitive swimmers decreased significantly at T2 (p<0.05). The pool water had a daily average pH of 7.22. Conclusions Microbial markers, immune status and sporting characteristics are important for establishing guidelines for management of training load in order to minimize physical stress and the risk of oral infection.

Objective To study the value of objective information transformation by analyzing oral diseases in outpa-tient department of our hospital and the diagnosis and treatment of oral diseases between expert clinic and outpatient clinic. Methods Oral diseases in over 50000 cases who visited the outpatient department of our hospital in 2015 were classified according to the ICD10 and analyzed by Pareto analysis. Results Dental carries, pulpitis, chronic periodontitis and dental crowding were the major diseases detected in outpatient department of our hospital, ac-counting for 80% of the total outpatients, and importance was thus attached to their treatment. Oral diseases re-ceived orthodontic therapy in expert clinic and received tooth implantation in outpatient clinic. Conclusion Hospi-tals should scientifically allocate their medical resources, strengthen the training of their young dentists, bring into full play of their limited medical resources according to the distribution of oral diseases in their outpatient depart-ments in order to meet the increasing demand of oral healthcare.
