Antibiotic Prescription for Dental Procedures in Type 1 Diabetic Children.

Unlabelled: In diabetic patients, maintaining blood glucose levels as close to normal as possible is an objective in dental management especially in pediatric ones. Patients with poorly controlled diabetes are at greater risk of developing infections. Therefore, the prescription of antibiotics may be necessary for some dental procedures.

Biodentine™ Pulpotomy in Stage I primary Molars: A 12-month Follow-up.

Aim: This study aims to evaluate, over 12 months of clinical and radiographic follow-ups, the performance and outcomes of Biodentine™ pulpotomy in stage I primary molars.

Materials And Methods: A total number of 20 stage I primary molars requiring pulpotomy were selected from eight healthy patients aged between 34 and 45 months. Patients presenting a negative attitude toward dental treatment on the dental chair were scheduled for dental treatments under general anesthesia.

Treatments Performed on First Permanent Molars in a Sample of Lebanese Children: A Five-Year Retrospective Analysis.

Background: Dental caries remains one of the most prevalent worldwide chronic diseases and an expensive burden to healthcare services despite significant preventative measures Objective: Dental caries is a multifactorial chronic disease that occurs in early childhood and persists until adulthood. The first permanent molars (FPMs) are the earliest permanent molars to erupt what makes them vulnerable to caries among children and adolescents. Objective: The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of different types of treatments performed on FPMs in 7-10-year-old Lebanese patients.

Presentations of Routine Dental Interventions in Children over a Six-Year Period.

Aim: To evaluate over a six-year period, the prevalence of the dental procedures in primary and mixed dentitions, in males and females.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective descriptive study on dental treatments in primary and mixed dentitions was conducted in the Department of Pediatric Dentistry at the Faculty of Dental Medicine, Lebanese University, from 2015 to 2020. The total number of children was 1291.

Dental Treatment Effect on Blood Glucose Level Fluctuation in Type 1 Unbalanced Diabetic Children.

Unlabelled: Diabetic patients struggle to maintain their blood glucose near normal levels to avoid the occurrence of hypo- or hyperglycemia discomfort. Dental practitioners must foresee such complications as they can also take place during dental treatment.

Aim And Objective: This study aims to evaluate the impact of the type and duration of dental treatment on the blood glucose level (BGL) fluctuation in type 1 unbalanced diabetic children [hemoglobin A (HbA) >7].

Dental Treatment Effect on Blood Glucose Level Fluctuation in Type 1 Balanced Diabetic Children.

Introduction: Pediatric dentists, while treating diabetic patients, have a major concern about the occurrence of hypo- or hyperglycemia complications. So far, no dental care protocol is elaborated to help practitioners in creating a safe environment for their patients. This study aims to evaluate the blood glucose level (BGL) fluctuation in type 1 diabetic children according to the type of the delivered treatment and its duration, to outline guidance for predicting the occurrence of a hypo- or hyperglycemia complication.

Management of Bilateral Ectopically Erupting Maxillary Molars: A Case Report.

Background: Ectopic eruption of the permanent first molar is a common eruption disorder occurring during mixed dentition. The prevalence of this condition ranges from 3% to 4% in children. It is described as an abnormal mesioangular eruption path of the first permanent molar with a possibility of initiating the premature resorption of the distal root of the adjacent primary second molar.

Clinical and Radiographic Evaluations of Biodentine™ Pulpotomies in Mature Primary Molars (Stage 2).

Introduction: The preservation of the integrity and health of primary teeth and their supporting tissues is of great importance in maintaining arch length space, mastication, speech, and esthetics. A pulpotomy is a common therapy performed on a primary tooth presenting reversible pulpitis or a traumatic pulp exposure, allowing its conservation on the arch until its loss.

Aim: The study aims to clinically and radiographically evaluate the rates of success and efficacy of Biodentine™ as pulpotomy medicament exclusively on deciduous molars with complete roots formation (stage 2).

Evaluation of Biodentine Pulpotomies in Deciduous Molars with Physiological Root Resorption (Stage 3).

Introduction: Conservation of primary dentition is essential for maintenance of arch length, esthetic, mastication, speech and prevention of abnormal habits. The commonly supported treatment for retaining carious primary molars with affected pulp is pulpotomy.

Aim: The study aims to evaluate clinically and radiographically the rates of success and efficacy of Biodentine™ as pulpotomy medicament exclusively on primary molars with physiological root resorption.

Impact of Diabetes Mellitus Type 1 on Lebanese Families' Quality of Life.

Introduction: Diabetes mellitus type 1 (DM1) markedly alters the lives of individuals and their families. Family members can be affected by diabetes and its treatment, causing burden, distress, and reduced quality of life (QOL).

Objective: The aim of this research is to study the relationship between the diabetic child and the family members, to evaluate the stress and emotional issues between siblings, and to weigh in on the psychological, affective, and financial burden that parents have to deal with in their daily life.

Impact of General and Oral Complications of Diabetes Mellitus Type I on Lebanese Children's Quality of Life.

Introduction: Diabetes mellitus type I (DM1) has been increasing at an alarming rate worldwide. Children suffering from this chronic disease are subject to a high risk of systemic and oral complications, due to their young age and the lack of awareness of the relation between diabetes and oral health.

Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of oral and general complications of DM1 on the Lebanese children's quality of life.

Behavior of Lebanese Pediatricians regarding Children's Oral Health.

Aim: The aim of the study is to evaluate the behavior of Lebanese pediatricians regarding children's oral health.

Materials And Methods: A cross sectional study including 100 Lebanese pediatricians was performed. They answered 11 questions.

Awareness of Lebanese Pediatricians regarding Children's Oral Health.

Unlabelled: Pediatricians have an important role in early identification and prevention of oral health, but they reported lack of knowledge in this field.

Aim: the aim of the study is to evaluate the knowledge and attitudes of Lebanese pediatricians regarding children's oral health.

Materials And Methods: A cross sectional study including 100 Lebanese pediatricians was performed.
