[Model program for screening oral cancers in the Roma population].

Oral cancer has been identified as a significant public health threat. It is reported that about 3,800 new cases of oral cancer are diagnosed in Hungary each year with approximately 1,700 associated deaths. Oral cancer is the 6th most common cancer in men.

[Evaluation of clinical effects of amine fluoride/stannous fluoride containing toothpaste and mouthrinse].

The aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of amine fluoride (AmF)/stannous fluoride (SnF2) containing toothpaste and mouthrinse on gingival health of young adults. Altogether 42 persons participated in the study (mean age: 28.3 +/- 7.

Effect of amine fluoride/stannous fluoride toothpaste and mouthrinse on dental plaque accumulation and gingival health.

Objective: The aim was to investigate the influence of amine fluoride (AmF)/stannous fluoride (SnF2) containing toothpaste and mouthrinse on plaque accumulation and gingival health of young adults after 4 weeks use.

Subject And Methods: Forty-two young adults (mean age: 28.33 +/- 7.

The permeability of oral leukoplakia.

The significant increase in oral cancer mortality necessitates further research on the mechanisms of tumorigenesis. It was the aim of this study to compare the permeability, lipid composition and histopathological characteristics of oral leukoplakia with non-lesional specimens of the same region in 30 cases as well as 11 specimens originating from healthy control buccal mucosa. The permeability (Kp) of tissue biopsies to tritiated nitrosonornicotine was determined in a continuous through-flow perfusion system, lipids were extracted and identified by thin-layer chromatography, and thickness of epithelium and keratin layer assessed by histopathological methods.
