Translation and validation of the French version of the child perceptions questionnaire for children aged 11 to 14 years old (CPQ11-14) short-form.

Objectives: The COHQoL is a set of questionnaires used to evaluate the impact of oral health on children's quality of life. Although the CPQ8-10 and the P-CPQ have been translated and validated in French, the CPQ11-14 14 has not yet been validated. The aim was to develop a French version of the CPQ11-14 16-items.

Oral Prosthetic Rehabilitation in Patients with Epidermolysis Bullosa Hereditaria: A Systematic Review.

Purpose: To review the oral prosthetic rehabilitation of patients with epidermolysis bullosa hereditaria (EBH) and study the level of evidence and quality of the presented available articles and establish clinical recommendations for the prosthetic management of these patients.

Materials And Methods: An electronic search was done in July 2022 in five databases following PICOTS elements. The quality of the reports was established using the modified Pierson, Bradford Hills, and Ottawa Newcastle scale.

Implant retained prosthesis on a free fibula flap: A challenging procedure for prosthetic and soft tissue management.

A 39-year-old woman who had undergone fibular flap reconstruction and simultaneous implant placement after the surgical removal of a cemento-ossifying fibroma was experiencing mild discomfort 3 years later and requested an implant-supported prosthesis to restore her edentulous left maxillary quadrant. Initially, an interim removable partial denture was provided and later duplicated with clear resin. The interim prosthesis identified the excessive thickness of the grafted cutaneous soft tissue and the inadequate emergence angle of the nonfunctioning implants.

Determinants of dental care use in patients with rare diseases: a qualitative exploration.

Background: Oral health is an inherent part of overall health as an important physiological crossroad of functions such as mastication, swallowing or phonation; and plays a central role in the life of relationships facilitating social and emotional expression.Our hypothesis was that in patients with rare diseases, access to dental care could be difficult because of the lack of professionals who know the diseases and accept to treat the patients, but also because some patients with cognitive and intellectual disabilities could not find adequate infrastructure to assist in managing their oral health.

Methods: This study employed a qualitative descriptive design including semi-structured interviews using guiding themes.

The Smart Data Extractor, a Clinician Friendly Solution to Accelerate and Improve the Data Collection During Clinical Trials.

In medical research, the traditional way to collect data, i.e. browsing patient files, has been proven to induce bias, errors, human labor and costs.

Consideration of oral health in rare disease expertise centres: a retrospective study on 39 rare diseases using text mining extraction method.

Background: Around 8000 rare diseases are currently defined. In the context of individual vulnerability and more specifically the one induced by rare diseases, ensuring oral health is a particularly important issue. The objective of the study is to evaluate the pattern of oral health care course for patients with any rare genetic disease.

Full-mouth rehabilitation choices depending on amelogenesis imperfecta's type: A familial case report.

Amelogenesis imperfecta, a rare disease, represents inherited, congenital defects that primarily affect enamel with esthetic and functional impairment affecting everyday life. We present oral rehabilitation of a mother and her son, respectively, suffering from an hypoplastic and an hypocalcified form of AI.

Oral health-related quality of life in patients with X-linked hypophosphatemia: a qualitative exploration.

Introduction: X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is a rare, hereditary, and lifelong phosphate-wasting disorder characterized by rickets in childhood and impaired teeth mineralization. In the oral cavity, spontaneous abscesses can often occur without any clinical signs of alteration of the causal tooth. The objective of our study was to evaluate the oral care pathway and the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) of patients following in an expert oral medicine department located within a Parisian hospital and working in close collaboration with an endocrinology department expert in this pathology.

Elements of morphology: Standard terminology for the teeth and classifying genetic dental disorders.

Dental anomalies occur frequently in a number of genetic disorders and act as major signs in diagnosing these disorders. We present definitions of the most common dental signs and propose a classification usable as a diagnostic tool by dentists, clinical geneticists, and other health care providers. The definitions are part of the series Elements of Morphology and have been established after careful discussions within an international group of experienced dentists and geneticists.

Technical Report: Crown Fabrication Without an Impression.

Prosthetic treatment for elderly patients is a challenge that addresses both patient- and technology-mediated dental concerns. This report describes the fabrication of a cobalt-chromium crown without an impression using a digitized and scanned temporary crown to provide excellent integration.

Clinical Appraisal of the WAM'X Super Quick Post-and-Core Removal Device.

This report describes an innovative technique to remove post-and-core restorations. The WAM'X Super Quick post removal device permits a secure mechanical traction technique that can adapt to variable root angulations. Pivoting prongs mounted on forceps allow post removal while preserving the ferrule effect to improve resistance to fractures.

Management of rare diseases of the Head, Neck and Teeth: results of a French population-based prospective 8-year study.

Background: In the last ten years, national rare disease networks have been established in France, including national centres of expertise and regional ones, with storage of patient data in a bioinformatics tool. The aim was to contribute to the development and evaluation of health strategies to improve the management of patients with rare diseases. The objective of this study has been to provide the first national-level data concerning rare diseases of the head, neck and teeth and to assess the balance between demand and supply of care in France.
