Influence of smoking heating up tobacco products and e-cigarettes on the microbiota of dental plaque.

Unlabelled: Electronic nicotine delivery devices (ENDDs) are getting more and more popular among adolescents and young people under 25, signifying the beginning of tobacco product use for many of them. The state of the local microbiota can be affected by a large number of factors, namely the inhaled aerosol temperature, the oral cavity ph, the diet nature, genetics, etc.

Aim: The aim of the study was to identify the changes of dental microbiocenosis among adolescents who use devices for heating tobacco products and vape.

Peculiarities of vascular endothelial growth factor of oral cavity in atopic condition VEGF of oral cavity in atopic condition.

Background And Aims: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is regarded as a potent stimulating factor for angiogenesis and vascular permeability and probably is connected with an inflammatory reaction. Our study aimed to determine the effect of VEGF in the inflammatory process in the oral mucosa of experimental animals in the modulation of atopic disease.

Materials And Methods: Atopic condition was simulated by the ovalbumin model.

The Epidemiologic Aspects of COVID-19 Outbreak: Spreading Beyond Expectations.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak started in late 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei Province of China, and quickly spread to the surrounding regions and neighboring countries. A novel coronavirus, the so-called severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), was found to be responsible for this outbreak potentially originating from pangolins. In China, the outbreak lasted for 1 month until it seemed to be controlled after affecting over 81,000 individuals and causing deaths in over 4200 patients.

Application of estimated oral health indices in adolescents with tobacco addiction.

Unlabelled: It is known that every day 2,500 children under the age of 18 try their first cigarette, and more than 400 of them become new, regular smokers, and half of them will die from this addiction in the future.

Aim: The aim of the study is to determine changes in the indices of dental status in adolescents with tobacco smoking.

Materials And Methods: The study involved 54 adolescents aged 12 to 18 years.

Features of the morphological state of bone tissue of the lower wall of the maxillary sinus with the use of fixed orthodontic appliances.

Aim: The aim of the study was to identify the consequences of the use of fixed otrhodontic appliances (FOAs) on the morphological state of the tissues of the lower wall of the maxillary sinus, depending on the duration of their use.

Materials And Methods: The study involved 115 male and female patients aged 18 to 25 years. All patients were divided into 2 research groups depending on the period of wearing brace systems.

Salivary oxidative analysis and periodontal status in children with atopy.

Background And Aims: Prevalence of atopic diseases is progressively increasing in children with unclear clinical picture in oral cavity. This study aimed to find correlation between the total antioxidant and periodontal status in the saliva of periodontally compromised with atopy.

Materials And Methods: The groups consisted of patients of atopic diseases and gingivitis (ADG), of atopic diseases without gingivitis (AD), and healthy controls (HC).
