Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to assess dental caries, erosive tooth wear, and oral health habits among 12-year-old children in Hong Kong through a cross-sectional survey.
  • A total of 445 children were recruited, with 396 participating, showing that 18% had caries experience, with a mean DMFT of 0.29.
  • Most children exhibited no signs of erosive tooth wear, but those consuming acidic drinks frequently had higher wear scores, while the majority maintained good oral hygiene practices like daily tooth brushing.

Article Synopsis
  • A 12-year study at the Ste. Sophie landfill in Québec analyzed how municipal solid waste (MSW) stabilizes in cold climates, focusing on temperature changes and waste settlement over time.
  • The study found that there is a 12-18 month delay in temperature rise during the filling phase due to the freezing conditions affecting the waste.
  • A thermal-mechanical-biological (TMB) model was created to simulate the stabilization process, allowing for better prediction of MSW behavior and optimizing landfill operations by ensuring waste is stabilized before applying a final cover.*
