Purpose: This study investigateed the influence of complete denture on oral bacteria flora.
Methods: Bateria plaque samples in oral mucosa, saliva and denture surfaces in 11 edentulous patients were collected, then the 16S rRNA gene clone libraries were constructed. Pyrosequencing was used to analyze the 16S rRNA gene V3~V4 regions, oral bacteria flora were classified and identified.
Results: There were 64800 sequences in complete denture-wearing subjects, Streptococcus mitis, Gemella haemolysans, Rothia mucilaginosa, Porphyromonas sp, Neisseria zoodegmatis, Granulicatella elegans, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas citrinum, Granulicatella adiacens and Fusobacterium canifelinum were the predominant species (37416 sequences). The species of denture tissue surface were similar to these of buccal vestibule after wearing denture, and the species of denture smooth surface were similar to these of tongue ventrum and the floor of mouth.
Conclusions: The effect of complete denture on oral flora is still limited, and the composition of oral flora is influenced by many other factors.

Aim: This study aimed to identify factors associated with adolescents' knowledge, practices, and attitudes (KPA-OH) regarding oral health in the Rupa-Rupa district, a high jungle region of Peru.
Materials And Methods: An analytical study was conducted with a sample of 408 adolescents (aged 13-17 years) from seven public schools in the Rupa-Rupa district (elevation: 649 meters above sea level). The sample was stratified by sex, age, and school.

Background: Importance of fluoride in dental restorative materials for preventing secondary caries. Several commercially available tooth-colored dental restorative materials, such as glass ionomer cement, resin composites, and compomers were used for this study.
Aim: To evaluate the amount of fluoride release from tooth-colored restorative materials [Conventional Glass Ionomer Cement (GC Fuji II)], Resin-modified Glass Ionomer Cement (ACTIVA BioACTIVE-RESTORATIVE), and Giomer (BEAUTIFIL II LS)] using ion-selective electrode (ISE) and spectrophotometer using zirconyl alizarin red dye method.

Background: Bacteria in physiological environments can generate mineralizing biofilms, which are associated with diseases like periodontitis or kidney stones. Modelling complex environments presents a challenge for the study of mineralization in biofilms. Here, we developed an experimental setup which could be applied to study the fundamental principles behind biofilm mineralization on rigid substrates, using a model organism and in a tailored bioreactor that mimics a humid environment.

Aim: To assess the prevalence of tooth-related, soft tissue, and intraosseous pathologies in the pediatric population (0-17 years) in a South Indian dental teaching institution and to compare the results with previous literature.
Materials And Methods: Clinical data from the pedodontics department and histopathological records from the oral pathology department were analyzed from the year 2010 to 2022 and grouped into two major categories: group I, abnormalities of teeth, and group II, intraosseous and mucosal/soft tissue lesions. The data were entered into a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet, and descriptive analysis was conducted using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software, version 26.

Introduction: Osteonecrosis of the jaw resulting from the adverse effects of medical treatments is known as medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ). The knowledge of dental professionals about this condition is crucial in addressing it on a regional and global scale. This study aims to assess the knowledge and awareness of MRONJ among dental practitioners in Mumbai.
