BMC Oral Health
July 2023
Department of Advanced General Dentistry, Faculty of Dentistry, Mahidol University, 6 Yothi Rd. Ratchathewi, Bangkok, 10400, Thailand.
Background: Certain evidence indicated high prevalence of Candida in oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) and oral cancer (OC). This study was aimed to investigate the presence of Candida and its associated factors in participants who attended the oral cancer screening program in the lower northeastern districts of Thailand.
Methods: Convenient participants residing in the lower northeastern districts of Thailand who attended the oral cancer screening were enrolled.
Comparison of culture media and chairside assays for enumerating mutans streptococci.
J Appl Microbiol
June 2006
Department of Restorative Sciences, The University of Minnesota School of Dentistry, Minneapolis, MN, USA.
Aim: This study compared several traditional culture-based media and chairside cultural assays for ability to recover mutans streptococci (MS) from pure cultures and from saliva samples.
Methods And Results: When pure cultures were used with traditional culture-based media, mitis-salivarius bacitracin (MSB) agar demonstrated less support for bacterial recovery than trypticase-yeast extract-cysteine sucrose-bacitracin (TYCSB) agar and the modified medium of Ritz (HLR-S). One species of MS, Streptococcus ferus (c), was not recovered on MSB medium.

Kirikkale University Dental School, University of Kirikkale, Dental Faculty, Department of Operative Dentistry, Mimar Sinan Caddesi, Mediko Sosyal Binasi 25, 71100 Kirikkale City, Turkey.
Purpose: Immigrant junior-field-workers in south eastern Anatolia, Turkey, had an impact on agriculture economy, and to provide an optimal dental service is crucial due to their multiple medical and dental problems. So, a combined preventive-operative method including ART-fissure sealant/restoration and fluoride varnish application was evaluated in terms of caries increment, cariogenic bacteria and lesion behavior at one-year follow-up period.
Materials And Methods: A total of 27 children with 147 pit and fissure lesions displaying discoloration were included in this study.
Efficacy of a dip slide test for mutans streptococci in caries risk assessment.
Community Dent Oral Epidemiol
December 2001
Department of Restorative Dentistry, Faculty of Dentistry of Piracicaba, UNICAMP (University of Campinas), Avenida Limeira, 901, Areião, Piracicaba, São Paulo, Brazil.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of a dip slide test for mutans streptococci in caries risk assessment, when the microbiological results were compared to well-defined clinical criteria (DCC) for caries risk, clinically measured through high and low caries activity. Eighty-one volunteers from the 6th to 8th grades from public schools of Piracicaba, São Paulo, Brazil, were evaluated for dental caries. All free smooth surfaces were evaluated to check whether or not there were white spots.

The caries preventive outcome of a school-based program with salivary; lactobacillus counts as sugar-motivating tool was evaluated in six cohorts of totally 936 adolescents in a comprehensive school in Sweden. Students from a neighboring district with similar socioeconomic structure but with no corresponding dental health-promoting activities were selected as reference. The program started in the beginning of the 7th grade (13 years) and was terminated at the end of the 9th grade (16 years).
