The effect of controlled oral hygiene and topical fluoride application on caries and gingivitis in Swedish schoolchildren.

TL;DR: The results show that children given frequent oral prophylaxis combined with topical fluoride applications had clean teeth, only negligible signs of gingivitis, and practically no caries.
Journal ArticleDOI

The clinical and radiographic outcome of immediately loaded mini implants supporting a mandibular overdenture. A 3-year prospective study.

TL;DR: Clinical and radiographic peri-implant tissue responses of immediately loaded MDIs supporting a mandibular overdenture were favourable after 3 years, however, randomised, controlled clinical trials are needed to compare these responses to that of conventional-diameter implants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Psychological mood of regular dental attenders in relation to oral hygiene behaviour and gingival health.

TL;DR: This study examined the relationship between psychological mood, stress and oral hygiene behaviour in a group of 51 regular dental attenders and found that mean anxiety scores were associated with gingivitis level, and mean depression scores with plaque.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines in gingival crevicular fluid and serum of patients with rheumatoid arthritis and patients with chronic periodontitis.

Pregnancy gingivitis: History, classification, etiology

TL;DR: The histologic changes apparently do not arise from a single etiological factor, but are a manifestation of the altered nutritional and the metabolic status of the individual during pregnancy, and the immediate cause of the gingival changes appears to be a diminished utilization of estrogen or a modification of estrogen metabolism.
