The prerequisites provided by Achinstein insufficiently capture all of the evidential relationships. Here it is important to look for prerequisites that cover the whole landscape and demarcate it into sensible divisions. Reiss (2015) argues that a theory of evidence should be informative about how to gather evidence and when to be justified in believing a hypothesis on the basis of evidence in non-ideal scenarios as well as ideal ones. He puts forward four desiderata for a theory of evidence. It…
Bacterial plaque that accumulates subgingivally is the primary factor in periodontal disease.9 Gingivitis is the mildest form of periodontal disease. When gingivitis remains untreated, it can advance to periodontitis. At this point, bone loss occurs and in some cases, moderate-to-advanced periodontitis can occur causing further destruction of the bone.6 Several studies have shown that the use of tobacco, especially cigarette smoking, has caused an increased prevalence of periodontal…
The effects of the catecholamines epinephrine and norepinephrine on different anaerobic bacteria are given in Figure 1. 3.2.1. Change in bacterial gene expression Important effect of the catecholamines is the change in bacterial gene expression. Saito et al. [29] observed the effect of catecholamines on P. gingivalis virulence factor expression by a microarray and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The addition of norepinephrine resulted in a decrease in P. gingivalis…
restorative procedures, an open restoration margin or the development of caries, leading to the pulp becoming inflamed due to the ingress of bacteria from the surrounding oral cavity, if left untreated it can cause pulpal death and lead to apical periodontitis (Mjór, 2002). Intervention in inflamed…
Symptoms of gingivitis include: red, swollen gums that bleed during brushing or flossing. If left untreated, gingivitis leads to periodontitis. Once gingivitis transitions into periodontitis, pockets of bacteria develop around the teeth and these bacteria begin destroying the jawbone. As these pockets continue filling with bacteria, jawbone deterioration begins, which leads to the teeth becoming loose and the…
your night-time grinding problems. 3. Neglecting gums by not brushing and flossing properly and getting regular checkups can cause a gum disease called gingivitis. In gingivitis, your gums become inflamed which can lead to an infection called periodontitis. If left untreated, gingivitis can cause loss of tissue and bone that supports teeth and cause gum recession. Tooth sensitivity will be the first indication that you have a serious dental health issue. 4. Not brushing enough can lead…
In the experimental periodontitis groups, systemic kaempferol (10 mg/kg/2d) and saline were administered by oral gavage at two different periods (with and without the presence of dental biofilm) to all rats except for the ten non-medicated rats. Alveolar bone area, alveolar bone…
that the character had been in a place with little water, hygiene needs, and change of clothing. Not only were the costumes convincing, but the make-up pin pointed the time line. After bringing John out of the jail, you could see the signs of periodontitis. The other prisoners, along with john, were covered in dirt and had matted hair. Their wrists were all scarred and cut up where the cuffs had been and showed signs of little…
Oral Hygiene Aids AbdulJabar Ali Almani 17 oct, 2016 M011442005 Alwaleed2016@yahoo.com Oral hygiene is a tool used to clean teeth and mouth from dental plaque (material alba) to get excellent hygiene. Gingivitis, periodontitis, caries and halitosis are the most common problems will be formed if not that occur if oral hygiene instructions are not followed . In addition, visit dental clinics twice a year There are many types of oral hygiene aids for home care Dental floss Dental floss is the…
soft tissue inflammation and sequestration in various animal models, ranging from rats to large animal models like sheep. 16,17,23 However, the exposure of bone to the oral environment, either through a tooth extraction, artificially induced periodontitis, or repeated trauma is a pre-requisite for the initiation of BRONJ lesion in animal models. 24-27 The use of SD rats to develop a BRONJ model by mimicking human dosage and regimen was reported by Sonis et al (2009) whereby it was used in…
