Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the median survival time of fixed and removable space maintainers related to age groups, gender, and their distribution in upper and lower dental arches. The adherence of patients to a periodic recall program and the success rate of different types of space maintainers related to different arches were also evaluated. This study included 663 patients aged between 4-15 years old that were treated between the years of 1997 and 2002. The patients were categorized into four main groups: lost to follow-up, failed, successful, and censored at the end of study. Three hundred forty-five space maintainers were considered lost to follow-up, 83 were considered failed, 206 successful, and 20 censored-at-end. The overall median survival time of the appliances was 6.51 months. Median survival time was 7.25 months in the 4-6 age group, 6.35 months in the 7-12 age group, and 7.0 months in the 13+ age groups. Median survival time was 5.76 months in girls and 7.11 months in boys. Median survival time of space maintainers was 7.17 months for maxilla and 6.69 months in the mandible. Median survival time was 5.25 months for space maintainers fabricated in both arches. Citation Tulunoglu Ö, Ulusu T, Genç Y.

BACKGROUND: Dental caries is one of the most common diseases around the world. The newly erupted permanent posterior teeth are at great risk due to the complex occlusal morphology of pits and fissures, infraocclusion and incomplete maturation of enamel. Pit and fissure sealants are the treatment of choice in such conditions. OBJECTIVES: To compare the successful outcome of pit and fissure sealants bonded with etch-and-rinse adhesive system and self-etch adhesive systems in newly erupted permanent first molars. METHODS: This randomized clinical trial was conducted at the Fatimah Jinnah Dental Hospital from June 2017 to May 2019. Children aged between 6 to 9 years who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were recruited for this study after parents’ consent. Patients were randomly divided into two groups by the lottery method. Thirty patients with 60 first molar teeth in Group A were treated with etch-and-rinse adhesive system, while the other thirty patients with 60 first molar teeth in Group B were treated with self-etch adhesive system. After adhesive placement, all children received the same fissure sealants in newly erupted maxillary and mandibular permanent first molar. Each group was clinically evaluated at 6 and 12 months follow-up visit. Modified United States Public Health Service (USPHS) criteria were used for direct clinical evaluation of successful outcomes such as sealant retention and marginal discoloration. RESULTS: Successful outcome was statistically significant in Group B compared to Group A (60% vs. 30% p= 0.020) at 12 months follow-up. Stratification analysis was performed with respect to age in which a successful outcome was not significant (p= 0.43) between groups for 6 to 7 years of age, while it was significant (p= 0.012) between groups in 8 to 9 years of age children. CONCLUSION: Self-etch adhesive system is better than etch-and-rinse adhesive system in terms of long-term sealant retention. In addition, the bonding procedure is simple with relatively short clinical application time therefore it would offer great benefit to clinicians in treating pediatric patients.

Insight Into

Heroin detoxification has been used as a primary tool for the treatment of heroin addicts for almost as long as heroin addiction has been recognized as a problem. However, there is minimal evidence to justify the continued use of this treatment modality. This paper reports on a three year follow-up study of forty-three heroin addicts who received detoxification services with a startling success rate of only 2%. The authors also provide some insight into the reasons why heroin detoxification has not proven to be a successful means of treatment.
