Abstract: Abstract of thesis entitled Prevention and arrest of root surface caries in Chinese elders living in residential homes Submitted by Tan Haiping for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Hong Kong in July 2006 OBJECTIVES: The objectives of this prospective clinical trial were to describe and compare the effectiveness of four methods in preventing new root caries, and their effectiveness in arresting root caries in Chinese elders. METHODS: This study was a randomized controlled trial on institutionalized elders aged 60-89 years in Hong Kong. A baseline examination was conducted on elders living in 21 elderly homes. Status of their tooth roots was recorded. Elders having at least 5 teeth with exposed sound root surfaces and no serious medical problems were randomly allocated into one of four prevention groups: Group 1 - receiving individualized oral hygiene instruction (OHI) only; Group 2 - OHI and applications of chlorhexidine varnish every 3 months; Group 3 - OHI and applications of sodium fluoride varnish every 3 months; and Group 4 - OHI and annual applications of silver diamine fluoride (SDF) solution. Status of their root surfaces was assessed annually by a masked independent examiner. iRESULTS: 306 elders were examined at the baseline. After two years, 227 elders (74%) were reviewed. The mean numbers of root surfaces with new caries found at the two-year examination in Groups 1, 2, 3 and 4 were 2.00, 1.04, 0.89, and 0.72, respectively (ANOVA, p0.05). Elders receiving only OHI developed more new root caries surfaces (Scheff's multiple-comparison, p0.05), subjects receiving an annual application of SDF had more arrested root caries surfaces (Scheff's multiple-comparison, p

Abstract: Introduction: Silver diammine fluoride (SDF) has been found to be effective in preventing and in arresting dental caries in primary teeth. Clinical evidence to support its use for managing dental root caries in elders is limited. Besides, no clinical study has been conducted to reduce the staining caused by SDF on the arrested caries lesions. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of SDF in preventing and in arresting dental root caries in elders and to assess the effects of applying potassium iodide (KI) after SDF application on the color of arrested root caries lesions. Methods: This study was conducted among community-dwelling elders in Hong Kong. Elders who had at least 5 teeth with exposed root surfaces were randomly allocated into three intervention groups as follows: Group 1 - received oral hygiene instruction (OHI) and soda water (placebo control); Group 2 - received OHI and annual application of SDF solution; and Group 3 - received OHI and annual application of SDF solution followed immediately by KI solution. Status of the dental root surfaces was assessed clinically every 6 months by the same independent examiner. Color of the arrested root caries lesion was assessed using PANTONE color sheets. Results: A total of 323 elders (mean age=72.1) with 13499 sound exposed root surfaces were examined at baseline. Among them, 257 (79.6%) were followed for 30 months. The mean numbers of dental root surface with new caries found at the 30-month examination in Groups 1, 2, and 3 were 1.1, 0.4, and 0.6 respectively (ANOVA, pAmong the 323 elders, 83 elders with 157 root surfaces with active caries lesion were found at baseline. After 30 months, 67 (80.7%) elders with 100 (63.7%) root caries lesions were reviewed. The arrest rates of root caries at the 30-month examination were 45%, 90%, and 93% in Groups 1, 2, and 3, respectively (χ DEGREES2 test, PIn addition, the distributions of arrested carious lesions by color were not significantly different between the SDF and SDF/KI groups (Fisher's exact test, P>0.05). Conclusions: Annual topical application of either SDF solution or SDF/KI solution is effective in preventing and in arresting dental root caries among community-dwelling elders. The application of KI solution does not affect the effectiveness of SDF solution and also does not reduce the black staining caused by SDF solution.

Case reports and clinical trials conducted in various countries show, more and more frequently, a positive correlation between the presence of original teeth and prevalence of root caries in older age. Because this is a global trend, it is likely that the predicted increase in the worldwide elderly population may soon cause a significant increase in the number of people requiring effective means of preventing and treating root surface caries. In response to this development, a team of outstanding contributors has reviewed the most important aspects of root caries. This new volume presents their findings along with discussions of how to deal with this health issue that progressively affects the oral health balance. The chapters in this book are divided in four core parts: Epidemiology, Biological Determinants, Lesion Assessment and Features and Preventive and Operative Therapies. The collection of state-of-the-art articles provides a broad overview and will serve as a reference for clinicians as well as scientists and, hopefully, will encourage new research.

This book provides wide-ranging information on current clinical and scientific knowledge on the various aspects of fissure sealing. Trends in the epidemiology of caries are first examined, followed by thorough description of the morphology of pits and fissures and types of sealant. The role of sealants in the prevention of caries is discussed. Diagnostic parameters are presented, along with step-by-step descriptions of clinical procedures for fissure sealing. Chapters are also included on alternative techniques of fissure sealing, sealing of carious fissures, and therapeutic fissure sealing. The final chapter in the book focuses on the cost effectiveness of the procedure. Tooth surfaces with pits and fissures are particularly vulnerable to caries development. Sealants were developed to help manage these sites of the tooth and safeguard the surfaces from decay. This book has been written by acknowledged experts in the field. It will be of value for all dental professionals seeking to deepen their understanding of current knowledge on the science and the clinical application of pit and fissure sealants.

This book aims to define the etiological factors in dental caries and to guide the clinician towards methods of caries prevention that are evidence based. The coverage includes discussion of the active role of the biofilm and the oral environment and emphasizes the multifactorial etiology of dental caries. The opening chapters describe the early detection and diagnosis of dental caries, highlight the value of caries risk assessment to the patient, and explain the dynamic process of the demineralization–remineralization cycle. Information is presented on the action of fluoride, and the evidence relating to the use and effectiveness of remineralization agents and biomimetic materials is reviewed. Additionally, the effects of antimicrobials such as chlorhexidine and ozone are summarized. Further chapters focus on dietary counseling (with information on sweeteners and probiotics), the effectiveness of sealants in caries prevention, and resin infiltration. The philosophy of prophylaxis and ways to improve patient compliance and achieve proper mechanical plaque removal are discussed. The book is concluded with a chapter discussing preventive actions in representative cases.
