Factors associated with root surface caries in elderly.
The purpose of this study was to determine the risk factors for root surface caries in the elderly and to evaluate the factors associated with gingival recession, one of the main risk factors for root surface caries. A total of 153 elderly people (35 men, 118 women) aged between 60 and 94 years (73.5+/-7.5 years) were surveyed. All participants were relatively healthy elderly who did not need s...
متن کاملRelationship of cariogenic bacteria levels with periodontal status and root surface caries in elderly Japanese.
OBJECTIVE The relationship of the levels of cariogenic bacterial species with periodontal status and decayed root surfaces was investigated in elderly Japanese subjects. METHODS Three hundred and sixty-eight individuals (each 75 years old) were examined for periodontal status (pocket depth, attachment loss), root surface caries and salivary levels of mutans streptococci (MS) and lactobacilli ...
متن کاملHistopathology of root surface caries.
The histopathology of active and arrested human root caries was examined in extracted teeth by different optical methods. Significant differences were observed between the mechanisms operating on the various dental structures. Three different patterns of initial cementum and dentin lesions could be distinguished, depending on the severity of the cariogenic attack, the degree of sclerosis of the...

متن کاملThe metatranscriptomes of root caries and sound root surface biofilms
There is limited knowledge of bacterial metabolism in root caries lesions. The aim of this study was to describe the bacterial metatranscriptomes associated with root caries and sound root surfaces using an RNA-seq analysis approach. The biofilms from exposed root surfaces were sampled from caries-free volunteers (n=10), and from the infected dentine of volunteers with root caries (n=30). Total...
