Aims The first aim was to describe the energy, carbohydrate and sugar contents of formula milk products in eleven countries. The second was to assess the labelling methods used. Based on the findings, approaches to facilitate the selection of infant-appropriate formula milk products were proposed.Background Consumption of excess sugar during infancy can increase the risk of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) including obesity, diabetes and dental caries. Reduction of sugar consumption has been high on the global public health agenda. Although most infants are fed formula milk products in addition to, or instead of, breastmilk (with only 38% exclusively breastfed), the sugar content of these products is often not included in sugar reduction strategies.Methods An exploratory study was conducted to describe the labelling and nutritional composition of a sample of infant formula products available in 11 countries. The sample, which was collected between May and August 2019, included commercially available formula p their infants.Objectives To evaluate the clinical-effectiveness of oral splints for patients with TMD or bruxism for the primary outcomes pain (TMD) and tooth wear (bruxism).Data sources Four databases including MEDLINE and EMBASE were searched from inception until 1 October 2018.Data selection and extraction Randomised controlled trials comparing all types of splints versus no/minimal treatment for patients with TMD or bruxism were eligible. Standard Cochrane review methods were used. Standardised mean differences (SMD) were pooled for the primary outcome of pain, using random effects models in TMD patients.Data synthesis Thirty-seven trials were included and the evidence identified was of very low certainty using GRADE assessments. When all subtypes of TMD were pooled into one global TMD group, there was no evidence that splints reduced pain SMD (up to 3 months) -0.18 (95% CI -0.42 to 0.06); 13 trials, 1,076 participants. There was no evidence that any other outcomes improved when using splints. There was no evidence of adverse events associated with splints, but reporting was poor regarding this outcome. No trials measured tooth wear in patients with bruxism. There was a large variation in diagnostic criteria, splint types and outcome measures used and reported. Sensitivity analyses based on these factors did not indicate a reduction in pain.Conclusions The very low-certainty evidence identified did not demonstrate that splints reduced pain in TMD as a group of conditions. There is insufficient evidence to determine whether splints reduce tooth wear in patients with bruxism.Introduction The Crisis at Christmas Dental Service (CCDS) provides dental treatment for homeless and vulnerably housed people each year during the Christmas period. In 2017, Den-Tech piloted a same-day field-laboratory denture service alongside CCDS to provide new dentures, additions and repairs for people experiencing social exclusion who have limited access to dental care.Objectives To evaluate the service in terms of (i) treatment need for denture service; (ii) patient-reported feedback; (iii) clinician-reported feedback; and (iv) learning outcomes from the pilot denture service.Methods Clinicians recorded their dental activity on a standard pro forma and records of the dentures were maintained by the Den-Tech volunteer laboratory technicians. Patient feedback was collected on standardised feedback forms at the dental reception and volunteer feedback was collected via an online survey. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/ots964.html The team undertook a quality improvement evaluation using the Plan-Do-Study-Act methodology.Results During the seven-day treatment period in 2017, 24 dentures were produced by the Den-Tech technicians, and in 2018, 31 dentures were created for people experiencing homelessness. In 2017, feedback was collected from 353 patients who attended the service 99.4% were satisfied with their treatment and 98.3% would have recommended the service to others. Similarly, high levels of positive feedback were received in 2018. Of the dental volunteers who responded, 97.8% of volunteers felt that the denture service benefitted the patients.Conclusions The Den-Tech denture service was well-received by patients and volunteers alike. For the first time at Crisis at Christmas, patients were able to have dental extractions and immediate replacement of these teeth without compromising their dignity and overall appearance.Learning outcomes A quality improvement project utilising real-time volunteer and patient feedback can be a useful tool in reflecting upon the challenges and successes of a service as well as supporting its continual development.Background Heart transplants have become a successful treatment for some cardiovascular diseases. To prevent rejection of the transplanted heart, patients have to take immunosuppressive medication.Aims The aims of this study were to identify and review oral health complications after heart transplantation.Methods The electronic database PubMed was searched for relevant articles. The search yielded 332 papers, of which 24 matched the criteria for this review.Results Gingival hyperplasia was observed in 8.3-67% of the patients. Heart transplant patients who received professional periodontal treatment starting six months after transplantation showed significantly better scores on the Gingival Index (GI) and gingival hyperplasia. In comparison to a control group, heart transplant patients did not differ significantly in the DMF(T) index. The incidence of fungal infection in patients receiving a heart transplant varied between 10% and 25%. Heart transplant patients had a 4.3 times higher chance of developing oral cancer.Conclusion Patients who underwent a heart transplant and subsequently used immunosuppressive medicines appear to have a higher risk of gingival hyperplasia, periodontal conditions, the presence of Candida species and oral malignancies, in comparison to healthy individuals. The association between heart transplants and dental caries was unclear. It is recommended that heart transplant patients receive frequent oral examination and professional dental cleaning.
