    Notes: Abstract – The aim of the present study was to clinically evaluate fissure sealants on the occlusal fissures and buccal pits of permanent first and second molars after 20 and 15 years, respectively. The population consisted of 72 children, each of whom had had their four first molars sealed between 1977 and 1980. At the annual examinations, all caries-free, newly erupted second molars were sealed. When sealant was applied to the second molars, the first molars were checked and sealant was reapplied to those that had deficient sealants. At the follow-up, when the subjects were 26–27 years of age, 27 in the original group had moved from the community. Thus, the present result is based on 45 subjects. One hundred and fifty-three sealed first molars and 161 sealed second molars were available for inspection. At the follow-up examination of the first molars 20 years after sealant had been applied, 65% showed complete retention, 22% partial retention without caries, and 13% caries or restoration in the occlusal fissures or buccal pits. At the 15-year follow-up of the second molars, the corresponding figures were 65%, 30%, and 5%, respectively. Of the restored or carious molars, significantly more were found in the mandible than in the maxilla (P〈0.001). This longitudinal study showed that pit and fissure sealants – applied during childhood – have a long-lasting, caries-preventive effect.

    Notes: The effect of professional prophylaxis given each month to individual children was investigated. A total of 225 schoolchildren, 10–12 years of age, participated during the experimental year. Each prophylactic session required about 15 min, and included tooth-brushing instructions, professional tooth cleansings and fluoride rinses. Significantly fewer new interproximal carious lesions were obtained in the experimental group compared with the control group. No differences were observed for occlusal, buccal or lingual surfaces. The frequency of gingivitis was significantly reduced during the year of trial in the experimental group. The efficacy of the preventive treatment was most noticeable in children with high caries experience. For clinical practice monthly prophylaxes could be recommended to the most susceptible individuals.

    Notes: Abstract The aim of this investigation was to study caries development between the ages of 15 and 20 yr in the same individuals. Data concerning 100 adolescents constituted the basic material. Eighty subjects could be re-examined 5 yr after the first examination. The moan number of teeth per subject was 27.) both in 1973 and in 1978. Four subjects (4%) in 1973 and three subjects (2.4%) in 1978 showed no decayed and/or filled proximal tooth surfaces. The prevalence of intact tooth regions was higher in the mandible than in the maxilla. Only one of the 73 subjects who were free from caries in the mandibular incisor/canine region at the basic examination developed new carious lesions in this region during the next 5-yr period. Analysis of the frequency distribution of the different caries diagnostic groups revealed that 32 subjects (40%) showed no change during the 5-yr period while 47 (58.7%) now belonged to a higher caries prevalence group. 3538 (80.7%) proximal surfaces were diagnosed as intact at the basic examination. The number of intact surfaces 5 yr later was 3107 (70.9%). In individuals with low and high numbers of decayed and/ or filled surfaces, respectively, there was a tendency towards a more pronounced individual caries progression in the group that showed the highest caries prevalence at the basic examination than in the group showing a low caries prevalence.

    Notes: Abstract In the late seventies an increasing number of children showing extensive and severe idiopathic hypomineralization of the enamel of incisors and permanent first molars was reported within the Public Dental Services in Sweden. An epidemiologic study was initiated to analyze the prevalence, extension and severity in Swedish children born in 1970 and in the years before and after. 2252 children born in 1966–74 were examined according to well defined criteria on enamel hypomineralization. It was found that 15.4% of the children born in 1970 showed such changes. The corresponding figures for children born in 1966, 1969, 1971, 1972 and 1974 were 6.3, 7.3, 7.1, 5.2 and 4.4, respectively.

    Notes: Abstract – In 1973, a cross-sectional study on oral health status was performed on 1000 individuals in the age groups 3–70 years in Jönköping, Sweden. In 1983 and 1993, new cross-sectional studies were carried out in the age groups 3–80 years. The aim of the present study was to analyze caries prevalence and distribution in the three investigations 1973, 1983, and 1993 in the age groups 20–80 years. In the younger age groups (20–40 years), a larger proportion of individuals with good oral health was found in 1993 than in 1973 or 1983. A steady increase in the number of teeth in the age groups 40–80 years could be found, which was also reflected in the increasing number of decayed and filled tooth surfaces (DFS) in the same age groups. A marked decrease in proximal DFS in 20–50-year-olds in 1993 compared to 1973 and 1983 was found. However, a rather large and unchanging group of individuals suffering from severe caries was also observed. This situation demands an individualized caries treatment strategy based on risk assessment.

    Notes: Abstract – Four cross-sectional studies were carried out in 1973, 1978, 1983, and 1993 to collect clinical and radiographic epidemiological data on the dental health status of the inhabitants of Jönköping, Sweden. The aim of the present paper was to use these data to analyze trends in the development of caries among children and adolescents between 1973 and 1993. Approximately 500 randomly selected individuals evenly distributed among the age groups 3, 5, 10, 15, and 20 years participated in each study. The main results show that the numbers of caries-free individuals increased in all age groups. In 1993, the mean number of decayed and filled tooth surfaces in the primary (dfs) and the permanent (DFS) dentition in all age groups was less than half of that found in 1973. Most of this decrease took place during the first 5 years, i.e., between 1973 and 1978. Between 1978 and 1983, only minor changes were observed. There was a further reduction of approximately 30%–50% in dfs/DFS between 1983 and 1993 in 3-, 5-, 10-, and 20-year-olds. The frequency distributions of dfs/DFS for 5- and 15-year-olds revealed an increasing skewness over time: in 1993, a large majority of the children and adolescents had a low or moderate caries severity while only a small group had high scores of dfs/DFS.

    Notes: Abstract A total of 1370 children were examined for caries, gingivitis, periodontal pocketing, calculus and loss of marginal alveolar bone. The mean DFT and DPS scores were 6.2 and 8.7 for 11-yr-old children and 8.2 and 12.1 for 12-yr-olds. The average number of initial caries lesions was 12.4 among 11-yr-olds and 15.7 among 12-yr-olds. The proximal and smooth surfaces accounted for 37% of the total DPS score in the 11-yr-old children and 43% in the 12-yr-olds. The median DPS score for the 11-yr-old boys and girls was 7, while for the 12-yr-old boys it was 9 and for the girls 11. Only 1.8% of the children were free from caries. The occurrence of gingivitis, expressed by GBI, was 20 in both age groups. 8% of the children showed no advanced gingival inflammation, while less than 1 % had bleeding gingivitis at all examined surfaces. Supragingival calculus was found in 10% of the children. Neither periodontal pocketing nor loss of marginal alveolar bone was observed.

    Notes: The caries prophylactic effect of semi-annual applications of a fluoride-containing varnish (Duraphat®) was tested in 121 15-year-old children. The children were divided into a test (60 subjects) and a control group (61 subjects). The teeth of the children in the test group were coated with the fluoride varnish at the beginning of the experimental period and again 6 months later. A clinical and radiographic examination of all children was performed immediately prior to the first application of varnish and 1 year later. The mean caries increment was 0.9 new DMFS in the test group and 4.0 in the control group. The difference was statistically significant at the 0.1 % level. The caries prophylactic effect on different tooth surfaces was statistically significant both on proximal and on occlusal surfaces at the 0.1 % level. Analyzing the material with respect to the caries prophylactic effect against the background of caries prevalence at the start of the investigation showed a better effect in the group of children with low and medium initial DMFS values.

    Notes: Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the dental treatments under nitrous oxide-oxygen sedation carried out during 1 yr by the first 45 Swedish dentists trained at probationary courses in the use of the technique. Special emphasis was placed on evaluating the risk and incidence of side effects. Data from 1719 treatment sessions in 823 patients, mainly children, were analyzed. Standardized sedation technique was used and the maximum level of nitrous oxide administered was set at 60%. About 90% of the patients showed excellent or fair acceptance. Factors influencing the acceptance were the patient's age, history of psychiatric disorders, mental retardation and occurrence of side effects. In 4.5% of the treatment sessions the patient experienced side effects, e.g. restlessness, vomiting or nausea, during treatment and in 0.9% after the treatment session. The side effects were mainly mild. No correlation was found between side effects and the nitrous oxide concentration used, length of treatment, patient's age or health classification. It is concluded that nitrous oxide-oxygen sedation is an excellent and safe aid to dental care.

    Notes: The aim of the present investigation was to determine whether careful training in tooth-brushing had a prolonged effect on the oral hygiene and gingivae of 13-14 year-old school-children. Supervised tooth-brushing had continued for three years and ended one year before the final gingival and plaque scorings were carried out. A group of children of similar age and from the same school served as controls. The children of the control group had not been subjected to any form of supervised or controlled oral hygiene procedures. The gingival state and oral hygiene were recorded according to index systems proposed by Löe and Silness (1963) and Silness and Löe (1964). The examinations revealed that: During the years of supervised tooth-brushing, the experimental group had a significantly lower Gingival Index than the control group (GI experimental group 1965: 0.22, 1966: 0.24; GI control group 1965: 0.78, 1966: 0.95). One year after the end of the supervision, the Gingival Index of the experimental group was 0.47. The corresponding index for the control group was 0.66. This difference is not statistically significant. The deterioration of the gingival condition in the experimental group and the improvement in the control group can be explained by the poorer oral hygiene in the experimental group and the improved hygiene in the control group. The fact that the careful training in tooth-brushing had no prolonged effect on the gingivae indicates that this scheme failed to make the participating children tooth-minded. Possible reasons for the lack of effectiveness are discussed and improvements suggested.
