    Notes: Abstract This study was designed to investigate, using 6 beagle dogs, the levels of selected putative pathogens in healthy sites, in gingivitis sites, and in sites with histologically confirmed attachment loss. Levels of attachment loss increased with increasing periods of ligation and reached a maximum of 0.15 mm at 57 days. Both histological attachment level and histological pocket depth were found to vary significantly with health/disease status (P〈0.0001). Higher numbers of total colony-forming units were seen for ligated sites than for healthy and gingivitis sites. Levels of Purphyromonas gingivalis and Prevotella intermedia also changed significantly with health/disease status (p〈0.001). These organisms showed their greatest increases at the time of the most intense attachment loss. Higher levels of Fusobaeterium nucleatum were seen in the gingivitis sites than in healthy or Heated sites. Low levels of Campylobacter rectus and Capnocytophaga spp. were detected throughout. The morphometric microbiological analysis revealed unexpectedly high %s of motile rods, while spirochetes were found in very low %s. The total number of bacterial cells detected using phase contrast microscopy was not found to vary significantly. None of the morphotypes were demonstrated as showing significant changes with health/disease status.

    Notes: Abstract. Experimental periodontitis was induced using ligatures in 6 beagle dogs over 57 days. Levels of elastase like activity in healthy sites, gingivitis sites, and in sites ligated for different time points were analyzed with respect to levels of histologically confirmed attachment loss. Attachment loss increased with increasing periods of ligation and reached a maximum of 0.15 mm at 57 days. Maximum loss of histological attachment was found to coincide with the period of maximum enzyme activity; during the first 7 days of ligature. Spearman correlation analysis of enzyme activity with attachment loss yielded a significant correlation (0.73, p=0.0396). The healthy and gingivitis sites were found to have minimal levels of enzyme activity throughout. Thus, this prospective study in beagle dogs found a relationship between histologically confirmed attachment loss and increased levels of elastase like activity indicating the probable usefulness of this parameter, either alone or in conjunction with other markers, for disclosing active periodontitis.

    Notes: This Supplement provides clear evidence that essential oil (EO) mouthwashes can be a beneficial, safe component of daily oral health routines. However, despite the wealth of supporting evidence, several issues are worthy of discussion. Patient compliance is a clear issue with oral home-care routines, and the emphasis is on dental professionals to communicate the importance of adherence. The reasons for each step of the oral-care routine (i.e. brushing, flossing, rinsing) should be clearly explained, and if required, additional motivation should be provided. Most mouthwashes contain denatured alcohol as a delivery vehicle, and some concern has been raised about the association of alcohol with oral cancer. However, a review by the Food and Drug Administration and American Dental Association found that the supporting evidence to date is inconsistent and contradictory. Some mouthwashes have a pH below 5.5, and some researchers believe that this can lead to tooth erosion. Studies have shown that although the pH of an EO mouthwash is below 5.5, salivary pH remains above 5.5 following rinsing and for 15 min postrinse.

    Notes: summary  The purpose of this study was to elucidate some of the factors on which accurate shade taking depends. Custom shade tabs (0·5, 1·0 and 1·5 mm porcelain thickness) were fabricated from selected Vita and Shofu porcelains. Four main factors were investigated, namely, the difference between the two types of porcelain used, the effect of light quality, the effect of porcelain thickness and the experience of the observer. The chi-square test for independence at a probability level of P 〈 0·05 was used to analyse the results. The results indicated that in ideal light there was no difference between the two porcelains (P=0·58). The experienced observers proved better than the novice observers in ideal light conditions (P=0·003). Thickness was also significant in the overall results (P=0·0001), in that thicker samples gave more accurate results. The results indicate that in adverse light, there was an overall difference between the two porcelains (P=0·046), but no difference between the experienced and novice observers. The thickness made no difference to the experienced or the novice observer in adverse light. These results indicate that the most influential factor on shade taking was the light quality (P 〈 0·0001); better results were obtained overall for the ideal light situation. In ideal light thicker samples gave better results (P=0·0001).

    Notes: This study was designed to study wound strength at the dentine/connective tissue interface and at the bone/connective tissue interface following full thickness flap surgery. Flaps of uniform dimension were outlined in four young adult beagle dogs using a standardised double bladed knife and vertical incisions 10 mm apart, which extended 8 mm apical to the gingival margin. Bone was removed from half the sites (eight sites in each dog), giving 32 flaps replaced on dentine and 32 sites on bone. A tensile force was applied using a microprocessor force gauge at 1, 2, 3, 7, 10, 14, 21, and 28 days. Mean tensile strengths were markedly weaker for the dentine/flap interface. At 7 days the value for flaps to dentine was 1.82 N, in contrast to 5.08 N for flaps replaced on bone. Inflammatory cell counts tended to fall markedly at 3 days for both modalities, but were higher for the dentine/flap modality at all time points. Fibroblast density peaked at 7–14 days but did not vary with type of flap over the time points studied. The amounts of fibrin were greater for the dentine/flap interface at all time points but decreased for both flap types as time progressed. Collagen type V was localised to the basement membrane and blood vessels and tended to show more foci for flaps replaced on dentine. Procollagen levels showed little change over the healing interval for both flap/bone and flap/dentine interfaces. Type III collagen synthesis was at peak levels during the first week. These findings would support efforts to stabilise periodontal flaps at early time points, especially those on dentine.

    Notes: The effect of a periodontal flap procedure, that included citric acid root conditioning and closure of the wounds by suturing of coronally elongated flaps, was studied in mandibular premolars and molars in monkeys. Three months in advance, to prepare for this regenerative procedure, every other tooth in the mandibular posterior segments was extracted and the alveolar bone level reduced to a level approximately 5 mm apical to the cemento-enamel junction around the remaining teeth. Histologic observations of biopsies removed 6 months after the regenerative surgery disclosed resorption of the treated root surfaces in the majority of specimens. Citric acid treatment of the root surfaces cannot have been primarily responsible for the resorption, as control surfaces, on which acid was not used, also displayed resorption. Resorption occurred most commonly on surfaces in which the junctional epithelium showed limited apical migration and was located 2 mm or more coronal to the apical extent of root planing.
