Caries risk assessment in practice for age 6 through adult

Featherstone, John D B; Domejean-Orliaguet, Sophie; Jenson, Larry; Wolff, Mark; Young, Douglas A
The aim of this article is to present a practical caries risk assessment procedure and form for patients who are age 6 through adult. The content of the form and the procedures have been validated by outcomes research after several years of experience using the factors and indicators that are included

Efficacy of sub-antimicrobial dose doxycycline in post-menopausal women: clinical outcomes

Reinhardt, Richard A; Stoner, Julie A; Golub, Lorne M; Wolff, Mark S; Lee, Hsi-Ming; Meinberg, Trudy A; Lynch, James C; Ryan, Maria E; Sorsa, Timo; Payne, Jeffrey B
AIMS: To determine the clinical efficacy of a 2-year continuous sub-antimicrobial dose doxycycline (SDD; 20 mg bid) in post-menopausal, osteopenic, oestrogen-deficient women on periodontal maintenance. MATERIALS AND METHODS: One-hundred and twenty-eight subjects were randomized to SDD (n=64) or placebo (n=64). Clinical measurements were performed at posterior interproximal sites at baseline and every 6 months during this 2-year randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial with adjunctive, no-cost 3-4-month periodontal maintenance. Statistical analyses of secondary outcomes from this clinical trial used Generalized Estimating Equations in primarily intent-to-treat analyses. RESULTS: For the placebo group, 3.4% of the sites showed improvement in clinical attachment levels (CAL) and 2.7% had progressive loss in CAL; for the SDD group, 5.0% of the sites showed an improvement in CAL and 2.2% had progressive loss in CAL. This difference (2.1% of sites) was more favourable in the SDD group than in the placebo [odds ratio (OR)=0.81 [corrected] 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.67-0.97, p=0.03] in these well-maintained patients, whereas probing depths, bleeding on probing and supragingival plaque did not differ significantly between groups (p>0.2). However, in exploratory subgroup analysis of non-smokers, SDD showed reduced bleeding versus placebo (27%versus 33%; p=0.05). In protocol-adherent subjects, the odds of bleeding were 34% lower for SDD (p=0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Analyses of secondary outcomes of this clinical trial indicated that SDD may be of benefit in reducing progressive attachment loss in post-menopausal females; additional research is needed to confirm these findings.

Subantimicrobial dose doxycycline effects on alveolar bone loss in post-menopausal women

Payne, Jeffrey B; Stoner, Julie A; Nummikoski, Pirkka V; Reinhardt, Richard A; Goren, Arthur D; Wolff, Mark S; Lee, Hsi-Ming; Lynch, James C; Valente, Robert; Golub, Lorne M
AIM: Determine the efficacy of 2-year continuous subantimicrobial dose doxycycline (SDD; 20 mg bid) on alveolar bone in post-menopausal osteopenic, oestrogen-deficient women undergoing periodontal maintenance in a 2-year double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial. MATERIAL AND METHODS: One-hundred and twenty-eight subjects randomized to SDD or placebo (n=64 each). Posterior vertical bite wings taken at baseline, 1 and 2 years for alveolar bone density (ABD), using radiographic absorptiometry (RA) and computer-assisted densitometric image analysis (CADIA), and alveolar bone height (ABH). Statistical analyses utilized generalized estimating equations; primary analyses were intent to treat (ITT). Results are presented as SDD versus placebo. RESULTS: Under ITT, there was no statistically significant effect of SDD on ABD loss (RA: p=0.8; CADIA: p=0.2) or ABH loss (p=0.2). Most sites (81-95%) were inactive. For subgroup analyses, mean CADIA was higher with SDD for non-smokers (p=0.05) and baseline probing depths > or =5 mm (p=0.003). SDD was associated with 29% lower odds of more progressive ABH loss in women >5 years post-menopausal (p=0.05) and 36% lower among protocol-adherent subjects (p=0.03). CONCLUSIONS: In post-menopausal osteopenic women with periodontitis, SDD did not differ overall from placebo. Based on exploratory subgroup analyses, additional research is needed to determine the usefulness of SDD in non-smokers, subjects >5 years post-menopausal and in deeper pockets.

A 100-year journey from GV Black to minimal surgical intervention

Wolff, Mark S; Allen, Kenneth; Kaim, James
Over the past 140 years, dentistry has matured from the original tenets of GV Black by moving from 'extension for prevention' to a minimal intervention approach. This is part of an evolution that stresses a medical, rather than a surgical model for caries management. This transition has been facilitated by the introduction and advancement of adhesive dentistry, which encourages preservation of tooth structure. Even with these changes, some of the original writings of Black are still relevant today: 'The day is surely coming...when we will be engaged in practicing preventive, rather than reparative, dentistry.'
