Introduction. Plant extracts may be suitable alternative treatments for caries. Aims. To investigate the in vitro and in vivo antimicrobial effects of Plantago lanceolata herbal tea (from flowers and leaves) on cariogenic bacteria and to identify the major constituents of P. lanceolata plant. Materials and Methods. The MIC and MBC against cariogenic bacteria were determined for P. lanceolata tea. Subsequently, a controlled random clinical study was conducted. Group A was instructed to rinse with a P. lanceolata mouth rinse, and Group B received a placebo mouth rinse for seven days. The salivary colonisation by streptococci and lactobacilli was investigated prior to treatment and on the fourth and seventh days. Finally, the P. lanceolata tea was analysed for its polyphenolic content, and major phenolics were identified. Results and Discussion. P. lanceolata teas demonstrate good in vitro antimicrobial activity. The in vivo test showed that Group A subjects presented a significant decrease in streptococci compared to Group B. The phytochemical analysis revealed that flavonoids, coumarins, lipids, cinnamic acids, lignans, and phenolic compounds are present in P. lanceolata infusions. Conclusions. P. lanceolata extract could represent a natural anticariogenic agent via an antimicrobial effect and might be useful as an ancillary measure to control the proliferation of cariogenic flora.

“…There is a wide spectrum of dental anomalies but they broadly encompass deviations of tooth number, morphology, structure, position, or eruption. Furthermore, the presence of one anomaly should always alert clinicians to the possibility of others, as numerous studies have demonstrated significant inter‐relationships between certain anomaly types . Notably, a study of almost 5000 Italian children, aged 7‐14 years, revealed significant reciprocal relationships between missing second premolars, enamel hypoplasia, diminutive maxillary lateral incisors, palatally displaced maxillary canines, and primary molar infra‐occlusion .…”

Background: Clinical observations suggest molar incisor hypomineralisation (MIH)may present with other dental conditions. Aims: The study aimed to determine the prevalence and variety of dental anomalies in children presenting with MIH. Design: A convenience sample of children referred to a UK dental hospital was recruited. Orthopantogram radiographs, taken as part of routine care, were assessed for dental anomalies. Two calibrated examiners reviewed the films separately and determined the presence and character of anomalies. Results: Radiographs were obtained from 101 patients, with an age range of 6-15 years. Co-existing hypodontia was identified in 12%, with lower second premolars being the most commonly missing teeth. Concurrent ectopic first permanent molars were identified in 8%, and infraocclusion of one or more primary molars was identified in 9%. Abnormal morphology was found in 9%, including macrodont and microdont teeth. In total, 29% of patients had an associated dental anomaly.Examiners had perfect agreement using Cohen's kappa coefficient. Conclusion: This high prevalence of dental anomalies, particularly hypodontia, in children with MIH is a novel and clinically important finding. Further research is warranted considering the potential implications for assessment and treatment planning. K E Y W O R D Sdental anomalies, hypodontia, molar incisor hypomineralisation

“…According to Italian Ministerial Guidelines [22, 23], it is recommended to encourage breastfeeding, in order to promote more normal jaw development. In fact, proper labial and lingual posture, adequate nasal breathing, and correct transverse diameter of the palate are related to natural breastfeeding.…”

“…Artificial feeding may promote malocclusion, when combined with non-nutritive sucking or with rhinitis; in fact, bottle-fed children can develop sucking habits more frequently than others. Non-nutritive sucking, together with allergic rhinitis, seems to be the most important factor for the development of a posterior crossbite in children under 5 years [22, 23]. It is also recommended to discourage non-nutritive sucking at 2 years of age, in order to definitively stop the habit by 3 years of age.…”

Timetable for oral prevention in childhood—developing dentition and oral habits: a current opinion

et al. 2015

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

As most of the etiologic factors of malocclusion are of genetic origin and thus cannot be prevented, environmental causative factors have become the focus for correction. Early interception of oral habits may be an important step in order to prevent occlusal disturbances in children. The identification of an abnormal habit and the assessment of its potential immediate and long-term effects on the dentition and potentially on the craniofacial complex should be made at an early stage. This paper focuses on the most common oral habits influencing dentofacial growth in childhood and management of these habits in the developing dentition.
