“…This is consistent with the studies performed by Kakoei et al 28 and Singh al. 29 Moreover, this finding is in line with study was performed by Al-Naaimi et al 30 Various types of chronic orofacial pain of unknown origin exist. The new ICOP is the first comprehensive classification that uniquely deals with orofacial pain.…”

Objective This study aimed to examine the etiological factors of orofacial pain for patients attending dental clinic at Faculty of Dentistry, International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM). Materials and Methods This retrospective study examined the data of 248 patients who have attended dental clinic at Faculty of Dentistry IIUM and suffering from different types of orofacial pain. The data were collected from January 2010 to November 2018. The etiologies of pain were classified according to International Classification of Orofacial Pain, 1st edition (2020). Statistical Analysis The association of age and gender with orofacial pain was evaluated by using the Chi-square test, and the significance level was set to 0.05. Results Collected data showed that orofacial pain has different etiologies among the patients attending the dental clinic at Faculty of Dentistry IIUM. Moreover, a statistically significant relation was observed between orofacial pain toward gender and different age group. Conclusion The findings proposed that the orofacial pain has a variety of etiological factors with the highest percentage of orofacial pain attributed to disorders of dentoalveolar and anatomically related structures among patients attending dental clinic at Faculty of Dentistry IIUM.

“…Previous study from Anjum et al (2014), reported that more males were affected than female in a ratio of 1.3:1. A few previous studies also reported more incidents of male compared to female (Tegginamani and Prasad, 2013;Singh et al, 2018). The difference of indings on gender among a periodontal patient suggests that there is no correlation between genders that may affect the in lammation to occur.…”

Molecular identification of bacteria are very important to develop database gene bank in university. Databases of genes are very important to annotate a collection of nucleotide sequence and protein translation of oral bacteria. This research was conducted to identify bacteria that present in the plaque sample among diabetic patients collected from the Department of Periodontology and Community Oral health Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM). A total of bacteria was successfully isolated on Blood Agar from periodontal patients’ plaques. Colony Forming Unit (CFU/mL) was calculated to estimate the number of viable bacteria in a sample after performed serial dilution. Gram stained was done for all isolated samples to differentiate between Gram positive and negative organisms. About 2.07 x 10 7 CFU/mL of bacteria was successfully collected from periodontal plaques on diabetes patient. From the numbers, only 17 were selected to identify the species. Seven from the samples were Gram-positive bacteria, meanwhile ten samples were identified as Gram-negative bacteria. PCR products were isolated from the samples by using polymerase chain reaction analysis. Purification had been done to all PCR products before sent it for sequencing. Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus gordonii, Streptococcus oralis, Streptococcus sanguinis, Streptococcus agalactiae, Streptococcus lutetiensis, Streptococcus downei,, Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterobacter clocae, Salmonella enterica subs enterica, Enterobacter ludwigii, Enterobacter mori, Enterobacter roggen kampii, Enterobacter cloacae, Enterobacter tabaci and Klebsiella pneumoniae were identified from all samples via DNA sequencing.

“…The lower third molar position is usually evaluated by Pell and Gregory classification ( Figure 2 ) and Winters’s classification ( Figure 3 ). The results of studies on the mandibular third molar position and the occurrence of pericoronitis vary [ 8 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 ]. However, a meta-analysis on this topic conducted in 2019 revealed that:…”

“…On the other hand, children and adults over the age of 40 years are rarely affected [ 2 ]. Several studies have reported the distribution of pericoronitis between the sexes to be insignificant with a slight female predominance [ 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 ]. The diagnosis is based on clinical examination and differential diagnosis.…”

This work provides a narrative review covering evidence-based recommendations for pericoronitis management (Part A) and a systematic review of antibiotic prescribing for pericoronitis from January 2000 to May 2021 (Part B). Part A presents the most recent, clinically significant, and evidence-based guidance for pericoronitis diagnosis and proper treatment recommending the local therapy over antibiotic prescribing, which should be reserved for severe conditions. The systematic review includes publications analyzing sets of patients treated for pericoronitis and questionnaires that identified dentists' therapeutic approaches to pericoronitis. Questionnaires among dentists revealed that almost 75% of them prescribed antibiotics for pericoronitis, and pericoronitis was among the top 4 in the frequency of antibiotic use within the surveyed diagnoses and situations. Studies involving patients showed that antibiotics were prescribed to more than half of the patients with pericoronitis, and pericoronitis was among the top 2 in the frequency of antibiotic use within the monitored diagnoses and situations. The most prescribed antibiotics for pericoronitis were amoxicillin and metronidazole. The systematic review results show abundant and unnecessary use of antibiotics for pericoronitis and are in strong contrast to evidence-based recommendations summarized in the narrative review. Adherence of dental professionals to the recommendations presented in this work can help rapidly reduce the duration of pericoronitis, prevent its complications, and reduce the use of antibiotics and thus reduce its impact on patients' quality of life, healthcare costs, and antimicrobial resistance development.
