[The microbiological aspects of dental caries: the evaluation of a protocol for isolating Streptococcus mutans].

The role of Streptococcus mutans in the etiopathogenesis of dental caries to set up a protocol for the culture and the identification of the bacterium, in order to obtain the isolation in an heterogeneous age, sex and stomatognathic population is described. A selected culture medium for mutans, Mitis Salivarius agar enriched with Bacitracin (MSB-agar), has been used as well as biochemical method based on carbohydrates fermentation by amplified bacterial flora for the identification of the bacterial genus.

[The prevention of bacterial endocarditis].

The paper examines the prevention of bacterial endocarditis in risk patients undergoing outpatient treatment. The hypothesis of possible bacteremia provoked by either diagnostic or therapeutic surgery should be carefully assessed. For this purpose antibiotic prophylaxis should be commenced, using different methods and doses according to the type of patient, in association with hygienic and behavioural norms which the specialist will recommend and monitor.

[Postextraction hemorrhage: treatment with an infrared photocoagulative technic].

The use of the infrared ray photocoagulative technique is reported in 80 patients with moderate and/or intensive postextraction haemorrhage. The results obtained confirm the effectiveness of the technique in dentistry in which it has thus for not been used, with the purpose of making choice of suitable haemostatic technique wider in case of need.

[An infrared photocoagulative technic in the prevention of hemorrhagic complications in oral medicine].

The infrared ray clotting technique has been successfully employed in numerous branches of medicine and surgery. Here its usefulness is demonstrated in dentistry, particularly in the treatment of haemorrhagic complications in oral and extractive surgery in patients suffering from clotting disturbances. The physical features of infrared radiation make it possible to perform a targeted, instantaneous tissue necrosis of depth proportional to exposure time. Its speed, simplicity and effectiveness make infrared ray clotting the haemostatic intervention of choice in every single event.

[Pharmacologic prevention of allergic complications caused by local anesthesia in odontostomatology].

The immunological responses of IgE mediated Type I and of cell-mediated Type IV that intervene in the biphasic mechanism of allergic phenomena, represent the site of action of the pharmacological therapeutic aids usable in the prophylaxis of allergic complications of local anaesthetics. Having examined the pharmacodynamics, the possible clinical use of these drugs is discussed.

[The correlation between dental pathology and ophthalmic pathology].

The study aims to assess the correlation between dental pathologies and ophthalmic diseases. Based on a statistical evaluation, the study examines the presence of dental diseases in patients suffering from optic neuritis or uveitis in comparison to a control group of subjects. The possible interactions between the two ophthalmic pathologies and dental diseases are then analyzed in order to highlight possible clinical signs which may be useful for their identification.

[Nimesulide: multicenter clinical study for evaluation of its therapeutic effect in odontostomatology].

A Polycentric Study was carried out so as to assess the anti-inflammatory effectiveness and pain-killing activity of Nimesulide in Odontostomatological practice, in 78 patients suffering from alveolo-gingival and parodontal abscesses, consequences of tooth extraction, suppurated radicular cysts, dysodontiasis, osteitis, periodontitis, periostitis. The results obtained confirm the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect as well as the good tolerability of this drug.

Administration, Oral↗

[Scleroderma: oral manifestations].

Oral signs of sclerodermia and dental implications are described. The disease can be classified among the collagenopathies and its onset often involves dermatological signs prior to involving other organs and systems.
