[Electromyographic and electrognathographic analysis of patients with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis].

Seven patients, affected by JRA, underwent an examination by electromyography and electrognathography, to judge variations in the activity of some masticatory muscles and in the movements of the jaw. The muscular activity and masticatory mechanics show a reduction in the freedom of movement. The system cannot work in all the positions allowed by the physiological mobility of the TMJ.

[Oral hygiene motivation in orthodontic patients].

The task of the present study has been to verify experimentally if prolonged motivation may produce better oral hygienic conditions in orthodontic patients. Applying oral hygienic index modified, gingival index and saliva lactobacilli's concentration count, the A.A. obtained encouraging data evaluating the motivated subjects situation versus control group.

[Dental age and skeletal age: correlation study].

Authors looked for a correlation between dental and skeletal age, to simplify diagnosis, considering 116 subject's panoramic and carpal radiography. Results unfortunately show that is impossible to estimate skeletal maturation by dental analysis only.

[Clinico-histological evaluation of surgical orthodontic treatment for fused teeth].

Seeking an evaluation pattern for periodontal wounds following the surgical section of two fused teeth healing, the authors caused in an animal a similar lesion. After that, they valued the undergoing to pressure or traction periodontal re-organizing and the histological-clinical data showed a tissues favourable repair.

[Histological evaluation of tooth movement using immunocytochemical research].

A new immunocytochemical methodology has been applied to value the proliferation in the periodontal tissue following experimental tooth movement. Orthodontic tooth movement has been obtained in Guinea pigs by a coil sporing, and a proliferation marker administrated "in vivo"; the proliferation marker used is Bromodeoxyuridine, a thimidine analogue which is taken up by DNA synthesizing nuclei, and afterwards intensified by two monoclonal antibodies, where the second is FITC coniugated. Instead of some technical difficulties, the results are encouraging for further development.

[Frequency of malocclusion in 800 school children in the province of Pavia].

After a brief review of the literature on the subject, the results of a study of the frequency of malocclusions in 800 primary school children are reported. A very high percentage (80.3%) was observed, with a prevalence of males(83%) over females (77%). The relationships between malocclusions and age and between malocclusions an; caries are also examined.
