[Light and scanning electron microscopic studies of structure of dentin interglobular spaces (author's transl)].

The author, after giving a literature survey, reports the results of scanning electron microscope examinations of interglobular spaces. The interglobular spaces are mineral-free regions within the dentin. They contain an organic matrix with a smaller amount of ground substance and a smaller number of collagenic fibrils than are contained in the matrix of mineralized dentin. Obviously, hollow spaces observed during microscopic examination are artifacts produced by shrinkage of the matrix despite good fixation. It has not so far been possible to obtain any indications of liquid-filled spaces.

Dentin

[Orthodontic prophylaxis].

The problems related to the prevention of dental anomalies are very complex. They include the health care for the expectant mother and become evident above all if one considers the long period of development during which the dentition must be protected against adverse causative effects. The developmental phases of the orofacial system from birth to the time at which the permanent anteriors begin to erupt are set forth and measures are deduced that may contribute to the reduction of malformations. It is emphasized that orthodontic prophylaxis will be efficient only if the causative relationships, the conditions of development and the efficiency of the measures taken are realized correctly and evaluated according to high standards.

Breast Feeding

[The pathomorphology of chronic apical periodontitis].

The clinical, roentgenological and histopathological diagnoses of thirty apical processes are compared. The paper also discusses certain histopathological characteristics. As a result of these investigations, a proposal is made to modify the classification of chronic apical processes.

Chronic Disease

[Evaluation of Noracryl 100 as a filling material].

There were carried out clinical, chemical and scanning electron microscopical investigations of the filling material Noracryl 100, a composite produced by the Soviet Union. This material is one of the composites of the first generation and there were discussed its advantages and disadvantages in face of other filling materials of that kind.
