The intent of this research is to describe the histopathological evolution of the carious lesion on the teeth with great crown caries. The histo-pathological study of the dental structure affected by carious lesion can favour a better uptake of some pathological and semeiotic events to whom often the clinician don't get to give an exact explanation.
The Authors refer about a research made in a primary school after checking mouth sickness in school boys. The research concerns three periods: 1st. medicaL examination, 2 nd. instructions about a correct oral hygiene, 3 rd. anew inspection. The conclusions they made, are the following: now only the children know what they must do for their teeth in order to avoid mouth sickness and how to prevent then, but also their parents and often their teachers are not sensitive to this problem. So it is necessary that the prevention work begun by the dentist, will be carried on by parents and by teachers.
The Authors have prepared a protocol of research to evaluate the forces of lateral expansion expressed by the palatal bar et different degrees of activation. A special instrument has been built to this purpose. The forces expressed at the different degrees of activation are then evaluated and confronted in relation to the following variables: --length of the bar;--the presence or the absence of a U loop; --the more or less bowed conformation given to the bar. It is shown how, on the same terms, the presence of the U loop reduces the force made by the bar by about the half and that the more or less bowed conformation of the bar influences the force in the same way.
Moving from the general definition of "handicap" "the Authors suggest a classification system based upon the most important altered function of a patient. A handicap situation happens when a patient needs special care in a dental office, both for particular oral changes due to his primary pathology or related therapy and for increased operatory risks.
