摘要:

ABSTRACTThis project demonstrated the feasibility of training dental and nondental professionals to develop and implement programs in oral health care of older adults. Eight self‐guided study modules were developed and tested. Trainees drawn from dentistry, dental hygiene, nursing, and planning/administration completed a 6‐month individualized training program under the guidance of faculty mentors. Program structure, content, and implications are discus

摘要:

ABSTRACTA 10‐year longitudinal report of case of an institutionalized autistic male dental patient is described. Interpretation of the data in the clinical and medical charts during this period points to possible clues to facilitating treatment for autistic individuals. One potentially important finding is the apparent inverse relationship that was found between level of sedation and patient cooperation. The impact of the specific medical diagnosis on the comprehensive care for these patients is also addresse

摘要:

ABSTRACTThere is controversy regarding the safe use of local anesthetics in patients who are susceptible to malignant hyperthermia undergoing dental treatment. This article reviews the literature for reports of malignant hyperthermia reactions under local and general anesthesia, and suggests a protocol for the management of these patients in the dental office.

摘要:

ABSTRACTDentists need to understand and recognize the special needs of this unique patient population before dental therapy is instituted. The primary objective of this paper is to familiarize the dental practitioner with the central venous catheter and its indications in pediatric medicine. In addition, recommendations concerning the appropriate management of these patients are provided.

摘要:

ABSTRACTTwo mobile treatment programs using portable equipment transported in vans to serve homebound persons in Denver and Chicago are compared for types of patients treated, use by local dentists, types of services provided, fees generated, and costs involved in operation during the 2‐year period (1985–86). Both programs treated a similar, largely nursing home‐based white female population that was predominantly older. Volunteer dentist participation varied greatly, with more than twice the number of dentists using the service in Chicago. Both programs accomplished essentially the same number of visits for the biennium studied, with 1,324 for Chicago and 1,320 for Denver. The Denver program was more efficient, generating more visits each time a dentist used the program. The services provided in total were about the same for both programs, with Denver generating 4,887 procedures and Chicago 4,602 for the biennium, but Denver had a more favorable ratio of diagnostic to treatment services. The costs of both programs were close, averaging about $60,000 per year. Denver was able to generate far more in equivalent fees than Chicago for the biennium, but Chicago dentists donated a greater percentage of services (67) than did Denver dentists

摘要:

ABSTRACTBone marrow transplant patients (N = 12) with oral lesions consistent with herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection were studied to compare the sensitivity of two rapid cytodiagnostic methods with viral cultures. Routine viral cultures and exfoliative cytology smears were prepared for microscopic evaluation using the Papanicolaou method and an immmunoperoxidase staining technique for detection of HSV type 1.Patients with a positive viral culture (N = 10) showed positive staining for HSV, using the immunoperoxidase technique. Multinucleated giant epithelial cells were observed in only seven of the ten positive specimens, using the Papanicolaou method. The results from this preliminary study suggest that the immunoperoxidase method may provide the dentist with a reliable and rapid approach for the diagnosis of intraoral HSV.
