AB  - Background/Aim. Many studies on oral health of psychiatric inpatients reported schizophrenia as the most common psychiatric disorder among their sample population. The available evidence suggests the higher prevalence and severity of periodontal disease among the psychiatric inpatients. The aim of this study was to evaluate periodontal health among the inpatients with schizophrenia and to consider possible risk factors for their current periodontal diseases. Methods. This cross-sectional study comprised 190 inpatients with schizophrenia at the Clinic for Psychiatric Disorders "Dr Laza Lazarević" in Belgrade, and 190 mentally healthy patients at the Clinic for Periodontology and Oral Medicine, Faculty of Dental Medicine, University in Belgrade. The Community Periodontal Index for Treatment Needs (CPITN) and sociodemographic characteristics were registered in both groups as well as the characteristics of the primary disease among the inpatients with schizophrenia. Results. The patients in the study group had significantly higher scores of the CPITN (2.24 ± 0.98) than the patients in the control group (1.21 ± 1.10). Most of the patients in the study group had supra, or subgingival calculi (46.8%), in contrast to the control group patients, who had in most cases gingival bleeding (45.8%). The periodontal pockets where detected in 35.8% of schizophrenic inpatients. The linear regression analysis showed that the gender and age were statistically significant predictors of the CPITN value among the inpatients with schizophrenia. Conclusion. The results of this study generally indicate the need for continuous research of psychiatric patients' oral health, in order to determine the modes of its improvement. Similar studies should elucidate significance of psychiatric patients' periodontal health and sensitize psychiatrists and psychiatric nurses to the oral problems of their patients.
AB  - Uvod/Cilj. Mnogobrojna istraživanja oralnog zdravlju hospitalizovanih psihijatrijskih bolesnika pokazala su da je shizofrenija najčešći psihijatrijski poremećaj među njima. Dostupni podaci ukazuju na veliku prevalenciju i težinu periodontopatije kod bolesnika sa psihijatrijskim poremećajima. Cilj ove studije bio je da se proceni periodontalno zdravlje hospitalizovanih osoba sa shizofrenijom, kao i da se ukaže na moguće faktore rizika od oboljenja potpornog aparata zuba tih bolesnika. Metode. Studijom preseka obuhvaćeno je 190 osoba sa shizofrenijom, hospitalizovanih u Klinici za psihijatrijske bolesti "Dr Laza Lazarević" u Beogradu i 190 mentalno zdravih osoba, pacijenata Klinike za parodontologiju i oralnu medicinu Stomatološkog fakultet, Univerziteta u Beogradu. U obe grupe ispitanika registrovane su vrednosti Zajednički periodontni indeks potreba tretmana - Community Periodontal Index for Treatment Needs (CPITN), kao i sociodemografska obeležja, dok su karakteristike primarne bolesti beležene u studijskoj grupi. Rezultati. Ispitanici studijske grupe su imali znatno veće vrednosti CPITN (2,24 ± 0,98) u odnosu na ispitanike kontrolne grupe (1,21 ± 1,10). Kod većine ispitanika studijske grupe registrovano je prisustvo supra i subgingivalnog kamenca (46,8%), za razliku od ispitanika kontrolne grupe koji su češće imali gingivalno krvarenje (45,8%). Periodontalni džepovi su registrovani kod 35,8% hospitalizovanih osoba sa shizofrenijom. Linearna regresiona analiza pokazala je da su pol i starost ispitanika bili statistički značajni prediktori vrednosti CPITN hospitalizovanih osoba sa shizofrenijom. Zaključak. Rezultati ovog istraživanja ukazuju na postojanje potrebe za kontinuiranim istraživanjem stanja oralnog zdravlja psihijatrijskih bolesnika, kako bi se odredili načini za njegovo unapređenje. Slične studije bi trebalo da razjasne značaj peridodontalnog zdravlja psihijatrijskih bolesnika, kako bi se psihijatrima i medicinskim sestrama ukazalo na postojanje problema oralnog zdravlja njihovih bolesnika.

AB  - The purpose of this study was to investigate postoperative analgesic effect of ropivacaine administered as main or supplemental injection for the inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) in patients undergoing lower third molar surgery. The double-blind randomized study comprised 72 healthy patients. All patients received two blocks, the IANB for surgical procedure + IANB after surgery for postoperative pain control, and were divided into three groups: (1) 2 % lidocaine/epinephrine + 1 % ropivacaine, (2) 2 % lidocaine/epinephrine + saline, and (3) 1 % ropivacaine + saline. The occurrence of postoperative pain, pain intensity and analgesic requirements were recorded. Data were statistically analyzed using chi-square, Fisher, and Kruskal-Wallis tests and analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Bonferroni and Tukey correction. Ropivacaine was more successful than lidocaine/epinephrine in obtaining duration of postoperative analgesia, reduction of pain, and analgesic requirements whether ropivacaine was used for surgical block or administered as a supplemental injection after surgery. Ropivacaine (1 %, 2 ml) resulted in effective postoperative analgesia after lower third molar surgery. Since pain control related to third molar surgery requires the effective surgical anesthesia and postoperative analgesia, the use of 1 % ropivacaine could be clinically relevant in a selection of appropriate pain control regimen for both surgical procedure and early postsurgical treatment.

AB  - Background: Surgical removal of impacted lower third molars is a common oral surgical procedure, generally followed by moderate to severe postoperative pain. Transdermal drug delivery as a concept offers interesting possibilities for postoperative pain control. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of transdermal system with fentanyl in relieving pain following impacted lower third molar surgery. Material and Methods: Seventeen patients with bilateral impacted lower third molars were included in this preliminary study. For postoperative pain control, patients randomly received a fentanyl patch plus placebo tablet after the first operation and regular (placebo) patch and an analgesic, after the second operation. Analgesia was evaluated during first 24 hours postoperatively according to patients' reports about time of first pain appearance and additional analgesic consumption. Pain severity was rated using a 10 cm long visual analogue scale (VAS). Results: Intensity of postoperative pain and postoperative analgesic consumption were significantly lower after the Fentanyl Transdermal System (FTS) was applied (p lt 0.05). Duration of postoperative analgesia was significantly higher with FTS when compared to control treatment (p lt 0.05). Conclusions: Based on the results of this preliminary study, transdermal system with fentanyl significantly reduced postoperative pain after third molar surgery.

AB  - Background/Aim. It is important that the height of the edentulous alveolar ridge after tooth extraction remains at a reasonable acceptable level for as long as possible. The aim of this study was to report preliminary results of the clinical effect of local oral submucous administration of dexamethasone after tooth extractions in order to prepare alveolar supporting tissues for acceptance of removable dentures. Methods. In a total of 15 patients (11 partially and 4 completely edentulous) the quantity of 0.25 mL to 0.5 mL of dexamethasone was injected bucally and orally in the region of the tooth socket after complicated extractions. Results. Healing of extraction wounds was uneventful in all the patients, without pain or local inflammation. Conclusion. Dexamethasone can be locally applied to oral tissues to prevent post-extraction inflammation and extensive resorption of the residual alveolar ridge. The obtained results are promising for patients undergoing classic prosthodontic rehabilitation soon after tooth extraction, demonstrating that there are no adverse effects after local oral corticosteroids administration.

AB  - Objective. The aim of this study was to investigate quality and safety of supplemental intraoral anesthesia - periodontal ligament anaesthesia (PDL) and intraseptal anaesthesia (ISA) after computer-controlled articaine delivery. Method. 54 ASA I volunteers randomly divided into 2 groups participated in this study. 0.4 ml of 4% articaine with 1:100.000 epinephrine were randomly administered with computer-controlled local anaesthetic delivery system on the mesial and distal side of maxillary lateral incisor for ISA or PDL. An electric pulp tester was used to test the pulpal anaesthesia, in 2-minute cycles for 60 minutes. Anaesthesia was considered successful when 2 or more consecutive no-response at 80 readings were obtained. Soft-tissue anaesthesia was measured by pin-prick test. Results. Success rates for ISA and PDL were 77.8% and 55.6% respectively, but difference was not statistically significant (p>0.05). Duration of complete pulpal anaesthesia was significantly longer (p lt 0.05) with the ISA in comparison to the PDL. The width of anesthetizied field was significantly greater (p lt 0.05) with the ISA than with the PDL, both for attached gingiva and oral mucosa. No side effects were recorded during the study. Conclusion. The results of this study indicate that the ISA technique is successful in obtaining complete pulpal anaesthesia of upper lateral incisors and soft-tissue anaesthesia in this area.

abstract = "Objective. The aim of this study was to investigate quality and safety of supplemental intraoral anesthesia - periodontal ligament anaesthesia (PDL) and intraseptal anaesthesia (ISA) after computer-controlled articaine delivery. Method. 54 ASA I volunteers randomly divided into 2 groups participated in this study. 0.4 ml of 4% articaine with 1:100.000 epinephrine were randomly administered with computer-controlled local anaesthetic delivery system on the mesial and distal side of maxillary lateral incisor for ISA or PDL. An electric pulp tester was used to test the pulpal anaesthesia, in 2-minute cycles for 60 minutes. Anaesthesia was considered successful when 2 or more consecutive no-response at 80 readings were obtained. Soft-tissue anaesthesia was measured by pin-prick test. Results. Success rates for ISA and PDL were 77.8% and 55.6% respectively, but difference was not statistically significant (p>0.05). Duration of complete pulpal anaesthesia was significantly longer (p lt 0.05) with the ISA in comparison to the PDL. The width of anesthetizied field was significantly greater (p lt 0.05) with the ISA than with the PDL, both for attached gingiva and oral mucosa. No side effects were recorded during the study. Conclusion. The results of this study indicate that the ISA technique is successful in obtaining complete pulpal anaesthesia of upper lateral incisors and soft-tissue anaesthesia in this area.",

AB  - There is no data concerning the use of the intraseptal anaesthesia (ISA) for single tooth extraction. The aims of this study were to compare the clinical efficacy and haemodynamic responses of the ISA with the periodontal ligament anaesthesia (PLA) for single tooth extraction. Thirty-five randomly selected healthy patients (ASA I) undergoing maxillary lateral incisors extraction entered the study. Onset of anaesthesia, the width of the anaesthetic field and duration of anaesthesia were recorded by pinprick testing. Intensity of anaesthesia was evaluated on a visual analogue scale. Haemodynamic parameters were recorded simultaneously at different time points after anaesthesia injection. The two techniques of local anaesthesia did not show statistically significant differences regarding the success rate and onset of anaesthesia, while the duration of the ISA on the buccal site was significantly longer in comparison with the PLA. The intensity of the achieved anaesthesia, estimated by the experienced pain during procedure, pointed out that pain was recorded in 24% of cases in the ISA group, and in 19% in the PLA group without significant differences. Postoperative pain was found to be smaller in the ISA group (70.9% of treated sites) than in the PLA group (81.3% of treated sites); however, this difference was not significant. Although the heart rate increased in both groups, there were no significant differences in the patients' haemodynamic response between the ISA and the PLA. The results of the present study indicate that both techniques are useful and suitable for the routine tooth extraction.

AB  - Objective. The objective of this study was to report results of functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) for treatment of chronic maxillary sinusitis of dental origin in a series of patients with oroantral fistulae (OAF). Study design. Fourteen patients were treated by FESS and OAF closure by local flap. Data on severity of symptoms, diagnostic endoscopy, and coronal CT scan findings, as well as intraoperative course and complications, were recorded. The follow-up period lasted up to 2 years, comprising clinical examinations and control CT scans. Results. All OAF healed uneventfully. All patients reported improvement in severity of sinusitis symptoms, which was confirmed through results of clinical examinations and control CT scans. No significant complications were recorded. No revision surgery was needed in any case. Conclusion. These results indicate that FESS, combined with OAF closure by buccal flap, might be an effective and safe option for treatment of selected cases of chronic odontogenic sinusitis with OAF.

AB  - Objective. The aim of this study was to compare the treatment of oroantral communications (OACs) with bioresorbable root analogs made of poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA)-coated beta-tricalcium phosphate (beta-TCP), hemostatic gauze or a buccal flap technique. Study design. In this prospective clinical study, 30 patients with oroantral communications were randomly assigned to a treatment. Clinical success, vestibular depth at the defect site, pain, and swelling were monitored. Results. The OAC closure was successful in all cases. The vestibular depth stayed constant in the groups treated with the PLGA-beta-TCP composite or hemostatic gauze. In contrast, a vestibular depth reduction of 1.2 +/- 0.2 mm was observed in the buccal flap group, indicating atrophy of the alveolar ridge in these patients. Furthermore, pain and swelling were more pronounced in this group. Conclusion. Closures of OACs with PLGA-beta-TCP composite or hemostatic gauze are reliable minimally invasive methods that minimize atrophy of the alveolar ridge, swelling, and pain compared with a buccal flap technique.

AB  - Introduction: Since there is no data concerning local analgesic efficacy of ropivacaine for lower third molar surgery, the aim of this doubleblind study was to compare local anaesthetic parameters and postoperative analgesic requirements after the use of ropivacaine and bupivacaine for the inferior alveolar nerve block. Materials and Method: 20 healthy patients were equally randomized into the ropivacaine (0.75%, 2 ml) or bupivacaine (0.5%, 2 ml) groups. The onset and duration of anaesthesia (the lower lip numbness and pinprick test) and intensity of anaesthesia (visual analogue and verbal rating scales) were determined. The postoperative pain reports and analgesic requirements were also recorded. Results: There were no significant differences concerning parameters of the achieved anaesthesia. 2 patients in the bupivacaine group felt postoperative pain without the need for pain medication. Conclusion: Ropivacaine is suitable for achieving local anaesthesia in lower third molar surgery, especially when prolonged analgesia is desired.

AB  - Postoperative oedema is common following removal of impacted lower third molars. Several types of drug therapy (corticosteroids, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, enzymes) have been tried. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of low-power laser (LPL) and dexamethasone after surgical removal of impacted lower third molars under local anaesthesia (2% lidocaine/epinephrine). Material and methods. There were 120 healthy patients divided into four groups of 30 each. Group I received LPL irradiation immediately after operation (energy output 4 J/cm(2) with constant power density of 50 mW, wavelength 637 nm); group 2 also received i.m. injection of 4 mg dexamethasone (Dexason(R)) into the internal pterygoid muscle; group 3 received LPL irradiation supplemented by systemic dexamethasone (Dexason(R)), 4 mg i.m. in the deltoid region, followed by 4 mg of dexamethasone intraorally 6 h postoperatively; and the fourth (control) group received only the usual postoperative recommendations (cold packs, soft diet, etc.). Results. LPL irradiation with local use of dexamethasone (group 2) resulted in a statistically significant reduction of postoperative oedema in comparison to the other groups. No adverse effects of the procedure or medication were observed. Conclusion. LPL irradiation after lower third molar surgery can be recommended to minimize swelling. The effect is enhanced by simultaneous local intramuscular use of dexamethasone.
