Assessment of the Mouth01:26

Assessment of the Mouth

240
A thorough mouth assessment, including inspection and palpation of the lips, gums, tongue, tonsils, uvula, and pharynx, is crucial in detecting potential health issues. Diseases ranging from oral cancer to systemic conditions like diabetes could be identified early through careful oral examination. This article provides a detailed guide on conducting a comprehensive mouth assessment.
Mouth Inspection
The inspection begins with visually examining the mouth for symmetry, color, and size.

Summary

Resin-modified glass-ionomer cement (RMGIC) showed better clinical performance than glass-ionomer cement (GIC) in Class V restorations. RMGIC offered superior retention and color match, leading to a higher overall success rate in this student-performed dental restoration study.

Area of Science:

  • Restorative Dentistry
  • Dental Materials Science
  • Clinical Dental Research

Background:

  • Class V carious cervical lesions are common and require durable restorations.
  • Glass-ionomer cement (GIC) and resin-modified glass-ionomer cement (RMGIC) are frequently used for such restorations.
  • Evaluating the long-term clinical performance of these materials is crucial for optimal patient outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare the clinical performance of GIC and RMGIC in Class V restorations.
  • To assess the success rates, retention, and color stability of these materials.
  • To analyze restorations performed by dental students in a real-world clinical setting.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective evaluation of 96 Class V restorations (39 GIC, 57 RMGIC) placed by dental students.
  • Utilized modified USPHS criteria for assessment by two independent investigators.
  • Follow-up evaluations were conducted two years apart, with survival probability calculated using the Kaplan-Meier algorithm.

Main Results:

  • The overall success rate for Class V restorations was 72.9% after 2.5–3.5 years.
  • Resin-modified glass-ionomer cement (Fuji II LC) demonstrated a significantly higher success rate than glass-ionomer cement (Fuji IX) (p = 0.0104).
  • Significant differences favoring RMGIC were noted in retention (p = 0.0034) and color match (p = 0.0023).

Conclusions:

  • Resin-modified glass-ionomer cement is a superior choice over traditional glass-ionomer cement for Class V cervical restorations.
  • RMGIC provides better long-term retention and aesthetic properties compared to GIC.
  • These findings support the use of RMGIC in restorative dentistry, particularly for student-performed procedures.
