Teeth

336
The formation of teeth, also known as odontogenesis, is a complex process that begins in utero, around the sixth week of embryonic development. There are three stages to this process: the bud stage, the cap stage, and the bell stage.
In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin...

Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System VI: Calcium -Scoring CT

Calcium-Scoring CT ScanA calcium-scoring CT scan, also known as coronary artery calcium (CAC) scan, detects calcium deposits in the coronary arteries. This test assesses the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD), which can lead to cardiovascular events such as angina, heart failure, and sudden cardiac arrest.A calcium-scoring CT scan is generally recommended for individuals at intermediate risk of CAD without symptoms. It includes:Men aged 40-75 and women aged 50-75: Especially those with a...

Tooth Anatomy

380
The human tooth enables us to eat a variety of foods, speak clearly, and even aid in shaping our faces. Teeth are composed of various elements that work together. Here's a detailed look at the anatomy of a human tooth.
The Crown, Neck, and Root
The visible part of the tooth is referred to as the crown. It's covered by enamel, the hardest substance in the human body. The crown is uniquely shaped for each type of tooth, allowing for different functions such as cutting, tearing, or...

Summary

Swedish dental data from the SKaPa register is accurate for adults. Latent Class Analysis (LCA) effectively identifies caries subtypes with distinct health and behavioral characteristics.

Area of Science:

  • Oral Health Research
  • Public Health Surveillance
  • Biostatistics

Background:

  • The Swedish Quality Register on Caries and Periodontitis (SKaPa) collects adult dental data.
  • Validating registry data and exploring advanced analytical methods are crucial for public health.
  • Understanding caries patterns can inform targeted interventions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the accuracy of adult dental data in the SKaPa register.
  • To determine if Latent Class Analysis (LCA) can identify distinct patient groups based on caries data.
  • To characterize the dental, medical, and behavioral profiles of these identified groups.

Main Methods:

  • Dental data from SKaPa were validated against clinical data from dentists in the Malmö Offspring Dental Study (MODS).
  • Latent Class Analysis (LCA) was used to classify 61,984 adult participants from the Västerbotten Intervention Programme (VIP) into five groups.
  • Dental status, medical history, anthropometric, and behavioral data were compared across LCA-derived classes and DMFS-ranked quintiles.

Main Results:

  • SKaPa dental data demonstrated excellent agreement with reference clinical data (intra-class correlations > 0.90).
  • LCA successfully identified five distinct classes of participants based on DMFS scores, ranging from 10.0 to 94.4.
  • Significant associations were found between LCA classes and various health/behavioral measures, with LCA capturing information not evident in DMFS-ranked groups.

Conclusions:

  • Adult dental data within a 2-year window in the SKaPa registry are accurate.
  • LCA provides a robust method for classifying individuals into caries subtypes.
  • These caries subtypes exhibit differing health and behavioral characteristics and future caries progression, highlighting LCA's potential in personalized oral health.
