Introduction, aim: Dentigerous cyst is a relatively common disease of jaws. It appears most frequently in the lower third molars area. The treatment of the disease is exclusively surgical. The aim of this study was to evaluate a group of patients diagnosed with dentigerous cyst according to the age, gender, complications, subjective complaints, localization, diagnostic procedures, type and time of the treatment. Methods: In a retrospective study, a sample of 50 patients diagnosed and treated for dentigerous cyst within five years (2008-2012) at the Department of Dentistry, Faculty of Medicine, and University Hospital in Hradec Králové,...

Čes. stomatol. Prakt. zub. lék. (Czech Dental Journal) 2016; 116(2): 29-39 | DOI: 10.51479/cspzl.2016.004

Introduction and aim: Many criteria of ideal occlusion, especially of the static occlusion, were generally accepted. On the contrary, other parameters, especially of the dynamic occlusion, are subject to ongoing debate. Epidemiological studies contribute to this discussion.The aim of the presented epidemiological study was to describe occlusal contacts during protrusion, to classify them and to find out prevalence of protrusive interferences. Methods: 100 young adults, dental students, 60 women, 40 men, were examined. The age of the participants was 20-32 years (median 22). Subjects had well-preserved dentitions. 55 subjects had...

Importance of Centric Relation Registration by the Patients with Complete Dentures

Čes. stomatol. Prakt. zub. lék. (Czech Dental Journal) 2016; 116(2): 40-46 | DOI: 10.51479/cspzl.2016.005

Introduction and aims: Exact registration of the centric relation by the edentulous patient is one of the main pillars of dentures stability and retention. This registration is possible using the conventional method with the occlusal rims according to Walkhof, or modification of it, or instrumental method - a gothic arch tracing. The aim of this paper is to compare conventional with the instrumental method and statistical accuracy of them. Methods: It was set the file of 267 patients with upper or lower complete denture. The patients were examined clinically and the panoramatic X-ray (orthopantomogram) was done. By 201 patients (75.3%)...

Streptococcus Mutans and its Influence on Dental Status

S. Halamová, M. Kadlecová, T. Dostálová

Čes. stomatol. Prakt. zub. lék. (Czech Dental Journal) 2016; 116(2): 47-53 | DOI: 10.51479/cspzl.2016.006

Introduction: Streptococcus mutans along with other factors plays an important role in the development of dental caries. In terms of optimalization of prevention of dental caries, there has been search for a reliable test for a chair side caries risk assessment. GC Saliva-Check Mutans allows us to semiqantitatively assess the amount of bacteria Streptococcus mutans in saliva. Aim: The aim of this study was to determine whether the patients with high concentration of Streptococcus mutans in saliva (i.e. positive result in Saliva-check mutans) are at higher caries risk than patients with lower concentration of Streptococcus...

Čes. stomatol. Prakt. zub. lék. (Czech Dental Journal) 2016; 116(2): 19-24 | DOI: 10.51479/cspzl.2016.016

Objectives: Disinfection of the root canal system is one of the most important steps in revascularization treatment. If the disinfection of root canal system is inadequate, the succes rate is decreased. On the other hand if the disinfection of root canal system is too aggresive, the probability of new hard tissue on the root canal walls is less probable. In this second article, bacterial contamination of root canal system and its decontamination are considered. Particular irrigation solutions are analysed from both their antimicrobial activity as well as translational medicine. Furthermore, possible intracanal medications, including suggestion...
