Introduction, Aim: Avulsion of permanent teeth is one of the most serious dental injuries, and a prompt and correct emergency management is very important for the prognosis of replantation. The aim of this study was to find out the causes that lead to dental avulsion, and to analyze the factors that influenced the success of replantation. Methods: In our study we analyzed the documentation of a sample of 46 patients who had a total of 49 avulsed teeth (17 teeth with open apices, 32 teeth with closed apices) and were treated in Dentistry Department of Medical Faculty in Pilsen. We looked for the causes of the dental injuries, healing...

Čes. stomatol. Prakt. zub. lék. (Czech Dental Journal) 2014; 114(5): 61-68 | DOI: 10.51479/cspzl.2014.031  

Introduction, Aim: Orbital fractures, especially orbital floor fractures, are relatively common type of facial fractures. Fracture severity ranges from small minimally displaced fractures of an isolated wall that require no treatment to major disruption of the orbit that require surgical intervention. The main goal of the surgical therapy is an optimal anatomical reconstruction of the orbit leaving no functional or cosmetic defects. Indication and timing of the surgical intervention is based on the results of clinical findings and radiologic examination, preferably computed tomography scanning. Magnetic resonance images can be used for characterization...

D. Hrubá, V. Vondráček, N. Salah, F. L. Alradhi

Čes. stomatol. Prakt. zub. lék. (Czech Dental Journal) 2014; 114(5): 69-73 | DOI: 10.51479/cspzl.2014.032  

Background: Smoking is the most important single preventable risk factor for many diseases, including impaired oral health. Many studies have repeatedly documented the higher prevalence of caries, periodontitis, tooth loss and head-neck cancer among smokers.Smoking can contribute to the initiation and progression of diseases in oral cavity both indirectly (by smokers' bad nutrition and oral hygiene) and directly. The deleterious effect of smoking in the oral cavity is due to plaque accumulation and increased alveolar bone resorption. Main causal pathways are hypoxemia, inflammation, impaired immunity, mineral and bacterial imbalance. Cytotoxic...

Background: This review summarizes the current state of knowledge about the relationship between diabetes mellitus (DM) and diseases of the oral cavity tissues. In the introduction, the authors define diabetes including its classification, describe causes of DM origin as well as complications accompanying this disease. Further, the actual epidemiological data related to the diabetes occurrence in the Czech Republic and in the world are given. The authors summarize manifestation of DM in the oral cavity and its impact on the periodontal tissues (gingivitis and periodontitis), caries rate, state of the oral mucosa (oral candidiasis, oral lichen...
