Abstract
Objectives To analyze contributions to microbial ecology of Reactive Electrophile Species (RES), including methylglyoxal, generated during glycolysis. Methods Genetic analyses were performed on the glyoxalase pathway in Streptococcus mutans (SM) and Streptococcus sanguinis (SS), followed by phenotypic assays and transcription analysis. Results Deleting glyoxalase I (lguL) reduced RES tolerance to a far greater extent in SM than in SS, decreasing the competitiveness of SM against SS. Although SM displays a greater RES tolerance than SS, lguL-null mutants of either species showed similar tolerance; a finding consistent with the ability of methylglyoxal to induce the expression of lguL in SM, but not in SS. A novel paralogue of lguL (named gloA2) was identified in most streptococci. SM mutant ∆gloA2SM showed little change in methylglyoxal tolerance yet a significant growth defect and increased autolysis on fructose, a phenotype reversed by the addition of glutathione, or by the deletion of a fructose: phosphotransferase system (PTS) that generates fructose-1-phosphate (F-1-P). Conclusions Fructose contributes to RES generation in a PTS-specific manner, and GloA2 may be required to degrade certain RES derived from F-1-P. This study reveals the critical roles of RES in fitness and interbacterial competition and the effects of PTS in modulating RES metabolism.

Shi L, Zhu Z, Tian Q, He L. Association of Interdental Cleaning and Untreated Root Caries in Adults in the United States of America. Int Dent J 2023; 73:819-827. [PMID: 37316412 PMCID: PMC10658437 DOI: 10.1016/j.identj.2023.04.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2022] [Revised: 04/14/2023] [Accepted: 04/17/2023] [Indexed: 06/16/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to evaluate the association between interdental cleaning and untreated root caries amongst middle-aged and older adults in the US. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data were obtained from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) (2015-2016 and 2017-2018). Adults aged ≥40 years who underwent full mouth examination and root caries assessment were included. Participants were classified based on their interdental cleaning frequency as none, 1-3 d/wk, and 4-7 d/wk. Associations between interdental cleaning and untreated root caries were assessed using a weighted multivariable logistic regression model adjusted for sociodemographics, general behaviour, general health condition, oral conditions, oral health behavior, and dietary factors. Subgroup analyses stratified by age and sex were performed after adjusting for covariates in the logistic regression models. RESULTS The prevalence of untreated root caries was 15.3% amongst 6217 participants. Interdental cleaning for 4-7 d/wk was a significant risk factor (odds ratio, 0.67; 95% confidence interval, 0.52-0.85). It was associated with a 40% reduction in the risk of untreated root caries in participants aged 40 to 64 years and a 37% reduction in women. Untreated root caries was also significantly associated with age, family income, smoking status, root restoration, number of teeth, untreated coronal caries, and recent dental visit. CONCLUSIONS Interdental cleaning for 4-7 d/wk was associated with fewer untreated root caries amongst middle-aged adults and women in the US. The risk of root caries increases with age. Low family income was a risk indicator for root caries amongst middle-aged adults. Additionally, smoking, root restoration, number of teeth, untreated coronal caries, and recent dental visits were common risk factors for root caries in middle-aged and older people in the US.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a prevalent health issue escalating worldwide that gives rise to numerous problems. Periodontal disorders are recognized as the sixth consequence associated with diabetes mellitus. Research shows that dental health affects overall health, and this knowledge is changing the dental field. The correct choice of glucose goal levels and the optimal selection of glucose-lowering medications are determined by a comprehensive geriatric assessment, an estimate of life expectancy, and a rationale for therapy at regular intervals in elderly diabetics. This article provides an overview of the correlation between diabetes and oral health, with a specific emphasis on xerostomia, periodontal disease, and dental caries. Thus, dentists play a significant role within the allied health profession by contributing to the provision of oral care for those diagnosed with diabetes, with a special focus on geriatric patients.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a globally prevalent endocrine and metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia. Its complications significantly impact both the quality and longevity of the patient's life with a substantial burden on the healthcare system. Missing teeth make individuals more susceptible to malnutrition compared to those with functional teeth. This is especially true for people with diabetes, as the condition is closely linked to both oral health and food intake. Natural teeth loss can significantly reduce an individual's ability to chew food, leading to a decrease in the quality and quantity of their nutrition. Prosthodontics is a dental specialty that replaces missing teeth with artificial ones. Replacing missing teeth may prevent the risk of malnutrition due to decreased ability to chew. Good oral health is important for overall health, especially for those with conditions such as diabetes. Artificial teeth replacement may improve nutrition intake by improving chewing ability. Therefore, the ultimate objective of rehabilitating a patient's oral cavity is to replace the shape and function in terms of chewing performance to a degree that is as close to normal as feasible. The purpose of this review is to explore the literature showing the link between natural teeth loss and nutrition in individuals with DM, with a special focus on prosthodontic management. Several oral complications occur in diabetic patients specifically teeth loss, which in turn affects mastication function. This in turn cause malnutrition and affect glucose level. It is imperative for healthcare providers to take an interdisciplinary approach in order to improve the dental and nutritional status and overall well-being of DM patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this systematic review(SR) is to comprehensively and critically summarise and synthesise the available scientific evidence from observational studies that use the decayed-missed-filled(DMF) index to determine caries experiences among adult patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) as compared to individuals without DM(non-DM). DATA Indices that present examinations of decayed-filled-surfaces(DFS), decayed-missed-filled-surfaces(DMFS), and decayed-missed-filled-teeth(DMFT) established from observational studies were considered. SOURCES MEDLINE-PubMed and Cochrane Central databases were searched through 1 February 2023 to identify studies that evaluate DMF indices for adult patients with DM compared to non-DM. The reference lists of the selected studies were reviewed to identify additional potentially relevant studies. STUDY SELECTION All studies were independently screened by two reviewers. Included papers were critically appraised using pre-designed forms, and the risk of bias was assessed. Data as means and standard deviations were extracted. A descriptive data presentation was used for all studies. If quantitative methods were feasible, then a meta-analysis was performed. It was decided 'a priori' to perform a sub-analysis on type of DM(I or II). The quality of the studies was assessed. RESULTS Initially 932 studies were found, and screening resulted in 13 eligible observational studies. The total number of subjects included in this SR is 21,220. A descriptive analysis of the comparisons demonstrated that eight studies provided data and demonstrated higher DFS (1/2), DMFS (2/3) and DMFT (5/8). This was confirmed by the meta-analysis difference of means(DiffM), which was 3.01([95%CI:1.47,4.54],p=0.0001) for DMFT and 10.30([95% CI:8.50,12.11],p<0.00001) for DMFS. Subgroup analysis showed that this difference is irrespective to the type of DM(DiffM=3.09;[95%CI:2.09,4.09],p<0.00001). CONCLUSION There is moderate certainty for a higher DMF index score in DM patients as compared to those without DM disease. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE This SR indicates a higher DMF index in DM patients. Oral disease prevention should be the focus of the dental care practitioner in this patient category.

Abstract
AIMS A previous meta-analysis showed that individuals with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) have a greater chance of developing both coronal caries and root caries than systemically healthy ones, which can be influenced by hyperglycemia per se. This study aimed to associate blood and salivary glucose levels with caries. METHODS This research is a subset of a cross-sectional study. N = 39 individuals underwent a dental examination and salivary glucose, fasting blood glucose (FBG) and glycated hemoglobin (A1c) measurements. RESULTS The prevalence of active coronal caries was 10.2%, and that of root caries was 20.5%. A1c and FBG averages were higher in individuals with root caries (9.75 ± 1.71 and 186.3 ± 62.5) than without (7.01 ± 2.23 and 115.1 ± 48.6; p < 0.05). Individuals with T2D showed weak correlation of salivary glucose and number of active coronal caries. Significant correlations were observed between salivary and blood glucose. There was relevance of A1c (0.53; CI=0.124-0.941; p = 0.01) and FBG (0.019; CI=0.006-0.033; p = 0.006) toward the increased number of root caries lesions, even after adjustment for salivary flow and age. CONCLUSION Blood glucose levels are associated with an increased number of root caries in adults with or without T2D. In individuals with T2D, salivary glucose was correlated with active coronal caries. Additional studies are needed to support this association.

Abstract
Purpose Chewing problems are associated with increased mortality, geriatric syndromes and poor activities of daily living. Starting in 2018, in Japan, a self-reported questionnaire investigating chewing status was implemented in the annual health checkup program. Considering the bidirectional association between hyperglycemia and poor oral health, it is hypothesized that people with self-reported chewing problems will have relatively poor glycemic profiles. We investigated the metabolic characteristics of elderly community dwellers with self-reported chewing problems, as well as the association between the problems and HbA1c levels. Patients and Methods This was a retrospective, cross-sectional study. We reviewed the data of 1018 adults ≥ 65 years of age who had undergone an annual health checkup at Nihon University Hospital during the period from January 2019 through December 2019. The presence of chewing problems was investigated using a self-reported questionnaire constructed based on guidance provided by the Japanese government. Results In the 1018 participants, the overall prevalence of chewing problems was 10.4%. Participants with chewing problems showed significantly higher levels and worse categories of HbA1c than those without such problems (HbA1c < 6.0%, 42.5% vs 54.8%; HbA1c 6.0-6.9%, 41.5% vs 37.0%; HbA1c ≥ 7.0%, 16.0% vs 8.2%, p = 0.008). Participants with HbA1c ≥ 7.0% have a significantly increased risk of chewing problems as compared to those with HbA1c < 6.0% (odds ratio 2.76, p = 0.002), even after adjusting for the effects of age, sex, body mass index, eating behaviors, and history of diabetes mellitus. Conclusion HbA1c ≥ 7.0% is associated with self-reported chewing problems in elderly Japanese community-dwellers. We thus recommend a proactive assessment of oral conditions for this population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim: To identify, structure and evaluate the degree of influence of risk factors on the intensity of dental caries in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus to improve caries-preventive measures. PATIENTS AND METHODS Materials and methods: 179 patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus aged 18 to 56 years with a disease duration from 1 to 50 years were examined. 157 patients had various chronic diabetic complications. In patients the prevalence and intensity of caries were determined according to the DMFT index and the DMFS index, as well as the state of oral hygiene according to the OHI- S index. To determine the risk factors for dental caries, patients were interviewed using the developed questionnaire "The state of dental health of a patient with diabetes mellitus." RESULTS Results: The most significant factors associated with indicators of the intensity of caries of the DMFT and the DMFS in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus are xerostomia (r=0.61, p<0.01, and r=0.66, p<0.01), oral hygiene (r=0.57, p<0.01, and r=0.58, p<0.01), sharp fluctuations in blood glucose level (r=0.54, p<0.05, and r=0.59, p<0.05), frequent hypoglycemia (r=0.53, p<0.05, and r=0.56, p<0.05) and consumption of sweets (r=0.52, p<0.01, and r=0.55, p<0.01). CONCLUSION Conclusions: When introducing individualized caries prevention measures in patients with type 1 diabetes, it is necessary to take into account the identified leading cariogenic factors for their elimination or partial correction.

Abstract
AIMS This study aimed to evaluate the associations of self-reported diabetic status with clinically assessed dental end points, including teeth with untreated coronal and root caries, missing teeth, complete tooth retention, edentulism and routine dental services utilization among adults aged ≥20 years in the United States. METHODS We pooled data from the 2015-2016 and 2017-2018 cycles of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), a nationally representative, cross-sectional, continuous survey of noninstitutionalized US population. The analysed data included all adult participants aged ≥20 years who completed the dental examination and reported their diabetic status. We estimated the prevalence and average outcomes of dental end points by diabetic status. Regression analyses were employed to evaluate the associations between diabetic status and dental outcomes. RESULTS Of 10,249 participants, 1,562 reported having diabetes mellitus, which translates to 11.3% of US adults aged ≥20 years (25.7 million). Compared to non-diabetic individuals, adults with diabetes had 1.49 (95%CI = 1.1-2.0) and 1.46 (95%CI = 1.2-1.8) times higher odds of developing coronal and root caries respectively. Adults with diabetes were 32% less likely to be fully dentate (OR = 0.68; 95%CI = 0.55-0.83) and had a higher average number of missing teeth (mean ratio = 1.35; 95%CI = 1.18-1.55). There was no association between diabetic status and routine dental services utilization. CONCLUSIONS Adults with diabetes exhibited worse dental health; nonetheless, there was no difference in dental services utilization. Multidisciplinary efforts from both medical and dental service providers are required to proactively address the well-being of adults with diabetes in terms of oral health.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe long-term oral health outcomes and examine associations between sociodemographic factors, clinical characteristics, and markers of diabetes control on tooth loss in participants with type 1 diabetes enrolled in the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial/Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions and Complications (DCCT/EDIC) study. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Oral health outcomes related to tooth loss were reported at annual visits during EDIC years 22-26 (2015-2019). Generalized estimating equation models were used to assess the association of individual risk factors and tooth loss, over repeated time points. RESULTS A total of 165 (17%) participants with type 1 diabetes reported 221 oral health outcomes related to tooth loss over a five-year period. After controlling for age and current tobacco use, the presence of diabetic peripheral neuropathy was significantly associated with an increased odds of tooth loss (OR = 1.88, 95% CI 1.24, 2.87) while higher mean HDL/LDL cholesterol ratio was significantly associated with a decreased odds of tooth loss (OR = 0.87, 95% CI = 0.79, 0.97). CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that diabetes-related complications, either resulting from or independent of poor glycemia, may be directly associated with oral health conditions, and support the need for individuals with type 1 diabetes and providers to implement lifestyle and medical interventions to reduce oral health risks.

[PMID: 34563194 PMCID: PMC8466895 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-021-01803-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2020] [Accepted: 09/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to evaluate and present evidence from animal and human clinical studies on associations between dental caries and systemic diseases, and to suggest potential mechanisms that might explain such associations. METHODS An electronic search was conducted of PubMed, Embase and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials for articles published from 2010 to 2020 in the English language. From the initial search, 404 full-text studies were assessed for eligibility. After excluding studies for technical and study limitations, a total of 67 studies were included in the summary tables and additional studies were included in the review to support evidence. RESULTS Few systemic disease and conditions were found to be clinically meaningfully associated with caries experience. Best evidence from human and animal studies described association between metabolic diseases and dental caries. Several interesting animal studies were noted that could generate clinical hypotheses and further investigations in rodent models for cardiovascular injury and hyperglycemia. Inadequate data was found to suggest any modifications to current clinical practice or prevention guidelines. CONCLUSIONS Limited clinical evidence was found connecting several systemic diseases and dental caries. Inadequate data was found to suggest any modifications to current clinical practice or prevention guidelines. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Understanding of associations between dental caries and systemic diseases play a crucial role in the treatment planning and education of the dental patient.

"Dental Cluster" Versus "Metabolic Cluster": Analyzing the Associations of Planned and Delivered Dental Procedures with Metabolic Syndrome, Utilizing Data from the Dental, Oral, Medical Epidemiological (DOME) Cross-Sectional Record-Based Nationwide Study. BIOLOGY 2021; 10:biology10070608. [PMID: 34209432 PMCID: PMC8301031 DOI: 10.3390/biology10070608] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2021] [Revised: 06/25/2021] [Accepted: 06/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Simple Summary There are conflicting results existing regarding the association between dental status and metabolic syndrome (MetS). This study aimed to analyze the association between the sum of the standard dental unit (SDU) scores of planned (SDU-P) and delivered (SDU-D) dental procedures per patient with MetS. Included were data from the Dental, Oral, Medical Epidemi-ological (DOME) study records-based research, which integrated large socio-demographic, medical, and dental databases of a nationally representative sample of young to middle-aged military personnel (N = 131,927). The present study demonstrated that SDU-P, but not SDU-D, is a better predictor of systemic morbidities related to MetS. In other words, MetS is associated with a higher dental treatment needs burden, rather than with dental treatments performed de facto. The study concludes that dental and general health authorities should collaborate and share in-formation and focus on reducing common health-related risk factors, such as smoking and sugar consumption, in particular among high-risk populations, such as immigrants and those with lower SES and rural locality. Abstract There are conflicting results existing regarding the association between dental status and metabolic syndrome (MetS). The present research analyzed the associations of the sum of the standard dental unit (SDU) scores of planned (SDU-P) and delivered (SDU-D) dental procedures per patient with MetS components, consequences, and related conditions. The SDU score of each dental procedure represents the time and complexity of the executed procedure. This cross-sectional study analyzed data from the Dental, Oral, Medical Epidemiological (DOME) repository, which includes comprehensive socio-demographic, medical, and dental databases of a nationally representative sample of 132,529 military personnel. Univariate analyses revealed that SDU-P had statistically significant positive associations with all systemic morbidities related to MetS, while the SDU-D exhibited positive associations with some of the systemic morbidities and with lower ORs. SDU-P and SDU-D were associated with worse scores of auxiliary examinations used in the assessment of MetS components. SDU-P retained significant positive associations in the multivariate analysis with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) (OR = 7.40 (1.91–28.57)), deep vein thrombosis (DVT) (OR = 5.61 (1.53–20.83)), obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) (OR = 5.05 (2.40–10.63)), and fatty liver (OR = 1.82 (1.17–2.84)). In contrast, obesity was the only systemic parameter retaining a significant association with SDU-D following multivariate analysis (OR = 1.47 (1.23–1.76)). It can be concluded that SDU-P, but not SDU-D, is a better predictor of systemic morbidities related to MetS. In other words, MetS is associated with a higher dental treatment needs burden, rather than with dental treatments performed de facto. Dental and general health authorities should collaborate and share information and focus on reducing common health-related risk factors, such as smoking and sugar consumption, in particular among high-risk populations, such as immigrants and those with lower SES and rural locality.

SOS Teeth: First Priority Teeth with Advanced Caries and Its Associations with Metabolic Syndrome among a National Representative Sample of Young and Middle-Aged Adults. J Clin Med 2020; 9:jcm9103170. [PMID: 33007919 PMCID: PMC7599956 DOI: 10.3390/jcm9103170] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2020] [Revised: 09/27/2020] [Accepted: 09/29/2020] [Indexed: 01/28/2023] Open
Abstract
“SOS teeth” are defined as the first priority teeth for treatment, that have distinct cavitation reaching the pulp chamber or only root fragments are present. These are teeth with severe morbidity, that may require pulp capping, root canal treatment, or extraction, and therefore should be treated first. The study aims to explore whether or not a metabolic syndrome (MetS) is associated with SOS teeth. To that end, we performed across-sectional records-based study of a nationally representative sample of 132,529 military personnel aged 18–50 years, who attended the military dental clinics for one year. The mean number of SOS had no statistically significant association with: smoking (p = 0.858), alcohol consumption (p = 0.878), hypertension (p = 0.429), diabetes mellitus (p = 0.866), impaired glucose tolerance (p = 0.909), hyperlipidemia (p = 0.246), ischemic heart disease (p = 0.694), S/P myocardial infarction (p = 0.957), obstructive sleep apnea (p = 0.395), fatty liver (p = 0.074), S/P stroke (p = 0.589), and S/P transient ischemic attack (p = 0.095) and with parental history of: diabetes (p = 0.396)], cardiovascular disease (p = 0.360), stroke (p = 0.368), and sudden death (p = 0.063) as well as with any of the medical auxiliary examinations (p > 0.05). Cariogenic diet was positively associated with SOS teeth (p < 0.001). We conclude that SOS teeth had no statistically significant association with MetS components or with conditions that are consequences or associated with MetS. The only statistically significant parameter was a cariogenic diet, a well-known risk factor for caries and MetS.
