Dental treatments, as well as simple anatomical and functional repair work, can also be for aesthetic purposes. This is because the anatomical area concerned, i.e. the oral cavity, has a great power of attraction. Aesthetic treatments in general – in particular dental treatments – have been on the rise in recent years, and this has also meant an in...
In order to better understand the occlusal forces that directly influence the longevity of materials machined in CAD / CAM, tissues and, consequently, rehabilitation treatments, this study intends to evaluate the mechanical stress distribution in implant-supported crowns and the bone-implant interface, analyzing (Lithium disilicate, zirconium dioxi...

Rationale and objectives: The oral cavity is united with the airways, and thus poor oral health may affect respiratory health. However, data on the interaction of periodontal and respiratory health is limited. We aimed to evaluate whether periodontal health status, assessed by the Community Periodontal Index (CPI), was related to lung function amon...

Bovine milk intake has been associated with various disease outcomes, with modulation of the gastro-intestinal microbiome being suggested as one potential mechanism. The aim of the present study was to explore the oral microbiota in relation to variation in self-reported milk intake. Saliva and tooth biofilm microbiota was characterized by 16S rDNA...
Background: Vitamin D is crucial for mineralized tissue formation and immunological functions. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between vitamin D status and dental status in healthy children with vitamin D supplementation in infancy and at 6 years of age. Method: Eight-year-old children who had participated, in a vitamin D ...
Introduktion: Sjögrens syndrom (SS) är en kronisk autoimmun sjukdom som kan påverka flera organsystem i kroppen. Sjukdomen drabbar exokrina körtlar som till exempel salivkörtlar, vilket resulterar i reducerat salivflöde. Sjukdomen delas in i primärt SS (pSS) och sekundärt SS (sSS). SS är globalt utspridd och beräknas drabba 1-3 % av befol...
Objective: To evaluate a novel methodology using industrial scanners as a reference, and assess in vivo accuracy of 3 intraoral scanners (IOS) and conventional impressions. Further, to evaluate IOS precision in vivo. Methods: Four reference-bodies were bonded to the buccal surfaces of upper premolars and incisors in five subjects. After three refer...
