Publication Open Access Possible Medical Aetiological Factors and Characteristics of Molar Incisor Hypomineralisation in a Group of Turkish Children(2013-12-15) DURMUŞ, BAŞAK; Durmus, Basak; Abbasoglu, Zerrin; Peker, Sertac; Kargul, BetulPublication Open Access Changes in oral health-related quality of life after treatment of molar incisor hypomineralisation using Glass Hybrid Restorations(2022-10-01) TUĞCU, NİHAN; SEZER, BERKANT; DURMUŞ, BAŞAK; KARGÜL, BETÜL; TUĞCU N., SEZER B., Caliskan C., DURMUŞ B., KARGÜL B.Objective: To assess the changes in children\"s oral health-related quality of life following the treatment of severely affected molar-incisor hypomineralisation with Glass Hybrid Restorative System (GH) after selective caries removal. Method: The observational cross-sectional study was conducted at the Marmara University, School of Dentistry, Department of Pediatric Dentistry, Istanbul, Turkey.. Children aged 11-14 years (n = 55) who were diagnosed with MIH and had finished their dental treatment from November 2018 to December 2019, were included. The children\"s MIH-affected teeth were treated with GH after SCR. Participants answered the Child Perceptions Questionnaire (CPQ11?14) prior to their dental treatment and 6 months after the treatment. Results: Of the fifty-five patients, 40 patients (24 girls-16 boys) completed baseline and follow-up data. The mean age of the children was 11.85 +/- 1.02 years. The overall CPQ score ranged from 3-83 (average 33.27 +/- 16.46) at baseline and 0-61 (average 11.67 +/- 11.21) at follow up. The emotional well-being among children was the highest score at baseline. A significant decrease (p < 0.001) in the mean values was observed for both the overall CPQ scores and for the scores of the oral symptoms, functional limitations, and social-emotional well-being limitation. All subdomains showed large effect sizes and oral symptom limitation domain presented the greatest effect. Wilcoxon Rank test was used to determine the statistical significance of the changes and the magnitude of change was determined by calculating and classifying the effect size. Conclusion: Restorative treatment with GH following selective caries removal positively influenced the oral health -related quality of life of children with severe molar-incisor hypomineralisation.Publication Open Access Assessment of dental fear in children with molar-incisor hypomineralization(2022-01-01) TUĞCU, NİHAN; DURMUŞ, BAŞAK; KARGÜL, BETÜL; SEZER B., Tuğcu N., Çalışkan C., DURMUŞ B., KARGÜL B.© 2022 Polish Dental AssociationIntroduction: Dental fear is a common unpleasant emotional response that occurs in situations related to dental treatment. Since children affected by molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) receive much more dental treatment than their healthy peers, these children may have more dental fear and behavioral problems. Objectives: The aim of the study was to assess the relation between the presence and severity of MIH and dental fear. Material and methods: Study group involved a sample of 127 children, aged between 8 and 12 years with MIH, showing a high-risk of caries, and 99 children were included into control group. In the wake of intra-oral examination according to the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry guideline and DMFT/dmft indices, Children’s Fear Survey Schedule – Dental Subscale (CFSS-DS) was applied to each child. Mean value of independent groups for normally distributed data was compared using independent samples t-test. Spearman’s correlation was applied for correlations between DMFT/dmft scores and CFSS-DS scores. P-value of < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: The final number of individuals affected by MIH in this study was 127 with approximately equal numbers for each age group. The mean CFSS-DS scores were 31.41 ± 10.73 for the MIH-group, and 31.60 ± 6.21 for the controls, respectively. The mean values did not differ significantly between children with and without MIH (p = 0.870). There were also no statistically significant differences in severe MIH (31.38 ± 10.93) compared with the control group (31.60 ± 6.21) (p = 0.890). Conclusions: The study’s findings revealed that there is no relation between the existence and severity of MIH and dental fear.Publication Open Access Microleakage in class V cavities prepared using conventional method versus Er:YAG laser restored with glass ionomer cement or resin composite(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2017-03-04) DURMUŞ, BAŞAK; Peker, Sertac; Giray, Figen Eren; Durmus, Basak; Bekiroglu, Nural; Kargul, Betul; Ozcan, MutluThis study evaluated the effect of tooth preparation method (diamond bur vs. Er:YAG laser) on the microleakage levels of glass ionomers and resin composite. Human permanent premolars (N = 80) were randomly divided into two groups (n = 40). Cavities on half of the teeth were prepared using diamond bur for enamel and carbide bur for dentin and the other half using Er: YAG laser. The teeth were randomly divided into four groups according to the restoration materials, namely (a) ChemFil Rock (CFR), (b) IonoluxAC (IAC), (c) EQUIA system (EQA) and one resin composite (d) AeliteLS (ALS) (n = 10 per group). Microleakage (mu m) was assessed at the occlusal and gingival margins after dye penetration (0.5% basic fuchsine for 24 h). On the occlusal aspect, while the cavity preparation types significantly affected the microleakage for CFR (p = 0.015), IAC (p = 0.001) glass ionomer restorations, it did not show significant effect for glass ionomer EQA (p = 0.09) and resin composite ALS (p = 0.2). Er: YAG laser presented less microleakage compared to bur preparation in all groups except for EQA. On the gingival aspect, microleakage decreased significantly for CFR (p = 0.02), IAC (p = 0.001), except for EQA where significant increase was observed (p = 0.001) with the use of Er: YAG laser. Microleakage decrease was not significant at the gingival region between diamond bur and Er: YAG laser for ALS (p = 0.663). At the occlusal and gingival sites in all groups within each preparation method, microleakage level was not significant.Publication Open Access Two-Year Survival of High-Viscosity Glass Ionomer in Children with Molar Incisor Hypomineralization(KARGER, 2020-05-15) DURMUŞ, BAŞAK; Durmus, Basak; Sezer, Berkant; Tugcu, Nihan; Caliskan, Cansu; Bekiroglu, Nural; Kargul, BetulObjective: We assessed the clinical survival of a high-viscosity glass ionomer (HVGI) at the 2-year follow-up to restore molar incisors severely affected by hypomineralization after selective carious tissue removal (SCR). The null hypothesis tested was that there are no differences in the overall survival times in the categories of the variables of interest. Methods: A total of 134 fully erupted first molar incisors with hypomineralization, cavitated and with moderate-to-deep carious lesions without hypersensitivity or pain (MIH treatment need index 2a-c), were included in the study. HVGI (Equia Forte (R); GC, Tokyo, Japan) restorations were applied after SCR to soft carious dentin. The follow-up lasted 2 years. The end point was defined as the absence of endodontic and restorative complications. Two-year, and 18-, 12-, and 6-month survival probabilities and standard errors were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Survival probabilities according to patient gender, jaw, and lesion severity groups were compared using the log-rank test. Restorations were evaluated using the modified US Public Health Service criteria. Results: HVGI restorations showed cumulative survival probabilities of 95.5% at 6 months, 94% at 12 months, 87.5% at 18 months, and 87.5% at 24 months. Survival probabilities according to patient gender, jaw, and lesion severity groups were not statistically significantly different (p > 0.05). Therefore, the null hypothesis was accepted. Conclusion: Following SCR, HVGI restoration provided moderate survival probabilities, suggesting that the SCR technique is effective.
