gold crowns

I think there is still place for gold crowns, in particular partial crowns on second molars. It's a nice tooth saving restoration, as opposed to the huge amount of dentin reduction that is necessary for a PFM crown. The sinus tract appeared after the dentist had prepped the crown on tooth 17. He had the crown finished, and placed it temporarily. 2 weeks of Ca(OH)2 was not enough to let the sinus tract disappear completely, but I was pretty confident it would work out well, so I decided to finish. I made a BU of composite and cemented the crown definitively Today I did the recall, it has healed up nicely - Marga - ROOTS  ( More )

Protein Linked To Elevated Body Mass Index

MINNEAPOLIS, Feb 22, 2007 (UPI via COMTEX) -- U.S. scientists say they've discovered an abnormal protein is linked with elevated body mass index in people of American Indian and Mexican ancestry.

Professor Gary Nelsestuen and colleagues at the University of  Minnesota found the variant of a common blood protein, apolipoprotein C1, is also linked with obesity and type 2 diabetes.

The scientists say the abnormal protein might promote metabolic efficiency and storage of body fat when food is abundant. That could  have provided a survival advantage to ancient American Indians when food was scarce.

Nelsestuen says the discovery can be used to identify those who are at risk for diabetes and to guide diet and lifestyle choices to prevent diabetes.

The finding appears in the online issue of the International Journal of Obesity.
What do you do with gangrenous primary teeth when a child has acute pain in this case i am asking about the first primary lower molar do you try to heal it endodontially first in 8 year old when they are (the milk molars i mean)supposed to maintain space or when a child has acute pain and you try to maintain dranage and then, the child still has pain do you extract this teeth as they may be the reason for abscessed tooth if left untreated i would be very gratefull if i can receive as many answers as possible thank you in advance, Angella
 

I usually try to save the teeth ...do extirpation well, but carefully, clean with a lot of hydrogen peroxid... ordinate antibioticas and analgetics...it is nesseserry to clean all root canals ..ussualy there are 3...put gently a cotton with some antiseptic and analgetic like sol. chlumsky and jodoforme ...do rtg ...after few days, u will continue with the terapy, if there is not a pain ..rtg will help u to see what is hapening with the permanent first premolar...Dr. Elena
