High impact information on Toothbrushing

  • In ultrafiltrates of saliva collected at the same time as the whole saliva, testosterone concentrations after toothbrushing were unchanged [8].
  • Animals rendered essentially free of detectable BP/P by a single scaling, 10 days of tetracycline therapy, and toothbrushing three times per week were immunized with P. intermedia 1447 or were sham immunized with phosphate-buffered saline [9].
  • Toothbrushing with a sodium fluoride-positive control dentifrice for two-week periods always produced positive remineralization of the lesions, and similar use of a placebo always produced mean mineral loss [10].
  • The purpose of this study was to compare in vivo fluoride accumulation in enamel and in enamel lesions from a single topical fluoride application and daily toothbrushing with a fluoride dentifrice [11].
  • Increase in the rate as a function of time after toothbrushing seemed to be due to the increase in population of bacteria which could reduce nitrite to NO [12].

Associations of Toothbrushing with chemical compounds

  • Fluoride content values increased by 25-30 micrograms/cm2 during a single topical application, as compared with 10-15 micrograms/cm2 during seven weeks of toothbrushing [11].
  • The cationic nature of the chlorhexidine molecule also means that the activity of the agent is rapidly reduced in the presence of anionic agents, specifically those found within certain types of toothpaste; thus care is required when using normal toothbrushing alongside chlorhexidine [23].
  • Triclosan (25% of the dose) and zinc (24%) were retained in the mouth immediately after toothbrushing and a single mouthrinse [24].
  • A 3-yr daily supervised toothbrushing study with a double blind design was conducted to evaluate the anticaries effectiveness of a 1.14% sodium monofluorophosphate (MFP) dentifrice (1500 ppm F) compared to a 0.76% MFP dentifrice (1000 ppm F) [25].
  • Plaque was controlled using toothbrushing and topical applications of 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate [26].
 

Gene context of Toothbrushing

  • This was related to four dexterity tests (Jebsen-Taylor Hand Function test, Nine-hole Peg test, Box and Block test, Toothbrushing Ability test), a grip strength measure, and a cognitive measure (Allen Cognitive Level Test) [27].
  • BACKGROUND/AIM: The purpose of the present investigation was to determine the effect of self-performed supragingival plaque removal using either manual (Crest Complete) or power (Braun 3D Plaque Remover) toothbrushing on supra and subgingival plaque composition [28].
  • In Part 2, the efficacy of toothbrushing was studied after the students had received professional instruction [29].
  • The mean roughness (Ra) was measured with an optical sensor (FRT MicroProf) before and after toothbrushing [30].
  • No statistically significant difference in roughness was found before and after simulated toothbrushing for the Amalcap amalgam, Esthet-X resin composite, TPH Spectrum resin composite, d.SIGN ceramic and the experimental ceramic [30].
