  • Comparison of absorbed doses and organ doses measured with thermoluminescent dosimeters and Gafchromic film for cone beam computed tomography examination of the posterior mandibular region in a head phantom
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology and Oral Radiology. - : Elsevier. - 2212-4403 .- 2212-4411. ; 136:6, s. 769-776
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Objectives: We aimed to map the correlation between thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) and Gafchromic film for measuring absorbed doses and to compare minimum, maximum, and mean absorbed doses over larger regions of interest and at various craniofacial organs and tissues during cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) exposure of the mandibular third molar region. Study Design: We positioned TLDs at 75 measurement points in a head phantom. Gafchromic film was cut to the same shape as the 5 levels of the phantom and was placed on top of the TLDs. Both dosimetry methods thus included the surface of each level simultaneously. CBCT scans were made using a 5 × 5 cm field of view and a rotation angle of 200°. Measurements included absorbed dose distributions, doses at all 75 points, and minimum, maximum, and mean doses within organs and tissues. Results: The correlation of point-dose measurements at all TLD sites with doses measured on film was strong (R2 = 0.9687), with greatest correlation at lower doses (<2 mGy). Large deviations between TLD and film measurements of minimum and maximum doses and absorbed doses to the organs occurred at all 5 levels. TLD positioning failed to cover several organ sites; for these, only absorbed dose measurements from the film were available. Conclusions: TLDs were unable to sample dose distributions and gradients accurately. The characteristics of Gafchromic LD-V1 film make it a favorable alternative in dental CBCT dosimetry.

  • Evaluation of Panoramic Radiographs in Relation to the Mandibular Third Molar and to Incidental Findings in an Adult Population
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: European journal of dentistry. - : Thieme Medical Publishers. - 1305-7456 .- 1305-7464. ; 15:2, s. 266-272
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • OBJECTIVES:  The aim was to evaluate the characteristics of the mandibular third molars, especially in relation to the inferior alveolar nerve. Further aims were to investigate incidental findings in panoramic radiographs in an adult population, and to investigate image quality related to patient positioning.MATERIALS AND METHODS:  From a previous study with 451 randomly selected adult participants who lived in Sweden, 442 panoramic radiographs from four dental public health clinics were used. The third molars' characteristics and relation to inferior alveolar nerve were evaluated. Incidental findings and patient positioning were recorded.STATISTICAL ANALYSIS:  Frequency analysis was used to investigate the occurrence of all findings and their possible interconnections. Whether the patients' age or gender had an impact or not was also analyzed.RESULTS:  The third molars were erupted in vertical position among 73% regardless of age. When retained or semi-retained, they were most commonly in mesioangular positions. The inferior alveolar nerve was located inferior to the roots in 52%, whereas an overlapped position was most common if the third molar was retained (90%), semi-retained (83%) or the age was less than 30 years (66%). Common incidental findings were apical radiolucencies, idiopathic osteosclerosis, and tooth fragments. Suboptimal patient positioning was found in one-third of the radiographs.CONCLUSIONS:  Panoramic radiography is a useful method to evaluate third molar prior to surgical removal and may be the only image required. Most incidental findings on panoramic radiographs does not seem to require any further odontological management.

  • Radiographic imaging in relation to the mandibular third molar : a survey among oral surgeons in Sweden
  • 2022
  • Ingår i: Clinical Oral Investigations. - : Springer. - 1432-6981 .- 1436-3771. ; 26, s. 2073-2083
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • OBJECTIVES: To query the experience of oral surgeons concerning referral routines and preferences for radiographic imaging modality before surgical removal of mandibular third molars and investigate factors that influence imaging modality preferences.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Members of the Swedish Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (n = 280) were invited to participate in a web-based digital survey concerning their experiences and use of three imaging modalities in pre-surgical assessment of mandibular third molar removal. The survey comprised multiple-choice questions and four cases depicted in images; respondents reported whether they would supplement the cases with other images and, if so, from which modality.RESULTS: The response rate was 64%. Panoramic radiographs were most commonly used in pre-surgical planning (response options: always or often), significant difference between professions (p = 0.039), and considered to facilitate treatment planning (87%), as was CBCT (82%); for 51%, CBCT reduced post-operative complications. Preferred modality for localizing the mandibular canal was fairly evenly distributed and for non-complex case, significant difference between subgroups of OMFS surgeons was found (p = 0.003) as to preference for intraoral radiographs.CONCLUSIONS: A majority of respondents received a report within 2 weeks of their referral for CBCT and would read the report and view the images before surgery. Image modality preference differed depending on case complexity, with a greater perceived need for CBCT. Profession and practical experience affected choice.CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Choice of imaging modality in mandibular third molar assessment is also important from dose delivery and social economy standpoints.

  • Visibility of anatomical landmarks in the region of the mandibular third molar, a comparison between a low-dose and default protocol of CBCT
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: Acta Odontologica Scandinavica. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 0001-6357 .- 1502-3850. ; 81:6, s. 449-455
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • OBJECTIVE: Optimization of radiographic examinations is essential for radiation protection. The objective of the study was to investigate the clinical applicability of a low-dose CBCT protocol as compared to the default for pre-surgical evaluation of mandibular third molars.MATERIAL & METHODS: Forty-eight patients (62 teeth) referred for pre-surgical mandibular third molar investigation were recruited after justification for CBCT. Two CBCT scans of each site were made using a default protocol and a low-dose protocol (Veraviewepocs 3D F40, J Morita Corp, Kyoto, Japan). The low-dose protocol had the same tube potential (90 kV) and exposure time (9.4 s) as the default, but with reduced tube current, from 5 mA to 2 mA. Four observers evaluated the visibility of five relevant anatomical variables. Image quality was ranked on a 3-point scale as diagnostically acceptable, doubtful, or unacceptable. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test compared differences between the two protocols. The significance level was set at p ≤ .05.RESULTS: No significant differences were found between the two protocols for any observer regarding the visibility of the relationship and proximity between the roots and the mandibular canal; root morphology; and possible root resorption of the second molar. The periodontal ligament differed significantly in visibility between the two protocols (p ≤ .05).CONCLUSIONS: This study indicates that a low-dose CBCT protocol with a 60% reduction of the tube current provides, in most cases, acceptable image quality for pre-surgical assessment of mandibular third molars. Optimization of CBCT protocols should be a priority according to recommended guidelines.

  • 2024
  • Ingår i: Pediatric Rheumatology. - : BioMed Central (BMC). - 1546-0096. ; 22:1
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • BackgroundStress in patients with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) has been found to be associated with orofacial pain, psychological distress, jaw dysfunction and loss of daily activities in a cross-sectional study. The aim of this study was to investigate the relations between stress and change of stress over time versus changes in orofacial pain, psychosocial factors and jaw function over a two-year period in patients with JIA.MethodsThis is a two-year prospective follow-up study involving 40 JIA patients. At baseline (2015) the median age was 12 years and at two-year follow up (2018) 14 years. The JIA patients were examined clinically and with questionnaires at baseline and follow-up with the diagnostic criteria for temporomandibular disorders (DC/TMD) and completed the same set of DC/TMD questionnaires regarding orofacial pain symptoms and psychosocial factors.ResultsChange in stress was associated with change in catastrophizing, psychological distress as well as limitation in general function and jaw function.ConclusionsThis study emphasizes the importance of maintaining a low stress level in patients with JIA since an increase in stress level over a two-year period seems to impair jaw function as well as psychological distress and catastrophizing.

  • Juvenile idiopathic arthritis and the temporomandibular joint : a case-control study of magnetic resonance imaging findings in relation to clinical and psychosocial factors
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: European Journal of Paediatric Dentistry. - : Società Italiana di Odontoiatria Infantile. - 1591-996X .- 2035-648X. ; 24:1, s. 69-76

    • AimIn juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a particularly challenging joint to assess both clinically and with imaging. The aim of this article is to investigate TMJ magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in relation to clinical and psychosocial factors in patients with JIA and healthy individuals related to TMJ arthritis in JIA.Material and methods In total, 45 patients (6–16 years) with JIA and 16 healthy age- and sex-matched controls were examined according to the diagnostic criteria for temporomandibular disorders (DC/TMD). The subjects answered questionnaires about psychosocial factors (pain intensity, pain-related disability, depression, stress, catastrophising, pain locations, and jaw function) and underwent bilateral MRI of the TMJ.ResultsThere were no significant differences between JIA patients and healthy individuals in any of the TMJ MRI findings. Moderate/severe changes among JIA patients were found only for effusion, synovial thickening, condylar flattening, and erosion, with no moderate/severe changes in healthy individuals. In JIA patients, orofacial pain intensity was related to TMJ bone marrow oedema, and pain in jaw muscles during jaw function was related to TMJ bone marrow oedema and erosion. There were no significant correlations between psychosocial aspects and MRI findings.ConclusionsThis study indicates a substantial overlap of TMJ MRI findings in both the inflammatory domain and the damage domain between JIA patients and healthy individuals. In JIA patients, the inflammatory MRI sign of bone marrow oedema seems to influence orofacial pain intensity.

  • The Temporomandibular Joint in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis : Psychosocial, clinical, imaging and parotid saliva biomarkers
  • 2024
  • Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the most common rheumatic disease in children. The disease can affect the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and cause orofacial growth disturbances, pain, and jaw dysfunction. TMJ arthritis is often asymptomatic and therefore a challenging joint to diagnose. Clinical assessment of the TMJ is hampered by the low sensitivity and specificity of joint pain and the absence of physical findings early in the disease process. More specific methods are therefore needed for diagnosing TMJ arthritis. Saliva and blood are promising as diagnostic fluids for various diseases. Also, adolescents with chronic pain report high rates of psychosocial stress. Psychosocial stress may also be involved in JIA as a trigger and maintaining factor of the disease. Aim: The main aim of this thesis research was to investigate the relation between clinical variables, psychosocial factors, MRI findings, and inflammatory biomarkers in saliva and blood in relation to TMJ involvement in JIA. The secondary aim was to investigate the relation between stress and change in stress over time in comparison with orofacial pain, psychosocial factors, and jaw function in JIA patients. Methods: This was a cross-sectional case-control study and a longitudinal cohort study. Forty-five patients (6-16 years old) with JIA and 16 healthy age- and sex-matched healthy individuals were examined according to the diagnostic criteria for temporomandibular disorders (DC/TMD). The study subjects completed questionnaires regarding psychosocial factors and underwent bilateral MRI of their TMJs. Unstimulated parotid saliva and venous blood samples were collected. Biochemical analyses were performed using a multiplex platform electrochemiluminescence assay from Meso Scale Discovery (MSD) for measuring cytokine concentrations in saliva and blood. A two-year prospective follow-up study was performed in 40 JIA patients from our original baseline study. The JIA patients underwent the same clinical examination and completed the same questionnaires regarding psychosocial factors as in the baseline studies. Results: The JIA patients with orofacial pain had higher degrees of stress, depression, catastrophizing, and jaw dysfunction than did those JIA patients without such pain. These factors were also associated with orofacial pain intensity. Additionally, patients with orofacial pain had higher systemic inflammatory activity. In the two-year follow-up study, we observed that change in stress was associated with changes in catastrophizing, psychological distress, as well as limitations in both general and jaw functions. Regarding TMJ MRI findings, there were no significant differences between JIA patients and healthy individuals in either the inflammatory or damage domain. Moderate/severe TMJ changes in the inflammatory and damage domains were, however, only found in the JIA patients. Among JIA patients, orofacial pain intensity was correlated to TMJ bone marrow edema, and pain in jaw muscles during jaw function was related to both TMJ bone marrow edema and erosion. JIA patients had lower concentrations of interleukin receptor 6 (IL-6R) and glycoprotein 130 (gp130) in parotid saliva than in plasma. Higher concentrations of IL-6 were found in parotid saliva than in plasma. The members of the interleukin-6 family (i.e., IL-6, IL-6R, and gp130) in parotid saliva were found to be explanatory factors for the presence of bone marrow edema and effusion in the JIA patients. Conclusions: Orofacial pain in patients with JIA is associated with stress, psychological distress, jaw dysfunction, and loss of daily living activities. Pain intensity seems to be the major aspect related to these factors. Increased disease activity with more joint involvement seems to be an important factor contributing to orofacial pain in JIA. Myalgia, in addition to arthritis, seems to be an important source of orofacial pain in these patients. Maintaining a low stress level in JIA patients seems to be crucial, as an increase in stress level over a two-year period appears to negatively impact both jaw function as well as psychosocial distress and catastrophizing. There was an overlap of TMJ MRI findings regarding signs of inflammatory and bone tissue changes between JIA patients and healthy individuals. Among, JIA patients, the presence of inflammatory MRI signs, and bone marrow edema seems to worsen orofacial pain intensity. The IL-6 family in parotid saliva is associated with TMJ bone marrow edema and effusion in patients with JIA, suggesting that IL-6 has promising properties as a parotid saliva biomarker of TMJ inflammatory activity. In addition there seems to be local production of the IL-6 family in the parotid gland in JIA patients and healthy individuals. However, parotid saliva does not seem to reflect the plasma content in terms of the investigated biomarkers in JIA.

  • Unstimulated Parotid Saliva Sampling in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis and Healthy Controls : A Proof-of-Concept Study on Biomarkers
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: Diagnostics (Basel). - : MDPI. - 2075-4418. ; 10:4
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The aims of this proof-of-concept study were to develop a collecting method for unstimulated parotid saliva in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) patients and healthy children and to investigate if inflammatory biomarkers could be detected in these samples. Forty-five children with JIA (median age of 12 years and 25th-75th percentile of 10-15 years; 33 girls and 12 boys) and 16 healthy children as controls (median age of 13 years and 25-75th percentile of 10-13 years; 11 girls and 5 boys) were enrolled in this study. Unstimulated parotid saliva was collected with a modified Carlson-Crittenden collector. The salivary flow rate and salivary concentrations of total protein and inflammatory mediators were assessed. The Meso Scale Discovery electrochemiluminescence immunoassay was used for analyzing protein concentrations and the inflammatory biomarkers. Sufficient parotid saliva volumes to be analyzed could be collected with the collection device. JIA patients had a lower sampling saliva volume (p = 0.008) and saliva flow rate (p = 0.039) than controls. The total protein concentrations and inflammatory biomarkers were measured in the last six healthy subjects. The median protein concentration was 1312 mu g/mL (25th percentile: 844 mu g/mL and 75th percentile: 2062 mu g/mL; n = 6) and quantifiable concentrations of 39 inflammatory proteins could be assessed in these samples. In conclusion, this study indicates that the saliva sampling method, as used in the present study, is able to collect sufficient sample volumes in children, and that it is possible to analyze various inflammatory biomarkers in the collected saliva.
