  • Arginine and Caries Prevention : A Systematic Review
  • 2016
  • In: Caries Research. - : S. Karger. - 0008-6568 .- 1421-976X. ; 50:4, s. 383-393
  • Research review (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Objectives: To evaluate the available evidence that the use of arginine-containing dental care products prevents the development of new caries lesions and the progression of existing lesions. Search Methods: We performed a systematic literature search of databases including PubMed, the Cochrane Library and EMBASE. Selection Criteria: We selected randomized controlled trials of treatment with arginine in fluoride-containing dental products measuring dental caries incidence or progression in children, adults and elderly subjects. Data Collection and Analysis: Two review authors independently assessed trials for risk of bias and evaluated overall study quality using the GRADE classification. Main Results: Due to conflicts of interest and weak transferability to Swedish conditions, no conclusions can be drawn from studies on the effects of arginine-fluoride toothpaste in children. Arginine-containing toothpaste costs about 40% more than basic fluoride toothpaste; to determine whether it is more cost-effective, the higher cost must be considered in relation to any additional caries-preventive effect. The literature review also disclosed some questionable research ethics: in several of the studies, the children in the control group used non-fluoride toothpaste. Toothpaste without fluoride is not as effective against dental caries as the standard treatment - fluoride toothpaste - which has a well -documented effect. This contravenes the fundamental principles of research ethics. Conclusion: At present there is insufficient evidence in support of a caries-preventive effect for the inclusion of arginine in toothpastes. More rigorous studies, and studies which are less dependent on commercial interests, are required. (C) 2016 S. Karger AG, Basel

  • Longevity of posterior resin composite restorations in adults : A systematic review
  • 2015
  • In: Journal of Dentistry. - : Elsevier BV. - 0300-5712 .- 1879-176X. ; 43:8, s. 934-954
  • Research review (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Objective: To conduct a systematic review of the literature on the longevity of posterior resin composite restorations in adults. Material and methods: A systematic literature search was conducted according to predetermined criteria for inclusion and exclusion. The studies selected were prospective clinical trials with a minimum follow-up time of 4 years, 40 restorations per experimental group and an annual attrition rate of less than 5%. Initially, abstracts and full-text articles were assessed independently and the assessment was subsequently agreed on by five reviewers. The methodological quality of the studies was assessed according to the Swedish Council on Health Technology Assessment (SBU) standard checklist for determining the extent to which studies meet basic quality criteria. Results: In all, the literature search identified 4275 abstracts and 93 articles were read in fulltext. There were eighteen studies which met the criteria for inclusion, eight of which were included in the analysis. There were 80 failures of restorations with a total follow-up time at risk for failure of 62,030 months. The overall incidence rate for all causes of failure was 1.55 lost restorations per 100 restoration years. The most common biological reason for failure (a total of 31 restorations) was secondary caries, with or without fracture of the restoration. The quality of the evidence was low. Conclusions: In an efficacy setting, the overall survival proportion of posterior resin composite restorations is high. The major reasons for failure are secondary caries and restoration fracture which supports the importance of adequate follow-up time. Clinical significance: The overall survival proportion of posterior composite restorations was high, but the results cannot be extrapolated to an effectiveness setting. The importance of adequate follow-up time is supported by the finding that secondary caries often occurred after 3 years or later.

  • Oral health and dental care of older persons-A systematic map of systematic reviews
  • 2018
  • In: Gerodontology. - : Wiley. - 0734-0664 .- 1741-2358. ; 35:4, s. 290-304
  • Research review (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Objectives: To examine the current knowledge on oral health status and dental care of older persons through a systematic mapping of systematic reviews of low or moderate risk of bias. Background: Geriatric dentistry covers all aspects of oral health and oral care of older persons. Oral health is part of general health and contributes to a person's physical, psychological and social wellbeing. Methods: A literature search was performed in three different databases (PubMed, The Cochrane Library and Cinahl) within 12 domains: Dental caries, periodontitis, Orofacial pain and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain, mucosal lesions, oral motor function, dry mouth, halitosis, interaction between oral status and other medical conditions, ability to interrelate and communicate, quality of life, ethics and organisation of dental care for older persons. Systematic reviews were identified and scrutinised, highlighting scientific knowledge and knowledge gaps. Results: We included 32 systematic reviews of which 14 were judged to be of low/moderate risk of bias. Most of the domains lack systematic reviews with low or moderate risk of bias. In two of the domains evidence was identified; in institutionalised people aged 65 or older, effective oral hygiene can prevent pneumonia. Furthermore, there is an evidence of a relationship between malnutrition (protein energy-related malnutrition, PEM) and poor appetite and edentulousness. Conclusions: There is an urgent need for further research and evidence-based knowledge within most domains in geriatric dentistry and in other fields related to oral health and dental care for older persons striving for multi-disciplinary research programmes.

  • Caries treatment in Swedish adults : effectiveness, costs and equity. A 4-year follow-up study of data from the Swedish national dental health register
  • 2016
  • In: Swedish Dental Journal. - : Swedish Dental Association. - 0347-9994. ; 40:2, s. 223-234
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Planering och styrning av tandvård på nationell nivå bör baseras på utvärderingar av jämlik fördelning, effektivitet och kostnader. Med inrättandet av tandhälsoregistret vid Socialstyrelsen öppnas möjligheter för studier av tandvårdens processer och resultat. Syftet med studien var att utifrån två identifierade kohorter longitudinellt följa och analysera frekvens och kostnader för ny fyllning eller tandkrona på tidigare restaurerad tand (omgörningar) samt relationen mellan förebyggande tandvårdsåtgärder i relation till reparativ och restaurativ tandvård orsakad av karies. Med hjälp av tandhälsoregistret studerades två kohorter omfattande den vuxna befolkningen. En longitudinell modell användes för uppföljning. I den första kohorten följdes 1 878 887 tänder hos 1 088 923 patienter mellan 42 och 48 månader. I den andra kohorten följdes 1 703 147 patienter under en period av mellan 48 och 54 månader. Fördelning av tandvård för olika åldersgrupper visade att kohorterna var representativa för hela patientgruppen. Fördelning av tandvårdsbesök varierade mellan 140 och 160 räknat per 1 000 invånare trots olika geografiska förutsättningar. Resultaten baserade på den första kohorten visar att 76% av tänderna inte fick någon ytterligare åtgärd med fyllning eller tandkrona under uppföljningsperioden, och att för resterande 24% av tänderna fick 77% endast en ny åtgärd. Det förelåg ingen könsskillnad, däremot skillnader på upp till tre intakta tänder mellan olika regioner. Resultat från den andra kohorten visade heller ingen könsskillnad. De genomsnittliga kostnaderna för reparativa åtgärder på grund av karies ökade gradvis i relation till ökade kostnader för förebyggande åtgärder. Vidare var kostnaderna för reparativa åtgärder lägre ju längre tid som följde mellan förebyggande åtgärder. Det nationella tandhälsoregistret utgör en värdefull källa för forskning om tandvård. Longitudinella registerdata för reparationer och preventiva åtgärder kan användas för att studera effektivitet, kostnader och jämlik fördelning av tandvård. Resultaten har en potential för förbättrad styrning av tandvården.

  • Caries as experienced by adult caries active patients : a qualitative study
  • 2019
  • In: Acta Odontologica Scandinavica. - : Taylor & Francis. - 0001-6357 .- 1502-3850. ; 77:1, s. 15-21
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • OBJECTIVE: In the western world, increased oral health has resulted in a skewed occurrence of caries disease where relatively few individuals now account for most caries disease. This study examines how adults with recurrent caries activity experience caries disease and treatment.MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study is based on qualitative data from individual interviews, which were subjected to qualitative content analysis. The interviews were semi-structured and thematic and an interview guide was used that consisted of two main areas with open ended questions. Meaning units were condensed and labelled with a code which preserved the core content of the reduced text. Codes were assigned to different subcategories according to their similarities or differences. Subcategories formed categories which describe the manifest content of the text.RESULTS: The domain "experience with caries" consisted of four subcategories that formed the main category Caries - an unwelcomed acquaintance. The domain "experience with caries treatment" consisted of three subcategories that formed the category Caries treatment - pain for gain.CONCLUSION: Comprehensive non-operative treatment and close follow-ups should precede restorations; this would probably gain insight in how to avoid new cavities to a greater extent. If to be supportive, information and advice about self-care given to individuals with recurrent cavities should be delivered with respect to the patient's feelings about their experience of dental caries.

  • Reimbursement systems influence prosthodontic treatment of adult patients
  • 2015
  • In: Acta Odontologica Scandinavica. - : Informa UK Limited. - 0001-6357 .- 1502-3850. ; 73:6, s. 414-420
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Objective. To evaluate the influence of reimbursement system and organizational structure on oral rehabilitation of adult patients with tooth loss. Materials and methods. Patient data were retrieved from the databases of the Swedish Social Insurance Agency. The data consisted of treatment records of patients aged 19 years and above claiming reimbursement for dental care from July 1, 2007 until June 30, 2009. Before July 1, 2008, a proportionately higher level of subsidy was available for dental care in patients 65 years and above, but thereafter the system was changed, so that the subsidy was the same, regardless of the patient's age. Prosthodontic treatment in patients 65 years and above was compared with that in younger patients before and after the change of the reimbursement system. Prosthodontic treatment carried out in the Public Dental Health Service and the private sector was also analyzed. Results. Data were retrieved for 722,842 adult patients, covering a total of 1,339,915 reimbursed treatment items. After the change of the reimbursement system, there was a decrease in the proportion of items in patients 65 years and above in relation to those under 65. Overall, there was a minimal change in the proportion of treatment items provided by the private sector compared to the public sector following the change of the reimbursement system. Conclusions. Irrespective of service provider, private or public, financial incentive such as the reimbursement system may influence the provision of prosthodontic treatment, in terms of volume of treatment.

  • Time to Assess Cost-Effectiveness of Technologies in Dentistry
  • 2016
  • In: International Journal of Dentistry and Oral Health. - : SciForschen. - 2378-7090. ; 2:5
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Objective: Health economic evaluations provide decision makers with important information regarding the cost-effectiveness of technologies. However, such evaluations are still rare in most dental areas, and there is furthermore a need for methodological development in estimating costeffectiveness within dentistry. The purpose of this paper is to give an overview of methods used for estimating cost-effectiveness, and provide guidance for performing health economic evaluations within dentistry.Methods: Available health economics methods are discussed and analysed according to their usefulness when assessing cost-effectiveness in dentistry.Results: All types of health economic analyses may be suitable for evaluation in dentistry. It is most important that the outcome should be relevant to the decision problem. For this reason, various clinical outcomes are often used, such as DMFT or mm adjustment, number of infections, construction survival, etc. depending on what technology is assessed. It would be of value to also use quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) as this is the most commonly used outcome measure in health economic evaluation, but this has rarely been done.Conclusion: There is a need for more health economic evaluations within dentistry to be able to use scarce resources efficiently. In this paper we discuss methods for how this can be done, with a focus on the use of outcome measures relevant for decision makers.

  • FRAMEWORK FOR SYSTEMATIC IDENTIFICATION OF ETHICAL ASPECTS OF HEALTHCARE TECHNOLOGIES: THE SBU APPROACH
  • 2015
  • In: International Journal of Technology Assessment in Health Care. - : Cambridge University Press. - 0266-4623 .- 1471-6348. ; 31:3, s. 124-130
  • Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
    • Objectives: Assessment of ethical aspects of a technology is an important component of health technology assessment (HTA). Nevertheless, how the implementation of ethical assessment in HTA is to be organized and adapted to specific regulatory and organizational settings remains unclear. The objective of this study is to present a framework for systematic identification of ethical aspects of health technologies. Furthermore, the process of developing and adapting the framework to a specific setting is described. Methods: The framework was developed based on an inventory of existing approaches to identification and assessment of ethical aspects in HTA. In addition, the framework was adapted to the Swedish legal and organizational healthcare context, to the role of the HTA agency and to the use of non-ethicists. The framework was reviewed by a group of ethicists working in the field as well as by a wider set of interested parties including industry, interest groups, and other potential users. Results: The framework consists of twelve items with sub-questions, short explanations, and a concluding overall summary. The items are organized into four different themes: the effects of the intervention on health, its compatibility with ethical norms, structural factors with ethical implications, and long term ethical consequences of using the intervention. Conclusions: In this study, a framework for identifying ethical aspects of health technologies is proposed. The general considerations and methodological approach to this venture will hopefully inspire and present important insights to organizations in other national contexts interested in making similar adaptations.
