Objective To explore and analyze the risk factors affecting psychological status of adolescent orthodontic patients in stomatology department, and to develop intervention strategies according to the results. Methods A total of 186 cases of adolescent orthodontic patients in stomatology department from September 2012 to September 2015 were selected, and psychological status was investigated by Chinese Middle School Students Mental Health Scale (MMHI-60 scale) and Symptom Self-rating Scale (SCL-90).The patients were divided into observation group (with psychological problems) and control group (without psychological problems) according to the psychological status scale scores. Univariate descriptive analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to determine related factors of the possible influencing factors, and the intervention strategies were developed. Results The factors such as social roles, living area, single parent, only child, internal and external tropism, neuroticism, being given health education, malocclusion severities of the deformities were closely related to psychological status of adolescent orthodontic patients in stomatology department (χ2=2.534-44.297, P<0.05 or 0.01). The independent risk factors were classified as high to low according to the degrees of danger: severe malocclusion (OR=3.578, P=0.000), instability emotional (OR=2.934,P=0.000), workers (OR=1.857, P=0.011) and rural life (OR=1.632, P=0.014), while the factors such as outgoing personality (OR=0.628, P=0.008) and being given health education (OR=0.746, P=0.010) were protective factors. Conclusions The factors such as severe malocclusion, instability emotional, workers,rural life,outgoing personality and health education are the related risk factors affecting psychological status of adolescent orthodontic patients in stomatology department, and psychological health intervention should be strengthened in the clinical practice to improve the psychological status and compliance.

BACKGROUND: Heal-all oral biofilm is a material utilized in repairing oral mucosa and soft tissues defects and characterized by degradation, easily preparation, long preserved duration, convenient transportation and good ossification, which has been widely used in dental implant as guided bone regeneration materials.OBJECTIVE: To check the clinical effective of Heal-all oral biofllm on guided bone regeneration in dental implant.METHODS: A total of 72 patients with bone defects in the implantation area were selected as subjects, who were divided into control group and experimental group at random. Bone defects around implants were repaired by guided bone regeneration technique with BME-10X medical collagen membrane and Heal-all oral biofilm respectively. X-ray and clinical examination were taken at 1 and 3 months after implantation. The amount of new.formed bone tissue was evaluated when stage Ⅱ operation was performed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In stage Ⅱ operation, osseointegration was formed between implants and bone tissue in all 72 patients. The average rate of bone formation was 92% in the experimental group while 91% in the control group. All implants were successfully repaired with implant denture. Occlusal function was restored successfully with all 72 implants during the follow-up period of 3-24 months after restoration. As an alternative option of BME-10X medical collagen membrane, Heal-all oral biofilm can be used in guided bone formation clinically.

Orthodontic tooth movement elicits alveolar bone remodeling and orofacial pain that is manifested by tooth mechanical hyperalgesia. Nerve growth factor (NGF) is upregulated in periodontium and may modulate tooth mechanical hyperalgesia. The objectives were to examine the role of NGF in tooth mechanical hyperalgesia and to elucidate the underlying mechanisms. Tooth mechanical hyperalgesia was induced by ligating closed coil springs between incisors and molars in Sprague-Dawley rats. Retrograde labeling was performed by periodontal administration of fluor-conjugated NGF and the detection of fluorescence in trigeminal ganglia (TG). Lentivirus vectors carrying NGF shRNA were employed to knockdown the expression of NGF in TG. The administration of agonists, antagonists, and virus vectors into TG and periodontium was conducted. Tooth mechanical hyperalgesia was examined through the threshold of biting withdrawal. Our results revealed that tooth movement elicited tooth mechanical hyperalgesia that could be alleviated by NGF neutralizing antibody and that NGF was upregulated in periodontium (mainly in periodontal fibroblasts) and TG. Retrograde labeling revealed that periodontal NGF was retrogradely transported to TG after day 1. Acid-sensing ion channel 3 (ASIC3) and NGF were co-expressed in trigeminal neurons and the percentage of co-expression was significantly higher following tooth movement. The administration of NGF and NGF neutralizing antibody into TG could upregulate and downregulate the expression of ASIC3 in TG, respectively. NGF aggravated tooth mechanical hyperalgesia that could be alleviated by ASIC3 antagonist (APETx2). Moreover, NGF neutralizing antibody mitigated tooth mechanical hyperalgesia that could be recapitulated by ASIC3 agonist (GMQ). NGF-based gene therapy abolished tooth mechanical hyperalgesia and downregulated ASIC3 expression. Taken together, in response to force stimuli, periodontal fibroblasts upregulated the expressions of NGF that was retrogradely transported to TG, where NGF elicited tooth mechanical hyperalgesia through upregulating ASIC3. NGF-based gene therapy is a viable method in alleviating tooth-movement-induced mechanical hyperalgesia.
