Öğe Bruxism: Is it a new sign of the cardiovascular diseases?(2011) Atilgan Z.; Buyukkaya R.; Yaman F.; Tekbas G.; Atilgan S.; Gunay A.; Palanci Y.Aim: To determine the relationship between bruxism and cardiovascular diseases. Materials and Methods: 120 patients who referred to the Dentistry Faculty with the complaint of bruxism were selected. All patients gave informed consent for participation in the study. All of the patients were examined and bruxism was classified. And also these were examined by B-mode ultrasound to measure the Intima Media Thickness (IMT) at the far wall of the common carotid artery. A wide range of vascular risk factors including age, gender, body mass index, and previous history were surveyed. Spearman correlation analysis was performed to ascertain quantitative comparison, Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal-Wallis test were used for comparison of means Results: There were 66 (55%) male and 54 (45%) female patients, with a female to male ratio of 1/1.2. The mean age was 35.6 ± 1,25 years (range 18-65 years). In the analysis of bruxism classification and IMT there was a statistical significance between bruxism classification subgroup 1, 2, 3 and IMT. There was no statistical significance between bruxism classification Subgroup 4 and IMT due to the small number of the patients (n=12). Conclusions: Stressful situations can cause both bruxism and cardiovascular disease such as coronary artery diseases, hypertension, arrhythmias, cardiomyopathy. The statistical analysis supported this hypothesis. However, we need to new studies with large number of samples to confirm this hypothesis. Clearly, future studies in this field will need to take into consideration the influence of the following variables: age, use of medication or drugs, smoking habits, and other sleep disorders.Öğe A case of Beckwith- Wiedemann syndrome with peculiar dental findings(Ariesdue Srl, 2016) Callea M.; Yavuz I.; Clarich G.; Gunay A.; Vinciguerra A.; Unal M.; Sahbaz C.Background Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS, OMIM 130650) is a rare genetic disorder characterised by overgrowth, tumor predisposition and congenital malformations. Few systemic manifestations and oral features have been reported so far. Case report We report on a case of BWS, describing all features expanding the knowledge on oro-dentofacial phenotypes, along with a review of the literature.Öğe Investigation of periodontal parameters, total antioxidant status and ferritin levels in patients with thalassemia major(University of Dicle, 2015) Gunay A.; Dogru A.G.; Isik B.; Soker M.; Gunay A.Our aim was to investigate periodontal status and total antioxidant status (TAS), ferritin levels of serum and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) in patients with thalassemia major. This study comprised 73 individuals aged between 11 and 16 years, divided into 3 groups; Group TMS: periodontally healthy 23 patients with thalassemia major, Group TMG: 25 patients with gingivitis and thalassemia major, and Group C: gingival and systemically healthy 25 individuals. Firstly, Plaque Index (PI), Gingival Index (GI) and Probing Depth (PD) data of all individuals in the study were recorded. For serum samples, 5 cc blood was taken from the antecubital region of the forearm of every individual. At the same time 4 samples of GCF were taken from the maxillar incisive of every individual, collected by standard Periopaper strips. In the comparison of total mouth of the TMG group with the C and TMS groups, GI, PI, PD and GCF volume values were higher in the TMG group as expected (p<0.001). In the evaluation of the TMS and TMG groups in comparison with the C group, statistically significant differences were determined in the ferritin and TAS values of both GCF and serum (P<0.05). No correlation was found in the clinical and biochemical parameters investigated in serum and GCF of the TMG and TMS groups (p>0.05). In this study of relatively few patients, the conclusion was reached that thalassemia major was not a direct risk factor in the formation of gingivitis. Further studies are needed to investigate the relationship between more severe periodontal disease and thalassemia major in different age groups.Öğe The oral findings of the gigantic patient with gingival enlargement-(A case)(2009) Kaya F.A.; Saribas E.; Dogru A.G.; Dag A.; Gunay A.This syndrome results from a chronic exposure to GH (Growth Hormone) leading to the classic clinical features that the diagnosis seems to be easy. The early diagnosis and intervention may prevent irreversible changes associated with chronic overproduction of GH (as well IGF-1) and may also normalise life expectancy. These patients have an increased mortality rate from systemic sequela of hypersomatotrophism in 2-4 times that of the healthy population. The facial scene changes are generally coarsening of features prognathism and diastema (widely spaced teeth). In this case report it is aimed to represent the periodontal surgery findings of a 24 years old male gigantism patient suffering from gingival enlargement in the site of 11 and 12 teeth who applied to Dicle University Faculty of Dentistry Department of Periodontology. After oral hygiene instruction, initial periodontal treatment was performed and after these the patient was operated. The patients periodic follow ups are still lasting by three months intervals.Öğe The typical appearance and CBCT images of the patient with Papillon-Lefevre syndrome: A case report(University of Dicle, 2015) Tumen D.S.; Tumen E.C.; Gunay A.; Lacin N.; Cetin S.G.Papillon-Lefevre syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder, which is transmitted with an estimated frequency of one to four per million individuals. It is characterized by palmar-plantar hyperkeratosis, and rapid destruction of the alveolar bone and periodontium of both the primary and permanent dentitions, commencing at the time of tooth eruption. Early diagnosed and rehabilitation of children with Papillon-Lefevre syndrome will go a long way in helping them interact normally and integrate with their peers. However, the rarity with which this entity appears, along with its complex characteristics, often make it difficult to treat. The aim of this case report is to present the early diagnosed of a 5-year-old boy with Papillon-Lefevre syndrome associated with severe periodontitis in which the premature exfoliation of primary maxillary and mandibular incisor teeth and maxillary primary first molars are observed, and with hyperkeratosis of the palms, knees and soles.
