    Dental and Dentofacial Problems in A Female Child With Toriello-Carey Syndrome: Changes in 3 Years
    (2016) Tirali, Resmiye Ebru; Ilhan, Banu; Sar, Cagla; Cehreli, Sevi Burcak; 0000-0001-6487-3984; 0000-0003-4966-9779; 27159668; HZK-4947-2023; AAD-2907-2020; AAD-6138-2021
    Toriello-Carey syndrome is a rare disease whose clinical manifestations are midline facial defects, laryngeal and pharyngeal hypoplasia, cardiac defect, and corpus callosum hypoplasia. Literature states that clinical manifestations are more evident in males. This is the second report in the literature which describes the dental and dentofacial features in an 8-year-old female patient with Toriello-Carey syndrome.

    Dental Anxiety and Oral Health-Related Quality of Life in Children Following Dental Rehabilitation under General Anesthesia or Intravenous Sedation: A Prospective Cross-Sectional Study
    (2018) Guney, S. E.; Araz, C.; Tirali, R. E.; Cehreli, S. B.; 0000-0002-4927-6660; 0000-0001-6487-3984; 30297563; AAJ-4576-2021; AAD-2907-2020; AAD-6138-2021
    Purpose: The study aimed to investigate dental anxiety and oral health-related quality of life among children undergoing dental rehabilitation under general anesthesia (GA) and intravenous sedation (IVS). Materials and Methods: Participants were 99 healthy children aged 3-5 or 6-12 years operated under GA or IVS. Dental anxiety before treatment and 1 month postoperatively were measured using the Frankl behavior scale (FBS), the venham picture test (VPT), the early childhood oral health impact scale (ECOHIS), and the children's fear survey schedule-dental subscale (CFSS-DS). Data were analyzed using Student's t-test and Mann-Whitney U-test. Results: ECOHIS scores decreased in all groups. VPT scores increased in the 3-5-year-olds treated under GA (P = 0.003). Postoperative CFSS-DS anxiety scores were lower in IVS groups. FBS scores were significantly higher for both age groups (P < 0.001). There was no effect of numbers of extracted or treated teeth. Conclusions: Dental rehabilitation under GA and IVS improved the quality of life and dental behavior. In the 6-12-year-olds, there was no statistically significant difference between children undergoing dental operations under GA and those undergoing dental operations under IVS. Dental anxiety decreased in 3-5-year-olds after treatment under GA but not after IVS.

    Effect of Saliva Contamination on the Sealing Properties of Glass Ionomer Sealants Placed Over Er,Cr:YSGG Laser-Etched Fissures
    (2017) Oter, B. I.; Tirali, R. E.; Ozgul, B. M.; Berk, N.; Cehreli, S. B.; 0000-0001-6487-3984; 29254347; AAD-2907-2020; AAZ-1977-2021; AAD-6138-2021
    Aim This study investigated the effect of laser pretreatment in reducing the microleakage of conventional (GIC) and resin-modified glass ionomer (RMGIC) sealants on saliva-contaminated enamel. Materials and methods Study Design: 80 extracted non-carious third molars were randomly assigned to two groups (n=40/each): Group A enamel pretreatment with erbium, chromium:yttrium, scandium, gallium, garnet (Er,Cr:YSGG) laser; and Group B no pretreatment. Each group was divided into two subgroups (n=20/each) based on presence/absence of saliva contamination following laser pretreatment. In subgroups: fissures were sealed with GIC (n=10) or RMGIC (n=10). Microleakage was evaluated quantitatively using an image analysis toolkit (Image]), and the data were statistically analysed. Results In the absence of laser pretreatment, the GIC sealant demonstrated significantly lower microleakage values than RMGIC counterparts on both uncontaminated and saliva-contaminated enamel (p<0.001, Mann-Whitney U test). Conclusion Among the tested combinations, GIC sealant with Er,Cr:YSGG pretreatment may be the best approach for sealing pits and fissures, when saliva contamination is inevitable before sealant application.

    The Reliability of Cameriere's Method in Turkish Children: A Preliminary Report
    (2015) Gulsahi, A.; Tirali, R. Ebru; Cehreli, S. Burcak; De Luca, S.; Ferrante, L.; Cameriere, R.; 0000-0001-6487-3984; 25704458; AAD-2907-2020
    Dental age estimation in children is an important issue both legally and medically. Currently, however, there is a lack of contemporary dental age estimation standards for a Turkish population. This study assessed the accuracy of Cameriere's method by examining the panoramic radiographs of 573 healthy Turkish children between the ages of 8 and 15 years. Radiographs of the left permanent developing mandibular teeth, except wisdom teeth, were evaluated. All subjects were divided into 7 groups according to their chronological age. The Intra-class Correlation Coefficient was used to determine the intra-and inter-observer agreement error. A comparison of the distributions of estimation errors among age groups was performed using the Nemenyi test. There were no significant differences between inter-observer (p = 0.352), and intra-observer readings after 2 weeks (p = 0.275 and p = 0.273, respectively). The dental age was underestimated when using Cameriere's method with a mean difference of -0.35 years (-0.24 years for girls and -0.47 years for boys). The median values of the differences between dental and chronological age were -0.44 years in boys (range: -3.70, 4.06) and -0.21 years in girls (range: -2.74, 3.29). In addition, the differences between dental and chronological ages in the different age groups decreased with increasing chronological age. Results from the Nemenyi test implied that Cameriere's method is more accurate for girls than for boys in this cohort of a Turkish population. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
