Lystgass er svært egnet som sedasjonsmiddel ved tannbehandling til kooperative pasienter. Det kan titreres individuelt, effekten kommer raskt og kort etter avsluttet behandling er lystgassen ute av kroppen. Sedasjon med lystgass skal utføres i kombinasjon med psykologiske teknikker, med fokus på pasientmedvirkning, kontroll og god kommunikasjon samt adekvat smertekontroll. Lystgass demper uro, gir bløtvevsanalgesi og er et nyttig hjelpemiddel ved forebygging av angstinduserte opplevelser, behandling av pasienter med tannbehandlingsangst, brekninger og/eller ufrivillige muskelsammentrekninger samt for multimorbide pasienter med fare for legemiddelinterraksjoner ved bruk av benzodiazepiner. Følgelig er lystgass et utmerket verktøy i dagens odontologiske praksis med søkelys på smertefri tannbehandling samt forebygging og behandling av tannbehandlingsfrykt, -angst og -fobi.

Characteristics of patients in need of dental treatment under general anesthesia.
Vis sammendrag
Dental treatment under general anesthesia (GA) is an option when conventional treatment cannot be accomplished due to un-cooperation and systemic or intellectual disabilities.
Aim:
The aim of this retrospective study was to describe characteristics of and dental treatment needs in patients referred for dental treatment under GA in the Public Dental Services in Oslo.
Methods:
All patients receiving dental treatment under GA in 2016 were included. Data was extracted from dental records and included: age, health conditions, reason for referral, recorded symptoms, dmft/DMFT and received treatment. Data was analyzed using SPSS. The study was performed as part of quality assurance system required by law in the dental services, and did not require ethical approval. Anonymized data was recorded.
Results:
In total 173 patients aged 2-71 years were included. Half, 95 patients (55%), were children and adolescents. The majority, 141 patients (82%), had one or more medical disorders, whereas 32 patients (18%) were medically healthy. The most common medical disorder was intellectual disability followed by epilepsy, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), genetic syndromes and cerebral palsy. Sixteen genetic syndromes were registered; Downs syndrome was most common. Barriers for conventional treatment were dental behavior management problems, anxiety, immaturity, spasm and gagging. The most frequent dental reason for referral was caries (97 patients (56%)). In 55 patients (32%), patients or caregivers reported oral symptoms. Mean dmft for preschool children (≤5 years) was 8.5 (SD 5.9), for children and adolescents 3.1 (SD 3.3) and for adults (>18 years) 12.5 (SD 11.9). Restorative treatment was performed in 141 patients (82%) and extractions in 107 (62%). Other dental treatments were endodontic, periodontal, prosthodontic, surgical, orthodontic and prophylactic treatments.
Conclusion:
Treatment in GA was received by a heterogenic group with varied and extensive treatment needs. The majority of patients treated under GA had intellectual disability.

Emaljefeil kan ses som lokale eller generelle misfarginger, såkaltekvalitative defekter, eller somkvantitative defekterhvor emaljener generelt tynn, manglende eller har furer, groper og ujevnstruktur. Årsaker kan være lokale påvirkninger, generellepåvirkninger eller genetiske endringer. Lokale påvirkninger somtanntraumer i melketannsettet gir ofte emaljefeil i det permanentetannsettet. Generelle påvirkninger som alvorlig sykdom undertanndannelsen, D-vitaminmangel og forgiftninger kan gi uliketyper emaljefeil. Mutasjoner i spesifikke emaljegener eller andregener som bidrar i embryogenese kan gi utviklingsforstyrrelser itannemalje. Mange emaljefeil av typen MIH kan ikke forklares ved noen av de nevnte faktorene, og det forskes på andre hittil ukjenteårsaksfaktorer.

Caries development in Norwegian Children aged 5 to 12 years.
Vis sammendrag
Children in Norway are offered all dental services free of charge. Aim: To describe caries prevalence in children aged 5 and 12 years and to explore caries development from 5 to 12 years. Methods: All 7002 children born in 2002 in one Norwegian county were invited to attend for a dental examination when they were 5 years old and were offered a re-examination at 12 years of age. Data were collected by clinical examinations and extracted from dental records. Caries was recorded as enamel caries (grades d1 and d2) and dentine caries (grades d3 to d5). At age 5 years, caries was registered in primary teeth, and at 12 years, only caries in permanent teeth was registered. A dentist and dental hygienists in the community dental services performed the examinations. Inter- and intra-examiner agreements were assessed by Cohen’s kappa and showed substantial to almost perfect agreements. Informed consent was obtained from parents and the study approved by an ethics committee (notification 2013/1881). Results: 5623 children were examined at 5 years of age of whom 3282 were re-examined at 12 years of age. At age 5 years, 510 (15%) of the children had dentine caries, and at age 12 years 1060 (32%) of the children had dentine caries. Enamel caries was registered in 689 (21%) of the children at age 5 years and 1542 (47%) at age 12 years. The longitudinal results showed that 1998 (61%) of the children had no caries at both ages. Of children that were caries free at age 5 years, 774 (24%) developed caries from 5 to 12 years of age. Children with caries at both ages had more surfaces with caries 3.1 (SD 2.6) than other children 2.2 (SD 1.8) at age 12 years (p<0.05). Conclusions: In the population studied, the majority had no caries. Children with caries at 5 years developed more caries between 5 and 12 years of age than other children. The results indicate that the dental care offered to children in this period failed to prevent these children from developing caries.

Do child characteristics influence recall intervals for Norwegian children?
Vis sammendrag
Background: Children in Norway are offered regular dental services free of charge. Aim: To explore changes in recall intervals for children aged 5 to 12 years, and study associations with caries experience, parents’ national background and education and recall intervals. Methods: This longitudinal study included 2960 children in one county in Norway monitored from 5 to 12 years of age. Data were collected at clinical examinations, from dental records and by parental questionnaires. Dentists and dental hygienists performed the examinations. Intra- and interexaminer agreements were tested and calculated using Cohen’s kappa showing substantial to almost perfect agreements. Length of recall intervals was dichotomised into short (shorter than 18 months) and long (18 months and longer). Data were analysed using Chi-square statistics and logistic regression (SPSS, version 24). Informed consent was obtained from parents and the study was approved by an ethics committee (REC/2013/1881). Results: Recall intervals varied from 4 to 24 months, mean 18.2 (SD 4.2) at 5 years of age, and mean 17.2 (SD 3.8) at 12 years of age. Among the 704 children with short recall intervals at 5 years of age half (366) still had short intervals at age 12 years. Among the 2256 children with long recall intervals at age 5 years, the majority (1613) had long intervals at 12 years of age. Multivariate logistic regression analyses controlled for caries experience and characteristics of children showed that the probability of having short interval was higher in children having caries experience than in caries-free children at both 5 years (OR 12.6 CI 9.9-16.0) and 12 years (OR 2.7 CI 2.3-3.1). In addition, at 5 years of age, length of recall intervals was associated with parents’ national background (OR 1.8 CI 1.4-2.4) and parents’ education (OR 1.3 CI 1.0-1.5). Conclusions: In the population studied, the majority of children had long recall intervals at both ages. The results indicated that recall intervals were associated with caries prevalence and that family characteristics influenced recall intervals in preschool children more strongly than in older children.

Oral health behaviour and background characteristics in Norwegian 12-year-olds.
Vis sammendrag
Children in Norway are offered oral health care free of charge from birth. Aim: To explore oral health behaviour in 12-year-old children and to study association between oral health behaviour and family characteristics. Methods: All children (7595) in one Norwegian county were in 2014 invited to participate in the study as part of the routine dental visit at 12 years of age. The included children (4779) completed a questionnaire regarding family characteristics; parental background, parental education, family status and gender. Oral health behaviour included tooth brushing frequency, use of dental floss, use of fluoride supplements and sugar snacking. Data were analysed using Chi square statistics and logistic regression. Informed consent was obtained from parents, and the investigation was approved by an ethics committee (2013/1881/REK sør-øst). Results: Of the children included in the study, 3867 (81%) brushed twice daily, 1726 (36%) used dental floss once a week or more often, 1842 (39%) used fluoride supplements daily and 2292 (48%) reported consuming sugar between meals once a week or less often. Children who brushed twice daily more often used dental floss regularly, used fluoride supplements daily and consumed sugar between meals less frequently than other children (p<0.05). Girls and children having parents with a high level of education more often had favourable oral health behaviour than other children, brushed more frequently, more often used dental floss and fluoride supplements and sugar snacked less often than boys (p<0.05). Conclusions: In the population studied, associations between favourable oral health behaviours were found. Oral health behaviour was associated with family characteristics.
