This document provides information on caries risk assessment tools and models. It discusses the CAMBRA (Caries Management By Risk Assessment) model, which takes an individualized approach to caries risk assessment and management based on a patient's risk factors, protective factors, and disease indicators. The Cariogram is introduced as another caries risk assessment tool that provides a graphical representation of a patient's caries risk based on entered data on factors like diet, bacteria levels, fluoride exposure, and past caries experience. It calculates the patient's "chance to avoid new cavities" to help determine their risk level and guide preventive recommendations.

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.drhasanrajab
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.

Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

• Caries Risk Assessment is used by most general dentists daily, usually on an
intuitive level.
• Caries risk is a term to indicate what will happen in the future- will there be
demineralizations, will new cavities occur?
• It is understood that the evaluation is made for a certain period of time.

29. AAPD Recommendations
• 1. Caries-risk assessment, based on a child’s age, biological,
protective factors, and clinical findings, should be a routine
component of new and periodic examinations.
• 2. Estimating children at low, moderate, and high caries risk by
reflecting on risk and protective factors will enable a more
evidence-based approach to establish periodicity and intensity of
diagnostic, preventive, and restorative services.
• 3. Clinical management protocols, based on a child’s age, caries
risk, and level of patient/parent cooperation, provide health
providers with criteria and protocols for determining the types and
frequency of diagnostic, preventive, and restorative care for
patient specific management of dental caries.
32. Basis for caries management by risk
assessment
Decrease caries risk
factors
Increase caries
protective factors
33. Introduction
• CAMBRA philosophy was first introduced nearly a decade ago when an
unofficial group called the Western CAMBRA Coalition was formed that
included stakeholders from education, research, industry, governmental
agencies and private practitioners based in the western region of the United
States.

35. Advantages in using risk assessment
.
Better cost-
effectiveness
Greater
success in
treatment
CAMBRA philosophy advocates the detection of the carious lesion at the earliest
possible stage so the process can be reversed or arrested before cavitation and
subsequent restoration is needed.
36. Reassessment
• Reassessment of the patient’s risk for dental caries is considered best
practices and should occur 3 to 12 months after the initial caries risk
assessment, with the interval of time depending on the risk level of the
patient.
37. Disease Indicators
• The Caries Imbalance model uses the acronym “WREC” (pronounced “wreck”) to
describe the following four disease indicators:
• White spots visible on smooth surfaces
• Restorations placed in the last three years as a result of caries activity
• Enamel approximal lesions (confined to enamel only) visible on dental radiographs
• Cavitation of carious lesions showing radiographic penetration into the dentin
38. Patient Examination
Visual tactile method
appropriate use of the dental explorer is to use it to
remove plaque from the examination area
determine surface roughness of non cavitated lesions
by gently moving the explorer across the tooth surface
39. • Bitewing radiographs are the current standard for examination of the
proximal surfaces, used because these surfaces cannot be accessed for
assessment using direct visual or tactile methods.
40. Risk Factors
• Described as biological reasons that cause or promote current or
future caries disease. Risk factors traditionally have been
associated with the etiology of disease
• CAMBRA philosophy identifies nine risk factors that are outcome
measures of the risk for current or future caries disease, and each
of these is supported with research .
41. • The Caries Imbalance model uses the acronym “BAD” to describe three risk
factors that are supported in the literature as causative for dental caries:
• Bad bacteria, meaning acidogenic, aciduric or cariogenic bacteria
• Absence of saliva, meaning hyposalivation or salivary hypofunction
• Destructive lifestyle habits that contribute to caries disease, such as
frequent ingestion of fermentable carbohydrates, and poor oral hygiene (self
care)
42. Biological predisposing factors
MS & LB
high by
culture
Visible
heavy
plaque on
teeth
Frequent
snacking >3
times
Deep pits
and fissures
Inadequate
saliva
Saliva
reducing
factors
Orthodontic
appliance
45. • The Caries Imbalance model uses the acronym “SAFE” to describe the
following four protective factors:
• Saliva and sealants
• Antimicrobials or antibacterials (including xylitol)
• Fluoride and other products that enhance remineralization
• Effective lifestyle habits
46. CAMBRA clinical guidelines
• Saliva testing
• Bacterial testing a baseline for all new patients
• Recommend that the placement of sealants be based on the risk
of the patient, and resin-based sealants and glass ionomers are
optional for patients at lower risk for caries.
• For moderate-, high- and extreme-risk caries patients, pit and
fissure sealants are recommended.
47. CAMBRA clinical guidelines
• Recommend the use of antimicrobials for patients over six years
of age who are classified as being at high or extreme risk for caries
• CAMBRA clinical guidelines recommend the use of xylitol to
control the cariogenic bacteria S. mutans for patients over six
years of age who are classified as being at moderate to extreme
risk for caries.The 2007 clinical guidelines for patients over 6 years
of age recommend no more than 6-10 grams/day of xylitol.
48. • ADA’s clinical guidelines suggest that applications of fluoride varnish two
to four times per year are effective in reducing carious lesions in children
and adolescents who are at high risk for caries, and the CAMBRA clinical
guidelines recommend a frequency of application of fluoride varnish as
indicated by the patient’s caries risk.
49. Effective Lifestyle Habits
• Reducing the amount and frequency of sugar consumption, including the
“hidden sugars” .
• CAMBRA clinical guidelines (>6 years old) suggest the use of calcium
phosphate for patients with excessive root exposure or sensitivity and is
recommended for use several times daily for patients classified as being at
extreme risk.
• For pediatric patients (0-6 years old), CAMBRA clinical guidelines suggest
alternating brushing between toothpaste and calcium phosphate,
leaving the latter on at bedtime for patients classified as noncompliant and
at moderate to extreme risk
50. • Assessment of the caries risk of the individual patient is a critical component
in determining an appropriate and successful management strategy.
CAMBRA supports clinicians in making decisions based on research, clinical
expertise, and the patient’s preferences and needs.
51. CARIOGRAM
• Pioneered by Bo krasse and team
• D. Bratthall, G Hänsel Petersson, JR Stjernswärd
• 'Cariogram' is a new concept, conceived initially as an educational
model, aiming at illustrating the multifactorial background of
dental caries in a simple way.
52. What is a Cariogram?
• It is a graphical picture illustrating in an interactive way the
individual's/patient's risk for developing new caries in the future,
simultaneously expressing to what extent different etiological factors of
caries affect the caries risk for that particular patient.
• It illustrates a possible over-all risk scenario, based on what can be expected
depending on our interpretation of available information.
53. Cariogram – Aims
• Illustrates the interaction of caries related factors.
• Illustrates the chance to avoid caries.
• Expresses caries risk graphically.
• Recommends targeted preventive actions.
• Can be used in the clinic.
• Can be used as an educational programme.
54. Which factors are to be considered in the
estimation of caries risk?
Attack
• Dental plaque
• Microbes(specific)
• Diet
Defense
• Salivary
protective system
• Fluoride exposure
Factors immediately involved in the caries
process
55. Factors related to the occurrence of caries, without actually participating in
the development of the lesion.
• Socioeconomic factors
• Past caries experience
56. ‘Weights’ - the relative impact of factors
• This means that the key factors, which support the development of caries,
or resist caries, have a stronger impact than the less important factors when
the program calculates the ‘Chance to avoid new cavities’.
57. Cariogram - the five sectors
Actual chance to avoid
new cavities
Diet contents &
frequency
Bacteria in plaque
Succeptibility
Fluoride, saliva
buffer
capacity,saliva
secretion
Circumstances
Past caries experiences
58. What does ‘Chance to avoid caries’ imply?
• .
• The bigger the green sector, the better from a dental health point of
view
• A green sector of 75% or more would indicate a very good chance to
avoid new cavities in the coming year, if conditions are unchanged. A
green sector of 25% or less indicates a very high caries risk.

68. Conclusion
• Current science has determined that the key to dental caries treatment and
disease prevention lies with modifying and correcting the complex dental
biofilm and transforming oral factors to favor health.
• Caries risk assessment (CRA) is a critical component of dental caries
management and should be considered a standard of care and included as
part of the dental examination.
• Thus the treatment of caries can be based on biological principles and not
on chance or beliefs. Recommended to treat the actual disease , as a whole
not just the traditional drill and fill approach.
