For an additional assignment based off of the final project in the course Introduction to Dental Hygiene Theory, when each student was assigned a patient from a case study book; we were also tasked with choosing a toothbrush and toothbrushing method for the patient. This selection was based off of the assessment data that the book provided and the treatment plan we created for their individualized needs.
This case study was part of an assignment for my Introduction to Dental Hygiene Theory class. The patient, Maya Patel, is not a real person. This assignment introduced me to the process of creating a treatment plan for my upcoming patients.

Couples presenting to the infertility clinic- Do they really have infertility...Sujoy Dasgupta
Dr Sujoy Dasgupta presented the study on "Couples presenting to the infertility clinic- Do they really have infertility? – The unexplored stories of non-consummation" in the 13th Congress of the Asia Pacific Initiative on Reproduction (ASPIRE 2024) at Manila on 24 May, 2024.
Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

MANAGEMENT OF ATRIOVENTRICULAR CONDUCTION BLOCK.pdfJim Jacob Roy
Cardiac conduction defects can occur due to various causes.
Atrioventricular conduction blocks ( AV blocks ) are classified into 3 types.
This document describes the acute management of AV block.

Anti ulcer drugs and their Advance pharmacology ||
Anti-ulcer drugs are medications used to prevent and treat ulcers in the stomach and upper part of the small intestine (duodenal ulcers). These ulcers are often caused by an imbalance between stomach acid and the mucosal lining, which protects the stomach lining.
||Scope: Overview of various classes of anti-ulcer drugs, their mechanisms of action, indications, side effects, and clinical considerations.

3. VITAL SIGNS
• Blood Pressure: 100/60 mm Hg
• Pulse Rate: 110 bpm
• Respirations: 20 rpm
** Pulse is high, normal range for children is 70-100 bpm
4. MEDICAL HISTORY
• Maya is under the care of a physician for her asthma
• Has had several emergency room visits for difficulty breathing,
but she has not been hospitalized in the last 5 years.
• Her current medications are:
• Montelukast sodium (Singulair®)- leukotriene receptor
• Antagonist albuterol (Proventil HFA®)- bronchodilator inhaler
**Medications cause xerostomia, sore throat, taste changes, and increased
anxiety. Inhaler needs to be out and ready for use at all times during
appointment.
5. DENTAL HISTORY
• Maya keeps on track with her 6 month recall appointments for
oral prophylaxis, where she receives professionally applied
fluoride treatments
• Uses a fluoride toothpaste on a regular basis
• Impressions for study cast have been indicated to evaluate
occlusion
• Exaggerated gag reflex and mouth breathing
6. CURRENT ORAL HYGIENE STATUS
• Generalized marginal plaque with slight bleeding on probing
• Slight supragingival calculus lingual surfaces of the mandibular
anterior teeth
• Slight generalized brown stain
• Flosses occasionally
• Probing Depths: Range from 1-3 mm
7. ORAL EXAMINATION FINDINGS
• Slight tongue thrust
• Slight gingival sensitivity distal to the mandibular left
permanent canine
• Maxillary left primary first molar is mobile
11. POWER BRUSH
• Oral-B Pro Health Vitality Power Toothbrush
• Reasoning includes:
• It has a distinct shape that will allow the brush head to
surround each tooth individually.
• Can be used with app by Oral-B to insure an efficient two
minute brush. The app can also create a fun and engaging
learning environment for Maya.
• A soft bristle head can be paired with the brush to
accommodate her mobile tooth, as well as upcoming mobile
teeth, and sensitive gums.
12. BRUSH HEAD
• Inform Maya that each brush head needs to be replaced
every 3 months.
• The soft bristles are designed with different angles to
ensure the best coverage and cleaning of the mouth
possible.
13. METHOD OF BRUSHING
• Tooth-to-tooth movement with oscillating motion of the
brush head, this is recommended by Oral-B
(manufacturer of the power brush).
• When the head is applied to the tooth it flares out
reaching underneath the gingiva, into the interproximal
spaces, and the entire tooth surface.
• The app will guide her to brush a quadrant at a time,
alert her if she is applying too much pressure, and if she
has missed any areas.
14. AT HOME ORAL INSTRUCTIONS
• I will tell Maya…
• How the tooth brush works and show a video from the Oral-B
website to make sure she completely understands the process.
If there is an available power brush in the clinic I will
demonstrate the process on a model and then test her on the
motions, to ensure best cleaning possible.
• I would tell her the importance of flossing everyday and make
sure she is doing it correctly, buy see-sawing into the contacts
and then using an up & down motion under the gingiva on
each tooth surface, by hugging each tooth surface on each
side.
