目的:为临床医生在正畸治疗过程中处理白斑病变(WSLs)建立共识建议。
方法:三个工作组成员回顾了文献,以确定在正畸治疗期间最小化WSL的最佳实践。每个声明草案都由一名主持人向工作队成员宣读,接着是投票,接受,或编辑,如有必要。然后由独立第三方以电子方式发送声明(麦哲伦医疗技术顾问公司,明尼阿波利斯,Minn)到先前形成的由20名独立私人从业者和临床院士组成的内容验证小组进行验证。
结果:制定了21条声明,并将其用于内容验证。虽然19个陈述达到了0.78的内容验证指数(CVI),但有两个项目没有。这些项目由工作组成员根据内容验证参与者的定性反馈进行编辑。这些修订的陈述中的每一个在来自内容验证小组成员的第二次评估中确实实现了0.78的CVI,因此被包括在本文档中。
结论:为了降低WSL的风险,在全面评估患者口腔和全身健康状况的基础上,实施个性化龋齿管理措施至关重要。对于高危正畸患者,应实施有效的在家和专业的机械和化学菌斑控制。支持预防的氟化物和诸如正畸密封剂之类的材料也应用于在高风险患者的托槽周围提供物理屏障。通过遵循这些准则,正畸专业人员可以帮助促进口腔健康并最大限度地减少修复治疗的需要。
To establish
consensus recommendations for clinicians to manage white spot lesions (WSLs) during orthodontic treatment.
Three task force members reviewed the literature to identify best practices for minimizing WSLs during orthodontic treatment. Each draft statement was read to the task force members by a facilitator, followed by voting, accepting, or editing if necessary. The statements were then sent electronically by an independent third party (Magellan Medical Technology Consultants Inc, Minneapolis, Minn) to a previously formed content validation panel consisting of 20 independent private practitioners and clinical academicians for validation.
Twenty-one statements were developed and sent for content validation. While 19 statements achieved a content validation index (CVI) of 0.78, two items did not. These items were edited by the task force members based on qualitative feedback from content validation participants. Each of these revised statements did achieve a CVI of 0.78 on second evaluation from the content validation panelists and therefore were included in this document.
To reduce the risk of WSLs, it is essential to implement individualized caries management measures based on a comprehensive assessment of the patient\'s oral and systemic health. Effective at-home and professional mechanical and chemical plaque control should be implemented for high-risk orthodontic patients. Fluoride to support prevention and materials such as orthodontic sealants should also be used to provide a physical barrier around the brackets in high-risk patients. By following these
guidelines, orthodontic professionals can help promote oral health and minimize the need for restorative treatment.
