I have received FDA clearance for a method of treating periodontal disease using a custom made tray. I am interested in your dental practice based research to evaluate this method. The method involves using the Perio Tray FDA # K031809.

Suggestion:

Validity of the AAPD caries risk assessment tool (CAT) and other caries risk assessment techniques (also look at actual differences in the groups for methods used...)

Suggestion:

comparison of failure/success of various restorative materials/methods and for primary teeth (SSC, amalgam, resin, GIC...) comparison of above methods for pediatric dentists vs general dentists

Suggestion:

I talked with a patient recently who reported a history of refractory periodontitis until trying a regimen of Listerine mouthrinse before brushing and flossing per the recommendation of a hygienist. Her periodontal condition improved significantly soon after and has been good since. I'm not sure if this has been studied before but could be interesting.

Suggestion:

The relationship between or effect of orthodontic treatment on TMD.

Suggestion:

CORRECTION OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF P.D.L. ATTACHMENT LOSS WITH OR WITHOUT BONE DEFECT BY USING A DOUBLE FACED MEMBRANE WITH ONE FACE CEMENTED TO THE ROOT SURFACE AND THE OTHER FACE IS CONNECTIVE TISSUE PLANTED

Suggestion:

Lets do a study on BRUXISM... In my private practice i see one or more cases every day. The incidence has increased tremendously and all the problems associated with it too. Lets find out if Drs can recognize signs and symptoms... if they know or how to treat the problems etc... I think this will help the general public tremendously sincerely, Dr. Stanley Asensio

Suggestion:

have you ever had or considered a study on bad breath?

Suggestion:

I am an orthodontist in Alex City (for 30 years). I have the first ConeBeam CT (CBCT) in the state of Alabama (UAB now has one in Perio=pros dept) and the first orthodontist in the US to have a 3D facial capture system in routine use in private practice. We are combining the CBCT with the 3D facial capture to create a Patient Specific Anatomic Reconstruction (PSAR)for accurate diagnosis & Tx planning not only for orthodontic patients, but for orthognathic surgery cases and implant cases, etc.

Suggestion:

I would like to see a study on the pay rate for dental assistants.

Suggestion:

Suggestion:

THE AGE OF RECYCLING- recycling of orthodontic brackets using different techniques

Suggestion:

Influence of the body posture on dental occlusion and occlusion on the posture

Suggestion:

Evaluate the plaque removal efficacy of Oral B triumph, Phillips Sonicare, and hand tooth brushing Also, evaluate the efficacy of these systems with and without flossing.

Suggestion:

Can you research the longterm usage of amalgam restorations in comparison to the most dense composite that is placed commonly for posterior fillings? Comparison of failure rates and resons.

Suggestion:

1. the method of failure and longevity of fiber posts in private practice. 2. the effect on a residual ridge of using porcelain versus acrylic denture teeth

Suggestion:

Pulpotomy in children- primary reasons and new materials available.

Suggestion:

Study the effectiveness of limited excavation and restorations along the margins of crowns that are experiencing recurrent decay. Determine if such restorations can have longevity that rivals that of a replacement crown.

Suggestion:

I think a study of patient management would be interesting. It would include everything from how the patient is treated when coming in as well as how long they are in the waiting room, the chair and how much personal time the patient gets with the dentist. The study will measure patient retention and patient compliance with treatment plan related to the time spent in the office
