The following results were obtained. 1) The annual number of patients slightly increased between 1992 and 1994. Thereafter, the annual number of patients decreased slightly each year. 2) The mean age attreatmentwas 3 years and 7 months (44.5±12.9 months). 3) Concerning the regional distribution, more than 50% of the children came from Nagano Prefecture areas other than Shiojiri City, where our university is located. 4) With respect to feeding methods during infancy, most children were breast fed or mixed breast and bottle fed. Furthermore, any feeding irregularity was noted. 5) The mean interval from birth until the start of weaning was 7.5±4.1 months. The mean interval until completion of weaning was 16.0±6.3 months. 6) 95.5% of the children habitually brushed their teeth. The frequency of tooth brushing was "once a day" or "sometimes" in 69.5% of the children. 7) Overall, 46.9% of the children had received fluoride application.journal articl

So far, several researchers have reported the existence of Merkel like cells, antigen-presenting like cells and precursor cells of ameloblasts in the ERM. However, the precise functional significance of these cells in the ERM is not clear.journal articl

The subjects were 285 patients (162 males, 123 females) who visited the periodontic department of Matsumoto Dental University Hospital between 1990 to 1992. Questionnaires completed by patients at their first visit were analyzed. These questionnaires covered topics such as age, gender, chief complaint, oral habits, favorite foods, periodontal treatment experiences and systemic diseases.

Patients who brushed their teeth twice per day were predominant. 7. In regard to oral habits, 46.7% of the patients snored and most of those who snored were male patients. 8. Many of the 50~5 9 year-old group patients had hypertention and gastric ulcers. 9. Many of the 30~39 and 40~49 year-old groups of female patients had menoxenia and menorrhalgia.journal articl
