    Lassemo, Eva Irene Samant; Rodd, Helen D.; Skeie, Marit Slåttelid; Johnsen, Jan Are Kolset; Nermo, Hege; Sand, Kari; Eftedal, Randi Krog; Fagerhaug, Tone Natland; Jasbi, Arefe; Marshman, Zoe; Dahllöf, Göran; Høiseth, Marikken (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-11-20)
    Background - Establishing positive oral health behaviours during adolescence should be a key priority to improve lifelong oral health. However, changing adolescent behaviours is known to be a challenge. Motivational interviewing (MI) is a method of working with patients to activate their motivation for change and has shown promising results within the dental setting. Yet, little is known about the ...

    Moltubakk, Silje Navjord; Jönsson, Birgitta; Lukic, Marko; Stangvaltaite-Mouhat, Lina (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-10-24)
    Background Although, studies from Norway indicate a reduction in dental caries experience, in Northern-Norway this non-communicable oral condition is still prevalent. There is conflicting evidence of presence of social inequalities in dental caries in an adult population. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess an association between educational level and dental caries experience in adults ...

  • Primary intraosseous carcinoma arising in a dentigerous cyst: A case report 

    Tousi, Farnoush; Johannessen, Anne Christine; Ljøkjel, Borghild; Løes, Sigbjørn (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-06)
    Dentigerous cysts are among the most common cysts of the jaw. They are attached to the crown of an unerupted tooth, most frequently third molars and maxillary canines. They are often asymptomatic and may therefore be diagnosed late. We report a case of a primary intraosseous carcinoma arising from the wall of a dentigerous cyst and describe the expression of typical genes associated with tumour ...
  • Capture of a novel, antibiotic resistance encoding, mobile genetic element from Escherichia coli using a new entrapment vector 

    Tansirichaiya, Supathep; Moyo, Sabrina John; Al-Haroni, Mohammed; Roberts, Adam P. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-03-01)
    <b><p>Aims</b> Antimicrobial resistance genes (ARGs) are often associated with mobile genetic elements (MGEs), which facilitate their movement within and between bacterial populations. Detection of mobility is therefore important to understand the dynamics of MGE dissemination and their associated genes, especially in resistant clinical isolates that often have multiple ARGs associated with MGEs. ...
  • Correlation between caries experience in Sudanese school children and dietary habits, according to a food frequency questionnaire, and a modifies 24-hr recall method 

    Nurelhuda, Nazik N; Malde, Marian Kjellevold; Ahmed, Mutaz Faisal; Trovik, Tordis A (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
    World-wide epidemiological studies have found positive correlations between sugarsweetened snack intake and dental caries in developing countries and the contrary in developed countries. The pattern of sugar-sweetened snack intake and the magnitude of its effect on the prevalence of dental caries differs from one population to another rendering it important to study each situation separately. In ...
  • Executive functioning as a moderator of flossing behaviour among young adults: a temporal self-regulation theory perspective 

    Rogers, Adam Austin; Halvari, Anne Elisabeth Münster; Johnsen, Jan-Are Kolset; Solbakk, Anne-Kristin (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-08-27)
    Background - Flossing among young adults is often infrequent and barriers not completely understood. One explanation concerns the capacity for executive functioning (EF) during the self-regulation of behaviour.<p> <p>Methods - Using Temporal Self-Regulation Theory (TST) as a framework to explore EF, young adults from Norwegian universities completed a survey that measured monthly flossing frequency, ...
  • Delay of Dental Care: An Exploratory Study of Procrastination, Dental Attendance, and Self-Reported Oral Health 

    Steinvik, Lene Marita; Svartdal, Frode; Johnsen, Jan-Are Kolset (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-02-20)
    Delay of dental care is a problem for dental public health. The present study explored the relationship between procrastination and dental attendance, focusing on delay in seeking dental care. This hypothetical relation was compared to other avoidance-related factors affecting dental attendance. In addition, an inquiry into the reasons for delaying dental care was conducted. Students (n = 164) ...

    Denne masteroppgaven tar for seg konsensus i bruk av glukokortikoider blant norske spesialister, retningslinjer og hva som finnes i litteraturen. Videre ønsker vi å sammenligne behandling av oraleslimhinne lidelser med glukokortikoider og ikke-steroidholdige alternativer. Metoden som ble brukt i denne undersøkelsen var en spørreundersøkelse sendt til spesialistene i Norge som oftest har konsultasjoner ...

  • Dentale implantater og holdninger til tannerstatninger. En tverrsnittstudie i en nord-norsk befolkning: TOHNN-studien 

    Austdal, Ingrid; Aarskog, Victoria (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2023-04-28)
    Bakgrunn/formål: Implantatbehandling har blitt et veletablert behandlingsvalg for å erstatte en eller flere tapte tenner. Vi vet imidlertid lite om hvem som har implantater og hvilke holdninger folk har til tannerstatninger. Formålet med denne masteroppgaven var å kartlegge fordeling av dentale implantater i en nord-norsk befolkning. Videre ville vi undersøke holdninger til tap av tenner, samt ...
