The present invention provides a novel Lactobacillus sp. strain, which has high antibacterial activity against various pathogenic bacteria, including bacteria associated with fish diseases and dental cavities, inhibits the production of melanin and promotes the synthesis of collagen, and thus can be utilized as a material for a variety of foods and medicines, and the use thereof.

An improved dental matrix system and method for filling cavities located on a side portion of a tooth, including a dental matrix, a dental spring ring, and an improved inter-proximal elastomeric dental wedge having a wedge section, wherein when in use the dental matrix is placed adjacent the side of a tooth that has a cavity, the dental wedge is placed between the dental matrix and an adjacent tooth, then the dental spring ring is placed around the adjacent tooth and contacts the dental matrix on opposite side portions thereof to hold it in place against the tooth that has the cavity, such that when pulling on the end of the dental wedge it becomes elongated and pulls the wedge section further between the adjacent tooth and the dental matrix thereby pushing the dental matrix toward and holding tightly against the tooth that has the cavity.

A malleable sustained release formulation is created utilizing a local anesthetic wherein the composition is made sustained release by incorporating it into a bovine or porcine hemostatic agent. The composition is malleable enough to fit into a cavity such as a dental cavity and form the shape of the cavity. In addition to providing sustained release of the anesthetic, the composition also provides quicker reduction in bleeding.

A dental apparatus includes a handle, a first dental implement and a second dental implement. The first and second dental implements extend from different portions of a body of the handle. The first dental implement may include an elongated member that is straight, a spear extending from a distal end of the straight elongated member, and a barb connected to the body of the first elongated member, adjacent to the second end of the body of the first elongated member. The second dental implement may include a cone-shaped member having a plurality of nubs protruding from an exterior of the cone-shaped member and pointing generally toward an opening of a dental cavity when the cone-shaped member is inserted in the cavity.

A molded gel body used in ultrasonography in the medical or dental field, and the production and use thereof. The molded gel body is used to detect and localize dental cavities in the jawbone by means of through-transmission alveolar ultrasonography (TAU). The molded gel body has a receptacle for receiving an ultrasound transmitter and / or receiver. The molded gel body and the receptacle are adapted to the shape of the ultrasound transmitter and / or receiver. The molded gel body is inserted into a flexible, biocompatible cover which can be filled with an ultrasound gel. To produce the molded gel body, cuboids of a dimensionally stable gel of the appropriate size are preferably cut open over the three of the four lateral sides of the cuboid, but preferably not completely cut through, to produce the receptacle.

Compositions and methods for preventing dental cavities are described. The compositions include, and the methods involve the use of, an anti-biofilm compound such as pranlukast or lithocholic acid.

The invention relates to diagnostic software for providing data for the manufacture of a jaw splint for a person, wherein an actual dental space condition and / or tooth position (1) and an actual jaw function (2) are recorded, wherein - an actual body posture (3) is recorded, and - an actual foot pressure (4) is recorded, and - the actual tooth space condition and / or tooth position (1) is compared with a target tooth space condition and / or tooth position (11) in order to determine an initial deviation (a) between the actual tooth space condition (1) and the target tooth space condition (11), - the actual jaw function (2) is compared with a target jaw function (12) in order to determine a second deviation (b) between the actual jaw function (2) and the target jaw function (12), - the actual body posture (3) is compared with a target body posture (13) in order to determine a third deviation (c) between the actual body posture (3) and the target body posture (13), - the actual floor pressure (4) is compared with a target floor pressure (14) to determine a fourth deviation (d) between the actual floor pressure (4) and the target floor pressure (14), wherein - the collected data will be used to manufacture the jaw splint, suitable for reducing the deviations (a, b, c, d).

The invention relates to a molded gel body, the production thereof and the use thereof in ultrasonography in the medical or dental field. In particular, the molded gel body is used to detect and localize dental cavities in the jawbone by means of through-transmission alveolar ultrasonography (TAU). The molded gel body has a receptacle for receiving an ultrasound transmitter and / or receiver. The molded gel body and the receptacle are preferably adapted to the shape of the ultrasound transmitter and / or receiver. For easier handling, the molded gel body is inserted into a flexible, biocompatible protective cover which, like the receptacle, can be filled with a non-dimensionally stable ultrasound gel. To produce the molded gel body, cuboids of a dimensionally stable gel of the appropriate size are preferably cut open over the narrow lateral surfaces of the cuboid, but preferably not completely cut through and only over three of the four sides to produce the receptacle or, if not completely cut open, closed or glued on the edges only over two of the four sides.
