Assessing the Association between Oral Hygiene and Preterm Birth by Quantitative Light-Induced Fluorescence
The aim of this study was to investigate the purported link between oral hygiene and preterm birth by using image analysis tools to quantify dental plaque biofilm. Volunteers (n=91) attending an antenatal clinic were identified as those considered to be “at high risk” of preterm delivery (i.e., a pr...
