RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of fluoride (F) varnishes with sodium trimetaphosphate (TMP) on erosive tooth wear (ETW) in vitro. METHODS: Enamel blocks (n = 100) were divided into 5 experimental groups (n = 20/group): Placebo (Pla - without F/TMP); 5 % NaF (NaF); 5 % NaF + 5 % micrometric TMP (NaF+5 %MICRO); 5 % NaF + 2.5 % nano-sized TMP (NaF+2.5 %NANO), and 5 % NaF + 5 % nano-sized TMP (NaF+5 %NANO). Blocks received a single varnish application (6 h contact), and were submitted to 4 daily erosive challenges (ERO, 0.05 M citric acid, pH 3.2, 90 s, under agitation), for 5 days. After ERO, half of the blocks (n = 10/group) were subjected to brushing abrasion (ERO+ABR). Profilometry, surface hardness (SH), and cross-sectional hardness (ΔKHN) were determined. The data were submitted to 2-way ANOVA and Fisher's LSD test (p < 0.05). RESULTS: Enamel wear was significantly lower for ERO compared with ERO+ABR for all varnishes tested (p < 0.001), following the pattern NaF+5 %NANO < NaF+5 %MICRO < NaF < NaF+2.5 %NANO < Pla (both for ERO and ERO+ABR). The highest SH loss was observed for Pla and the lowest for NaF (ERO) and NaF+2.5 %NANO (ERO+ABR), without significant differences among NaF+2.5 %NANO, NaF, and NaF+5 %MICRO. The highest ΔKHN values were observed for NaF+5 %MICRO and NaF+5 %NANO at 5-30 µm, with less marked differences among the groups at 30-70 µm (ERO and ERO+ABR). CONCLUSIONS: The addition of TMP to F varnishes significantly improves protection against ETW in vitro. The use of 5 % nano-sized TMP further enhances such effects. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: F varnishes containing TMP can reduce enamel loss caused by ERO or ERO+ABR.

RESUMEN

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to find potential risk factors associated with the occurrence of developmental defects of enamel (DDE) in permanent dentition of a birth cohort in Southern Brazil. Methods: This study is a 2004 birth cohort carried out in the city of Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. A subsample of 996 children was clinically examined at 12 to 13 years of age. The pre- and perinatal variables used for this study were: twin pregnancy; type of delivery; prematurity; birth weight; Apgar score in the first and fifth minute; health problems at birth; and intensive care unit admission at birth. Gender and family income variables were also collected. Some postnatal variables were collected: "hospitalization in the first 24 months"; "breastfeeding"; "respiratory diseases in the first 48 months"; "urinary infection in the first 48 months"; and "ear pain in the first 48 months." To assess an association between the presence of DDE and various risk factors, unadjusted and adjusted Poisson regression with robust variance was performed with a respective prevalence ratio. Results: The prevalence of DDE was 40.8 percent. The variables investigated did not present a statistical association with DDE. Conclusion: No association of developmental defects of enamel in permanent dentition with any of the factors investigated in this study was found.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: Evaluate CaneCPI-5 associated with Vitamin E in acquired enamel pellicle (AEP) engineering to prevent dental erosion. METHODS: 180 human enamel specimens were divided into 12 groups and treated with the following solutions: Cane+VitT and Cane+VitS- CaneCPI-5 + Vit E; Vit+CaneT and Vit+CaneS- Vit E + CaneCPI-5; VitT and VitS- Vit E; CaneT and CaneS- CaneCPI-5; ControlT and ControlS - AmF/NaF/SnCl2; WaterT and WaterS- Deionized water. Groups' name followed by "T" were first treated (200 µl; 2 min) and then incubated in human saliva (200 µl; 1 h) to form the AEP. For groups followed by "S", the AEP was formed and then treatment was applied. The erosive challenge consisted of immersion in 1% citric acid (1 min, 1x/day, for 3 days). The percentage of superficial hardness loss (%SHL) and the relative surface reflection intensity (%SRI) were subjected to normality and homogeneity tests, Shapiro-Wilk and Levene tests, respectively. Subsequently, the data were analyzed using two-way ANOVA, Tukey's test and Pearson's correlation (p < 0.005). RESULTS: For%SHL and%SRI, water controls showed significantly lower protective capacity. Cane+VitT, Cane+VitS, and Vit+CaneS presented the lowest%SHL, and VitT and VitS did not differ from Vit+CaneT, but they were different from the other groups (p = 0.002). The greatest%SRI was found for the Cane+VitT, Vit+CaneT, VitT, Cane+VitS, Vit+CaneS, and VitS groups, which did not significantly differ. CaneT and ControlT, showed similar reflections compared to CaneS and ControlS. CONCLUSION: CaneCPI-5 and Vitamin E demonstrated a synergistic protective effect against initial erosion. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The results open up new possibilities for preventive approaches against erosion through the acquired pellicle engineering, with the combination of CaneCPI-5 and Vitamin E, which demonstrated to be more effective than commercial stannous mouthwash. Further research is warranted to explore the potential of this combination in diverse clinical settings.

RESUMEN

The aim of this paper is to present a case of masking of a hypoplastic lesion using the infiltrating resin technique, without use of drilling or any loss of tooth structure. A 22-year-old female patient complained of a noncarious white spot on the buccal surface of the upper right central incisor which affected the esthetics of her smile. Despite the tooth discoloration, the tooth structure was intact, with no depressions, cracks, or grooves. During the anamnesis, she reported that the white spot had been present since childhood. On the basis of the information provided by the patient and collected during intraoral clinical examination, it was determined that the stain was suggestive of enamel hypoplasia. The treatment proposed to the patient was the application of infiltrating resin to mask the hypoplasia on the surface of the tooth enamel without any loss of tooth structure. In this case, Icon infiltrating resin proved to be efficient in masking the hypoplastic lesion. The final appearance of the treated tooth was satisfactory, with homogeneity and gloss on the surface, which minimized the characteristics of an unpleasant smile.

RESUMEN

Introducción: se ha estudiado ampliamente la importancia de los cambios de presión y sus consecuencias en el cuerpo humano. De esto se desprenden dos conceptos importantes: el barotrauma que se define como el daño producido por cambios en la presión atmosférica; y la barodontalgia que se define como el dolor dentario producido por variaciones de presión barométrica, por ejemplo cuando existen gases atrapados en restauraciones o en la cámara pulpar y/o conducto radicular. Estos conceptos se fundamentan en las leyes de los gases: la Ley de Difusión Gaseosa, la Ley de Dalton, la Ley de Boyle, la Ley de Charles y la Ley de Henry. Discusión: el estudio y prevención de la barodontalgia es de suma importancia, ya que aunque no tiene alta prevalencia entre los aviadores, su aparición es súbita y de alta intensidad, lo que puede provocar en el piloto una incapacidad física y mental, que aumenta el riesgo de accidentes. Conclusiones: en esta revisión, se reúnen las estrategias recomendadas para prevenir su aparición.

Introduction: the importance of pressure changes and their consequences on the human body has been widely studied. Two important concepts arise from this: barotrauma, which is defined as the damage produced by changes in atmospheric pressure; and barodontalgia, which is defined as dental pain produced by variations in barometric pressure, for example when gases are trapped in restorations or in the pulp chamber and/or root canal. These concepts are based on the gas laws: the Law of Gaseous Diffusion, Dalton's Law, Boyle's Law, Charles' Law and Henry's Law. Discusion: the study and prevention of barodontalgia is of utmost importance, since although it is not highly prevalent among aviators, its onset is sudden and of high intensity, which can cause physical and mental incapacity in the pilot, increasing the risk of accidents. Conclusions: this review brings together the recommended strategies to prevent its occurrence.

Introducão: a importância das mudanças de pressão e suas conseqüências sobre o corpo humano têm sido amplamente estudadas. Dois conceitos importantes podem ser derivados disto: barotrauma, que é definido como o dano produzido por mudanças na pressão atmosférica; e barodontalgia, que é definida como a dor dental produzida por variações na pressão barométrica, por exemplo, quando os gases estão presos em restaurações ou na câmara de polpa e/ou canal radicular. Estes conceitos são baseados nas leis do gás: a Lei de Difusão Gasosa, a Lei de Dalton, a Lei de Boyle, a Lei de Charles e a Lei de Henry. Discusion: o estudo e prevenção da barodontia é de suma importância, pois embora não seja muito prevalente entre os aviadores, seu início é repentino e de alta intensidade, o que pode causar incapacidade física e mental no piloto, aumentando o risco de acidentes. Conclusões: esta revisão reúne as estratégias recomendadas para evitar sua ocorrência.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Children and adolescents undergoing kidney transplantation may present oral conditions after the procedure, but a few studies have recently described them. AIM: To describe the oral conditions of post-renal transplant children and adolescents. DESIGN: Two calibrated dentists examined all the participants by assessing caries experience, enamel defects, periodontal condition and soft tissue lesions. RESULTS: A total of 120 participants were included in the study, in which 63 (52.5%) were male and 57 (47.5%) were female, with a mean age of 12.78 ± 3.9 years. Among the participants, 104 (86.7%) showed at least one oral change directly related to kidney disease. The most frequent oral findings were enamel defect (49/120; 40.8%) and drug-induced gingival overgrowth (DIGO) (20/120; 16.7%). Gingival bleeding was observed on probing in 115 (95.8%) participants, whereas 69 (57.5%) presented dental calculus and 51 (42.5%) had caries experience. CONCLUSION: Gingival bleeding, enamel defects and DIGO were the most frequent oral findings in kidney transplant children and adolescents. The use of amlodipine and anticonvulsants was associated with DIGO, and there was a positive correlation between oral ulcers and use of everolimus.

RESUMEN

Dental treatment is a highly sought-after but costly procedure in the world, so it is important to consider measures to prevent dental disease. Among the ways of prevention, drinking water fluoridation, which involves adding relevant amounts of fluoride to the water supply reaching communities, stands out. However, it is not clear whether there are enough researchers who have addressed the issue, or that their methodology has been adequate to provide alternatives to solve some conditions, such as dental fluorosis, which, in contrast, is manifested by excessive fluoride intake. The main objective was to explore and analyse the academic production on the concentration of fluoride present in drinking water in order to find a relationship with dental fluorosis in children. To this end, the PRISMA model was used as a starting point in order to carry out a systematic review of academic articles chosen according to selection criteria. These will be extracted from five databases, using a documentary-type methodology, whose data collection will be carried out in virtual environments. From this, it was concluded that the academic production includes the concentration of fluoride in drinking water as a means of prevention for dental pathologies; however, the levels of fluoride allowed in children should be known, as the excess of fluoride in the teeth causes dental fluorosis, which turns out to be the cause of psychological complexes in children due to an aesthetic issue.

El tratamiento dental es un procedimiento muy solicitado en el mundo, pero costoso de realizar; por lo que, es importante considerar medidas para prevenir enfermedades dentarias. Entre las formas de prevención, destaca la fluoración del agua potable, que implica añadir cantidades pertinentes de flúor al suministro de agua que llega a las comunidades. Sin embargo, no se precisa si existen suficientes investigadores que hayan abordado el tema, o que su metodología empleada haya sido la adecuada como para brindar alternativas para solucionar algunas afecciones, tales como la fluorosis dental que; en contraste, se manifiesta por la excesiva ingesta de flúor. El objetivo principal, realizar una exploración y análisis de la producción académica sobre la concentración de flúor presente en el agua potable con el fin de encontrar una relación con la fluorosis dental en niños. Para ello, se partió del modelo PRISMA con el fin de proceder una revisión sistemática de artículos académicos escogidos mediante criterios de selección. Estos serán extraídos de cinco bases de datos, valiéndose entonces, de una metodología de tipo documental, cuya recolección de datos se efectuará en entornos virtuales. A partir de ello, se concluyó que la producción académica incluye a la concentración del flúor en agua potable como un modo de prevención para patologías dentales; no obstante, se debe conocer los niveles de flúor permitido en los niños, pues el exceso de flúor en los dientes origina fluorosis dental, la cual resulta ser causante de complejos psicológicos en los niños debido a un tema estético.

RESUMEN

O objetivo deste estudo clínico, controlado, randomizado, cego e prospectivo foi de avaliar a efetividade clínica de restaurações em lesões não cariosas (cavidades Classe V) realizadas em superfícies dentais pré-tratadas ou não com laser de Er:YAG e utilizando dois sistemas adesivos autocondicionantes. Este estudo foi realizado com um total de 91 lesões e divididas em 4 grupos (n = 23) :G1(FL): Sem pré-tratamento e utilizando o adesiso FL-Bond II/Shofu; G2 (CF): sem pré-tratamento e utilizando o adesivo Clearfil SE Bond 2/Kuraray Noritake; G3 (Laser + FL): pré-tratamento associado ao uso do FL-Bond II/Shofu e G4 (Laser + CF): pré-tratamento associado ao uso do Clearfil SE Bond 2/Kuraray Noritake Os dentes avaliados foram os pré-molares de ambas as arcadas. A avaliação foi feita imediatamente após o tratamento e ao longo do tempo, em 3, 6 e 12 meses após a finalização da restauração. Para a avaliação da sensibilidade foi considerado a EVA (Escala Visual Analógica) e para a qualidade da restauração o método do USPHS modificado, considerando a avaliação de perda de retenção, integridade marginal, pigmentação marginal, presença de lesão de cárie em margem de restauração, vitalidade pulpar e sensibilidade pós-operatória. Os dados foram registrados em tabelas de frequência, e os escores transformados em postos para a aplicação do teste ANOVA. A significância estatística foi considerada para valores de p<0,05. Para os resultados da avaliação de sensibilidade houve uma diferença estatística significante da sensibilidade ao longo do tempo (p<0,001), sendo que essa diferença se deu a partir da avaliação T1 (48 horas) em todos os grupos. Em relação aos critérios avaliados no USPHS, foram encontrados variações estatísticas em alguns tópicos: Pigmentação marginal - G1 (FL) (p=0,041) e G2 ( Laser + FL) (p=0,009) e Integridade marginal G1(FL)( p=0,036). Os demais grupos e critérios não apresentaram variações estatísticas significantes.Pré-tratamentos com laser Er:YAG podem ser uma alternativa viável em restaurações adesivas do tipo classe V; no entanto, nenhum efeito sinérgico de ambos os tratamentos combinados foi observado.

The objective of this clinical, controlled, randomized, blinded and prospective study was to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of restorations in non-carious lesions (Class V cavities) performed on dental surfaces pre-treated or not with Er:YAG laser and using two adhesive systems self-conditioning. This study was carried out with a total of 91 lesions and divided into 4 groups (n = 23) :G1(FL): No pre-treatment and using the FL-Bond II/Shofu adhesive; G2 (CF): without pre-treatment and using Clearfil SE Bond 2/Kuraray Noritake adhesive; G3 (Laser + FL): pre-treatment associated with the use of FL-Bond II/Shofu and G4 (Laser + CF): pre-treatment associated with the use of Clearfil SE Bond 2/Kuraray Noritake The teeth evaluated were the premolars of both arcades. Assessment was performed immediately after treatment and over time, at 3, 6, and 12 months after completion of the restoration. The VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) was used for the sensitivity assessment and the modified USPHS method for the quality of the restoration, considering the assessment of loss of retention, marginal integrity, marginal pigmentation, presence of caries in the restoration margin. , pulp vitality and postoperative sensitivity. Data were recorded in frequency tables, and the scores were transformed into ranks for the application of the ANOVA test. Statistical significance was considered for values of p<0.05. For the results of the sensitivity evaluation, there was a statistically significant difference in sensitivity over time (p<0.001), and this difference occurred from the T1 evaluation (48 hours) in all groups. Regarding the criteria evaluated at the USPHS, statistical variations were found in some topics: Marginal pigmentation - G1 (FL) (p=0.041) and G2 (Laser + FL) (p=0.009) and Marginal integrity - G1(FL)( p =0.036). The other groups and criteria did not present significant statistical variations. Pretreatments with Er:YAG laser can be a viable alternative in class V adhesive restorations; however, no synergistic effect of both treatments combined was observed.

RESUMEN

Oral diseases are limiting to health, welfare, and conservation practices, especially in the case of endangered animals. In this retrospective study, a survey on oral health-related conditions noted in the clinical records for 261 deer comprised in an ex situ population of the Marsh Deer Conservation Center (CCCP) over 30 years (1990-2020) was carried out. Of these, 49 (18.77%) marsh deer (31 females - 63.27% and 18 males - 36.73%) had clinical oral affections; the affected deer's mean age was 8.9 years. Logistic regression analysis was performed, and the variable age was significantly associated with the presence of dental affections. Thus, with a change in the age category, a deer had eight times the chance of manifesting oral affections; therefore, age can be considered a risk factor for the manifestation of oral affections in the species. Increased facial volume (65.3%), accumulation of food in the mouth (36.7%), tooth loss (22.4%), fistulas (22.4%), mucosal or palatal lesions (22.4%), tooth wear (20.4%), and tooth root exposure (18.3%) were the most frequently recorded lesions. The relatively high occurrence of oral affections in Blastocerus dichotomus reiterates the importance of oral health care when deer are kept in human care.

As doenças bucais são limitantes para as práticas de saúde, bem-estar e conservação, especialmente no caso de animais ameaçados de extinção. Neste estudo retrospectivo, realizou-se um levantamento sobre condições relacionadas à saúde bucal observadas nos registros clínicos de 261 cervídeos que compunham uma população ex situ do Centro de Conservação do Cervo-do-Pantanal durante um período de 30 anos (1990-2020). Destes, 49 (18,77%) cervos-do-pantanal (31 fêmeas (63,27%) e 18 machos (36,73%)) apresentavam afecções clínicas bucais; e a idade média dos cervídeos afetados foi de 8,9 anos. Realizou-se a análise de regressão logística e a variável idade mostrou associação significativa com a presença de afecções dentárias. Assim, com a mudança de categoria de idade, um cervídeo teve oito vezes mais chances de manifestar afecções bucais; portanto, a idade pode ser considerada como fator de risco para manifestação de afecções bucais na espécie. Aumento de volume facial (65,3%), acúmulo de alimentos na boca (36,7%), perda dentária (22,4%), fístulas (22,4%), lesões nas mucosas ou palatinas (22,4%), desgaste dentário (20,4%) e exposição de raiz (18,3%) foram as lesões mais registradas. A ocorrência relativamente alta de afecções bucais em Blastocerus dichotomus reitera a importância dos cuidados com a saúde bucal quando os cervídeos são mantidos sob cuidados humanos.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCCIÓN. Los cambios de color en los dientes acrílicos dependen de varios factores, con el humo de cigarrillo como uno de los principales agentes de igmentación de las prótesis. OBJETIVO. Valorar el grado de pigmentación en dientes acrílicos sometidos al humo del cigarrillo, mediante espectrofotometría digital. MATERIALES Y MÉTODOS. Estudio observacional, analítico, de caso y control. Muestra de 60 dientes acrílicos divididos en dos grupos: A (resina acrílica de 3 capas) y B (resina acrílica de 4 capas). Se subdividió en: grupo 1: dientes sometidos a humo de cigarrillo estándar con filtro de carbón; grupo 2: dientes sometidos a humo de cigarrillo estándar sin filtro; y, grupo 3: grupo control. Cada uno de éstos se expuso a 150 cigarrillos, 5 diarios durante 30 días y el grupo control fue mantenido a 37ºC en saliva artificial durante 30 días sin aplicación de humo de cigarrillo. Para la toma de color se empleó espectrofotómetro Vita Easyshade®. Los análisis se realizaron en el programa estadístico International Business Machines Statistical Package for the Social Sciences mediante la prueba de Kruskal-Wallis y comparaciones de Dunn. RESULTADOS. Se determinó que la pigmentación del grupo B fue mayor a la del grupo A, con una diferencia significativa entre ellos (p< 0,05). No se encontró datos estadísticamente significativos entre cigarrillos (con filtro - sin filtro). CONCLUSIÓN. La exposición al humo de cigarrillo pigmentó los dientes acrílicos de ambas propiedades siendo mayor en los dientes de resina acrílica de 4 capas.

INTRODUCTION. Color changes in acrylic teeth depend on several factors, with cigarette smoke as one of the main agents of denture pigmentation. OBJECTIVE. To assess the degree of pigmentation in acrylic teeth subjected to cigarette smoke, using digital spectrophotometry. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Observational, analytical, case-control study. Sample of 60 acrylic teeth divided into two groups: A (3-layer acrylic resin) and B (4-layer acrylic resin). It was subdivided into: group 1: teeth subjected to standard cigarette smoke with charcoal filter; group 2: teeth subjected to standard cigarette smoke without filter; and, group 3: control group. Each of these was exposed to 150 cigarettes, 5 daily for 30 days and the control group was maintained at 37ºC in artificial saliva for 30 days without application of cigarette smoke. Vita Easyshade® spectrophotometer was used for color determination. The analyses were performed in the statistical program International Business Machines Statistical Package for the Social Sciences using the Kruskal-Wallis test and Dunn's comparisons. RESULTS. It was determined that the pigmentation of group B was greater than that of group A, with a significant difference between them (p< 0,05). No statistically significant data was found between cigarettes (filtered - unfiltered). CONCLUSION. Cigarette smoke exposure pigmented acrylic teeth of both properties being higher in 4-layer acrylic resin teeth.

RESUMEN

Premature loss of primary anterior teeth in deciduous arches is a controversial topic in the literature, especially due to the lack of robust scientific evidence regarding the types and magnitudes of the consequences involved. Morphological, functional, and psychosocial problems may arise from untreated premature loss of primary incisors and canines. The morphological problems include impaction and eruption disturbances of permanent successors; inclination and/or extrusion of adjacent and antagonist teeth, respectively; midline deviation; and crowding. Functional complications, such as speech disorders, aesthetic problems, and development of non-nutritive habits may occur, resulting in psychosocial implications, including a decrease in self-esteem, and even being targeted for bullying. The current critical review aimed to present and discuss the evidence available in the literature about the etiology, characteristics, implications and interventions resulting from the premature loss of primary anterior teeth. It is of utmost importance that future studies be developed to support the clinical decisions made by dental professionals on this topic.

RESUMEN

SUMMARY: Most of the dental diseases occur due to tooth or jaw morphology or nutritional habits. Anatomical differences in the teeth and jaws of men and women can cause different dental diseases between the sexes. In this study, 33 skeletons obtained from the excavation of the ancient city of Parion, which are dated to the late Roman period, were examined. Dental diseases and possible causes were investigated on a total of 33 skeletons. In the evaluations, it was evaluated that some diseases were caused by the difference between the sexes, while some were classified as nutritional diseases. The rates of tooth decay are different between men and women with Parion. It has been determined that the most important reason for this is the different morphological structure of the jaws and teeth, but the nutritional differences also cause this. Other dental and jaw diseases were also evaluated in the Parion population.

RESUMEN: La mayoría de las enfermedades dentales se deben a la morfología de los dientes o la mandíbula o a los hábitos nutricionales. Las diferencias anatómicas en los dientes y las mandíbulas de hombres y mujeres pueden causar diferentes enfermedades dentales entre los sexos. En este estudio, se examinaron 33 esqueletos obtenidos de la excavación de la antigua ciudad de Parion, que datan del período romano tardío. Se investigaron las enfermedades dentales y las posibles causas en un total de 33 esqueletos. En las evaluaciones, se determinó que algunas enfermedades fueron causadas por la diferencia entre los sexos, mientras que otras fueron clasificadas como enfermedades nutricionales. Además se encontraron diferentes estimaciones de caries entre hombres y mujeres. Se analizó que la razón más importante de esto es la diferencia de la estructura morfológica de los maxilares y los dientes, sin embargo las diferencias nutricionales también es un factor que se debe considerar. Se evaluaron además, otras enfermedades dentales y de la mandíbula en la población de Parion.

RESUMEN

asistencia ventilatoria cuando la vía aérea y la consciencia están comprometidas. Los elementos utilizados en este procedimiento se encuentran en contacto directo con estructuras dentofaciales, causando diversos tipos de lesiones, principalmente bucales. Aunque existen cuidados clínicos durante procesos de intubación, hay poca información, particularmente de la zona norte del país donde se hayan evaluado las posibles asociaciones entre los motivos de consulta más frecuentes y las diversas características, tanto clínicas como no clínicas de pacientes que han sido intubados. Objetivo: Identificar las alteraciones bucodentales más frecuentes en pacientes intubados, así como explorar las posibles asociaciones de acuerdo con los motivos de intubación más frecuentes. Material y métodos: Se realizó un estudio observacional, transversal y comparativo en el cual se evaluaron alteraciones bucodentales y sistémicas de pacientes intubados. Los grupos de estudio se desarrollaron de acuerdo con el motivo de intubación y la determinación de las asociaciones fue con cada una de las alteraciones bucodentales y sistémicas. Resultados: El motivo de intubación más frecuente fue el evento cerebral vascular (EVC) y las alteraciones dentofaciales más prevalentes fueron caries, lengua saburral y cálculo dental, entre otras. Además, se encontraron diferencias significativas entre pacientes con EVC, mostrando una mayor frecuencia en tabaquismo, hipertensión arterial y diabetes mellitus, así como en la presencia de gingivitis y úlceras. Pacientes con traumatismo craneoencefálico (TCE) tuvieron mayor frecuencia en la presencia de periodontitis. Conclusión: El motivo de hospitalización y las condiciones sistémicas preexistentes pueden ser un factor de riesgo para desarrollar lesiones bucales específicas antes y durante el periodo de intubación (AU)

Introduction: Intubation is a procedure that allows ventilatory assistance when the airway and consciousness are compromised. The elements used in this procedure are in direct contact with dentofacial structures causing various types of injuries, mainly oral. Although there is clinical care during intubation processes, there is little information, particularly from the northern part of the country where the possible associations between the most frequent reasons for consultation and the various clinical and non-clinical characteristics of patients who have been intubated have been evaluated. Objective: The objectives of the present study were to identify the most frequent oral alterations in intubated patients, as well as to explore possible associations according to the most frequent reasons for intubation. Material and methods: An observational, cross-sectional and comparative study was carried out in which oral and systemic alterations of intubated patients were evaluated. The study groups were formed according to the reason for intubation and the association was determined with each of the oral and systemic disorders. Results: The most frequent reason for intubation was the vascular cerebral event (CVA) and the most prevalent dentofacial alterations were caries, coated tongue, and dental calculus, among others. In addition, significant differences were found between patients with CVA, showing a higher frequency in smoking, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus, as well as in the presence of gingivitis and ulcers. Patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) had a higher frequency in the presence of periodontitis. Conclusion: The reason for hospitalization and pre-existing systemic conditions can be a risk factor for developing specific oral lesions before and during the intubation period (AU)

RESUMEN

Conocer la prevalencia de las patologias odontológicas diagnósticas en la población adscrita en el Hospital comunitario de Achao ubicado en Achao, comuna de Quinchao, de mayo a diciembre de 2020. Se realizó un estudio observacional descriptivo a traves de la revisión de la totalidad de atenciones odontológicas realizadas en el Hospital comunitario de Achao, durante mayo a diciembre de 2020, registrando el sexo, la edad y el diagnóstico clínico según el motivo de consulta del paciente, realizado siempre por el mismo observador. Se revisaron 262 notificaciones que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión. El sexo femenino fue el que consultó con mayor frecuencia. La edad del 76 % de la población fue entre 19 a 60 años. 159 notificaciones correspondieron a urgencias odontológicas ambulatorias GES, siendo los diagnósticos más prevalentes; Periodontitis apical sintomática y pulpitis. Por otra parte, se observaron consultas por desalojo de obturaciones y piezas con periodontits crónica severa. La pandemia ha generado una reorganización considerable en lo que respecta a las atenciones dentales, la literatura muestra que es recomendable suspender las atenciones electivas y restringuirse a la atención de urgencias, de pacientes críticos y procedimientos que no puedan ser postergados; En estos casos, se deben adoptar todas las medidas de protección antes, durante y despues de la atención dental.

The objective of this study was to know the prevalence of diagnostic dental pathologies in the population assigned to the Achao Community Hospital located in Achao, Quinchao commune, from May 2020 to December 2020. A descriptive observational study was carried out through the review of all dental care performed at the Achao Community Hospital, during May to December 2020, recording sex, age and clinical diagnosis according to the reason for consultation of the patient, always carried out by the same observer. 262 notifications that met the inclusion criteria were reviewed. It was noted that females consulted most frequently. The age of 76 % of the population was between 19 to 60 years. 159 notifications corresponded to GES outpatient dental emergencies, being the most prevalent diagnoses; Symptomatic apical periodontitis and pulpitis. On the other hand, consultations were observed due to the dislodgement of fillings and pieces with severe chronic periodontitis. The pandemic has generated a considerable reorganization with regard to dental care, the literature shows that it is advisable to suspend elective care and restrict it to outpatient dental emergencies, critical patients and procedures that cannot be postponed; in these cases, all protective measures must be taken before, during and after dental care.

RESUMEN

Objetivo: Avaliar a associação entre idade na primeira consulta odontológica e o tipo de tratamento dentário realizado em pacientes infantis por meio de um estudo transversal que avaliou registros em prontuários odontológicos. Métodos: A coleta de dados foi realizada por meio de prontuários de pacientes de 0-5 anos atendidos em uma Clínica Escola de Odontologia, de março de 2014 a julho de 2018, com registro de informações referentes às características dos participantes e procedimentos odontológicos realizados. Para a análise dos dados, foram calculadas medidas descritivas e posteriormente os dados foram ajustados em um modelo de regressão logística; o desfecho foi o tipo de procedimento realizado, dicotomizado em tratamentos não-invasivos (fluorterapia e/ou restauração) e invasivos (endodontia e/ou exodontia). Resultados: Foram avaliados prontuários de 210 crianças, com média de idade na primeira consulta de 38 meses (DP=14,5). Fluorterpia e/ou restauração foram realizados em 74,8% das crianças, enquanto tratamentos invasivos foram realizados em 25,2% da amostra. A análise ajustada indicou um incremento (OR = 1,03, p = 0,027) na chance de realização de tratamentos invasivos com o aumento da idade das crianças na primeira consulta odontológica. Conclusão: Quanto maior a idade das crianças na primeira consulta, maior a chance de terem recebido um tratamento invasivo. Ressalta-se a importância da consulta odontológica nos primeiros meses de vida, com a finalidade de prevenção e manutenção da saúde bucal.(AU)

Objective: To evaluate the association between the age of the first dental visit and the type of dental treatment performed in infant patients through a cross-sectional study that examined dental records from the years 2014 to 2018. Methods: Data collection was conducted using medical records of patients aged 0 to 5 years treated at a Dental School Clinic, including information about participants' characteristics and the types of dental procedures performed. For data analysis, descriptive measures were calculated, and the data were subsequently fitted into a logistic regression model. The outcome was categorized into non-invasive treatments (fluoridation therapy and/or restoration) and invasive treatments (endodontics and/or extraction). Results: Medical records of 210 children were evaluated, with a mean age of the first dental visit being 38 months (SD = 14.5). Non-invasive treatments, including fluoride therapy and/or dental restoration, were performed in 74.8% of children, while invasive treatments were performed in 25.2% of the sample. Adjusted analysis indicated an increase (OR = 1.03, p = 0.027) in the odds of undergoing invasive treatments as the children's age at the first dental visit increased. Conclusion: Older age at the first appointment was associated with increased odds of receiving invasive treatment. The significance of early dental consultations within the first months of life is underscored, aiming to prevent and maintain oral health.(AU)

RESUMEN

RESUMEN El síndrome de Down con frecuencia se acompaña de defectos bucodentales que comprometen la función masticatoria y fonatoria del paciente. Las acciones de prevención y promoción de salud bucal, el diagnóstico precoz y seguimiento de estas enfermedades, contribuyen al logro del verdadero enfoque interdisciplinario que demandan estos pacientes, para lograr una plena inclusión social. Se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica sobre el tema, con el objetivo de estructurar los referentes teóricos relacionados con los principales defectos bucodentales -congénitos y adquiridos- que afectan a la población con síndrome de Down, para lograr la prevención de estos defectos y el incremento de la calidad de vida de los pacientes. Los defectos bucodentales congénitos más frecuentes encontrados en la trisomía 21, fueron la microdoncia, la macroglosia y la erupción dental tardía. La enfermedad periodontal fue el defecto adquirido de mayor presentación, al que se asocian diversos factores de riesgo, muchos modificables. Las intervenciones tempranas en salud bucal pueden incrementar la calidad de vida de los niños y adultos que padecen este trastorno, ayudándolos a lograr un pleno desarrollo como seres humanos (AU).

ABSTRACT Down's syndrome is frequently accompanied by oral-dental defects compromising the masticatory and phonatory function of the patients. Oral health promotion and prevention actions, precocious diagnosis and follow-up of these diseases contribute to achieving the true interdisciplinary approach these patients demand to reach their full social inclusion. A bibliographic search on the theme was carried out, with the objective of structuring the theoretical referents related to the main oral-dental defects -congenital and acquired-, affecting the population with Down's syndrome to reach these defects prevention and increasing these patients' life quality. The congenital oral-dental defects more commonly found in trisomy 21 were microdontia, macroglossia, and delayed tooth eruption. Periodontal disease was more frequently found acquired defect, to which several risk factors are associated, many of them modifiable. Early interventions in oral health may improve the life quality of these children and adults, helping them to achieve a full development as human beings (AU).

RESUMEN

Introduction: Biocorrosion is a multifactorial disorder that causes dissolution of hard tissues by extrinsic/ intrinsic factors. Traditionally, restoring biocorrosion wear involves invasive preparations. Objective: This case report aims to describe the rehabilitation of biocorrosion with a minimally invasive approach (thin occlusal and vestibular ceramic laminates) in a fully digital workflow using natural algorithms. Case report: A 23-year-old patient was presented to clinic with generalized tooth wear associated to dentin hypersensitivity. In anamnesis, eating disorders and acid food consumption were reported, supporting the diagnosis of biocorrosion. The restoration of worn tissues involved an additive approach (minimizing additional wear), using a face guided planning protocol and a natural tooth anatomy database to achieve greater naturalness at the final restorations. Rehabilitation of worn tissues was performed using occlusal, anterior ceramic veneers and additive composite restorations. The patient's natural teeth characteristics were preserved, restoring aesthetic and self-esteem, and after 2- year follow-up the patient remains very satisfied. Conclusion: Additive approaches involving the least amount of tissue wear are essential for the biocorrosion restoration. In addition, the integration of natural algorithms to digital workflows brings more aesthetic and precision to definitive restorations, overcoming one of the main challenges of milled aesthetic restorations: the naturalness.

Introdução: A biocorrosão é uma desordem multifatorial que causa a dissolução dos tecidos duros por fatores extrínsecos/intrínsecos. Tradicionalmente, a restauração do desgaste por biocorrosão envolve preparações invasivas. Objetivo: Este relato de caso tem como objetivo descrever a reabilitação da biocorrosão com uma abordagem minimamente invasiva (laminados cerâmicos oclusais e vestibulares finos) em um fluxo de trabalho totalmente digital usando algoritmos naturais. Relato de caso: Paciente de 23 anos foi atendido na clínica com desgaste dentário generalizado associado à hipersensibilidade dentinária. Na anamnese, foram relatados transtornos alimentares e consumo de alimentos ácidos, corroborando o diagnóstico de biocorrosão. A restauração de tecidos desgastados envolveu uma abordagem aditiva (minimizando o desgaste adicional), usando um protocolo de planejamento guiado pela face e um banco de dados de anatomia natural do dente para obter maior naturalidade nas restaurações finais. A reabilitação dos tecidos desgastados foi realizada usando facetas oclusais, anteriores de cerâmica e restaurações de resina composta aditiva. As características dos dentes naturais do paciente foram preservadas, restabelecendo a estética e a autoestima, e após 2 anos de acompanhamento o paciente continua muito satisfeito. Conclusão: As abordagens aditivas que envolvem o menor desgaste tecidual são essenciais para a restauração da biocorrosão. Além disso, a integração de algoritmos naturais aos fluxos de trabalho digitais traz mais estética e precisão às restaurações definitivas, superando um dos principais desafios das restaurações estéticas fresadas: a naturalidade.
