RESUMO

Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the osseointegration of a hydrophilic surface (blasting + acid etching + immersion in isotonic solution) in comparison with that of a control surface (blasting + acid etching) using an experimental model of low-density bone. To perform the study, 24 rabbits were submitted to the installation of 4 implants in the iliac bone bilaterally: 2 implants with a control surface and 2 implants with a hydrophilic surface. The rabbits were euthanized at 2, 4, and 8 weeks after implant installation. After euthanasia, one implant from each surface was used to perform the removal torque analysis, and the other implant was used for the execution of non-decalcified histological sections and evaluation of the bone implant contact (% BIC) as well as the fraction of bone tissue area between the implant threads (% BBT). The implants with a hydrophilic surface presented higher %BIC (42.92 ± 2.85% vs. 29.49 ± 10.27%) and % BBT (34.32 ± 8.52% vs. 23.20 ± 6.75%) (p < 0.05) in the 2-week period. Furthermore, the hydrophilic surface presented higher removal torque in the 8-week period (76.13 ± 16.00 Ncm2 vs. 52.77 ± 13.49 Ncm2) (p<0.05). Implants with a hydrophilic surface exhibited acceleration in the process of osseointegration, culminating in greater secondary stability in low-density bone than in implants with a control surface.

Resumo O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a osseointegração de uma superfície hidrofílica (jateamento + ataque ácido + imersão em solução isotônica) em comparação com uma superfície controle (jateamento + ataque ácido) usando um modelo experimental de osso de baixa densidade. Para realizar o estudo, 24 coelhos foram submetidos a instalação de 4 implantes bilateralmente no osso ilíaco: 2 implantes com superfície controle e 2 implantes com superfície hidrofílica. Os coelhos foram eutanasiados com 2, 4 e 8 semanas após a instalação dos implantes. Após a eutanásia, um implante de cada superfície foi usado para avaliar o torque de remoção, e o outro implante foi utilizado para execução de cortes histológicos não descalcificados e avaliação de contato osso implante (% BIC) bem como a fração da área tecido ósseo entre as roscas do implante (% BBT). Os implantes com superfície hidrofílica apresentaram maior %BIC (42.92 ± 2.85% vs. 29.49 ± 10.27%) e % BBT (34.32 ± 8.52% vs. 23.20 ± 6.75%) (p < 0.05) no período de 2 semanas. Além disso, a superfície hidrofílica apresentou maior torque de remoção no período de 8 semana (76.13 ± 16.00 Ncm2 vs. 52.77 ± 13.49 Ncm2) (p<0.05). Implantes com a superfície hidrofílica apresentaram aceleração no processo de osseointregração, culminando em melhor estabilidade secundária no osso de baixa densidade em relação a implantes com superfície controle.

RESUMO

Introduction: The consensus among researchers is that early failure of dental implants is due to the lack of primary stability and compressive stress on the peri-implant bone that exceeds the physiological tolerance. Objective: The objective of this work is to propose a new methodology to quantify bone stress during dental implant insertion and to correlate it with primary stability. Materials and Methods: Titanium dental implants with a diameter of 3.75 mm were inserted in a 3.35 mm hole of a synthetic bone of polyurethane (PU) foam with a density of 20 PCF (0.32 g/cm3). During insertion, the insertion torque was measured with a digital torque meter and the bone strain was measured with strain gages located at 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 mm from the coronal region. Results: The tests showed that the compressive strain is maximum in the third coronal region and decreases in the apical direction. The data also showed that there is a relationship between strain, insertion torque, and the primary stability of dental implants. Conclusion: The stress and strain on the bone progressively decreased from the coronal to the apical third. The maximum compressive stress (0.42 MPa) during insertion of the implant did not exceed bone strength. Insertion of 3.75 mm implants in type D2 bone with a 3.35 mm hole provides adequate primary stability without excessive compression of the bone. Clinical Significance: For the implant-bone combination used in the present study, the compressive stress generated during implant insertion did not exceed the physiological limit of cortical and medullary bone to the point of impairing osseointegration.

RESUMO

This review aims to present the mechanisms of protein interactions with titanium dental implant surfaces. Methods: the analyses were based on searches of scientific articles available in English and Portuguese in PubMed (MEDLINE), Bireme (LILACS), Scielo, Web of Science and Google Scholar. Results: titanium dental implant treatments success rates (95-98%) are mainly due to the biocompatibility of titanium oxide on the implant surface, surgical techniques adopted, good implants manufacturing processes and biomechanical knowledge of the systems. Studies in past decades has empirically developed implant surfaces with significant changes in morphologies, roughness, wettability, surface energy, chemical composition, and chemical groups density or deposited molecules. These changes promoted better protein adsorption, osteoblast adhesion, and changes in the mechanisms involved in osseointegration. Thus, the time to put the implant in function has been reduced and the success rates have increased. In the osseointegration process, at the nanoscale, there is no contact between the bone and the implant surface, but there is the formation of a protein anchorage between the periosteum and the implant with an interface formed by proteins. In all the reactions between the body and the implant surface, the activities of fibronectin and integrin are essential, since they are responsible for transmitting information to the cell for its differentiation, adhesion and mobility. Conclusion: thus, the analyses of protein-implant interactions are indispensable for a better understanding of the performance of osseointegrated dental implants

RESUMO

Titanium (Ti) alloys used for narrow dental implants usually contain aluminum (Al) and vanadium (V) for improved resistance. However, those elements are linked to possible cytotoxic effects. Thus, this study evaluated the biomechanical behavior of narrow dental implants made with Al- and V-free Ti alloys by the finite element method. A virtual model of a partially edentulous maxilla received single implants (diameter: 2.7 and 2.9 mm; length: 10 mm) at the upper lateral incisor area, with respective abutments and porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns. Simulations were performed for each implant diameter and the following eight alloys (and elastic moduli): (1) Ti-6Al-4V (control; 110 GPa), (2) Ti-35Nb-5Sn-6Mo-3Zr (85 GPa), (3) Ti-13Nb-13Zr (77 GPa), (4) Ti-15Zr (113 GPa), (5) Ti-8Fe-5Ta (120 GPa), (6) Ti-26.88Fe-4Ta (175 GPa), (7) TNTZ-2Fe-0.4O (107 GPa), and (8) TNTZ-2Fe-0.7O (109 GPa). The implants received a labially directed total static load of 100 N at a 45° angle relative to their long axis. Parameters for analysis included the maximum and minimum principal stresses for bone, and von Mises equivalent stress for implants and abutments. Ti-26.88Fe-4Ta reaches the lowest maximum (57 MPa) and minimum (125 MPa) principal stress values, whereas Ti-35Nb-5Sn-6Mo-3Zr (183 MPa) and Ti-13Nb-13Zr (191 MPa) models result in the highest principal stresses (the 2.7 mm model surpasses the threshold for bone overload). Implant diameters affect von Mises stresses more than the constituent alloys. It can be concluded that the narrow implants made of the Ti-26.88Fe-4Ta alloy have the most favorable biomechanical behavior, mostly by mitigating stress on peri-implant bone.

RESUMO

This review addresses the different aspects of the use of titanium and its alloys in the production of dental implants, the most common causes of implant failures and the development of improved surfaces capable of stimulating osseointegration and guaranteeing the long-term success of dental implants. Titanium is the main material for the development of dental implants; despite this, different surface modifications are studied aiming to improve the osseointegration process. Nanoscale modifications and the bioactivation of surfaces with biological molecules can promote faster healing when compared to smooth surfaces. Recent studies have also pointed out that gradual changes in the implant, based on the microenvironment of insertion, are factors that may improve the integration of the implant with soft and bone tissues, preventing infections and osseointegration failures. In this context, the understanding that nanobiotechnological surface modifications in titanium dental implants improve the osseointegration process arouses interest in the development of new strategies, which is a highly relevant factor in the production of improved dental materials.

RESUMO

Endosseous implant surface topography directly affects adherent cell responses following implantation. The aim of this study was to examine the impact of nanoscale topographic modification of titanium implants on Osterix gene expression since this gene has been reported as key factor for bone formation. Titanium implants with smooth and nanoscale topographies were implanted in the femurs of Osterix-Cherry mice for 1-21 days. Implant integration was evaluated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to evaluate cell adhesion on implant surfaces, histology, and nanotomography (NanoCT) to observe and quantify the formed bone-to-implant interface, flow cytometry to quantify of Osterix expressing cells in adjacent tissues, and real-time PCR (qPCR) to quantify the osteoinductive and osteogenic gene expression of the implant-adherent cells. SEM revealed topography-dependent adhesion of cells at early timepoints. NanoCT demonstrated greater bone formation at nanoscale implants and interfacial osteogenesis was confirmed histologically at 7 and 14 days for both smooth and nanosurface implants. Flow cytometry revealed greater numbers of Osterix positive cells in femurs implanted with nanoscale versus smooth implants. Compared to smooth surface implants, nanoscale surface adherent cells expressed higher levels of Osterix (Osx), Alkaline phosphatase (Alp), Paired related homeobox (Prx1), Dentin matrix protein 1 (Dmp1), Bone sialoprotein (Bsp), and Osteocalcin (Ocn). In conclusion, nanoscale surface implants demonstrated greater bone formation associated with higher levels of Osterix expression over the 21-day healing period with direct evidence of surface-associated gene regulation involving a nanoscale-mediated osteoinductive pathway that utilizes Osterix to direct adherent cell osteoinduction.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The interaction between antineoplastic drugs used for treating cancer and non-affected tissues remains poorly assessed and may be critical for maintaining the quality of life for patients during and after treatment. This pre-clinical study evaluated the effects of cisplatin (CIS) and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) on the peri-implant repair process around osseointegrated titanium implants installed in the tibiae of rats. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Were used 90 male rats, randomly divided into three groups (n = 30): physiological saline solution (PSS), CIS, and 5-FU. Titanium implants (4.0 × 2.2 mm) were inserted in both tibiae of all animals at day 0. The animals received either PSS, CIS, or 5-FU at 35 and 37 days. Euthanasia was performed at 50, 65, and 95 days after surgery. Histometric (bone/implant contact [BIC]) and bone area fraction occupancy (% BAFO), histological, and immunohistochemical (for bone morphogenetic protein 2/4 [BMP2/4], Runt-related transcription factor 2 [RUNX2], osteocalcin [OCN], and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase [TRAP]) analyses were performed. Data were statistically analyzed. RESULTS: Groups CIS and 5-FU presented lower BIC and lower BAFO as compared with PSS in all time points. The imbalance in bone turnover was observed by the lower number of BMP2/4-, RUNX2-, and OCN-positive cells/mm2 and the higher number of TRAP-positive cells/mm in groups CIS and 5-FU as compared with PSS in all time points. Persistent and exacerbated inflammation was observed in groups CIS and 5-FU. CONCLUSIONS: Both antineoplastic agents interfered negatively in the bone turnover around osseointegrated titanium implants. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Closer and more careful follow-up of patients with osseointegrated implants that will undergo chemotherapy with either CIS or 5-FU shall be performed.

RESUMO

Este estudo teve como objetivo comparar o efeito de 04 filtros de realce de imagem - Multi CDT NR1 e BAR1 - do software e-Vol DX (e-Vol DX, CDT, Brasil) e os filtros 1x e 2x do software Ondemand3D (CyberMed, Seoul, Republic of Korea), na quantificação de artefatos gerados por implantes dentários em imagens de tomografia computadorizada de feixe cônico (TCFC). Foram utilizadas imagens de TCFC de um phantom de mandíbula, adquiridas com variação do material do implante (titânio (Ti) e dióxido de zircônio (ZrO2)), região do implante (incisivo, canino, pré-molar e molar), tamanho do voxel (0,25 mm e 0,30mm) e posição do phantom no FOV (central, anterior, posterior, direita e esquerda). No software ImageJ em corte axial previamente definido, e usado como referência em cada um dos volumes estudados, em imagens com e sem a aplicação dos filtros, foi realizado a quantificação dos artefatos por um radiologista devidamente calibrado (ICC 0,97). Foram definidos grupos experimentais para as análises estatísticas das variáveis 02 a 02, sempre aliadas à variável filtro e seus efeitos na quantificação dos artefatos. Os testes de Shapiro-Wilk e de Bartlett, foram utilizados para avaliar a normalidade e homoscedasticidade. Para estudo das diferenças significativas entre os grupos foram utilizados os testes de ANOVA e Tukey (paramétricos), Kruskal-Wallis seguido de Conover-Iman (não paramétricos). Os resultados evidenciaram que o Ti apresentou menor quantificação em comparação ao ZrO2, nos 02 softwares. A menor quantificação de artefatos foi obtida no software e-Vol DX, filtro BAR 1, Ti e ZrO2. Não houve diferença significativa em relação ao tamanho do voxel para os materiais estudados (p=0,975 e p=0,901), posição do implante (p>0.05) e variações de posição no FOV (p>0.05). O Filtro Multi não apresentou diferenças significativas em relação às imagens sem filtro. Para os filtros do OnDemad3D, não houve diferença entre uso e não uso, independentemente do tamanho do voxel (p>0,05). Em conclusão o filtro BAR 1 apresentou-se como uma promissora ferramenta na redução dos artefatos oriundos de implantes dentários. (AU)

This study aimed to compare the effect of 04 image enhancement filters - Multi CDT NR1 and BAR1 - of the e-Vol DX software (e-Vol DX, CDT, Brazil) and the 1x and 2x filters of the Ondemand3D software (CyberMed, Seoul, Republic of Korea), in the quantification of artifacts generated by dental implants in cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images. CBCT images of a mandible phantom were used, acquired with variation of the implant material (titanium (Ti) and zirconium dioxide (ZrO2)), implant region (incisor, canine, premolar and molar), voxel size (0.25 mm and 0.30 mm) and phantom position in the FOV (central, anterior, posterior, right and left). In the ImageJ software, in a previously defined axial section, and used as a reference in each of the volumes studied, in images with and without the application of filters, the quantification of the artifacts was performed by a properly calibrated radiologist (ICC 0.97). Experimental groups were defined for the statistical analysis of variables 02 to 02, always combined with the filter variable and its effects on the quantification of artifacts. The Shapiro-Wilk and Bartlett tests were used to assess normality and homoscedasticity. To study the significant differences between the groups, the ANOVA and Tukey tests (parametric), Kruskal-Wallis followed by Conover-Iman (non-parametric) were used. The results showed that Ti presented lower quantification compared to ZrO2, in the 02 softwares. The lowest quantification of artifacts was obtained using the e-Vol DX software, BAR 1, Ti and ZrO2 filters. There was no significant difference regarding voxel size for the materials studied (p=0.975 and p=0.901), implant position (p>0.05) and position variations in the FOV (p>0.05). The Multi Filter did not present significant differences in relation to the unfiltered images. For OnDemad3D filters, there was no difference between use and non-use, regardless of voxel size (p>0.05). In conclusion, the BAR 1 filter presented itself as a promising tool in the reduction of artifacts from dental implants (AU)

RESUMO

Objetivo: caracterizar o processo de reparo ósseo peri-implantar em maxilas de ratas ovariectomizadas com síndrome metabólica induzida por dieta de cafeteria, tratadas com risedronato e instalação de implantes funcionalizados com [Ru(terpy)(bdq)NO]3+ (TERPY). Materiais e métodos: os testes in vitro realizados na Fase 1 avaliou as propriedades biológicas e físico-químicas da melhor concentração da TERPY frente às respostas osteogênicas, para a funcionalização dos implantes pela técnica de LbL. A realização de experimentos in vivo na Fase 2 avaliou o efeito da superfície funcionalizada durante o reparo ósseo peri-implantar. Para isso, 48 ratas Wistar foram divididas em: SHAM CONV (n=8), OVX SM CONV (n=8), OVX SM RIS CONV (n=8), SHAM TERPY (n=8), OVX SM TERPY (n=8) e OVX SM RIS TERPY (n=8). Em t=0, as ratas foram submetidas à cirurgia fictícia (SHAM) e à cirurgia de ovariectomia bilateral (OVX); após a recuperação da cirurgia, os animais receberam a dieta de cafeteria (SM). Passados 30 dias (t=30), o tratamento medicamentoso com risedronato de sódio (0,7 mg/kg/semana) (RIS) ou solução salina (0,3 ml), via gavagem, foi iniciado e realizado até o momento da eutanásia. Sessenta dias após o início do tratamento medicamentoso (t=90), a cirurgia de exodontia do primeiro molar superior foi realizada junto à instalação imediata dos implantes de forma bilateral (CONV ou TERPY). Quatorze dias após a cirurgia de instalação dos implantes (t=104), todos os grupos experimentais receberam a injeção intramuscular do fluorocromo calceína (20 mg/kg) e após 10 dias (t=114), do fluorocromo vermelho de alizarina (25 mg/kg). Aos 28 dias pós-operatórios (dia da eutanásia, t=118), os animais foram anestesiados e, nas maxilas do lado direito, os implantes foram submetidos ao torque reverso e imediatamente após a remoção dos implantes, foi realizada a coleta do tecido ósseo para análise de PCR tempo real para avaliação da expressão relativa de ALP, iBSP, OCN, OPG, RANKL, TRAP e VEGF, seguido da eutanásia dos animais; as maxilas do lado esquerdo foram coletadas para a análise de Micro-CT (BV/TV, Tb.Th, Tb.N, Tb.Sp e i.S) e, após o escaneamento, as mesmas passaram pelo processamento para análise da dinâmica óssea por fluorocromos (MAR e ELCOI). Os dados foram submetidos à análise estatística, com o nível de significância de 5% (p<0,05). Resultados: Fase 1: poucas diferenças foram observadas entre as duas concentrações avaliadas e assim, a menor concentração do fármaco foi selecionada (10µM). Fase 2: os implantes funcionalizados com a TERPY apresentaram os maiores valores absolutos de torque de remoção para todos os grupos e com diferença estatística para OVX SM TERPY (p=0,0402). A associação sistêmica entre o risedronato e a TERPY em ratas ovariectomizadas (OVX SM RIS TERPY) demonstrou expressão aumentada para iBSP e equilíbrio entre OPG e RANKL, corroborando com os dados obtidos para MAR (p=0,0052) e com os parâmetros de BV/TV, Tb.Th e i.S da análise microtomográfica para esse mesmo grupo. Conclusão: o desempenho clínico dos implantes funcionalizados com TERPY foi favorável, e, quando associado à administração sistêmica de risedronato de sódio, os resultados se tornam mais promissores(AU)

Objective: characterize the peri-implant bone tissue repair process in maxilla of ovariectomized rats with metabolic syndrome induced by cafeteria diet, treated with risedronate and through placement the implants functionalized with [Ru(terpy)(bdq)NO]3+ (TERY). Materials and methods: in vitro tests performed in Phase 1 evaluated the biological and physicochemical properties of the better concentration of TERPY against osteogenic responses, for the functionalization of implants using the LbL technique. In vivo experiments in Phase 2 evaluated the effect of functionalized surface during peri-implant bone repair. For this, 48 female rats were divided: SHAM CONV (n=8), OVX SM CONV (n=8), OVX SM RIS CONV (n=8), SHAM TERPY (n=8), OVX SM TERPY (n=8) and OVX SM RIS TERPY (n=8). At t=0, the rats underwent unreal surgery (SHAM) and bilateral ovariectomy surgery (OVX); after recovery from surgery, animals received cafeteria diet (SM). After 30 days (t=30), drug treatment with risedronate sodium (0.7 mg/kg/week) (RIS) or saline solution (0.3 ml), via gavage, was started and sustained out until the time of euthanasia. Sixty days after the start of drug treatment (t=90), the maxillary first molar extraction surgery was performed followed by the immediate installation of the implants bilaterally (CONV or TERPY). Fourteen days after implant placement surgery (t=104), all experimental groups received intramuscular injection of the fluorochrome calcein (20 mg/kg) and after 10 days (t=114), the red fluorochrome alizarin (25 mg/kg). After 28 postoperative days (day of euthanasia, t=118), the animals were anesthetized and, in the maxillary on the right side, the implants were subjected to reverse torque and immediately after removal of the implants, bone tissue was collected for real-time PCR analysis to measure the relative expression of ALP, iBSP, OCN, OPG, RANKL, TRAP e VEGF, followed by euthanasia of animals; the left side maxillary were collected for Micro-CT analysis (BV/TV, Tb.Th, Tb.N, Tb.Sp e i.S) and, after scanning, they underwent processing for analysis of bone dynamics by fluorochromes (MAR and ELCOI). Data values were subjected to statistical analysis, with a significance level of 5% (p<0.05). Results: Phase 1: few differences were observed between the two concentrations evaluated and thus, the lowest drug concentration was selected (10µM). Phase 2: the implants functionalized with TERPY presented the highest absolute values of removal torque for all groups and with statistical difference for OVX SM TERPY (p=0.0402). The systemic association between risedronate and TERPY in ovariectomized rats (OVX SM RIS TERPY) showed increased expression for iBSP and balance between OPG and RANKL, corroborating the data obtained for MAR (p=0.0052) and with the parameters BV/TV, Tb.Th and i.S of the microtomographic analysis for this same group. Conclusion: the clinical performance of implants functionalized with TERPY was favorable, and when associated with the systemic administration of risedronate sodium, the results become more promising(AU)

RESUMO

ABSTRACT Purpose To analyze and compare the reactions at the interface between the composite, composed of fragmented heterologous mineralized bone matrix (MOMHF) and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), and the rabbit's tibias, through macroscopic evaluation and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) in different periods. Methods In this study, 12 New Zealand adult rabbits were used (E1: n = 3, E2: n = 3, E3: n = 3 and E4: n = 3). They had the right tibial defects filled with composite and were evaluated immediately after surgery and at 30, 60, 90, and 120 days. Results The composites were incorporated and integrated into the recipient beds in 100% of the cases, defined by the MOMHF osseointegration and the PMMA fibrointegration, with no sign of infection, migration, or rejection. Conclusions The behavior of the composites in the recipient beds demonstrates that these biomaterials have the potential to be used in bone defect repairs, offering, thus, better quality of life to the orthopedic patient.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT: The present study aims to describe, through a case report, the functioning of bone grafts, where they are obtained including bone banks and the different dental areas in which it is used. A 50-year.old female patient HMR, sought the postgraduate college of dentistry CECAPE for oral rehabilitation. The initial clinical examination revealed the absence of several dental elements in both the maxilla and mandi ble, bone resorption in the entire maxillary extension where there was an absence of elements in the anterior region and the presence of a torus in the palatal region. Initial tomographic examinations of the maxilla and mandible were performed, looking for the best conduct regarding the diagnosis and planning of the case. After the clinical and radiographic examinations was performed, and the diagnosis was reached, it was determined as a treatment for oral rehabilitation of the maxilla, bone grafting and an Implant-supported Removable Partial Prosthesis and for the mandible a Dento-muco-supported Removable Partial Prosthesis. Dental treatments and oral rehabilitation from the use of bone tissues and bone grafting have become commonly used. Procedures that would normally lead to failure started to increase the percentage of successes due to the use of these biomaterials. The use of bone grafts in dentistry has been shown to be a very effective and useful resource, considering its great applicability in bone reconstructions in different areas of dentistry.

Una paciente HMR, de 50 años de edad, asistió el centro universitario de posgrado CECAPE para rehabilitación oral. El examen clínico inicial reveló la ausencia de varios dientes tanto en el maxilar como en la mandíbula, la resorción ósea en toda la extensión maxilar donde había ausencia de dientes en la región anterior y la presencia de un torus en la región palatina. Se realizaron exámenes tomográficos iniciales del maxilar y mandíbula, buscando la mejor conducta con respecto al diagnóstico y la planificación del caso. Después de los exámenes clínicos y radiográficos realizados y el diagnóstico listo, se determinó como un tratamiento para la rehabilitación oral del maxilar, el injerto óseo y una prótesis removible implantosoportada y para la mandíbula una prótesis parcial removible dento-muco-soportada. Los tratamientos dentales y la rehabilitación oral a partir del uso de tejidos óseos y el injerto óseo se han utilizado comúnmente. Los procedimientos que normalmente conducirían al fracaso comenzaron a aumentar el porcentaje de éxitos debido al uso de estos biomateriales. Se ha demostrado que el uso de injertos óseos en odontología es un recurso muy eficaz y útil, considerando su gran aplicabilidad en las reconstrucciones óseas en diferentes áreas de la odontología.

RESUMO

Abstract This study aimed to investigate the effects of chronic restraint stress (RS) and a high-fat diet (HFD) on the osseointegration of titanium implants in a rat model. After the surgical insertion of titanium implants into the metaphysis of the tibial bone, the rats were randomly divided into four equal groups (n = 8 each): control (CNT), restraint stress (RS), high-fat diet (HFD), and restraint stress plus high fat diet (RS-HFD). CNT: Rats received no further treatment during the 92-day experimental period. RS: Stress was applied to the rats beginning from two days after the implant surgery for one hour per day for the first 30 days, two hours per day for the next 30 days, and three hours per day for the last 30 days. HFD: Rats were fed a HFD for the following 90 days starting two days after surgery. RS-HFD: Rats were fed a HFD and RS was applied to rats for the following 90 days, starting two days after surgery. At the end of the experimental period, the rats were euthanized, and the implants and surrounding bone tissues were removed for histological analysis. Statistical analysis was performed by one way ANOVA and Bonferrroni tests. There were no significant differences in the bone-implant connection levels between the groups (p > 0.05), but in the HFD and RS-HFD groups, the bone filling ratios were found to be lower compared with the controls (p < 0.05) The data analyzed in this study suggest that an HFD with or without chronic RS adversely affected bone tissue in the rats during the 90-day osseointegration period.

RESUMO

Introduction: The bone-implant interface has been studied extensively, but only few papers focused on the nutritional aspects that may affect bone quality, especially salt intake. Objective: To study the osseointegration of implants in salt-loaded rats with low mineral bone content. Methods: A total of 60 4-month-old male rats were divided in 2 groups ( n = 30), being these groups divided in 2 periods, (2 and 4 months). The control group received a normal diet, while the test group received a diet supplemented with 1% sodium chloride (NaCl). Implants were placed in the tibia of both groups. A total of 15 animals of each group were sacrificed at the 2 nd month of the experiment, while the remaining animals were sacrificed at the 4 th month. Results: No statistically significant difference was found in food intake between the groups on any experimental period, but a statistically significant difference was found in the liquid intake in the saline group in both periods. For all groups, osseointegration was observed in both groups. The mean percentage of osseointegration in the cortical bone, in the trabecular bone, and in the total osseointegrated surface between the control (46.38 ± 16.17%) and saline (49.13 ± 11.52%) groups at 2 months was not statistically different ( p = 0.61). The total osseointegration areas of the control (53.98 ± 12.06%) and saline (51.40 ± 13.01%) groups at the 4 th month of the study were not statistically ( p = 0.61). Conclusion: Ingestion of salt did not affect directly the osseointegration process during the period of the experiment. The results suggest that mineral losses may not affect the achievement of good osseointegration in aging rats. (AU)

RESUMO

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the labral height and pullout resistance after the repair of Bankart lesions in the glenohumeral joint of swine models, using double-loaded anchors with two suture configurations: simple and Mason-Allen. Methods: Ten swine shoulders were used, in which Bankart lesions were created. For each specimen, the lesion was sutured randomly with Mason-Allen sutures or simple sutures. The labral height was measured before the lesion was created and after the labral repair. The specimens were submitted to a tensile test for biomechanical evaluation. Results: In specimens submitted to simple suture (n = 5), the mean labral height observed before the lesion was 3.86 mm, and after suturing, 3.33 mm. In specimens submitted to Mason-Allen suture (n = 5), it was observed that the mean labral height before the lesion was 3.92 mm, and after suturing, 3.48 mm. When comparing the labral height after simple suture and Mason-Allen suture, no significant difference was observed. The pullout force at the end of the tensile test on specimens with single suture was 130 N, and in specimens with Mason-Allen suture, 128.6 N. No statistically significant differences were observed between the shoulders treated with single suture and Mason-Allen suture; p = 0.885. Conclusions: Repair of Bankart lesions with Mason-Allen suture provides increased labrum height; however, it does not increase the pullout strength.

RESUMO Objetivo: Avaliar a altura labral e a resistência ao arrancamento do reparo da lesão de Bankart em articulação glenoumeral de suínos, com âncoras duplamente carregadas com duas configurações de sutura: simples e tipo Mason-Allen. Métodos: Foram usados dez ombros suínos, nos quais foram criadas as lesões de Bankart. Para cada espécime foi feita a sutura da lesão com suturas tipo Mason-Allen e simples de forma aleatória. A altura labral foi mensurada previamente à confecção da lesão e após o reparo labral. Os espécimes foram submetidos ao ensaio de tração para avaliação biomecânica. Resultados: Nos espécimes submetidos a sutura simples (n = 5), observou-se altura média previamente à confecção da lesão de 3,86 mm e após a sutura, de 3,33 mm. Nos espécimes submetidos a sutura Mason-Allen (n = 5), observou-se que a altura média previamente à confecção da lesão era de 3,92 mm e após a sutura, de 3,48 mm. Ao comparar a altura labral após a sutura simples e Mason-Allen, não foram observadas diferenças significantes. A força de arrancamento no fim do ensaio de tração nos espécimes com sutura simples foi de 130 N e nos espécimes com sutura Mason-Allen, 128,6 N. Não houve diferença estatisticamente significante entre os ombros com suturas simples e Mason-Allen, p = 0,885. Conclusões: O reparo das lesões de Bankart com sutura Mason-Allen proporciona aumento da altura do labrum, mas não eleva a força de resistência ao arrancamento.

RESUMO

Purpose: To evaluate the influence of subcutaneous injection nicotine in osseointegration process on different implant surfaces. Methods: Twenty-two male rabbits were distributed into two groups according to the subcutaneous injections: (1) nicotine 3 mg/day/kg and (2) 0.9 % NaCI 3 mL/day/kg, three times a day; subgroups were then designated-machined and anodized implants were placed in the right and left tibia bones, respectively. The animals were submitted euthanasia after periods of eight weeks to determine nicotine and cotinine levels, alkaline phosphatase and biomechanical analysis. Results: The plasmatic levels of nicotine and cotinine were 0.5 ± 0.28 ng/mL and 9.5 ± 6.51 ng/mL, respectively. The alkaline phosphatase analyses in blood levels in control group were observed 40.8 ± 11.88 UI/L and 40.75 ± 12.46 UI/L, for the surfaces machined and anodized, respectively. In the test group was observed levels 37.9 ± 4.84 UI/L, for both implant surfaces. No significant differences were observed between control and test groups and between the implant surfaces regarding alkaline phosphatase blood levels. For biomechanics, no significant differences were observed in control group between the machined (25±8.46 Ncm) or anodized (31.2 ± 6.76 Ncm) implants. However, the treatment with nicotine induced higher torque than control in both machined (38.3 ± 13.52 Ncm) and anodized (35.5 ± 14.17 Ncm) implants, with p = 0.0024 and p = 0.0121, respectively.Conclusion: Subcutaneous injection of nicotine following implant insertion didnt have effect on osseointegration, independently from the implant surface.(AU)
