Frequência de ressonância e sondagem peri-implantar em implantes curtos sob carga imediata com prótese total fixa em cantiléver na arcada mandibular: acompanhamento de um ano

This paper presents a case report with the use of short dental implants and immediate prosthesis placement. After 13 months of follow-up, peri-implant probing values are near 1.87 mm and ISQ values around 78.56.

Considerações gerais sobre prótese fixa adesiva

The success rate of resin-bonded fixed partial dentures is directly related to the adhesive system and the tooth preparation design for good retention. These resin-bonded bridges represent a prosthodontic alternative, based on their costeffectiveness, conservative techniques, and ease of laboratory manufacturing. Through a thorough review of the literature, this study aimed to report on cavity designs, types of materials used, and the advantages and disadvantages of the resin-bonded fixed partial denture. One of significant advantages of the resin-bonded fixed partial dentures is the conservation of the tooth structure, whereas its main disadvantage includes aesthetic limitations, given that the alloy may in fact be visible. Preparation design, cement type, and casting alloy type, as well as surface treatment, are among the factors that influence the longevity of resin-bonded fixed partial dentures. Treatments with resin-bonded fixed partial dentures present a bright outlook regarding the conservation of tooth structures, as well as a high level of success.

Prótese metalocerâmica associada à prótese metaloplástica implantossuportada em paciente desdentado total

The use of different methods and materials should be considered during the planning of implant-supported prostheses. Complications such as fractures of the acrylic resin base, wear and fracture of teeth can occur frequently, creating the need for careful planning for each patient, which can make the selection of the type of treatment more complex. Thus, this article describes the oral rehabilitation of a completely edentulous patient with bimaxillary fixed implant-supported prosthesis, with complaints on aesthetics, loss of vertical dimension and fracture of acrylic resin teeth of the upper arch. After the restoration of vertical dimension, his dentures were replaced with new bimaxillary implant-supported fixed prostheses, ceramic and acrylic resin were used as veneering material for maxilla and mandible, respectively. At the end of the treatment, the patient received bimaxillary flat occlusal splints to protect the teeth and implants of possible parafunctional habits. The approach for the treatment allowed a quick and effective resolution, with aesthetic and functional outcomes very favorable for the patient.

Associação de prótese fixa, implantes e estética periodontal para reabilitação de pacientes parcialmente edêntulos

Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease that results in the destruction of teeth and their supporting tissues with subsequent tooth loss. The replacement of missing teeth for implant-supported restorations has proven to be a highly predictable treatment method with good long-term prognosis. However, some consequences of tooth loss prevents dental implant placement in an ideal position, where regenerative procedures are necessary for this type of rehabilitation. Less invasive procedures such as conventional prosthesis emerge as a therapeutic option in cases where there is enough bone structure for implants and patient´s non-acceptance for invasive procedures. Thus, this paper aims to present the resolution of rehabilitation through a noninvasive and multidisciplinary treatment. One female patient referred to the clinic presented maladaptive bilateral mandibular fixed prostheses, endodontic lesions, gingival recession, and root sensitivity. For proper resolution of this case, an association among osseointegrated implants, fixed partial prosthesis, tooth extraction, and aesthetic periodontal procedures with the use of subepithelial connective tissue graft was proposed. After two years, the patient shows excellent aesthetics and chewing. Within the limits of this scenario, this paper discusses the various factors that may affect the choice of a particular treatment modality for the rehabilitation of edentulous single spaces.

Uso de variáveis relacionadas com a produção embrionária, em camundongos, como fatores preditivos

Mouse embryo production by superstimulation is a multifactorial process. To minimize the number of sacrificed animals and to maximize the results of the superstimulatory treatment, it should be possible to predict the risk of do not get embryos from such a treated animal. This work aimed to evaluate if the variables - hormone concentration and the timing of its administration, the copulatory plug presence and individual male used to mating – could be predictive factors on the mouse embryo production. Females were distributed in four groups (cross-over design) related to scheduled superstimulation treatment (1300h or 1700h) and eCG/hCG administered concentration (5 or 10IU). After the hCG treatment, females were put to mate. On the next morning it was verified the presence of a copulatory plug (D0.5). Embryo recovery was performed from D2.5 to D4.5 by flushing the oviducts and uterine horns. Total structures recovered (TSR) and the viable embryos (VE) were classified by its morphology. Viability rate (VR) was calculated with VE in relation to TSR (x100). Group comparison was analyzed with 5% of significance. There were no significant differences among groups, even when only main effects were analyzed (hormone concentration and timing of its administration). There was significant difference in VR from animals with or without plug and from the worst and best males used. It was concluded that neither the hormone concentration nor timing of its administration - or their association – was significant as predictive factors for the embryo production. However, the plug presence was related to higher VR.
