Montagem e confecção do set up ortodôntico

Diagnosis and planning stages are critical to the success of orthodontic treatment, in which the orthodontist should have many elements that contribute to the most appropriate decision-making. The orthodontic set-up is an important resource in the planning of corrective orthodontics therapy. It consists of the repositioning of the teeth previously removed from the study dental casts and reassembled on its remaining basis. When properly made, the set-up allows a three-dimensional preview of problems and limitations of the case, assisting in decision-making regarding tooth extractions in cases with problems of space, amount of anchorage loss extent and type of tooth movement, discrepancy of dental arch perimeter, discrepancy of inter-arch tooth volume, among others, indicating the best option for treatment. This paper outlines the most important steps for its confection, an evaluation system and its application in the preparation of orthodontic treatment planning.

Necessidade de ancoragem do grupo A e o controle biomecanico da mola T pré-ativada por curvatura para o fechamento de espacos

Contemporary orthodontics has sought, beyond the esthetic, occlusal and functional goals, treatments even faster and with less visits to the orthodontist — especially in patients that require dental extractions in which the generated space becomes a nuisance. The segmented arch technic (SAT), by the use of a "T" loop spring, has provided such results within these requirements. Therefore, this study aimed to appraise and demonstrate the confection, activation and biomechanical control of "T" loop spring, in the group with high anchorage necessity (group A), for retraction of anterior teeth; as well as to present a case report, with high anterior retraction necessity, treated with "T" loop spring.

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.

Reabilitação estético-funcional sobre implantes agulhados e endósseos

This report shows the resolution of a case study whose aim was promote the aesthetic and functional rehabilitation of upper left hemi-arch over endosseous and needle implant prostheses. To improve the position of the needle implants, we performed the bucco-palatal bending of needles splinting them with composite resin; we removed the screwed implant prosthesis in the regions of the premolars (24 and 25) and molar (26). The mini-abutments of the last two implants were replaced, and in the first premolar and canine, we used cemented abutments due to implant angulation having planned soldering because of implant size and contact with one needle implant that could interfere with intimate contact bone/implant damaging biomechanics. Pick-up impressions were performed with an open tray, using a retractor cord in the needle implants and respective transfer copings. Therefore, models were related on semi-adjustable articulator after a face-bow recording and interocclusal indexes. After working cast fabrication and try-in of infra-structures, these were adjusted and related into the articulator again. Then, after ceramic build-up, adjustments, finishing, and torque, chemically-activated resin cement was applied on units 21 to 24. At the end of the case, we concluded that a good aesthetic and functional rehabilitation depends on thorough knowledge of techniques for each clinical situation.

Processing yield and chemical composition of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) with regard to body weight

The influence of weight (W) category of the rainbow trout on processing yield and chemical composition of the entire eviscerated fish and fish fillet was analyzed. A completely randomized design was employed for processing variables (W1 = 300 to 370 g and W2 = 371 to 440) coupled to a 2 x 2 factorial scheme for the chemical composition (W1 and W2 and forms of presentation: fillet and whole eviscerated fish). W1 showed higher yield for entire eviscerated fish (83.00%) and head (13.27%), but a lower yield for the viscera (17.00%), when compared to W2. We did not affect abdominal muscle yield, fillet with or without skin, skin percentage and residues. There were significant differences between W for moisture (W1 = 72.30% and W2 = 71.15%) and lipids (CP1 = 7.96% and CP2 = 9.04%) rates. Fillet moisture contents (73.74%) and crude protein (19.05%) were higher (p < 0.01) than for entire eviscerated fish (69.71% and 17.81%, respectively). Ash (2.15%) and lipid (10.48%) rates were higher (p < 0.01) for entire fish when compared to those of fillets (1.16% and 6.52%, respectively). The slaughter of fish weighing between 300 and 370 g and their fillets are more adequate for the market.

Combinação de técnicas para tratamento cirúrgico de fratura do complexo zigomático-maxilar: relato de caso

The zygomatic-maxillary complex due to its projection framed as one of the areas hardest hit by injuries, as well as the nasal bones. Component important in this context, the zygomatic arch fracture is under the direct action of forces due to its structure fragile, resulting in loss of normal convex curvature. Therefore, it is aimed to report a clinical case of male patient, who had leucoderma zygomatic bone fracture using access transcutaneous and intra-oral fracture reduction body of zygoma and zygomatic arch. In addition to evidence combination of closed and open techniques for solving the case. The technique provided the patient excellent cosmetic and functional results.
