Destruction of bone and periodontal ligament as a result of periodontal disease can lead to anatomical defects in the furcation area. Treatment of these lesions is a major challenge to the clinician. Periodontal instruments have limited access to this area and plaque and calculus removal from root surfaces are extremely difficult. For proper treatment planning a number of factors must be taken into consideration to achieve immediate and long term success. Surgical therapy associated with bone grafts may be a viable option in the treatment of class II furcation defects, aiming to restore lost tissues. The aim of this paper is to report a clinical case where a simplified surgical approach with the use of autogenous graft was used to treat a class II furcation defect Twelve months after the surgery, an increase in clinical attachment level and pocket depth reduction resulted in a complete closure of the furcation lesion.

Periodontitis is an infectious disease characterized by the secretion of a variety of inflammatory mediators that lead to destruction of tooth supporting tissues, including the possible loss of alveolar bone, in association with infection with multiple species of bacteria. It is estimated that more than 400 species colonize the biofilm and some oral species related to periodontal disease is present in the subgingival including P. gingivalis, T. forsythia and T. denticola. However, other organisms may be related of this disease, as Filifactor allocis and Prevotella tannerae. These microorganisms and subproducts such as endotoxins released into the extracellular lead to the stimulation of metalloproteinase inducer glycoprotein (EMMPRIN, CD-147), which stimulates the release of MMPs by host cells, like fibroblasts and endothelial cells, thus leading to tissue destruction. The objective of this study was to detect F. allocis, P. tannerae, T. denticola and the glycoprotein EMMPRIN (CD-147) and its correlation with MMP-2 and MMP-9 in subgingival fluid samples of patients with chronic periodontitis. Fluids were collected from healthy and disease subgingival sites of 20 healthy individuals before basic periodontal treatment and after of 60 days of treatment. Their DNAs were extracted and portions of the 16S gene were amplified and performed conventional PCR. For immunological analysis and quantification of EMMPRIN (CD-147), MMP-2 and MMP-9 was used ELISA-Sandwich. Results demonstrated that the disease group showed significantly high amounts of T. denticola, F. alocis and P. tannerae when compared with health sites. MMP-2 and MMP-9 were detected in high concentrations with statistically significantly reduction after periodontal treatment to MMP-2, but without correlation with EMMPRIN.

To appraise the oral health knowledge of parents and children from the quilombola communities located in the Ribeira Valley, Sao Paulo. Methods Preventive and educational activities in oral health were developed with children in the communities (Andre Lopes, Ivaporunduva, Pedro Cubas and Sapatu) including lectures, guidance on tooth brushing techniques, supervised mass brushing, detection of tooth biofilm and topical application of fluoride. Parents also participated in the activities. They were evaluated on the oral health of their children by means of a standard questionnaire. The water supply of the communities was also analyzed. Results The children participated enthusiastically and responsively in the preventive and educational activities. As to the questionnaires, 56% of parents stated that their children’s oral health was poor and 47.2% of them usually follow up on their children’s oral hygiene until they are approximately six years old, but this follow-up is not frequent. Conclusion We conclude that quilombola parents and children have very little knowledge about oral health. Therefore increased attention to oral health is required in these communities by means of frequent oral health education and promotion.

A resistência do biofilme endodôntico pode requerer um período maior de permanência da medicação intracanal a fim de prolongar sua ação antimicrobiana. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a ação antimicrobiana residual das medicações intracanal: G1) hidróxido de cálcio + soro; G2) Calen; G3) Calen + PMCC; G4) Calen + clorexidina 0,4% e G5) clorexidina gel 2% frente à Enterococcus faecalis, Candida albicans, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus e Kocuria rhizophila em 60 canais radiculares bovinos. Os canais radiculares foram instrumentados e preenchidos com as medicações intracanal, as quais foram removidas após os períodos experimentais (15, 30, 60 e 90 dias) e empregadas na técnica de difusão em ágar. Os halos de inibição foram evidenciados por gel de TTC e então mensurados. Os dados de halos de inibição foram submetidos à análise estatística dos testes Kruskall-Wallis e Dunn, com nível de significância de 5%. O Ca(OH)2 + soro apresentou efeito até o período de 15 dias. A pasta Calen demonstrou efeito residual aos 60 dias frente ao S. aureus, enquanto Calen/PMCC até o período de 90 dias frente à S. aureus e K. rhizophila e aos 30 dias para E. faecalis. A pasta Calen associado à clorexidina foi efetiva frente à E. faecalis até o período de 60 dias. A clorexidina gel 2% apresentou ação residual em todos os períodos, com exceção de E. faecalis aos 90 dias, também apresentou atividade antimicrobiana mais prolongada, seguido das associações do hidróxido de cálcio com clorexidina e PMCC.
