Prótese total imediata: relato de caso clínico

The immediate complete denture is defined as a removable or partial denture made to be installed immediately after the extraction of the natural teeth. This type of prosthesis can be used for a short period of time, for aesthetic reasons, mastication, occlusal support, convenience or for the adaptation of the patients to the edentulous state, until the final prosthesis is installed. The objective of this study was to report a surgical and prosthetic rehabilitation planning of a patient by means of an immediate complete maxillary denture, and the results obtained with this treatment modality. The immediate complete denture is a necessary, well-established, useful and effective prosthetic procedure for patients who, inevitably, will present an edentulous state, despite it is a slightly more expensive and it requires more sessions for adjust

Prótese total fixa na maxila: soluções protéticas

The modalities of treatment with prostheses over implants for total edentulous patients can be divided in fixed and removable prostheses (overdentures). The fixed prostheses modality has proven to offer better results as to the functional aspects and, results in higher longevity. Overdentures are considered as a modality of rehabilitation utilized to compensate the need for better retention, aside from augmenting chewing efficiency. Its use is justified by its facilitated hygiene, reduced surgical and prosthetic costs, reestablishment of labial support and elimination of the possibility of air escape. However, this option presents psychosocial downside, since the fact that it is considered a removable rehabilitation modality does not please the majority of patients. Although many patients prefer a fixed implant-supported prosthesis to a removable overdenture, frequently it is necessary to utilize an implant retained overdenture as an alternative to the treatment, due to anatomical, physiological, aesthetic, hygienic, and financial limitations regarding the patient. The objective of this study was to discuss a clinical case of a partially edentulous patient treated in the Implantodontic Surgery Post-Graduation Course from the Kenedy Dentistry Institute Mozarteum/Famosp Unit – Goiânia-Brazil), and submitted to osseointegrated implants surgical fixation techniques. A modality of differential diagnosis was established after osseointegration period, it aimed at facilitating the choice of a rehabilitation model that could favor the patient’s and professional`s expectations. Therefore the appreciated aspects were function, comfort, aesthetics, and especially the patient satisfaction.

Parafunção severa: reabilitação oral com prótese total mandibular x overlay maxilar: relato de caso

In many oral rehabilitation professionals seeking venture renew people smile. However, these procedures have functional implications and aesthetic criteria which must be satisfied so that the final result is predictable. The restoration of relations intermaxillary, phonetics, masticatory function, esthetics and patient comfort are the goals to be achieved. An effective way to achieve these goals when immediate reconstruction with permanent dentures is not possible, make use of a type of partial denture called overlay. Bruxism is a manifestation of biopsychological imbalance that affects the stomatognathic system, characterized by clenching and / or attrition of teeth together so centric or eccentric, can be manifestation of nocturnal or diurnal. Its effects can manifest themselves in different parts of the stomatognathic system, varying the severity of the damage as the resistance of the structures affected, the time of existence, its regularity and the general state of the wearer. The description of the steps followed in solving this case, in which the patient edentulous mandibular arch while the maxillary arch showed absence of teeth 16 and 26 and, except for the teeth 17 and 27, all other teeth showed wear very sharp in the sense denoting incisal cervical, severe impairment of the vertical dimension, the quality of masticatory function and a marked impairment phonetic, this case report aims to guide the beginning of a rehabilitation, as well as the transitional phase of treatment for recovery of functional and aesthetic relationships intermaxillary .

The impact of oral health in individuals quality of life was evaluated through the Brazilian version of the OHIP-Edent and the patient satisfaction was evaluated using a specific questionnaire. The instruments were applied before and 3 months after rehabilitation. Results: There was a statistically significant improvement (p <0.001) on the impact of the quality of life of the denture users after the new rehabilitation. The analysis of 4 OHIP domains also showed statistically significant improvement (p <0.001). The final overall satisfaction with the dentures was statistically superior to initial satisfaction (p <0.001). The analysis of the specific aspects of satisfaction with CCD after 3 months of rehabilitation also showed significant results in the improvement of every aspect. Conclusion: Patients disappointed with their dentures, have their quality of life improved after the new rehabilitation, reducing the negative impact of the prostheses on oral health, and improving their satisfaction with the rehabilitation.

Um olhar crítico sobre a individualização da curva de compensação em prótese total

Objetivo: Buscar na literatura evidências científicas que suportem os benefícios da individualização da curva de compensação em prótese total, pela técnica do desgaste de Paterson, em relação à curva de compensação não individualizada. Metodologia: Realizou-se, em Dezembro de 2009, uma revisão sistemática da literatura nas bases de dados MEDLINE, LILACS e BBO com os termos “prótese total” e “oclusão”. Para abranger uma maior quantidade de dados, realizou-se uma busca manual através das referências dos artigos inicialmente selecionados. Resultados: Obteve-se 1273 referências na base dados MEDLINE, 64 na LILACS e 103 na BBO, num total de 1440 referências. Dessas, apenas 24 tratavam do assunto “curva de compensação”, as quais somaram-se mais 13 artigos selecionados manualmente. Conclusão: A partir dos resultados obtidos, conclui-se que não existem dados suficientes que comprovem clinicamente os benefícios da individualização da curva de compensação em relação às próteses totais com curva de compensação não individualizada. Ensaios clínicos controlados e randomizados são necessários para que se possa determinar qual o procedimento mais adequado.

Apesar de manter as suas indicações no tratamento da rizartrose a artrodese trapézio-metacarpiana está associada a perda de mobilidade e transferência de cargas para as articulações vizinhas. O objectivo do trabalho é apresentar os resultados de 3 doentes que por apresentarem artrodese TMC com resultado funcional insatisfatório foram submetidos a desartrodese e artroplastia trapezio-metacarpiana com implante tipo “ball-and-socket”. Realizada avaliação clínica e radiológica dos 3 doentes com follow-up médio de 18 meses. Observou-se diminuição franca da sintomatologia dolorosa e melhoria nas actividades de vida diária avaliadas, assim como um ganho de mobilidades e de força do polegar operado e um retorno precoce as actividades de vida diária e laborais. A realização de artroplastia total trapézio-metacarpiana como cirurgia de revisão de artrodese desta articulação constitui uma opção de tratamento válida e eficaz com bons resultados funcionais. A correcta selecção dos pacientes candidatos a este procedimento é um passo fulcral na obtenção destes resultados.
