Aspectos relacionados a procedimentos restauradores em odontopediatria

O objetivo deste texto foi realizar uma revisão crítica de trabalhos realizados após o doutoramento do autor, de parte de uma linha de pesquisa focalizada na dentística em odontopediatria. Desta forma, foram revisados artigos referentes a alguns procedimentos realizados na prática da odontologia restauradora, envolvendo estudos de microinfiltração, onde foi avaliada a influência de técnicas e materiais restauradores sobre este fenômeno. Outros trabalhos revisados relacionaram-se ao uso do microscópio eletrônico de varredura. Neste caso, foram descritos estudos que avaliaram aspectos micromorfológicos das estruturas dentárias (esmalte e dentina) de dentes permanentes, mas principalmente decíduos. Foram observados os efeitos de diferentes tratamentos realizados sobre as estruturas dentárias, como a ação de agentes condicionadores e métodos de desgaste das estruturas dentárias (laser, abrasão a ar, instrumentos cortantes rotatórios e ponta CVD). Também foram apresentados os trabalhos que avaliaram a interface adesiva, após diferentes tratamentos da dentina. Finalmente foram realizados comentários sobre os trabalhos revisados e apresentadas as tendências futuras desta linha de pesquisa.

Prevalência do uso de chupeta e conhecimento dos educadores numa escola de educação infantil: estudo piloto

Pacifier use is very common among children, but despite being considered a harmless article, there is ample evidence of their misdeeds. Therefore, concern about its use is great for us who work in the promotion of breastfeeding. It is this delicate subject in schools because the child, in most cases, already goes to school with the habit installed. The pacifier use may interfere with speech aspect, because the child can come to the wrong talk, dental, dental occlusions, may cause bacterial contamination and encourage early weaning. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of pacifier use among children of pre - school and knowledge of educators about the role of pacifier and its consequences. The research methodology was based on a questionnaire to teachers, monitors and direction and determine the prevalence of pacifier use with parents. According to the result, we developed an orientation for school. The results show that of the 57 children at the age of 4 months to 3 years, 50.88% used a pacifier, 92.98% and 96.49% used the bottle were breastfed. The guidance given after the data collection has clarified many questions for educators. We conclude that the methodology was effective because we can collect data addressing quantitative and qualitative questions and managed to get percentages on pacifier use and breastfeeding and student opinions, comments and more relevant phrases that emerged from parents and educators, complementing the result. Furthermore, through the data, it was possible to do an intervention. The results indicate that half of the children between 4 months and 3 years investigated makes use of a pacifier, so despite the advice given, it would be important to follow up these data over the next few years. We also conclude that a partnership is needed between parents and the school, because if the family does not help, you can not work in school guidance

Diagnóstico e tratamento precoce da Classe III: relato de um caso clínico

In malocclusion studies, may happen not only dental discrepancies but even skeletal discrepancies. In Class III malocclusion can be observed underdeveloped maxilla, mandible protraction or both of them, and, in most of the times associated with a narrow maxilla that causes anterior or posterior crossbites, in one side or in two sides. The aim of this case report is to evaluate the facial profile and occlusal effects of interceptive orthodontics therapy. The treatment with upper arch expansion and maxilla protraction was done in an early age to be effective in the circummaxillary sutural system and to make the orthopedic effect easier. The facial mask used is positioned on two facial points and allows an anterior maxillary replacement. Patients’ compliance is important to reach treatment success, this because using the mask still in this growth and development phase is essential to make the facial and occlusal effects happen. It is important to mention that patients with Angle Class III malocclusion need to be followed till the end of their growth.

Considerações sobre o uso do piercing lingual

Objective: Investigated the consequences of tongue piercing in individuals from the city of Araraquara, São Paulo, Brazil. Methods: In Araraquara there are five piercing shops, but only two agreed to help the research by providing the contact information of customers who had had their tongues pierced. These customers were contacted by telephone. By the end of the research, the sample consisted of 100 individuals from both genders aged 18 years or more. Not all of them still had their tongue piercing. A form with six objective questions was used to collect information. The information was then analyzed by descriptive statistics. Results: From the 100 participants, 77 had been using tongue piercing for more than 6 months. It took less than 4 months for the tongue to heal. Sixty–eight individuals used oral rinses and of these, 19 also used painkillers. Only 11 individuals did not present symptoms after the first weeks using the piercing. On the other hand, 56 individuals reported complications such as increased salivation, speaking difficulties, gingival or mucosal traumas, dental fractures and eating difficulties. Conclusion: All these tongue-piercing complications justify efforts to inform the youth about the use of piercing in the oral cavity.
