Morfologia radicular da dentição permanente de Sapajus apella: morfometria, anatomia macroscópica, ultraestrutura e propriedades físicas

O objetivo desse trabalho foi contribuir com o estudo anatômico, morfométrico, ultraestrutural e propriedades físicas dos dentes permanentes do primata Sapajus apella. Para tal, foram utilizados 10 animais adultos e machos. Os dentes foram avaliados quanto ao seu comprimento e quanto à anatomia radicular externa e interna considerando número de raízes e canais, forma e direção radicular e forma do canal, assim como análise da densidade e diâmetro tubular do canal radicular, composição e microdureza dentinária. A anatomia radicular desse primata apresentou especificidades, como o número de raízes do segundo pré-molar superior e a presença do terceiro pré-molar. Quanto à densidade e o diâmetro dos túbulos dentinários, observou-se uma diminuição do número e diâmetro de túbulos ao longo do canal radicular, havendo diferença estatisticamente significante ao se comparar o terço apical com as regiões cervical e média, padrão de densidade e tamanho semelhantes a dentes humanos. Semelhanças também foram encontradas com dentes humanos quando comparados os valores de microdureza e proporção de elementos químicos encontrados na dentina radicular.

Fístula infraorbitária associada à doença periodontal em cães

Veterinary Dentistry has grown considerably in recent years. This growth, associated to increase of knowledge among pet owners regarding responsible ownership of their pets, resulted in growing concern about the oral health of the animals that already can be observed at veterinary clinics. Among the oral diseases in dogs, infraorbital fistula, so called carnassial” fistula, is a periapical osteolytic lesion of the fourth premolar (4 SPM), often associated with periodontal disease. In its early stages, is characterized clinically by a swelling in the region of the jawbone before the formation of the fistula and leakage of a liquid serosanguineous or purulent secretion. Because of these clinical features, it is often misdiagnosed as a skin condition unrelated to the teeth. It is very important to obtain intraoral radiographs to confirm the diagnosis for performing the most appropriate treatment, according to the cause of the injury

Effect of platele-rich plasma on healing of class III furcation defects treated with autogenous bone grafting and guided tissue regeneration: a histomorphometric sutdy in dogs

Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) when used in combination with autogenous bone graft and bioabsorbable membrane (Resolut® ) in the treatment of Class  III furcation defects in dogs. Material and method: Class III furcation defects (5 mm in height and in depth) were surgically created in the mandibular third premolars of five mongrel dogs. After nine weeks, the lesions were treated with scaling and root planning and each defect received one of the following treatments: autogenous bone graft + membrane (group C) or PRP + autogenous bone graft + membrane (group T). After a healing period of 90 days, the animals were sacrificed. Routine histological processing and staining with hematoxilyn and eosin and Masson trichrome were performed and a histomorphometric analysis determined the effect of the treatments on periodontal tissue regereneration. Data were analyzed by Hotelling’s T-squared (p < 0.05). Result: No statistically significant difference between C and T groups was observed by the histomorphometric analysis of the furcation area. Both treatment groups demonstrated similar regenerative results with the furcation defects partially filled and periodontal regeneration limited to the experimental notches of the lesions. (p > 0.05). Conclusion: According to the present results, PRP does not enhance the periodontal regeneration in class III furcation defects treated with autogenous bone graft and bioabsorbable membrane.

Resina composta indireta como alternativa funcional e estética em reabilitações protéticas

Due to mechanical and aesthetic improvement properties, continuous fiber-reinforced composites have been developed to replace the metal framework in fixed partial dentures becoming an interesting alternative to conventional treatments. A male patient, 57 years old, attended at Fixed Partial Denture Clinic of Araraquara Dental School - UNESP, complaining about upper right first molar absence. After clinical examination, it was observed: upper right second molar with amalgam restoration and periodontal bone reduction and upper right second premolar unsatisfactory treated. Following the clinical conditions and the patient expectations, it was decided to use a fiber-reinforced composite resin to make a three-element fixed bridge. The patient showed full satisfaction with the aesthetic and functional results. The case has been followed up for 60 months.

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.

Morphologic micro–computed tomography analysis of mandibular premolars with three root canals

Introduction: This study aimed to describe the anatomy of mandibular premolars with type IX canal configuration by using micro–computed tomography. Methods: Mandibular premolars with radicular grooves (n = 105) were scanned, and 16 teeth with type IX configuration were selected. Number and location of canals, distances between anatomic landmarks, occurrence of apical delta, root canal fusion, and furcation canals, as well as 2-dimensional (area, perimeter, roundness, major and minor diameters) and 3-dimensional (volume, surface area, and structuremodel index) analysis were performed. Data were statistically compared by using analysis of variance and Kruskal-Wallis tests (a = 0.05). Results: Overall, specimens had 1 root with a main canal that divided into mesiobuccal, distobuccal, and lingual canals at the furcation level. Mean length of the teeth was 22.9 2.06 mm, and the configuration of the pulp chamber was mostly triangle-shaped. Mean distances from the furcation to the apex and cementoenamel junction were 9.14 2.07 and 5.59 2.19 mm, respectively. Apical delta, root canal fusion, and furcation canals were present in 4, 5, and 10 specimens, respectively. No statistical differences were found in the 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional analyses between root canals (P > .05). Conclusions: Type IX configuration of the root canal system was found in 16 of 105 mandibular premolars with radicular grooves. Most of the specimens had a triangle-shaped pulp chamber. Within this anatomic configuration, complexities of the root canal systems such as the presence of furcation canals, fusion of canals, oval-shaped canals in the apical third, small orifices at the pulp chamber level, and apical delta were also observed

Maxillary sinus and posterior teeth: accessing close relationship by cone-beam computed tomographic scanning in a brazilian population

Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate the close proximity established between the maxillary sinus floor and posterior teeth roots apices by using cone-beam computed tomographic scanning. Methods: The relationship of maxillary sinuses and posterior teeth roots, which were divided into 2 groups, was analyzed using i-CAT Vision software (Imaging Sciences, Hatfield, PA). Group 1 included all root apices found in close contact with the maxillary sinus floor without sinus floor elevation, whereas group 2 included all root apices that were protruded within the sinus producing an elevation of the bony cortical. Results: A total of 100 maxillary sinuses and 601 roots apices were evaluated. Group 1 presented 130 of 601 (21.6%) roots and group 2 presented 86 of 601 (14.3%) roots. Conclusions: The second molar mesiobuccal root apex is frequently found in close proximity with the sinus floor, and the relation between these anatomic structures should be considered in order to prevent an iatrogenic procedure and minimize the risks from an infectious disease within the sinus

Width of buccal and posterior corridors: differences between cases treated with asymmetric and symmetric extractions

OBJECTIVE: To verify if there is difference in the buccal and posterior corridor width in cases treated with extraction of one and four premolars. METHODS: Through posed smile photographs of 23 Class II patients, subdivision, treated with extraction of one premolar and 25 Class I and Class II patients, subdivision, treated with extraction of four premolars, the percentage of buccal and posterior corridor width was calculated. The two protocols of extractions were compared regarding the buccal and posterior corridor width by independent t tests. RESULTS: There was no statistically significant difference on the buccal and posterior corridor widths between patients treated with symmetric and asymmetric extraction. CONCLUSION: The buccal and posterior corridor did not differ between the evaluated protocols of extractions.

Displasia cementária periapical: relato de dois casos

A displasia cementária periapical (DCP) é considerada uma alteração pseudotumoral de etiologia desconhecida. Essa patologia é assintomática e tem crescimento autolimitante. Os dentes afetados apresentam normalmente vitalidade pulpar e integridade da lâmina dura. Objetivo: Apresentar dois casos clínicos que demonstram a importância do conhecimento e correto diagnóstico da DCP. Relatos clínicos: Paciente M.I.S, de 61 Anos, Gênero Feminino, Leucoderma. Apresentou-se ao setor de Endodontia, para avaliação, ao exame radiográfico foi constatada imagem radiopaca nos ápices de incisivos inferiores. Ao teste de sensibilidade ao frio houve resposta negativa, então foi realizado o teste em outras áreas da mandíbula, também com resposta negativa, tornando o teste inconclusivo. Com base nas informações obtidas pelos exames clínico e radiográfico, foi diagnosticada a DCP. Realizado controle clínico e radiográfico, não houve alterações significativas. Paciente H.N.P.N, de 22 Anos, Gênero Feminino, Leucoderma. Apresentou-se ao setor de Endodontia, para avaliação, ao exame radiográfico foi constatada imagem radiopaca na região perirradicular de canino e primeiro pré-molar inferiores do lado esquerdo. Ao teste de sensibilidade ao frio, houve resposta positiva. Com base nas informações obtidas pelos exames clínico e radiográfico, foi diagnosticada a DCP. Realizado controle clínico e radiográfico, não houve alterações significativas. Conclusão: Devido as suas características radiográficas, a DCP pode ser confundida com lesões inflamatórias de origem endodôntica. Intervenções endodônticas desnecessárias podem ocorrer por isso o cirurgião-dentista deve estar atento quanto à vitalidade pulpar e a integridade da lâmina dura dos dentes envolvidos, para o correto diagnóstico.

A repercussão periodontal e dentária decorrente da expansão rápida da maxila assistida cirurgicamente: estudo em modelos digitais

A expansão rápida da maxila assistida cirurgicamente (ERMAC) é um dos procedimentos de escolha para correção da deficiência transversal em pacientes adultos. Este estudo avaliou as alterações produzidas nos arcos dentais superiores e inferiores de 18 pacientes, sendo seis do sexo masculino e 12 do sexo feminino, com média de idade de 23,3 anos submetidos à ERMAC. Para cada paciente foram preparados três modelos de gesso, que foram digitalizados por meio do Scanner 3D, obtidos em diferentes fases: inicial, antes do procedimento operatório (T1); três meses pós-expansão (T2); seis meses pós-expansão (T3). Foram avaliadas as distâncias transversais do arcos dentários superior e inferior, a inclinação dentária dos dentes posteriores superiores, a altura da coroa clínica dos dentes posteriores do arco superior e foi observado se havia correlação entre a quantidade de inclinação dentária com o desenvolvimento de recessões gengivais. Para análise dos resultados foram utilizados a análise de Variância, o Teste de Tukey e o Teste de Correlação de Pearson, sendo que para a análise do erro sistemático intra-examinador foi utilizado o teste t pareado e para determinação do erro casual utilizou-se o cálculo do erro de Dahlberg. Com base na metodologia utilizada e nos resultados obtidos, pode-se concluir que: 1. com relação as alterações produzidas no sentido transversal do arco superior, obteve-se um aumento em todas as variáveis de T1 para T2 e uma manutenção dos valores em todas as variáveis de T2 para T3 demonstrando efetividade e estabilidade do procedimento; 2. no arco inferior não houve alterações transversais estatisticamente significantes, com exceção dos primeiros molares; 3. com relação às inclinações dentárias, observou-se um aumento desta de T1 para T2 em todos os dentes, porém, com significância estatística apenas para segundo molar e primeiro e segundo pré-molar do lado direito e primeiro molar e segundo pré-molar do lado esquerdo.; 4. a ERMAC não acarretou o desenvolvimento de recessões gengivais em nenhum dos tempos; 5. não houve correlação entre a quantidade de inclinação dentária e o desenvolvimento de recessões gengivais.(AU)
