Os Pinguins-de-Magalhães (Spheniscus magellanicus) (Forster, 1781) são aves marinhas que se reproduzem em grandes colônias nas costas da Argentina, do Chile e nas Ilhas Malvinas. Quando animais desta espécie são mantidos em cativeiro, é frequente que deixem de exibir comportamentos típicos da espécie, tornando-se sedentários e apresentando baixo índice de reprodução. Nestas condições, por passarem muito tempo fora da água sustentando todo o peso do corpo sobre as patas apoiadas em piso firme, os pinguins podem desenvolver lesões nas patas denominadas pododermatites. Tendo em vista que o padrão temporal do comportamento é alterado por estressores e que o acompanhamento deste padrão pode contribuir para a determinação do bem estar animal, avaliamos neste estudo o padrão de atividade e de uso do recinto de três fêmeas e três machos residentes no Sabina Escola Parque do Conhecimento (Santo André, SP). Os animais foram observados por 2 a 3 dias em quatro períodos: janeiro, março, maio e julho de 2014. Foram realizadas seis varreduras sucessivas a cada 7 minutos nos seguintes intervalos de horários: 8h-8h50, 9h25-10h15, 10h50-11h40, 12h20-13h10, 13h40- 14h30 e 15h05-15h55. Em cada varredura foi registrado o estado comportamental (repouso, atividade ou não visível) e a área do recinto em que cada animal se encontrava (em quadrantes). Verificamos que os animais eram ativos na maior parte das observações visíveis: 73,4% das varreduras obtidas em janeiro, 65,8% em março, 89,0% em maio e 86,3% em julho. O coeficiente de atividade foi diferente entre os intervalos de horário: teste de Friedman em janeiro (Fr(3)=20,5; p=0,001), março (Fr(3)=19,9; p=0,001), maio (Fr(3)=15,4; p=0,01) e julho (Fr(3)=17,1; p=0,005); sendo que nos primeiros intervalos da manhã os animais eram mais ativos do que à tarde (post-hoc p<0,01). O uso da região frontal do recinto era maior pela manhã, momento sem visitação pública, nos meses de...

Background: The principles of tissue regeneration to repair alveolar bone defects are based on the fabrication of a biologic barrier with different biomaterials. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the guided bone regeneration (GBR) by using membrane of demineralized bovine bone matrix (DBBM) on experimental defects in tibia of dogs. Methods: Four dogs were used and after anesthesia, shaving and antisepsis, two standardized bone defects were created on the right tibia of each animal with trephine drill. In the Control Group, the defects were filled with blood coagulum, while in the Treated Group, a membrane of DBBM was used to cover the defects. After 90 days, animals were sacrificed. Results: In the Treated Group, 67.4% of new bone formation was observed and, in the Control Group, 32.6% of the bone tissue reabsorbed when compared with initial bone volume. The membrane remained intact and no inflammatory tissue was observed on membrane/ bone interface. Conclusion: It was concluded that the use of DBBM is an osteoconductive material, presents biocompatibility and may be promise option to repair bone defects.

A técnica milenar da Acupuntura vem sendo empregada na Odontologia e obtendo bons resultados em diversas situações. Analgesia, relaxamento muscular e inflamação vêm sendo controlados, demonstrando assim conexão entre Acupuntura e redução de certas sintomatologias. As reações locais e à distância necessitam de correto posicionamento das agulhas assim como integridade do sistema nervoso, e são decorrentes da liberação de neurotransmissores (noradrenalina, acetilcolina, serotoninas e dopamina). Dentro da Odontologia, podemos nos utilizar dos seus efeitos no pré e pós operatório, em xerostomia, cefaléias, trismos, disfunção de ATM por estresse, parestesias, paresias, ansiedade, entre outras condições. Nos casos de disfunção de Articulação Temporomandibular por hiperatividade muscular, podemos utilizar a Acupuntura ao invés de relaxante muscular e antiinflamatório. Nesse trabalho, apresentaremos um caso clínico (paciente MCH, 23 anos, gênero feminino), a qual apresentava crises de dor de cabeça (região temporal), fazendo uso constante de medicação analgésica e antiinflamatória, o diagnóstico estabelecido foi Dor Muscular Local associado à hiperatividade muscular. Através do uso da Acupuntura, após aplicações semanais por 3 meses, houve remissão da dor por completo.

Tooth bleaching is the most common treatment and more conservative to get a smile with white teeth. However, the tooth sensitivity has been a major adverse effects caused by this treatment, which raises questions about the effect of bleaching the pulp. Therefore, we performed a literature review in order to study the relationship between bleaching agents and their possible effects on the dental pulp. We review various articles showing that the peroxide compound used to whiten teeth, penetrates through enamel and dentin until the pulp chamber causing changes of variable intensity or induce pulp necrosis. Moreover, we found that the higher the concentration of peroxide in the bleaching agent, and the greater the contact time with this dental structure, the greater the damage caused in the pulp. Although several studies show that the bleaching agent hydrogen peroxide-based pulp can make changes, there are still many gaps to be filled.

This study evaluated the oral conditions of 50 cancer patients undergoing head and neck radiotherapy (RT). Clinical examinations were performed before treatment, immediately after 30 days after RT and 6 months after conclusion of RT. Periodontal conditions were evaluated using the criteria of the Periodontal Screening and Recording (SRP) and the need for dental treatment were determined. The presence of xerostomia, mucositis and other side effects of RT were also evaluated. Soon after the beginning of RT, the irradiated patients of radiotherapy developed severe mucositis, dermatitis, dysgeusia, xerostomia and, to a lesser extent, candidosis. After completion of radiotherapy, 68% of patients had level III or IV mucositis. It was found that the development of mucositis hinders oral hygiene and these factors contribute to exacerbate inflammation of periodontal tissues. The data from this study evidenced that the main cause of desertion of RT and of severity of sequelae of RT depends on the oral conditions of patients before starting treatment and the absence of previous dental treatment prior RT.

Drug addiction is one of the biggest public health problems worldwide, not only by the dimensions of the problem, but also by the severity of the damage, creating favorable conditions for opportunistic microorganisms such as class Mollicutes. This study aims to evaluate the presence of the main species and genera of this group in the subgingival biofilm of drug addiction patients, comparing them with non-dependent subjects. For this purpose, data on systemic health conditions, socioeconomic characteristics, drug addiction from 72 patients with drug addiction kept in rehab clinics and 100 non-dependent patients who formed the control group were obtained. Intra and extraoral clinical examinations were performed and samples of subgingival plaque were collected through sterile absorbent paper cones. The presence of different genera and species of the class Mollicutes was evaluated by PCR using the specific primers and conditions for each microorganism. The statistical analysis was performed using the Chi-square test for comparisons of three or more variables and the Mann-Whitney test, with significance level of 5%. Out of species and genera evaluated, Mycoplasma salivarium showed correlation with gingival inflammation in both patient groups and was more frequently detected among drug addiction patients

The association of Helicobacter pylori with different gastric diseases has been continuously discussed in the literature, whereas the last 20 years a large body of publications was intended to characterize the ecological niches and habitats of this pathogen being the mouth a possible habitat for that rod. The present study aimed to discuss the occurrence of this organism as part of the supplemental or transient microbiota of the mouth. Thus, an extensive review of literature covering the period 1990-2014 was carried out with different databases, yielding 5024 articles discussing transmission and occurrence of H. pylori, in English or Portuguese. Articles were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria and data were tabulated and analyzed. Despite the significant heterogeneity of the literature, it was found this microaerophilic has a worldwide distribution, even in the mouth, which behaves as a reservoir for gastric reinfection. The role of oral hygiene and periodontal disease in the distribution of this microorganism remains unclear, but most studies support the hypothesis that oral biofilms and inflammation of periodontium may facilitate the installation of this pathogen in the mouth. Studies suggest that this microorganism could collaborate as a predisposing factor for oral cancer.
