Five-year clinical performance of the dentine Deproteinization Technique in non-carious cervical lesions

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the 5-year clinical performance of composite restorations of non-carious cervical lesions (NCCL) using a total-etch adhesive system with or without collagen removal with 10% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl).Methods: In this study randomized controlled split-mouth clinical trial, one-hundred and thirty-eight NCCL were restored into 30 patients. Each patient received at least one pair of composite restorations (Filtek A110/3M ESPE), bonded either with 2 techniques: Conventional Technique - acid etching with 37% phosphoric acid + Prime & Bond NT (Denstply DeTrey); Deproteinization Technique - acid etching with 37% phosphoric acid + 10% NaOCl for 1 min + Prime & Bond NT. The two techniques were evaluated using the United States Public Health Service (USPHS) criteria at baseline, 18 months, 3 and 5 years. After five years, one-hundred and six restorations were evaluated in 24 patients. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test (p < 0.05).Results: There were no statistically significant differences between the two techniques regarding the evaluated parameters (p > 0.05).Conclusion: After 5 years, the application of 10% NaOCl deproteinization on etched dentine did not affect the clinical performance of composite restorations placed in NCCL when compared to the conventional total-etch technique.Clinical significance: Clinical studies evaluating the performance of the Deproteinization Technique are scarce. In this study, this technique showed similar clinical performance at the end of 5 years when compared to a conventional total-etch technique. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The Effects of Weathering Exposure on the Physical, Mechanical, and Thermal Properties of High-density Polyethylene and Poly (Vinyl Chloride)

This paper presents results describing the physical, mechanical, and thermal properties (melt flow index - MFI and oxidative induction time - OIT) of high density polyethylene and poly (vinyl chloride) after weathering exposure (6, 12, 18, and 30 months). The materials exposed were geomembranes of two thicknesses: 1.0 and 2.0 mm (PVC) and 0.8 and 2.5 mm (HDPE). The climate parameters (average) obtained were 25 degrees C (temperature), 93 mm (precipitation), 66% (relative humidity), and 19 MJ/m(2). day (intensity of global radiation). Some results showed, for instance, that the behavior of the geomembranes changed after the exposures. A few minor variations in physical properties occurred. The density and thickness, for instance, varied 0.5-1.0% (average) for both the PVC and HDPE geomembranes. The mechanical properties changed as a function of the period of exposure. In general, some decreases were verified by the deformation of PVC. The samples became more rigid. In contrast, HDPE geomembranes became more ductile. Despite the variations in elasticity, some increases in deformability were verified. An MFI test showed some degradation in HDPE geomembranes. OIT tests revealed small values for both intact and exposed samples.

Envolvimento dos recptores purinérgicos do núcleo parabraquial lateral no controle respiratório

O núcleo parabraquial lateral (NPBL) e o núcleo Kölliker-Fuse (KF) são os mais importantes núcleos da ponte envolvidos com o controle da ventilação pulmonar (VE) e são conhecidos como grupo respiratório pontino ou centro pneumotáxico. Vários experimentos demonstraram que a estimulação ou a lesão do NPBL-KF produziram alterações nos padrões respiratórios. No entanto, ainda não estava claro qual seria a área exata (no complexo NPBL-KF) e o neurotransmissor envolvido nas alterações respiratórias. Estudos com imunohistoquímica demonstraram a presença de receptores purinérgicos (especialmente os P2X) em várias áreas envolvidas com o controle da ventilação, incluindo o NPBL. Estudos também demonstraram a presença de um denso plexo de varicosidades imunorreativas para o GABA ao longo do complexo NPB-KF, sendo que o processamento neural nessa região estaria sob forte inibição gabaérgica. No entanto, o papel dos receptores purinérgicos e gabaérgicos do NPBL na regulação da VE em ratos não anestesiados ainda não tinha sido investigado. Desta forma, no presente estudo investigamos as respostas ventilatórias após a injeção do α,β-metil-ATP (agonista purinérgico), do PPADS (antagonista purinérgico) e do muscimol (agonista GABA-A) no NPBL de ratos não anestesiados. Foram utilizados ratos com cânulas de aço inoxidável bilateralmente no NPBL, os animais foram submetidos a pletismografia de corpo inteiro para que fossem obtidas as medidas de VE. As injeções bilaterais do agonista purinérgico, α,β-metil-ATP (2 nmol/0,2 μl, n=8), no NPBL promoveu queda na freqüência respiratória (fR) (108  5 ciclos/min vs basal 137  6 ciclos/min, p = 0,005), não alterou o volume corrente (VT) (2  0,3 ml/kg vs basal 2  0,3 ml/kg, p = 0,967) e queda na VE (263  42 ml.kg-1.min-1 vs basal 325  43 ml.kg-1.min-1, p = 0,001)...

Residues of different gel formulations on dentinal walls: a SEM/EDS analysis

The aim of this study was to evaluate the presence of residues of sodium hypo-chlorite gel, chlorhexidine gel, and EDTA gel on dentina l walls after canal preparat ion throughchemical SEM- elemental chemical microanal ys is (EDS) analysis. Forty-eight single-rootedteeth were selected. They had their crowns sectioned and were instrumented with a reciprocat-ing system. The canals were irrigated with 5 mL of saline solution during root canal preparation.After instrumentation, the root canals were irrigated with 3 mL 17% EDTA followed by 1 min ofultrasonic passive activation (33 20 sec) to remove the smear layer, and then irrigated with3 mL of saline solution. The specimens were randomized into three groups (n 5 12) accord ing tothe chemical substance that filled the root canal for 30 min: GI: 5.5% sodium hypochlorite gel;GII: 2% chlorhexidine gel; GIII: 24% EDTA gel; Negative c ontrol group: no substance was used.Then, the root canals were irrigated with 6 mL of saline solution followed by 1 min of ultrasonicpassive activation (33 20 sec). After ultrasonic activation , the canals were irrigated with 2 mLsaline. The roots were sect ioned, and the perce ntage of each chemical element present in thesamples was analyzed through chemi cal SEM-EDS microanalysis. All expe rimental groupsshowed a significantly higher percentage of chemical elements (Na and/or Cl) than the controlgroup (P < 0.03). This in vitro study has shown that, regardless of chemical solutions used evenafter the final irrigation protocol, chemical residues of d ifferent substances remained attached tothe r oot c anal wa lls.
