Recuperação da dimensão vertical em pacientes com parafunção severa

The association between emotional stress and intense bruxism has as consequence the Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD), which is an increasingly apparent problem at the dental clinic, requiring judicious means of diagnosis and especially treatment.. Several factors, of equivalent importance, may be related to the DTM, one of them is the loss of vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO), and parafunctional habits and also the loss of stable contacts between the posterior teeth or lack thereof, which generates an increase functional anterior teeth for excessive wear or buccal and consequent.. This paper proposes using a clinical case, to present and discuss the steps for clinical diagnosis, planning and execution of oral rehabilitation with Fixed Partial Denture for restoring vertical dimension of occlusion in a patient with severe parafunction.. Oral rehabilitation of these patients should be carefully planned, respecting the functional and aesthetic aspects.. The parafunction control by monitoring the Temporomandibular Disorder is essential to the longitudinal prediction of rehabilitation performed in these types of rehabilitative treatment.

Planejamento em reabilitação oral: restabelecimento da relação intermaxilar por meio de prótese provisória overlay

The present article describes the treatment planning and fabrication of overlay denture to restore the jaw relationship in a partial edentulous patient with bruxism. A male patient, 51 years old, was referred to the oral rehabilitation clinic complaining about the chewing and aesthetic. The occlusal surface of the superior teeth presented severe wear. The fabrication of an interim overlay denture to restore the jaw relationship was planned. The overlay had metallic projections and covered the occlusal surface of superior teeth. After overlay insertion both function and aesthetic of the patient were recovered. It was concluded that the use of overlay improved the physiological normal position of the jaw and could provide a favorable prognosis for a definitive oral rehabilitation with implant-supported fixed denture.

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 .

Association between bruxism, alcohol and tobaco use among brazilian students

The etiology of bruxism is not well defined. Different factors affecting the central nervous system are considered as risk factors for bruxism. Dental students are not immune to the bruxism, alcohol consumption and tobacco use, despite their training, knowledge of its effects and social responsibility. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between bruxism, alcohol consumption and tobacco use among Brazilian dental students. Participants were chosen among 180, 17-29 year-old students at the UNESP’s Dentistry School – Araçatuba Campus. They were divided into those with and without bruxism on the basis at validated clinical criteria. The clinical examinations were carried out by four standardized examiners (Intraexaminer and Interexaminer Unweighted kappa= 0.82, Weighted kappa= 0.89, respectively), in the clinic, with daylight and a tongue depressor. Bruxism was registered with the following categories: no wear facets, wear facets in enamel, dentine wear facets, facets wear half of the crown and wear facets more than 2/3 of the tooth crown. A self report validated questionnaire for alcohol consumption and tobacco use with 29 questions was completed by both groups. Fischer exact test and T-test were used and Odds Ratio and Confidence Interval was estimated. Bruxism was more frequent among cigarette smokers both in men (68.4%) and in women (56.8%). Among all respondents in this group, 82.6% reported that they would like to quit smoking and those who have tried previously to quit (76.4%) found it made them more stressed. Drinker was more frequent in the group with bruxism also (66.5% of the female and 73.5% of the male). 88.4% reported drinking alcohol because it “allows dealing with stress in an adequate way”. Results suggest a positive association between bruxism and alcohol consumption and tobacco use.

Introduction: As a new alternative in the complementary treatment lasers teem different systems were employed in the decontamination of dental surfaces implants however, some systems have caused significant changes in its surface. Purpose: Analyze by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) the effects of laser irradiation of Er,Cr: YSGG on different surfaces of titanium. Material and method: Study of 20 titanium discs, and 10 Machined Surface (MS) and 10 surfaces treated with acid (AC). The 10 discs with the same treatment were divided into two groups with five units each, the irradiation was performed in powers of 1 W and 2 W. Result: Showed that the irradiation with 1 W of power resulted in no significant morphological changes in the MS-irradiated compared to non-irradiated surfaces. In MS surfaces, minor changes were observed in the increase of 1000× when compared to non-irradiated surface. With 2 W of power, there were no significant morphological changes in the MS, compared to non-irradiated areas. In AC some changes were observed in the increase of X 1000, showing areas of wear suggestive of treatment and some areas with melting point. Conclusion: Considering the results and the parameters used in this study it was concluded that the Er, Cr: YSGG irradiation can be used for the machined surfaces of implants, but in acid-treated surfaces irradiation parameters should be more controlled.

Minimização do impacto ambiental com a técnica da retificação cilíndrica externa de mergulho de cerâmicas avançadas com a utilização da mínima quantidade de lubrificante (MQL) com adição água

Os fluidos de corte foram introduzidos nos processos de usinagem com a finalidade de melhorar as características de os processos tribológicos que estão sempre presentes nas superfícies de contato entre a ferramenta e a peça. Devido à multiplicidade de efeitos negativos do corte os fluidos, os resíduos produzem sobre a humanidade e o nosso meio ambiente, na produção moderna, tem havido uma crescente atenção com os cuidados para se selecionar os fluidos de forma eficiente que, além de eficiente deve ser compatível com o ambiente. Além dos requisitos habituais tribológicos de corte, os fluidos devem satisfazer as exigências do ambiente e atender a legislação ambiental imposta pelo Estado ou internacional ISO 14000. Dentre as alternativas, destaca-se a usinagem a seco e a utilização da mínima quantidade de lubrificação (MQL). Este último pode ser utilizado também com adição de água e, consequentemente, consumindo um volume menor de fluido de corte. Este trabalho pretende analisar o comportamento da técnica da MQL com adição de água no processo de retificação de cerâmicas avançadas, assunto pouco divulgado na literatura formal. Este estudo foi feito através da análise da avaliação do comportamento rugosidade do material retificado. Pela avaliação dos resultados obtidos, foi possível avaliar a técnica da MQL com água, interpretando-a como um método alternativo de usinagem menos agressivo ao meio ambiente, já que houve melhoria consistente da rugosidade do material pela técnica da MQL tradicional para a MQL com adição de água e com a limpeza da superfície de corte do rebolo.

Dressagem monitorada por emissão acústica e potência de corte

Para a realização deste experimento, foram utilizados um rebolo de óxido de alumínio instalado em uma retificadora plana, um dispositivo em forma de balança juntamente com o sensor de deslocamento, um sistema de aquisição de sinais e um dressador de ponta única de diamante. O processamento digital dos dados foi obtido com o software Matlab. Nos ensaios, foram aplicados diferentes graus de recobrimento e profundidade de dressagem e comparada a agressividade obtida. A partir dos dados resultantes, os parâmetros RMS, DPO e DPKS mostraram-se bons indicadores para a operação. Também ficou comprovado que para recondicionar e definir novas características para o rebolo é necessária a remoção de 120 um. Do estudo do espectro do dinal de EA, notou-se que não há componentes hormônicas com frequência superior a 200 KHz.

Proposta de equipamento de baixo custo para detectar danos térmicos

Baseado em um controlador digital de sinais, o sistema de monitoramento e detecção da queima em tempo real proposto neste estudo realiza a aquisição das sinais RMS de emissão acústica e da potência ativa do motor de acionamento do rebolo. Essas ações são necessárias para realizar o cálculo de estatísticas que foram utilizadas em trabalhos científicos e mostraram-se eficientes na detecção da queima em processos de retiticação. Dessa forma, é possível atuar sobre a retificadora, interrompendo seu funcionamento ou realizando correções nas variáveis do processo.

Comparação de três métodos na retificação cilíndrica do aço ABNT 52100

No processo de retificação, a lubrificação no contato da ferramenta (rebolo) com a peça e a refrigeração da superfície usinada visa melhor acabamento final. Este trabalho apresenta como alternativa ao método convencional de lubrificação/refrigeração (fluido abundante) a técnica MQL em duas condições: pura e com adição de água. Foram avaliadas a eficiência e a eficácia desses métodos no processo de retificação cilíndrica externa do aço ABNT 52100 com o rebolo de óxido de alumínio. Apesar de desgastar um maior volume de rebolo e resultar em um maior desvio de circularidade na peça, as técnicas de MQL puro e MQL com adição de água apresentaram os melhores valores de rugosidade, o que os tornam alternativas ao método convencional.
