A remoção da smear layer é um procedimento importante para a regeneração periodontal e para o tratamento da sensibilidade dentinária. Diversos tratamentos tem sido realizados para sua remoção, porém, mostrando resultados conflitantes ou insatisfatórios. No presente estudo nos propomos a analisar através do microscópio eletrônico de varredura a eficiência dos detergentes: lauril sulfato de sódio, Plax e de mamona assim como o EDTA 24% na remoção da smear layer. Todos os produtos testados foram aplicados com bolinha de algodão, renovada a cada 30 segundos, a qual era esfregada na superfície radicular por diferentes períodos. As fotomicrografias foram analisadas através da aplicação de um índice de remoção da smear layer por três examinadores calibrados e os resultados analisados estatisticamente. De acordo com nossos resultados pudemos chegar as seguintes conclusões: 1- a instrumentação com curetas de Gracey provocou a formação da smear layer; 2- o detergente lauril sulfato de sódio não removeu a smear layer, tendo sido o pior resultado entre os detergentes testados; 3- Os detergentes Plax e de mamona mostraram resultados semelhantes entre si e superiores ao controle negativo e ao lauril sulfato de sódio, porém, não removeram a smear layer satisfatoriamente; 4- O EDTA 24% neutro mostrou ser eficiente para a remoção da smear layer.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o pH e a densidade óptica das soluções de azul de metileno a 1% e 2% (tamponadas e não tamponadas) após a imersão de três cimentos endodônticos. Foram preparados oitenta espécimes de cada cimento endodôntico (Endofill, AH Plus e Sealapex), os quais foram imersos nas soluções corantes. As soluções foram analisadas antes e após a imersão dos materiais nos períodos de tempo de 0, 24, 48 e 72h. Foram realizadas avaliações do pH utilizando um pHmetro e da densidade óptica utilizando um espectofotômetro ajustado em 596nm. Os dados de pH foram analisados através de estatística descritiva e os dados da densidade óptica foram analisados pela ANOVA e teste de Tukey 5%. Pôde-se verificar que as soluções corantes de azul de metileno tamponadas e não tamponadas apresentaram pequena variação nos valores de pH e densidade óptica antes do contato com os cimentos endodônticos. As soluções corantes não tamponadas apresentaram valores de pH menores que as tamponadas, independentemente do contato com qualquer cimento endodôntico. Os cimentos endodônticos promoveram alterações nos valores de pH das soluções corantes, sendo que as maiores alterações ocorreram nas soluções não tamponadas. Ocorreram alterações nos valores da densidade óptica das soluções corantes tamponadas e não tamponadas nos diferentes períodos de tempo de análise, sendo diferentes para cada cimento endodôntico utilizado

Diuron (3-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea) is a substituted urea herbicide widely used on agricultural crops such as soy, cotton and sugar cane. In a previous long-term study this herbicide exerted carcinogenic activity on the urinary bladder and renal pelvis mucosa of Wistar rats and breast of mice. Also, it was shown to be carcinogenic to the mice skin in a initiation-promotion assay. In 1997, the northamerican EPA evaluated Diuron as a “known/likely” carcinogen for humans (USEPA, 2004). In a previous study developed at this laboratory, male Wistar rats treated with Diuron 2500 ppm during 20 weeks presented increased indices of cell proliferation and incidences of simple urothelial hyperplasia (HS) in the urinary bladder. Under scanning electron microscopy (SEM) severe urothelial necrosis and hyperplasia were observed. However, in that study the urinary bladders of animals exposed to lower doses of Diuron were not examined under SEM. Therefore, the possible dose-response influence of Diuron on the urothelium under SEM is not known. The present study aimed to analyze under SEM the urinary bladder of male Wistar rats exposed to 125 ppm, 500 ppm and 2500 ppm doses of Diuron through diet during 20 weeks and to compare to the previous histological findings in the same material. Under SEM, 125 ppm and 2500 ppm groups presented significantly (p<0,05) increased incidences of simple hyperplasia, i.e., 7/10 and 8/10 respectively, compared to control group and the 500 ppm group The sensitivity of SEM was higher since it detected a 45% incidence of hyperplasiaswhile the histological analysis found only 27%. Considering SEM as the gold-standard, histology showed a 44% sensitivity, 86.4% specificity, a positive predictive value of 72,7% and negative predictive value of 65,5% and accuracy of 67,5%.

The Sol-gel process has facilitated the processing of Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Materials with several scientific applications and technologies. The hybrid combine the advantages of the Sol-gel process with specific characteristics of organic polymers, allowing processing of thin films without fractures or fissures. The incorporation of azo dyes in polymer matrices has been widely used in the investigation of optical properties. The azo dye Disperse Red (DR1) presents optical alterations when exposed to visible or ultraviolet light. The alterations occur due to transitions of their isomers, trans and cis, caused by photoisomerization, due to electronic transitions of azo group (-N=N-), presenting photochromic and/or photorefractive effects. The hybrid system used in this work is the precursor 3- Glycidoxypropyl-Trimethoxi-silane (GPTS), the Tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) and DR1 as a dopant. The characterizations were performed using absorption spectroscopy UV-Vis which allowed the identification of the absorption bands and its variations when the samples were treated thermally and/or illuminated by ultraviolet light

Recent bonding systems have been advocated as multi-purpose bonding agents. The aim of this study was to determine if some of these bonding systems could be associated to composite resins from different manufacturers. This investigation was conducted to test lhe shear bond strength of three bonding systems: Scotchbond Multi-Purpose (3M Dental Products), Optibond Light Cure (Kerr) and Optibond Dual Cure (Kerr), when each of them was associated to lhe composite resins: Z1 00 (3M Dental Products), Prisma - APH (Dentsply) and Herculite XRV (Kerr). Seventy-two flat dentin bonding sites were prepared to 600 grit on human premolars mounted using acrilic resins. The teeth were assigned at random to 9 groups of 8 samples each. A split die with a 3mm diameter was placed over lhe surface of lhe dentin treated with one of lhe adhesive systems, and lhe selected composite resin was inserted and light cured. The split mold was removed and all samples were termocycled and stored in 37ºC water for 24 hours before testing. Shear bond strength was determined using an lnstron Universal testing machine. Some failures were examined under lhe S.E.M. Data was analysed by one-way analysis of variance, that demonstrated a significant difference (p<0,05) in the mean shear bond strength among Optibond Light Cure (15,446 MPa), Scotchbond Multi-Purpose (13,339 MPa) and Optibond Dual Cure (10,019 MPa). These values did not depend on the composite resin used. The association between bonding system/composite resin was statistycally significant (p<0,05) and the best results were obtained when the composite resins Z100 and Herculite were used with the adhesive system Optibond Light Cure, and when the composite resin APH was used with the adhesive system Scotchbond Multi-Purpose

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the apical sealing ability and the marginal adaptation of five dental materials used in retrofillings or applied to the bevelled root surface. One hundred and forty extracted single rooted human teeth were used, divided into seven groups of twenty each. ln the first, second, third and fourth groups, the teeth were apicoectomized, submitted to cavity preparations and retrofilled with one of the following materiais: zinc free silver amalgam, a dentin bonding system plus composite resin, a glass ionomer cement ora compomer. In the fifth, sixth and seventh groups, the teeth were apicoectomized and capped on the bevelled root surface with one of the following materiais: a dentin bonding system plus composite resin, a glass ionomer cement or a compomer. Two specimens of each experimental group were evaluated for the marginal adaptation using scanning electron microscopy. The remaining 126 specimens were immersed in 2% methylene blue dye, stored for one week at 37ºC and the infiltration was evaluated with a stereomicroscope. The results showed that the glass ionomer cement presented the lowest values of marginal infiltration when used as retrofilling material, with a significant statistical difference when compared with the others tested materials. When used as apical capping, the glass ionomer cement and the compomer were equivalent and significantly better than the dentin bonding system plus composite resin. Using scanning electron microscopy, all the materials showed some slight adjustment problem. ln the retrofilling, the smallest marginal gaps were observed with the compomer and the dentin bonding system plus composite resin, while the largest were observed with the glass ionomer cement and zinc free silver amalgam. ln the apical capping, the smallest marginal gaps were observed with the compomer and the dentin bonding system plus composite resin and ...
