Este ensaio clínico randomizado, controlado, duplo-cego, em paralelo, objetivou comparar o efeito do cimento de hidróxido de cálcio (grupo HC) ao de um material inerte (grupo cera) sobre a dentina cariada de molares decíduos submetidos à remoção incompleta de tecido cariado, bem como verificar a correlação entre coloração, consistência e contaminação da dentina. A amostra foi constituída por 30 crianças, de 4 a 8 anos de idade, que apresentavam um molar decíduo com lesão de cárie ativa em dentina profunda, sem sinais clínicos e radiográficos de patologia pulpar irreversível. Após anestesia local e isolamento absoluto do campo operatório, a dentina cariada das paredes laterais da cavidade foi totalmente removida, e a da porção pulpar, parcialmente removida. Um examinador calibrado avaliou visualmente o grau de coloração e de consistência da dentina cariada remanescente. Uma amostra do tecido cariado foi coletada para avaliação ao microscópio eletrônico de varredura (MEV). Aplicou-se, aleatoriamente, um dos materiais capeadores sobre o tecido, e os dentes foram restaurados com sistema adesivo e resina composta. Passados 90 dias realizou-se o exame clínico e radiográfico, remoção da restauração e do material capeador, avaliação da coloração e consistência do tecido e coleta de amostra da dentina remanescente. Após a fixação e preparo para MEV, foi realizado um registro, em 2000x de aumento, da região central de cada amostra e o escore do grau de contaminação foi determinado. Para comparação entre os grupos dos graus de coloração, consistência e contaminação atribuídos no início e no final do estudo aplicou-se a prova U de Mann-Whitney. Através do teste de Wilcoxon, as variáveis estudadas foram comparadas entre a fase inicial e final do estudo, dentro de um mesmo grupo. O teste de correlação de Spearman foi realizado para avaliar a correlação entre as variáveis clínicas e a contaminação da dentina. O nível de significância estabelecido foi de 5%, e o indivíduo considerado a unidade analítica. Não houve diferença entre os grupos quanto à coloração (p=0,355), consistência (p=0,329) e contaminação (p=0,561) dentinária no início do estudo. Ao final, houve diferença quanto à coloração (p=0,023) e consistência (p=0,022), demonstrando que o hidróxido de cálcio promoveu endurecimento e escurecimento da dentina significativamente maior do que a cera. Quanto aos graus de contaminação, não houve diferença entre os grupos (p=0,703). Entre as fases do estudo, o hidróxido de cálcio promoveu alteração significativa nos graus de coloração (p=0,011), consistência (p=0,003) e contaminação (p=0,006) da dentina; enquanto a cera promoveu alteração nos níveis de consistência (p=0,007) e contaminação (p=0,003), não alterando os graus de coloração (p=0,564) da dentina. A coloração e contaminação iniciais apresentaram correlação positiva (rS=0,40; p=0,028), enquanto a consistência e contaminação finais apresentaram correlação negativa (rS=-0,50; p=0,005). Concluiu-se que o cimento de hidróxido de cálcio e a cera, quando utilizados como capeadores da dentina cariada, promoveram a inativação do processo carioso verificada por meio da alteração na consistência, bem como redução na contaminação do tecido.

O objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar, através de Microscopia Eletrônica de Varredura (MEV), a capacidade de remoção da lama dentinária nas regiões cervical, média e apical do canal radicular após a utilização das soluções de EDTA dissódico, trissódico e tetrassódico a 17% e do gel de EDTA a 24% durante a preparação do canal radicular. A amostra consistiu em 100 dentes humanos, monorradiculares, extraídos, aleatoriamente divididos em cinco grupos. Nos grupos experimentais foram utilizados soluções de EDTA dissódico, trissódico e tetrassódico a 17 % e gel de EDTA trissódico a 24%. No grupo controle foi utilizado água destilada. Cada dente foi dividido longitudinalmente e analisado no MEV. As paredes dos canais radiculares foram examinadas nas regiões cervical, média e apical quanto à remoção da lama dentinária, presença de detritos e abertura dos túbulos dentinários. Durante este processo, foram realizadas fotomicrografias com aumento de 2000 vezes. O sistema de classificação utilizado na análise foi: 0 – ausência de lama dentinária, túbulos dentinários abertos e livres de detritos; 1 – lama dentinária moderada, contorno dos túbulos visíveis ou parcialmente preenchidos por detritos; 2 – abundante lama dentinária, sem distinção do contorno dos túbulos. Para a análise estatística foram utilizados os testes não paramétricos de Friedman e Kruskall-Wallis. Os resultados mostraram diferença estatística entre os grupos teste e controle (p=0,01). No entanto, quando comparados entre si, os grupos teste não apresentaram diferença significativa. Foi verificado na comparação entre as regiões cervical, média e apical diferença estatística no grupo que foi utilizado EDTA gel (p=0,01). Neste grupo foi observado que a eficácia de remoção da lama dentinária foi menor na região apical do que nas regiões cervical e média, que não apresentaram diferenças entre si. A maior presença de lama dentinária na região apical foi confirmada ao se reunir todos os grupos em que se utilizou EDTA e comprovar que a região apical apresentava significativamente mais lama dentinária do que as regiões cervical e média (p=0,01). Dessa forma pode-se concluir que as soluções de EDTA dissódico, trissódico e tetrassódico a 17% e o gel de EDTA trissódico a 24% foram eficientes na remoção da lama dentinária e que a região apical do canal radicular apresentou maior presença de lama dentinária do que as regiões cervical e média.

O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar as características da dentina cariada remanescente de molares decíduos quanto à coloração, consistência e microdureza, após um período médio de 3 anos e 8 meses da realização do capeamento pulpar indireto. O estudo clínico constou de 27 dentes que apresentavam lesões cariosas ativas com expressão radiográfica em metade interna de dentina. Aleatoriamente, foi realizado o capeamento pulpar indireto e utilizado como material capeador o hidróxido de cálcio (HC) e o cimento de ionômero de vidro resinoso modificado (CIVRM). As crianças foram acompanhadas através de exames clínicos e radiográficos, e ao longo de um período médio de 3 anos e 8 meses, observou-se um índice de sucesso de 89% para o grupo do HC e de 93% para o CIVRM, não havendo diferença estatisticamente significante entre os dois grupos (p=0,62). Os dentes considerados como sucesso no estudo clínico foram agrupados em um único grupo (grupo teste), que constou de 13 dentes que sofreram esfoliação natural ou exodontia por motivos ortodônticos. Além disso, foram selecionados 15 molares decíduos hígidos (grupo controle positivo) e 15, portadores de lesões cariosas ativas em metade interna de dentina (grupo controle negativo). As amostras do grupo teste tiveram suas respectivas restaurações removidas, a profundidade medida e a dentina remanescente avaliada por um operador calibrado, seguindo critérios descritivos, quanto à consistência e a coloração. Nos dentes do grupo controle positivo, foram realizados preparos cavitários oclusais em até 4 mm de profundidade, enquanto que, no grupo controle negativo, o mesmo operador do estudo clínico realizou a remoção parcial de tecido cariado in vitro. A partir daí, todos os dentes foram preparados para análise de microdureza, que foi realizada por um examinador calibrado, que empregou o princípio de cegamento. Na análise da consistência, todos os dentes do grupo teste (n=13) apresentaram-se endurecidos, enquanto que 9, apresentaram coloração amarela-clara (8 do CIVRM e 1 do HC) e 4, castanho-escura (1 do CIVRM e 3 do HC). Para o teste de microdureza no grupo teste, obteve-se uma média KHN de 40,81 (±16,28) MPa, enquanto que nos grupos controles positivo e negativo, foram alcançados valores médios de 62,73 (±11,24) MPa e 19,15 (±6,99) MPa, respectivamente. A análise estatística mediante o teste ANOVA indicou que houve diferença significativa entre os 3 grupos. Foi constatada a remineralização da dentina de dentes decíduos em que foi realizada a técnica do capeamento pulpar indireto após um período médio de 3 anos e 8 meses, através de critérios clínico (consistência) e laboratorial (análise da microdureza).

Family Health Strategy (FHS), founded in 1994 has appeared to play a strategic role in the SUS construction and consolidation. It has reaffirmed its Principles and Guidelines and has elected family as core of attention. The principle that has guided the work concerns the quality of the relationship between professional and family. Thus, the FHS has the family as a subject of health-disease process, and relations with its own characteristics and can be partners in building their health and improvement of quality of life of its members and the entire community. This study aims to characterize the surgeon-dentist (SD) working process in the family health strategy, from the knowledge of the SD integration with other team members; organization of services; development of shares, changes perceived by SDs, as well as knowing the surgeon-dentist profile who is part of this strategy. The collecting tool used was a semi-structured questionnaire, in which participated 30 professionals. As for profile, most professionals were women, completed the graduation in public university and did not have any training to work by joining the FHS. Almost all have other public or private working ties. They often carry out activities with students, and occasionally do home visits. In relation to team work, in activities such as home visits, school health, community activities, among others, they sometimes seek the cooperation of other members. The way of accessing for users in the most part has occurred through the schedule. The most frequently activities made to the Centro Especialidades Odontológicas (CEO), are in Endodontics and Prosthesis. The majority of them participate in team meetings, but they do not have frequency set to happen. As for the planning and programming of activities to be conducted, most said that individually develops them. Concerning the performance of their duties, most reported being satisfied, but that improvements could happen. Besides, they reported improvements in dental care following the inclusion of SD in the FHS in various aspects, such as access, organization, humanization, care and oral disease prevention. The professionals had poor integration with other team members, in addition to have a profile to more individualistic work, a fact seized by way of development and planning of actions. They work the actions in individual and curative way, in detriment promotion and collective ones. They work humanization, definition of territory and adscript population. Thus, it is concluded that the working process developed by SDs, includes the part which is advocated by FHS. This points out to a greater undertaking of this process aiming to detect the weakness met in order to reach the potential that the FHS represents in organization of basic attention

The Specialized Dental Care Centers (CEO) were developed to provide specialized dental care to the population, given the accumulated needs of health since the past. They must operate as units of reference for the Oral Health Team of the Primary Care, complementing the dental procedures performed at this level of attention. This study aims to assess the performance of CEOs of the Grande Natal Health Region as a strategy of Secondary Care consolidation in oral health through users, dentists and managers. For this to try to identify factors about access, hosting and satisfaction with the service, the actions developed in these centers, integration between the CEOs and the Basic Health Units (UBS), considering the reference and counter reference. Data were collected through semi-structured interview, conducted in four CEOs, among 253 users, 31 dentists and 4 managers. It was submitted to descriptive statistical analysis and to content analysis by software ALCESTE 4.5. The results revealed that the specialties of prosthesis, endodontics and surgery were the most sought by 38.2%, 23.7% and 21.7% of respondents, respectively. It was noticed that among users aged 18 to 30 years-old the greatest demand is for the specialty of endodontics (44.4%) and over 50 years for prosthesis (76.4%). There is a weakness in the reference and counter reference between UBS and CEO, because part of users goes directly to the centers without going before to the Primary Care and the majority does not want to return to the dentist of Health Unit. Satisfaction with care was reported by 90.9% of users, because they resolved the problems needed and were welcomed by the team. But the delay in care was the main factor for not satisfaction. For most dentists, some users could solve their problems completely in Primary Care, which shows the existence of unnecessary referrals to the CEOs, however they consider the existence of limiting factors in UBS that compromise the service. Most dentists revealed that some users do not get to CEOs with the basic dental treatment done, and some of them do not counter reference users. It can be concluded that the studied CEOs are being resolutive for those who access them, offering necessary care for the population, and if they don t account with this service, will encounter obstacles to resolution of problems, ranging seek care service in particular, in another public sector, or even giving up treatment. However, it is perceived the need of professionals training to understand the importance of the reference and counter reference, to that they can better serve and guide users. It is also important that cities offer better conditions to UBS and CEOs, so they can work together, with complementary actions of oral health, seeking full care, aiming for better resolution to the users' health problems

The Health Family Program (HFP) was founded in the 1990s with the objective of changing the health care model through a restructuring of primary care. Oral health was officially incorporated into HFP mainly through the efforts of dental professionals, and was seen as a way to break from oral health care models based on curative, technical biological and inequity methods. Despite the fast expansion of HFP oral health teams, it is essential to ask if changes are really occurring in the oral health model of municipalities. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the incorporation of oral health teams into the Health Family Program by analyzing the factors that may interfere positively or negatively in the implementation of this strategy and consequently in the process of changing oral health care models in the National Health System in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. This evaluation involves three dimensions: access, work organization and strategies of planning. For this purpose,19 municipalities, geographically distributed according to Regional Public Health Units (RPHU), were randomly selected. The data collection instruments used were: structured interview of supervisors and dentists, structured observation, documental research and data from national health data banks. It was possible to identify critical points that may be impeding the implementation of oral health into HFP, such as, low incomes, no legal employment contract, difficulty in referring patients for high-complexity procedures, in developing intersectoral actions and program strategies such as epidemiologic diagnosis and evaluation of the new actions. The majority of municipalities showed little or no improvement in oral health care after incorporating the new model into HFP. All of them had failures in most of the aspects mentioned above. Furthermore, these municipalities are similar in other areas, such as low educational levels in children from 7 to 14 years of age, high child mortality rates and wide social inequalities. On the other hand, the five municipalities that had improved oral health, according to the categories analyzed, offered better living conditions to the population, with higher life expectancy, low infant mortality rates, per capita income among the highest in the state as well as high Human Development Index (HDI) means. Therefore, it is possible to conclude that public policies that include aspects beyond the health sector are decisive for a real change in health care models

Objective: To evaluate the degree of users satisfaction and technical quality of endodontic treatment in specialized dental clinics (CEO) of Grande Natal / RN between 2006 and 2008. Methodology: evaluated 282 endodontically treated teeth in CEOs through clinical and radiographic examinations. A questionnaire about the clinical condition of the tooth, evaluation of care and satisfaction with treatment was applied. Data on pre-and trans-operative were noted by the patient's clinical record. Endodontically treated teeth were examined by a specialist in endodontics, which compared with previous radiographs and current ones. The collected datas were presented descriptively by absolute numbers, percentages, averages. To determine the association between the independent and dependent variables was carried out through the bivariate association test Chi-square and Fisher exact test. Results: 79.8% presented with radiographic normal and 84.4% without pain symptoms. 8.2% of the teeth were fractured and 3.2% extracted. The persistence of the periapical lesion was associated with initial periapical status (p <0.05). 91.5% of patients are satisfied with the outcome of treatment. Such satisfaction is associated with absence of pain and an adequate esthetic tooth position (p <0.05). Conclusion: endodontic treatment in specialized dental clinics have an adequate technical quality, resulting in the success of endodontic therapy performed in these centers and that users are satisfied with the treatment

The neurovascular system of the pulp and of the periodontium is interconnected and among the possible intercommunications between these two tissues, there is the cavo inter-radicular canal. It is a small canal that goes through any inter-radicular dentine and arises in the furca region of the multi-radicular teeth. Its predominance has been studied in the literature, by several methodologies, with divergent results. The objective of this work was to establish, in vitro, the predominance of the cavo inter-radicular canal, in human lower molars, through the diaphanization technique and dye leakage. For this research, 140 teeth (100 first and second 40 lower molars) were selected, extracted due to different reasons, belonging to a teeth bank of the Endodontics discipline of the Dentistry College at Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte. The teeth were preserved in formol until the moment of use and immersed in physiological solution. Had the endodontic access fulfilled and the whole external surface, except for the furcation, sealed with two layers of nail enamel. The cleaning of the pulpar chamber floor was carried out with sodium hypochlorite solution 5%, being this solution renewed every 5 minutes, during 1 hour. The teeth were immersed in Indian dye and, after drying of the dye, they had their crowns split up in the amelo-cemental junction. Then, they were examined in a stereomicroscope, where marks of the coloring were observed in the furcation and on the pulpar floor. After this recording, the sample was diaphanized and with the transparent teeth, it was possible to observe in the stereomicroscope, the true inter-radicular canals. As a result of this experiment, the presence of these canals was observed in 13 % of the first and 7, 5 % of the second evaluated molars. The study showed that both the presence of the cavo inter-radicular canal is real and the diaphanization and dye leakage is an efficient method for this type of research

The purpose of this study was to evaluate through radiographic and microscopic analysis the efficiency of the filling techniques by vertical hidraulic compression after the root canal mechanical instrumentation in vitro as well to evaluate the marginal apical leakage through macroscopic and microscopic analysis. Thirty human mandibular molars were used , they were divided on three groups, these were subdivided on six subgroups with five specimens each, come down to 106 root canals filled. Initially, the teeth were instrumented with Profile system series 29 and filled with two ways: single accessory cone or single cone associated with gutta-percha secundary cone, with Fill Canal sealer or Sealer 26. Completed the filling, the teeth were coated with araldit and finger -nail polish except for the apical 2 mm and dried for 3 hours, thep radiographs were taken of the teeth in orto and disto-radiai directions. Next, the coronal seal was carried out with composite resin photopolymerized and with their process of making impermeable. Teeth of positive controls were used without araldit and finger-nail polish whereas the negative controls were used with total coat of araldit and finger-nail polish. The specimens were placed in 2% Methylene Blue dye for 24 hours and thermocycled for 7 days. Afterwards, sections were made of each tooth at mesial and distal roat, after this the teeth were radiographed at buccolíngual direction for a macroscopic analysis and at buccolingual and mesiodistal directions for assessment of the marginal apical leakage. Cross sections were made 3 mm to 3mm since the tooth apice. The sections obtained for each group were observed with a stereomicroscope to evaluate the quality of the root canal filling and the marginal apical leakage. The results showed that: In the four techniques the marginal dye leakage was present in the apical third; in all groups the quality of the root canal filling in the radiography was better at mesial root canal and the single cone technique showed inefficient when only a single distal root canal was present. In the radiographic evaluation the best quality of the root canal filling was observed in the 1A group (single accessory cone + FiIl Canal), as in the mesial root as in the distal root wich Shcwed twe root canals: when the distaI root had only one canal. the best result was showed by 28 group (single accessory cone associated with secundary cone + Fill Canal) In the macroscopic analysis of longitudinal !eaKage (outside surface). less leakage was showed as In the mesial root as in the distal root in the negative control group (3) followed 2A group (single accessory cone + Sealer 26). When the microscopic analysis of tranversal leakage of both roots (inside surface) was carried out. the groups that showed less dye leakage were the negative control (38) followed the 28 group (single acessory cone associated with secundary cone + Sealer 26). The homogeneity o filling was best noted in the 1 A group (.single accessoty cone + Fill Canal). The groups that showed less dye penetration in the tranversal leakage (total area) were negative control (3B) and 2B

Este trabalho avaliou o selamento marginal apical de canais radiculares obturados com os cimentos endodônticos Sealapex, Apexit, Sealer 26 e Ketac Endo. Utilizaram-se 136 raízes, cujos canais radiculares, após o preparo biomecânico, foram obturados pela técnica da condensação lateral ativa com os cimentos em estudo. Metade das amostras, imediatamente após as obturações, foram imersas na solução de azul de metileno a 2% e a outra metade após 6 meses de armazenamento em plasma sangüíneo humano. Observou-se que os cimentos Sealapex e Sealer 26 apresentaram infiltrações médias estatisticamente iguais entre si e menores que as observadas para os demais cimentos (p < 0,05). Amostras imersas no corante imediatamente após a obturação dos canais apresentaram infiltração média menor (0,829 mm) do que aquelas mantidas por 6 meses em plasma sangüíneo humano (1,275 mm). Estas diferenças foram estatisticamente significantes (p < 0,05).

O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar a morfologia dos cimentos Sealapex, Apexit, Sealer 26 (cimentos a base de hidróxido de cálcio) e Ketac Endo (cimento de ionômero de vidro), através da microscopia de força atômica, verificando-se as características de suas partículas após a obturação dos canais radiculares e após um período de seis meses de contato com o plasma sanguíneo humano. Utilizaram-se 16 dentes unirradiculares humanos extraídos e incluídos em blocos de resina após o preparo biomecânico. As raízes foram divididas em quatro grupos de quatro raízes cada e os canais radiculares obturados pela técnica de condensação lateral passiva com os cimentos em estudo. Verificou-se que o cimento Apexit foi o que mais sofreu desintegração após seis meses de imersão em plasma sanguíneo humano, seguido pelo Ketac Endo e Sealapex. Dentre todos os cimentos estudados, o Sealer 26 mostrou-se o mais uniforme e com a menor desintegração.
