Nasal fractures are extremely frequent. The nasal bones are the third most frequently fractured bones in the human skeleton. This is due to their prominent position on the face and to the diminished bone thickness. As a result, weak forces can cause nasal fractures, while stronger forces can comminute the nasal bones. In general, assaults, falls and sports injuries are the etiologies most commonly involved in nasal trauma. The diagnosis of such fractures is basically clinical and their treatment is usually by closed reduction with good results reported in all the relevant literature. Thus, the aim of this paper is to report a modification of the closed reduction technique for the treatment of these fractures.

The correction of bone defects is the restoration of lost structures which can be replaced by alloplastic implants or bone grafts. Due to the known disadvantages of removal of autogenous grafts, most researches in dentistry aim to develop alloplastic or non-alloplastic materials able to replace bone without these limitations. Beta-Tricalcium Phosphate (β-TCP) is a synthetic granular bone substitute, biocompatible, osteoconductive, which can be used in the alveolar reconstruction. In this work, we perform a literature review on the β-TCP characteristics and discuss its application in dentistry.

The knowledge of Forensic Anthropology is very importance in cases of identification of human remains. One phase of this process is the study of human height, which can be accomplished with relative ease when intact corpses, complete skeletons or long bones are available. However, the experience of Forensic Dentistry is essential in situations in which there is only information of the skull or of the teeth. The objective of this study was to review in the literature and evaluate works concerning the estimate of the height calculated from dental dimensions. Carrea, in 1920, proposed the estimation of the probable height of an individual by developing formulas for maximum and minimum heights from measurements of the lower central and lateral incisors and canines. The method was used in the case "Josef Mengele", to complement estimates. Tested in the Brazilian population, 70% of match between the actual and the estimated stature were obtained. Using more precise instruments, in the modified method, 96% of correct matching were verified. Recently, a new formula was introduced to estimate height, from measurements of upper teeth, because the technique cannot be used when jaw is not available. The correlation between height and dental dimensions is demonstrated. However, there is still a lack in scientific literature in this field, and further studies are necessary. The estimate of height from dental dimensions can be very useful and important, especially in situations where the complete skeleton it not found, and long bones are not available.

As fraturas de rádio e ulna em animais de companhia são ocorrências ortopédicas de grande incidência em Medicina Veterinária. Cães de pequeno porte parecem ter uma maior incidência de fraturas em terço distal do rádio e ulna. A consolidação de ossos fraturados baseia-se na redução anatômica ou na aproximação dos maiores fragmentos. Para haver uma correta cicatrização óssea, os implantes ortopédicos devem anular todas as forças atuantes no foco de fratura. O tratamento dessas fraturas é descrito como difícil, em porte do tipo toy e miniatura. A ocorrência da não consolidação óssea é alta chegando a 60% dos casos estudados. Alguns fatores identificados afetam a osteossíntese em cães de raças de pequeno porte, pois são inerentes à instabilidade biomecânica, como, o mínimo contato da superfície do osso após a redução, devido ao pequeno diâmetro existente, diminuição da cobertura de tecido mole, formação constante de cartilagem no foco da fratura, e diminuição da densidade vascular na junção diáfise-metafisária distal em comparação com cães de raças de grande porte. O objetivo da presente revisão sistemática foi avaliar o melhor método de tratamento para fraturas distais de rádio e/ou ulna em cães de raças de pequeno porte. Como metodologia foram utilizados 14 artigos científicos, sendo 11 internacionais e quatro nacionais. A aplicação de placas, nesse estudo sistemático, foi considerado o método mais eficaz para fixação de fraturas distais de rádio e ulna em cães de pequeno porte

Skull represents the segment with conspicuous adaptations that, in lizards, may be conservative or promoted by selective pressures. The aim of assisting the morphological knowledge of reptiles, we provide a detailed description of the neurocranium of Iguana iguana iguana based on analysis of three dried adult skeletons. The skull of this species has basal characteristics in lizards without closure of cranial openings and general triangular shape. Bony structures that form the caudal base have many fusions, especially on the floor. In the caudal face the exoccipital and the opisthotic are fused and form the otooccipital, which contributes to the formation of the lateral part of the condyle. The central part is formed by the condyle supraocciopital. Fusions and skeletal structures in Iguana are similar to other lizards. There are no autopomorphies in the neurocranium for this species.

O cádmio (Cd) é um metal tóxico considerado não essencial nos organismos. As principais vias de exposição e contaminação pelo metal vem de atividades antrópicas. Há evidências suficientes de que o Cd e seus compostos são carcinogênicos, tendo como principais órgãos afetados: rins, ossos, pulmões e próstata. No citosol o Cd pode estar na forma livre (genericamente, como complexos inorgânicos lábeis) ou ligado com metalotioneinas (genericamente, ligado a proteínas). A relação do Cd (livre ou lábil) com patogenicidades faz com que seja de grande importância a elaboração de métodos para especiação do metal. Este projeto teve como objetivo propor um método para determinação seletiva do Cd lábil em baixas concentrações (μg L-1) utilizando um substrato biológico como material sorvente (S. cerevisiae). A utilização da S. cerevisiae tem sido recomendada para pré-concentração e especiação de metais em água e materiais biológicos. No entanto, estes métodos não proporcionam limites de detecção (LD) suficientes para determinação seletiva de Cd lábil em algumas situações, particularmente quando se procura estabelecer uma relação desta fração do metal com algumas patogenicidades. O método desenvolvido consiste, basicamente, em amostrar o Cd lábil no citosol pela levedura. Depois de digestão ácida em sistema pressurizado (micro-ondas) e/ou da eluição, a espécie retida pela levedura foi determinada por ICP-MS. O uso da ICP-MS permitiu atingir LD suficientes para detecção de Cd, sendo para retenção 0,004 μg L-1 e para a eluição 0,003 μg L-1

The Temporomandibular Joint is a noble structure of the complex mandibular, a lot of research was conducted on the to signs and symptoms of the alterations that attack those structures. ln spite of the high incidence of the DTM in children, there's little knowledge about it, wich makes difficult the treatment Desorders Craniomandibulares (DCM) or Desorders Temporomandibulars (DTM). The Temporomandibular Joint is composed basically by three elements: bones, muscles and disk, in relation to bony part, we have the fossae mandibular that is part of the temporary bone and wich houses the condyle mandibular, accomplishing the articulation among the cranium and the jaw (it leaves piece of furniture of the articulation). Our intention in that work was of verifying a possible asymmetry of the fossae mandibular on the left side and of the right side in relation to two straight line: a straight line that coincided with the plane medium sagittal and another perpendicular straight line to the plan medium sagittal. Analyzing, the fossae mandibular in 91 dry craniums of children, with age varying between four months of life intrauterina and five years, in x-rays in that the incidence was cranium-flow, we could end that: in spite of we find statistical significance in relation to that asymmetry, clinic cannot affirm that interferences on occlusion exists for that asymmetry

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the possibility to obtaining guided bone regeneration utilizing a nonporous PTFE barrier in the osseointegrated implants, protruding from the bone level of the rabbit tíbia. The histologic characteristics of the interface between titanium implants, one group titanium-plasma coated, another group with acid-treated surfaces and the regenerated bone were also studied Twenty Screw-Vent implants were placed in tibias of five rabbits, two at the right side and two at the left side, protruding 3 mm from the bone level, to create a horizontal bone defect. ln the experimental side, the implants and adjacent bone were protected with a nonporous PTFE barrier. Histologic analysis after three months showed that all implants were in direct contact with the bane. Histologic measurements showed an average gain in bone height of the 2.15 and 2.42 mm for the barrier group and 1.95 and 0.43 mm for the control defects, in the titanium plasma-spray and acid-treated implant surfaces, respectively. The results suggest that the placement of implants protruding 3 mm from crestal bone defects may result in vertical bone augmentation and the regenerated bone is able to osseointegrate implants. lt seems to be critical the use of the PTFE barrier when acid-treated surface implants are inserted
