Evaluación comparativa in vitro de la capacidad de sellado del sistema de conductos radiculares por diferentes técnicas

The aim of this study was to evaluate in vitro the sealing ability of the root canal using different techniques: cold lateral compaction, modified Hybrid Tagger, Thermafil and System B. Material and methods. Were used 116 human single-roots, included in resin blocks, sectioned longitudinally, attached to a device with screws and divided into four groups (n=29). After instrumentation using a bur, depression was made in each third of the root canal in each of the halves. Teeth were filled upon the different techniques. For evaluation of the quality, pictures were taken with a 1.5X magnification, photos and radiographs were utilized. After statistical analysis, were performed both macroscopic and radiographic evaluation, by Chi-square test (χ2). Results. The Thermafil technique showed better results in terms of sealing capacity, failures and homogeneity followed by modified Hybrid Tagger, the System B and cold lateral compaction. Conclusions. Thermafil was the technique that shown to be macroscopic, radiographic and homogeneously best over the other techniques evaluated in regard to the filling of the depressions made (AU)

Cirugía endodóntica con obturación simultánea del conducto radicular: caso atípico

The apical surgery with simultaneous root filling consists in the elimination of the local etiologic factors concomitant with the shaping and obturation of the root canal system. This technique is indicated when there is no possibility of obturating the root canal by conventional methods. Some adverse factors may difficult the clinical procedures, such as the radiographic interpretation. Periapical radiographs must not be used as the main diagnostic resource due to their inherent disadvantages, such as distortion and superimposition with other anatomical structures. The aim of this clinical case report is to show the limitations of radiographic examination in an apical surgery in which a root perforation was not visible in the radiographic image, as well as the gutta-percha was not related to its real clinical location.

Recobrimento radicular para o tratamento de hipersensibilidade dentinária cervical persistente

Gingival recession has a high prevalence in the population. This alteration may promote several complications such as cervical dentinal hypersensitivity (HSDC), carious and non-carious cervical lesions, and cosmetic changes due to the increase of the clinical crown length. To treat HSDC there are several therapeutic possibilities that should aim to eliminate pain after external stimulus. Treatment of this alteration can be performed by a conventional or invasive procedure, depending on the clinical condition and patients' desires. In situations where aesthetics is not the main complaint and HSDC persists even after conservative procedures, it is possible to indicate a procedure to achieve root coverage in Miller's Class I and II recessions. The aim of this paper is to report a case where the HSDC was not eliminated by conventional methods, which was resolved only after performing a minimally invasive surgery that promoted total root coverage.

Root canal filling: fracture strength of fiber-reinforced composite-restored roots and finite element analysis

The aims of this study were to evaluate the effect of root canal filling techniques on root fracture resistance and to analyze, by finite element analysis (FEA), the expansion of the endodontic sealer in two different root canal techniques. Thirty single-rooted human teeth were instrumented with rotary files to a standardized working length of 14 mm. The specimens were embedded in acrylic resin using plastic cylinders as molds, and allocated into 3 groups (n=10): G(lateral) - lateral condensation; G(single-cone) - single cone; G(tagger) - Tagger's hybrid technique. The root canals were prepared to a length of 11 mm with the #3 preparation bur of a tapered glass fiber-reinforced composite post system. All roots received glass fiber posts, which were adhesively cemented and a composite resin core was built. All groups were subjected to a fracture strength test (1 mm/min, 45°). Data were analyzed statistically by one-way ANOVA with a significance level of 5%. FEA was performed using two models: one simulated lateral condensation and Tagger's hybrid technique, and the other one simulated the single-cone technique. The second model was designed with an amount of gutta-percha two times smaller and a sealer layer two times thicker than the first model. The results were analyzed using von Mises stress criteria. One-way ANOVA indicated that the root canal filling technique affected the fracture strength (p=0.004). The G(lateral) and G(tagger) produced similar fracture strength values, while G(single-cone) showed the lowest values. The FEA showed that the single-cone model generated higher stress in the root canal walls. Sealer thickness seems to influence the fracture strength of restored endodontically treated teeth.

Estética em sistema metal free associado a núcleos metalocerâmicos personalisados

The evolution of ceramic systems currently allows the manufacture of prosthesis similar to the natural teeth, meeting the expectations of patients. However, when using vitreous ceramic the color of substrate is significant for the esthetic result, requiring planning aesthetic cores when involved reconstruction of endodontically treated teeth without coronal structure. Thus, the aim of this study to describe a case report of aesthetic rehabilitation in upper anterior teeths using vitreous ceramic system for the reconstruction of elements: 11, 12, 21 and 22 after endodontically treated. It was emphasized the removal of crowns and manufacture of custom cast post and core with ceramic in coronal portion, prioritizing the aesthetic result. Through the clinical results observed can be seen that the use of custom cast post and core with ceramic in association lithium disilicate glass ceramics provided a satisfactory aesthetic result.

Influência da sequência técnica do sistema K3 Endo na segurança e rapidez do preparo de canais curvos simulados

O objetivo do presente trabalho foi comparar duas sequências diferentes na rapidez e segurança no preparo de canais curvos simulados. Foram empregados 30 blocos de acrílico com canais simulados que foram divididos em Grupo 1 – La Axxess 20 e 35/.06 25/.06, 20/.06, 25/.04 e 20/.04 e Grupo 2 – K3 Universal (VTVT) – 25/.10, 25/.08, 35/.06, 30/.04, 25/.06 e 20/.04. No preparo de todos os blocos empregou-se a velocidade de 250 rpm e torque de 1.4N/cm. Foram confeccionados dois pontos externos de amálgama para mensuração do desvio e adotou-se 17 mm como comprimento de trabalho. No Grupo 1, dilatou-se até o instrumento 25/.04, enquanto que no Grupo 2 até o 25/.06, e cronometrou-se o tempo de preparo de cada bloco. Na análise do desvio, radiografias com lima k 15 (antes) e K 25 (depois) foram realizadas e digitalizadas, medindo-se o ângulo antes e depois no programa Digora for Windows 1.51. Os dados foram comparados pelo teste T-Student e Mann-Whitney. Os resultados mostraram que em ambas as técnicas não ocorreram diferenças significantes entre o ângulo antes e depois e que não ocorreu diferença significante entre os desvios médios do Grupo 1 (0,130) e do Grupo 2 (1,330). No tempo de preparo, o Grupo 1 foi significantemente mais rápido que o Grupo 2. No Grupo 1, ocorreu a fratura de 1 instrumento, enquanto que no Grupo 2 ocorrerem duas fraturas. Concluiu-se que ambas as técnicas são seguras para o preparo de canais simulados curvos, sendo que no Grupo 1 o tempo de preparo é menor.
