Estudo do conteúdo de partículas inorgânicas, da contração de polimerização e da resistência à flexão de materiais restauradores estéticos diretos indicados para dentes posteriores

Recentemente, foram lançados no mercado odontológico novos materiais estéticos para restaurações diretas em dentes posteriores, aos quais são atribuídas propriedades mais adequadas para essa indicação. Entretanto, as informações disponíveis são ainda muito escassas, gerando dúvidas quanto à sua real eficácia, sobre quais as diferenças de suas composições e propriedades físicas e mecânicas em relação aos materiais até então disponíveis e se, de fato, apresentam melhor performance clínica. Em vista do exposto, nos propusemos a estudar contração de polimerização, resistência à flexão e concentração de partículas inorgânicas, por massa e volume, de sete resinas compostas (Alert, Ariston, Solitaire, Definite, Filtek P60, Z-100 e Tetric Ceram). A contração de polimerização foi medida nos materiais inseridos em um anel plástico, e o registro das alterações, durante a polimerização, foi feito por meio de instrumento eletrônico de medida linear, que registra as alterações dimensionais, com sensibilidade de 1 mm. A resistência à flexão foi medida na máquina de ensaios mecânicos MTS 810 e a confecção dos corpos-de-prova e dos dispositivos para o ensaio foi orientada pela norma ISO no 4049:1988. A determinação do conteúdo de partículas inorgânicas por massa foi feita através da pesagem de uma porção de resina composta polimerizada antes e após a eliminação da fase orgânica em forno, à temperatura de 700oC. O porcentual volumétrico de partículas inorgânicas foi calculado com base no Princípio de Arquimedes. Foi determinado o volume da resina composta polimerizada, antes e após a eliminação da fase orgânica, pela diferença da massa do material pesado ao ar e imerso em água. Os dados de conteúdo de partículas inorgânicas por massa e por volume, de contração de polimerização e resistência à flexão foram submetidos...(Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

Avaliação do PH e da densidade óptica do corante azul de metileno tamponado e não tamponado após o contato com diferentes cimentos endodônticos

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

Prevalência do uso de chupeta e conhecimento dos educadores numa escola de educação infantil: estudo piloto

Pacifier use is very common among children, but despite being considered a harmless article, there is ample evidence of their misdeeds. Therefore, concern about its use is great for us who work in the promotion of breastfeeding. It is this delicate subject in schools because the child, in most cases, already goes to school with the habit installed. The pacifier use may interfere with speech aspect, because the child can come to the wrong talk, dental, dental occlusions, may cause bacterial contamination and encourage early weaning. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of pacifier use among children of pre - school and knowledge of educators about the role of pacifier and its consequences. The research methodology was based on a questionnaire to teachers, monitors and direction and determine the prevalence of pacifier use with parents. According to the result, we developed an orientation for school. The results show that of the 57 children at the age of 4 months to 3 years, 50.88% used a pacifier, 92.98% and 96.49% used the bottle were breastfed. The guidance given after the data collection has clarified many questions for educators. We conclude that the methodology was effective because we can collect data addressing quantitative and qualitative questions and managed to get percentages on pacifier use and breastfeeding and student opinions, comments and more relevant phrases that emerged from parents and educators, complementing the result. Furthermore, through the data, it was possible to do an intervention. The results indicate that half of the children between 4 months and 3 years investigated makes use of a pacifier, so despite the advice given, it would be important to follow up these data over the next few years. We also conclude that a partnership is needed between parents and the school, because if the family does not help, you can not work in school guidance

Caracterização hidroquímica dos sistemas aquíferos Serra Geral e Guarani da sub-bacia do Rio Pardo e municípios adjacentes, no sudoeste do estado de São Paulo

The main purpose of this work is to evaluate the chemical composition of the groundwaters from Guarani Aquifer System and Serra Geral Aquifer System in the Rio Pardo basin, located at the southwestern of São Paulo state. To the hydrochemical characterization, physicalchemical analyses from 32 sampled wells were used. These results were plotted in Piper diagrams allowing the classification of groundwater as calcium or calcium-magnesium bicarbonate type and sodium bicarbonate type for both aquifer systems. Distribution of hydrochemical facies over the study area was obtained using Stiff diagrams. The groundwater can be classified, representing in this sequence its hydrochemical evolution. The recognized mechanisms responsible for groundwater evolution are dissolution of minerals magnesium, such as olivine, present in the basalt, dissolution of feldspars and removal of the carbonate cement of the sandstones mineral framework. Ionic exchange may represent an important processes in the groundwater evolution, responsible for the increase in the sodium concentration and decrease of calcium

Análise granulométrica do compósito cimentício produzido com adição de resíduos de madeira e escória

Since the early twenty-first century, the construction sector has been the second largest on the rise in the Brazilian industrial sector, with a growth of 1.4% in 2012, and is likely to remain at this level for a long time. However, unlike decades ago, the industry has been seeking in its manufacturing process, sustainable materials, encompassing in their works the concept of sustainability. Thus, the timber sector seeks to satisfy a market increasingly demanding, innovating techniques and utilization being less aggressive to the environment. The purpose of this study was to produce and evaluate the mechanical strength of the composite cement with the addition of wood residues and slag low oven. Therefore, it was made 42 specimen cement-slag-wood, carried out in two steps. Since at the first, it was varied only the slag particle size, and at the second, through the best result of the previous step, it was varied the wood particles granulometry. The mechanical performance of the composite was evaluated by the results obtained in the compression test and the physical test for determining the density of the material. In the first step of the process can be concluded that the best result was achieved with the use of slag particles retained on the 60 mesh sieve. In the second phase of the study concluded that the best results were achieved with wood particles with the large particles, i.e. particles retained on the 10 mesh sieve. Both in the first and in the second step it can be seen that there has been the influence of the particle size of the waste materials. With the obtained results, could be evaluated that the use of waste for the production of cement-slag-wood composite showed lower performance when compared to the results obtained in studies without the use of waste. However, some applications are feasible to be performed with the use of composite wood-cement-slag

Citotoxicidade de cimentos retrobturados experimentais em fibroblastos V79: [recurso eletrônico]

Combining the characteristics of good adhesion and sealing of the AH Plus sealer the biological properties of the MTA, zinc oxide and calcium hydroxide, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the cytotoxicity of these associations. The specimens of the sealers and their associations were mixed and exposure to culture medium (82.4 mm2surface/mL) after the manipulation and incubated in a humidified incubator (37°C and 100% humidity) for 24 h. Chinese hamster lung fibroblasts (V79) were exposed to different dilutions of this extracts for 24 h and cell viability was measured by MTT test. The differences between the cell survival rates were statistically analyzed for Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn (p≤0.05). All sealers showed a significant difference with the group control, except the MTA. Cytotoxicity with the control group increased in the following order: AH Plus < AH Plus + Ca(OH) 2 < AH Plus + OxZn< AH Plus + MTA < MTA (p≤ 0,05). It was concluded that the addition of biological materials in order to improve the consistency of AH Plus for use in retro cavities its toxicity has not decreased significantly

Influência do uso de hipoclorito de sódio 2,5% e extrato glicólico de sálvia 20% durante o preparo biomecânico sobre a resistência adesiva de retentores intra- radiculares: avaliação através do teste de push-out

The aim of this study it was to evaluate the use of irrigating solution used during root canal preparation on the adhesive cementation of prefabricated fiberglass pins. The bond strength between different regions of the root and the fiberglass pins cemented into the root canal were evaluated by push-out assay. For this study, 36 human teeth were used, all equally prepared. The irrigating solutions used for biomechanical preparation were: saline solution, sodium hypochlorite 2,5% and glycolic extract of salvia 20%. The dual cure resin cement was used for cementation of pins. After cementation, specimens were sectioned to give 3 slices of approximately 2 mm each (cervical, middle and apical), which were submitted to mechanical push-out test. Were performed ANOVA and Tukey's test with a significance level of 5%, for the analysis of mechanical test. Comparing the thirds we observed that the only solution that presented statistical difference in the bond strength was sodium hypochlorite, which showed higher values for the middle and apical third compared with the cervical third, but when compared without taking into consideration the dental thirds, solutions studied showed no differences in bond strength. Therefore, it was concluded that the solutions studied can be used during endodontic treatment without causing harmful effects on the final adhesive restoration

Infiltração coronária microbiana em canais radiculares obturados pela técnica do cone único com diferentes cimentos endodônticos

With the emergence of new filling materials with different properties and behaviors, the approach of endodontic treatment must be readjusted so that the appropriate result can be achieved. New endodontic sealers include methacrylate resin-based, plant resin-based and the evolution of epoxy-based sealers. This study verified the behavior of new materials that presents controversial results in the literature, about coronal bacterial leakage. That for, 56 single-rooted human teeth were prepared in the direction crown-apex and filled with gutta-percha points with taper of 4% using the single cone technique. Roots were divided randomly into 4 groups according to the sealer (Apexit Plus, AH Plus, EndoREZ and Polifil). After filling, the roots were incorporated in a leakage model, which upper chamber contained a suspension of Streptococcus mutans, and lower chamber a broth, leaving 3 mm of root apical portion immersed. Leakage was assessed for turbidity in lower chamber every day for 60 days. Survival analysis was performed using the nonparametric Kaplan- Meier method (p<0,05). All experimental groups presented leakage during the study’s period, however the maximum time achieve was 22 days. The medium time of leakage was: Apexit Plus 6,3 days, AH Plus 6,3 days and Polifil 5,1 days, but in EndoREZ all specimens infiltrated in the first day, presenting shorter capacity of impermeabilization compared to the other groups. Concluding that none of the sealers tested was able to prevent coronal bacterial leakage

Fácies, diagênese e arquitetura estratigráfica de reservatórios deltaico-lacustres da fase rifte (formação pendência), campo Serraria da Bacia Potiguar

Of the four lacustrine deltaic models, which were found in the Pendência formation, two are represented in the Serraria field. Respectively the deltaic models 1 and 3 shows the reservoir zones A and B. The Zone A is divided into six sub-areas. Each is representing a smaller cycle of development of sigmoidal lobes of deltaic front. Zone B produces in reservoirs of Model 3, or so called Full delta. The Zone B is formed by overlapping the deltaic plain system over the deltaic/prodeltaic front (model 1). This work uses the method of zooming with the aim to contextualize the geometric aspects of the sand bodies, highlighting the analysis of facies and diagenesis with help of pictures and testimonies of thin sections. The sigmoidal lobes of Zone A are fine to very fine sandstones, well sorted, with a arcosian composition.;practically with a weak compaction and cementation of a kind of film of clay (if very fine) and overgrowth feldspar (fine texture). This silicate phases are succeeded by cementation of poiquilotópica calcite, and after this a stage of dissolution, containing only regular permoporosity for this reservoir. Zone B has a combination of two types of deltaic plain reservoir. One is the rarest of distributary channel and the other the most common of lobes of crevasse. In the channel coarse to medium-grained and poor to moderate sorted sandstones are formed (tuning up), and with a lytic arcosiana nature. Rarely there are cements, including growth of feldspar and rhombohedral dolomite, which prevent a high permoporosity of the reservoir. In the crevasse lobes, the sandstones are laminated, fine and well sorted, arkosic, rarely with overgrowth feldspar and calcite poiquilotópica, and with a good intergranular permoporosity
