Implantes Platform Switching: longevidade e preservação óssea: revisão crítica da literatura

The concept of switching platform is the use of an implant by platform wider than the abutment. Recently, researches have shown that this type of dental implant design tends to offer a higher preservation of crestal bone when compared to the traditional pattern of bone loss. The present study aims to perform a critical review on the switching platform concept establishing possible advantages of the technique. A search was performed on Medline/Pubmed about the topic “dental implant” and “platform switching”, and after applying inclusion criteria 40 studies were selected. The literature on longevity present prospective studies that show less bone loss, studies in biomechanics exhibit better or similar stress distribution around the bone crest, however, is not yet defined the role of the biological width. Thus, studies of longevity, and randomized prospective studies are of a great relevance to be performed in order to confirm the benefits of this technique and to establish a protocol indication. It is possible, based on this literature review, to conclude that longitudinal and randomized studies show that the platform switching implants have longevity and less bone loss. Biomechanically, the technique is possible.

Ocorrência de reabsorção radicular no tratamento ortodôntico: revisão crítica da literatura

The root resorption is one of the possible sequels of greater complexity to the orthodontist, the difficulty of detection and be asymptomatic. The presence, during the orthodontic treatment, is linked to a multifactorial origin, a complex combination of biological activities, anatomical, physiological, genetic variables and mechanical forces. Thus, the aim of this study was perform to critical literature review related to root resorption in orthodontic movement. Were included articles published between 2004 to 2014, indexed in the PUBMED database. Used descriptors contained in the Mesh, being adopted as inclusion criteria: clinical trials in humans, only articles that had clear ideas and objective, articles with English language. The search strategy used resulted in 24 articles and after applied the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 11 articles remained. Based on the results of this study it was concluded that heavy forces of intrusion, inclination and torque leads to a greater degree of root resorption; its etiology is multifactorial, the periodic radiographic control during treatment is needed and further studies are suggested to identify more specifically the causes and risk factors for root resorption.

Projeto pedagógico e estrutura curricular de um curso de odontologia: análise crítica fundamentada na percepção acadêmica

Considering that the current pedagogical project for the Dentistry course at FOA-Unesp was structured in 2001, a year before the national resolution that introduced the new curricular guidelines for the dental field, the aim of this study was to analyze critically this document and assess the academic perception of the pedagogical project, as well as the current curricular structure. A previously tested and validated semi-structured questionnaire was used to obtain the needed information, and a documentary analysis was conducted. The questionnaire was drafted based on data from the National Curricular Guidelines (DCN) and Unified Health System (SUS) guidelines. The sample consisted of almost all the graduating students of 2007 (n = 61). Of these, 95% had no knowledge of the pedagogical project for the undergraduate course; 53% found the integration between the disciplines offered by the course insufficient; 66% pointed out that there was duplication of the revised contents; 41% said that the interdisciplinary relation was unsatisfactory, and 67.2% said they preferred the modular system of teaching. Furthermore, 55.7% of the students said that that the course does not fully cover the principles of completeness and resolution of actions, and 37.7% pointed out that clinical care was not humanized. As for the competence and skills needed to exercise the profession, the students admitted feeling secure about carrying out preventivecurative clinical actions, and feeling insecure about developing broad ranging actions, like managing and planning. Analysis of the documents showed a certain disagreement in the organization of the pedagogical project and the curricular structure, when confronted with the course of action set down by the National Curricular Guidelines. The data prove the urgent need to restructure the FOA-Unesp curriculum and confirm the importance of a continuous evaluation in higher education.

Programa de educação e prevenção em saúde bucal nas escolas: análise crítica de publicações nacionais

Objective: To conduct a survey on national databases about Oral Health Program (OHP) publications in schools, in the last eleven years. Material and Methods: A survey was conducted in two main bases of national publications in the field of dentistry: Bireme and Scielo. To start the research, it was used the articles theme/subject. In the search, it was used the keywords 'oral health education', 'programs and oral health and dentistry', 'programs and oral health and education'. Results: A total of 20 publications were selected. From these, seven (35%) had the aim to evaluate educational methods used in OHP, 12 (60%) evaluated the effectiveness of the OHP itself developed in the school and one (5%) reported the experience of OHP. Only two publications did not get positive results and the other eighteen obtained advantageous results. Conclusion: In the national scientific literature, there are few publications about the subject in question, suggesting that the successful experiences about OHP in schools must be published to be replicated in other parts of Brazil.

Circunferência da cintura ou abdominal? uma revisão crítica dos referenciais metodológicos

Embora haja consenso sobre a validade e facilidade do uso da antropometria na classificação da obesidade abdominal, ainda não existe consenso sobre a nomenclatura da medida e os sítios anatômicos para sua obtenção. Desta forma, o objetivo deste estudo foi analisar de forma crítica o uso da circunferência da cintura ou abdominal em adultos para aferição da obesidade abdominal. Foi realizada uma revisão sistemática a partir de busca em bases de dados indexadas MEDLINE (PubMed) e Scientific Eletronic Library Online (SciELO). Foram revisados artigos publicados no período compreendido entre 2003 e 2009. Quanto à nomenclatura, apesar dos National Institutes Health tratarem circunferência da cintura e abdominal como sinônimos, os pesquisadores internacionais, tem preferido o uso do termo circunferência da cintura. Quanto ao sítio anatômico para a medida, falta ainda consenso entre os pesquisadores e orientação da International Diabetes Federation (IDF). Considerando que os atuais pontos de corte para as populações de origem européia foram elaborados a partir dos sítios anatômicos estabelecidos pela OMS 1989, torna-se razoável a adoção desta referência. Sobre os pontos de corte, a proposta da IDF representa resultado de um consenso internacional e avalizado pela Sociedade Brasileira de Cardiologia.
