Treatment of patients with cleft lip and palate is completed with fixed prostheses, removable, total, implants and aims to restore aesthetics, phonetics and function and should be guided by the basic principles of oral rehabilitation, such as physiology, stability, aesthetics, hygiene and the expectations of the patient. In order to obtain longevity of a prosthetic rehabilitation, the periodontal and dental tissue as well as the biomechanics of the prosthesis are to be respected. The purpose of this article is to describe the types of prosthetics treatment, which are performed at HRAC/USP for the rehabilitation of cleft area in adult patients.

Background: Evidence to date shows that mast cells play a critical role in immune defenses against infectious agents, but there have been no reports about involvement of these cells in eliminating periodontopathogens. In this study, the phagocytic ability of mast cells against Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans compared with macrophages is evaluated. Methods: In vitro phagocytic assays were conducted using murine mast cells and macrophages, incubated with A. actinomycetemcomitans, either opsonized or not, with different bacterial load ratios. After 1 hour, cells were stained with acridine orange and assessed by confocal laser-scanning electronmicroscopy. Results: Phagocytic ability of murine mast cells against A. actinomycetemcomitans was confirmed. In addition, the percentage of mast cells with internalized bacteria was higher in the absence of opsonization than in the presence of opsonization. Both cell types showed significant phagocytic activity against A. actinomycetemcomitans. However, the percentage of mast cells with non-opsonized bacteria was higher than that of macrophages with opsonized bacteria in one of the ratios (1:10). Conclusions: This is the first report about the participation of murine mast cells as phagocytes against A. actinomycetemcomitans, mainly in the absence of opsonization with human serum. Our results may indicate that mast cells act as professional phagocytes in the pathogenesis of biofilmassociated periodontal disease

Periodontal disease (PD) is one of the most commonly known human chronic disorders. The relationship between PD and several systemic diseases such as diabetes mellitus (DM) has been increasingly recognized over the past decades. Objective The purpose of this review is to provide the reader with knowledge concerning the relationship between PD and DM. Many articles have been published in the English and Portuguese literature over the last 50 years examining the relationship between these two chronic diseases. Data interpretation is often confounded by varying definitions of DM, PD and different clinical criteria were applied to determine the prevalence, extent and severity of PD, levels of glycemic control and diabetes-related complications. Methods This paper provides a broad overview of the predominant findings from research conducted using the BBO (Bibliografia Brasileira de Odontologia), MEDLINE, LILACS and PubMed for Controlled Trials databases, in English and Portuguese languages published from 1960 to October 2012. Primary research reports on investigations of relationships between DM/DM control, PD/periodontal treatment and PD/DM/diabetes-related complications identified relevant papers and meta-analyses published in this period. Results 7This paper describes the relationship between PD and DM and answers the following questions: 1- The effect of DM on PD, 2- The effects of glycemic control on PD and 3- The effects of PD on glycemic control and on diabetes-related complications. Conclusions The scientific evidence reviewed supports diabetes having an adverse effect on periodontal health and PD having an adverse effect on glycemic control and on diabetes-related complications. Further research is needed to clarify these relationships and larger, prospective, controlled trials with ethnically diverse populations are warranted to establish that treating PD can positively influence glycemic control and possibly reduce the burden of diabetes-related complications.

FUNDAMENTO: A felipressina foi adicionada ao anestésico local para aumentar a duração do efeito anestésico e reduzir a toxicidade nos procedimentos dentários. No entanto, o efeito sobre a pressão arterial é incerta, e isso pode ser altamente relevante no tratamento dentário de pacientes hipertensos. OBJETIVO: Investigar o efeito da felipressina sobre a pressão arterial em pacientes hipertensos com pressão arterial controlada. MÉTODOS: Foram estudados 71 indivíduos com essas características e com necessidade de tratamento periodontal. Após 10 minutos de repouso, a anestesia local (prilocaína) foi infiltrada com e sem adição de felipressina. Em seguida, uma raspagem subgengival profunda foi realizada. A pressão arterial foi medida por um equipamento oscilométrico automático (DIXTAL DX2010). Dez minutos após a administração do anestésico, o pico de ação anestésica foi gravado. O Inventário de Ansiedade Traço-Estado (IDATE) foi utilizado para avaliar o traço de ansiedade nos pacientes. RESULTADOS: A pressão arterial sistólica aumentou após a anestesia, independentemente da associação com felipressina, durante todo o procedimento dentário (p < 0,05), e essa resposta pode ser explicada, pelo menos em parte, pelos níveis de traço de ansiedade dos indivíduos. No entanto, um aumento adicional na pressão arterial diastólica foi observado quando a prilocaína foi associada a felipressina (p < 0,05), mas essa resposta não se alterou com os níveis de traço de ansiedade. CONCLUSÃO: A felipressina aumentou a pressão arterial diastólica de pacientes hipertensos com pressão arterial controlada. Pacientes com traço de ansiedade elevado apresentaram aumento na pressão arterial sistólica em alguns procedimentos, sugerindo que um aumento da pressão arterial também pode estar relacionado ao medo ou à ansiedade.

Neuraminidase was produced by 32.1% and 28.5% of Porphyromonas from dogs with and without periodontitis, respectively; and by 31.8% of bacteria from humans. The presence of neuraminidase in Porphyromonas spp. suggests that this enzyme can be involved with the pathogenesis of the periodontal disease, and the use of this assay to detect the neuraminidase production in oral Porphyromonas species is suggested.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of periodontal bacterial lysates on maturation and function of mature monocyte-derived dendritic cells (m-MDDCs) derived from individuals with chronic periodontitis (CP) or healthy periodontal tissue (HP). DESIGN: m-MDDCs derived from peripheral blood monocytes, cultured for 7 days in presence of interleukin (IL)-4 and granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF), were stimulated with lysates of Streptococcus sanguinis, Prevotella intermedia, Porphyromonas gingivalis, or Treponema denticola on day 4, and were then phenotyped. IL-10, IL-12 and IFN-gamma concentration in the supernatant of cultures were measured. RESULTS: Expression of HLA-DR was lower in bacterial-unstimulated mature m-MDDC from CP compared to HP (p=0.04), while expression of CD1a and CD123 were higher in CP. The expression pattern of HLA-DR, CD11c, CD123, and CD1a did not change on bacterial stimulation, regardless of the bacteria. Stimulation with P. intermedia upregulated CD80 and CD86 in CP cells (p≤0.05). Production of IL-12p70 by bacterial-unstimulated m-MDDCs was 5.8-fold greater in CP compared to HP. Bacterial stimulation further increased IL-12p70 production while decreasing IL-10. Significantly more IFN-gamma was produced in co-cultures of CP m-MDDCs than with HP m-MDDCs when cells were stimulated with P. intermedia (p=0.009). CONCLUSIONS: Bacterial-unstimulated m-MDDC from CP exhibited a more immature phenotype but a cytokine profile biased towards proinflammatory response; this pattern was maintained/exacerbated after bacterial stimulation. P. intermedia upregulated co-stimulatory molecules and IFN-gamma expression in CP m-MDDC. These events might contribute to periodontitis pathogenesis

Periodontal diseases, highly prevalent disease in worldwide population, manifest primarily in two distinct entities: plaque-induced gingivitis and periodontitis. Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized of different levels of collagen, cementum, and alveolar bone destruction. Recent experimental studies demonstrated anti-inflammatory and antirreabsortive effect of antihypertensive agents of the angiotensin II receptor blockers class on periodontal disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of azilsartan (AZT), a potent inhibitor of the angiotensin II receptor which has minimal adverse effects on bone loss, inflammation, and the expression of matrix metallo proteinases (MMPs), receptor activator of nuclear factor kB ligand (RANKL), receptor activator of nuclear factor kB (RANK), osteoprotegerin (OPG), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and cathepsin K in periodontal tissue in a rat model of ligature-induced periodontitis. Male Wistar albino rats were randomly divided into 5 groups of 20 rats each: (1) nonligated, water; (2) ligated, water; (3) ligated, 1 mg/kg AZT; (4) ligated, 5 mg/kg AZT; and (5) ligated, 10 mg/kg AZT. All groups were treated with water or AZT for 10 days. Periodontal tissues were analyzed by morphometric exam, histopathology and immunohistochemical detection of MMP-2, MMP-9, COX-2, RANKL, RANK, OPG, and cathepsin K. Levels of IL-1b, IL-10, TNF-a, myeloperoxidase (MPO), and glutathione (GSH) were determined by ELISA. Treatment with 5 mg/kg AZT resulted in reduced MPO (p˂0.05) and IL-1b (p˂0.05) levels and increased in Il-10 levels (p˂0.05). It was observed a reduced expression of MMP-2, MMP-9, COX-2, RANK, RANKL, cathepsin K, and a increased expression of OPG in the animals subjected to experimental periodontitis and threated with AZT (5 mg/kg). Conclusions: These findings suggest an anti-inflammatory and anti-reabsortive effects of AZT on ligature-induced periodontitis in rats.

Periodontal disease is a chronic inflammatory condition primarily caused by bacteria in dental biofilm, which interact with the host, thus determining the nature of the resulting disease. Despite the wide knowledge about the pathogenesis of these diseases, the exact composition of the T cell profile during the active phase of the disease (Th1, Th2 or Th17) remains unknown. This study aimed to evaluate by immunohistochemical expression, the presence of the markers (IL-17, IL-23 and RORγt), involved in Th17 response in clinically healthy gingiva cases (n = 32), biofilm-induced gingivitis (n = 30), chronic periodontitis (n = 32) and aggressive periodontitis (n = 25), in order to analyze if the expression and/or distribution of these molecules in lymphocytes and macrophages, present in the inflammatory infiltrate of periodontal tissue, influences the tissue destruction observed in these diseases. The morphological analysis of cases was performed which assessed the intensity of the inflammatory infiltrate in mild, moderate and intense. For each case, in the area with the most representative immunostaining, 5 fields were chosen and analyzed, both for the intensity of the inflammatory infiltrate as for the quantity of immunostained cells, based on predetermined scores: score 0 (absence of inflammatory infiltrate/immunostaining), score 1 (the infiltrate/immunostaining covered less than 25% of the field area), score 2 (the infiltrate/immunostaining occupied between 25 and 50%) and score 3 (infiltrate/immunostaining present in over 50% of the field area). From this, a median was generated representing each case. The intensity of the inflammatory infiltrate correlated with the disease progression, in other words, it was crescent from clinically healthy gingiva to aggressive periodontitis (P <0.001). It was detected the presence of IL-17, IL-23 and RORγt in most of the evaluated cases and the number of immunostained cells correlated with the intensity of the inflammatory infiltrate (P <0.001) and with the clinical parameters analyzed (P <0.001), showing a positive correlation, mainly moderate. Aggressive periodontitis showed a higher percentage of immunostaining for all markers in relation to other clinical conditions assessed, suggesting a possible association of these markers with the progression of this disease, in which the higher the loss of periodontal support, the greater the amount of inflammatory infiltrate and larger the number of immunostained cells.

Objective: To perform a long-term clinical evaluation of the periodontium of removable parti al denture (RPD) wearers, comparing the direct pillar teeth of tooth-supported and toothtissue supported RPDs. Method: Fifty patients with mean age of 45 years were enrolled in the study. The individuals were examined by a single examiner at the moment of denture installation and after 3, 6, 9 and 12 months. In each exam, the following parameters were verified: gingival recession (GR), probing depth (PD), plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI) e amount kerati nized mucosa (KM). All patients received oral hygiene instructions and prophylaxis and, when necessary, scaling and root planing. An analysis from the confidence interval was done to evaluate the endpoints regarding the type of denture in the direct pillar group. Results: The tooth-tissue supported dentures showed significantly higher GR, GI and PI values, and significantly lower KM values. Over time, neither of the types of denture presented statistically significant difference from the initial to the final examination for the parameters GR, PD, KM and GI, while the PI was significant only for the tooth-supported dentures. Conclusion: Pillar teeth adjacent to free ends presented a less favorable periodontal conditi on than the pillar teeth adjacent to intercalated spaces. However, the use of RPD did not aggravate the initial condition, after a follow-up period of 12 months. The findings of the study indicate that, within 1 year, there were no significant differences between the direct pillars of the toothsupported and tooth-ti ssue supported dentures, and suggest the need of professional follow up for a longer period.
