Introduction: Although it has been shown that the supportive periodontal therapy (SPT) is essential to maintain the results obtained by periodontal therapy, patient adherence to SPT is not usually satisfactory (4). The objective of this research is to explore the motivations in the adherence to periodontal maintenance of patients treated at Universidad Viña del Mar (UVM) during the year 2020. Material and Methods: A study based on the qualitative paradigm was carried out using a design based on discourse analysis through semi-structured interviews. A sample size of 10 participants was consolidated, by obtaining with them the saturation of data collected and of 4 main dimensions. Each interview was transcribed ad verbatim and later analyzed through the Atlas.ti 9 Software. Results: Four main categories or dimensions were created: Motivations of the patients to produce a change in their oral health; Information that the patients have regarding their oral health; Oral hygiene habits acquired after periodontal treatment; Situations that prevent adherence to periodontal treatment. Conclusion: The main motivations of patients to adhere to supportive periodontal therapy are related to the education and information they acquire in the first phase of periodontal treatment. Observing the changes during treatment, improving oral health, improving aesthetics and functionality, are other important motivations, as well as the patients’ fear of losing their teeth and the desire to educate their family.
导言:虽然有研究表明支持牙周治疗(SPT)对于维持牙周治疗所获得的结果至关重要,但患者对SPT的依从性通常并不令人满意(4)。本研究的目的是探讨2020年期间在universsidad Viña del Mar (UVM)接受治疗的患者坚持牙周维持的动机。材料与方法:采用半结构化访谈,采用基于话语分析的设计,以定性范式为基础进行研究。通过获得所收集数据的饱和度和4个主要维度,巩固了10名参与者的样本量。每次采访都被逐字记录下来,然后通过地图集进行分析。ti 9软件。结果:建立了四个主要类别或维度:患者改变口腔健康的动机;患者关于口腔健康的信息;牙周治疗后养成的口腔卫生习惯;妨碍坚持牙周治疗的情况。结论:患者坚持支持牙周治疗的主要动机与他们在牙周治疗第一阶段获得的教育和信息有关。观察治疗过程中的变化,改善口腔健康,改善美观和功能,是其他重要的动机,以及患者对失去牙齿的恐惧和教育家人的愿望。

Background: Numerous types of cancer are of substantial medical and social concern, posing a major challenge to modern medicine. Chemotherapeutic drugs include the use of nucleosides, which are composed of nucleic acid and sugar. Objective: This study aims to assess the impact of systemic chemotherapeutic drugs at a therapeutic dose on the wound healing process of the oral mucosa. Material and Methods: 30 healthy rats were randomly divided into two main groups based on the study material, 15 rats in each group. Group A (control) was given a single dose of normal saline (1ml/kg, intraperitoneal), and Group B (study) a single injection of gemcitabine (50 mg /Kg, intraperitoneal). After anesthesia, a full-thickness soft tissue incision (0.5 cm length) on the right side of the buccal mucosa was made in the animals of both groups. Each group was subdivided according to the time of sacrifice into 3, 7, 14 days after surgery, at the end of the experimental periods, specimens were collected for histopathological study, and samples of blood were obtained from retro-orbital venous plexus and collected in microfuge tubes and levels of antioxidant enzymes were measured by ELISA. The data were analyzed statistically at a 0.05 level of significance. Results: Gemcitabine delayed the onset of wound cascade (inflammation and re-epithelization) which lead to worsening healing of the oral tissue; it also resulted in a decrease of the antioxidant activity of glutathione peroxidase and catalase, as well as activated caspase 3, which induces cell apoptosis. Conclusion: Gemcitabine showed negative feedback on oral tissue wound healing through delayed wound healing cascade and by inducing apoptosis.

Objectives: To implement a dentin slice model of mesenchymal stem cells derived from dental tissues in a fibrin-agarose construct for dental pulp regeneration. Material and Methods: MSCs derived from different oral cavity tissues were combined with a fibrin-agarose construct at standard culture conditions. Cell viability and proliferation tests were assayed using a fluorescent cell dye Calcein/Am and WST-1 kit. The proliferation assay was evaluated at 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours. Also, we assessed the dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) cell morphology inside the construct with histological stains such as Hematoxylin and Eosin, Masson's trichrome, and Periodic acid–Schiff. In addition, we elaborated a tooth dentin slice model using a culture of DPSC in the fibrin–agarose constructs co-adhered to dentin walls. Results: The fibrin-agarose construct was a biocompatible material for MSCs derived from dental tissues. It provided good conditions for MSCs' viability and proliferation. DPSCs proliferated better than the other MSCs, but the data did not show significant differences. The morphology of DPSCs inside the construct was like free cells. The dentin slice model was suitable for DPSCs in the fibrin-agarose construct. Conclusion: Our findings support the dentin slice model for future biological use of fibrin-agarose matrix in combination with DPSCs and their potential use in dental regeneration. The multipotency, high proliferation rates, and easy obtaining of the DPSCs make them an attractive source of MSCs for tissue regeneration.

Introduction: The consumption of alcoholic beverages reduces the body's ability to deal with dangerous situations and exposes people to trauma. Objective: To determine the association between the consumption of alcoholic beverages and the characteristics of maxillofacial fractures treated at a Cuban university hospital in the context of COVID-19. Material and Methods: An observational, analytical, and cross-sectional study was carried out in the Maxillofacial Surgery unit at the “Carlos Manuel de Céspedes” General University Hospital during the year 2020. Prevalence ratios, 95% confidence intervals and p-values were obtained using generalized linear models. Results: In 58.23% of the cases, fractures were related to the consumption of alcoholic beverages. The fundamental etiology was interpersonal violence (47.75%), regardless of the consumption of alcoholic beverages. There was a prevalence of patients with nasal fractures (n=98; 55.06%), among which, 35.71% had consumed alcoholic beverages at the time of the trauma. Being male (p=0.005), the lack of university studies (p=0.007), the need for surgical treatment (p<0.001), the fractures of the zygomaticomaxillary complex (p=0.023), and the traumas that occurred during the weekends (p<0.001) or during the month of June (p=0.029) were factors associated with a higher frequency of fractures related to the consumption of alcoholic beverages. There was a lower frequency of fractures associated with alcohol consumption during the months of January (p=0.006) and March (p=0.001). Conclusion: Six out of ten cases were under the influence of alcoholic beverages. There was a greater number of young and male patients, mainly due to interpersonal violence.

Aim: To assess the effect of different mechanical surface treatments on flexural strength of repaired denture base. Material and Methods: Sixty bar-shaped specimens of heat-polymerized acrylic resin were fabricated, and divided into six groups (n=10). All specimens, except the positive control group (group PC), were sectioned into halves to create a 1-mm clearance. A negative control group with no surface treatment (group NC) was also considered. Other groups underwent different surface treatments: group Laser; treated with erbium: yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Er:YAG) laser, group APA; airborne-particle abrasion (APA), group APA plus Laser; a combination of laser and APA, and group Bur; bur grinding. After measuring surface roughness (Ra) with a profilometer, all sectioned specimens were repaired by auto-polymerizing acrylic resin, and thermocycled afterward. Three-point bending test was performed by a universal testing machine. Data were statistically analyzed (α=0.05). Results: The mean surface roughness of all experimental groups were significantly higher than that of group NC (p<0.05). The mean flexural strength of all groups was significantly lower than that of group PC (p<0.05). Group B had significantly higher flexural strength than the other surface-treated groups (p<0.05). Group Laser had significantly higher flexural strength than groups APA (p=0.043) and APA plus Laser (p=0.023). No significant difference was found between groups APA and APA plus Laser (p=0.684). Conclusion: All surface treatments increased the surface roughness and flexural strength compared with the untreated group. The highest flexural strength was observed in specimens treated by bur grinding and then laser, however, it was still significantly lower than intact specimens.
目的:探讨不同机械表面处理对义齿基托抗弯强度的影响。材料与方法:制作热聚合丙烯酸树脂棒状试样60个,分为6组(n=10)。除阳性对照组(PC组)外,所有标本均切成两半,留出1mm间隙。另设不作表面处理的阴性对照组(NC组)。其他各组进行不同的表面处理:激光组;铒钇铝石榴石(Er:YAG)激光处理,APA组;空气颗粒磨损(APA), APA +激光组;激光和APA的组合,以及Bur组;钻磨。用轮廓仪测量表面粗糙度(Ra)后,所有切片标本用自动聚合丙烯酸树脂修复,然后进行热循环。采用万能试验机进行三点弯曲试验。对数据进行统计学分析(α=0.05)。结果:各实验组的平均表面粗糙度均显著高于NC组(p<0.05)。各组平均抗弯强度均显著低于PC组(p<0.05)。B组小鼠抗弯强度显著高于其他表面处理组(p<0.05)。激光组的抗弯强度显著高于APA组(p=0.043)和APA + Laser组(p=0.023)。APA组与APA + Laser组间差异无统计学意义(p=0.684)。结论:与未处理组相比,所有表面处理均增加了表面粗糙度和抗弯强度。先磨后激光处理的试件抗弯强度最高,但仍明显低于未加工的试件。

Background: Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) would cause alterations in organs/systems of exposed individuals or their progeny. Objetive: To identify and analyze the main published findings on the effects of exposure to EDCs on teeth, cartilage, and bone. Material and Methods: Two databases were analyzed: Medline and Web of Science. Only observational studies analyzing the effect of EDCs on mineralized tissues published since 2006 were included in the study. Results: 25 articles were selected, most of them involving EDCs pesticides, plasticizers, or personal care products, highlighting organochlorine compounds, bisphenols, phthalates, dioxins, parabens, and perfluoroalkyls. Thirty-six per cent of the studies reported an accumulation of EDCs in teeth or bones, while 64% reported alterations in their development or morphology, mainly at the bone level, primarily affecting their mineral density and size, as well as that of the bones of exposed individuals or their progeny. The type of effect observed was related to the EDCs analyzed, and it seemed to depend on variables such as age, sex, ethnicity/race, and even the metabolic status of the individuals in the different species analyzed. No evidence associated with effects on cartilage was found. Conclusion: EDCs in the environment, at work, or at home, under different exposure routes, are capable of accumulating in teeth and bone, particularly affecting the latter. It is necessary to study the effect of EDCs on mineralized tissues in agro-industrial areas, especially on teeth.
背景:内分泌干扰物(EDCs)会引起个体或其后代器官/系统的改变。目的:对已发表的有关暴露于EDCs对牙齿、软骨和骨骼影响的主要研究结果进行鉴定和分析。材料与方法:分析Medline和Web of Science两个数据库。该研究仅包括自2006年以来发表的分析EDCs对矿化组织影响的观察性研究。结果:25篇文章被选中,其中大部分涉及EDCs农药、增塑剂或个人护理产品,重点是有机氯化合物、双酚类、邻苯二甲酸酯、二恶英、对羟基苯甲酸酯和全氟烷基。36%的研究报告了EDCs在牙齿或骨骼中的积累,而64%的研究报告了它们的发育或形态的改变,主要是在骨骼水平,主要影响它们的矿物质密度和大小,以及暴露个体或其后代的骨骼。观察到的影响类型与所分析的EDCs有关,并且似乎取决于诸如年龄,性别,种族/种族等变量,甚至不同物种中个体的代谢状态。没有证据表明它对软骨有影响。结论:EDCs在环境、工作和家庭中不同暴露途径下均可在牙齿和骨骼中积累,尤其对后者影响较大。研究EDCs对工农区矿化组织尤其是牙齿的影响是十分必要的。

Purpose: To investigate the anesthetic effectiveness of buccal infiltration (BI) versus buccal plus lingual infiltration (BI+LI) of 4% articaine for intra-alveolar extraction of erupted mandibular molar teeth Material and Methods: Eighty patients were included in this prospective clinical study. They were randomly divided into 1 of 2 equal groups: the 1st group received BI of 4% articaine 1.8 ml and LI of 0.5 ml, while the 2nd group received 4% articaine 1.8 ml BI plus 0.5 ml LI of normal saline. Another 1.8 ml articaine BI was given if initial anesthesia was inadequate. Outcome variables included pain, which was rated by patients at 3 intervals using visual analogue scale, and lingual anesthesia and patients' satisfaction which were measured using 5-score verbal rating scale. Data analyses used were descriptive statistics, t test, χ2 test, and Pearson's correlation coefficient. P-value value less than 0.05 was considered significant Results: There were 46 females and 34 males and the mean age was 35.3 years. All outcome variables were comparable between the two study groups (p˃0.05). Anesthesia was successful in 78% and 88% of cases in the (BI) and (BI+LI) groups respectively with no significant difference (p=0.2392). The mean articaine volume used was 2.5 ml and 2.87 ml respectively without significant difference (p=0.090). Conclusion: The anesthetic efficacy of (BI) alone and (BI+LI) of 4% articaine was comparable. When given in an adequate dose, articaine (BI) alone could be justified as an anesthetic option for the intra-alveolar extraction of mandibular molar teeth.
目的:探讨4%阿替卡因颊部浸润(BI)与颊部+舌部浸润(BI+LI)在牙槽内拔牙中的麻醉效果。材料和方法:本前瞻性临床研究纳入80例患者。随机分为2组,第一组给予4%阿替卡因1.8 ml BI + 0.5 ml LI,第二组给予4%阿替卡因1.8 ml BI + 0.5 ml生理盐水LI。如果初始麻醉不足,再给予1.8 ml阿替卡因BI。结果变量包括疼痛,患者使用视觉模拟量表以3个间隔对疼痛进行评分;舌麻醉和患者满意度采用5分口头评分量表进行测量。资料分析采用描述性统计、t检验、χ2检验和Pearson相关系数。结果:女性46例,男性34例,平均年龄35.3岁。两组间所有结局变量均具有可比性(p < 0.05)。(BI)组和(BI+LI)组麻醉成功率分别为78%和88%,差异无统计学意义(p=0.2392)。平均阿替卡因用量分别为2.5 ml和2.87 ml,差异无统计学意义(p=0.090)。结论:单纯(BI)与4%阿替卡因(BI+LI)麻醉效果相当。当给予足够剂量时,阿替卡因(BI)单独可以被证明是下颌磨牙牙槽内拔牙的麻醉选择。

Introduction: Chlorine, ethyl alcohol, and quaternary ammonium are disinfectants with antiviral activity against SARS-Cov2. However, there are no previous reports of their use and handling for cleaning and disinfection in dental offices. Objetive: To determine the use and management of disinfectants in critical and non-critical areas used by dentists in San Luis Potosí, Mexico, during the COVID-19 pandemic. Material and Methods: A validated cross-sectional survey was applied online to 100 dentists in San Luis Potosí between February and June 2021. Participants were informed about the handling of personal data according to the standard DOF regulations (DOF 07-05-2010). Results: A total of 100 dentists were included in the study, 63% female and 37% male, with a mean age of 26 years. The most widely used disinfectants during the pandemic in critical areas were Lysol® and 0.1% sodium hypochlorite in non-critical areas. Eighty-five percent of dentists know the adverse effects of inappropriate use of disinfectants, 72% did not have any sign or symptom associated with the use of disinfectants. The most used protection barrier was gloves (97%). Sixty-seven per cent of dentists disposed of disinfectant waste down the drain. Conclusion: Sodium hypochlorite and quaternary ammonium compounds and/or ethanol are used to clean non-critical and critical areas in dental offices. However, appropriate measures for their management are not adopted. It is necessary to implement educational strategies to improve the use and management of disinfectants in dental practice.

In Purpose: The fabrication technique can influence the mechanical properties of Cobalt-Chromium (Co-Cr) dental alloys. Hence, the present study aims to determine the corrosion resistance and thermal expansion of alloys manufactured using three contemporary techniques. Material and Methods: A total of nine specimens of Co-Cr alloy were prepared according to ISO 22674 by each one of the three manufacturing processes (three in each process); conventional casting, direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) and milling (MIL). All these specimens were tested for coefficient of thermal expansion and corrosion resistance. The data was tabulated and analyzed statistically. Results: The difference in the thermal expansion of alloys fabricated using three techniques was non-significant at almost all the temperatures from 50 ºC to 950 ºC (p>0.05), except 450 ºC and 600 °C. The polarization resistance of specimens manufactured using the conventional method was more compared to DMLS and MIL at pH 5 (Conventional>MIL>DMLS) (p<0.001). Conclusion: The thermal expansion behavior of alloys manufactured using the three selected techniques were similar, whereas, at acidic pH, the corrosion resistance of conventional and MIL were better than the DMLS.
