ABSTRACT Introduction: Many clinical failures involving the fiberglass post result from the detachment between the retainer, the root canal and the cement. Thus, the connections that cause a probability of these failures are essential for dentistry. Objective: To compare the efficiency of intracanal disinfection between alcohol and chlorhexidine in the context of minimizing fractures. Methods: The present systematic review registered in PROSPERO under the protocol CRD42021233516 based on a Medical Subject Headings strategy: “((Endodontics OR Root Canal Filling Materials OR Dental Materials) AND Chlorhexidine AND Ethanol AND Dental Bonding)” in the search engines PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase and Lilacs. Studies in Portuguese, English or Spanish were included, without restrictions regarding their methodology and year of publication. Articles that did not report an intracanal hygiene protocol before the procedure, without full publication and orthodontic research were excluded. Results: Six studies were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. In all, chlorhexidine was used for intracanal cleaning, comparing it with the other groups, and in 4 it was compared with alcohol and other groups. Discussion: The articles used different media and storage times and most used bovine teeth. There was no significant difference between any other characteristics regarding the increase in adhesiveness of the set. Conclusion: There is no difference between the use of alcohol or chlorhexidine as a disinfection method. However, a previous protocol must be established for longer treatment longevity.
摘要简介:许多涉及玻璃纤维桩的临床失败是由于固位器、根管和骨水泥之间的脱离。因此,导致这些故障的连接对牙科至关重要。目的:比较酒精和氯己定在减少骨折情况下的消毒效果。方法:本系统综述在PROSPERO上注册,编号为CRD42021233516,基于医学主题标题策略:“((牙髓学或根管填充材料或牙科材料)和氯己定、乙醇和牙科结合)”,检索引擎为PubMed、Scopus、Web of Science、Cochrane Library、Embase和Lilacs。包括葡萄牙语、英语或西班牙语的研究,不受其方法和出版年份的限制。未报道手术前管内卫生方案的文章,没有完整的出版物和正畸研究被排除在外。结果:根据纳入和排除标准共选择6项研究。其中,氯己定用于肛管内清洗,与其他组进行比较,4例与酒精和其他组进行比较。讨论:文章使用不同的介质和储存时间,大多数使用牛牙。在粘连性的增加方面,任何其他特征之间没有显著差异。结论:酒精消毒与氯己定消毒无明显差异。然而,为了延长治疗寿命,必须建立先前的方案。

ABSTRACT Molar incisor hypomineralization is an increasingly common condition in our population. This condition can have great impact on the esthetics, function, and well-being of the child. This paper reports a case of a young patient diagnosed with this condition affecting all the first permanent molars and lower incisors, particularly teeth 31 and 41. The molars were treated with direct resin restorations with cusp coating and the incisors aesthetic was restored with different techniques such as bleaching with sodium hypochlorite, micro-abrasion and resin restorations. This treatment plan aimed to restore the proper teeth function, treat the already existing hypersensitivity and algic complains and to improve the aesthetic of the anterior sector. The presented case shows a conservative approach to deal with the molar incisor hypomineralization condition with satisfactory results after 1-year follow-up.

ABSTRACT This study is a literature review on the contributions of active methodologies in Higher Education in the health area. From the reviewed literature (texts, articles and books), an academic essay was written, addressing ideas, reflections, literature citations and authors’ personal impressions on the theme. After analyzing the literature, it was realized that active methodologies despite being involved in the teaching-learning process for several years, still require that teachers and students widely appropriate their benefits. The implementation of this change will help in coping with the factors that have negatively interfered in higher health education. It is a challenge that needs to be embraced by teachers and students. Conclusions: Active teaching methodologies can be included in all teaching models and methods and aim to promote learning and expand the possibilities for students to develop their competencies.

ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of this study was to compare methods for in vitro diagnosis of pigmented pits and fissures on the occlusal surface. Methods: Forty-one human molars and premolars extracted with pigmentation in pits and fissures were used. The teeth were evaluated with artificial illumination for classification according to ICDAS, followed by fluorescent laser evaluation. For the radiographic evaluation, the teeth were positioned to obtain interproximal images, adopting the criterion of Rodrigues et al. 2008 for diagnosis of lesions. For histological evaluation, the teeth were sectioned in the mesiodistal direction in the occlusal sulcus region and evaluated in a 20-fold stereoscopic magnifying glass, using the criterion of Ekstrand et al. (1997) for evaluation. The methods were compared with the histological evaluation, obtaining values of accuracy, sensitivity and specificity regarding the response variables “presence / absence” of enamel caries. Results: When comparing visual inspection with histological analysis, 65.85% accuracy, 40% sensitivity and 90.48% specificity were observed with false positive and negative probability of 20% and 38.71%. When comparing the fluorescent laser with the histological analysis, the accuracy was 58.54%, sensitivity 70% and specificity 47.62%. Comparing the radiographic analysis with the histological analysis, it was obtained 53.66% accuracy, sensitivity of 42.11% and specificity of 73.68%. Conclusion: The ROC curve and the Yuden index showed that visual inspection presented the best combination of sensitivity and specificity than fluorescent laser and radiographic analysis for diagnosis, which represented the best method for detecting inactive carious lesions in enamel.
摘要目的:比较体外诊断牙合表面色素凹陷和裂缝的方法。方法:选取41颗牙槽沟色素沉着的人磨牙和前磨牙。根据ICDAS进行人工照明评分,再进行荧光激光评分。影像学评价采用Rodrigues et al. 2008诊断病变的标准,定位牙齿获得近端间图像。为了进行组织学评估,在咬合沟区中远端方向对牙齿进行切片,并在20倍立体放大镜下进行评估,评估标准为Ekstrand et al.(1997)。将这些方法与组织学评价进行比较,获得牙釉质龋存在/不存在的反应变量的准确性、敏感性和特异性。结果:肉眼检查与组织学分析相比较,准确率为65.85%,灵敏度为40%,特异性为90.48%,假阳性和阴性概率分别为20%和38.71%。荧光激光与组织学分析相比较,准确率为58.54%,灵敏度为70%,特异性为47.62%。x线分析与组织学分析比较,准确率为53.66%,灵敏度为42.11%,特异性为73.68%。结论:ROC曲线和Yuden指数显示,肉眼检查诊断牙釉质无活动性龋齿病变的灵敏度和特异性较荧光激光和x线片分析更好,是牙釉质无活动性龋齿病变的最佳诊断方法。

ABSTRACT Numerous pathogens, including SARS-CoV-2, can remain viable on surfaces over days, which favors cross-contamination. Preventive measures are essential to prevent infections and control the spread of COVID-19. Fox ruler is an essential device in the clinical planning of complete dentures and the contact with the patient’s oral fluids during handling is unavoidable. Despite its importance, the conventional polycarbonate Fox ruler is easily damaged in the sterilization process. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to propose the use of a disposable Fox ruler. The confection is carried out in a simple way with wooden toothpicks joined by cyanoacrylate glue, following the same shape as the conventional one, but with the additional advantage of being made in an individual size according to the upper edge. The proposed disposable Fox ruler makes it possible to obtain the parallelism of the upper wax roller with the bipupillary line and with the Camper plane. Therefore, the disposable device described in this article was able to perform the same functions as the conventional one, in a practical way, without risks of cross contamination and with low cost.

ABSTRACT The single-stranded ribonucleic acid coronavirus is the seventh known member of the Coronaviridae family to infect humans. The droplets and aerosols that are suspended in the air with the virus can be transmitted by contact with the oral, nasal and eye mucosa, which can cause severe acute respiratory syndrome. Due to the outbreak of the new coronavirus disease, the constant use of personal protective equipment by health professionals has become necessary, as the virus has a rapid and widespread spread. But, unexpectedly, the coronavirus outbreak brought another concern, the emergence of facial injuries due to the continuous and inappropriate use of these individual protectors, harming the health of these professionals. An alternative to alleviate and prevent such injuries would be the use of prophylactic creams and dressings in places where there is pressure caused by these equipment, as well as relieving the loads generated by them, at intervals that do not exceed 4 hours. Therefore, this literature review aimed to report the potential for the emergence of facial injuries caused by the continuous and inappropriate use of PPE, highlighting the most affected areas, the risks to the health of the professional, prevention and treatment, through the electronic consultation based on of data, PUBMED, SCOPUS and Bireme/BVS.

ABSTRACT Dental trauma is a common complication in general anesthesia, especially when using nasotracheal intubation during the classic laryngoscopy. Risk factors range from difficult intubation through difficult airways to occlusal changes in the patient, with incisors being widely affected by dental elements. Tooth avulsion is the most frequent type of trauma, followed by lateral dislocation and root fracture. Male patient, 39 years old, presented at the Emergency and Trauma Hospital in Caruaru/PE, a motorcycle accident victim with a bilateral jaw fracture. Given the need to fix fractures, the patient underwent a surgical procedure under general anesthesia. During laryngoscopy, heavy bleeding was observed in the oral cavity. After inspection, root fracture of lateral incisor and avulsion of right central incisor were noted. The avulsionated tooth was not found. An orthopedic image intensifier was used to locate the dental element in the thoracic region. However, it was not possible to determine its location. Therefore, an upper gastrointestinal (UGI) endoscopy was requested, and the dental element was in the digestive tract at the esophagus level. The tooth was removed, and the surgical procedure for osteosynthesis of bilateral mandible fracture was carried on. Dentoalveolar traumas induced by general anesthesia are frequent and require preventive measures since they can directly affect the patient’s physical, economic, and medical conditions, along with anesthesiologists and maxillofacial surgeon’s risk of receiving a civil lawsuit.

ABSTRACT Objective: The study and enactment of dental preventive measures, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, are necessary to prevent cross-infections between professionals and patients. The objective of this integrative review was to identify the COVID-19 preventive practices in dentistry. Methods: The electronic search was conducted on these databases: Pubmed / Medline, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Scopus, LILACS and Scielo, using the following descriptors and / or words: “Coronavirus disease 2019”; “Coronavirus 2019”; “Covid-19”; “2019-ncov”; “Sars-cov2”; “Dental practice”; “Dental care”; “Dentistry”; “Dental medicine” and “Oral medicine”. PRISMA was used as a reference for designing it. Results: A total of 11 articles were included and the preventive measures against COVID-19 were based on guidelines from health agencies and consisted of: perform only emergency treatments; reschedule patients with suspected disease; hand washing; disinfection of surfaces with 70% alcohol; testing dental professionals for the disease; use the N95 mask; disposable lab coats, and face shields. Children, in addition to the measures mentioned above, should routinely drink a lot of water and be provided with healthy diets. No study has evaluated the efficacy and effectiveness of these measures. There is a lack of scientific evidence on the preventive protocols adopted against COVID-19 in dentistry since preventive measures are recommended by health agencies. Conclusion: Consequently, professionals are recommended to follow the guidelines by these organizations until effective and efficient preventive protocols tailored to dentistry are established.
摘要目的:研究和制定应对新冠肺炎大流行的口腔预防措施,防止医护人员与患者之间的交叉感染。本综合综述的目的是确定牙科中的COVID-19预防措施。方法:在Pubmed / Medline、Web of Science、Cochrane Library、Scopus、LILACS和Scielo数据库中进行电子检索,使用以下描述词和/或词:“冠状病毒病2019”;“冠状病毒2019”;“Covid-19”;“2019 - ncov”;“Sars-cov2”;“牙科实践”;“牙科保健”;“牙医”;“牙科医学”和“口腔医学”。采用PRISMA作为设计参考。结果:共纳入11篇文章,针对COVID-19的预防措施基于卫生机构的指南,包括:只进行紧急治疗;重新安排疑似病人的就诊时间;洗手;用70%酒精消毒表面;对牙科专业人员进行疾病检测;使用N95口罩;一次性实验服和面罩。儿童除了采取上述措施外,还应经常大量饮水,并提供健康的饮食。没有研究评估过这些措施的功效和效果。由于预防措施是卫生机构建议的,因此缺乏关于牙科采用的COVID-19预防方案的科学证据。结论:因此,建议专业人员遵循这些组织的指导方针,直到针对牙科建立有效和高效的预防方案。

The objective of this integrative review was to identify the COVID-19 preventive practices in dentistry. Methods: The electronic search was conducted on these databases: Pubmed / Medline, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Scopus, LILACS and Scielo, using the following descriptors and / or words: “Coronavirus disease 2019”; “Coronavirus 2019”; “Covid-19”; “2019-ncov”; “Sars-cov2”; “Dental practice”; “Dental care”; “Dentistry”; “Dental medicine” and “Oral medicine”. PRISMA was used as a reference for designing it. Results: A total of 11 articles were included and the preventive measures against COVID-19 were based on guidelines from health agencies and consisted of: perform only emergency treatments; reschedule patients with suspected disease; hand washing; disinfection of surfaces with 70% alcohol; testing dental professionals for the disease; use the N95 mask; disposable lab coats, and face shields. Children, in addition to the measures mentioned above, should routinely drink a lot of water and be provided with healthy diets. No study has evaluated the efficacy and effectiveness of these measures. There is a lack of scientific evidence on the preventive protocols adopted against COVID-19 in dentistry since preventive measures are recommended by health agencies. Conclusion: Consequently, professionals are recommended to follow the guidelines by these organizations until effective and efficient preventive protocols tailored to dentistry are established.","PeriodicalId":30069,"journal":{"name":"RGO Revista Gaucha de Odontologia","volume":"65 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85192563","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ABSTRACT Despite being a benign tumor of the maxillofacial region, some cases of ameloblastoma can be categorized as malignant ameloblastoma (or metastasizing) when metastases occur. The aim of this study is to report a rare case of lung metastasis from mandibular ameloblastoma, in order to review its risk and analyze the main anatomic sites that can occur with this disease. The case of a 48-year-old woman is described. She presented a metastatic pulmonary ameloblastoma 7 years after the removal of a mandibular ameloblastoma. During routine exams, a tumor in the left lung was observed. It was asymptomatic, near to the mediastinum, measured 7x5.5 cm. Transthoracic needle biopsy revealed ameloblastoma with the same histological characteristics of the primary tumor. After radiotherapy, the patient presented regression of the tumor. The patient has been under follow-up for 5 years and there is no presence of tumor. Ameloblastoma is an aggressive tumor not only in the region of origin, but also in distant regions, mainly in cases of recurrence. Metastases can cause high rates of morbidity, a fact that requires early treatment.

ABSTRACT Tetralogy of Fallot is the most prevalent cyanotic congenital heart disease and it has a high mortality rate. The aim of this article was to provide a clinical case, describing the dental treatment of an infant patient with tetralogy of Fallot done at a hospital. The patient was a 7-year-old male, lived in a rural area with no previous diagnosis of this cardiopathy when he was attended to by a multidisciplinary team at University Hospital Ana Bezerra, at Santa Cruz, Northern Rio Grande, Brazil. After his medical appointment, the patient received a visit from the dental resident in Mother-Infant Health in his hospital room. During the dental exam, multiple carious lesions were found and there was an urgent need to reduce the risk of dental infection before the patient underwent heart surgery. The treatment started with a preventive approach, including oral hygiene instruction and behavior management. The treatment was completed using the atraumatic restorative technique, and a root tip was extracted. Antibiotic prophylaxis was administered before the extraction to minimize the risk of infectious endocarditis. After the dental treatment, the multidisciplinary team referred the patient for surgery to address the tetralogy of Fallot. The integration between the multidisciplinary residency and the medical team was important to reduce the risks of infectious endocarditis during the dental treatment, aiming to provide integral care to this patient.
