RESUMO

Objetivo: Determinar la incidencia de complicaciones de la técnica anestésica Spix en procedimientos odontológicos a pacientes atendidos en la clínica de la Universidad Andrés Bello (UNAB). Material y Métodos: Se analizó a 37 pacientes que fueron atendidos por alumnos de cuarto y quinto año de la clínica odontológica, a los cuales se le realizó la técnica anestésica Spix para realizar el procedimiento odontológico. Se consignó mediante la observación la presencia de formación de hematomas intraorales en el sitio de punción, rotura de la aguja, cantidad de tubos de solución anestésica inyectados, presencia de dolor a la inyección de solución anestésico y la presencia o no de parálisis facial. Mediante la recolección de datos y posterior encuesta a los participantes se consignó la presencia de trismus al día siguiente de la atención y parestesia persistente al día siguiente de la atención. Resultados: De 37 pacientes estudiados que recibieron la técnica anestésica Spix, 6 presentaron hematoma intraoral (16,2%), ninguno reportó rotura de la aguja, 1 presentó parálisis facial (2,7%), 1 presentó parestesia persistente al día siguiente (2,7%), 12 presentaron trismus posterior a la inyección (32,4%). El rango de dolor reportado fue entre 1 y 4 según la escala EVA. Conclusión: Hay una baja incidencia de las complicaciones asociadas a la técnica anestésica Spix en la clínica odontológica de la UNAB, siendo el trismus la complicación más frecuente. Se necesita un mayor número de muestra para entender mejor esta realidad.


Objective: To determine the incidence of complications of the Spix anesthetic technique in the dental procedures of patients attended at the Andrés Bello University dental clinic. Material and Methods: 37 patients who were cared for by fourth- and fifth-year students from the dental clinic of the Andrés Bello University were analyzed, who underwent the Spix anesthetic technique to perform the dental procedure. The presence of intraoral hematoma formation at the puncture site, needle breakage, number of injected anesthesia tubes, presence of pain upon injection of anesthetic and the presence or not of facial paralysis were recorded. Through data collection and subsequent survey of the participants, the presence of trismus was recorded the day after care. Results. Of the 37 cases of patients studied who received the Spix anesthetic technique, 6 had intraoral hematoma (16.2%), no needle break was reported, 1 had facial paralysis (2.7%), 1 had persistent paresthesia at the next day (2.7%), 12 presented trismus after the injection (32.4%), the pain range was between 1 and 4 according to the VAS scale. Conclusion. There is a low incidence of complications associated with the Spix anesthetic technique in the Andrés Bello University dental clinic, trismus being the most frequent (32.4%). A larger sample number should be needed to better understand this reality.

RESUMO

RESUMO Objetivo investigar a eficácia da associação entre a fotobiomodulação de baixa frequência e a terapia fonoaudiológica tradicional no tratamento do trismo, em pacientes tratados por câncer de boca ou orofaringe. Métodos ensaio clínico controlado, randomizado, longitudinal e prospectivo, realizado de acordo as normas da declaração CONSORT 2010. Para a coleta de dados, foi utilizado o questionário sociodemográfico, a avaliação clínica, a mensuração da abertura de boca por paquímetro, o protocolo de dor McGuill e o protocolo de qualidade de vida WHOQOL-Bref. A amostra foi composta por 30 participantes, de ambos os gêneros na faixa etária de 35-75 anos, divididos em dois grupos, controle e experimental, de forma controlada, mediante sorteio igualitário no que tange aos critérios de inclusão e exclusão. Resultados por meio dos dados analisados, observou-se que houve aumento da amplitude vertical de mandíbula em ambos os grupos, GC: p<0,005 e GE: p<0,001. Não houve correlação estatística entre os grupos na comparação da abertura de boca, p>0,19, assim como em relação à dor orofacial e à qualidade de vida, p= 0,72, ambas as avaliações após a intervenção fonoaudiológica, porém, com melhores resultados para o GE, p<0,001. Conclusão Conclui-se pela eficácia da intervenção fonoaudiológica tradicional e a associação com a fotobiomodulação de baixa frequência no tratamento do trismo. Para a dor orofacial e qualidade de vida, o tratamento associado é mais benéfico.


ABSTRACT Purpose to investigate the effectiveness of the association between low-frequency photobiomodulation and traditional speech therapy in the treatment of trismus in patients treated for oral or oropharyngeal cancer. Methods controlled, randomized, longitudinal and prospective clinical trial, carried out in accordance with the norms of the CONSORT 2010 declaration. For data collection, a sociodemographic questionnaire, clinical evaluation, measurement of mouth opening by caliper, the protocol of McGuill pain and the WHOQOL-Bref quality of life protocol. The sample consisted of 30 participants, of both genders, aged between 35-75 years, divided into two groups, control and experimental, in a controlled manner, through an equal draw with regard to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results through the analyzed data, it was observed that there was an increase in the vertical amplitude of the mandible in both groups, CG: p0.19, as well as in relation to orofacial pain and quality of life, p= 0.72, both assessments after the speech therapy intervention, however, with better results for the EG, p<0.001. Conclusion It is concluded that the traditional speech therapy intervention and its association with low-frequency photobiomodulation are effective in the treatment of trismus. For orofacial pain and quality of life, associated treatment is more beneficial.

RESUMO

Los terceros molares son piezas dentarias correspondientes a la dentición permanente y se encuentran por detrás de los segundos molares. Erupcionan entre los 18 y 27 años aproximadamente, tienen variedad de formas, anomalías y disposición diversa. Normalmente se encuentran total o parcialmente retenidos en el hueso maxilar. La retención es muy frecuente y afecta aproximadamente al 75% de la población. La causa principal es por la falta de espacio dentro de la boca. La patología derivada de la retención de un tercer molar puede generar diferentes alteraciones: abscesos, sinusitis, reabsorción de las raíces de los dientes adyacentes, caries del molar retenido y/o del segundo molar, úlceras en la mucosa contigua, podrían generar quistes, ameloblastomas y ulceraciones leucoqueratósicas que pueden degenerar en carcinomas, alteraciones nerviosas o vasomotoras: dolores faciales, trismus, y parálisis facial ipsilateral. Las extracciones profilácticas de terceros molares asintomáticos están justificadas cuando los terceros molares se encuentran bajo prótesis removible que puede estimular su erupción, molares semierupcionados que pueden generar pericoronitis, caries o problemas periodontales; pacientes que van a ser sometidos a radioterapia; cuando el diente incluido interfiera en una cirugía ortognática. Si el molar retenido presenta sintomatología por parte del paciente está aconsejada su extracción quirúrgica.


The third molars are dental pieces corresponding to the permanent dentition and are located behind the second molars. They erupt between the ages of 18 and 27 approximately, have a variety of shapes, anomalies, and diverse dispositions. They are normally fully or partially retained in the maxillary bone. Retention is very frequent and affects approximately 75% of the population. The main cause is due to the lack of space inside the mouth. The pathology derived from the retention of a third molar can generate different alterations: abscesses, sinusitis, resorption of the roots of adjacent teeth, caries of the retained molar and/or second molar, ulcers in the contiguous mucosa, could generate cysts, ameloblastomas and leukokeratotic ulcerations that can degenerate into carcinomas, nervous or vasomotor disorders: facial pain, trismus, and ipsilateral facial paralysis. Prophylactic extractions of asymptomatic third molars are justified when the third molars are under removable prosthesis that can stimulate their eruption, semi-erupted molars that can generate pericoronitis, caries or periodontal problems; patients who are going to undergo radiotherapy; when the included tooth interferes with orthognathic surgery. If the retained molar presents symptoms on the part of the patient, its surgical extraction is recommended.

RESUMO

RESUMEN INTRODUCCIÓN: El tétanos es una enfermedad que afecta el sistema nervioso. Su presentación clínica se caracteriza por espasmos musculares en respuesta a la liberación de la neurotoxina producida por la formación de esporas de la bacteria Clostridium tetani. DESCRIPCIÓN DEL CASO: Presentamos el caso de un hombre de 70 años que luego de una caída presentó una herida en la región ocular. Al ingreso se evidenciaron signos de infección local y contracción involuntaria en los músculos maseteros, con imposibilidad de apertura oral. Posteriormente, presentó insuficiencia respiratoria, contracciones generalizadas y necesidad de traslado a unidad de cuidado intensivo. Debido a que entre los diagnósticos diferenciales se encontraba la presencia de crisis epilépticas motoras, se hicieron estudios complementarios para descartar esta posibilidad. DISCUSIÓN: El diagnóstico del tétanos es clínico, es importante sospecharlo en pacientes con antecedentes de lesión en piel e inmunización inadecuada. Por su amplia presentación clínica, puede llevar a confusión con otras patologías. Entre los diagnósticos diferenciales están las crisis epilépticas, sin embargo, el tétano no cumple con las características semiológicas, no compromete el estado de conciencia y no progresa a estado epiléptico, asociado con la normalidad de estudios complementarios como las neuroimágenes, el estudio de líquido cefalorraquídeo y el registro electroencefalográfico. CONCLUSIÓN: El tétanos es una enfermedad altamente prevenible y un reto diagnóstico para el profesional de la salud por su amplio debut de síntomas. Por ello, en el abordaje diagnóstico es importante reconocer los diagnósticos diferenciales, teniendo como base la historia clínica, lo que permite un diagnóstico temprano y oportuno.


ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION: Tetanus is a disease that affects the nervous system and its clinical presentation is characterized by muscle spasms caused by the release of a neurotoxin produced by the formation of spores of the Clostridium tetani bacteria. CASE DESCRIPTION: We present the case of a 70-year-old man who after a fall, presented an injury to the ocular region. On admission, signs of local infection and involuntary contraction of the masseter muscles were evident, with impossibility of oral opening. Subsequently, he presented respiratory failure, generalized contractions and transfer to the intensive care unit, due to its similarity to convulsive events, pathology at the level of the central nervous system is suspected, for which it requires complementary studies and clinical analysis to rule it out. DISCUSSION: The diagnosis of tetanus is clinical, it is important to suspect it in patients with a history of skin lesions and inadequate immunization, due to its extensive clinical presentation, it can lead to confusion with other pathologies. Among the differential diagnoses are epileptic seizures, however, tetanus does not meet the semiological characteristics, does not compromise the state of consciousness and does not progress to status epilepticus, associated with the normality of complementary studies such as neuroimaging, cerebrospinal fluid study and registry electroencephalographic. CONCLUSION: Tetanus is a highly preventable disease and a diagnostic challenge for the health professional due to its wide onset of symptoms. That is why the diagnostic approach is important to recognize the differential diagnoses based on the clinical history, which allows an early and timely diagnosis.

RESUMO

Complicações pós-operatórias como edema, dor e trismo são comuns em cirurgias orais. Terapias, como o uso de analgésicos e anti-inflamatórios, são indicadas para estas complicações. No entanto, intervenções pré-operatórias podem ser alternativas. Desta forma, o presente estudo avaliou o efeito da dexametasona no edema, intensidade de dor e abertura de boca (trismo) no pós-operatório de retirada de terceiros molares inferiores. Pacientes (n=14, 9 mulheres) foram incluídos em um estudo clínico, cruzado, cego, randomizado, placebo-controlado e boca dividida. Pacientes receberam aleatoriamente medicação preemptiva (dexametasona 8mg, intramuscular, músculo masseter) ou placebo (soro fisiológico) uma hora antes da primeira cirurgia. O procedimento contralateral foi realizado 21 dias após. Avaliou se o edema e a abertura bucal nos momentos pré-operatórios e no 3º e 7º dias pós-operatórios, além de dor espontânea (imediatamente, 2 e 24 horas, 3 dias e 7 dias). Os dados foram analisados usando anova de medidas repetidas seguida do teste post hoc LSD de Fisher. Comparado ao placebo, a medicação reduziu edema (3 dias), dor (2 e 24 horas) e trismo (3 dias). Os resultados sugerem que o uso preemptivo da dexametasona intramuscular é capaz de aumentar o bem-estar dos pacientes submetidos a cirurgias orais, tendo o potencial de reduzir os custos pós-operatórios...

Postoperative complications such as edema, pain, and trismus are common in oral surgery. Therapies, such as the use of painkillers and anti inflammatory drugs, are indicated for the reversal of these complications. However, preoperative (preemptive) interventions can be alternatives. Thus, the present study aimed to evaluate the effect of dexamethasone on edema, pain intensity, and mouth opening (trismus) in the postoperative period of removal of impacted lower third molars. Patients (n = 14, 9 women) were included in a clinical, crossover, blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled, and divided mouth study. Preemptive mediation (dexamethasone 8mg, intramuscular, masseter muscle) or placebo (saline) was randomly given before the first surgery. The contralateral procedure was performed 21 days later. In the postoperative period, edema, mouth opening (preoperative, 3 and 7 days), and spontaneous pain (immediately, 2 and 24 hours, 3 days and 7 days) were analyzed. The data were analyzed using the one-way repeated measures ANOVA followed by Fisher's LSD post hoc. Compared to placebo, the medication reduced edema (3 days), pain (2 and 24 hours), and trismus (3 days). The results suggest that the preemptive use of dexamethasone is able to increase the well-being of patients undergoing oral surgeries, with the potential to reduce postoperative costs... (AU)

RESUMO

Abstract Third molar removal surgery usually comes accompanied by postoperative discomfort, which could be influenced by the surgical approach chosen. This scoping systematic review aimed at compiling the available evidence focused on the influence of flap design, including envelope flap (EF), triangular flap (TF), and modified triangular flap (MTF), on postoperative pain, swelling, and trismus, as primary outcome measures, and any result mentioning healing promotion or delay, as secondary outcome measure, after mandibular third molar extraction surgery. An electronic search, complemented by a manual search, of articles published from 1999 to 2020 was conducted in the Medline (PubMed), EMBASE and Web of Science databases including human randomized controlled trials, prospective, and retrospective studies with at least 15 patients. The risk of bias of the included studies was assessed either with the Cochrane's Risk of Bias tool or with the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. Every step of the review was performed independently and in duplicate. The initial electronic search recovered 2102 articles. After applying the inclusion criteria, 12 articles were included. For patient's perceived postoperative pain, TF and MTF frequently reported better results than EF. For swelling, the literature is divided, despite a trend favoring EF. For trismus, data showed that its occurrence is mostly associated with the duration of the surgery rather than with the chosen flap. For healing, the limited data is inconclusive. Finally, randomized studies showed a high risk of bias, whereas nonrandomized studies were mostly of good quality and low risk of bias. Although there was no clear consensus regarding the influence of different flap designs for third mandibular molar extraction on postoperative clinical morbidities; the surgeon's experience, estimated surgical difficulty, molar position and orientation, and surg ery duration should be considered when choosing among the different flap designs.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT Objective: To compare and assess the primary and secondary closure techniques following extraction of impacted third molars for post-operative complications. Material and Methods: In total, 30 patients ranging between 18-30 years of age and of either sex who had bilaterally impacted mandibular third molars were randomly selected. Split mouth study method was used so that the participants served as their own control. Group 1 consisted of primary closure of left mandibular impacted third molars and Group 2 consisted of secondary closure of right mandibular impacted third molars. Basement evaluations were recorded for each patient along with subjective and objective evaluations for postoperative 7 days. Data analysis was carried out by SPSS 17.0 software using Mann-Whitney U test, Wilcoxon matched-pairs test and t-test. A p-value ≤ 0.05 was assigned as statistically significant. Results: When compared to group 1, group 2 revealed statistically less pain and swelling following the secondary closure of wound from day 1 to 7. There was a significant improvement in mouth opening in Group 2 at day 1 (p=0.0005) and at day 7 (p=0.00001). Conclusion: Secondary wound closure after disimpaction of mandibular third molar results in better postoperative recovery than primary closure.

RESUMO

Abstract The effects of the number of photobiomodulation (PBM) sessions on the postoperative inflammatory process remain controversial. The current literature comparing single and repeated PBM sessions is limited. Objective This study aimed to compare the effects of single and repeated PBM sessions, applied at two different therapeutic wavelengths within the infrared spectrum, on postoperative inflammatory response after impacted third molar tooth extraction. Methodology This randomized, double-blind clinical study included 40 patients with bilateral impacted mandibular third molars (80 teeth). The patients were divided into two groups each including 20 subjects (40 teeth) to receive either single-session laser at 810 nm (20 teeth) and 940 nm (20 teeth) immediately after the surgery or repeated laser sessions at 810 nm (20 teeth) and 940 nm (20 teeth) (immediately after the surgery and on postoperative Day 1). Lasers at 940 nm (power density 0.5 Watt/cm2, energy density 4 J/cm2 for a time until the cumulative energy on the device screen reaches 50 J from 0 J, in continuous mode, spot size 2.8 cm2) and at 810 nm (power density 0.14 Watt/cm2, energy density 4 J/cm2, for 30 seconds, in continuous mode, spot size 2.1 cm2) were applied intra- and extra-orally. Pain, swelling, and trismus were evaluated postoperatively. Results No significant differences were determined between the groups on the evaluated parameters (p>0.05). Conclusion Within the study limitations, in PBM, the effects of 810 nm and 940 nm and those of single and repeated applications were similar regarding pain, swelling and trismus. Immediate postoperative PBM could be preferred to repeated applications performed by point application within a 24-hour period.

RESUMO

Abstract Introduction: Trismus has been considered a late complication of cancer treatment. It can occur prior to treatment, mainly caused by tumor invasion or muscle spasms induced by the presence of the tumor. Objective: In this study, we evaluated the incidence of trismus and its effect on oral health in patients with malignant neoplasms of the oral cavity before performing the cancer treatment. Methods: This review was carried out via interviews, visual clinical inspection and objective measurement of maximal mouth opening in 35 consecutive patients. Trismus was defined as a maximal mouth opening <35 mm. Results: Trismus was observed in 15 patients, with a total incidence of 42%. A high rate of tooth loss was recorded, and trismus association with tooth loss was statistically verified using the Chi-square and Fisher's exact tests, the t-student test and Mann-Whitney non-parametric test. All tests were performed at p < 0.05. Conclusion: Edentulous patients are eight times more likely to have trismus compared to patients that are partially and fully dentate. Trismus was demonstrated to be correlated with tooth loss; however other oral health conditions were not shown to be a modifying factor.


Resumo Introdução: O trismo tem sido considerado uma complicação tardia do tratamento do câncer, pode ocorrer antes do tratamento, causado principalmente por invasão tumoral ou espasmos musculares induzidos pela presença do tumor. Objetivo: Avaliar a incidência do trismo e seu efeito sobre a saúde bucal em pacientes com neoplasias malignas da cavidade bucal antes de se submeterem ao tratamento do câncer. Método: Esta revisão foi realizada por meio de entrevistas, inspeção clínica visual e mensuração objetiva da abertura bucal máxima em 35 pacientes consecutivos. O trismo foi definido como abertura bucal máxima < 35 mm. Resultados: O trismo foi observado em 15 pacientes, com uma incidência de 42%. Uma alta taxa de perda dentária foi registrada e a associação do trismo com a perda dentária foi verificada estatisticamente com os testes qui-quadrado, exato de Fisher, t de Student e não paramétrico de Mann-Whitney. Todos os testes foram realizada com p < 0,05. Conclusão: Pacientes edêntulos são oito vezes mais propensos a ter trismo do que os pacientes parcial e totalmente dentados. O trismo demonstrou estar correlacionado com a perda dentária. Entretanto, as outras condições de saúde bucal não se mostraram um fator modificador.

RESUMO

Introdução: as infecções odontogênicas tem como principal origem a necrose pulpar com invasão bacteriana no tecido periapical e periodontal, podendo levar à formação de quadros de celulite e posteriormente de abscesso, além disso, possuem o potencial de disseminar-se pelos espaços faciais profundos e comprometer a vida do paciente. Complicações graves, decorrentes dos quadros de infecções odontogênicas, podem ocorrer, se o tratamento instituído não for adequado, como: trombose do seio cavernoso, abscesso cerebral, mediastinite e até óbito. Objetivo: discutir o manejo das infecções odontogênicas disseminados em espaços faciais profundos, através do relato de caso clínico. Caso clínico: paciente de 52 anos, portador de diabetes mellitus tipo 2, com infecção odontogênica, no exame clínico inicial apresentava trismo, disfonia, dispneia, disfagia, hiperemia e edema em lado esquerdo da face, envolvendo os espaços canino, bucal, submandibular e cervical além de unidades dentárias com foco infeccioso. Em exame de tomográfica computadorizada, observou-se desvio da via área, presença de um grande volume de gás e de lojas de infecção. Optou-se como tratamento a remoção dos focos dentários e drenagem intraoral foi realizada pela equipe da CTBMF com anestesia local e posteriormente drenagem sob anestesia geral, intubação com uso de fibroscopia pela equipe de cirurgia cabeça e pescoço. Considerações finais: as infecções odontogênicas que envolvem espaços faciais profundos devem ser tratadas com urgência e o tratamento de escolha dessa condição deve ser remoção imediata do foco infeccioso, exploração e drenagem rápida e agressiva dos espaços faciais envolvidos e associação com antimicrobianos de amplo espectro com características bactericidas.(AU)


Introduction: the main origin of odontogenic infections is pulp necrosis with bacterial invasion in the periapical and periodontal tissue, which may lead to the formation of cellulitis and later abscess, besides having the potential to spread to the deep facial spaces and compromise the patient's life. Severe complications from dental infections may occur if the treatment is not appropriate, such as cavernous sinus thrombosis, brain abscess, mediastinitis and even death. Objective: to discuss the management of disseminated odontogenic infections in deep facial spaces through a case report. Case report: a 52-year-old patient with type 2 diabetes mellitus, with odontogenic infection, presented at the initial clinical examination trismus, dysphonia, dysphagia, dysphagia, hyperemia and edema on the left side of the face involving the canine, buccal, submandibular and cervical spaces. of dental units with infectious focus. CT scan revealed deviation of the airway, presence of a large volume of gas and infection stores. The treatment was chosen to remove dental foci and intraoral drainage was performed by the CTBMF team under local anesthesia and subsequently under general anesthesia drainage, intubation with fibroscopy by the head and neck surgery team. Final considerations: odontogenic infections involving deep facial spaces should be treated urgently and the treatment of choice for this condition should be immediate removal of the infectious focus, rapid and aggressive exploration and drainage of the involved facial spaces and association with broad-spectrum antimicrobials with bactericidal characteristics.(AU)

RESUMO

Abstract Crisponi syndrome is a rare and severe heritable disorder characterised by muscle contractions, trismus, apnea, feeding troubles, and unexplained high fever spikes with multiple organ failure. Here we report perioperative care for endoscopic gastrostomy of a 17 month-old female child with Crisponi syndrome. Temperature in the surgery room was strictly monitored and maintained at 19ºC. The patient was exposed to both inhaled and intravenous anesthetic agents. Surgical and perioperative periods were uneventful. Episodes of fever in Crisponi syndrome arise from CRLF1 mutation, which differs from the physiological pathway underlying malignant hyperthermia.


Resumo A Síndrome de Crisponi é uma condição clínica hereditária grave e rara caracterizada por contrações musculares, trismo, apneia, distúrbios na alimentação, picos de febre alta e inexplicável, e falência de múltiplos órgãos. Descrevemos o cuidado perioperatório de paciente pediátrica com 17 meses de idade, portadora da Síndrome de Crisponi, submetida a gastrostomia endoscópica. A temperatura da sala de cirurgia foi cuidadosamente monitorizada e mantida a 19ºC. A paciente foi submetida a agentes anestésicos inalatórios e venosos. O cuidado cirúrgico e perioperatório desenvolveram-se sem incidentes. As crises de febre na Síndrome de Crisponi originam-se de mutação no gene CRLF1, o que as diferenciam do mecanismo fisiopatológico da hipertermia maligna.

RESUMO

Abstract The sense of coherence (SOC) is a measure of global orientation regarding the ability of individuals to cope with stressful situations. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the association between SOC and quality of life (QoL) and clinical and sociodemographic characteristics among survivors of oral, oropharynx, hypopharynx, or larynx cancer. A cross-sectional study was conducted with 90 cancer patients in follow up at the Santa Maria University Hospital in southern Brazil who had completed conformal 3D radiotherapy at least three months earlier. QoL was assessed using the University of Washington Quality of Life (UW-QOL) questionnaire and SOC was measured using the Brazilian version of the SOC-13 questionnaire. Data on socio-demographic characteristics and the disease were obtained from patients' charts. Oral clinical conditions were also evaluated. Associations between exploratory variables and mean UW-QOL scores were evaluated through Poisson regression and the results were presented as rate ratios (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). The mean overall UW-QOL score was 67.90 (± 18.71). Moderate and high SOC scores were associated with higher mean UW-QOL scores, that is, individuals with a stronger SOC demonstrated better QoL, (p < 0.05). Regarding the clinical variables, individuals with advanced stage cancer and those with hyposalivation and trismus had poorer QoL (p < 0.05). Patients with a greater SOC reported a better quality of life. Our findings show the importance of focusing on psychosocial factors, which can alleviate the impact caused by the disease and improve the QoL of these patients.

RESUMO

Abstract Objective Our study seeks to investigate the effectiveness of kinesio taping (KT) on postoperative morbidity compared to placebo and control groups after impacted third molar surgery. Methodology Sixty patients with impacted mandibular third molar were included in this prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical study. After surgical extraction of the impacted tooth, patients were allocated into three groups (20 patients each): group 1 received KT (kinesio), group 2 received placebo taping (placebo), and group 3 received no taping (control). The groups were compared regarding facial swelling, pain and trismus. Swelling was evaluated using a tape measuring method. Pain was assessed by a visual analog scale and the number of analgesic tablets taken. Trismus was determined by measuring maximum mouth opening. Results In the KT group, all parameters reduced significantly on 2nd and 4th postoperative days compared to other groups; however, placebo and control groups revealed comparable outcomes. On 7th day, all groups showed comparable results. Conclusions The KT application is an effective method for reducing morbidity after impacted mandibular third molar surgery. However, placebo taping is not as effective as proper taping. Placebo taping shows similar results compared to no taping regarding facial swelling percentage, pain and trismus.

RESUMO

Resumo Introdução O trismo é uma restrição na abertura bucal de até 3,5 cm e é um dos efeitos colaterais mais comuns da radioterapia na região da cabeça e pescoço. Tal condição afeta funções cotidianas simples, como: mastigar, deglutir, falar e até exercer higiene bucal, acarretando danos não só físicos como emocionais aos indivíduos acometidos. Evidencia-se assim a necessidade da busca de tratamentos que revertam ou atenuem tal quadro. Objetivo O objetivo do estudo é investigar o comportamento dos músculos masseter e supra-hioideos durante a deglutição antes e após o crioalongamento associado à massoterapia, em pacientes pós-neoplasia bucal com trismo devido à radioterapia. Material e método A amostra final foi constituída por oito sujeitos, com faixa etária entre 40 e 64 anos, gêneros masculino e feminino, com abertura bucal menor ou igual a 3,5 cm. Para a realização da pesquisa, foram realizadas duas avaliações eletromiográficas, uma no início e outra no final do tratamento. Com 15 atendimentos, uma vez por semana, com manobras de crioalongamento associado à massoterapia nos músculos masseter e grupo muscular dos supra-hioideos. Resultado Após a intervenção com crioalongamento e massoterapia, foi observada diferença significativa apenas no comportamento do grupo muscular dos supra-hioideos, fato não constatado no músculo masseter. Conclusão Foi encontrada diferença significativa no comportamento do grupo muscular supra-hioideo e melhora na abertura de boca dos sujeitos. Contudo, os resultados deste estudo devem ser confirmados em casuísticas maiores.


Abstract Introduction Trismus is a restriction in the buccal opening up to 3.5cm and is one of the most frequent side effect of head and neck regions radiotherapy. This condition affects simple daily activities such as chewing, swallowing speaking and even buccal hygiene, leading to not only physical but emotional damages to the subjects. This puts in evidence the need to find treatments to revert or soften this condition. Objective This study investigates the behavior of masseter and suprahyoid muscles during swallowing before and after the cryotherapy associated to the massage in patients post buccal neoplasm with trismus due to radiotherapy. Material and method The final sample was composed of 8 subjects, aged between 40 an 64 years, both female and male with buccal opening equal to or smaller than 3.5cm. Two electromyographic evaluations were conducted to perform this research, one in the beginning and one in the end of the treatment. The study was composed of 15 treatment sessions, once a week, consisting of cryotherapy maneuvers and massage in masseters and supra-hyoids muscle groups. Result There was a significant difference in the behavior of the supra-hyoid muscles group, this fact was not observed in the masseter muscles group. Conclusion The study concluded that after the intervention with cryotherapy and massage sessions, was observed a significant difference in the behavior of the upperhyoid muscles group and an improvement of the subjects' mouth opening capacity. However, the results of this study must be confirmed in a larger sample size.

RESUMO

O objetivo desse ensaio clínico randomizado (split mouth) foi avaliar um protocolo de laser de baixa potência, no controle de dor, edema e trismo após extração de terceiros molares retidos. Foram selecionados 13 pacientes com terceiros molares inclusos bilateralmente e com posição semelhante foram utilizados para um estudo de boca dividida. Os pacientes foram distribuídos de forma randomizada, conforme o tratamento administrado, Lado Laser: dose única de laser de baixa potência no comprimento de onda 810 nm, 6 J (100 mW, 60s/ponto); e lado sham: simulação de aplicação do laser. Após a cirurgia realizada, os pacientes foram acompanhados três dias consecutivos para avaliação da 1) Dor, através da média de consumo de analgésico de resgate (NAR), Escala Visual Analógica (EVA) nos períodos de 0h, 1h, 2h, 3h, 12h, 24h, 48h, 72h e média do tempo de consumo do primeiro analgésico; 2) Edema, através da EVA, e média obtidas das medidas faciais lineares obtidas entre o ângulo mandibular até canto do olho, do tragus até comissura labial e do tragus até mento (porção central) nos períodos de 0h, 24h, 48h, 72h; 3) Trismo, através da média de abertura bucal nos períodos de 0h, 24h, 48h, 72h. Os resultados da EVA mostram que o laser controlou melhor a dor nos períodos de 3 (p = 0,010), 24 (p = 0,002), e 48 horas (p = 0,013). Não houve diferença entre Laser e Sham para NAR (p = 0,329) e para o tempo necessário para o primeiro consumo de analgésico (p = 0,462). Os resultados da EVA para edema mostram que o laser controlou melhor nos períodos de 24 (p = 0,041) e 48 horas (p = 0,013). A redução da abertura bucal foi menor no grupo Sham em todos os períodos avaliados (p < 0,05). Conclui-se que o protocolo de laser utilizado nessa pesquisa permitiu redução de dor e edema, conduto sem efeito para o trismo(AU)


The aim of this randomized clinical trial (split mouth) was to evaluate a low intensity laser protocol to control pain, edema and trismus after extraction of retained third molars. . For this, 13 patients with similarly positioned bilateral third molars were used and each patient served twice as a sample unit. Patients were randomized according to the treatment they would receive, laser side: single low power laser at 810 nm wavelength, 6 J (100 mW, 60s / dot); and sham side: laser application simulation. After surgery, patients were followed for three consecutive days to assess 1) Pain, by means of rescue analgesic consumption (NAR), Visual Analog Scale (VAS) in the periods of 0h, 1h, 2h, 3h, 12h , 24h, 48h, 72 h and mean time of first analgesic use; 2) Edema, through VAS, and mean obtained from the linear facial measurements obtained between the mandibular angle to the corner of the eye, the tragus to the labial commissure and the tragus to the chin (central por tion) in the periods of 0h, 24h, 48h, 72h; 3) Trismus, through the mouth opening average in the periods of 0h, 24h, 48h, 72h. The VAS results show that the laser better controlled pain at periods of 3 (p = 0.010), 24 (p = 0.002), and 48 hours (p = 0.013). There was no difference between Laser and Sham for NAR (p = 0.329) and for the time required for the first analgesic use (p = 0.462). VAS results for edema show that the laser controlled better at 24 (p = 0.041) and 48 hours (p = 0.013). Mouth opening redu ction was smaller in the Sham group in all periods evaluated (p <0.05). It is concluded that the laser protocol used in this research allowed pain and edema reduction, conduit without effect for trismus(AU)

RESUMO

Objective: To compare the anti-inflammatory effectiveness of dexa-methasone as pre-surgical and post-surgical therapy in mandibular third molar surgery. Materials and methods: Randomized clinical trial conducted in 60 patients in need of mandibular third molar extraction, ages ranging from 16 to 35 years old, at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of the Arzobispo Loayza National Hospital during the period of January-March, 2016. Patients were distributed in two randomized groups: Group A received 4mg dexamethasone intramuscular before the surgery, and Group B received the same medication post-surgery. Facial edema was assessed using the distance between facial points, trismus was evaluated using the interincisal distance, and pain intensity was determined using a Numerical Scale (NS). Results: Facial edema values were lower in Group A at 60 minutes (p=0.002) and after the first (p=0.001) and third days (p=0.009), compared to Group B. Regarding trismus, no significant differences between the groups were found. Regarding pain intensity, the highest point was recorded at 6 hours in both groups; however, no significant differences between the groups were found. Conclusion: Pre-surgical dexamethasone administration produced a significantly greater reduction in facial edema after mandibular third molar surgery.


Objetivo: Comparar la efectividad antiinflamatoria de dexametasona como terapia prequirúrgica y postquirúrgica en la cirugía del tercer molar mandibular. Materiales y métodos: Ensayo clínico aleatorizado que incluyó a 60 pacientes de 16 a 35 años del Servicio de Cirugía Bucal y Maxilofacial del Hospital Nacional Arzobispo Loayza con necesidad de exodoncia de tercer molar mandibular durante el periodo de enero a marzo del 2016. Se distribuyeron en dos grupos aleatoriamente: El grupo A recibió prequirúrgicamente 4 mg de dexametasona vía intramuscular y el grupo B recibió la misma medicación postquirúrgicamente. Se evaluó el edema facial, mediante la distancia entre puntos faciales, el trismus mediante la distancia interincisal y la intensidad de dolor mediante la Escala Numérica (EN). Resultados: Los valores del edema facial fueron menores en el grupo A a los 60 minutos (p=0,002), primer (p=0,001) y tercer día (p=0,009) en comparación al grupo B. Respecto al trismus, no se encontró diferencia significativa entre los grupos durante las evaluaciones realizadas. Respecto al dolor, la mayor intensidad se percibió a las 6 horas en ambos grupos; sin embargo, no se encontró diferencia significativa entre los grupos durante todas las evaluaciones realizadas. Conclusión: La administración prequirúrgica de dexametasona produjo una significativa mayor reducción del edema facial posterior a la cirugía del tercer molar mandibular.

RESUMO

El absceso periamigdalino es la complicación más frecuente de la amigdalitis aguda bacteriana, definido como la presencia de pus entre la cápsula periamigdalina y el músculo constrictor superior de la faringe. Habitualmente, su presentación es unilateral; es rara su afectación bilateral. Es más frecuente en adultos y poco común en niños. Cuando es bilateral, el paciente presenta odinofagia, trismus, sialorrea, fiebre y voz gutural, síntomas que comparte con el absceso unilateral, pero, en el examen físico, se evidencia abombamiento de ambos pilares anteriores, edema de úvula y paladar blando, sin asimetrías de las estructuras faríngeas. Se requiere un alto nivel de sospecha clínica para lograr el diagnóstico temprano. El manejo de la vía aérea, que podría ser dificultoso, es un aspecto importante en el tratamiento. Se presenta el caso clínico de un niño con absceso periamigdalino bilateral; se describe el proceso diagnóstico y terapéutico.


Peritonsillar abscess is the most common complication of acute bacterial tonsillitis, defined as the presence of purulent exudate between the peritonsillar capsule and the superior constrictor muscle of the pharynx. Usually, its presentation is unilateral; its bilateral involvement is rare. It is more common in adults, being uncommon in children. Clinically, it presents odynophagia, trismus, sialorrhea, fever, guttural voice, symptoms that it shares with the unilateral abscess, evidencing in the physical examination bulging of both anterior pillars, edema of the uvula and soft palate, but without asymmetries of pharyngeal structures. A high level of clinical suspicion is required to achieve early diagnosis. The management of the airway, which could be difficult, is an important aspect in the treatment. It is reported the clinical case of a child with bilateral peritonsillar abscess, the diagnostic and therapeutic process.

RESUMO

Atualmente, o Gothenburg Trismus Questionnaire (GTQ) é o único questionário de qualidade de vida específico sobre trismo. A afecção, definida como restrição à abertura da boca, gera prejuízo a atividades habituais como comer, engolir, falar e fazer a higiene oral, trazendo grande desconforto aos pacientes. A tradução de questionários de qualidade de vida desempenha um importante papel no conhecimento da saúde das populações nos diferentes países. O objetivo do presente estudo é apresentar a validação do GTQ para a língua portuguesa, a fim de permitir sua aplicação efetiva nas populações de idioma português. O GTQ foi validado com sucesso para a língua portuguesa conforme os seguintes passos: Tradução, Retradução (back translation), Adaptação cultural e Revalidação.


Currently, the Gothenburg Trismus Questionnaire (GTQ) is the only quality-of-life questionnaire specific for the assessment of trismus. The disease, characterized by limited mouth opening, impairs usual activities such as eating, swallowing, talking, and performing oral hygiene, causing great discomfort to patients. Translation of quality-of-life questionnaires plays an important role in promoting health awareness in the populations of different countries. This study aimed to validate the Portuguese version of the GTQ to allow its effective application in Portuguesespeaking populations. The Portuguese version of the GTQ was successfully validated through the following steps: translation, back translation, cultural adaptation, and revalidation.
