RESUMO
Introduction: Photobiomodulation therapy (PBM) appears to induce osteogenesis and stimulate fracture repair; because of its capacity, it is considered a promising treatment, but the characteristics of response to different radiation doses must be investigated through in vivo studies to establish their safety and effectiveness. Thus, this paper aims to analyze the effects of the PBM at different doses on the repair of critical bone defects through histological and histomorphometric analyses. Methods: Sixty 90-day-old adult rats (Rattus norvegicus, albinus, Wistar) weighing approximately 300 g were used. Critical bone defects of 5 mm in diameter were performed in their calvaria. The animals were randomly separated into 5 groups: C-Blood clot, L15-PBM 15J/cm2, L30-PBM 30 J/ cm2, L45-PBM 45 J/cm2, L60-PBM 60 J/cm2. Each group was subdivided according to observation periods of 30 and 60 days with 6 rats in each subgroup. Low-level gallium aluminum arsenide (GaAlAs) lasers were used at a 660 nm wavelength, 30 mW and 0.04 cm2 in area. The PBM was applied over 5 points; 4 points of application were distributed on the edges while one point of application was located in the center of the bone defect. PBM occurred right after the procedure. In 30 and 60 days, the animals were euthanized by anesthesia overdose and the analyses were performed. The data were analyzed statistically by the ANOVA, together with the Tukey test, whose significance level was 5%. Results: As regards the treatment factor, the highest percentage of bone neoformation was achieved by group L45-60. The group with the highest closure, despite not having a statistically significant difference with the other doses, was 45 J with only 0.49 mm between edges. Conclusion: Thus, the present study allowed concluding that the highest percentage of bone neoformation area was achieved at 45 J/cm2 in 60 days; that is, it was significantly effective in comparison with other doses.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: The present study aims to evaluate two protocols of pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) on osseointegration and establish one that addresses ideal parameters for its use in dentistry, especially in the optimization of the implants osseointegration process. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixty male rats (Wistar) were allocated into three experimental groups: control (GC), test A (GTA, 3 h exposed), and test B (GTB, 1 h exposed). All animals received titanium implants in both tibias, and PEMF application (15 Hz, ± 1 mT, 5 days/week) occurred only in the test groups. They were euthanized at 03, 07, 21, and 45 days after PEMF therapy. Removal torque, histomorphometric measurements, three-dimensional radiographic evaluation, and in vitro biological assay analyses were performed. RESULTS: GTB showed better results compared with GTA in removal torque tests, in bone volume and bone mineral density, cell viability, total protein content, and mineralization nodules (p < 0.05). GTA showed better performance in trabecular bone thickness and cell proliferation compared with GTB (p < 0.05), especially at osseointegration early periods. In the histomorphometric analysis and number of trabeculae, there were no differences in the test groups. CONCLUSION: PEMF as a biostimulator was effective in optimizing the events in bone tissue that lead to osseointegration, especially when applied for a shorter time and in the initial periods of bone healing. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The PEMF therapy is an effective alternative method for optimizing bone healing.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: Electrical stimulation (ES) has been used to treat chronic wound and other clinical applications, showing favorable results in wound closure. It was hypothesized that ES can present a positive effect on oral mucosa healing. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of ES during the palatal mucosa early healing process in Swiss mice. METHODS: Ninety animals were divided into two groups: Control (C; nâ¯=â¯45), which received Sham ES applications, and Test (ES; nâ¯=â¯45), which received ES (100⯵A; 9â¯kHz; 660 mVpp) once a day for 3 days. A full thickness wound was performed with a 1.5â¯mm diameter biopsy punch in the hard palate. Histologically, the following parameters were evaluated: palatal wound closure and epithelial and connective wound edge distance (EED and CED). Furthermore, IL-1ß, IL-6, IL-10 TNF-α, and VEGF cytokine levels were evaluated by multiplex assay. The percentage of collagen fibers was assessed using the polarization method and the Smad proteins using the immunofluorescence method. RESULTS: Palatal wound closure presented a significant reduction on day 5 in the ES group (pâ¯=â¯0.01). Additionally, both EED and CED were shorter for all time points in the ES group (pâ¯<â¯0.05), and the inflammatory markers IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α, and VEGF were reduced (pâ¯<â¯0.05). There were no differences in collagen fibers and phospho-Smad2 between the groups. CONCLUSION: ES had a positive effect on early palatal wound closure outcomes, as well as on inflammatory markers.

OBJECTIVE: Considering the global public health problem of smoking, which can negatively influence bone tissue repair, the aim of this study is to analyze the influence of photobiomodulation therapy (PBM) on calvaria defects created surgically in specimens under the effect of cigarette smoke and analyzed with use of histomorphometric and immunohistochemistry techniques. METHODOLOGY: Calvaria defects 4.1 mm in diameter were surgically created in the calvaria of 90-day-old rats (n=60) that were randomly divided into 4 experimental groups containing 15 animals each: control group (C), smoking group (S), laser group (L), and smoke associated with laser group (S+L). The animals were subjected to surgery for calvaria defects and underwent PBM, being evaluated at 21, 45, and 60 days post-surgery. The specimens were then processed for histomorphometric and immunohistochemistry analyses. The area of bone neoformation (ABN), percentage of bone neoformation (PBNF), and the remaining distance between the edges of the defects (D) were analyzed histometrically. Quantitative analysis of the TRAP immunolabeled cells was also performed. The data were subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) in conjunction with Tukey's test to verify the statistical differences between groups (p<0.05). RESULTS: The smoking group showed less ABN compared to the other experimental groups in all periods, and it also showed more D at 21 days compared to the remaining groups and at 45 days compared to the laser group. The smoking group showed a lower PNBF compared to the laser group in all experimental periods and compared to smoking combined with LLLT group at 21 days. CONCLUSIONS: PBM acted on bone biomodulation, thus stimulating new bone formation and compensating for the negative factor of smoking, which can be used as a supportive therapy during bone repair processes.

PURPOSE: The present study aimed to evaluate the influence of cigarette smoke inhalation on an autogenous onlay bone graft area, either covered with a collagen membrane or not, in healthy and estrogen-deficient rats through histomorphometry and immunohistochemistry. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixty female rats (Wistar), weighing 250-300 g, were randomly divided and allocated into groups (either exposed to cigarette smoke inhalation or not, ovariectomized and SHAM). After 15 days, the test group underwent cigarette smoke inhalation. Sixty days after exposition, autogenous bone grafting was only performed on all right hemimandibles, and the left ones underwent autogenous onlay bone grafting with the collagen membrane (BioGide®). The graft was harvested from the parietal bone and attached to the animals' jaws (right and left). They were euthanized at 21, 45, and 60 days after grafting. Histological measurements and immunohistochemical analyses were performed, and results were submitted to a statistical analysis. RESULTS: The addition of a collagen membrane to the bone graft proved more efficient in preserving graft area if compared to the graft area without a collagen membrane and the one associated with cigarette smoke inhalation at 21 (p = 0.0381) and 60 days (p = 0.0192), respectively. Cigarette smoke inhalation combined with ovariectomy promoted a significant reduction of the autogenous graft area at 21 and 60 days. At 45 days, no statistically significant results were observed. In the immunohistochemical analysis, the ovariectomized and smoking subgroups, combined or not with collagen membrane, received moderate and intense immunolabeling at 21 days for Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor Kappa-B Ligand (RANKL) (p = 0.0017 and p = 0.0381, respectively). For Osteoprotegerin (OPG), intense immunolabeling was observed in most subgroups under analysis at 60 days. CONCLUSION: Smoking inhalation promoted resorption on the autogenous onlay bone graft, mainly when associated with ovariectomy. Furthermore, when associated with the collagen membrane, a lower resorption rate was observed if compared to the absence of the membrane.

A doença periodontal (DP) resulta de uma infecção polimicrobiana complexa, levando à destruição dos tecidos periodontais, como consequência da perturbação da homeostase entre a microbiota subgengival e os mecanismos de defesas do hospedeiro em indivíduos suscetíveis. A deficiência estrogênica (DE) é a causa mais comum de osteoporose. A osteoporose é definida como uma doença crônica, multifatorial, provenientes de uma desordem esquelética que promove fragilidade óssea pela redução de sua massa. Vários estudos experimentais têm demonstrado que a estimulação com Campo Eletromagnético Pulsátil (CEMP) pode promover a osteogênese e potencialmente aumentar a mineralização óssea e também, reduzir a inflamação aguda e crônica em tecidos moles e duros. Frente a isso, este estudo teve como objetivo, avaliar por meio da histomorfometria, imunoistoquímica e microtomografia computadorizada (MicroCT), a influência do CEMP na DP induzida em ratas ovariectomizadas e Sham. Para a pesquisa, foram utilizadas 60 ratas adultas (Rattus norvegicus, variação albinus, Wistar) com 3 meses de idade, pesando em torno de 300 gramas e em todos os animais a DP foi induzida. As ratas foram randomizadas em dois grupos experimentais, contendo 30 animais cada, classificados em ovariectomia simulada (Sham) e Ovariectomizada (Ovz), respectivamente. Os grupos foram divididos em dois subgrupos com 15 animais cada: Sham-S (n=15): não receberam terapia com CEMP e este foi nosso grupo controle. Sham-CEMP (n=15): receberam terapia com CEMP. OvzO (n=15): não receberam terapia com CEMP. OvzCEMP (n=15): receberam terapia com CEMP. As análises histomorfométrica, e MicroCT foram realizadas e os dados obtidos foram submetidos à análise de variância (ANOVA) e teste de Tukey, ambos com nível de significância convencional de 95% e não apresentaram nenhuma diferença estatisticamente significante. Na análise semiquantitativa para os biomarcadores RANKL e OPG, o subgrupo Ovz-O apresentou maior expressão do biomarcador RANKL e menor expressão do biomarcador OPG em relação aos outros subgrupos. Na análise quantitativa da expressão do biomarcador TRAP não foi encontrado nenhuma diferença estatisticamente significante. Apesar de não encontramos evidências significativas da terapia com CEMP na DP em ratas ovariectomizadas, o presente estudo nos sugere que o CEMP pode apresentar um efeito benéfico na remodelação óssea(AU)
Periodontal disease (PD) results from a complex polymicrobial infection, leading to the destruction of periodontal tissues as a consequence of the disturbance of homeostasis between the subgingival microbiota and the host defense mechanisms in susceptible individuals. Estrogen deficiency is the most common cause of osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is defined as a chronic, multifactorial disease from a skeletal disorder that promotes bone fragility by reducing its mass. Several experimental studies have shown that Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) stimulation can promote osteogenesis and potentially increase bone mineralization and also reduce acute and chronic inflammation in soft and hard tissues. The aim of this study was to evaluate, through histomorphometry, immunohistochemistry and computerized microtomography (MicroCT), the influence of PEMF on PD induced in ovariectomized and Sham rats. For the research, 60 adult rats (Rattus norvegicus, albinus variant, Wistar) at 3 months of age, weighing around 300 grams were used and in all animals PD was induced. The rats were randomized into two experimental groups, containing 30 animals each, classified as simulated ovariectomy (Sham) and Ovariectomized (Ovz), respectively. The groups were divided into two subgroups with 15 animals each: Sham-S (n = 15): did not receive PEMF therapy and this was our control group. Sham-PEMF (n = 15): received PEMF therapy. Ovz-O (n = 15): did not receive PEMF therapy. Ovz-PEMF (n = 15): received PEMF therapy. The histomorphometric and MicroCT analyzes were performed and the data were submitted to analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey's test, both with a 95% significance level and did not present any statistically significant difference. In the semiquantitative analysis for RANKL and OPG biomarkers, the Ovz-O subgroup showed higher expression of the RANKL biomarker and lower expression of the OPG biomarker in relation to the other subgroups. In the quantitative analysis of TRAP biomarker expression no statistically significant difference was found. Although we did not find significant evidence of PEMF therapy in PD in ovariectomized rats, the present study suggests that PEMF may have a beneficial effect on bone remodeling(AU)

Chronic renal disease promotes a decrease on kidneys filterability and nitrogen products accumulation on blood, electrolyte and system endocrine functions imbalance. Among the many clinical manifestations of chronic renal failure (CRF) in the oral cavity, there are: dry mouth, uremic stomatitis, radiographic changes in maxillary and jaw bones and accumulation of calculus on the teeth that increases levels of periodonto pathogenic microorganisms able to lead a periodontal tissue destruction and also have the potential to act from a distance on other organs, e.g. the kidneys. Thus, it becomes evident that a periodontal treatment of patients suffering from chronic renal failure is crucial for maintaining their general health conditions and a subsequent successful organ transplant.Thus, the objectives of this case report were to highlight how important the periodontal treatment is for chronic renal failure patients and to demonstrate improvements in their clinical condition through the treatment plan proposed herein. A patient with 43 years old carrier generalized moderate chronic periodontitis and CRF was submitted to scaling and root planning sessions, and later surgical access for scaling where the basic treatment not resulted in a resolution of the inflammatory periodontal process. The results obtained from a well-developed periodontal treatment and an effective cooperation of patient showed satisfactory results with periodontal disease process resolution or stabilization.Thus, periodontal treatment and patient compliance were crucial for the improvement of periodontal clinical conditions enabling a future successful renal transplantation.

A doença renal crônica promove uma redução na filtrabilidade dos rins e produtos nitrogenados acumulam no sangue promovendo um desequilíbrio eletrolítico e funcional do sistema endócrino. Dentre as diversas manifestações clínicas da doença renal crônica (DRC) na cavidade bucal estão: xerostomia, estomatite urêmica, alterações radiográficas nos ossos maxilares e mandibulares e acúmulo de cálculo dental que eleva os níveis de microrganismos periodontopatogênicos capazes de promover a destruição periodontal e também a capacidade de agir à distância em outros órgãos, como por exemplo, os rins. Dessa forma, torna-se evidente que o tratamento periodontal de pacientes que sofrem com a doença renal crônica é crucial para a manutenção de sua saúde geral e para o subsequente sucesso no transplante de órgão. Então, os objetivos deste relato de caso foram evidenciar a importância do tratamento periodontal para pacientes renais crônicos e demonstrar a melhora na condição clínica através do plano de tratamento proposto. Um paciente de 43 anos de idade, portador de periodontite crônica moderada generalizada e de DRC foi submetido às sessões de raspagem e alisamento radicular, e posteriormente, acesso cirúrgico para raspagem onde o tratamento básico não resultou na resolução do processo inflamatório periodontal. Os resultados obtidos a partir de um tratamento periodontal bem conduzido e uma efetiva cooperação do paciente mostraram resultados satisfatórios com a resolução ou estabilização da doença periodontal. Desta forma, o tratamento periodontal e a cooperação do paciente foram cruciais para a melhora das condições clínicas periodontais possibilitando um sucesso no futuro transplante renal. (AU)

Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo foi quantificar, através da técnica imunoistoquímica, a expressão do marcador de formação óssea Osteocalcina no processo de reparo do enxerto ósseo autógeno onlay, associado ou não à membrana colágena reabsorvível e comparar esses achados com a presença da Diabetes Mellitus. Material e Métodos: Foram utilizados 60 ratos (Rattus norvegicus, variação albinus, Wistar) com 90 dias de idade, divididos em dois grupos , cada um contendo 30 animais: Grupo Teste com Diabéticos , composto por ratos com diabetes induzida e Grupo Controle composto por ratos normoglicêmicos. Todos receberam enxertos na hemi mandíbula esquerda com recobrimento de membrana colágena e na hemi mandíbula direita sem recobrimento. Os animais foram eutanasiados nos períodos 0h, 7, 14, 21, 45 e 60 dias. A análise imunoistoquímica foi realizada com o marcador Osteocalcina na interface leito-enxerto. Para analise da expressão imunoistoquímica da Osteocalcina, realizou-se uma fotografia com visão panorâmica do enxerto e duas fotografias em maior aumento. Resultados: Os resultados mostraram que houve diferença estatisticamente significante ao nível de 5% intragrupo para Diabético e Controle com e sem membrana e também quando comparamos o grupo Diabético com o Controle com a presença da membrana. Conclusão: Dentro dos limites do presente estudo, pode-se concluir que a marcação da osteocalcina pode sofrer alguma influência do diabetes, sendo expressa de forma mais tardia na presença dessa condição. Porém, a associação da membrana ao enxerto pode melhorar esse atraso e deixar a expressão semelhante ao grupo controle.
Objective: This study aimed to quantify through immunohistochemistry the expression of bone formation marker osteocalcin during the repair process of autogenous onlay bone graft, associated or not to the resorbable collagen membrane and to compare these findings with the presence of Diabetes Mellitus. Material and Methods: Sixty rats (Rattus norvegicus, albinus variation, Wistar) aged 90 days, were divided into two groups with 30 animals: test group rats with induced diabetes; control group - normoglycemic rats. All rats received grafts on the left and right hemi-mandible with or without collagen membrane coverage, respectively. The animals were euthanized at the following periods: 0h, 7, 14, 21, 45, and 60 days. Immunohistochemistry analysis was performed by the marker osteocalcin at receptor site-graft interface. To analyze osteocalcin immunohistochemical expression, a panoramic view photograph of the graft was taken followed by two photographs at larger magnification. Results: No statistically significances at 5% level were observed between diabetic and control group with and without membrane; and diabetic and control groups with membrane coverage. Conclusion: Within the limits of this present study, it can be concluded that the osteocalcin marker might be influenced by diabetes so that it was late expressed during this condition. However, the association of the graft with the membrane could improve this delay by reaching expression values similar to those of control group.
