RESUMO

Objective: Hypercementosis (HPC) is an asymptomatic pathology that, according to the existing literature, has a low prevalence, there is a lack of information and research on it, within these studies, few are made by ethnic groups. To determine the prevalence and radiographic patterns of this condition, as well as the analysis of the relationship of the pathology with some of what are considered possible local triggering factors (FDL) in Mexican individuals. Methodology: 1193 orthopantomographies (OPG) were analyzed, randomly selected from patients of both sexes, with a chronological age range between 18 and 90 years, identifying the prevalence of HPC, as well as its relationship between age groups, its morphological patterns (focal, diffuse and sleeve-shaped), its distribution by anatomical region and dental organs (ODs) and the association of its presence with possible local triggering factors. Results: 348 DO with HPC were found in a total of 194 patients (16.30%), with no relevant differences between genders (P> 0.05). There was a significant increase with respect to the presence of HPC in relation to the increase in the age of the patients (P= 0.001), finding it present in 10% of the age group <40 years, in 20.30% in the group of 40 to 60 years and > 60 in 30.20%. It was found more frequently in a diffuse form (75.28%), followed by the focal pattern (19.54%) and finding the sleeve-shaped morphology less common (5.17%). The mandible presented the greatest number of ODs with the presence of HPC, 136 (39.08%), with the left side being the most affected with 86 OD. The dental group with the greatest involvement was that of molars and premolars. Conclusions: The prevalence of hypercementosis was 16.30% in the Mexican individuals evaluated. Its presence increases as the age of the patients advances. Its main location is the mandibular region with a predilection for premolars and molars. Even though the idiopathic origin is the most frequent, it was observed that dental impaction is a possible local triggering factor.

RESUMO

Sialolithiasis is one of the most common pathologies of the major salivary glands and occurs more frequently in the submandibular glands. Between 80 and 95% of sialoliths develop in the submandibular glands, between 5 and 20% in the parotid gland, and only 1% in the sublingual gland. Sialoliths form within the parenchyma and associated duct systems. In Wharton's duct (80-90%) and only 15% in the gland. Sialolithiasis is the cause of pain and inflammation of the salivary gland by obstructing the duct and preventing salivary secretion, before, during and after food.The objective of this article was to review the different diagnostic imaging methods used for the study of calcifications of the submandibular gland, based on different studies reported in contemporary scientific literature, in order to establish the correct diagnosis. A search of the literature was carried out in the main information sources including Medline (via PubMed), SEVIER, SCIELO, and LILACS, using the search terms with a date limitation of the last 5 years on average. The selected articles included information regarding the calcifications of the salivary glands. Imaging studies of salivary gland calcifications can be obtained with conventional radiographs, Sialography, Ultrasonography (US), Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MR).

RESUMO

In dental practice, the use of imaging has increased over the years, generating an increase in the radiation dose for the dental patient. One factor under discussion is the amount of dose used in patients, men, women and children, at different stages of their life, due to the scientific evidence of the harmful effects of ionizing radiation. This review of the literature analyzed the characteristics of radiation and its effects in relation to the doses administered, and its equivalences in dental practice in panoramic periapical radiographs and cone beam tomographies. A search of the literature was carried out in the main information sources such as Medline (via PubMed), SEVIER, SCIELO, and LILACS, using the search terms with a date limitation of the last 10 years. The selected articles had to include information regarding the keywords used, including "Dental Offices, Radiation Dose, X-Rays, Ambulatory Care."

RESUMO

Odontogenic myxoma (OM) is currently classified as a benign tumor of ectomesenchymal origin, observed between the second and fourth decade of age, with a predilection in women and predominance in the mandibular region, composed of rounded and angular cells embedded in an abundant myxoid stroma, of aggressive biological behavior, having the characteristic of being locally infiltrative. Tumor cells spread in the intratrabecular space beyond the bone limit, making it difficult to determine the edge of the tumor, even without cortical continuity, presenting intermittent direct contact with soft tissue; the appearance can be unilocular (small lesions), or commonly the typical image is that of a destructive lesion with poorly defined borders with a multilocular growth pattern, for which the use of advanced medical images such as Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CTHC), Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), are useful to establish an adequate diagnosis with the ability to point out the characteristics of OM with precision and three-dimensional perspective. This review presents a systematic analysis of the types of imaging tools currently used for the study of OM.

RESUMO

Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) of the craniofacial structure has demonstrated its usefulness in the dental area during the last decades, thus it has become a fundamental tool in the diagnosis, planning, and evaluation of treatment, and although it was not developed for the exclusive use in dentistry, as it is commonly considered, it is used in other areas such as medicine. It is specifically used in the head and neck area where different medical specialties interact, and at the same time these interact with dental specialties, so knowing the advantages of CBCT over different imaging technologies in the medical area is necessary. The purpose of this review was to describe the applications of observation, diagnosis, planning, and evolution of treatments using maxillofacial HSCT in different medical specialties. This work highlights the use of TCHC in different medical applications and highlights where it is most useful compared to other technologies.

RESUMO

Work is a fundamental axis for the development of societies and human well-being, but if a person cannot adapt to their work area and work environment, the individual may be affected by occupational or coexisting illnesses that get exacerbated when working.A scientific search was conducted in the main health databases - MEDLINE (via PubMed), Web of Science, SciELO, Scopus, Google Scholar, and Dialnet - using the keywords "occupational health", "occupational diseases", "occupational accidents" AND "oral radiology" OR "oral radiologists". Systematic reviews as well as observational, cross-sectional and longitudinal studies were included. Case reports, letters to the editor, editorials, and opinion articles were excluded. In total, 496 articles were recovered, and only 51 fulfilled the selection criteria. Signs and symptoms that affect oral radiologists include back pain, shoulder pain, wrist pain, tenosynovitis, computer vision syndrome (CVS), stress, depression, and burnout syndrome. Preventive occupational health (OH) measures are proposed to help eliminate or alleviate the symptoms associated with non-ergonomic habits at work. Oral radiologists are exposed to several risks and occupational diseases inherent and/or related to their work. By implementing simple habits and ergonomic advice, well-documented in the literature, these risks can be avoided.This review aimed to provide scientific information on the current concepts of OH in oral radiologists in order to help prevent occupational diseases and occupational accidents, and guarantee safe professional practice.

RESUMO

Los sistemas de conductos radiculares presentan una variada conformación morfológica para cada grupo de piezas dentarias. Diversos autores han presentado en diferentes clasificaciones su conformación anatómica y sus variantes. Tenemos los conductos principales, colaterales, laterales, secundario, accesorio, interconducto, recurrente, delta apical y cavo interradicular. La radiología actual aún no permite la visualización de todas estas estructuras; sin embargo, el uso adecuado de las técnicas imagenológicas, junto con el empleo de nuevos equipos 3D por ajustes de parámetros de adquisición con adecuados software y algoritmos, permite una precisión mayor en las imágenes lo que favorece la observación de finos detalles útiles para el diagnóstico y abordaje de los tratamientos endodónticos. El objetivo de este artículo es realizar una revisión de la literatura para identificar nuevos conceptos y herramientas imagenológicas útiles para obtener mejores diagnósticos. (AU)


Root canal systems present a varied morphological conformation for each group of teeth. Several authors have described the anatomical conformation and its variants in different classifications, including the main, collateral, lateral, secondary, accessory, interduct, recurrent, apical delta and interradicular cavus canals. Currently, radiology still does not allow visualization of all these structures. However, proper use of imaging techniques together with the use of new 3D equipment for adjustments of acquisition parameters with adequate software and algorithms allows greater image precision, facilitating diagnosis and the planning of the most adequate approach for endodontic treatments. The objective of this article was to conduct a review of the literature to identify new concepts and useful imaging tools for better diagnoses. (AU)

RESUMO

Vascular alterations or disorders of the blood and / or lymphatic vessels have their own characteristics, the identification of calcifications being a correct parameter to be able to make a proper diagnosis. The objective of the study was to describe the radiographic characteristics of the phleboliths, and whether they represent a challenge for diagnosis. according to the literature reviewed in the Medline (PubMed) database, Scielo, Google Scholar and some specialized journals. Phleboliths were found to have very particular radiographic characteristics, with concentric radiolucent and radiopaque images that resemble rings. However, not all the presentations are similar, this makes the diagnosis misleading with other calcifications in this region, such as sialoliths where their appearance is usually similar. Furthermore, there is the relationship with vascular anomalies and hemangiomas. finally, the evidence points to very specific characteristics of this lesion, and it is necessary to individualize each case, due to the differences that exist from one patient to another.

RESUMO

In 1942, Dr. Edward Stafne presented 35 cases of asymptomatic, clearly defined, round or ovoid radiolucencies occurring near the angle of the mandible, with a greater incidence below the lower dental canal, between the mandibular angle and the roots of the first lower molar, which he referred to as a bone defect. This bone defect later became known by other names.Clinically, Stafne's idiopathic bone cavity (SIBC) is asymptomatic, is usually not palpated intraorally and has no present extraoral signs. Thus, in most cases it is an accidental radiological finding, which appears as a delimited, elliptical or rounded radiolucent image, with a diameter ranging from 1 to 3 cm, and delimited by osteocondensation in the anteroinferior limits. According to the location of the findings, they are classified as; anterior, posterior and branch.This entity should be considered as a variant of normality requiring differential diagnosis to achieve an accurate diagnosis. The present review provides information on the history, and general and radiographic characteristics of SIBC to facilitate diagnosis when presented with this type of findings.

RESUMO

La ecografía es una ayuda diagnóstica en el área de la salud que se usa para evaluar el desarrollo intrauterino, observar el comportamiento de lesiones, valorar órganos internos y acompañar procedimientos clínicos específicamente en la medicina, pero en la odontología es un campo en el que apenas se está explorando e incursionando para incluirlo como parte de los métodos diagnósticos de rutina en la consulta clínica. El creciente interés por investigar su uso como método diagnóstico y terapéutico en la odontología se basa en las bondades que tiene y en cómo puede facilitar muchos procesos por tratarse de una ayuda diagnóstica accesible, económica y poco nociva para la salud. En el presente artículo se exponen los diferentes usos que se le da a la ecografía en las diferentes especialidades odontológicas, y se la compara con otros métodos diagnósticos. (AU)


In medicine, ultrasound is especially useful to evaluate intrauterine development, cyst behavior, and internal organs, but the use of ultrasound in dentistry has only recently been explored and used in the daily routine diagnostic methods in clinical dental practice. The growing interest in the use of ultrasound as a diagnostic and therapeutic method in dentistry has led to studies investigating its benefits in relation to accessibility, cost and innocuousness to health. This review describes the current use of ultrasound in different dental specialties and compares it with other diagnostic methods. (AU)

RESUMO

El osteoma es una lesión osteogénica benigna, derivado de hueso compacto o esponjoso. Se caracteriza por ser de crecimiento lento y aparece con más frecuencia entre los 20 y los 50 años de vida, con una prevalencia mayor en hombres con respecto a las mujeres. Clínicamente asintomáticos, los podemos encontrar en la región craneofacial, particularmente en los senos paranasales y la mandíbula, y pueden presentarse de tres formas: central, periférica y extraósea, siendo más comunes los solitarios, a diferencia de los múltiples que están relacionados con el síndrome de Gardner. El tratamiento de los osteomas es quirúrgico cuando causan complicaciones. Los estudios por imágenes, como la radiografía panorámica y la TCHC, son las modalidades de mayor uso para determinar la ubicación, la extensión y las relaciones anatómicas de la lesión. Las características imagenológicas pueden presentarse como una excrecencia ósea de hueso compacto, esponjoso o mixto. El conocimiento de esta lesión nos permitirá tener mejores propuestas diagnósticas. (AU)


Osteomas are benign osteogenic lesions derived from compact or spongy bone. They are characterized by their slow growth and appear more frequently between 20 and 50 years of age, with a higher prevalence in men than in women. These lesions are clinically asymptomatic and can be found in the craniofacial region, particularly in the paranasal sinuses and the mandible, and may have a central, peripheral or extraosseous presentation. Multiple osteomas are related to Gardner's Syndrome. Treatment of osteoma is surgical when complications develop. Imaging studies such as panoramic radiography and cone beam computed tomography are the modalities most widely used to determine the location, extent, and anatomical relationships of the lesion. Imaging features may present as a bony excretion of compact, spongy, or mixed bone. Adequate knowledge of these lesions allows adequate diagnosis and better treatment planning. (AU)

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To compare the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) morphological characteristics in people with Class II versus Class I sagittal skeletal relationship and to identify other factors that influence the TMJ dimensions. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This cross-sectional and retrospective study evaluated 188 people divided into two groups, 92 cone-beam computed tomographies (CBCTs) and lateral radiographs (LR) of people with Skeletal class II relationship with Class II division 1 malocclusion versus 96 CBCTs and LR of people with Class I skeletal relationship and Class I malocclusion (controls). The CBCTs included people of both sexes, aged between 15 and 65 years old. The 3D Imaging Carestream Software was used to evaluate the condyle height and neck width, mediolateral and anteroposterior condyle dimensions, the shape of the glenoid fossa and condyle in the CBCTs. Likewise, the ANB angle, the Wits appraisal and other measurements were evaluated on LR. Besides, Mann-Whitney U, Chi2 and multiple linear regression tests were performed. The significance level was set at P˂0.05. RESULTS: The mediolateral and anteroposterior condyle dimensions were smaller in class II people (1.82mm and 0.29mm, respectively) than class I people (P<0.05). Likewise, height and neck width of condyle were smaller in class II people (0.73mm and 0.40mm, respectively) than class I people (P<0.05). Multiple linear regression identified mainly the ANB angle as a factor (P<0.05) that influenced the dimensions, decreasing the condyle dimensions in skeletal class II relationship. CONCLUSIONS: People with skeletal class II relationship showed smaller condyle dimension values than class I people. A decrease in the dimensions of the eminence and the condyle could be expected when the ANB angle increases.

RESUMO

El presente trabajo busca realizar una revisión de la literatura para dar a conocer al personal ocupacionalmente expuesto a radiaciones ionizantes las ventajas y propiedades del concreto simple y la baritina para justificar su aplicación como materiales de blindaje en el diseño y construcción de muros en áreas donde se utilizan rayos X de uso odontológico, ya que estos, al no ser utilizados de manera segura, pueden tener efectos perjudiciales en la salud de las personas. En este trabajo también se describen las características generales de los rayos X que los hacen nocivos para la salud del personal ocupacionalmente expuesto, así como del público en general, por lo que surge en este punto el término de atenuación. Se encontró poca información sobre el tema, por lo que se desarrolló la relación existente entre ambos materiales y su importancia para dar información que pueda ser útil a todas las personas. Se concluyó que ambos materiales tienen la capacidad de bloquear y reducir la intensidad de la radiación, ya que el concreto actúa como un absorbente para reducir los efectos biológicos de la radiación y la baritina funciona como blindaje basado en el coeficiente de atenuación, por lo que ambos ofrecen una mayor resistencia y, al ser aplicados en conjunto, brindan una mayor protección para aquellas personas que puedan estar expuestas a rayos ionizantes. (AU)


The safety of the use of radiation in odontology must be guaranteed in order to avoid adverse effects to the health of dental staff and patients. The present study is a review of the literature on exposure to ionizing radiations and the advantages and properties which simple concrete and barite provide as shielding material in wall design and construction in areas of odontology in which X-rays are used. The general characteristics of X-rays which make them harmful to exposed workers and the general public are described. An attenuation coefficient is the fraction of an x-ray beam that is absorbed or scattered per unit thickness of the absorber. There is little information on this subject, however, it was found that both concrete and barite are able to block and reduce the intensity of radiation, with concrete acting as an absorbent to reduce the biological effects of radiation and barite acting as a shield. Based on the coefficient of attenuation these two materials provide greater resistance and their combined use allows greater protection against exposure to ionizing rays. (AU)

RESUMO

Los restos epiteliales de Malassez son células que se encuentran alrededor de las raíces de las piezas dentarias y forman parte de los tejidos del ligamento periodontal, donde se disponen en forma de red. Las funciones que desempeñan no son muy específicas; sin embargo, se demostró su participación en el mantenimiento del espacio del ligamento periodontal, la regeneración del tejido periodontal, la regeneración del cemento, entre otros. Además, tienen capacidad de diferenciarse en otros linajes celulares, lo que demuestra su capacidad como células madres, y el papel más conocido que tienen es su participación y proliferación en la formación de diversas patologías, como quistes y tumores odontogénicos. (AU)


Epithelial rests of Malassez are cells that are arranged in a network located around the roots of the teeth forming part of the periodontal ligament tissues. The functions that these cells perform are not very specific, however, they have shown to participate in the maintenance of the periodontal ligament space, regeneration of periodontal tissue, including cement regeneration among others. In addition, they are able to differentiate into other cell lineages, thereby demonstrating their capacity as stem cells. These cells are best known for their role in the participation and proliferation of the formation of different pathologies, such as cysts and odontogenic tumors. (AU)

RESUMO

Objetivo: Determinar la asociación entre el índice canino mandibular y el sexo, mediante la evaluación de volúmenes de pacientes que acudieron al CDI en el periodo 2014-2017. Metodología: Se evaluaron 500 volúmenes por tomografía computarizada de haz cónico (TCHC) de 184 hombres y 316 mujeres, con edades entre 12 y 50 años, por medio del software RealScan 2.0. Para hallar los datos, se usó la herramienta de medida y se procedió a determinar el diámetro mesiodistal del canino inferior derecho e izquierdo, así como la distancia intercanina inferior en cada volumen. Luego, se determinó el dimorfismo sexual de caninos, y se halló que el izquierdo presentaba el mayor valor (5,667%). Con este dato, se obtuvo el índice canino mandibular (ICM) por cada volumen. Seguidamente, se determinó el índice canino mandibular estándar (ICMs) ­ punto de corte­ y se obtuvo un valor de 0,264 y, a partir de él, se realizó la comparación entre el valor real del sexo de cada volumen con el obtenido a partir del punto de corte. Resultados: La eficacia del índice canino mandibular en hombres fue del 55.43% y en mujeres, del 54,75% (kappa = 0,095). Conclusión: El índice canino mandibular no debe ser considerado como un método determinante para la estimación del sexo. (AU)


Objective: To determine the association between the mandibular canine index (MCI) and sex by evaluating cone-beam computed tomographies (TCHC) of patients attending a radiographic center during 2014 to 2017. Methodology: 500 TCHCs of 184 men and 316 women ages 12-50 years were assessed using RealScan 2.0 software. The distal mesio diameter of the right and left lower canines was determined, as well as the lower intercanine distance in each TCHC. Then, the presence of sexual dimorphism was determined according to the canine teeth, with the left canine presenting the highest value (5.67%), and with these data, the MCI was obtained for each TCHC. Subsequently, the standard MCI cut-off point was determined, obtaining a value of 0.264 and the real value of the sex of each TCHC was compared with the cut-off point. Results: The efficacy of the MCI was 55.43% in men and 54.75% in women (kappa = 0.095). Conclusion: The MCI is not a good determinant for estimating sex. (AU)

RESUMO

Objetivo: Determinar la frecuencia de la osteoesclerosis idiopática (OI) y la osteítis condensante (OC) en radiografías panorámicas. Metodología: Se estudiaron 1500 radiografías panorámicas de pacientes de ambos sexos, con edades cronológicas entre 20 y 88 años. Se identificó la presencia de condensaciones óseas (CO); la distribución de acuerdo con la edad, el sexo, la localización y la relación con los dientes; y si eran solitarias o múltiples. Resultados: Se observaron 183 CO, con una prevalencia del 12,4%. Del total de casos, 113 correspondieron al sexo femenino (61,7%) y 70 al masculino (38,2%). La OI fue verificada en 127 sujetos (8,5% del total de la muestra), mientras que 56 presentaron OC (3,7%). La OI fue más frecuente entre la tercera y cuarta décadas de vida, mientras que se verificó un mayor número de OC por encima de los 40 años (p = 0,002). Respecto del sexo, ambos tipos de CO fueron más frecuentes en las mujeres, lo que fue estadísticamente significativo (p = 0,005). Las CO se localizaron con mayor frecuencia en la zona molar derecha, molar izquierda y premolar derecha; en cuanto a la relación con los dientes, fueron observadas en un número más alto en apical, separadas y en la zona apical e interradicular. La presentación única de las CO fue más prevalente según el sexo o el grupo etario. Conclusiones: Las características radiográficas de las CO estudiadas permiten distinguirlas de otras patologías. Su alta prevalencia indica que deben ser consideradas en el manejo clínico del paciente para orientar un plan de tratamiento adecuado. (AU)


Objective:To determine the frequency of idiopathic osteoesclerosis (IO) and condensing osteitis (CO) in panoramic radiographs. Methodology: 1500 panoramic radiographs of patients of both sexes, with chronological ages between 20 and 88 years, were studied. The presence of bone condensations (BC), distribution according to age, sex, location, relationship with the teeth, and whether they were solitary or multiple were evaluated. Results: 183 BC (12.4%) were observed with 113 in women (61.7%) and 70 in men (38.2%). IO was verified in 127 subjects (8.5% of the total sample), while 56 presented CO (3.7%). IO was more frequent between the third and fourth decade of life, while a greater number of CO was found over 40 years of age (p = 0.002); regarding sex, both types of BC were significantly more frequent in women (p = 0.005). BC were more frequently located in the right molar, left molar, and right premolar zone; Regarding the relationship with the teeth, a higher number of BC were observed in the apical, separated and in the apical and interradicular areas. The single presentation of BC was more prevalent considering sex or age. Conclusions: BC can be differentiated from other pathologies based on the radiographic characteristics. Taking into account, the high prevalence of BC, they should be considered in the clinical management of patients in order to guide adequate treatment planning. (AU)
