RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to evaluate the postoperative pain in patients after endodontic treatment using 8.25% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) compared with other concentrations and 2% chlorhexidine (CHX). METHODS: In this double-blind randomized trial, 180 patients were evaluated who underwent a single session of endodontic treatment under irrigation with 2.5%, 5.25%, or 8.25% NaOCl or 2% CHX solutions. The presence of postoperative pain was assessed 24, 48, and 72 hours after treatment and recorded using the visual analog scale (VAS). A descriptive analysis, logistic regression, and Wald test were performed. RESULTS: Altogether 169 patients participated, of whom 107 were women, and the mean age was 38.1 ± 14.4 years. No significant differences occurred between the irrigants and the pain outcomes, not even for the use of postoperative pain medication and responses to VAS (P > .05). In the multivariate model including irrigants, after 24 hours or at any time, a significant difference (P < .05) remained in preparation time ≥10 minutes and the presence of overfilling. Also, in relation to the VAS, the overfilling presented significantly different results (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS: There was no significant difference in the presence of postoperative pain between the 8.25% NaOCl and the other irrigation solutions. However, the extended preparation time and the overfilling material were responsible for the increase of postoperative pain.

Objetivo: O objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar clinicamente a descoloração da coroa dentária após obturação do canal radicular com diferentes cimentos endodônticos. Métodos: Trinta e dois dentes foram tratados endodonticamente e obturados com AH Plus (AHP), Endofill (END), MTA Fillapex (MTA) ou Sealer 26 (SEA), divididos em oito pacientes por grupo. O registro das cores foi realizado com um espectrofotômetro antes da intervenção (T0 ), aos 30 (T1 ) e aos 90 dias após a intervenção (T2 ). As avaliações foram feitas no centro da coroa dentária e a variação de cor (ΔE) foi calculada por meio da Commission International de l'Eclai- rage (CIE) L*a*b. Um operador, especialista em Endodontia, realizou os procedimentos clínicos. Os dados foram submetidos a medidas repetidas ANOVA e teste de Tukey (Δ=5%). Resultados: Não houve diferença estatisticamente significativa na variação de cores entre os cimentos (AHP ΔE=4,11; END ΔE = 6,34; SEA ΔE = 8,77 e MTA ΔE = 12,15), p>0,05. Porém, houve diferença entre os períodos analisados (T1ΔE= 5,65; T2 ΔE = 10,02). Conclusões: Dentro das limitações deste estudo, todos os cimentos endodônticos causaram alterações cromáticas clinicamente perceptíveis na coroa dentária. No entanto, o AH Plus promoveu menos alterações cromáticas na coroa dentária (AU).
Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the crown discoloration after root canal filling with different endodontic cements clinically. Methods: Thirty-two teeth were endodontically treated and filled with AH Plus (AHP), Endofill (END), MTA Fillapex (MTA), or Sealer 26 (SEA), divided into eight patients per group. Color recording was performed with a spectrophotometer before the intervention (T0 ) and at 30 (T1 ) and 90 days post-intervention (T2 ). The evaluations were done in the center of the dental crown and color variation (ΔE) was calculated by means of the Commission International de IEclairage (CIE) L*a*b. The data were subjected to repeated measures ANOVA and Tukeys test (alpha=5%). Results: There was no statistically significant difference in color variation between the cements (AHP ΔE=4.11; END ΔE=6.34; SEA ΔE=8.77, and MTA ΔE=12.15), p>0.05. However, there was a difference between the periods tested (T1 ΔE=5.65; T2 ΔE=10.02). Conclusions: All tested endodontic cements altered the color of dental crowns (AU).

This study evaluated the association between polymorphisms in genes encoding estrogen receptors 1 (ESR1) and 2 (ESR2), vitamin D receptor (VDR) and in microRNA17 (which binds to ESR1 and VDR) with persistent apical periodontitis (PAP) after the endodontic treatment. We included 162 patients who completed endodontic treatment at least one year ago and presented apical periodontitis at the beginning of the root canal therapy. Clinical and radiographic exams were performed to evaluate the presence of PAP or healthy periradicular tissues (healed). Saliva samples were collected as a genomic DNA. The genotyping of ESR1 (rs2234693 and rs9340799), ESR2 (rs1256049 and rs4986938), VDR (rs739837 and rs2228570) and miRNA17 (rs4284505) were performed by real-time PCR. Chi-square test was used to the distribution of genotype and allele frequencies. Haplotype analysis was also performed. Eighty-nine patients were included in the "healed" group and 73 in the "PAP" group. No association was found between the allelic and genotypic polymorphisms studied and PAP (p>0.05). Haplotype analysis also did not demonstrated an association (p>0.05). In conclusion, the genetic polymorphisms in ESR1, ESR2, VDR and miRNA17 are not associated with PAP.

INTRODUCTION: This study evaluated the effect of residual substances derived from irrigant solutions and intracanal medications on the rheological properties of a silicone, gutta-percha, and bioactive glass-based sealer in comparison with an epoxy resin-based sealer. METHODS: Thin films of contaminants (0.5 µL) (3% sodium hypochlorite [NaOCl], chlorhexidine digluconate [CHX], 17% EDTA, calcium hydroxide, 40% citric acid, or distilled water [DW]) were applied along with freshly mixed GuttaFlow Bioseal (GFB; Coltene/Whaledent, Langenau, Germany) or AH Plus Jet (Dentsply DeTrey, Konstanz, Germany) on the lower plate of a dynamic rheometer. Rheological measurements were performed in oscillating mode at the strain amplitude, angular frequency, and constant temperature of 0.01%, 10 rad/s, and 37°C, respectively. Samples without contaminants served as controls. All measurements were performed 5 times. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and 1-way analysis of variance followed by the Student-Newman-Keuls test were performed to analyze the results (P < .05). RESULTS: The contaminants did not alter the setting time of GFB compared with the controls; however, CHX and calcium hydroxide decreased its complex viscosity (Æ*) (P < .05). The setting time of AH Plus Jet was increased by DW, CHX, citric acid, and EDTA (P < .05). All contaminants decreased its Æ* at the setting point (P < .05). NaOCl led to the greatest alteration of its rheological parameters. CONCLUSIONS: Irrigant solutions and intracanal medications adversely affected at least 1 of the tested rheological properties of both sealers, except for DW and 3% NaOCl, which did not alter any rheological property of GFB.

OBJECTIVE: This study monitored real-time torque variation of the WaveOne Gold (WOG) and Reciproc Blue (RB) during root canal preparation of mandibular molars. Thirty-six mandibular molars were prepared with WOG Primary 25.07 (WOGP, n = 36) and the RB R25 25.08 (RBR25, n = 36) for the mesial canals, whereas WOG Large 45.05 (WOGL, n = 18) and RB R40 40.06 (RBR40, n = 18) for the distal. Canal preparation was divided into thirds and the torque, maximum torque and time, were recorded. RESULTS: The RBR25 instruments exhibited higher maximum torque in the apical third in contrast to the WOGP instruments (p < 0.05). The intragroup analysis found a significant difference in maximum torque between the cervical and apical thirds, and the middle and apical thirds (p < 0.05) for both instruments (RBR25 and WOGP). The WOGP group had the shortest preparation time (p < 0.05). There were no significant differences between the WOGL and RBR40 for any of the parameters evaluated (p > 0.05). The RBR25 had the highest torque when compared to the WOGP. Both instruments exhibited higher torque in the apical third and there were no significant differences between the instruments in the distal canal.

INTRODUCTION: Complementary methods of anatomic diagnosis, including cone-beam computed tomographic (CBCT) imaging, may be useful in the diagnosis of mesiobuccal (MB) canals of maxillary molars. METHODS: Thirty-five maxillary first molars were subjected to ex vivo analysis and 4 CBCT protocols: i-CAT Classic (Imaging Sciences International, Hatfield, PA) (ICC group), i-CAT Next Generation (Imaging Sciences International) (ICN group), PreXion 3D (PreXion, San Mateo, CA) (16.8-second acquisition time; PX1 group), and PreXion 3D (33.5-second acquisition time; PX2 group). The images were evaluated by 2 calibrated endodontists who kept records following protocols previously published in the literature. Micro-computed tomographic imaging was used as the control. RESULTS: The correct identification of anatomic variations of MB roots was 54.3% (n = 19) in the ICC group, 65.7% (n = 23) in the ICN group, and 80.0% (n = 28) in the PX1 and PX2 groups. The probability of agreement between the ICC and the control groups was significantly different from the probability of agreement with the PX1 (P < .05) and PX2 (P < .05) groups. The other groups showed no significant differences compared with the control group. There was no difference in the probability of agreement between the tomographic protocols and the ex vivo results. CONCLUSIONS: The PX1 and PX2 groups were more effective for the diagnosis of MB canals. PX1 is the most suitable because it results in a shorter radiation time and diagnostic imaging similar to PX2. The single-canal anatomy was the most prevalent in the study.

The aim of this study was to assess the influence of sealer and light-curing unit on regional bond strength of resin composite to the weakened roots. Ninety roots of incisors were experimentally weakened, subjected to biomechanical preparation and filled with either Endofill, AH Plus or MTA Fillapex The roots were desobturated e reinforced with resin composite and fiber post light-activated with one of the light sources: halogen at 600 mW/ cm2 (QTH-600), LED at 800 mW/ cm2 (LED-800) and LED at 1500 mW/ cm2 (LED-1500). The roots were sectioned in slices from cervical, middle and apical root-reinforcement regions and analyzed by push out test, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). Bond strength data were analyzed using three-way ANOVA and Tukey´s test (α=0.05). Specimens filled with AH Plus had higher bond strength, followed by MTA Fillapex and Endofill (p<0.05). For light-curing unit, LED-1500 presented superior bond strength than LED-800, which was higher than QTH-600 (p<0.05). The cervical region had the greatest mean values (p<0.05) while apical part showed the lowest bond strength (p<0.05). CLMS revealed remaining filling material in the dentinal tubules for all groups. The eugenol-containing sealer (Endofill) compromised the push-out bond strength of composite resin to the root dentin. Bond strength was favored in the cervical region, and when LED-1500 was used.

Resumo O objetivo neste estudo foi avaliar a influência do cimento endodôntico e da fonte de luz fotoativadora na resistência de união (RU) regional da resina composta às raízes fragilizadas. Noventa raízes de incisivos foram experimentalmente fragilizados, submetidos ao preparo biomecânico e obturadas com Endofill, AH Plus ou MTA Fillapex. Os canais foram desobturados e reforçados com pinos de fibra de vidro e resina composta fotoativada com uma das fontes de luz: halógena a 600 mW/cm2 (QTH-600), diodo emissor de luz a 800 mW/cm2 (LED-800) e LED a 1500 mW/cm2 (LED-1500). As raízes foram seccionadas em slices provenientes dos terços cervical, médio e apical das regiões da raiz reforçada e analisadas por meio do teste de push out, microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV) e microscopia confocal de varredura a laser (MCVL). Os dados de resistência de união foram analisados por ANOVA a três critérios e teste de Tukey (α=0,05). Os espécimes obturados com AH Plus apresentaram maior resistência de união, seguido do MTA Fillapex e do Endofill (p<0,05). Para fonte de luz fotoativadora, LED-1500 apresentou resistência de união superior ao LED-800 que foi maior que QTH-600 (p<0,05). A região cervical obteve as maiores médias (p<0,05), enquanto que a região apical apresentou a menor resistência de união (p<0,05). MCVL revelou remanescente de material endodôntico nos túbulos dentinários para todos os grupos. O cimento contendo eugenol (Endofill) comprometeu a resistência de união da resina composta à dentina radicular. A resistência de união foi favorecida na região cervical, e quando o LED-1500 foi empregado.

INTRODUCTION: Bone graft is a very common procedure that is performed when bone volume needs to be increased before a dental implant. Screws and miniplates are the clinical standards for osteosynthesis. However, some disadvantages for this method have been reported, including artifacts on radiological images, infection, screw loosening, and the need to remove screws that interfere with the dental implants. Bone adhesives are a promising alternative for bone graft surgery. PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to compare the shear bond strength of two cyanoacrylate-based adhesives and titanium screws for bone graft fixation. METHODS: Pig jaw samples were cut into rectangular bars (2 × 6 × 20 mm) and bonded with a 5-mm overlap of N-butyl cyanoacrylate and ethyl cyanoacrylate, and 1.5-mm titanium screws were inserted into the center of the contact area. The blocks were fixed on a shear bond strength device that was coupled to a universal testing machine. The maximum force (N) was recorded on a computer and divided by the bonded area (in mm(2)) in order to calculate the bond strength (MPa). The data were statistically analyzed with ANOVA and Tukey's test (α = 0.05). RESULTS: The shear bond strengths of the screws were significantly higher than both cyanoacrylate adhesives, which presented statistically similar bond strength means, and have the biomechanical potential to be used for bone fixation. CONCLUSIONS: Ethyl cyanoacrylate is an inexpensive adhesive that has multiple purposes and can be considered as an alternative for bone fixation.
