RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To compare the body mass index (BMI) and the weight loss (WL) in patients with dentofacial deformities who underwent monomaxillary versus bimaxillary orthognathic surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This prospective longitudinal study included 69 patients with dentofacial deformities who underwent surgical orthodontic treatment. Patients were divided into two groups according to the type of orthognathic surgery: monomaxillary or bimaxillary. A preoperative nutritional assessment based on BMI was performed; the percentage of involuntary WL between the preoperative and postoperative periods was also calculated. Data were collected at preoperative and 10, 40, and 90 days postoperative (PO). Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 17.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA), and data are reported with 95% confidence interval. RESULTS: According to BMI, patients who underwent monomaxillary surgery presented: underweight = 2.6%, normal weight = 51.3%, overweight = 35.9%, and obese = 10.3%. The subjects who underwent bimaxillary surgery presented: normal weight = 43.3%, overweight = 36.7%, and obese = 20%. BMI was similar between the groups at all time points (preoperative, p= 0.237; 10 days PO, p= 0.325; 40 days PO, p= 0.430; and 90 days PO, p= 0.609). All patients lost weight postoperatively, and WL was similar among the PO measurements (p= 0.163). CONCLUSIONS: Although both monomaxillary and bimaxillary orthognathic surgeries resulted in WL and lower BMI, there was no statistically significant difference in these metrics between the two types of surgery.

Background: The use of non-autogenous biomaterial to increase bone height in the maxillary sinus has been shown to be effective, but the results are still inconclusive. Material and Methods: Eight participants were selected and included in the research. After surgical access with osteotomy on the lateral wall of both maxillary sinuses, these were filled with Cerabone®. Then, by blind randomization, they received one of the following treatments: Filling with Cerabone® (Control group); treatment with Photobiomodulation (PBM), filling with Cerabone® and treatment with low-power laser (PBM group). Biopsies were obtained 30 days after the surgery, using a 2.8 mm internal diameter trephine bur. Qualitative and quantitative histological analyzes were performed and immunohistochemical analyzes of osteocalcin (OCN) and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) were performed with scores for each of the biological events. Results: The Cerabone® biomaterial demonstrated a high degree of biocompatibility. New bone formation was observed in both groups. In the PBM group, there was greater bone formation and newly formed tissue in an advanced state of bone maturation. The immunostaining of OCN was greater at 30 days in the PBM group than in the control. There was no significant difference in TRAP immunostaining at 30 days between the groups. Conclusions: Low-power laser-mediated by PBM promoted greater bone formation; the newly formed tissue showed a more advanced state of bone maturation in maxillary sinuses filled with Cerabone® biomaterial and treatment with PBM, within the 30-day evaluation period.

RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate whether sex and genetic polymorphisms impact the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) preoperatively and the difference between preoperative and postoperative OHRQoL in skeletal Class III patients submitted to orthognathic surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This longitudinal study consisted of ninety-nine patients with skeletal Class III malocclusion who required orthognathic surgery. The Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14) is a questionnaire used to assess the OHRQoL with a 5-point Likert-type scale, covering seven domains related to physical and psychosocial factors. The questionnaire was applied in the preoperative and postoperative periods, and the difference scores were calculated to assess the OHRQoL after orthognathic surgery. The DNA was extracted from oral mucosa cells to evaluate genetic polymorphisms in ANKK1, DRD2, ESR1, and ESR2 through real-time PCR. RESULTS: There was an improvement in all OHRQoL domains following orthognathic surgery (p < 0.05). In the preoperative evaluation, women presented worse OHRQoL (p < 0.05) than men. There was no statistical difference between sex and the OHRQoL after surgery (p > 0.05). When evaluating the polymorphisms and preoperative OHIP-14 scores, CT genotype patients for rs1800497 (ANKK1) had a worse perception of the physical pain domain than CC genotype (p = 0.026), and CC genotype patients for rs1256049 (ESR2) had a worse perception of the functional limitation domain than CT genotype (p = 0.002). In the analysis between polymorphisms and postoperative and preoperative difference scores, CT genotype patients for rs1256049 (ESR2) had a greater improvement in the perception of the physical pain domain than the CC genotype (p = 0.031). In rs6275 and rs6276 (DRD2), patients with the CC genotype worsened the perception of the functional limitation domain than the TT genotype (p = 0.045), and AA genotype patients worsened the perception of the functional limitation domain than GG genotype (p = 0.048) after surgery, respectively. In addition, patients with the CT genotype for rs1800497 (ANKK1) had a greater improvement of OHRQoL perception in the total scale than the TT genotype (p = 0.018), and CT genotype patients had a greater improvement in the perception of function limitation domain than TT genotype (p = 0.017). CONCLUSION: Women have a worse perception of OHRQoL in the preoperative period of orthognathic surgery. Furthermore, polymorphisms in the ANKK1, DRD2, and ESR2 genes could be involved with OHRQoL in the preoperative period and following orthognathic surgery. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The knowledge of the genetic background concerning OHRQoL in skeletal class III patients would aid in clinical practice to screen for associated genetic factors and prevent OHRQoL deterioration, especially after orthognathic surgery, considering that patients' genetic profiles would soon be available.

RESUMO Objetivo: Comparar o Índice de Massa Corporal (IMC) e a perda de peso (PP) de pacientes com deformidades dentofaciais após cirurgia ortognática monomaxilar e bimaxilar. Material e Métodos: Foi realizado um estudo longitudinal prospectivo em 69 pacientes com deformidade dentofacial submetidos a tratamento cirúrgico-ortodôntico. Os pacientes foram divididos em dois grupos: cirurgia ortognática monomaxilar e bimaxilar. Foi realizada avaliação nutricional pré-operatória de acordo com o IMC. Foi calculada a porcentagem de PP involuntária entre o pré e o pós-operatório (PO). A coleta de dados foi realizada no pré-operatório e aos 10, 40 e 90 dias PO. A análise estatística foi realizada no software SPSS v. 17.0, com intervalo de confiança de 95%. Resultados: De acordo com o IMC, os indivíduos submetidos à cirurgia monomaxilar apresentaram: baixo peso = 2,6%, peso normal = 51,3%, sobrepeso = 35,9% e obesidade = 10,3%. Entre os indivíduos submetidos à cirurgia bimaxilar, 43,3% estavam com peso normal, 36,7% estavam com sobrepeso e 20% eram obesos. O IMC foi semelhante em todos os períodos (pré-operatório, p= 0,237; 10 dias PO, p= 0,325; 40 dias PO, p= 0,430; e 90 dias PO, p= 0,609). Todos os pacientes perderam peso no pós-operatório. A PP foi semelhante entre os tempos de PO (p= 0,163). Conclusões: A cirurgia ortognática monomaxilar ou bimaxilar pode causar redução do peso corporal e diminuição no IMC, mas não há diferença estatisticamente significativa entre esses dois tipos de cirurgia em relação à PP e ao IMC.
RESUMO
Objective: The internal fixation has been purpose of study for many years, but there is still no consensus on the best method of fixation in relation to resistance for bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy (BSSO) using plates. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess five different methods of osteosynthesis using resorbable and non-resorbable plates and screws in simulated sagittal split osteotomy (SSO) of the mandibular ramus. Materials and Methods: SSO was performed in 25 polyurethane synthetic mandibular replicas. The distal segments were moved forward 5 mm, and the specimens were grouped according to the fixation method: Inion resorbable plate, KLS resorbable plate, standard four-hole titanium miniplate (Medartis), two standard four-hole titanium miniplates (Medartis) and an adjustable titanium miniplate (Slider/Medartis). Mechanical evaluation was performed by applying compression loads to first molar using an Instron universal testing machine up to a 5 mm displacement of the segments. Resistance forces were obtained in Newtons (N), and statistical analysis was performed using the software R v. 3.5 with significance level of 0.05. Linear mixed models were used to compare the force required to move each type of plate. Results: The results showed that the resistance of SSO was better accomplished using two titanium miniplates and KLS resorbable plate showed the least resistance. However, both titanium and resorbable plates behaved similarly in small displacements, which are most commonly observed in BSSO postoperative time. Conclusion: It can be concluded that both resorbable and non-resorbable systems might offer suitable mechanical resistance in the procedures where there are no mechanical postoperative complications.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate genetic variations in the osteoprotegerin-encoding gene (TNFRSF11B) in patients with temporomandibular joint ankylosis (TMJA). STUDY DESIGN: The sample comprised 17 patients diagnosed with TMJA, of both sexes with ages ranging from 6 to 57 years old. TNFRSF11B mutational analysis was performed using the Sanger sequencing method with DNA extracted from oral cells, and the functional impact prediction of the variants was assessed using bioinformatic analysis. RESULTS: Sequencing analysis identified 15 (88.23%) patients that presented at least 1 genetic variant in TNFRSF11B. The mutation rs202090603 (p.E33K) was found in 6 individuals, and rs140782326 (p.V281M), rs11573942 (p.L295), and rs1375250340 (p.I389T) were identified in 1 subject each. According to the pathogenicity potential of mutations, 3 variants were considered of low impact (rs2073618, rs202090603, and rs2228568) and 3 as disease causing (rs140782326, rs11573942, and rs1375250340). The variant rs202090603 (p.E33K) was found in the first cysteine domain with differences in the loop positions of p.E33K mutated the 3D structure of osteoprotegerin. CONCLUSION: Two polymorphisms (rs2073618 and rs2228568) and the mutations rs202090603 (p.E33K), rs140782326 (p.V281M), rs11573942 (p.L295), and rs1375250340 (p.I389T) in the TNFRSF11B gene may be associated with TMJA.

BACKGROUND: The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate mid-term implant and prosthesis survival in patients with edentulous atrophic maxillae submitted to zygomatic implant-supported fixed rehabilitation and to identify possible related risk factors. METHODS: Data were collected from records of patients with edentulous atrophic maxillae, in good general health and who were rehabilitated by means of acrylic resin full-arch screw-retained prosthesis supported by at least one zygomatic implant, between the years of 2006-2017. Implant and prosthesis survival rates were calculated. The association between implant and prosthesis loss and quantitative and qualitative variables of interest was verified with t tests and Fisher's exact tests, respectively. For the significant variables in the latter, odds ratio and 95% confidence intervals were additionally calculated. RESULTS: The sample comprised 66 patients in whom 171 zygomatic implants were placed to support maxillary screw-retained full-arch prostheses. Implant and prosthesis survival rates of 94.15% and 92.4%, respectively, were observed in a mean of 3.6 years of follow-up (up to 11.7 years). Implant loss was 4.33 more likely to occur when adverse events were recorded after the procedure of implant placement (P = 0.026) and 10.31 more likely to occur in implants that had their prosthesis repaired during follow-up visits (P = 0.004). Prosthesis loss was 22.00 times more likely to occur when implants were previously lost (P < 0.001). All prostheses that were considered as failures (i.e. were replaced) had been previously submitted to laboratory repair at some point during follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: Zygomatic implant rehabilitation demonstrated to be a reliable method with good mid-term results. The occurrence of post-surgical adverse events and need for laboratory repair of the prosthesis were found to be significant risk factors for implant loss. Previous implant loss was significantly associated with prosthesis loss. These risk factors may be prevented by means of detailed planning of the rehabilitation to be carried out, including post-operative care of the patients, so that treatment success using zygomatic implants can be achieved.

Laser therapy has been delivering good results for more than 30 years. Therapeutic effects are seen due to its ability to stimulate cell proliferation, revascularization, cell regeneration, local microcirculation, and vascular permeability; leading to edema reduction and analgesic effects. The piezoelectric system has been used in several surgeries recently, following the trend of minimally invasive surgery. The system consists of crystals undergoing deformation when exposed to electric current, resulting in an oscillating movement with ultrasound frequency. In oral surgery it is used in orthognathic and temporomandibular joint procedures, alveolar corticotomies, tumor excision, bone grafts, third molars, and dental implants.

Introdução: A luxação da articulação temporomandibular ocorre quando a cabeça da mandíbula se movimenta para fora da fossa articular, fazendo com que a superfície posterior da cabeça da mandíbula fique à frente da eminência articular. Quando ocorrem episódios frequentes, essa condição é referida como luxação recidivante. Embora existam diferentes tratamentos, a eminectomia apresenta-se como uma opção cirúrgica com resultados satisfatórios e prognóstico favorável. Relato de caso: Este trabalho relata o caso de uma paciente com quadro severo de luxações recidivantes associadas à distonia muscular, tratada cirurgicamente por eminectomia. A paciente apresenta acompanhamento de 36 meses, estável, sem sintomatologia ou novos episódios de luxação. A abordagem multidisciplinar apresenta um alto índice de sucesso, e procedimentos cirúrgicos devem ser considerados quando procedimentos clínicos falham. Considerações finais: A eminectomia mostra bons resultados no tratamento da luxação recidivante de ATM, com chances mínimas de recidiva ou danos articulares. Após a cirurgia, os pacientes mostram uma boa função articular... (AU)
Introduction: Dislocation of the temporomandibular joint occurs when the jaw head moves out of the joint fossa causing the posterior surface of the jaw head to be ahead of the joint eminence. When they occur in frequent episodes, this condition is referred like relapsing dislocation. Although there are different treatments, eminectomy presents as a surgical option with satisfactory results and favorable prognosis. Case report: This paper reports the case of a patient with severe recurrent dislocations associated with muscular dystonia, treated through surgical treatment of eminectomy associated with a clinical treatment protocol. The patient has a 36-month followup, stable, without symptoms or new episodes of dislocation. The multidisciplinary approach has a high success rate and surgical procedures should be considered when clinical procedures fail. Final considerations: Eminectomy shows good results in the treatment of recurrent TMJ dislocation, with minimal chances of recurrence or joint damage. After surgery, patients show good joint function... (AU)

PURPOSE: To identify the most prevalent types of complications associated with orthognathic surgery and its possible risk factors. METHODS: This study was a retrospective investigation of records of 485 patients who underwent orthognathic surgery between 2008 and 2014 at the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Service at the Federal University of Paraná, Curitiba, Brazil. Types of complications were recorded. Independent variables such as sex, age, duration of surgery and hospitalization, number of surgeries, surgical site, and types of osteotomy performed were evaluated. Complications were also evaluated based on the treatment according to the Clavien-Dindo Classification. Data were submitted to statistical analysis with a significance level of 0.05. RESULTS: A total of 93 complications were reported (19.2%), including postoperative malocclusion, hemorrhage, inferior alveolar nerve injury, bad split, and infection. Complications were more common in men (p = 0.029). The number of complications was higher in surgeries that took more time to perform (p < 0.05) when the entire sample was taken into consideration. The prevalence of complications was related to a higher number of procedures per surgery (p = 0.019). Complications were more frequent in mandibular procedures (p = 0.010), particularly in bilateral sagittal split osteotomies (p < 0.001). Related to treatment, Clavien-Dindo grade I complications were the most frequent (72.04%). There was no association between sex, age, surgery duration, length of hospitalization, or surgical site with complication grades according to the Clavien-Dindo classification (p ≥ 0.05). CONCLUSION: Postoperative malocclusion, hemorrhage, inferior alveolar nerve injury, bad split and infection are the most prevalent complication in orthognathic surgery. They seem to be related to sex, duration of surgery, number of surgeries, surgical site, and the type of osteotomy performed. With these in mind, it is possible to explain to the patient the different levels of severity of complications related to the surgery.

Masseter traumatic myositis chondro-ossificans (TMCO) is a rare pathological condition that causes severe mandibular function restriction. The aim of the present study is to report a TMCO case after direct masseter muscle injury and correlate it to bone and cartilage biomarkers up-regulation. Caucasian male patient, 38 years old, seeks treatment nine days after trauma with severe mouth opening limitation. Physical examination revealed a circumscribed hardened area connected to masseter muscle on the left side. Cone beam tomography and ultrasonography of masseter region were requested. There was incomplete fracture between the posterior board of inferior jaw and coronoid process as well as calcification within masseter muscle. The proposed treatment was excisional biopsy of calcification, coronoid process removal to enhance mouth opening as well as incomplete condyle fracture monitoring. Material removed was sent for histological analysis in order to confirm diagnosis. Immuhistochemistry was conducted and it was found that chondro-ossification biomarkers such as TGF-b1, Indian Hegdehog (IHH), BMP2, osteopontin (OP) and osteocalcin (OC) were up-regulated. One-year follow-up showed that the patient is stable with increased mouth opening and satisfactory jaw movements. Pathologists and maxillofacial surgeons must be aware of differential diagnosis of TMCO. Understanding cellular mechanisms of muscle tissue after trauma is also important once cellular pathway modifications leads to clinical features that differ from previously described in literature.

Oronasal fistula (ONF) is the most common complication after palatoplasty in patients with cleft lip and palate (CLP). When left untreated, it may negatively affect the quality of life, leading to development of other comorbidities. This study reports for the first time, the use of a portion of a hyperplasic tissue associated with pedicled buccal fat pad flap to repair a large anterior ONF in a 60-year-old man. The hyperplasic tissue may have developed due to the combination of a loose fitting upper denture and long-term use of dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker (amlodipine besylate). There is controversy in the literature about use of pedicled buccal fat pad flap in the anterior region. However, in this study, we report successful repair of a large anterior ONF using a portion of a fibroepithelial hyperplasic tissue associated with pedicled buccal fat pad flap.

The aim of this study was to report two rare cases of ectopic tooth into the nasal cavity. The first case reports a 32-year-old female patient with the main complaint of having a tooth inside her nose. According to her, this condition causes pain and sporadic nosebleed. The patient had a facial trauma when she was 6 years old. The second case refers to an 8-year-old girl with left incomplete unilateral cleft lip and palate. The main complaint was left-sided nasal obstruction by a white hard mass. The treatment for both cases was surgical removal of the ectopic erupted tooth under general anesthesia. In conclusion, we can state that the surgical removal of intranasal tooth is a safe procedure and improves patient's quality of life.

The aim of this study was to compare, in vitro, the mechanical resistance to vertical displacement of the mandible after osteotomy for lateralization of the inferior alveolar nerve and installation of dental implants. One hundred eighty polyurethane mandibles were equally divided into 6 groups: G1-intact hemi-mandibles (control group), G2-hemi-mandibles after osteotomy for lateralization of the inferior alveolar nerve, G3-hemi-mandibles with installation of 3 bicortical dental implants (3.75 × 13âmm), G4-hemi-mandibles with installation of 3 dental implants that did not reach the basal cortical bone (3.75 × 11âmm), G5-hemi-mandibles after osteotomy for lateralization of the inferior alveolar nerve and installation of 3 bicortical dental implants (3.75 × 13âmm) and G6-hemi-mandibles after osteotomy for lateralization of the inferior alveolar nerve and installation of 3 dental implants that did not reach the basal cortical bone (3.75 × 11âmm). The specimens were subjected to linear loading tests. The highest mean value of maximum load was found in G1 (412.36Nâ±â11.99), followed by G2 (396.87Nâ±â23.94), G3 (319.63Nâ±â57.28), G4 (303.34Nâ±â18.25), G5 (231.75Nâ±â63.64) and G6 (228.13Nâ±â20.75). Based on this data, it can be concluded that the bicorticalization (or not) of the implants was not a statistically significant risk factor for the vertical displacement of polyurethane hemi-mandibles.

INTRODUCTION: Fibrous dysplasia (FD) and aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) are uncommon non-neoplastic intraosseous lesions, and the occurrence of concomitant FD and ABC is extremely rare. CASE REPORT: An 11-year-old boy presented with gradual progressive enlargement of his right zygomatic bone over 4 years prior to presentation. Computed tomography revealed a lesion with a central bony area showing a ground-glass appearance surrounded by a well-defined expansile lesion with internal septations. An incisional biopsy was performed and suggested a fibro-osseous lesion. Resection was performed, followed by immediate reconstruction using autogenous bone graft from the iliac crest. Histopathological examination revealed irregularly shaped trabeculae comprising immature woven bone in a fibroblastic cell-rich stroma. Blood-filled sinusoidal spaces lined by fibrous septa containing scattered multinucleated giant cells were observed peripherally. These findings were compatible with concomitant FD and ABC. The patient was disease-free at the time of his 10-month follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: Based on our literature search, this report is the first to describe concomitant monostotic FD and ABC in the zygomatic bone. Accurate diagnosis requires careful investigation and examination of clinical, radiographical, and histopathological features. The treatment of choice should provide an esthetic and functional improvement in the patient.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the association between polymorphisms in genes that regulate bone metabolism, such as OPG, RANK, RANKL, and HIF1A, in patients with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) ankylosis. METHODS: The sample consisted of 181 individuals, the study included 17 individuals with TMJ ankylosis and 164 controls. DNA was extracted from buccal epithelial cells. The genotyping of genetic polymorphisms in OPG (rs2073618), RANK (rs3826620), RANKL (rs9594738), and HIF1A (rs2301113 and rs2057482) was performed by real-time PCR using TaqMan™ technology (Applied Biosystems). The data were subjected to statistical analysis with a level of significance of 0.05. RESULTS: The OPG (rs2073618) polymorphism was associated with TMJ ankylosis, both in the additive model and in the dominant model (p < 0.05). In the additive model, when the individuals carried the CC genotype, they presented as 10.80 times more likely to develop the condition (p = 0.03). In the dominant model, individuals that carried at least one C allele were 5.76 times more likely to have TMJ ankylosis, than those with the G allele (p = 0.01). CONCLUSION: The polymorphism rs2073618 of OPG is a possible marker that is associated with the risk of manifestation of TMJ ankylosis.

INTRODUCTION: The bifid mandibular condyle (BMC) is an unusual temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder with controversial etiology. The association of this entity with ankylosis is rare. OBJECTIVE: The objective of the present study is to report a case of BMC with associated TMJ ankylosis in a patient with no history of trauma and/or infection. CASE REPORT: A 17-year-old male patient sought care reporting pain on the right TMJ region and mastication difficulty due to a severe limitation of mouth opening. In the clinic and imaging examinations, a 15 mm mouth opening and BMC associated with ankylotic mass of the right TMJ were observed, besides a facial asymmetry with chin deviation to the right. The proposed treatment plan was condylectomy on the right side, bilateral coronectomy, and genioplasty, so the chin lateral deviation could be corrected, under general anesthesia. The patient remains under clinical and imaging follow-up of two years with functional stability and no signs of relapse of the ankylosis. CONCLUSION: The association of BMC with ankylosis is an atypical entity which must be diagnosed and treated early to prevent aesthetic and functional damages to the patient.
RESUMO
The mandibular fracture takes the second position among facial bones fractures, with significant increase of cases in the last years. The aim of this paper is to report a clinical case of a patient with facial trauma due to an automotive accident, resulting in an atypical fracture in a unilateral mandibular angle. In the image examinations an atypical favorable fracture in the right mandibular angle region involving the apex of the erupted 48 tooth was found. The fracture line started in the posterior region of mandibular ramus, below mandibular condyle, and spread out until inferior border of the mandible in premolar region. Despite the atypical design of the mandibular angle fracture described in this paper, the treatment showed satisfactory results, without any aesthetic or functional changes for the patient.
