RESUMO
When edentulism is accompanied by an impacted tooth, conventional treatment usually involves traumatic tooth extraction, which would inevitably destroy the surrounding alveolar bone and cause unfavorable esthetics, especially for anterior teeth. Recently, implant placement through the impacted tooth or residual root has been proposed as an alternative to invasive extraction. A particular type of integration has been observed between dentin/cementum and titanium implant, while enamel-implant contact has not been reported. In this article, an implant was placed through the impacted maxillary central incisor, thereby avoiding an invasive extraction surgery. The buccal section of the tooth, including crown enamel, was retained in situ for buccal alveolar ridge preservation. The follow-up results were satisfactory, and a stable enamel-implant contact was observed. Combining with previous similar studies, this technique opens intriguing possibilities and brings fresh insight for the concept of dentointegration. More histological and clinical studies with long-term follow-up are warranted before endorsing this technique in routine application.

BACKGROUND/AIM: Removing resin composites used for bonding dental trauma splints may result in irreversible damage to the enamel. This in vitro study evaluated the influence of additional violet illumination and different bur types on damage caused to tooth enamel. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Fifteen maxillary models with four bovine incisor teeth were prepared. All models were scanned using a laboratory scanning system (s600 ARTI; Zirkonzahn). Six experimental groups (n = 10) were generated by two study factors: lighting type (three levels), (1) low-cost (5-7 US$) violet LED flashlight (LUATEK, LT 408); (2) VALO Cordless light curing unit (Ultradent) with black lens; or (3) without additional illumination; and rotatory instrument (two levels), (1) diamond bur or (2) multifluted tungsten-carbide bur. New scanning was performed after splint removal, and the generated files were superimposed on the initial scans using Cumulus software. The light emitted by both violet light sources was characterized by using integrating sphere and beam profile. A qualitative and quantitative analysis of enamel damage and two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's post hoc was used at an α = 0.05. RESULTS: The use of low-cost violet flashlight that emitted the violet peak light at 385 nm and VALO Cordless with black lens at 396 nm resulted in significantly lower damage to the enamel surface than those in the groups without additional violet light (p < .001). An interaction between rotatory instruments and lighting was found. When no additional violet lighting was used, the diamond bur presented higher mean and maximum depth values. CONCLUSIONS: Fluorescence lighting facilitated the removal of remnant resin composite dental trauma splints, leading to less invasive treatment. The diamond bur resulted in higher enamel damage than that affected by the multifluted bur when no violet lighting was used. A low-cost violet flashlight is a useful fluorescence-aided identification technique for removing resin composite dental trauma splints.

ABSTRACT Objective: To investigate whether the dimensions of cavitated dentin carious lesions on the occlusoproximal surfaces of primary teeth could predict the location of cement-enamel junction (CEJ). Material and Methods: Two hundred extracted primary molars were selected and digital images were obtained. The teeth were set in arch models for clinical measurement. The cervical-occlusal (CO) and buccal-lingual/palatal (BL/P) cavities' dimensions were obtained by digital (Image J) and clinical (periodontal millimeter probe) assessments. The cervical margin location was also determined. The thresholds (cut-off points) were determined by sensitivity, specificity and the areas under the receiver operating characteristics curves (Az) for the two methods. Pearson's correlation coefficient was used to investigate the correlation between clinical and digital measurements. Logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the association between the dimensions and cervical margin location. Results: There was a strong correlation between methods for all measurements (CO: r=0.90, VL/P: r=0.95). Cavities with BL/P distance higher than 4.5 mm and CO dimension higher than 3.5 mm had a lower chance of presenting the cervical limit above the CEJ, irrespective of the measurement method. Conclusion: CO and VL/P dimensions could be used to predict the CEJ location and, ultimately, as a clinical parameter for restorative decision-making.

RESUMEN: Objetivo: determinar el efecto erosivo sobre el esmalte dental de dientes humanos extraídos, después de la exposición a bebidas industriales distribuidas comercialmente en Cartagena, Colombia. Materiales y métodos: estudio experimental in vitro en 26 dientes humanos extraídos con esmalte dental sano, distribuidos aleatoriamente en doce grupos experimentales que fueron expuestos a bebidas industriales comercializadas en la ciudad de Cartagena. Las bebidas fueron expuestas durante 7 días, dos veces al día. Para determinar el efecto erosivo, se valoró pH de la bebida, pérdida de peso de los dientes expuestos y aspecto clínico del esmalte dental posterior a la exposición. Resultados: todas las bebidas evaluadas presentaron pH<4.5, siendo la Coca Cola® y jugo Hit® naranja las que exhibieron el pH más bajo. Todas las bebidas causaron desmineralización del esmalte, sin embargo, las que causaron mayor pérdida de peso fueron Speed Max®, Vive 100® y Coca-Cola®. Conclusiones: Speed Max® y Coca-Cola® fueron las bebidas que generaron mayor efecto erosivo sobre la estructura dental, por lo cual es necesario informar a la población los riesgos para la salud oral que se derivan del consumo desmedido de estas bebidas.
ABSTRACT: Objective: to determine the erosive effect on dental enamel of extracted human teeth, after exposure to industrial drinks distributed commercially in Cartagena, Colombia. Materials and methods: experimental in vitro study in 26 human teeth extracted with healthy dental enamel, randomly distributed in twelve experimental groups that were exposed to industrial beverages commercialized in the city of Cartagena. The teeth were exposed to the drinks for 7 days, twice a day. To determine the erosive effect, pH of the drink, weight loss of the exposed teeth and clinical appearance of the dental enamel after exposure were evaluated. Results: all the evaluated drinks presented pH <4.5, being Coca Cola® and Hit® Orange Juice the ones that exhibited the lowest pH. All the drinks caused enamel demineralization, however, the ones that caused the most weight loss were Speed Max®, Vive 100® and Coca Cola®. Conclusions: Speed Max® and Coca Cola® were the drinks that generated the greatest erosive effect on the dental structure. Therefore, it is necessary to inform the population about the risks to oral health derived from the excessive consumption of these drinks.

Although the topic of tooth fractures has been extensively analyzed in the dental literature, there is still insufficient information about the potential effect of enamel microcracks (EMCs) on the underlying tooth structures. For a precise examination of the extent of the damage to the tooth structure in the area of EMCs, it is necessary to carry out their volumetric [(three-dimensional (3D)] evaluation. The aim of this study was to validate an X-ray micro-computed tomography ([Formula: see text]CT) as a technique suitable for 3D non-destructive visualization and qualitative analysis of teeth EMCs of different severity. Extracted human maxillary premolars were examined using a [Formula: see text]CT instrument ZEISS Xradia 520 Versa. In order to separate crack, dentin, and enamel volumes a Deep Learning (DL) algorithm, part of the Dragonfly's segmentation toolkit, was utilized. For segmentation needs we implemented Dragonfly's pre-built UNet neural network. The scanning technique which was used made it possible to recognize and detect not only EMCs that are visible on the outer surface but also those that are buried deep inside the tooth. The 3D visualization, combined with DL assisted segmentation, enabled the evaluation of the dynamics of an EMC and precise examination of its position with respect to the dentin-enamel junction.

METHODS: The current study includes 80 extracted premolars of human from the patient visiting for orthodontic treatment of Coorg Institute of Dental Sciences, Karnataka, India. The brackets were debonded using four different methods. The enamel surface damage after the procedure was assessed with the Enamel Surface Index (ESI); similarly, the Adhesive Remnant Index (ARI) score was used to determine the adhesive residual deposit. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to visualize better microporosities and micromechanical retention of adhesive remnants on the enamel surface. The normality of the data was tested using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Depending upon the normality test result, the one-way ANOVA test or Kruskal-Wallis test was used to test the mean ESI and mean ARI differences among different debonding methods along with the appropriate post hoc tests. The necessary ethical clearance was obtained from the Ethics Committee of the institute. RESULTS: The ultrasonic scaler (US) technique led to more significant enamel surface damage, with 13 (65%) samples in the ESI scores III and IV against the satisfactory surface in 2 (10%) samples with the ligature cutter (LC) technique (ESI-I) reflecting LC as a better technique. The ESI scores (III and IV) for debonding plier (DP) and thermal method (TM) reflected a higher value in 12 (60%) and 10 (50%) samples and caused more damage to the enamel surface as compared to the LC technique. The ARI score was highest (ARI-1 = 40%) with the LC technique, followed by the US (ARI-1 = 20%), TM (ARI-1 = 15%), and DP (ARI-1 = 5%) methods. We have observed a significant association (p value <0.05) of the ARI score among four different debonding ways in terms of each tooth's residual adhesive after the bracket removal. CONCLUSION: The result establishes the LC technique as a more acceptable one as it causes minimal harm to the debonded surface. The adhesive left on the debonded area is also minimum as compared to the other three methods tested. Therefore, it can be suggested as an ideal method.

BACKGROUND: Traumatic dental injuries represent nearly 5% of children and adolescents' injuries leading to serious medical and psychological issues. This current study aims to evaluate the prevalence of dental trauma and its potential association with different predisposing factors among 12-and 15-year-old schoolchildren in Lebanon. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 7902 schoolchildren, 3806 male and 4096 female aged 12 years (n = 3985) and 15 years (n = 3917), were recruited by a stratified multistaged randomized cluster sampling method from public and private schools and were clinically examined in a national cross-sectional study. WHO criteria were used to assess anterior permanent teeth; the nature of trauma, the tooth involved, the size of the incisal overjet, and the type of the lip coverage were furthermore assessed. Data regarding age, sex, and causes of TDI were recorded through a structured questionnaire. RESULTS: The prevalence of dental trauma to anterior teeth was 10.9%. Maxillary central incisors (83.7%) were commonly affected. The most common type of injury was enamel fracture (68.3%), falls being the main reason (52.5%). Increased overjet (OR = 2.32, p = 0.034), deficient lip coverage (OR = 5.73, p = 0.019), and gender (OR = 5.36, p ≤ 0.001) were significant predisposing factors for dental trauma. CONCLUSION: This research highlighted many predisposing factors for dental trauma that affect commonly the anterior teeth. Based on these results, the implementation of strategic preventive measurements targeting especially the identified risk groups remains crucial.

O objetivo do presente estudo foi sintetizar e caracterizar ciclotrifosfato de sódio (NaTMP) contendo cálcio, e verificar seu efeito utilizando modelo de lesões iniciais de erosão do esmalte. Os ciclotrifosfatos contendo cálcio (CaNaTMP) foram sintetizados utilizando coluna para cromatografia e adição de sobrenadante de solução contendo hidróxido de cálcio e analisados por meio de microscopia eletrônica de varredura e espectroscopia de raios-X por dispersão de energia. Para determinar o efeito sobre lesões erosivas iniciais, blocos de esmalte bovino sadios (n=96) foram selecionados por dureza de superfície inicial e divididos em 8 grupos experimentais (12 blocos/grupo): controle (água deionizada), 0,24% NaF (1100 ppm F), 0,25%, 0,5% e 1% de NaTMP e CaNaTMP nas mesmas concentrações. Os blocos de esmalte foram imersos em 4 mL das soluções experimentais durante 2 minutos, seguidos por 4 desafios erosivos (ácido cítrico, 0,75%, pH 3,5, por 1 minuto, sob agitação). A porcentagem de perda da dureza de superfície (%SH) foi calculada após cada desafio ácido. Os dados foram submetidos à análise de variância de medidas repetidas a dois critérios, seguida pelo teste de Tukey (p< 0,05). O processo de síntese levou a substituição de átomos de Na por átomos de Ca e as partículas apresentaram tamanhos homogêneos. As soluções contendo 0,25%, 0,5% e 1% CaNaTMP apresentaram menor %SH quando comparadas as suas contrapartes sem cálcio (p< 0,001), após os quatro desafios erosivos. Quando comparado a solução contendo 1100 ppm F, as soluções 0,5% e 1% CaNaTMP promoveram redução na perda de dureza (p< 0,001). Concluiu-se que soluções contendo CaNaTMP promoveram efeitos protetores superiores em comparação ao grupo 1100 ppm F sobre lesões iniciais do esmalte(AU)
The objective of the present study was to synthesize and characterize sodium cyclotriphosphate (NaTMP) containing calcium and verify its effect using an initial enamel erosion model. Cyclotriphosphate containing calcium (CaNaTMP) was synthesized using column chromatography, and addition of a solution with calcio hydroxide supernatant and analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and energydispersive X-ray spectroscopy. To determine the effect on enamel initial erosion, sound bovine enamel blocks (n=96) were selected by initial surface hardness and divided into to 8 experimental groups (12 blocks/group): control (deionized water), 0.24% NaF (1100 ppm F), 0.25%, 0.5% and 1% NaTMP and CaNaTMP at the same concentrations. The enamel blocks were immersed in 4 mL of the experimental solutions for 2 minutes followed by 4 erosive challenges (citric acid, 0.75%, pH 3.5, for 1 minute, under stirring). The percentage of surface hardness variation (%SH) was calculated after each acid challenge. Data were subjected to two-way repeated measures analysis of variance, followed by Tukey's test (p< 0.05). The synthesis process led to the replacement atoms of Na by atoms of Ca with particles having, homogeneous sizes. The solutions containing 0.25%, 0.5% and 1% CaNaTMP promoted lower %SH when compared to their counterparts without calcium (p< 0.001), after the four erosive challenges. When compared to the solution containing 1100 ppm F, the 0.5% and 1% CaNaTMP solutions were superior in reducing hardness loss (p< 0.001). It was concluded that solutions containing CaNaTMP led to superior protective effects compared to the 1100 ppm F group on initial enamel erosion(AU)

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between debonding forces and enamel cracks length change between different debonding techniques. METHODS: 80 extracted premolar teeth with intact buccal enamel were divided into five groups. In each group, enamel cracks were evaluated by stereomicroscope before and after debonding. All teeth were bonded with metal brackets by self-cure adhesive (3M, USA) and then debonded by bracket debonding plier, fixed on the UTM machine, through five methods based on location of plier on brackets: OGwing (occlusogingival), MDwing (mesiodistal), Oblique, OGbase (occlusogingival) and Cusp-base. RESULTS: Based on non-parametric distribution of data, there was no significant difference between groups in ARI and enamel cracks length change. The highest shear bond strength for debonding presented in OG base method (25.25 ± 8.4) and the difference was statistically significant (P-value = 0.029). There was no linear relationship between shear bond strength and cracks length change and also between ARI and cracks length change. CONCLUSION: Despite the lower cracks length change in Cusp-base method than other groups, there wasn't significant difference between debonding methods. Also the amount of debonding forces and ARI do not affect the changes of cracks length.

Las lesiones dentales no cariosas comprenden un conjunto de procesos que se caracterizan por la pérdida o el desgaste patológico de los tejidos duros del diente, como ser el esmalte y la dentina. En la etapa inicial es difícil el diagnóstico, cuando la lesión va en aumento y si no es tratada a tiempo ni se modifican los factores de riesgo pueden llegar afectar de manera progresiva la pulpa dental. Estas lesiones han aumentado en los últimos años, debido al mayor tiempo de dientes en boca, acompañado de hábitos parafuncionales y dietas altamente acidas, a esto se le agrega el estrés que también provoca perdida de estructura dental. Por lo que no toda perdida de tejido mineralizado de los diente es provocada por una carga bacteriana. Estas lesionesno cariosas difieren en su etiología, se debe ser muy minucioso en su evaluación clínica y descripción, ya que muchas características clínicas pueden generar un diagnóstico erróneo y por ende un tratamiento no predecible, se debe tomar en consideración la existencia de combinaciones entre lesiones. Objetivo: Conocer la etiología y características clínicas propias de cada lesión, para poder realizar un diagnóstico oportuno y seguro. La revisión se realizó por medio de una búsqueda en internet en los buscadores de Hinari, Science Direct, Google académico, revisando artículos originales y revisiones bibliográficas entre los años de 2014-2019. Conclusiones: Las lesiones dentales no cariosas tienen etiologías multi factoriales, características clínicas diferenciales y puede haber una combinación de varias patologías...(AU)

BACKGROUND/AIM: Enamel fractures are the most common type of traumatic dental injury (TDI) in children and adolescents. Recognizing the impact of these fractures on oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) could contribute to the establishment of treatment protocols. The aim of this study was to assess and quantify the impact of enamel fractures on overall OHRQoL and domain scores in adolescents. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 775 adolescents aged 11 to 14 years in the city of Santo Ângelo in southern Brazil. Sociodemographic variables were collected from parents/caregivers using a structured questionnaire. The adolescents answered the Child Perceptions Questionnaire (CPQ11-14 ). Physical examinations were performed by an examiner who had undergone training and calibration exercises for the investigation of TDI (Andreasen criteria), dental caries (WHO criteria), and malocclusion (Dental Aesthetic Index). Data analysis involved Poisson regression with robust variance. RESULTS: The prevalence of TDI was 11.9% and enamel fractures accounted for 79.3% of all injuries. In the multivariate analysis, adolescents with enamel fractures had 29% higher CPQ11-14 scores (worse OHRQoL) than those without TDI, even after adjustment for sociodemographic and clinical variables (mean ratio = 1.29; 95% CI: 1.09-1.53; P = .003). Enamel fractures exerted a negative impact on the functional limitation, emotional well-being, and social well-being domains. CONCLUSIONS: Enamel fractures exert a negative impact on the OHRQoL of adolescents, suggesting that subjective measures should be incorporated in the evaluation of patients with this traumatic injury.

Introducción: Se requieren métodos experimentales abreviados para simular las lesiones de desmineralización temprana de forma controlada y reproducible. Objetivo: Realizar una evaluación in vitro de un método simple de desmineralización incipiente del esmalte. Métodos: Estudio experimental aleatorizado con doble diseño factorial de réplicas. Se seleccionaron 12 terceros molares de sujetos humanos saludables para su desmineralización en solución de ácido láctico racémico. Las muestras se distribuyeron aleatoriamente: Grupo 1 (G1) (n= 6) ácido láctico a pH 2,4 y Grupo 2 (G2) (n= 6) ácido láctico a pH 5,4. A continuación, cada grupo se subdividió (n = 2) para evaluar el efecto de las soluciones a tres tiempos de exposición (7, 15 y 30 días) a 37 °C. La evaluación se llevó a cabo con estereomicroscopios, equipo de radiografía digital con un software de análisis digital de imágenes y microscopía de polarización. Se formuló una integración de los índices de respuesta y se realizó un ANOVA. Resultados: Los hallazgos visuales, radiográficos e histológicos mostraron que en el G1 en los tiempos 1 a 3, la desmineralización se caracterizó por una gran pérdida de la integridad del esmalte (80 por ciento a 100 por ciento). Visualmente, el G2 a los 7 días mostró opacidad y pérdida de brillo (16 por ciento) con preservación de la estructura superficial del esmalte. Conclusiones: Se demuestra que el empleo de ácido láctico durante 7 días a pH 5,4 produce una lesión clínica, radiográfica e histológica similar a una lesión temprana del esmalte(AU)
Introduction: Abridged experimental methods are required to simulate early demineralizing lesions in a controlled and reproducible way. Objective: Perform an in vitro evaluation of a simple method of incipient enamel demineralization. Methods: Randomized experimental study with a double factorial replication design. Twelve third molars from healthy human subjects were selected for demineralization in a racemic lactic acid solution. Samples were then distributed randomly: Group 1 (G1) (n= 6) lactic acid at pH 2.4 and Group 2 (G2) (n= 6) lactic acid at pH 5.4. Each group was then subdivided (n = 2) to evaluate the effect of the solutions at three exposure times (7, 15 and 30 days) at 37°C. The evaluation used stereomicroscopes, a digital x-rays apparatus with software for the digital analysis of images, and polarization microscopy. An integration of the response indices was formulated and ANOVA was performed. Results: Visual, radiographic and histological findings showed that G1 at time 1 through 3 displayed demineralization characterized by extensive loss (80 percent to 100 percent) of enamel integrity. Visually, G2 at 7 days exhibited opacity and loss of brightness (16 percent), with preservation of the surface structure of the enamel. Conclusions: It was shown that employing lactic acid for 7 days at pH 5.4 develops a clinical, radiographic and histological injury similar to an early enamel lesion(AU)

O desgaste erosivo tem sido reconhecido como uma condição frequente nos últimos anos, principalmente devido a mudanças nos hábitos alimentares e comportamentais das populações em geral. Considerando a natureza irreversível desta condição, o diagnóstico precoce e a adoção de medidas preventivas são muito importantes. Dentre elas, a adição de polímeros a produtos de higiene bucal associados ou não a fluoretos apresenta-se como uma alternativa promissora, já que alguns polímeros apresentam compatibilidade com as estruturas dentais e capacidade de formação de um filme protetor. Este estudo foi subdivido em três artigos que visaram, através de diferentes abordagens, investigar o efeito anti- erosivo de polímeros formadores de filme, bem como o efeito da associação destes com fluoretos. O primeiro artigo consistiu em uma revisão da literatura sobre aspectos relacionados ao potencial de utilização dos polímeros para a prevenção da erosão dental. O segundo artigo consistiu em um estudo de varredura para verificar a capacidade de redução da dissolução da hidroxiapatita promovida por soluções contendo quatro polímeros (polioxirano, hidroxipropilmetilcelulose, pectina e um copolímero do polimetacrilato) associadas ou não com fluoreto de sódio -F (225 ppm F- ) e fluoreto de sódio + cloreto de estanho (800 ppm Sn2+) - FS. A mensuração do potencial zeta da hidroxiapatita dispersa tratada com as soluções experimentais foi realizada a fim de complementar a análise. O terceiro artigo consistiu em um estudo de ciclagem erosiva/reendurecedora na presença de película adquirida que se propôs a investigar o potencial de remineralização, potencial de proteção, a perda superficial e a tensão superficial do esmalte após o tratamento com as soluções contendo o copolímero do polimetacrilato. Concluiu- se que a utilização de polímeros formadores de filme, associados ou não a fluoretos, constitui uma abordagem promissora para prevenção da erosão dental. Dentre os polímeros investigados, o copolímero do polimetacrilato é um promissor agente para ser adicionado à produtos de higiene bucal visando a prevenção dos desgastes erosivos(AU)
Erosive wear has been recognized as a frequent condition in recent years, mainly due to changes in the dietary and behavioral habits of the general population. Considering the irreversible nature of this condition, early diagnosis and the adoption of preventive measures are very important. Among them, the addition of polymers to oral care products associated or not with fluorides is a promising alternative, as some polymers have compatibility with dental structures and ability to form a protective film. This study was subdivided into three articles that aimed, through different approaches, to investigate the anti-erosive effect of film- forming polymers, as well as the effect of their association with fluorides. The first article consisted of a literature review about aspects related to the potential use of polymers to prevent dental erosion. The second article consisted of a scanning study to verify the ability to decrease the hydroxyapatite dissolution promoted by solutions containing four polymers (polyoxyrane, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, pectin and a polymethacrylate copolymer) associated or not with sodium fluoride -F (225 ppm F- ) and sodium fluoride + tin chloride (800 ppm Sn2+ ) -FS. Measurement of the zeta potential of dispersed hydroxyapatite treated with experimental solutions was performed to complement the analysis. The third article consisted of an erosive/rehardening cycling study in the presence of acquired pellicle that aimed to investigate remineralization potential, protection potential, surface loss and surface tension of the enamel after treatment with solutions containing the polymethacrylate. It was concluded that the use of film- forming polymers, associated or not with fluorides, is a promising approach for the prevention of dental erosion. Among the polymers investigated, the polymethacrylate copolymer is a promising agent to be added to oral hygiene products to prevent erosive wear(AU)

The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence and discriminate the associated factors between enamel fractures and other trauma/trauma sequelae in 8 to 10-year-old Brazilian schoolchildren. A representative sample of 1,201 children from public and private schools were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. Questionnaires about sociodemographic characteristics were answered by parents. The outcome variable (traumatic dental injury, TDI) was multi-categorized. Independent individual variables were sex, age, number of residents in household, parents/caregivers' level of education, family income, dental caries, and overjet. Type of school was considered an independent contextual variable. Multilevel analysis, bivariate, and multivariate multinomial logistic regression models were performed. The prevalence of TDI was 14.0% (2.8% with other trauma/trauma sequelae). The multilevel analysis revealed no significant difference between the type of school and TDI. The multinomial logistic regression showed that boys (OR = 2.3; 95%CI: 1.1-4.8), older children (OR = 1.8; 95%CI: 1.1-3.0) and individuals with an overjet > 3 mm (OR = 2.5; 95%CI: 1.0-6.2) were more likely to present other trauma/trauma sequelae. Enamel fracture was not significantly associated with any variables. The prevalence of TDI in 8 to 10-year-old schoolchildren was 14% but only 2.8% of other trauma/trauma sequelae. Differences regarding the associated factors of TDI involving enamel fracture or other trauma/trauma sequelae were detected, suggesting that the different TDI classification cannot be evaluated as a single category.

AIM: The aim of the present study was to assess the association of sex, age, group of teeth, and type of accident (exposure) with dental fractures (outcome: enamel-dentine fracture without [EDF] or with pulp exposure [EDPF] and root fracture RF]). METHODS: In total, 1046 patients were selected. Logistic binary regression was used. RESULTS: The findings showed that EDF has less change of affecting individuals ≤9 years of age than ≥40 years of age (odds ratio [OR]: 0.58, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.35-0.95). Violence (OR: 3.07, 95% CI: 1.77-5.31), traffic accidents (OR: 1.50, 95% CI: 1.05-2.13), and sporting accidents (OR: 1.70, 95% CI: 1.19-2.44)] were associated with EDF. Regarding EDPF, the mandibular lateral incisors had a 10 times higher chance of being injured than canines and posterior teeth (OR: 10.43, 95% CI: 1.74-62.4). Those aged ≤9 years (OR: 0.21, 95% CI: 0.07-0.58) and 10-19 years (OR: 0.38, 95% CI: 0.17-0.88) had a significantly lower chance of being affected by RF. CONCLUSION: EDF and RF are associated with individuals ≥40 years of age; violence and traffic and sporting accidents are also associated with EDF, and mandibular incisors have a greater chance of being affected by EDPF.

OBJECTIVES: To describe a method of measuring the molar cusp deformation using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT), the propagation of enamel cracks using transillumination, and the effects of hygroscopic expansion after incremental and bulk-filling resin composite restorations. METHODS: Twenty human molars received standardized Class II mesio-occlusal-distal cavity preparations. They were restored with either a bulk-fill resin composite, X-tra fil (XTRA), or a conventional resin composite, Filtek Z100 (Z100). The resin composites were tested for post-gel shrinkage using a strain gauge method. Cusp deformation (CD) was evaluated using the images obtained using a micro-CT protocol and using a strain-gauge method. Enamel cracks were detected using transillumination. RESULTS: The post-gel shrinkage of Z100 was higher than XTRA (Pâ¯<â¯0.001). The amount of cusp deformation produced using Z100 was higher compared to XTRA, irrespective of the measurement method used (Pâ¯<â¯0.001). The thinner lingual cusp always had a higher CD than the buccal cusp, irrespective of the measurement method (Pâ¯<â¯0.001). A positive correlation (râ¯=â¯0.78) was found between cusp deformation measured by micro-CT or by the strain-gauge method. After hygroscopic expansion of the resin composite, the cusp displacement recovered around 85% (Pâ¯<â¯0.001). After restoration, Z100 produced more cracks than XTRA (Pâ¯=â¯0.012). CONCLUSIONS: Micro-CT was an effective method for evaluating the cusp deformation. Transillumination was effective for detecting enamel cracks. There were fewer negative effects of polymerization shrinkage in bulk-fill resin restorations using XTRA than for the conventional incremental filling technique using conventional composite resin Z100. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Shrinkage and cusp deformation are directly related to the formation of enamel cracks. Cusp deformation and crack propagation may increase the risk of tooth fracture.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to analyse the enamel damage caused by ultrasonic scaling of teeth with various enamel conditions that are difficult to identify by visual inspection, such as enamel cracks, early caries and resin restorations. METHODS: In total, 120 tooth surfaces were divided into 4 experimental groups using a quantitative light-induced fluorescence-digital system: sound enamel group, enamel cracks group, early caries group and resin restoration group. A skilled dental hygienist performed ultrasonic scaling under a standardized set of conditions: a ≤ 15° angle between the scaler tip and tooth surface and 40-80 g of lateral pressure at the rate of 12 times/10 s. Following scaling, the depth of enamel damage was measured using a surface profilometer and observed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). RESULTS: The damage depth was the greatest in the enamel cracks group (37.63 ± 34.42 µm), followed by the early caries group (26.81 ± 8.67 µm), resin restoration group (19.63 ± 6.73 µm) and the sound enamel group (17.00 ± 5.66 µm). The damage depth was significantly deeper in the enamel cracks and early caries groups than in the sound enamel group (P < .05). SEM clearly revealed enamel loss in the enamel cracks, early caries and resin restoration groups. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study suggest that ultrasonic scaling can cause further damage to teeth with enamel cracks, early caries and resin restorations. Therefore, accurate identification of tooth conditions and calculus before the initiation of ultrasonic scaling is necessary to minimize damage.
