ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate an imaging protocol for use as a diagnostic and calibration tool for dentists before and after practical activity. Material and Methods: Thirty photos of children's teeth with or without changes in dental enamel were selected and evaluated by a group of experienced dentists previously calibrated to establish the diagnosis defined as the gold standard. After instructions, the images were shown to a group of postgraduate dentists for free identification of dental changes. Subsequently, a lecture on molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) was carried out, and, at 14 days and all calibration was performed using the criteria previously. The retest was performed at 28 days. After experience in clinical activity in the following two weeks, the post-test was performed at 49 days. Data were analyzed using Cohen's kappa coefficient. Results: Theoretical learning on the subject showed low inter-examiner agreement when the diagnosis of defects was made from images obtained from intraoral photographs. After clinical practice, there was greater intra-examiner agreement. After theoretical training, dentists started to identify different types of enamel alteration, although with low agreement between them. Conclusion: Clinical experience in theoretical and imaging training favored the identification of defects. However, it is necessary to improve the protocol to establish a reliable and viable diagnostic method for calibration in MIH.

Abstract Objective: To evaluate the perceptions of smile esthetics associated with variations in the vertical plane of the maxillary incisors in the smile arc using eye-tracking software. Material and Methods: An image of a 59-year-old Caucasian male model was adapted and edited to make three changes in the vertical plane, simulating a convex, straight, and reverse smile arc. Four areas of interest were inserted at the right and left eyes, nose, and mouth. Forty laypeople raters between 18 and 45 years of age participated of the study. Eye-tribe hardware and Ogama software were used to perform eye-tracking. Attractiveness and age-perception questions were also incorporated into the study. ANOVA test and Pearson's correlation coefficient, at p < 0.05. Results: The most observed AOI in images with convex, straight, and reverse smiles, as assessed using heatmaps and point maps, was the mouth, followed by the right eye. A significant difference for the eye (p=0.02) was found when comparing convex and reverse smiles, whereas a significant difference for the mouth was observed between the straight and reverse smiles (p=0.03). Conclusion: Convex and straight smile arcs were associated with equal levels of attractiveness; the reverse smile was less attractive. No significant difference was noticed regarding age perception and the smile arcs. However, the reverse smile recorded a more complete fixation time.

Abstract Objective: To determine differences in how orthodontic patients perceive the aesthetics relating to the use of Essix and Hawley retainers. Material and Methods: Photographs of a female patient using an Essix retainer and a Hawley retainer, respectively, were assessed by 70 orthodontic patients aged between 21 and 55 years. All participants were provided with the same images of the two retainer types being worn and were asked to grade the aesthetics of each retainer using a visual analog scale. The significance of differences in orthodontic patient perceptions of aesthetics in the use of Essix and Hawley Retainers in the young adult and adult age groups were tested using the Mann-Whitney test with assumed significance p<0.01. Results: There were differences in participants' perceptions between the two retainers that were statistically significant, with responses varying between young adults aged 21 to 35 years and adults aged 36 to 55 years. According to the VAS, the two retainers' average scores in the total population are 82 for Essix Retainer and 60 for Hawley Retainer in both groups. Conclusion: The Essix retainer as a retention appliance is considered more aesthetically pleasing than the Hawley retainer among both young and middle-aged adults.

ABSTRACT Objective: To examine the types of traumatic dental injuries of the primary teeth (TDI-p) and the long-term sequelae on permanent dentition (LSP) comparing with a control group (CG). In addition, a questionnaire that measures parents' knowledge and awareness was used. Material and Methods: The trauma group (TG) consisted of permanent teeth following TDI-p exposed teeth, while the CG consisted of permanent teeth following unexposed teeth with TDI-p of the same patients. In total, 141 teeth were evaluated in 27 patients. Data concerning such as teeth, when TDI-p occurred, types of treatments and types of LSP were collected. Chi-square test was used for intergroup comparison for gender, type of trauma, LSP, age of trauma and parameters in the parental information questionnaire. Significance level was p<0.05. Results: A statistically significant difference was found in the analysis between TG and CG (p<0.001). The prevalence of LSP due to TDI-p was 29.6% and the prevalence of sequelae in CG was 7.4%. The most common LSP was enamel hypoplasia (14.8%). Parents were aware of the importance of TDI-p, and they had insufficient knowledge about its management. Conclusion: TDI-p can be considered a high-risk factor in the development of LSP. Also, the lack of knowledge in parents should be supported by software-based application systems to be developed.

ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the accuracy of three different digital bracket positioning systems, comparing vertical, mesiodistal and buccolingual accuracy. Material and Methods The same case was sent to Orapix, Insignia, and Orthocad systems and the brackets were bonded to the malocclusion models.Damon 3 MX brackets were used with all systems and the brackets were bonded to the models with the same bonding protocol and materials. The comparison of the position of each single bracket was made with digital photography, and ImageJ software was used to find the length in pixels and then convert it to hundredths of a mm for vertical, mesiodistal and buccolingual displacement, compared to the setup. Results Insignia System reported the average higher vertical displacement (0.28 mm), compared with the other two appliances (0.22-0.23 mm), and showed the lowest average displacement for the mesiodistal and buccolingual positioning (0.14 and 0.07 mm, respectively).However, these slight bracket positioning variations between these bonding systems were not statistically different (p>0.05). Conclusion The three systems analyzed were shown to be accurate in positioning the brackets, and none of them was statistically better.

Objetivo: avaliar por meio de um ensaio clínico controlado, randomizado e duplo-cego, o desempenho clínico de coroas monolíticas unitárias posteriores confeccionadas em cerâmica infiltrada por polímero, bem como o impacto da reabilitação na satisfação estética e qualidade de vida dos pacientes. Materiais e Métodos: Um total de 20 pacientes que receberam 36 coroas foram incluídos neste estudo. Todos os pacientes assinaram o termo de consentimento livre e esclarecido (TCLE). Os dentes sob reabilitação foram alocados por meio de um sorteio simples entre os grupos: Grupo Controle: (LD- dissilicato de lítio) e grupo Experimental (PIC -Vita Enamic/Vita Zahnfabrik). Registros fotográficos, radiográficos e informações clínicas foram coletados antes, durante e após a reabilitação. As coroas foram avaliadas quanto à taxa de sobrevida clínica (Critérios de USPSH modificados), satisfação estética (escala visual analógica- EVA), qualidade de vida (Oral Impacts on Daily Performances -OIDP), e tipo de falhas (biológicas e técnicas). A coleta de dados foi realizada por um único examinador calibrado e cego para o tipo de material, nos tempos de seguimento T0 (antes do início do tratamento), T1 (1 mês), T2 (6 meses) e T3 (12 meses). O OIDP e os critérios de USPHS foram analisados descritivamente. A satisfação estética foi analisada com MannWhitney/Teste de Friedman/ pós-testes de Wilcoxon. A análise de sobrevivência foi feita usando Kaplan-Meier seguido do teste de log-rank. O nível de significância foi estabelecido em (5%). Resultados: 36 coroas foram colocadas em 20 pacientes com uma média de idade de 47.17 anos (±13,91), sendo 22 (56,4%) coroas do grupo controle (LD) e 14 (35,9%) para o grupo experimental (PIC). A análise de Kaplan-Meier revelou uma taxa de sobrevida de 83,5% para PIC e de 86,2% para LD sem diferenças significativas entre eles (P>0.05). Quatro falhas foram registradas, 2 em cada grupo, sendo dois descolamentos, uma de PIC após 1 mês e uma de LD após 6meses. Houve também uma fratura do dente (LD) e mobilidade grau III (PIC) após 12 meses de acompanhamento. Não houve diferença significativa na satisfação estética, entre o grupo controle e grupo experimental (Mann-Whitney - P>0.05). A satisfação estética foi significativamente maior após 1(T1), 6(T2) e 12(T3) meses quando comparado ao baseline (T0) (Teste de Friedman - P<0.05). A reabilitação com coroas unitárias impactou positivamente na qualidade de vida dos pacientes. Conclusão: Este estudo demonstra que coroas monolíticas unitárias de PIC apresentaram desempenho clínico, estético e um impacto positivo na qualidade de vida dos pacientes após 12 meses, similar ao LD (AU).
Objective: To evaluate, through a controlled, randomized and double-blind clinical trial, the clinical performance of posterior single monolithic crowns made ceramic infiltrated polymer, as well as the impact of rehabilitation on patients' aesthetic satisfaction and quality of life. Materials and Methods: A total of 20 patients who received 36 crowns were included in this study. All patients signed an informed consent form. The teeth under rehabilitation were allocated using a simple draw between the groups: Control Group: (LD- lithium disilicate) and Experimental group (PIC -Vita Enamic). Photographic, radiographic, and clinical information records were collected before, during, and after rehabilitation. The crowns were assessed for clinical survival rate (modified USPSH criteria), aesthetic satisfaction (visual analog scale - VAS), quality of life (Oral Impacts on Daily Performances - OIDP), and type of failures (biological and technical). Data collection was performed by a single examiner calibrated and blinded to the type of material, at the follow-up times T0 (before the start of treatment), T1 (1 month), T2 (6 months), and T3 (12 months). The OIDP and USPHS criteria were analyzed descriptively. Aesthetic satisfaction was analyzed with the Man-Whitney/Friedman test/Wilcoxon post-tests. Survival analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier followed by the log-rank test. The level of significance was set at (5%). Results: 36 crowns were placed on 20 patients (17 women and 3 men) with a mean age of 47.17 years (± 13.91), with 22 (56.4%) crowns from the control group (LD) and 14 (35.9%) for the group experimental (PIC). The Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed a survival rate of 83.5% for PIC and 86.2% for LD with no significant differences between them (P>0.05). Four failures were recorded, 2 in each group, two detachments after 1(PIC) and 6 months (LD), a tooth fracture (LD), and grade III mobility after (PIC) 12 months of follow-up. There was no significant difference in aesthetic satisfaction between the control group and the experimental group (Mann-Whitney, P>0.05). Aesthetic satisfaction was significantly higher after 1 (T1), 6 (T2), and 12 (T3) months when compared to baseline (T0) (Friedman test - P <0.05). Rehabilitation with single crowns had a positive impact on patients' quality of life. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that single monolithic crowns of PIC presented a good clinical, aesthetic performance and a positive impact on patients' quality of life after 12 months, similarly to PIC (AU).

Abstract Objective: To determine if protein profiles identified in saliva could be used to determine risk and severity of erosive tooth wear. Material and Methods: Three types of saliva sampling were performed to obtain saliva from 34 18-year old individuals that received regular dental check-ups, along with clinical status of the dentition and risk factor related to erosive tooth wear using the VEDE scale. Protein profiles in saliva were determined using electrophoresis and the calculation of the percentage of a specific band at a specific molecular weight in relationship to the total protein in that sample (% of total) using molecular weight standards. This quantification was repeated for each protein band across a range of molecular weights for each sample to test for association with erosive tooth wear status. Results: There were no differences in the number of detectable proteins sourced from the parotid gland, nor the unstimulated and stimulated whole saliva. Five out of the 34 individuals had no signs of erosive tooth wear despite an acidic diet and were more likely to have proteins with molecular weight smaller than 1 KDa (p=0.03). Conclusion: There is potential for the use of protein profiling to determine risks for erosive tooth wear.

As indicaães para o uso do dissilicato de l¡tio sÆo m£ltiplas e nÆo limitadas para facetas em casos de dentes onde nÆo houve resposta favor vel ao clareamento dental, dentes com restauraães m£ltiplas, fechamento de diastemas, alteraÆo de forma e contorno dental, restituiÆo de dentes ausentes ou fraturados, entre outras. A versatilidade da cermica de dissilicato de l¡tio faz com que possa ser utilizado em diferentes situaães cl¡nicas. Seu uso concomitante tanto para facetas como sobre n£cleos met licos fundidos apresentado aqui com um resultado esttico bastante satisfat¢rio, sendo indicado para situaães onde h necessidade de aliarmos esttica e resistncia como atributos indispens veis.
The reestablishment of a harmonious smile through dental ceramics, when properly conducted and with specific indications, can achieve extremely predictable results. For aesthetic and functional rehabilitation, many ceramic materials can be used such as zirconia, leucite, alumina, feldspar, and lithium disilicate. Among these materials the lithium disilicate stands out due to the following characteristics: its resistance to wear, to chemical attack, high tem peratures and oxidation; low electrical conductivity; near zero thermal expansion; good optical properties and biocompatibility with periodontal; excellent esthetics; color stability and reinforcement of tooth structure. The indications for the use of lithium disilicate are not limited to multiple facets of teeth in cases where there was no favorable response to tooth whitening, and also comprehend teeth with multiple restorations, diastema closure, shape alteration, and dental contouring, replacement of missing or fractured teeth, among others. The versatility of lithium disilicate ceramics allows its utilization in several clinical situations. The concomitant use of lithium disilicate for veneers and over metal has satisfactory aesthetic results, as reported in the present studying cases that require both aesthetics and resistance.

This study evaluated the increase of the instrumented area and dentin thickness in the mesial and distal aspects of mesial canals of mandibular molars after the use of Gates Glidden (GG), LA Axxess (LA) and Orifice Shaper (OS) instruments. A total of 53 canals from 27 mandibular molars were embedded in resin and divided into 3 groups. The roots were sectioned 3 mm below the cementoenamel junction and the images were captured before and after instrumentation. The increase of the instrumented area in terms of percentages and the remaining dentin thickness, in mm, at the mesial and furcal aspects were calculated using the Image tools software. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn's test. The significance level was set at 5 percent. All instruments promoted cervical flaring with different amounts of dentin removal at the mesial and distal aspects of the root canals. Statistically significant difference (p<0.05) was found between LA and all other instruments after using the first instrument. Regarding dentin thickness, no significant difference (p>0.05) was found between the mesial and distal walls in all groups. It may be concluded that LA 35.06 and GG 3 burs produced the thinnest dentin walls, and thus their use in mesial canals of mandibular molars should be done with caution.
Este estudo avaliou o aumento da área do canal e a espessura de dentina na parede mesial e distal dos canais mesiais de molares inferiores após o uso de Gates Glidden (GG), La Axxess (LA), Orifice Shaper (OS). Um total de 53 canais mesiais de 27 molares inferiores foram incluídos em resina e divididos em 3 grupos. As raízes foram seccionados 3 mm abaixo da junção cemento-esmalte e as imagens foram capturadas antes e depois da instrumentação. O aumento da área do canal em percentagem e a espessura da dentina remanescente nas paredes mesial e furca foram calculados utilizando o software Image Tools. Os dados foram analisados utilizando o Kruskal-Wallis e teste de Dunn. O Nível de significância foi de 5 por cento. Todos os instrumentos promoveram o aumento da área cervical, com diferentes quantidades de remoção da dentina nas paredes mesial e distal do canal radicular. Diferença estatística (p<0,05) foi encontrada entre LA e todos os outros instrumentos após o uso do primeiro instrumento. Quanto à espessura da dentina, não houve diferença significativa (p>0,05) entre as paredes mesial e distal de todos os instrumentos analisados. O LA 35.06 e GG 3 mostraram a menor espessura da parede e sua utilização em canais mesiais de molares inferiores deve ser feito com cuidado.

Object photography in dentistry including dental instruments, models, teeth and gross specimens has some special features and needs special consideration. These objects are usually very small, highly usually reflective and often with very bright surfaces. They need special lighting and other accessories for acceptable results. On the other hand, in laboratories and dental clinics we haven't enough time for taking photographs. The purpose of this article is to introduce the principles of object photography in dentistry
