ABSTRACT

Abstract Erosive tooth wear (ETW) is the irreversible loss of dental hard tissue resulting from the chemical-mechanical process. The aim of the present case report was to present two clinical cases of patients affected by ETW arising from different etiological factors. The patients, of the male gender, 9 and 10 years of age presented to the pediatric dental clinic, for routine evaluation. On clinical exam, both patients had no caries lesions, but some lesions suggestive of ETW, which had aspects such as a translucent halo around the occlusal surface of teeth, in addition to "cupping" lesions - mainly in the cusp region, and loss of tooth enamel (by volume). The lesions were restricted to enamel, and the patients showed no dental hypersensitivity. From the dental clinical exam and anamnesis, the two patients were found to have similar tooth structure loss, with diagnosis of ETW. However, in one patient the etiology was extrinsic due to diet, and in the other, it was intrinsic due to gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). The latter patient was referred to a specialist for evaluation of the systemic condition, and GERD was diagnosed. It was concluded that dentists play an important role, as coadjuvant in the diagnosis of health problems related to ETW. Therefore, meticulous clinical exams must be performed to establish the correct diagnosis, because swift intervention in the clinical cases presented had a positive impact on halting the erosive process.


Resumen El desgaste dental erosivo corresponde a una pérdida irreversible de tejido duro dental resultante de un proceso químico-mecánico. Este artículo tuvo como objetivo presentar dos casos clínicos de pacientes afectados por desgaste erosivo con diferentes factores etiológicos. Pacientes varones, de 9 y 10 años, acudieron a la clínica dental de odontopediatría para evaluación de rutina. A la exploración clínica, ambos pacientes no presentaban lesiones cariosas y algunas lesiones sugestivas de erosion que presentaban aspectos como un halo translúcido alrededor de la superficie oclusal del diente, además de puntos de punción principalmente en la región cuspídea (lesiones en ventosa) y pérdida del volumen del esmalte dental. Las lesiones se restringieron al esmalte y los pacientes no presentaron hipersensibilidad dentaria. Del examen clínico odontológico y de la anamnesis se aprecia que los dos pacientes presentaban similar pérdida estructural, con diagnóstico de desgaste erosivo, pero un paciente tenía una etiología extrínseca, por alimentación y otro, intrínseco, por trastorno gastroesofágico (TGRE). El paciente fue derivado al especialista para evaluación de la condición sistémica y se diagnosticó la TGRE. Se concluye que el odontólogo tiene un papel importante, como coadyuvante en el diagnóstico de los trastornos de salud relacionados con el desgaste erosivo. Por tanto, se debe realizar un examen clínico minucioso para establecer el diagnóstico correcto, ya que la rápida intervención en los casos clínicos presentados, incidió positivamente en la parálisis del proceso de erosión.


Resumo O desgaste dentário erosivo corresponde a uma perda irreversível do tecido duro dentário resultante de um processo químico-mecânico. O presente artigo teve por objetivo apresentar dois casos clínicos de pacientes afetados pelo desgaste erosivo com fatores etiológicos distintos. Os pacientes do gênero masculino, com 09 e 10 anos, compareceram à clínica odontológica de odontopediatria para avaliação de rotina. Ao exame clínico, ambos os pacientes apresentavam ausência de lesão de cárie e algumas lesões sugestivas de erosão que apresentavam aspectos como halo translúcido ao redor da superfície oclusal do dente, além de pontos socavados principalmente na região de cúspide (lesões de "cupping") e perda do volume do esmalte dentário. As lesões estavam restritas ao esmalte e os pacientes não apresentavam hipersensibilidade dentária. A partir do exame clínico odontológico e anamese pode-se constatar que os dois pacientes apresentavam perdas estruturais semelhantes, com diagnóstico de desgaste erosivo, porém um paciente apresentava etiologia extrínseca, pela alimentação e outro, intrínseca, por distúrbio gastroesofágico (DGRE). O paciente foi encaminhado ao especialista para avaliação do quadro sistêmico, sendo diagnosticado o DGRE. Conclui-se que o cirurgião-dentista tem um papel importante, como coadjuvante no diagnóstico de distúrbios de saúde relacionados ao desgaste erosivo. Portanto, um exame clínico de maneira minuciosa deve ser realizado para estabelecer o diagnóstico correto, visto que, a rápida intervenção nos casos clínicos apresentados, impactaram de forma positiva na paralisação do processo erosivo.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to determine the frequency and severity of dental fluorosis (DF) and the association between severity and risk factors. In a cross-sectional study, 8- to 12-year-old children, born in a Colombian district, were evaluated according to the Thylstrup and Fejerskov Index (TFI) by two calibrated examiners. Molar Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH) and dental caries (DC) were also evaluated. Ordinal logistic regression was applied (p<0.05). Risk factors and lifestyle factors were collected using a questionnaire answered by parents. DF was detected in 76 (98.7%) of the children (average of 18.4 ±1.81 permanent teeth affected). Grade TF2 was the most frequently observed (34.8%); TF5 was observed in all age groups; TF6- TF7 were observed in 12-year-olds. No association was found between DF severity and DC (Odds Ratio (OR)=1.35; 95%CI: 0.56-3.26) or MIH (OR=1.39; 95%CI: 0.43-4.46). DF severity was significantly associated with use of an indoor wood stove for food preparation (OR = 9.34; 95%CI: 1.11-78.57) and use of a pea-sized volume of toothpaste (OR = 27.42; 95%CI: 1.57-477.36). Prevalence of DC was 38.1% and prevalence of MIH was 14.4%. In this population, the frequency of DF was high and severity was associated with use of an indoor wood stove for food preparation and toothpaste amount used during childhood.


RESUMEN El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar la prevalencia y severidad de la Fluorosis Dental (FD) y la asociación de la severidad con factores de riesgo. Mediante un estudio transversal, niños (8-12 años-de-edad), nacidos en Ayapel (El Cedro-Colombia) fueron evaluados por 2 examinadores calibrados, según los criterios del índice de Thylstrup y Fejerskov (TFI) para FD. También se evaluaron la Hipomineralización molar-incisiva (HMI) y la caries dental (CD). Se aplicó un cuestionario de factores de riesgo y estilo de vida, a los padres/responsables de los niños. Se utilizó un modelo de regresión logística ordinal (p<0.05). Se encontró FD en 76 (98.7%) niños (con una media de dientes permanentes afectados de 18.4 ±1.81). La severidad categoría TF2 fue la más observada (34.8%) en los dientes evaluados. Las lesiones que presentan pérdida estructural moderada TF 6-7, fueron evidenciadas en el grupo de edad de 12 años. No se encontró asociación entre la severidad y la CD (OR=1.35; IC95%:0.56-3.26) o con HIM (OR=1.39; IC95%:0.43-4.46). Se encontró una asociación significativa con la severidad de la FD en los niños que utilizaban fogón de leña-interno para la preparación de los alimentos (OR=9.34; IC95%:1.11-78.57) y utilizaban un volumen de crema dental del tamaño de una alverja- pequeña (OR=27.42; IC95%:1.57-477.36). la prevalencia de CD fue 38.1% y de HMI fue 14.4%. La frecuencia de la FD fue alta y la severidad mostró correlación con la utilización de fogón de leña interno para la preparación de los alimentos y la cantidad de crema-dental utilizada.

ABSTRACT

Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the segregation patterns of molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) in families, given the evidence that its etiology is influenced by genetics. Clinically, MIH may be detected in parents and/or siblings of MIH-affected children. Our study included children with at least one first permanent molar affected by MIH (proband) and their first-degree relatives (parents and siblings). The participants were examined clinically to detect MIH, according to the European Academy of Paediatric Dentistry criteria (2003). A total of 101 nuclear families (391 individuals) were studied. Proband diagnosis was followed by MIH classification of the subject, his parents and siblings, as affected, unaffected, or unknown. Segregation analysis was performed using the multivariate logistic regression model of the Statistical Analysis for Genetic Epidemiology package, and segregation models (general transmission, environmental, major gene, dominant, codominant and recessive models). The Akaike information criterion (AIC) was used to evaluate the most parsimonious model. In all, 130 affected individuals, 165 unaffected individuals, and 96 unknown individuals were studied. Severe MIH was found in 50.7% of the cases. A segregation analysis performed for MIH revealed the following different models: environmental and dominance (p = 0.05), major gene (p = 0.04), codominant (p = 0.15) and recessive models (p = 0.03). According to the AIC values, the codominant model was the most parsimonious (AIC = 308.36). Our results suggest that the codominant model could be the most likely for inheriting MIH. This result strengthens the evidence that genetic factors, such as multifactorial complex defect, influence MIH.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Introduction and objective: The Dental Fluorosis (DF) is a development defect of enamel resulting from overexposure to fluoride and can aesthetically compromise the patient. This study aims to investigate the relationship between aesthetic perception and dental fluorosis (DF) in a low-income community with high DF prevalence. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 171 Colombian schoolchildren aged 8 to 12 years living in low socioeconomic community (El Cedro, district of Ayapel, Córdoba, Colombia). After receiving authorization, the students were examined for DMFT and dmft indexes (WHO criteria), and for DF (TF index). The aesthetic perceptions were verified by the Child Perceptions Questionnaire About Tooth Appearance (CQATA). Data analysis was carried out using descriptive statistics, the chi-square test, the Student´s t-test, the one-way ANOVA test, and linear regression at a significance level of p ≤ 0.05. Results: The prevalence of DF in this sample was 84.8% (n=145). Only the presence of caries (DMFT/ deft≠ 0) had a significant impact on aesthetic perceptions. A significantly lower rate was found in girls for the report of pleasant color domain. The number of teeth affected by DF had a significant positive correlation with mean overall perception of dental health. Conclusion: The presence of mild DF in children with low socioeconomic status, from a population with a high prevalence of the condition, did not seem to have an impact on the report of pleasant color of teeth domain.


Resumo Introdução e Objetivo: A fluorose dentária (FD) é um defeito de desenvolvimento do esmalte decorrente da sobre-exposição ao flúor e pode comprometer esteticamente o paciente. O presente estudo se propõe a investigar a relação entre percepção estética e fluorose dentária em uma comunidade de baixa renda com alta prevalência de FD. Materiais e métodos: Foi realizado um estudo transversal com 171 escolares colombianos de 8 a 12 anos de idade, moradores de uma comunidade de baixa renda (El Cedro, distrito de Ayapel, Córdoba, Colômbia). Após receber autorização, os estudantes foram examinados para os índices CPOD e ceod (OMS) e para o FD (TF index). As percepções estéticas foram verificadas pelo "Child Perception Questionaire about Teeth Appearence" (CQATA). A análise dos dados foi realizada por meio de estatística descritiva, teste do qui-quadrado, teste t de Student, teste ANOVA one-way e regressão linear em nível de significância de p ≤ 0,05. Resultados: A prevalência de FD nesta amostra foi de 84,8% (n = 145). Apenas a presença de cáries (CPOD/cpod≠0) teve um impacto significativo nas percepções estéticas. Uma taxa significativamente menor foi encontrada em meninas para o relato de domínio de cor agradável. O número de dentes afetados pela FD teve correlação positiva significativa com a percepção geral da saúde bucal. Conclusão: A presença de FD leve em crianças com baixo nível socioeconômico, de uma população com alta prevalência da doença, não parece ter impacto na satisfação com a coloração dos dentes.

ABSTRACT

Abstract The exposure to amoxicillin has been associated with molar incisor hypomineralization. This study aimed to determine if amoxicillin disturbs the enamel mineralization in in vivo experiments. Fifteen pregnant rats were randomly assigned into three groups to received daily phosphatase-buffered saline or amoxicillin as either 100 or 500 mg/kg. Mice received treatment from day 13 of pregnancy to day 40 postnatal. After birth, the offsprings from each litter continued to receive the same treatment according to their respective group. Calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) content in the dental hard tissues were analyzed from 60 upper first molars and 60 upper incisors by the complexometric titration method and colorimetric analysis using a spectrophotometer at 680 nm, respectively. Lower incisors were analyzed by X-ray microtomography, it was measured the electron density of lingual and buccal enamel, and the enamel and dentin thickness. Differences in Ca and P content and electron density among the groups were analyzed by one-way ANOVA. There was no significant difference on enamel electron density and thickness among the groups (p > 0.05). However, in incisors, the higher dose of amoxicillin decreased markedly the electron density in some rats. There were no statistically significant differences in Ca (p = 0.180) or P content (p = 0.054), although the higher dose of amoxicillin could affect the enamel in some animals. The amoxicillin did not significantly alter the enamel mineralization and thickness in rats.

ABSTRACT

As exodontias são os procedimentos cirúrgicos mais realizados nas graduações de Odontologia. Embora sejam preconizadas técnicas seguras e simples, esse tipo de procedimento não deixa de ser invasivo, sendo passível de acidentes e complicações que dificultam o sucesso do tratamento e até mesmo colocam a saúde do paciente em risco. Essa pesquisa propõe avaliar a frequência de acidentes cirúrgicos transoperatórios em 232 exodontias realizadas no curso de graduação em Odontologia da Faculdade de Ciências Biomédicas de Cacoal, entre julho e outubro de 2015, assim como relacioná los com as características individuais dos elementos extraídos e com a complexidade do caso. Em 71 exodontias realizadas houve a incidência de acidentes transoperatórios. Ocorreram 23 fraturas de coroa, 21 fraturas de raiz, 19 lacerações do tecido gengival, 7 fraturas do osso alveolar, 2 escoriações em pele na comissura labial e 1 luxação do dente vizinho. Esses acidentes prevaleceram principalmente em elementos com raízes longas, finas ou curvas ou com destruição coronária. A maioria dos acidentes já estava prevista pelos operadores, sendo estas facilmente controladas no ato cirúrgico, sem gerar maiores complicações aos pacientes. Concluiu-se que um bom planejamento cirúrgico é fundamental na prevenção e/ou controle dos acidentes transoperatórios... (AU)


The extractions are the most performed procedures in Dentistry graduation course. Although safe and simple techniques are recommended, this procedure does not cease to be invasive and may be subject to accidents and complications that hinder the success of treatment and even put the patient's health at risk. This survey aimed to evaluate the frequency of transoperative surgical accidents in 232 extractions performed in the Dentistry graduation course at the Faculty of Biomedical Sciences of Cacoal, between July and October of 2015, and relate them to the characteristics of the extracted element and the complexity of the case. 71 extractions had transoperative acidentes. There were 23 crown fractures, 21 root fractures, 19 lacerations of the gum tissue, 7 fractures of the alveolar bone, 2 excoriation on the skin in labial commissure and one dislocation of the next tooth. These accidents predominate mainly in elements with long, thin or curved roots or with coronary destruction. Most of the accidents were already predicted by the operators, being these easily controlled in the surgical act, without generating greater complications to the patients. It was also concluded that a good surgical planning is essential in the prevention and / or control of transoperative accidents... (AU)

ABSTRACT

Abstract Even with all the preventive measures used in pediatric dentistry, early childhood caries is a problem faced daily in pediatric dentistry, and mainly affects the vestibular surface of the anterior teeth in children younger than 71 months. The present study reports a case of aesthetic-functional rehabilitation per formed with the help of laboratory-made strip crows and composite in a 5-year-old patient affected by multiple lesions of early childhood caries. Composite resin restorations were performed on all upper anterior teeth to restore aesthetics and function, offering a better quality of life for the child and her family. The preparation of composite resin crowns with the help of strip crowns resulted in a shorter clinical time, a better aesthetic result and the restoration of the patient's smile and self-esteem.


Resumen A pesar de todas las medidas preventivas utilizadas en odontología pediá trica, caries de la primera infancia es un problema que enfrentan todos los días en la odontología pediátrica, y sobre todo afecta a la cara vestibular de los dientes anteriores en niños menores de 71 meses. El presente es tudio reporta un caso de rehabilitación estético-funcional realizado con la ayuda de coronas de acetato hechas en laboratorio y resina compuesta en un paciente de 5 años de edad afectado por múltiples lesiones de caries en la primera infancia. Se realizaron restauraciones de resina compuesta en todos los dientes anteriores superiores para restaurar la estética y la función, ofreciendo una mejor calidad de vida para el niño y su familia. La preparación de coronas de resina compuesta con la ayuda de coronas de tiras dio como resultado un tiempo clínico más corto, un mejor resultado estético y la restauración de la sonrisa y la autoestima del paciente.

ABSTRACT

Resumen El quiste dentígero es el quiste de desarrollo odontogénico más común. Aunque puede afectar cualquier diente incluido, los molares y caninos son los más afectados, seguidos por los premolares e incisivos. Este trabajo tiene como objetivo relatar el caso de una paciente de 11 años de edad quien refería ausencia del segundo premolar inferior derecho (45) en el arco dental. De esa manera, se hizo una revisión de literatura abordando el diagnóstico y tratamiento de esta condición. Luego del el exámen clínico y radiográfico se pudo observar una imagen compatible con un de quiste dentígero, cuyo diagnóstico fue confirmado por el examen histopatológico y tomografía computarizada de haz cónico (cone beam). Fue realizado un procedimiento quirúrgico conservador de descompresión utilizando el resultado de la tomografía como guía quirúrgica. Después de 4 meses de seguimiento clínico y radiográfico, se realizó la enucleación de la lesión por curetaje. Se hizo seguimiento de la paciente durante 3 años hasta la erupción completa del diente 45 y su alineación en el arco. No se observaron lesiones y el tratamiento ortodóntico fue eficaz. La técnica de descompresión quirúrgica fue segura, evitó daños de otras estructuras importantes y proporcionó una rápida recuperación de la paciente.


Resumo O cisto dentígero é o cisto de desenvolvimento odontogênico mais comum. Pode envolver qualquer dente incluso, embora molares e caninos sejam os mais afetados, seguidos pelos pré-molares e incisivos. Este trabalho tem como objetivo relatar o caso de uma paciente de 11 anos de idade com queixa de ausência do segundo pré-molar inferior direito (45) no arco dentário. Assim, uma revisão da literatura abordando o diagnóstico e tratamento desta condição é apresentada. No exame clínico e radiográfico pode-se notar imagem sugestiva de cisto dentígero, entretanto o diagnóstico foi confirmado por exame histopatológico e tomografia computadorizada de feixe cônico (cone beam). Optou-se por procedimento cirúrgico conservador de descompressão utilizando o exame cone beam como guia cirúrgico. Depois de 4 meses de acompanhamento clínico e radiográfico foi realizada a enucleação da lesão por curetagem. A paciente foi acompanhada durante 3 anos até a erupção completa do dente 45 e seu alinhamento no arco. Nenhuma lesão foi registrada e o tratamento ortodôntico mostrou-se eficaz. A técnica de descompressão cirúrgica foi segura, evitou danos a estruturas nobres e proporcionou uma rápida recuperação da paciente.


Abstract Dentigerous cyst is the most common developmental odontogenic cyst. It can involve any included tooth, although molars and canines are most frequently affected, followed by premolars and incisors. The aim of this article was to report the case of an 11-year-old female patient complaining of an eruption delay of a mandibular second premolar (45). Therefore, a literature review regarding the diagnosis and treatment of this condition is presented. At clinical and radiographic examination, the image suggested a dentigerous cyst; however, the diagnosis was confirmed by histopathological and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) exams. Surgical planning was carried out using a conservative method involving surgical decompression. CBCT was used as a surgical guide. At 4-month clinical and radiographic follow-up, cystic enucleation was performed by curettage. The patient was followed for 3 years until complete eruption and alignment of the teeth occurred. No lesion was recorded, and orthodontic treatment was proven to be successful. The surgical decompression was completely safe, avoiding damage in important structures, and resulted in rapid recovery of the patient.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Relacionar a percepção estética e a qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde bucal na presença de cárie dentária em escolares. Métodos: Estudo transversal realizado em Araraquara, São Paulo, Brasil, entre outubro de 2014 e março de 2015, com 260 escolares, de 8 a 10 anos, divididos em grupos clínicos segundo a presença de cárie dentária. Utilizaram-se questionários "Child Perceptions Questionnaire" e "Child Questionnaire About Teeth Appearence" e avaliação clínica para detecção de dentes cariados, perdidos ou obturados em dentes permanentes e decíduos. Dados analisados através do teste qui-quadrado e Mann Whitney, p ≤ 0.05. Resultados: Dos 260 escolares, 130 (50%) apresentavam a doença cárie, com maior frequência (62,0%) na faixa etária 8 anos. Variáveis socioeconômicas, como menor renda familiar e menor escolaridade da mãe, estiveram associadas ao grupo com cárie (p<0,05 e p<0,01 respectivamente). No grupo com cárie, os domínios sintomas orais (4,9 vs 6,6), bem-estar emocional (3,0 vs 4,7) e bem-estar social (2,2 vs 3,5) foram maiores que no grupo sem cárie. Com relação à percepção estética, o domínio psicológico (0,94 vs 1,27) e a percepção geral de saúde bucal (2,26 vs 2,93) se apresentaram maiores no grupo com cárie. Na regressão linear, observou-se contribuição significativa dos números de dentes permanentes cariados e o índice ceo-d (dentes decíduos cariados, extraídos e obturados) na pior percepção de qualidade de vida. Conclusão: A cárie dentária afeta negativamente a percepção estética e a qualidade de vida em crianças de 8 a 10 anos.


Objetive: To relate the aesthetic perception and the oral health-related quality of life in the presence of dental caries in schoolchildren. Methods: Cross-sectional study carried out in Araraquara, São Paulo, Brazil, from October 2014 to March 2015, with 260 schoolchildren aged 8 to 10 years, divided into clinical groups according to the presence of dental caries. The Child Perceptions Questionnaire and the Child Questionnaire About Teeth Appearance were applied and a clinical evaluation of permanent and deciduous dentition was conducted for detection of decayed, missing or filled teeth. Data was analyzed using the chi-square test and Mann-Whitney's test, p ≤ 0.05. Results: Of the 260 students, 130 (50%) had caries disease, with the highest frequency (62.0%) in 8-year-olds. Socioeconomic variables, such as lower family income and lower maternal schooling, were associated with the dental caries group (p<0.05 and p<0.01, respectively). In the dental caries group, the domains oral symptoms (4.9 vs 6.6), emotional well-being (3.0 vs 4.7) and social well-being (2.2 vs 3.5) were higher than in the caries-free group. Regarding the aesthetic perception, the psychological domain (0.94 vs 1.27) and the overall perception of oral health (2.26 vs 2.93) were higher in the group with dental caries. In the linear regression, there was a significant contribution of the number of permanent decayed teeth and the dmft (decayed, missing and filled deciduous teeth) index to the worst perception of quality of life. Conclusion: Dental caries negatively affects aesthetic perception and quality of life in 8- to 10-year-old children.

Métodos: Estudio transversal realizado en Araraquara, São Paulo, Brasil, entre octubre de 2014 y marzo de 2015 con 260 escolares entre 8 y 10 años que fueron divididos en grupos clínicos según la presencia de caries dental. Se utilizaron los cuestionarios "Child Perceptions Questionnaire" y "Child Questionnaire About Teeth Appearence" y la evaluación clínica para detectar los dientes con caries, los perdidos u con obturaciones en dientes permanentes y deciduos. Los datos fueron analizados a través de las pruebas Chi-cuadrado y Mann Whitney con p ≤ 0,05. Resultados: Entre los 260 escolares, 130 (50%) tenían caries con más frecuencia en la franja de edad de 8 años (62,0%). Las variables socioeconómicas como la menor renta familiar y menor escolaridad de la madre se asociaron con el grupo que tenía caries (p<0,05 y p<0,01 respectivamente). Los dominios síntomas orales (4,9 vs 6,6), el bien estar emocional (3,0 vs 4,7) y el bien estar social (2,2 vs 3,5) fueron mayores en el grupo con caries que el grupo sin caries. Respecto la percepción estética, el dominio psicológico (0,94 vs 1,27) y la percepción general de salud bucal (2,26 vs 2,93) se presentaron mayores en el grupo con caries. A partir de la regresión linear se observó la contribución significativa de los números de dientes permanentes con caries y el índice ceo-d (dientes deciduos con caries, extraídos y con obturación) para la peor percepción de calidad de vida. Conclusión: La caries dental afecta de manera negativa la percepción de la estética y la calidad de vida de niños entre 8 y 10 años.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Dental fluorosis is a developmental defect of enamel caused by chronic and excessive fluoride intake resulting in a hypomineralized enamel with increased porosity. It is clinically identified as spots ranging from mild white lines to opaque spots covering all or part of the enamel surface and breakdown after teeth eruption. However, the clinical definition of the fluorosis degree in teeth is not an easy task, having been presented many indices that generally qualify the severity degree with variations in the details. As the choice of treatment is closely linked to the defect severity, the purpose of this article is to present the clinical aspects of dental fluorosis represented through the Thylstrup-Fejerskov Index. The severity scores are presented according to histological features and the differences between them will be discussed in order to enable the dentist to correctly diagnose and choose the most appropriate treatment for the patient with DF.


Resumo A fluorose dental (FD) é um defeito de desenvolvimento do esmalte causado pela ingestão crônica e excessiva de flúor, resultando em um esmalte hipomineralizado com maior porosidade. Clinicamente é identificada como manchas que vão desde delicadas linhas brancas até manchas opacas que cobrem parte ou toda a superfície do esmalte podendo sofrer pigmentações ou fraturas após a irrupção. No entanto, a definição clínica do grau de comprometimento dos dentes não é uma tarefa fácil e tem sido apresentada na forma de índices que geralmente qualificam o grau de severidade com maior ou menor detalhes. Como a escolha do tratamento está intimamente ligada à gravidade do defeito, o objetivo deste artigo é apresentar os aspectos clínicos da fluorose dental representadas por meios do índice de Thylstrup-Fejerskov (1978). Os escores de severidade são apresentadas de acordo com as características histológicas e as diferenças entre eles serão discutidas a fim de permitir ao dentista diagnosticar corretamente e escolher o tratamento mais adequado para o paciente com FD.


Resumen La fluorosis dental (FD) es un defecto del desarrollo del esmalte dental causado por la ingesta crónica y excesiva de fluoruro, que resulta en un esmalte hipomineralizado y poroso. Clínicamente se manifiesta desde manchas y delicadas líneas blancas hasta manchas opacas que cubren parte o toda la superficie del esmalte, el cual es susceptible a pigmentaciones o fracturas post-eruptivas. Sin embargo, establecer el grado de compromiso de los dientes no es una tarea fácil y para esto se han presentado índices que determinan el grado de severidad con mayor o menor detalle. Como la decisión de tratamiento está estrechamente relacionada a la gravedad del defecto, el objetivo de este artículo es presentar los aspectos clínicos de la fluorosis dental de acuerdo al índice de Thylstrup-Fejerskov (1978). Los grados de severidad son representados de acuerdo con las características histológicas y las diferencias entre ellos son discutidas para que el odontólogo pueda diagnosticas correctamente y escoger el tratamiento más adecuado para el paciente con FD.

ABSTRACT

Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate the clinical survival of sealants applied in first permanent molars (FPMs) affected by molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH), at 18 months of follow-up. Forty-one first permanent molars were selected from 21 children, 6–8 years of age. MIH was classified by one calibrated examiner (kappa = 0.80) according to EAPD criteria. The inclusion criteria were fully erupted FPMs with MIH or sound FPMs (without MIH) for which sealant treatment was indicated. The FPMs were assigned to two groups: CG (control group) and HG (MIH group). Both groups were treated with sealant (FluroShield). Clinical follow-up was performed from baseline to 18 months to assess anatomical form, marginal adaptation, retention and presence of caries, according to criteria set by the United States Public Health Service-Modified, and was conducted by a blinded examiner (kappa = 0.80). The actuarial method was used to evaluate the survival of the sealants. The survival rates for the groups were compared using Fisher’s exact test (α = 5%). The cumulative survival rates were 81% at 1 month, 68.8% at 6 months, 68.8% at 12 months, and 62.6% at 18 months for CG, and 88% at 1 month, 84% at 6 months, 76% at 12 months, and 72% at 18 months for HG. No significant difference was found between the groups. The sealants in molars affected by MIH presented a survival rate similar to the sealants in the control, suggesting that sealants may be an adequate approach for preventing carious lesions in MIH-affected molars.

ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the 12-month clinical performance of glass ionomer restorations in teeth with MIH. First permanent molars affected by MIH (48) were restored with glass ionomer cement (GIC) and evaluated at baseline, at 6 and at 12 months, by assessing tooth enamel breakdown, GIC breakdown and caries lesion associations. The data were analyzed using the chi-square test and actuarial survival analysis. The likelihood of a restored tooth remaining unchanged at the end of 12 months was 78%. No statistically significant difference was observed in the association between increased MIH severity and caries at baseline (p > 0.05) for a 6-month period, or between increased MIH severity and previous unsatisfactory treatment at baseline (p > 0.05) for both a 6- and 12-month period. A statistically significant difference was observed in the association between increased MIH severity and extension of the restoration, involving 2 or more surfaces (p < 0.05) at both periods, and between increased MIH severity and caries at baseline (p < 0.05) at a 12-month period. Because the likelihood of maintaining the tooth structures with GIC restorations is high, invasive treatment should be postponed until the child is sufficiently mature to cooperate with the treatment, mainly of teeth affected on just one face.

ABSTRACT

La Hipomineralización Molar-Incisivo (HMI) es un defecto de esmalte de origen sistèmico que afecta uno o varios molares permanentes, asociado en algunos casos a los incisivos permanentes. Defectos de esmalte, como la HMI pueden influenciar negativamente la calidad de vida, percepción estètica y autoestima de niños y adolescentes. Las opciones de tratamiento para este tipo de alteración, incluye desde medidas preventivas y procedimientos restauradores hasta la extracción dental. Factores como la edad y expectativas del paciente, severidad de la alteración y materiales deben ser considerados en el plan de tratamiento del paciente con HMI. La utilización de resinas compuestas para la restauración de molares e incisivos ha mostrado buenos resultados relacionados a la durabilidad y estètica. Este artículo presenta dos casos clínicos sobre el abordaje de la HMI en dientes anteriores, realizando preparos cavitários conservadores por medio de puntas ultrasónicas adaptadas a un sistema de ultrasonido y restauración con resina compuesta, obteniendo resultados estéticos favorables con un año de acompañamiento.


Molar-Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH) is a qualitative developmental enamel defect that affects one to four permanent first molars, with or without involvement of permanent incisors. Enamel defects may produce many symptoms that have physical, social and psychological effects and influence day-to-day living or quality of life. The available treatment modalities for teeth with MIH are extensive, ranging from prevention, restoration, to extraction. Factors such as age, patient expectations, severity of the lesion and materials should be considered in the treatment of the patient with MIH. Restoration with composite resin is an alternative choice for posterior and anterior MIH defective teeth and its use has been show acceptable results. This article describes two clinical cases involving pediatric patients with MIH whose procedure of cavity preparation was based on the use of CVD ultrasound diamond tips and restored using composite resin obtaining favorable esthetics results after a 1 year follow-up.

ABSTRACT

AIM: To evaluate the clinical and radiographic success of endodontic treatment in human primary teeth with necrotic pulp with and without radiographically visible furcal/periapical lesion treated with a calcium hydroxide (CH) and chlorhexidine (CHX) intracanal dressing. The tested hypothesis was that there is no difference in the clinical and radiographic success in primary teeth medicated with CH pastes prepared with polyethylene glycol (PEG) or CHX. METHODS: Thirty-two teeth with necrotic pulp were used in this randomized clinical study: 12 without and 20 with lesion. Canals were prepared and medicated with CH pastes with polyethylene glycol (CH/PEG) (n=16) or 2% CHX gel (CH/CHX) (n=16). Definitive filling was done after 30 days. The teeth were clinically and radiographically examined during 12 months to determine the success of the endodontic therapy. Data from clinical and radiographic examination of the initial condition and 12 months after treatment were compared using the Z test (α = 0.05). RESULTS: There was no significant difference (p>0.05) in the success rate of teeth with and without lesion medicated with CH/PEG or CH/CHX. No significant difference (p>0.05) was found between the pastes regardless of the presence of lesion. CONCLUSIONS: Combination of CHX and CH was not more effective than the CH/PEG paste, as similar clinical and radiographic success rate was observed in teeth medicated with either type of intracanal dressing.

ABSTRACT

Although sucking activity has been considered an essential behavior of early childhood to satisfy nutritive and non-nutritive needs, digit andpacifier sucking are deleterious oral habits that may interfere with child development. Furthermore, this clinical picture may be compounded by other concerning habits, such as self-mutilating behavior. This article reports 4-year follow-up of a child in whom non-nutritive sucking was associated with an unusual self-mutilating behavior; namely, the child would pull out her own hair after wrapping it around her finger every time she sucked on the pacifier. This occurred specially at bedtime, while she was watching TV, or when she was somewhat anxious, and remitted and recurred throughout the follow-up period. In an attempt to address this behavior, pacifier use was discontinued and the child?s head was shaved. Ultimately, the case was only solved through combined efforts involving the child, her family, and health professionals. Based on the parents? reports and clinical examination and follow-up findings, we emphasize the importance of investigating the origin of the problem and considering emotional aspects and its association with other habits in such cases.


Apesar de a atividade de sucção ser considerada um comportamento essencial da primeira infância por satisfazer as necessidades nutritivase não-nutritivas, a sucção do dedo e chupeta são hábitos deletérios ao desenvolvimento da criança. Além disso, esse quadro clínico podeser ainda mais preocupante se houver associação com outros hábitos, como o da automutilação. Neste contexto, no presente artigo sãorelatados 4 anos de acompanhamento de uma criança que costumava arrancar seus cabelos depois de enrolá-los nos dedos enquanto estavacom a chupeta na boca, sem demonstrar sinal algum de sintomatologia dolorosa. Tal fato ocorria especialmente próximo a períodos de sono, ansiedade ou quando assistia à televisão, havendo períodos de remissão e exacerbação. Na tentativa de solucionar o caso foi proposta, além da interrupção do uso da chupeta, a raspagem de todo o cabelo da criança. Contudo, a solução definitiva só foi possível quando houve o envolvimento coletivo, abrangendo criança, família e profissionais da saúde. Baseando-se no relato dos pais, no exame clínico e no acompanhamento do caso, enfatiza-se a importância de se investigar a origem do problema, considerando os aspectos emocionais e sua associação com outros hábitos.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to compare dental size measurements, their reproducibility and the application of Tanaka and Johnston regression equation in predicting the size of canines and premolars on plaster and digital dental casts. METHODS: Thirty plaster casts were scanned and digitized. Mesiodistal measurements of the teeth were then performed with a digital caliper on the plaster and digital casts using O3d software system (Widialabs©).The sum of the sizes of the lower incisors was used to obtain predictive values of the sizes of the premolars and canines using the regression equation, and these values were compared with the actual sizes of the teeth. The data were statistically analyzed by applying to the results Pearson's correlation test, Dahlberg's formula, paired t-test and analysis of variance (p<0.05). RESULTS: Excellent intraexaminer agreement was observed in the measurements performed on both dental casts. No random error was present in the measurements obtained with the caliper and systematic error (bias) was more frequent in the digital casts. Space prediction obtained by applying the regression equation was greater than the sum of the canines and premolars on the plaster and digital casts. CONCLUSIONS: Despite an adequate reproducibility of the measurements performed on both casts, most measurements on the digital casts were higher than those on the plaster casts. The predicted space was overestimated in both models and significantly higher in the digital casts.


OBJETIVO: comparar medidas de tamanhos dentários, suas reprodutibilidades e a aplicação da equação de regressão de Tanaka e Johnston na predição do tamanho dos caninos e pré-molares em modelos de gesso e digital. MÉTODOS: trinta modelos de gesso foram escaneados para obtenção dos modelos digitais. As medidas do comprimento mesiodistal dos dentes foram obtidas com paquímetro digital nos modelos de gesso e nos modelos digitais utilizando o software O3d (Widialabs). A somatória do tamanho dos incisivos inferiores foi utilizada para obter os valores de predição do tamanho dos pré-molares e caninos utilizando equação de regressão, e esses valores foram comparados ao tamanho real dos dentes. Os dados foram analisados estatisticamente, aplicando-se aos resultados o teste de correlação de Pearson, a fórmula de Dahlberg, o teste t pareado e a análise de variância (p < 0,05). RESULTADOS: excelente concordância intraexaminador foi observada nas medidas realizadas em ambos os modelos. O erro aleatório não esteve presente nas medidas obtidas com paquímetro, e o erro sistemático foi mais frequente no modelo digital. A previsão de espaço obtida pela aplicação da equação de regressão foi maior que a somatória dos pré-molares e caninos presentes nos modelos de gesso e nos modelos digitais. CONCLUSÃO: apesar da boa reprodutibilidade das medidas realizadas em ambos os modelos, a maioria das medidas dos modelos digitais foram superiores às do modelos de gesso. O espaço previsto foi superestimado em ambos os modelos e significativamente maior nos modelos digitais.

ABSTRACT

A Hipomineralização molar-incisivo é um defeito qualitativo do tecido dental, de origem sistêmica, que afeta um ou mais primeiros molares permanentes e, por vezes, os incisivos permanentes. Ainda não há dados conclusivos sobre a etiologia desta hipomineralização, no entanto, os fatores sistêmicos, como doenças respiratórias e complicações prénatais e perinatais são considerados como possíveis causas. O objetivo deste estudo é apresentar três casos clínicos de crianças gemelares, sendo um casal de gêmeos monozigóticos, e dois gêmeos dizigóticos com a alteração de hipomineralização molar-incisivo, além de mostrar evidências de sua manifestação, bem como as características clínicas e os fatores etiológicos envolvidos. Os achados clínicos envolvendo gêmeos mostram que ameloblastos são especificamente afetados em sua fase de desenvolvimento, que inclui uma série de fatores, como complicações pré-natais e perinatais, porém não decisivos no desenvolvimento da alteração e sugere ainda uma possível susceptibilidade genética para a esta doença. São necessários estudos observacionais prospectivos utilizando uma amostra da população, contendo dados sobre os últimos três meses de gestação até a erupção dos dentes permanentes para confirmar as possíveis relações de causa-efeito.


Molar-incisor hypomineralisation is a qualitative defect of dental tissue of systemic origin affecting one or more permanent first molars and sometimes the permanent incisors as well. There are still no conclusive data on the aetiology of this hypomineralisation, however, systemic factors such as respiratory diseases and prenatal and perinatal complications are regarded as possible causes. The objective is to present three clinical cases of twins, one Monozygotic and two Dizygotic Twins with molar-incisor hypomineralisation, showing evidence of its manifestation as well as clinical the characteristics and aetiological factors involved. The clinical findings involving twins suggest that ameloblasts are specifically affected in their developmental phase, which includes a number of factors. Although prenatal and perinatal complications are not decisive in the development of molar-incisor hypomineralization, it is suggested a possible genetic susceptibility to the disease. Prospective observational studies using a population sample containing data on the last three months of gestation to the eruption of permanent teeth are needed to confirm the causeeffect relationships.

ABSTRACT

Distúrbios genéticos durante o desenvolvimento dentário influenciam na variação do número e formada dentição. Este é o primeiro estudo a avaliar se a variação genética nos genes da formação do esmalte dentário está associada com a Hipomineralização Molar-Incisivo (HMI), levando também em consideração, a experiência de cárie. Amostras de DNA de 71 casos (com HMI) e 89 controles (não afetados) de Araraquara/SP (Brasil) foram analisadas. Onze marcadores em cinco genes [ameloblastina (AMBN), amelogenina (AMELX), enamelina (ENAM), tuftelina (TUFT1), e proteína 11 interagindo com tuftelina (TFIP11)] foram genotipados pelo método TaqMan. O teste Qui-quadrado foi utilizado para comparar as frequências alélicas e genotípicas entre os grupos caso e controle. A experiência de cárie no grupo HMI também foi avaliada para a associação com a variação genética nos genes da formação do esmalte. Os marcadores rs3796704 (ENAM), rs4694075 (AMBN); rs5997096/rs134136 (TFIP11), foram associados com a HMI (p<0.05). Associações dos marcadores rs5997096/rs134136(TFIP11), rs12640848/rs3796704 (ENAM) e rs17878486 (AMELX) (p<0.05) com a cárie dentária foram observadas. O presente estudo sugere possibilidade de associação entre o esmalte hipomineralizado e variação genética nos genes da formação do esmalte dentário


Genetic disturbances during dental development influence variation of number and shape of the dentition. This is the first study that tested if genetic variation in enamel formation genes is associated with molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH), also taking into consideration caries experience. DNA samples from 71 cases with MIH and 89 unaffected controls from Araraquara/SP (Brazil) were studied. Eleven markers in five genes [ameloblastin (AMBN), amelogenin (AMELX), enamelin (ENAM), tuftelin (TUFT1), and tuftelin-interacting protein 11 (TFIP11)] were genotyped by the TaqMan method. Chi-square was used to compare allele and genotype frequencies between cases with MIH and controls. Distinct caries experience within the MIH group was also tested for association with genetic variation in enamel formation genes. The markers, rs3796704 (ENAM), rs4694075 (AMBN); rs5997096/rs134136 (TFIP11), were associated with MIH (p<0.05). Associations between rs5997096/rs134136 (TFIP11), rs12640848/rs3796704 (ENAM) e rs17878486 (AMELX) (p<0.05) markers could be seen with caries. This study suggests a possible association between hypomineralized enamel and genetic variation in the genes of the enamel formation

ABSTRACT

Definir el perfil de los académicos en Odontología, cuanto al acogimiento de los pacientes/usuarios atendidos en la Institución, en el ámbito de las directrices del SUS. Métodos: Fue aplicado un cuestionario Se aplicó un cuestionario estructurado a 163 estudiantes, con cuestiones que englobaban cinco variables (recepción, diálogo y escucha, actuación y cuidado, primer contacto e identidad profesional). Fue realizado una entrevista para verificar la coherencia de respuestas obtenidas durante la primera fase. Los datos cuantitativos fueron tabulados y analizados por estadística descriptiva en el programa Epi-Info (versión 6.0) y los datos cualitativos analizados por medio del discurso del sujeto colectivo. Resultados: Fue verificado que, intelectualmente, la mayoría de los académicos (70,7%) entienden el concepto y la repercusión del proceso de acogimiento en salud y muchos poseen características de cuidadores. El sistema pedagógico formativo, centrado en el tecnicismo, puede dificultar o sistematizar una acción acogedora espontánea e integral. Conclusión: Los académicos poseen perfil acogedor, pero existe una necesidad de mayor motivación de humanización en la educación universitaria.


To define the profile of Dentistry's academics, on the welcoming reception of patients/users attended in the Public Institution, under the guidelines of the SUS. Methods: A structured questionnaire was applied to 163 students, which contained questions that covered five variables (reception, dialogue and listening, action and care first contact, professional identity) and conducted an interview to associate to responses obtained during the first phase. Quantitative data were tabulated and analyzed by descriptive statistics in SPSS 16.0 and qualitative data analyzed through discourse of the collective subject. Results: It was observed that, intellectually, the most of student (70.7%) understand the concept and the repercussion of the welcoming reception process in health and many have caring characteristics. However, the pedagogic system formation makes it difficult or systemizes an integral and spontaneous welcoming action. Conclusions: The academics have the embracement profile but it is need more motivation in the humanization of the university teaching.

ABSTRACT

Um dos grandes desafios atuais da Odontologia é o tratamento dos pacientes com o defeito de esmalte conhecido como Hipomineralização Molar-Incisivo (HMI), que está intimamente relacionado com o desenvolvimento de lesão cariosa. Os fatores etiológicos envolvidos ainda não estão totalmente elucidados. Alterações sistêmicas que sensibilizam os ameloblastos no período entre o último trimestre gestacional e os três primeiros anos de vida podem estar associadas ao defeito do esmalte. Contudo, existe uma grande questão na literatura com relação a um possível padrão genético de transmissibilidade, pois a HMI pode se tratar de uma condição autossômica recessiva ou até mesmo, uma forma desconhecida de amelogênese imperfeita. Diante da complexidade de variáveis que envolvem a referida condição, o intuito do presente artigo é relatar as características da doença no sentido de contribuir para o seu diagnóstico, por meio da apresentação de dois casos acompanhados na Clínica de Pós-Graduação da Faculdade de Odontologia de Araraquara-Unesp.


One of the main challenges of Dentistry is the treatment of patients with a enamel defects known as Molar-Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH), which is closely related to the developmentof caries lesions. The etiological factors involved are not yet fully elucidated.Systemic conditions that sensitize the ameloblasts in the period between the last trimester of pregnancy and the first three years of life may be associated with enamel defects. However, there is a big issue in the literature regarding a possible genetic pattern of transmission, because the HMI can deal with an autosomal recessive condition or evenan unknown amelogenesis imperfecta form. Given the complexity of variables involving this condition, the aim of this paper is to report the disease characteristics in order to contribute to the diagnosis, by presenting two cases followed at the Graduate Clinic atAraraquara School of Dentistry -UNESP.
