ABSTRACT

Introduction and Objective: This study aimed to evaluate, in vitro, the filling ability of lateral canals after main canal obturation through three different endodontic sealers. Material and methods: Thirty single-rooted pre-molars were used and, six lateral canals were constructed on proximal surfaces and arranged in pairs at 3, 5 and 7 mm from the apex. After chemo-mechanical preparation, with size #40 memory instrument, the teeth were randomly assigned to three experimental groups, according to the root canal sealer applied: Endofill® (group A), Sealer 26® (group B) and MTA Fillapex® (group C). In all groups, we used active lateral condensation technique with gutta-percha associated with sealer. After obturation, the teeth were radiographed at buccolingual direction and the images were digitized. The analysis of endodontic sealer plug near the lateral canals was performed by calculating the area through Image Tool® software. Results and Conclusion: The data were subjected to parametric (Anova), and nonparametric (Kruskal-Wallis) tests, with significance level of 5%. There was no difference among the tested sealers for filling the lateral canals. Concerning to the positions of lateral canals, no differences were also found among sealer types, except at 7 mm from the apex, where MTA Fillapex® showed a significantly greater filling than Sealer 26®.

ABSTRACT

Introduction and Objective: The objective of this study was to analyze, in vitro, the remaining tissue at the risk zone in the mesial canals of the mandibular molars after cervical flaring using LA AXXESS® drill. Material and methods: Thirty molars were randomly divided into two experimental groups. Twenty teeth received cervical flaring using LA AXXESS® drill (group A), and ten were kept as control group (group B) without undergoing any kind of flaring. The teeth had their mesial roots cross-sectioned at a 3.5 mm standardized height apical to the cementum junction. Specimens were scanned and analyzed by a professional previously trained and calibrated. In order to measure the distances of the remaining tissue in relation to the furca, a Photoshop® program ruler version 7.0 was used. Results and Conclusion: It was possible, through statistical analysis using Student's t-test for paired and independent samples with a 5% significance level, to verify that there was no difference regarding the remaining tissue at the risk zone between the group that had cervical flaring and the control group.

ABSTRACT

Os casos de fraturas radiculares são extremamente graves em Odontologia e requerem, além de um preciso diagnóstico, o pronto e correto atendimento para que se possa obter um bom prognóstico do caso. Paciente do sexo masculino, 30 anos de idade compareceu ao consultório odontológico após um traumatismo do incisivo central superior direito permanente. O dente foi examinado, executados testes semiotécnicos, radiografia periapical e troca da contenção. Decorridos sete dias, executou-se o preparo do canal e medicação com pasta de hidróxido de cálcio. Após quatro meses, procedeu-se a obturação da porção coronária e posterior proservação do caso por dois anos, constatando-se normalidade dos tecidos e reparo da área da fratura. Nos casos de trauma dental que envolve fratura radicular é precípuo que se faça o diagnóstico da mesma e uma contenção rígida o mais breve possível para estabilizar o fragmento na região. Neste caso reportado, o curto espaço de tempo que o fragmento dental ficou fora do alvéolo, a colocação da medicação intracanal e uma correta imobilização foram fatores determinantes para o bom prognóstico.


The cases of root fractures in odontology are extremely serious and require, besides of an accurate diagnosis, the immediate and correct assistance in order to get a good prognostic of the case. A male, 30 years old, went to the dentist office after a permanent right maxillary central incisor trauma. The tooth was examined and semiotechnique tests were done, periapical and exchange of contention. After seven days, it was made a canal preparation and medication with calcium hydroxide paste. After four months, it was arranged in the filling of the coronal portion and later proservation of the case for two years, and we noted the normal tissue and repair the fracture area. In cases of dental trauma involving root fracture, it is preciput that we make the same diagnosis and a rigid restraint as soon as possible to stabilize the fragment in the region. In this case reported, the short time that the tooth fragment was out of the socket placement of an intracanal medication and right immobilization were crucial factors for good prognosis.

ABSTRACT

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a atividade antimicrobiana do paramonoclorofenol canforado (PMCC), por contato direto e vapor contra o Enterococcus faecalis e Staphylococcus aureus. O método empregado foi o de difusão em ágar. Utilizaram-se dez dentes humanos extraidos (caninos superiores e inferiores, pré-molares superiores e inferiores), que foram transfixados a placas de Petry com resina acrílica auto-polimerizável, de forma que as coroas dentais ficassem acima da tampa destas placas. Ao redor dos ápices radiculares foi colado um cilindro de vidro de, aproximadamente, 5mm de diâmetro e 1,5 cm de altura. O teste por contato direto foi realizado com discos de papel filtro embebidos em 3µL de PMCC colocados diretamente sobre o meio de cultura inoculado com os microrganismos. Para o teste por vapor, o PMCC foi levado ao interior do canal com um cone de papel absorvente #40, onde permaneceu por 24 horas. Os resultados revelaram que o medicamento apresentou efeito antimicrobiano após contato direto com as culturas, formando halos de inibição bacteriana. Em relação aos vapores liberados pelo produto, pôde-se constatar que não houve nenhuma ação por vapor quando o fármaco esteve no canal radicular, pois houve crescimento bacteriano próximo a região do ápice radicular.


The aim of this study was to evaluate antibacterial activity of the canphorated paramonochorophenol (PMCC) by direct contact and vapor against Enterococcus faecalis and Staphylococcus aureus. The test of agar difusion was the method used. It were used human extracted teeth (maxillary and mandibulary canines and maxillary and mandibulary pre-molars) that were fixed on Petri slabs by acrylic resin in order to keep the tooth crown above of the slab cover. A glass cylinder (5 mm of diameter and 1,5 cm of height) was fixed around the root apex was fixed. The direct contact test was realized by papers disks were soaked with PMCC (3 µL) that put directly in contact with the agar. For the steam test, we put a paper point into canal root soaked with PMCC (3µL) that remained per 24 hours. The results showed that the PMCC was effective against micoorganisms when in direct contact with them, with zones of bacterial inhibition. Regarding the release of vapor by PMCC into de canal root, there was no any reaction, because there was bacterial growth.

ABSTRACT

Introdução e objetivo: Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar a influência do grau de curvatura na ocorrência de desvios apicais após a realização do preparo oscilatório. Material e métodos: Utilizaram-se 20 canais simulados com 21 mm de comprimento, os quais foram divididos em dois grupos experimentais com curvaturas de 20° e 40°. Os canais foram preparados com instrumentos de aço inoxidável acoplados a um contra-ângulo de sistema automatizado de movimentos oscilatórios com redução da velocidade de 10:1. Para a realização da análise do desvio, antes e após o preparo, os canais foram preenchidos com tinta nanquim e fotografados de forma padronizada com o auxílio de uma plataforma. Em seguida, as imagens obtidas foram manipuladas no programa Adobe Photoshop®, sobrepondo a imagem pré e pós-operatória, e com a ferramenta régua fez-se a medição dos desvios a 1 mm do comprimento de trabalho e no meio da área de curvatura. Os dados obtidos foram submetidos à Análise de Variância (Anova) com nível de significância de 5%. Resultados e conclusão: Por meio dos resultados obtidos observou-se que, quanto maior o grau de curvatura, maior foi o desvio. Já em relação ao local de análise, notou-se que na região a 1 mm do comprimento de trabalho houve maior desvio do que no ponto localizado no meio da área de curvatura.


Introduction and objective: This study aims to analyze the influence of degree of curvature in the occurrence of apical deviations after the oscillatory preparation. Material and methods: Twenty simulated root canals of 21 mm in length were divided into two experimental groups according to the degree of curvature: 20° and 40°. The canals were prepared using stainless steel instruments connected to a 10:1 speed reducing contra-angle handpiece with an automatized system of oscillatory movement. When analyzing the deviation, canals were filled with India ink and photographed in a standardized way with the aid of a platform, before and after the accomplishment of the preparation. In sequence, the images obtained were manipulated in Photoshop® Adobe program, preoperative and postoperative images were overlapped, and the deviation was measured with a ruler within 1 mm of working length and in the halfway of curvature. Data were submitted to analysis of variance (Anova) with a significance level of 5%. Results and conclusion: Through the results obtained, it was possible to see that the greater the degree of curvature, the greater the deviation. In relation to the place of analysis, it was possible to realize that there was more deviation in the region of 1 mm of working length than in the halfway of curvature.

ABSTRACT

This in vitro study evaluated (1) the dissolution of bovine pulp tissue in solutions consisting of varying NaOCl concentrations and combined with EDTA; and (2) the pH of these solutions before and after the experiment. The independent variables were the concentration and the volume of the solution. Thirty bovine pulps were divided in equal fragments, resulting in 90 fragments of pulp tissue. Each fragment was immersed in one of the following solutions: 1 percent NaOCl (4 ml), 2.5 percent NaOCl (4 ml), 1 percent NaOCl + 17 percent EDTA (2 ml : 2 ml), 1 percent NaOCl + 17 percent EDTA (1 ml : 3 ml), 2.5 percent NaOCl + 17 percent EDTA (2 ml : 2 ml), and 2.5 percent NaOCl + 17 percent EDTA (1 ml : 3 ml). The test solutions were dichotomized as either able or not able to dissolve the tissue, the latter being attributed when the dissolution of the pulp tissue was not complete within 48 hours. When the samples were able to dissolve the tissue, the time required for complete tissue dissolution was submitted to statistical analysis. The pH of the solutions was measured before and after the experiment. The pH variable was dichotomized as either changed or unchanged. The results demonstrated that the NaOCl solutions combined with 17 percent EDTA were not able to dissolve the tissue. The t-test revealed that the 2.5 percent NaOCl solution presented a lower mean dissolution time than the 1 percent NaOCl solution (p < 0.001). The pH of the solutions with equal volumes of NaOCl and EDTA decreased in 48 hours.

ABSTRACT

Analisou-se o desgaste no terço apical de canais simulados após instrumentação com o Sistema K3 de conicidade.04. Utilizaram-se 12 jogos de instrumentos do Sistema K3 e 12 canais simulados confeccionados com resina epóxi transparente. Os instrumentos foram empregados em canais com curvaturas de 20 e 40 graus. Os canais foram fotografados antes da instrumentação e após a utilização dos instrumentos que prepararam o batente apical: 30, 35, 40 e 45. As imagens foramsobrepostas no programa Adobe Photoshop CS2 versão 9.0 e mediu-se o desgaste, em milímetros, para fora da curva em dois locais: 1 (local A) e 5 (local B) milímetros aquém do comprimento de trabalho. Por meio da Análise de Variância estudou-se a existência de interação entre três fatores: curvatura do canal, calibre do instrumento e local da curva. Nos canais de 20º, em ambos os locais, a quantidade de desgaste promovido pelo instrumento de calibre 40 não diferiu significativamente do desgaste promovido pelo calibre 35. Nos canais de 40º, no local A, não houve diferença estatística entre o desgaste promovido pelos quatro diferentes calibres de instrumentos. Houve desvio, para o lado de fora da curva, em ambos os pontos analisados.


The authors analyzed the wear in apical third after K3 .04 System preparation. 12 sets of instruments were used and 12 simulated canals in transparent epoxy resin blocks with angles of curvature 20 and 40 degrees. Canals were photographed before preparation and after the utilization of instruments which prepared the apical stop: 30, 35, 40 e 45. The images were overposed inAdobe Photoshop program and the wear was measured in millimeters, in two points, 1 (A) and 5 (B) millimeters from the working length. By Variance Analysis the interaction existencewas studied among these three factors: canal curvature, instrument caliber and curve location. In canals of 20 degrees, in both analyzed points, the wear mean promoted by instrument 40 and instrument 35 there was not statistically signifi cant. In canals of 40 degrees, in location A, there was not statistically signifi cant difference in the wear mean promoted by four differentinstruments. There was a deviation from the original trajectory to the outside the curve, in both analyzed points.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: This study evaluated the wear in the apical third of simulate canals after preparation with ProTaper Universal Rotary System. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 24 sets of instruments were used in 24 simulated canals in transparent epoxy resin blocks with degree of curvature of either 20°or 40°. The canals were photographed preoperatively and after preparation of the apical stop with ProTaper F3, F4 and F5 instruments. The initial and final images were exported to Adobe Photoshop® software and superimposed to detect the root canal wall differences (in mm) between them, in two points located 1 (A) and 5 (B) mm from the point where the working length was established. Data were subjected to analysis of variance to verify the existence of interaction among the factors: canal curvature, instrument size and curve location. Significant level was set at 5 percent. RESULTS: Regardless of the location and the canal curvature, F4 and F5 instruments produced the greatest wear (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: There was a deviation from the original pathway towards the outside of the root curvature in both analyzed points. All instruments produced canal transportation, but the F4 and F5 instruments produced more than the other instruments, and should thus be used with care in curved canals.

ABSTRACT

Introdução e Objetivo: O objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar o padrão de estandardização dos tamanhos dos orifícios 35, 50 e 140 de três diferentes marcas comerciais de réguas calibradoras de cones de guta-percha e verificar possíveis distorções nos diâmetros 0,35; 0,50 e 1,40 mm após quatro ciclos de esterilização. Material e métodos: Foram fotografadas 10 réguas de cada uma das seguintes marcas comerciais: Angelus®, Maillefer® e Prisma®. Nove réguas (três de cada marca) foram submetidas a quatro ciclos de esterilização e fotografadas após cada um deles. Resultados e conclusão: Os resultados mostraram que houve variação nos diâmetros dos orifícios após as esterilizações, e que as três marcas apresentaram falta de fidelidade ao tamanho mencionado pelos fabricantes quando novas, isto é, sem esterilizações. A marca Maillefer®, antes de esterilizada, foi a que apresentou maior acurácia.

ABSTRACT

Para a realização deste estudo selecionou-se três peças automatizadas: M4 (Kerr Corporation), Endo-Gripper (Moyco Union Broach) e NSK TEP-E10R (Adiel Super Endo), todas com, aproximadamente, um ano de uso. Utilizou-se para os testes as velocidades de 6000, 8000 e 10000 rpm, verificando-se suas repercussões na trajetória angular dos sistemas. O registro do traçado das angulagens executadas foi obtido através da integração de um aparato constituído de lima endodôntica, haste plástica e grafite, adaptados, em cada peça automatizada, de maneira que a extremidade do grafite ficasse em contato com uma folha de papel milimetrado. Os resultados obtidos, após análise estatística, demonstraram que nenhuma das peças automatizadas testadas, independente da velocidade empregada, descreve a angulagem indicada pelo fabricante, ou seja, 45º para o Endo-Gripper e o Tep 10R (NSK), e 30º para o M4, num percurso total de 90º e 60º, respectivamente, e que a trajetória dos movimentos oscilatórios estava vinculada ao próprio sistema e velocidade empregados.


For accomplishment of this study, three automated pieces were selected: M4 (Kerr Corporation), Endo-Gripper (Moyco Union Broach) and NSK TEP-E10R (Adiel Super Endo), allwith nearly one year of use. Tests were performed at speeds of 6000, 8000 and 10000 rpm, with observation of their infl uence on the angular pathway of the systems. Recording of the tracing ofangles was achieved by integration of an apparatus comprising endodontic fi le, plastic rod and graphite, connected to the automated handpiece, so as the end of the graphite was in contact with amillimeter paper. After statistical analysis, the results achieved revealed that none of the automated pathway indicated by the manufacturer, i.e 45º for Endo-Gripper an NSK, and 30º for M4, having a total pathway of 90º and 60º, respectively; moreover, the pathway of oscillating movements wasrelated to the system and speed employed.

ABSTRACT

O sucesso do tratamento endodôntico está relacionado diretamente a um correto diagnóstico. Entre os recursos semiotécnicos empregados em Endodontia, o teste de vitalidade pulpar com gás refrigerante constitui auxílio clínico destinado a despertar resposta da polpa. Existem dificuldades de interpretação das respostas sensoriais em dentes portadores de restaurações, que podem agir como condutoras ou isolantes térmicos, diminuindo a acurácia do teste semiotécnico. Por isso, este estudo teve como intuito avaliar em um dente canino superior humano extraído a capacidade de abaixamento de temperatura da superfície interna da câmara pulpar após a aplicação do gás refrigerante à base de tetrafluoretano em três diferentes situações clínicas. No dente inicialmente hígido, posteriormente quando restaurado com amálgama e, finalmente, quando removida a restauração de amálgama e restaurado com resina composta. Quando o teste envolveu o dente restaurado com amálgama, o grau de abaixamento de temperatura foi maior, estatisticamente significativo, em relação às outras duas situações. No que concerne ao do tempo necessário para atingir a temperatura mínima, não existiram diferenças estatísticas significantes entre o dente hígido e o dente com amálgama, também não houve diferenças estatísticas entre o dente hígido e o dente com resina. Entretanto, o dente restaurado com resina e o dente restaurado com amálgama são diferentes estatisticamente. O amálgama foi o material que oportunizou o menor tempo para chegar à temperatura mais baixa. Ao executar um teste semiotécnico com spray refrigerante, o tempo e a intensidade das respostas dolorosas podem variar quando existe algum material a ser transposto na superfície dentária.


The successfull endodontic treatment is connected to a correct diagnostic. Amongst the most commonly diagnosis methods used in endodontics, the pulpal vitality test constitutes a clinical aid to evoke a response from the pulp. There are interpretation difficulties about sensitive responses on restored teeth. The restorations may be thermic conductors or insulators, reducing the accuracy of pulpal vitality test. Thus, the aim of this study was to verify the capacity to decrease the temperature pulp chamber?s inside surface after the application of tetrafluorethane freezing gas on upper extracted human canine tooth in three clinical situations: with sound tooth, when the tooth was restored with amalgam and when the tooth was restored with composite resin. When the test involved the tooth restored with amalgam the temperature reduction was statistically higher than the sound tooth and the restored tooth with composite resin. About the time taken to reach the minimal temperature there were no statistically significant differences between the healty tooth and the tooth restored with amalgam. There were again no differences between the sound tooth and the tooth restored with composite resin. However, the tooth restored with composite resin and the tooth restored with amalgam are statistically different. Amalgam was the material which required less time to get to the minimal temperature. Time and intensity of sensitive responses may be changed when there is a restored material on dental surface.

ABSTRACT

Foram analisados o teor de cloro ativo e o pH em amostras da solução de hipoclorito de sódio a 1%, provenientes de 3 diferentes frascos onde estavam armazenadas (frasco Pet 1, Pet 2 e Pet 3). Uma amostra de cada frasco foi colhida imediatamente no momento da abertura das embalagens (tempo 0:T), e as outras três (uma de cada frasco) foram deixadas expostas a luz e temperatura ambiente por aproximadamente 3 horas e posteriormente levadas para análise (tempo 1:T1). Conclui-se que em todas as amostras houve diminuição do teor de cloro ativo de T0 para T1. Apenas nas amostras provenientes do primeiro frasco (Pet 1) o pH baixou de 12,00 para 11,50(de T0 para T1). A porcentagem de teor de cloro ativo não condizia com o descrito no rótulo nas amostras provenientes dos três frascos Pet

ABSTRACT

A finalidade deste trabalho foi relatar um caso clínico em que ocorreu a injeção acidental na região periapical da solução irrigadora de hipoclorito de sódio 2,5% durante tratamento endodôntico de um primeiro molar superior. Os autores demonstraram, por meio da descrição deste caso clínico, que soluções concentradas de hipoclorito de sódio, quando extrudadas inadvertidamente para a região periapical, causam danos teciduais, desconforto para o paciente e, consequentemente, dúvidas quanto à habilidade do cirurgião-dentista


The authors' aim was to report a clinical case of accidental injection of sodium hypochlorite 2,5% into periapical region during the root canal treatment of the upper right first molar. It was demonstrated that sodium hypochlorite concentrate solutions injection induces tissular injuries, discomfort for the patient and doubts about the dentist's ability

ABSTRACT

A radiopacidade é uma das propriedades físicas requeridas pelos diferentes materiais de uso endodôntico, permitindo avaliar o preenchimentodo sistema de canais radiculares. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a densidade óptica de três pastas de hidróxido de cálcio – hidróxido de cálcio pró-análise (Biodinâmica) + propilenoglicol 400 (Farmácia Extrato Puro), pasta Calen (SS White) e pasta UltraCal XS (UltraDent), associadas a um simulador de tecidos. Foram confeccionados 15 corpos-de-prova a partir de um tubo de polietileno, que originou três grupos experimentais, com cinco tubos preenchidos com cada uma das pastas avaliadas. Com o intuito de averiguar a interferência do tubo utilizado na radiopacidade, foram incluídos como amostras, mais dois grupos; um composto apenas com o dente e outro com um tubo vazio inserido no interior do canal radicular. Foram obtidas 25 imagens digitais padronizadas, utilizando o sistema Visualix, sendo 5 para cada grupo. As imagens foram exportadas para o programa Adobe Photoshop v. 7.0, no qual foi determinada a média e o desvio padrão da densidade óptica em uma área padronizada da imagem, correspondente à posição do tubo. Os valores médios de densidade óptica encontrados foram, em ordem decrescente, pasta UltraCal XS (236,25 ± 2,96), pasta Calen (230,32 ± 3,49) e pasta Pró-análise + Propilenoglicol (210,95 ± 3,29). O sistema Visualix foi capaz de identificar diferentes padrões de radiopacidade para os materiais testados, sendo que todas as pastas apresentaram radiopacidade significativamente maior que a do conduto radicular vazio e diferiram significativamente entre si.


Radiopacity is one of the physical properties requested by the different materials of endodontic use, which evaluate the filling of the pulp canal system. The aim of this study was to evaluate the radiopacity of three calcium hydroxide pastes: calcium hydroxide pro-analysis (biodynamics) + Propilenoglicol 400 (pharmacy pure extract), Calen (SS white) and UltraCal XS (Ultra Dent), associated to a tissue simulator. Fifteen samples were manufactured using a polyethylene tube, originating three experimental groups, with five tubes filled with each one of the pastes evaluated. In order to find out the interference of the tube in the radiopacity, another two groups were included: one composed just by the tooth and other with an empty tube inserted in the root canal. Using the Visuallix system, 25 standardized digital images were obtained (5 of each group). The images were exported to Adobe Photoshop v. 7.0 software, in order to obtain the mean values and standard deviation of gray levels in a standardized area of the image, corresponding to the tube position. The mean values of optic density were, in decreasing order, UltraCal XS (236,25 +2,96), Calen (230,32 + 3,49) and pro-analysis+ propilenoglicol (210,95 + 3,29). The Visualix system was able to identify different patterns of the radiopacity in the tested materials, which were more radiopaque than the empty root canal and significantly different in terms of radiopacity.

ABSTRACT

O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar in vitro, em dentes extraídos, a microinfiltração de corante na interface material restaurador provisório (Bioplic®, Coltosol® e Tempore®) e amálgama de prata. Utilizou-se 57 terceiros molares hígidos, onde foram confeccionadas amplas restaurações de amálgama de prata. O acesso endodôntico foi realizado sobre essas restaurações, permanecendo o amálgama nas bordas. Os condutos foram esvaziados, permitindo a colocação de cones de papel. A câmara pulpar foi preenchida com algodão e sobre esta se inseriu os três diferentes materiais provisórios. Os espécimes foram impermeabilizados, submetidos à termociclagem (5ºC/55ºC) e imersos em azul de metileno 2% por 24 horas. Após, os dentes foram seccionados longitudinalmente no sentido mésio-distal. Os resultados obtidos avaliados pelo teste Kruskal-Wallis, o qual constatou que o Tempore® possuiu maiores graus de infiltração. O Bioplic® e o Coltosol® tiveram melhores resultados e não diferiram entre si. Torna-se válida a realização deste estudo, pois ocorre, freqüentemente, a necessidade da realização de acessos endodônticos em dentes restaurados com amálgama de prata.


The purpose of this study was to evaluate in vitro the microinfiltration at the interface temporary sealing material (Bioplic®, Coltosol ® and Tempore®) and silver amalgam. Fifty seven third molars were used, which were restored with silver amalgam and endodontic cavities were made. The canals were emptied, allowing the paper cone placement; the pulpar chamber filled with cotton and the referred materials were inserted. Impermeabilization and thermocycling (5ºC/55ºC)procedures were performed as well as immersion in 2% metylene blue for 24 hours. The specimens were sectioned longitudinally in mesiodistal direction and the results thus obtained were evaluated by the Kruskal-Wallis test which showed that Tempore® has greater infiltration degrees. Bioplic® and Coltosol ® obtained better results and there was no difference between them.
