Résumé
A assistência odontológica é imprescindível para a prevenção de doenças infecciosas e para a manutenção da integridade da cavidade oral de pacientes internatos em unidades de terapia intensiva. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o conhecimento e as práticas de higiene oral dos acadêmicos do curso de Enfermagem de uma instituição de ensino superior, que realizam estágio em hospital, no controle de higiene bucal de pacientes internados em ambiente hospitalar. Participaram do estudo 40 alunos, que responderam 14 perguntas com o intuito de avaliar o conhecimento e as práticas no controle de higiene bucal, realizadas por eles, em pacientes internados em ambiente hospitalar. Os resultados demonstraram que os acadêmicos entrevistados tinham idade média de 25,8 anos, sendo 95% do sexo feminino e apenas 5% do sexo masculino. Destes, 42,5% afirmaram não haver presença de um Cirurgião-Dentista em ambiente hospitalar e 82,5% responderam que o responsável pela saúde bucal dos pacientes é do técnico de enfermagem. Quanto aos cuidados em pacientes internados em UTI, 52,5% dos entrevistados relataram que estes pacientes recebem higienização bucal, porém 30% alegaram que esta pratica não era realizada e 17,5% não sabiam responder. Além disso, 47,5% dos entrevistados afirmam ter insegurança ao realizar os procedimentos de higiene bucal dos pacientes. Pode-se concluir que os acadêmicos entrevistados possuem bom conhecimento acerca da importância dos cuidados com a saúde bucal dos pacientes internados em ambiente hospitalar. No entanto, ainda existem muitas dúvidas relacionadas ao manejo clínico de procedimentos de promoção de saúde bucal, que poderiam ser solucionados com a presença de um profissional de Odontologia inserido em uma equipe multidisciplinar(AU)
Oral care is essential for the prevention of infectious diseases and for maintaining the integrity of the oral cavity of patients hospitalized in intensive care units. The objective of this study is to evaluate the knowledge and oral hygiene practices of Nursing students at a higher education institution, who carry out internships in a hospital, in controlling the oral hygiene of patients admitted to a hospital environment. 40 students participated in the study, who answered 14 questions with the aim of evaluating the knowledge and practices in controlling oral hygiene, carried out by them, on patients hospitalized in a hospital environment. The results demonstrated that the academics interviewed had an average age of 25.8 years, with 95% being female and only 5% being male. Of these, 42.5% stated that there was no presence of a Dental Surgeon in a hospital environment and 82.5% responded that the nursing technician is responsible for the patients' oral health. Regarding care for patients admitted to the ICU, 52.5% of those interviewed reported that these patients receive oral hygiene, however 30% claimed that this practice was not performed and 17.5% did not know how to answer. Furthermore, 47.5% of those interviewed say they are insecure when carrying out oral hygiene procedures for patients. It can be concluded that the academics interviewed have good knowledge about the importance of oral health care for patients hospitalized in a hospital environment. However, there are still many doubts related to the clinical management of oral health promotion procedures, which could be resolved with the presence of a dentistry professional within a multidisciplinary team(AU)

Objetivo: La histoplasmosis es una infección fúngica sistémica prevalente en la región del Río de la Plata. Puede exhibir manifestaciones orales, cutáneas y/o sistémicas. Las lesiones bucales significan un desafío diagnóstico debido a su semejanza clínica con el carcinoma oral de células escamosas (COCE). El objetivo de este trabajo fue presentar una serie de casos de histoplasmosis oral enfatizando la importancia del diagnóstico diferencial clínico con el COCE. Casos clínicos: Se describen casos de histoplasmosis oral diagnosticados en los últimos 5 años en la Cátedra de Estomatología "A" de la Facultad de Odontología de la Universidad Nacional de Córdoba, Córdoba, Argentina. En forma paralela, se realizó una revisión de la literatura de los últimos 10 años. Los casos corresponden a 9 pacientes, 6 varones y 3 mujeres, cuya edad promedio fue de 58,6 años. 4 pacientes eran VIH positivos. Se planteó la sospecha de COCE en 5 pacientes, cuya presentación clínica intraoral consistía en úlceras o lesiones ulcerovegetantes, mayormente únicas, ubicadas en la encía. La revisión bibliográfica arrojó un resultado de 48 artículos que incluyeron 60 casos de histoplasmosis oral, con una prevalencia mayor en hombres y similitudes clínicas con COCE en el 80% de los casos. La lesión más predominante fue la úlcera en el 85% de los casos, ubicada en lengua, seguido por el paladar. El diagnóstico de histoplasmosis oral es desafiante y requiere un amplio diferencial, ya que se asemeja a múltiples patologías, debiendo ser considerada ante lesiones ulcerativas orales. Un diagnóstico preciso, de manera interdisciplinaria, es esencial para un tratamiento efectivo.(AU)
Aim: Histoplasmosis is a systemic fungal infection prevalent in the Río de la Plata region. It could present oral, cutaneous and/or systemic manifestations. Oral lesions represent a diagnostic challenge due to their clinical similarity to oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The objective of this work is to present a case series of oral histoplasmosis emphasizing the importance of clinical differential diagnosis with OSCC. Clinical cases: Cases of oral histoplasmosis diagnosed in the last 5 years in the Oral Medicine Department "A" of the Facultad de Odontología of the Universidad Nacional de Córdoba, Córdoba, Argentina are discribed. Alongside, a literature review of the last 10 years was carried out. 9 patients are described, 6 men and 3 women, whose average age was 58.6 years. 4 patients were HIV positive. The suspicion of OSCC was raised in 5 patients, whose intraoral clinical presentation consisted of single ulcers or vegetating ulcers, mostly single, located in the gingiva. The literature review included a total of 48 articles with 60 cases of oral histoplasmosis, with a higher prevalence in men and clinical similarities with OSCC in 80% of cases. The most predominant lesion was the ulcer in 85% of the cases, mostly located on the tongue, followed by the palate. The diagnosis of oral histoplasmosis is challenging and requires a wide differential, since it can mimic multiple pathologies, and should be considered in oral ulcerative lesions. An accurate diagnosis, in an interdisciplinary framework, is essential for effective treatment.(AU)
Résumé
Abstract This article aims to analyze the clarity and engagement measures of publications on oral cancer in the Instagram profiles of official health agencies in Brazil. An infodemiological study was conducted with 81 profiles. Data collected concerned content classification, account and media, manner of addressing the topic, number of posts, likes, comments, views and hashtags. The clarity of the educational publications was assessed with the Brazilian version of the Clear Communication Index (BR-CDC-CCI). Data analysis involved Spearman's correlation and the Mann-Whitney test (α = 5%). A total of 775 publications on oral cancer were found. The average BR-CDC-CCI score was 69.8 (SD = 15.5). The clarity of the information was adequate in 9.5% of the educational publications. Positive correlations were found between the number of likes and engagement (comments [r = 0.49], views [r = 0.96]), number of hashtags (r = 0.13) and year of publication (r = 0.21). Publications from the Health Ministry had a significantly higher BR-CDC-CCI score compared to the other profiles. Publications on oral cancer were correlated with engagement, year of publication and number of hashtags. Public agencies increased publications to reach the population, but the clarity of the content was low.

To report the managing of a combined protocol involving extraoral and intraoral photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy for lingual nerve paresthesia. Case report: A 38-year-old female patient underwent 25 PBM sessions using laser with dual wavelength infrared (810nm + 980 nm). The extraoral application included 6 seconds and 6J per point. per point, 1W, 4.91 cm², 1.2 J/cm. The intraoral protocol with 0.3W of power, a spot size of 0.38 cm², 15.78 J/cm² of energy density, 6J of energy per point, for 20 seconds. Results: Assessment of neurosensitivity on the dorsum of the tongue was a 75% improvement. On the lateral tongue improved to 50%. In the floor of the mouth, PBM demonstrated a 25% improvement. Conclusion: PBM is an important treatment option in the case of lingual nerve paresthesia. The use of PBM should be considered as a feasible, non-invasive treatment approach.
Résumé
This case report highlights the delay in the diagnosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and the inappropriate use of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) in dentistry. OSCC is a malignant neoplasm that affects the oral cavity and can have severe consequences if not diagnosed and treated appropriately and promptly. The patient presented with a persistent oral lesion that was initially diagnosed as a traumatic injury and treated with LLLT, which led to a delay in the correct diagnosis of OSCC. The case emphasizes the importance of early detection and proper management of oral lesions to prevent the progression of malignant conditions. It also emphasizes the need for professional knowledge regarding the applicability of LLLT in dental practice. Dental professionals should be vigilant in recognizing suspicious oral lesions and promptly refer patients for further evaluation and appropriate treatment to ensure optimal outcomes.
Este informe de un caso destaca el retraso en el diagnóstico del carcinoma espinocelular oral (CEC) y el uso inapropiado de la terapia con láser de baja potencia (LBP) en odontología. El CEC es una neoplasia maligna que afecta la cavidad oral y puede tener graves consecuencias si no se diagnostica y trata de manera adecuada y oportuna. La paciente presentó una lesión oral persistente que inicialmente se diagnosticó como lesión traumática y se trató con LBP, lo que llevó a un retraso en el diagnóstico correcto del CEC. El caso enfatiza la importancia de la detección temprana y el manejo adecuado de las lesiones orales para prevenir la progresión de condiciones malignas. También resalta los riesgos asociados con el uso inapropiado de la LBP en la práctica odontológica. Los profesionales de la odontología deben estar atentos a las lesiones orales sospechosas y remitir a los pacientes de manera oportuna para una evaluación adicional y un tratamiento adecuado, con el fin de garantizar mejores resultados.
Résumé
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of motivational interviewing on improving oral hygiene behavior in patients with fixed orthodontics appliances. A parallel-group randomized clinical trial was conducted with 45 patients of the Orthodontic Clinic of Unibe's Postgraduate Unit. A computer-generated list of numbers created with SPSS V21.0 was used to randomly allocate participants into the experimental or the control group. Monthly oral hygiene instructions and an oral hygiene kit from GUM® with special orthodontic hygiene tools were given to the participants. Furthermore, the experimental group underwent motivational interviewing sessions facilitated by a periodontist who received training from two expert psychologists. These psychologists also provided supervision to the interviewer, ensuring the accurate implementation of the intervention. Simplified Oral Hygiene Index (SOHI), Gingival Index (GI), Periodontal Probing Depth (PPD) and Bleeding on Probing (BoP) were recorded at baseline, three and six months after the beginning of the study. The participant and the evaluator (another periodontist who recorded the data) were masked. Repeated-measures mixed- model analysis of variance and chi-squared test were conducted. Mean SOHI, GI, PPD and BoP scores did not differ significantly across the three time points (baseline, three and six months). Nevertheless, a significant interaction on SOHI scores (F (2, 58) = 3.463, p = .038, h2 = .052) was found between the sessions and the treatment conditions (experimental vs control group) at the third and sixth month. Motivational interviewing plus oral hygiene instructions appears to maintain a better control of dental biofilm and calculus in comparison with conventional oral hygiene instructions alone.
El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar la efectividad de las entrevistas motivacionales para mejorar el comportamiento de higiene oral en pacientes con aparatos ortodóncicos fijos. Se llevó a cabo un ensayo clínico aleatorizado de grupos paralelos con 45 pacientes de la Clínica de Ortodoncia de la Unidad de Posgrado de Unibe. Se utilizó una lista de números generada por computadora con SPSS V21.0 para asignar aleatoriamente a los participantes al grupo experimental o de control. Se les proporcionó a los participantes instrucciones mensuales de higiene oral y un kit de higiene oral de GUM® con utensilios de higiene especiales para ortodoncia. Además, el grupo experimental recibió sesiones de entrevista motivacional facilitadas por un periodoncista capacitado por dos psicólogas expertas. Estas psicólogas también supervisaron al entrevistador, asegurando la implementación precisa de la intervención. Se registró el Índice Simplificado de Higiene Oral (IHO-S), el Índice Gingival (IG), la Profundidad de Sondaje Periodontal (PS) y el Sangrado al Sondaje (SS) al inicio, a los tres y seis meses después del inicio del estudio. Tanto el participante como el evaluador (otro periodoncista que registró los datos) estaban enmascarados. Se realizaron análisis de varianza de medidas repetidas con modelo mixto y pruebas de chi-cuadrado. Las puntuaciones medias del IHO-S, IG, PS y SS no difirieron significativamente en los tres momentos (inicio, tres y seis meses). Sin embargo, se encontró una interacción significativa en las puntuaciones del IHO-S (F (2, 58) = 3.463, p = .038, h2 = .052) entre las sesiones y las condiciones de tratamiento (grupo experimental vs grupo de control) en el tercer y sexto mes. Las entrevistas motivacionales junto con las instrucciones de higiene oral parecen mantener un mejor control de la biopelícula dental y el cálculo en comparación con las instrucciones convencionales de higiene oral por sí solas.
Résumé
Las fístulas bucosinusales son complicaciones poco frecuentes originadas a partir de comunicaciones bucosinusales de larga trayectoria o no tratadas que predisponen a desarrollar cuadros patológicos tales como infecciones, sinusitis y un establecimiento crónico de la fístula si no es tratada de manera apropiada y oportuna. El tratamiento indicado es el cierre quirúrgico de esta comunicación, la cual puede ser lograda mediante múltiples técnicas; siendo el tamaño, localización y compromiso de los tejidos blandos circundantes los factores principales para considerar una técnica por sobre otra. El siguiente artículo tiene como objetivo presentar el manejo de una fístula bucosinusal de larga data en un paciente de 71 años con antecedentes médicos de radioterapia de cabeza y cuello.
Oroantral fistulae are rare complications originating from non-treated or long-term oroantral communications which can contribute to the development of certain pathological entities such as local infections, sinusitis and chronic fistula formation. The treatment modality indicated is surgical closure of the communication, which can be achieved through multiple techniques, being the size, location and nearby soft tissue the main factors for considering one technique over another. The objective of the following article is to present the management of an oroantral fistula in a 71 year old patient with a medical history of head and neck radiotherapy.

Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) and mucous membrane pemphigoid (MMP) are bullous autoimmune diseases that reach the oral mucosa and have common clinical features. The objective of the study was to present and compare the clinical manifestations of PV and MMP and the results of applied treatments. A case series of a stomatology service from 1985 to 2018. Data collection included epidemiological data, comorbidities, medications in use, duration of symptoms before the first visit, previous treatment, symptomatology, clinical description of lesions, presumptive diagnosis, histopathological description, extraoral manifestations, final diagnosis, treatment and follow-up. The medical records of 25 patients were analysed, 19 of whom were diagnosed with MMP and 6 with PV. The female gender was prevalent in MMP (84 %) and the male gender in PV (67 %). More than 60 % of patients complained of pain at their first visit. Patients with MMP took on average 6 months to seek professional help and patients with PV, about 2 months. Desquamative gingivitis was the most common lesion (63 %) in MMP and non-gingival ulcers (67 %) in PV. Minimal therapy was effective in all cases of MMP, and in PV one individual required minimal adjuvant therapy due to worsening of the case. Patients with PV have more intense signs and oral symptoms and may need more intensive treatment than patients with MMP. The use of topical and/or systemic corticosteroids was sufficient for most cases in both diseases.
Pénfigo vulgar (PV) y Penfigoide de la Membrana Mucosa (PMM) son enfermadades autoinmunes ampollosas que llegan a la mucosa oral y tienen características clínicas comunes. El objetivo de este estudio fue presentar y comparar las manifestaciones clínicas de PV y PMM y los resultados de los tratamientos aplicados. En el análisis se incluyó una serie de casos de un servicio de estomatología de 1985 a 2018. La recolección de información incluyó datos epidemiológicos, comorbilidades, medicamentos en uso, duración de los síntomas antes de la primera visita, tratamientos previos, sintomatología, descripción clínica de las lesiones, diagnóstico presuntivo, descripción histopatológica, manifestaciones extraorales, diagnóstico final, tratamiento y seguimiento. Se analizaron las historias clínicas de 25 pacientes, 19 de los cuales fueron diagnosticados de PMM y 6 de PV. El sexo feminino fue prevalente en PMM (84 %) y el sexo masculino en PV (67 %). Más del 60 % de los pacientes se quejaron de dolor durante la primera consulta. Los pacientes con PMM tardaron en promedio 6 meses en buscar ayuda profesional y los pacientes con PV, alrededor de 2 meses. La gingivitis descamativa fue la lesion más común (63 %) en PMM y las úlceras non gengivales (67 %) en PV. La terapia mínima fue efectiva en todos los casos de PMM, y en PV un individuo requirió terapia adyuvante mínima debido al empeoramiento del caso. Los pacientes con PV tienen signos y síntomas orales más intensos y pueden necesitar un tratamiento más intensivo que los pacientes con PMM. El uso de corticosteroides tópicos y/o sistémicos fue suficiente para la mayoría de los casos en ambas enfermedades.

Résumé
RESUMO Este estudo objetivou caracterizar o trabalho dos profissionais das equipes de saúde bucal da rede pública na pandemia da covid-19 do ponto de vista dos gestores. Trata-se de um estudo quantitativo-qualitativo, com 163 gestores municipais de saúde da Bahia, que responderam a um questionário virtual, de junho a outubro de 2020. Foi realizada análise descritiva dos dados quantitativos utilizando o Statistical Package for the Social Science, e Análise Temática das respostas subjetivas, com auxílio do IRaMuTeQ. Um escopo de atuação das equipes de saúde bucal, que atuam em todos os níveis de atenção à saúde, foi reconhecido como mais abrangente que o tradicional nesse período. A pandemia deu ênfase às fragilidades crônicas nas condições de trabalho dos cirurgiões-dentistas, técnicos e auxiliares de saúde bucal da rede pública, como a insuficiência de instrumentais odontológicos e de insumos, a precária manutenção dos equipamentos odontológicos, a fragilidade dos vínculos empregatícios e a estrutura física inadequada nas unidades de saúde, comprometendo a biossegurança. Assim, abre-se uma oportunidade para identificar e implementar mudanças necessárias não apenas no contexto de crise sanitária, mas também no período pós-pandemia.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to characterize the work of professionals from oral health teams in the public service, in the COVID-19 pandemic, from the point of view of managers. This is a cross-sectional, quantitative-qualitative study, with 163 municipal health managers in Bahia, who answered a virtual questionnaire, from June to October 2020. The descriptive analysis of the quantitative data was performed using the Statistical Package for the Social Science, and Thematic Analysis was applied to the subjective responses, using IRaMuTeQ. The scope of action of oral health teams, which operate at all levels of health care, was recognized as broader than the traditional in this period. The pandemic emphasized the chronic problems in the working conditions of dentists, technicians, and oral health assistants in the public service, such as the lack of dental instruments and supplies, the precarious maintenance of dental equipment, the fragility of employment relationships, and the inadequate physical structure in the health units, compromising biosecurity. Thus, there is an opportunity to identify and implement necessary changes not only in the context of a health crisis, but in the post-pandemic period.
Résumé
Objetivo. Evaluar la eficacia del programa de salud bucal para los cuidadores de las personas con discapacidad. Métodos: Estudio cuasi experimental de intervención directa, longitudinal, con control antes y después, con un muestreo no probabilístico. Se diseñó, aplicó y evaluó un programa educativo de salud bucal a los cuidadores de personas con discapacidad, mediante una encuesta diseñada al efecto, antes y después de su implementación, en 111 cuidadores, así como la evaluación del Índice de Higiene Bucal de sus familiares con discapacidad, en el periodo de octubre a diciembre de 2020. La información fue procesada utilizando las herramientas de Excel y el programa SPSS versión 25. Los datos numéricos fueron resumidos en tablas descriptivas y los datos categóricos en tablas de frecuencia. Resultados: Antes de la intervención 9,9 % de las personas con discapacidad asistían cada seis meses al dentista, lo cual se incrementó a 76,5 %. Antes del programa 102 personas solo usaban cepillos y pasta dentales para la limpieza bucal, después 109 continuaron usando los mismos productos, sin embargo, se incrementó en un 6 % el uso del hilo dental. El Índice de Higiene bucal se mantuvo como regular, aunque disminuyó de 2.30 a 1.68. Conclusiones: La aplicación del programa cambió positivamente la situación de la salud bucal de los discapacitados ya que los cuidadores demostraron la adquisición de los nuevos conocimientos para una adecuada higiene de la cavidad bucal, la constancia en la aplicación del proceso y la necesidad de asistir a la atención odontológica por hábito y no por necesidad puntual.
Objective: Determine the level of knowledge of caregivers of people with disabilities about oral health before and after applying a program of educational workshops on the subject. Methods: It was a quasi-experimental study of direct intervention, longitudinal, with control before and after, with non-probabilistic sampling. An educational oral health program for caregivers of people with disabilities was developed, applied, and evaluated through a survey before and after its implementation, in 111 caregivers, as well as the evaluation of the Oral Hygiene Index of their relatives with disabilities, in the period from October to December 2020. Results: Before the intervention, 9.9% of people with disabilities attended the dentist every six months, which increased to 76.5%. Before the program, 102 people only used toothbrushes and toothpaste for oral cleaning, after 109 continued using the same products, however, the use of dental floss increased by 7 people. The Oral Hygiene Index remained regular, although it decreased from 2.30 to 1.68. Conclusion: The application of the oral health program had a favorable impact on caregivers, improving the knowledge regarding oral hygiene of their relatives with disabilities, improving the Oral Hygiene Index.
Résumé
Introduction: Pediatric liquid medications (PLM) are frequently administered to children, yet their usage may contribute to the onset of dental caries. Despite its prevalence, there is a notable scarcity of scientific research regarding caregivers' knowledge of this potential cariogenic risk. Objective: This study aims to assess the knowledge of the main caregivers of children aged 5 to 12 years concerning the cariogenic potential associated with the use of PLM. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional analytical obser-vational study involving 152 primary caregivers of children aged 5 to 12 was conducted. Data were collected on caregivers' perceptions of the cariogenic risk associated with PLMs and their consumption habits. The study also assessed oral hygiene routines and evaluated the level of information provided by healthcare professionals. Results: Research findings indicated a significant lack of awa-reness among primary caregivers regarding the cariogenic risks of PLMs, with 78.95% being unaware of these risks and 47.37% unaware of the sugars present in such medications. Additionally, a high rate of PLM consumption was observed, with 63% of caregivers using them in the last year. The study underscored a notable absence of guidance from healthcare professionals, as 91.45% of the caregivers stated that they had not received instructions on tooth brushing after the administration of the PLM. Conclusions: The study highlights a significant lack of awa-reness among primary caregivers regarding the cariogenic risks associated with the ingestion of pediatric liquid medications. This deficit in information and preventive measures presents a substantial obstacle to children's oral health. To address this issue, it is crucial for healthcare professionals to offer comprehensive guidance and promote preventive measures.
Introducción: La administración de medicamentos líquidos pediátricos (MLP) es una práctica común en la población infantil y puede estar vinculada al desarrollo de lesiones de caries dental. Sin embargo, la evidencia científica que aborda el conocimiento de los cuidadores acerca de este riesgo cariogénico es escasa. Objetivo: Este estudio busca determinar el conocimiento de los cuidadores principales de niños de 5 a 12 años sobre el potencial cariogénico asociado al consumo de MLP. Materiales y Métodos: Se llevó a cabo un estudio observacional analítico transversal que incluyó a 152 cuidadores principales de niños en el rango de edad de 5 a 12 años. Se recopiló información sobre la percepción de los cuidadores acerca del riesgo cariogénico de los MLP, así como sobre sus patrones de consumo. Además, se registraron las prácticas de higiene oral y se evaluó el nivel de información proporcionado por los profesionales de la salud. Resultado: Los hallazgos de la investigación revelaron que un 78,95% de los cuidadores principales desconocen el riesgo cariogénico asociado al consumo de medicamentos líquidos pediátricos (MLP), y un 47,37% de ellos no eran conscientes de la presencia de azúcares en dichos medicamentos. Además, se observó un elevado índice de consumo de MLP, con un 63% de los cuidadores que los utilizaron en el último año. Se destacó la falta de orientaciones por parte de los profesionales de la salud, ya que, un 91,45% de los tutores afirmaron no haber recibido instrucciones sobre el cepillado dental posterior a la administración de los MLP. Conclusión: Este estudio evidencia un relevante porcentaje de desconocimiento entre los cuidadores principales acerca del riesgo cariogénico asociado a la ingesta de medicamentos líquidos pediátricos. La falta de información y medidas preventivas constituye un desafío significativo para la salud oral de los niños. Es imperativo que los profesionales de la salud proporcionen información detallada y fomenten prácticas de prevención.

Introduction: Literature shows that individuals with disabilities, including hearing impairment, often suffer from untreated dental caries, poor oral hygiene, and compromised periodontal health, leading to adverse effects on oral health. Objetive: This study aims to analyze current evidence concerning dental care strategies for controlling, managing, and preventing biofilm accumulation in patients with hearing impairment. Materials and Methods: A systematic search was conducted in the databases Scopus, Web of Science, SciELO and PubMed between April and May 2022 to identify articles establishing a relationship between periodontal disease and hearing disability. Full-text articles published in English or Spanish between 2012 and 2022 were included. Results: Seventeen articles met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed. These included cross-sectional studies, cohort studies, clinical trials, case reports, and case-control studies. Most studies reported fair to poor oral health status among individuals. Nine different interventions or management approaches for treating periodontal disease in patients with hearing impairment were identified. Conclusions: The current global evidence on the association between periodontal disease and hearing impairment is very limited. Dentists may need to employ various strategies to address communication barriers, as outlined in this study.
Introducción: Según la literatura, las personas en situación de discapacidad presentan caries dentales no tratadas, higiene bucal y estado periodontal deficiente, lo cual puede resultar en efectos negativos para su salud bucal. Objetivo: Analizar la evidencia existente con relación a la atención odontológica enfocada en el control, manejo y prevención de acumulación de biofilm en pacientes con deficiencia auditiva. Materiales y Métodos: Se realizó la búsqueda de artículos en las bases de datos y motor de búsqueda (Scopus, Web of Science, SciELO y PubMed) entre abril y mayo 2022, de acuerdo con la evidencia existente que relacione la enfermedad periodontal y la discapacidad auditiva en la atención odontológica. Se incluyeron artículos de texto completo en idioma inglés o español, con fecha de publicación entre 2012 a 2022. Resultado: Se seleccionó un total de 17 artículos para su análisis. Se encontró estudios transversales, estudios de cohorte, ensayos clínicos, reporte de caso y estudios de casos y controles. La salud oral fue catalogada en estado regular y deficiente en la mayoría de los estudios. Se encontró 9 tipos de intervenciones o manejos para el tratamiento de la enfermedad periodontal en pacientes con hipoacusia. Conclusión: La evidencia existente respecto a la enfermedad periodontal y la deficiencia auditiva es insuficiente a nivel global. Debido a lo anterior, el odontólogo puede abordar los obstáculos comunicativos de diferentes maneras de acuerdo a los métodos descritos en esta publicación.

Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a prevalent chronic metabolic disorder worldwide, with Type II DM (T2DM) emerging as the most widespread variant. In Chile, approximately 11% of adults aged 20 to 79 suffer from this condition. Given its high prevalence, dental surgeons should be trained to evaluate risk factors, particularly the potential complications linked to tooth extraction in individuals with T2DM. Objetive: To describe the available scientific evidence on post-exodontia complications associated with hyperglycemia in patients with Type II diabetes mellitus. Materials and Methods: An exploratory systematic review was conducted following the PRISMA-ScR extension protocols using the databases PubMed, EBSCO, Scopus and the Cochrane Library. The search employed the following algorithms: (("Diabetic patient complications" AND "Dental extractions")), (("Diabetes" AND "tooth extraction")), (("Glycemia" AND "Tooth extraction complications"), (("Blood glucose" AND "Tooth extractions"), (("Dental extraction sockets" AND "Diabetics"). Results: Out of a total of 973 articles, 25 were included for this review. Six relevance criteria were considered, revealing safety parameters for conducting extractions in patients with T2DM, with capillary blood glucose levels not exceeding 200 mg/dL for elective extractions and 240 mg/dL for emergency extractions. Conclusions: There is limited evidence correlating threshold values of hyperglycemia with post-extraction complications in patients with T2DM. Most authors agree that the primary concern is not T2DM itself, but hyperglycemia. Furthermore, there is minimal consistency in the recommended care protocols for these patients.
Introducción: La diabetes mellitus (DM) es un trastorno metabólico crónico. A nivel mundial, la DM tipo II (DM2) resulta ser la más frecuente. En Chile, un 11% de la población adulta entre los 20 y 79 años la padece. Su alta prevalencia, requiere de un cirujano dentista preparado para valorar los factores de riesgo, como las posibles complicaciones asociadas a la extracción dental en estos pacientes. Objetivo: Describir la evidencia científica disponible sobre complicaciones post-exodoncia asociadas a hiperglicemia en pacientes con diabetes mellitus tipo II. Materiales y Métodos: Se realizó una revisión sistemática exploratoria bajo los protocolos de extensión PRISMA-ScR utilizando las bases de datos, PubMed, EBSCO, Scopus y Cochrane Library con los algoritmos de búsqueda (("Diabetic patient complications" AND "Dental extractions")), (("Diabetes"AND "Tooth extraction")), (("Glycemia" AND "tooth extraction complications")), (("Blood glucose" AND "Tooth extractions")), (("Dental extraction sockets"AND "Diabetics")). Resultado: De un total de 973 artículos se incluyeron 25 artículos para esta revisión. Se consideraron 6 criterios de pertinencia, los cuales mostraron parámetros de seguridad para realizar exodoncias, en pacientes con DM2, con la glucemia capilar no mayor a 200mg/dl en caso de ser electiva y 240 mg/dl en exodoncia de urgencias. Conclusión: Existe poca evidencia que correlacione valores absolutos de hiperglucemia y complicaciones post exodoncia en pacientes con DM2. La mayoría de los autores concuerda en que el problema no es la DM2, sino la hiperglucemia. Existe poca uniformidad en los protocolos de atención recomendados para estos pacientes.

A evolução dos tratamentos em implantodontia possibilitou uma mudança nos tratamentos reabilitadores para pacientes edêntulos, tornando possível a colocação de próteses fixas, que proporcionam maior qualidade de vida para estes pacientes. Para que estas próteses tenham bom desempenho e longevidade satisfatórios é essencial que se mantenha um padrão adequado de higienização bucal e manutenção profissional. Assim, o objetivo deste trabalho foi realizar uma revisão de literatura a respeito dos principais recursos disponíveis para higienização e manutenção das próteses totais fixas sobre implante (protocolo de Branemark), tanto nos cuidados domiciliares dos pacientes quanto no atendimento profissional do cirurgião dentista. Foi realizada uma busca eletrônica, não sistemática, nas bases de dados Lilacs, Pubmed/Medline, Scielo e ScienceDirect, cruzando-se os seguintes descritores: "Higiene Oral"; "Implantes Dentários"; "Implantação Dentária"; "Manutenção"; "Prótese Dentária Fixada por Implante" e "Prótese Dentária". Foram consultados artigos de revisão de literatura, revisão sistemática, meta-análise, estudos clínicos randomizados, além de livros pertinentes ao assunto, publicados no período de 1995 a 2022.Verificou-se na literatura disponível que os principais instrumentos indicados para uso domiciliar são escova dental, fio dental, escova interdental, irrigador oral, dentifrício e enxaguatório. No atendimento profissional em consultório odontológico deve ser dispendida atenção especial às instruções passadas ao paciente e também fazer o possível para motivar e encorajar o seu engajamento na rotina de higienização, além do acompanhamento periodontal, possíveis substituições de parafusos e instalação de placa oclusal estabilizadora, quando necessário. Manter uma higiene oral adequada é essencial para o sucesso das próteses fixas sobre implantes e o cirurgião dentista desempenha um papel crucial não apenas ao realizar o acompanhamento periódico do paciente, mas também ao sugerir os instrumentos mais apropriados, instruir sobre a higiene oral adequada e motivar o paciente a manter a saúde bucal satisfatória(AU)
The evolution of treatments in implantology has enable a change in rehabilitation treatments for edentulous patients, making it possible to place fixed prostheses that provide a better quality of life for these patients. In order to ensure good performance and satisfactory longevity, it is essential to maintain an appropriate standard of oral hygiene and professional maintenance. Thus, the objective of this work was to conduct a literature review on the main resources available for cleaning and maintenance of complete fixed prostheses on implants (Branemark protocol), both in the patients' home care and in the professional care provided by the dentist. A nonsystematic electronic search was carried out in the Lilacs, Pubmed/Medline, Scielo, and ScienceDirect databases, crossing the following descriptors: "Oral Hygiene"; "Dental Implants"; "Dental Implantation"; "Maintenance"; "Dental Prosthesis, ImplantSupported"; and "Prosthodontics". Literature review articles, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, randomized clinical studies, and relevant books on the subject published from 1995 to 2022 were consulted. The literature available indicates that the main instruments recommended for home care are toothbrush, dental floss, interdental brush, oral irrigator, toothpaste, and mouthwash. In the professional dental office, special attention should be given to the instructions given to the patient, as well as to motivate and encourage their engagement in the hygiene routine, in addition to periodontal monitoring, possible screw replacements, and installation of an occlusal splint when necessary. Maintaining adequate oral hygiene is essential for the success of fixed prostheses on implants, and the dentist plays a crucial role, not only in providing periodic patient follow-up, but also in suggesting the most appropriate instruments, instructing on adequate oral hygiene, and motivating the patient to maintain satisfactory oral health(AU)

Introdução: os lipomas são as neoplasias benignas de origem mesenquimal mais comum, podendo acometer diversas partes do corpo, sendo a região maxilofacial, de fato, uma das menos frequentes. Clinicamente, manifestam-se como aumentos de volume de crescimento lento e circunscrito, de base séssil ou pediculada, superfície lisa e consistência macia e coloração amarelada. Os sítios intra-orais mais acometidos são a mucosa jugal e o vestíbulo bucal.Dentre suas variantes microscópicas mais comuns, estão o fibrolipoma, composto de um componente fibroso. No entanto, tais variações não afetam o prognóstico do seu tratamento, que deve ser realizado através da excisão conservadora da lesão. OBJETIVO: O presente trabalho tem como objetivo relatar um caso atípico de lipoma intra-oral. DESCRIÇÃO DO CASO: Paciente do sexo feminino, 67 anos, apresentou-se com aumento de volume em região de fundo de vestíbulo mandibular com evolução de, aproximadamente, 10 meses, indolor, com queixas de dificuldade no posicionamento da prótese dentária inferior. O diagnóstico inicial foi de lipoma, confirmado por análise anatomopatológica através de biópsia excisional da peça. Considerações finais: O tratamento de lipomas intra-orais preconizado pela literatura é a excisão local, obtida por meio da biópsia excisional, sendo uma solução eficaz e de baixa morbidade ao paciente(AU)
Introduction: lipomas are the most common benign neoplasms of mesenchymal origin, which can affect different parts of the body, with the maxillofacial region, in fact, one of the least frequent. Clinically, they manifest as slow-growing, circumscribed swellings, with a sessile or pedunculated base, smooth surface, soft consistency and yellowish color. The most affected intraoral sites are the buccal mucosa and the buccal vestibule. Among its most common microscopic variants are the fibrolipoma, composed of a fibrous component. However, such variations do not affect the prognosis of its treatment, which must be carried out through conservative excision of the lesion. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to report an atypical case of intraoral lipoma. CASE DESCRIPTION: A 67-yearold female patient presented with swelling in the bottom region of the mandibular vestibule with an evolution of approximately 10 months, painless, with complaints of difficulty in positioning the lower dental prosthesis. The initial diagnosis was lipoma, confirmed by anatomopathological analysis through excisional biopsy of the specimen. Final considerations: The treatment of intraoral lipomas recommended by the literature is local excision, obtained through excisional biopsy, being an effective solution with low morbidity for the patient(AU)

Frequentemente, subestima-se a importância da manutenção da saúde bucal, negligenciando o fato de que infecções orais não se restringem à cavidade oral. O impacto das infecções orais, como cáries, doenças periodontais e outras patologias bucais não deve ser minimizado. Tais condições têm o potencial de desencadear complicações sistêmicas significativas, incluindo endocardite, pneumonia e até mesmo acidente vascular encefálico. O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever a condição de saúde bucal de pacientes hospitalizados em um hospital público brasileiro. Trata-se de um estudo transversal, que utilizou a análise de prontuários médicos de pacientes admitidos em uma instituição hospitalar pública brasileira e atendidos pelo serviço de odontologia da instituição. As afecções orais mais diagnosticadas, em ordem de frequência, foram: cárie dentária (40%), gengivite (23,7%), queilite angular (22,5%), doença periodontal (18,7%), candidose oral (7,5%), úlceras traumáticas (6,2%), lesão potencialmente maligna (2,5%) e herpes labial (2,5%). O estado de saúde e higiene bucal dos pacientes foi considerado precário. Parte significativa dos pacientes apresentou afecções bucais com potencial risco de complicações à saúde durante a internação e necessidade de tratamento odontológico invasivo e/ou de urgência. A saúde bucal no ambiente hospitalar tem um papel muito importante para a efetivação da saúde integral dos pacientes internados.
Oral health maintenance is often underestimated, neglecting the fact that oral infections are not confined to the oral cavity. The impact of oral infections such as dental caries, periodontal diseases, and other oral pathologies should not be minimized. These conditions can trigger significant systemic complications, including endocarditis, pneumonia, and even stroke. Hence, this study describes the oral health condition of patients hospitalized in a Brazilian public hospital. A descriptive cross-sectional, exploratory and retrospective study was conducted by analyzing medical records of patients admitted to a Brazilian public hospital, and attended by the institution's dentistry service. The most diagnosed oral conditions, in order of frequency, were dental caries (40%), gingivitis (23.7%), angular cheilitis (22.5%), periodontal disease (18.7%), oral candidiasis (7.5%), traumatic ulcers (6.2%), potentially malignant lesion (2.5%), and labial herpes (2.5%). The patients' oral health and hygiene were considered precarious. A significant number of patients presented oral conditions with potential for health complications during hospitalization and a need for invasive and/or urgent dental treatment. Oral health in a hospital setting plays a crucial role in achieving comprehensive care for hospitalized patients.

Résumé
Este artigo apresenta uma discussão sobre as repercussões do modo de funcionamento marcado pela pulsão oral como um elemento decisivo para que alcancemos as bases mais primordiais da psicose maníaco- depressiva. Entendemos que este estudo também pode auxiliar na elucidação da presença de estados melancoliformes e maniformes em configurações neuróticas de maior gravidade, ou ainda, em psicoses não desencadeadas. Nosso recorte temático será desenvolvido a partir do referencial freudiano, conferindo um espaço significativo às contribuições de Karl Abraham. Também contará com a exposição de novas colaborações da psicanálise pós-freudiana, com enfoque nos impactos da voracidade pulsional na vida humana e as consequências psicopatológicas desse tipo de fixação libidinal. Por fim, buscaremos alinhavar pontos levantados com o diferencial das teorizações de Jacques Lacan, resgatando sucintamente princípios de sua teoria da clínica como a relação ao grande Outro, a lógica fantasmática, o objeto a e o significante paterno.
Cet article présente une discussion sur les répercussions du mode de fonctionnement subjectif marqué par la pulsion orale comme un élément fondamental pour comprendre les bases les plus primordiales de la psychose maniaco-dépressive. Nous comprenons que cette étude peut également aider à élucider la présence d'états en format mélancolique et maniaque dans des configurations névrotiques de gravité plus élevée, ou encore, dans des psychoses non déclenchées. Notre découpage thématique sera développé à partir de la théorie freudienne, accordant un espace significatif aux contributions de Karl Abraham. Il inclura également l'exposition de nouvelles collaborations de la psychanalyse post-freudienne, en mettant l'accent sur les conséquences de la voracité pulsionnelle dans la vie humaine et les conséquences psychopathologiques de ce genre de fixation libidinale. Enfin, nous chercherons à relier les points relevés avec la spécificité des théorisations de Jacques Lacan, reprenant brièvement les principes de sa théorie clinique tels que la relation au grand Autre, la logique du fantasme, l'objet a et le signifiant paternel.
This article presents a discussion about the repercussions of the predominance of the oral drive in subjective functioning as a decisive element to reach the primordial bases of manic-depressive psychosis. We understand that this study can also help enlighten the presence of melancholic and manic states in more severe neurotic configurations, or even in untriggered psychoses. Our thematic framework will be based on Freudian theory, giving significant space to the contributions of Karl Abraham. It will also include the exposition of new contributions from post-Freudian psychoanalysis, focusing on the impacts of drive eagerness in human life and the psychopathological consequences of this type of fixation of libido. Finally, we will seek to connect the issues raised with the uniqueness of Jacques Lacan's theorizations, briefly revisiting the principles of his clinical theory such as the relation to the Other, the phantasmatic logic, the object a, and the fatherly signifier.
