Metodologias ativas no ensino da Prótese Parcial Removível durante a COVID-19: um relato de experiência da Universidade Federal da Paraíba / Metodologías activas em la enseñanza de Prótesis Parcial Removible durante laCOVID-19: relato de experiencia de la Universidade Federal da ParaíbaResumen / Active methodologies in teaching the Removable Partial Denture course during COVID-19: an experience report

Este estudo objetiva apresentar a experiência do componente curricular Prótese Parcial Removível (PPR) da Universidade Federal da Paraíba com a implementação de metodologias ativas, como gamificação, sala de aula invertida e case-based learning(CBL), no ensino à distância, visando sedimentar o aprendizado quanto ao planejamento de arcos parcialmente desdentados. As atividades foram realizadas de forma síncrona e assíncrona, utilizando como casos os esquemas bidimensionais e fotografias de arcosparcialmente desdentados, baseando-se no conceito de sala de aula invertida, no qual os alunos apresentavam os casos e os professores atuavam como mediadores nas discussões. Observou-se um grande engajamento e participação ativa dos alunos na construção do seuconhecimento. A inserção dessas metodologias no ensino remoto funcionou como um eixo motivacional para os alunos, fomentando a aprendizagem e estimulando o desenvolvimento de competências no planejamento em PPR previamente ao atendimento clínico (AU).

Este estudio tiene como objetivo presentar la experiencia del componente curricular Prótesis Parcial Removible de la Universidade Federal da Paraíba con la implementación de metodologías activas, como gamificación, aula invertida y aprendizaje basado en casos, en educación a distancia, con el objetivo de consolidar el aprendizaje sobre la planificación de arcadas parcialmente edéntulas. Las actividades se realizaron de forma sincrónica y asincrónica, utilizando diagramas bidimensionales y fotografías de arcos parcialmente edéntulos como casos, basados en el concepto de aula invertida, en la que los estudiantes presentaban los casos y los docentes actuaban como mediadores en las discusiones. Hubo un gran compromiso y participación activa de los estudiantes en la construcción de su conocimiento. La inclusión de estas metodologías en la enseñanza a distancia funcionó como eje motivacional de los estudiantes, favoreciendo el aprendizaje y estimulando el desarrollo de habilidades en la planificación de la Prótesis Parcial Removible previa a la atención clínica (AU).

This study aims to present the experience of RPD course at the Universidade Federal da Paraíba using active methodologies such as gamification, flipped classroom and case-based learning (CBL) in distance learning, aiming to consolidate learning in planningpartially edentulous arches. Activities were carried out synchronously and asynchronously using two-dimensional schemes and photographs of partially edentulous arches as "cases" and based on the concept of the flipped classroom, where students presented the cases and the teachers acted as mediators in the discussions. Excellent engagement and active participation of students in their knowledge construction were observed. The insertion of these methodologies in remote teaching acted as a motivational axis for the students, promoting learning and stimulating development of competences in RPD planning prior to clinical care (AU).

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on dental trauma attendance: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Abstract This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to analyze the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on dental trauma patient attendance. The study was registered in the PROSPERO system, using the CRD42021288398 protocol. Searching was performed in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, Lilacs, and OpenGrey databases, using the following keywords: "Tooth injuries," "Dental trauma," "Traumatic Dental injury," and "COVID-19". We included observational studies evaluating dental trauma in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Quality assessment was performed using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist for Cross-Sectional Studies. Meta-analysis was performed in RevMan 5.4 software with Odds Ratios as a pooled measure of effect, with a 95% confidence interval, and using random-effects modeling. After applying the eligibility criteria, 32 studies were included for qualitative analysis, in which 10 were used to assess the frequency of dental trauma diagnoses in dental emergencies. Despite the decrease of visits during COVID-19, the analysis revealed no difference between the pandemic and pre-pandemic periods. Regarding the type of dental trauma, two of the studies revealed no differences for the periods before and during the pandemic. This study revealed that the COVID-19 pandemic has not impacted the frequency or type of dental trauma compared to previous periods.
