RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of avocado/soybean unsaponifiables (ASU) on periodontal repair in rats with induced periodontitis and arthritis. METHODOLOGY: Forty-five rats were submitted to periodontitis induction by insertion of ligatures into the upper second molars, maintained for 15 days. These animals were randomly allocated to 3 groups according to the presence of induced arthritis (ART) and the application of the ASU: Control (CTR) group-healthy animals, where saline solution was administered; ART-animals with induced arthritis, where saline solution was administered; ART/ASU-animals with induced arthritis, where ASU (0.6 mg/ kg) was administered. The drugs were administered daily by gavage and the animals were euthanized after 7, 15 and 30 days of the ligature removal. Bone resorption, inflammatory infiltrate composition and marker proteins expression of the differentiation and formation of osteoclasts (RANKL and TRAP) were assessed. RESULTS: The ART/ASU group presented higher bone volume than the ART group at 7 and 30 days after the ligature removal. Furthermore, the ART group presented higher quantity of inflammatory cells and expression of TRAP and RANKL than the other groups. CONCLUSION: ASU administration improves the repair of periodontal tissues in an experimental periodontitis model in rats with induced arthritis.

Atualmente no mercado se encontra o extrato de óleo insaponificável de abacate e soja, considerado potente anti-inflamatório, agente antioxidante e analgésico, eficaz no tratamento de distúrbios que afetam os tecidos conjuntivos. O objetivo desse estudo foi avaliar a eficácia deste medicamento no tratamento da doença periodontal induzida em ratos com artrite. Foram utilizados 60 ratos (Rattus Norvegicus) submetidos à indução de artrite por antígeno (AIA) e a indução da doença periodontal (DP) através da inserção de ligadura no segundo molar superior. Após a remoção das ligaduras, em todos os dentes foi realizada raspagem radicular (R). Os animais foram distribuídos randomicamente em 4 grupos, avaliados em três períodos experimentais (7, 15 e 30 dias). Grupo Controle (CTR); Grupo ASU; Grupo ASU e artrite (ASU/AR); Grupo AR. Após os períodos experimentais pós-tratamento, suas maxilas e articulação da pata dianteira foram removidos para processamento laboratorial. A porcentagem de volume ósseo nas regiões proximais foi analisada por microtomografia (MicroCT). Não houve diferenças entre os grupos, entretanto foi verificado na análise intragrupos que no grupo ASU/AR houve um aumento estatisticamente significativo na porcentagem óssea no período de 30 dias em relação ao período de 7 dias e no grupo AR um aumento na porcentagem óssea no período de 30 dias em comparação ao período de 15 dias. Os períodos avaliados apresentaram leve infiltrado inflamatório, desorganização das fibras colágenas e integridade do cemento radicular. Dessa forma conclui-se que o ASU não adicionou efeito ao reparo periodontal após tratamento da periodontite induzida associada ou não a indução de artrite experimental em ratos.
The avocado/soybean unsaponifiables(ASU) is a drug that has been used for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis(AR) and other connective tissue disorders due to their potent anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect and antioxidant. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of this drug on the treatment of the ligatureinduced periodontitis in rats with experimental arthritis. Sixty rats were used in this experiment. The arthritis was induced in thirty rats by injection of specific antigen (AIA) and the periodontitis was induced in all the rats by a insertion of a cotton ligature in the periodontal sulcus of the second upper molar. The ligatures removal and the scaling was performed 7 days after the ligatures placement. The animals were randomly divided in four groups: Control (CTR), ASU, ASU/AR and AR. The animals were euthanized 7, 15 and 30 days after the treatments. The maxilla's and the joint of the front paw was removed to perform the analysis. The percentage of bone tissue in the proximal were analyzed by the micro CT. No statistical differences were detected between the groups. Regarding the intragroup analysis it was showed an enhance on the bone volume in the ASU/AR at 30 days compared with the period of 7 days, and an improve in bone volume the AR at 30 days compared with the period of 15 days. The descriptive histology showed that all the groups presented a mild inflammatory infiltrate, disorganization of collagen fibers and cementum integrity. In conclusion, the consumption of the ASU did not add any additional effect on the periodontal healing after the treatment of the ligature-induced periodontitis in rats with/without experimental arthritis

This study used scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to evaluate the morphology and adhesion of blood components on root surfaces instrumented by curettes, piezoelectric ultrasonic scaler and Er,Cr:YSGG laser. One hundred samples from 25 teeth were divided into 5 groups: 1) Curettes; 2) Piezoelectric ultrasonic scaler; 3) Curettes plus piezoelectric ultrasonic scaler; 4) Er,Cr:YSGG laser; 5) Curettes plus Er,Cr:YSGG laser. Ten samples from each group were used for analysis of root morphology and the other 10 were used for analysis of adhesion of blood components on root surface. The results were analyzed statistically by the Kruskall-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests with a significance level of 5%. The group treated with curettes showed smoother surfaces when compared to the groups were instrumented with piezoelectric ultrasonic scaler and the Er,Cr:YSGG laser. The surfaces instrumented with piezoelectric ultrasonic scaler and Er,Cr:YSGG laser, alone or in combination with hand scaling and root planing, did not differ significantly (p>0.05) among themselves. No statistically significant differences (p>0.05) among groups were found as to the adhesion of blood components on root surface. Ultrasonic instrumentation and Er,Cr:YSGG irradiation produced rougher root surfaces than the use of curettes, but there were no differences among treatments with respect to the adhesion of blood components.

Esse estudo utilizou microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV) para avaliar a morfologia e a adesão de elementos sanguíneos em superfícies radiculares instrumentadas com curetas, ultrassom piezoelétrico e laser de Er,Cr:YSGG. Foram utilizadas no presente estudo 100 amostras provenientes de 25 dentes que foram divididas em 5 grupos: 1) Raspagem manual com curetas; 2) Raspagem com ultrassom; 3) Associação instrumento manual e ultrassom; 4)Irradiação do laser de Er,Cr:YSGG;5)Associação raspagem manual com irradiação com laser de Er,Cr:YSGG. Dez amostras de cada grupo foram utilizadas para análise da morfologia e as outras 10 foram utilizadas para a análise de adesão de elementos sanguíneos. As eletromicrografias foram analisadas através dos escores de adesão de elementos sanguíneos e pelo índice de morfologia radicular e os resultados foram analisados estatisticamente através dos testes de Kruskall-Wallis e de Mann-Whitney com nível de significância de 5 por cento. O grupo que foi tratado com instrumentos manuais apresentou superfície mais lisa em relação aos grupos que foram instrumentados com ultrassom e com o laser de Er,Cr:YSGG. As superfícies instrumentadas com ultrassom e com o laser de Er,Cr:YSGG de forma isolada ou associada a raspagem manual não apresentaram diferenças estatísticas entre si (p>0,05). Não houve diferenças estatísticas entre os grupos em relação a adesão de elementos sanguíneos(p>0,05). A instrumentação ultrassônica e a irradiação com o laser de Er,Cr:YSGG produziram superfícies radiculares mais rugosas em relação a raspagem com curetas, porém não houve diferenças entre os tratamentos com relação à adesão de elementos sanguíneos.
