RESUMO
CONTEXT: Cancer Pain is considered a common and significant clinical problem in malignant neoplasms, comprising 20% to 50% of all patients with tumor progression. Laser photobiomodulation (L-PBM) has been used in a multitude of pain events, ranging from acute trauma to chronic articular. However, L-PBM has never been tested in cancer pain. OBJECTIVES: Evaluate hyperalgesia, edema, COX-1, COX-2, IL-10, and Bdkrb1 mRNA in low-level laser irradiated Walker-256 tumor-bearing rats. METHODS: Rat hind paw injected with Walker Tumor-256 (W-256) and divided into six groups of 6 rats: G1 (control) - W-256 injected, G2- W-256â¯+â¯Nimesulide, G3- W-256â¯+â¯1â¯J, G4- W-256â¯+â¯3â¯Jand G5- W256â¯+â¯6â¯J. Laser parameters: λâ¯=â¯660â¯nm, 3.57â¯W/cm2, Øâ¯=â¯0.028â¯cm2. Mechanical hyperalgesia was evaluated by Randall-Selitto test. Plethysmography measured edema; mRNA levels of COX-1, COX-2, IL-10, and Bdkrb1were analyzed. RESULTS: It was found that the W-256â¯+â¯1â¯J group showed a decrease in paw edema, a significant reduction in pain threshold. Higher levels of IL-10 and lower levels of COX-2 and Bdkrb1 were observed. CONCLUSION: Results suggest that 1â¯Jâ¯L-PBM reduced the expression of COX-2 and Bdkrb1 and increasing IL-10 gene expression, promoting analgesia to close levels to nimesulide.

OBJECTIVE: This systematic review (SR) aimed at assessing the adjunctive clinical effect of ozone therapy (OT) on nonsurgical periodontal treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Articles published prior to September 2019 were electronically searched in four databases without any other date or language restrictions and manually searched in regular journals and in gray literature. This review was performed according to the PICO format. The eligibility criteria comprised randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that analyzed the adjunctive effect of OT on nonsurgical periodontal treatment. RESULTS: Twelve studies published between 2010 and 2019 were included in this SR. A metaanalysis of ten reports showed that there was no statistically significant difference in the periodontal parameters analyzed when scaling and root planing (SRP) plus sulcus irrigation with ozonated water or sulcus insertion of ozonated gas were used when compared to SRP alone. Additionally, there was no significant difference when the effect of SRP plus ozonated water was compared with SRP plus 2% chlorhexidine gluconate (CLX). No studies reported significant microbiological differences when the use of ozone was compared with SRP alone. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this SR do not support the use of OT for nonsurgical periodontal treatment. However, due to the potential heterogeneity across the studies, the presence of confounding factors, and the short follow-up of some included RCTs, these results should not be considered definitive. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The current evidence indicates that ozone has antimicrobial activity and good biocompatibility with periodontal cells and gingival fibroblasts. However, no evidence was found for a positive effect of OT as an adjunct to scaling and root planing.

This study evaluated the impact of soft tissue grafts to reduce marginal peri-implant recession (MPR) after 1 year of follow-up. A total of 24 patients with one single failing maxillary incisor presenting facial bone dehiscence and receiving an immediate implant, bone graft, and provisional were randomly divided into three groups (n = 8 in each group): control (CTL), collagen matrix (CM), and connective tissue graft (CTG). Clinical, photographic, and tomographic analyses were performed to evaluate tissue alterations. The use of a CTG avoided MPR (P < .05) and provided better contour of the alveolar ridge (P < .01) and greater thickness (P < .05) of the soft tissue at the implant facial aspect.

OBJECTIVE: This study investigated the osteoblastic behavior to yttrium-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y-TZP) surface after different intensities of erbium, chromium-doped:yttrium, scandium, gallium, and garnet (Er,Cr:YSGG) laser irradiation treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Y-TZP blocks were randomized divided into 4 groups to Er,Cr:YSGG laser irradiation: group G1â=âcontrol (no laser irradiation); group G2â=â1.5 W; group G3â=â3.0 W; group G4â=â5.0 W, with air-water irrigation. The irradiated surface roughness (Sa and Ra) topography was evaluated. MC3T3-E1 osteoblast cells were cultured and seeded onto the treated surfaces at a plate density of 1 × 10 cells/mL. At the third and seventh days cell proliferation was measured by the colorimetric assay methods. The specimens were prepared to scanning electron microscope to observe adhesion and morphology of cells. RESULTS: MTT assay showed adhesion and proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells in all groups. Compared with group G1 (control), the group G2 had a proliferation 1.4% higher (Pâ>â0.05), the group G3 had a proliferation 3.1% higher (Pâ<â0.05) and group G4 had a proliferation 4.5% higher (Pâ<â0.01). After 7 days there was no difference among the groups (ANOVA, Newman-Keuls). CONCLUSIONS: Er,Cr:YSGG laser irradiation may have contributed to the greater and earlier cell spreading that was observed with the Y-TZP without alterations on surface topography.

The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the influence of 3 different implant surface treatments on the extension of human blood clot formation. For this purpose, the 3 types of surfaces (as-machined; test group 1, titanium discs blasted with aluminum oxide particles and washed with nitric acid; test group 2, titanium discs blasted with titanium oxide particles and washed with maleic acid) obtained were evaluated regarding topography and blood clot extension formation. Data suggest that different treatments applied on implant surfaces confer different mechanical and chemical properties, and that titanium discs blasted with aluminum oxide particles and washed with nitric acid exhibited the widest blood clot extension (P < .001).

The aim of this study was to evaluate the microbiota and surface of failed titanium dental implants from 4 manufacturers. Twelve mobile dental implants were retrieved from 10 smokers after 3 to 10 years of functional loading. Before implant removal, microbial samples were taken and evaluated using polymerase chain reaction. After implant removal, analyses of the failed implant surfaces were performed using scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive spectrometer x-ray. Periodontal pathogens such as Aggregactibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Campylobacter rectus, Eikenella corrodens, Fusobacterium nucleatum, Porphyromonas gingivalis, Prevotella intermedia, Tannerella forsythia, and Treponema denticola were detected in all implants in different proportions. Surface analysis showed varying degrees of surface roughness between the samples and the presence of proteinaceous material, appearing mainly as dark stains. Foreign carbon, oxygen, sodium, calcium, aluminum, and silicon elements were also found. Although no material-related causes of implant failure were detected, several periodontal pathogens were identified independently of the surface topography or manufacturer.

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the efficacy of EDTA gel preparation, associated with texapon detergent (EDTA-T), for removing the smear layer at human root surfaces. METHOD AND MATERIALS: An experimental smear layer was produced by scaling using periodontal curettes, and the root surfaces were etched with the following concentrations of EDTA-T: 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 24%, and negative control (saline solution) for 1, 2, or 3 minutes using both passive and active methods. The surfaces were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy, and photomicrographs were evaluated in relation to smear removal. RESULTS: All EDTA-T groups were more effective than the control group (P < .0001). EDTA-T at 15% was more effective when applied by the passive method, although this difference was not observed for the active method. The active method was statistically better than the passive method (P < .0001). CONCLUSION: The etching of the root surface with EDTA-T gel by active application, independently of the other factors evaluated, was effective for smear layer removal.
