RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To describe the clinical and radiographic performance and survival rate of a new two-piece ceramic implant system after at least 12 months of follow-up. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixty-five implants were placed and followed up for at least 12 months (12.3 ± 1.5), in 50 patients. The implants were installed both in fresh extraction sockets and in healed sites and received provisional restoration when the clinical insertion torque was greater than 35Ncm. The primary results describe the survival rate of these implants. Clinical performance was evaluated through the evaluation of the Pink Esthetic Score (PES) and the degree of satisfaction of the patients. Bone loss was measured through radiographic measurements of the marginal bone loss in the mesial (MBLM) and distal (MBLD) sites. RESULTS: The survival rate was 98.5%. The average MBLM was 0.24 mm (± 0.53) and the MBLD was 0.27 mm (± 0.57). A statistical difference was observed only when comparing immediate implants with delayed ones (MBLM - p = 0.046 and MBLD - p = 0.028) and when they received immediate provisionalization or not (MBLM - p = 0.009 and MBLD - p = 0.040). The PES before the intervention (T0) was 13.4 (± 0.8) and the PES at T2 (12-month follow-up) was 12.9 (± 1.5) (p = 1.14). CONCLUSION: The new two-piece ceramic implant used in the present study showed predictable and reliable results, similar to those found with titanium implants after one year of follow-up. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: These implants can be used as an alternative to titanium implants in terms of the marginal bone loss and the degree of patient satisfaction.

The objective of this study was to evaluate factors that may influence decision-making with regard to extraction or maintenance of periodontally compromised teeth. A questionnaire with 2 distinct clinical scenarios, each including a radiographic image, was provided to students in their final year of dental school and practicing dentists. The participants were asked to record the action that they would take in each case (tooth maintenance vs extraction) and provide a justification for their decision. The questionnaires were answered by 158 dental students and 57 dentists (N = 215). Among the sample as a whole, 31.16% of participants recommended extraction in scenario 1, while only 5.58% recommended that action in scenario 2. In scenario 1, there was a statistically significant difference in the recommendations of the dental students and the dentists, with the former group significantly more disposed to conservative action, that is, maintenance of the tooth (P < 0.001; chi-square test). When the actions recommended by participants specializing in implants or periodontics (or both) were compared with those recommended by other specialists, there was a statistically significant difference between the groups regarding maintenance and extraction (P = 0.012; Fisher exact test), with the former group recommending fewer extractions. When the responses were evaluated in terms of the participants' years of specialty practice, it was observed that professionals with fewer than 20 years of practice were more conservative in their decisions, choosing tooth maintenance significantly more often than specialists with longer experience (P = 0.031; Fisher exact test). Among the majority of both dental students and practicing dentists, the decision in both scenarios was to maintain the compromised teeth; however, the results suggested that that both the years of experience of the individual and the specialty of the practitioner can influence decision-making.

Background: The possibility of installing implants in fresh sockets was first proposed as a viable treatment option in the 1970s. Objective: to assess the relationships of subject-level and implant-level characteristics on the failure of immediate implants installed in sites that contained teeth associated or not with chronic apical periodontitis. Material and Methods: A retrospective study was undertaken with data from patients who received immediate implants with a minimum follow-up of 12 months after loading. The Generalized Estimating Equation, applying a multiple logistic regression model, was employed to investigate the association between predictor variables/co-variables and failure of the immediate implants. Results: Four hundred and twenty-three implants were installed (208 uninfected/215 infected sites) in 186 patients (92 men/96 women) with a mean age of 57.1 years old. The survival rate of implants was 91%. Approximately half (215/50.8%) of the alveoli that received immediate implants had chronic apical periodontitis associated with the extracted teeth, and 191 (88.8%) of these survived until the last follow-up visit. When the infection-free sites were analyzed, this frequency was higher (93,3%), but the presence of chronic apical periodontitis did not show statistical significance in the implant failure (p=0.167). Smokers with a consumption of more than 20 cigarettes/day and short implants had more failures (OR:7.66, p=0.012; OR:14.06, p=0.002; respectively). Conclusions: Short implants and consumption of more than 20 cigarettes/day were important predictors for failure of immediate implants, regardless of presence of chronic apical periodontitis. Key words:Osseointegration, dental implant, smokers, study, immediate dental implant loading.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to analyze the internal morphology of deciduous molars through the use of computed microtomography in a sample from Rio de Janeiro. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Thirty maxillary and 30 mandibular deciduous molars (n = 60), divided in first and second primary molars, were scanned by computed microtomography. The teeth were evaluated for root number, root canals, Vertucci classification, root curvature, presence of lateral canals, furcation dentin thickness, structure model index (SMI), volume, and canal surface area. RESULTS: The results showed 100% of maxillary molars had three roots and Vertucci type I canal was more prevalent in this group. In the mandibular ones, type IV was more frequent in the mesial root and class I in the distal root and the cavo-interradicular canal occurred in 2 specimens. Dentin thickness in the furcation region measured 1.53 and 1.59 mm in the maxillary and mandibular, respectively. Volume and area parameters varied according to the evaluated canals and SMI demonstrated that all canals had a cylindrical shape. CONCLUSION: More detailed information about the internal anatomy of the primary molars has been described, which may help strategies in the preparation of these root canals.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To compare the expression of IL-17 in periapical lesions (cysts and granulomas) among elderly individuals and adults. We selected 20 periapical lesions of the elderly (12 granulomas and eight cysts) and 20 periapical lesions of adults (12 granulomas and eight cysts). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Immunohistochemistry was performed using a specific antibody for IL-17. The slides were subdivided into five high magnification fields and then the images were observed through an optical microscope. According to the number of positive markings for the antibody, grades were given, ranging from 0 to 2. RESULTS: The results demonstrate that there was no statistical difference when comparing the expression of IL-17 between cysts and granulomas of both groups (study group: cysts 0.7 ± 0.21 × granulomas 0.96 ± 0.58, p = .61; control group: cysts 0.37 ± 0.16 × granulomas 0.31 ± 0.23, p = .27). The comparison between adult (control group) and elderly patients (study group) showed a statistical difference both in cysts (study group: 0.7 ± 0.21 × control group: 0.37 ± 0.16, p = .007) and in granulomas (study group: 0.96 ± 0.58 × control group: 0.31 ± 0.23, p = .0009), in which elderly patients had a higher expression of interleukin 17, in relation to adult patients. CONCLUSION: We concluded that elderly patients have a higher expression of IL-17 in both cysts and granulomas, when compared to adult patients.
RESUMO
Persistent inflammatory responses in the elderly may act as modifiers on the progression and repair of chronic apical periodontitis lesions (CAPLs). While the involvement of IL-1ß, IL-6 and TNF-α in inflammatory responses and, particularly, in CAPL has been documented, their expression in elderly patients needs to be further characterized. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the expressions of pro-inflammatory cytokines in CAPL from elderly individuals with young/middle-aged individuals. Thirty CAPL (15 cysts and 15 granulomas) from elderly patients (>60 years) and 30 CAPL (15 cysts and 15 granuloma) from young/middle-aged individuals (20-56 years) were selected. Immunohistochemical reactions were performed against IL-1ß, IL-6 and TNF-α. The slides were subdivided into five high-magnification fields and analyzed. The number of positive stains was evaluated for each antibody. There was no significant difference between the cytokines when the cysts and granuloma were compared in the two groups. In the young/middle-aged, only IL-1ß showed a difference and was significantly higher in granulomas (p = 0.019). CAPL pro-inflammatory cytokine levels in the elderly were significantly higher than in young/middle-aged individuals (p < 0.05). The pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1ß, IL-6 and TNF-α were significantly higher in CAPL in the elderly compared with the young/middle-aged group. Further elaborate research studies/analyses to elucidate the reasons for and consequences of inflammation in the elderly are recommended.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) colonization in Atopic Dermatitis (AD) patients can contribute to worsening their clinical condition. OBJECTIVE: A cohort study was carried out to determine the incidence of MRSA acquisition and its risk factors in AD children. METHODS: Patients with AD (2 months-14 years old) were followed up for about 1 year at a reference center for AD treatment in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from September 2011 to February 2014. Nasal swabs from patients and contacts were collected every 2 months. The SCORAD system assessed the severity of the AD. S. aureus isolates were evaluated to determine the methicillin resistance and the clonal lineages. RESULTS: Among 117 AD patients, 97 (82.9%) were already colonized with S. aureus and 26 (22.2%) had MRSA at the first evaluation. The incidence of MRSA acquisition in the cohort study was 27.47% (n = 25). The SCORAD assessments were: mild (46.15%), moderate (37.36%) or severe (16.48%). Risk factors were: colonized MRSA contacts (HR = 2.27; 95% CI: 1.16-7.54), use of cyclosporine (HR = 5.84; 95% CI: 1.70-19.98), moderate or severe AD (HR = 3.26; 95% CI: 1.13-9.37). Protective factors were: availability of running water (HR = 0.21; 95% CI: 0.049-0.96) and use of antihistamines (HR = 0.21; 95% IC: 0.64-0.75). MRSA isolates carried the SCCmec type IV and most of them were typed as USA800/ST5. CONCLUSIONS: The high incidence of MRSA acquisition found among AD patients and the risk factors associated show that an effective surveillance of MRSA colonization in these patients is needed.

PURPOSE: Dysbiosis has been identified in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). The aim of this study was to carry out a systematic review of an electronic research that was carried out on articles published between January 2008 and September 2018. METHODS: Eight studies were selected after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. RESULTS: All articles targeted the hypervariable regions of the 16S rRNA gene. At the phylum level, it was found reduction of Bacteroidetes (2/8 studies) and increase of Firmicutes (2/8 studies). At the genus level, Rothia increased (1/8 studies) and decreased (2/8 studies) in tumor samples, and Streptococcus also was found increased (3/8 studies) and reduced (3/8 studies). Fusobacterium only increased in OSCC samples (3/8 studies). At species level, an increase in F. nucleatum subsp. polymorphum was more associated to OSCC (2/8 studies) than with controls, as was P. aeruginosa (3/8 studies). CONCLUSION: In summary, the results corroborated dysbiosis in OSCC patients, with enrichment of microbial taxa that are associated with inflammation and production of acetaldehyde. However, variations of study design and sample size were observed among the studies, as well as a shortage of more detailed analyses of possible correlations between risk habits and OSCC. This lack of more detailed analysis may be the cause of the inconsistencies in regard of the alterations reported for certain genera and species. In conclusion, there is an association between OSCC and oral microbiota dysbiosis, but its role in oral carcinogenesis needs to be clarified in more detail.

The number of patients that return for recall appointments has great importance to validate endodontic treatment outcomes. The purpose of this review was to investigate the rate of return on recall and the main factors that influence this rate of return. A literature review was performed in the PubMed database for the years from 1978 to 2017, using the following keywords: recall rate, endodontic treatment, endodontic retreatment, apical surgery. The inclusion criteria were: prospective studies in English, and in vivo research with humans, which included patient return rates. A total of 35 studies that fulfilled the established criteria were selected. The percentage of patients who returned on recall was 56%. More female patients (60%) attended the recall appointments than male (40%). The three main reasons for not returning were: patients did not observe the follow-up appointment (490), not returning due to a lack of interest (99) and changing their address (222). The age of the patients attending the appointments varied from 28.6 to 62 years old, with the highest percentage of patients that returned ranging from 40 to 52.5 years old. According to the literature the optimal rate of return for follow-up treatment should be greater than 80%, for the validity of the research. However, the reality presented in the studies is far from ideal. Many studies do not even mention these rates of return in their methodologies or in their results, which may mask the true treatment success rates.

Abstract Objective: To evaluate the factors associated with the occurrence of dental trauma in children up to six years of age and describe the results of clinical follow-up and possible sequelae. Material and Methods: A retrospective study was carried out with data collected from the dental records of 96 pediatric patients up to 6 years old with traumatized primary teeth who sought care from the. Pediatric Dental Trauma project of a private university in the city of Rio de Janeiro from July 2014 to July 2017, and who had clinical and radiographic follow-up for up to three months as of their initial visit. Results: 96 children (58.3% boys and 41.7% girls) included who presented 166 traumatized primary teeth. Intrusion was the most observed type of trauma and in 45.8% of cases, the care occurred one-week post trauma. The maxillary central incisors were the most affected teeth (97.6%). The prognosis of the dental elements with more than 3 months of follow-up was considered favorable, and 59.6% of the teeth did not present any clinical or radiological sequelae. Oral hygiene instruction and monitoring were the most common approaches. Conclusion: The prevalence of dental trauma in the present study was high and occurred mainly in domestic settings. The upper central incisors were the teeth that suffered the most injuries. The presence of patients at follow-up visits was an important factor for the positive result in most cases.

Introduction: Syphilis and HIV infections are sexually transmitted infections whose diagnosis and treatment contribute toward preventing congenital transmission. Objective: To report a case of three sexually transmitted infections detected in a male partner during Couple Consultation and syphilis in the female partner during prenatal care. Case report: A 34-year-old black female G2P1 pregnant woman was referred to an outpatient clinic of sexually transmitted infections in Vitória, Brazil, reporting a 30-day evolution of painless papular lesions in the external genitalia, suggestive of condylomata lata. Nontreponemal tests were positive for syphilis and negative for HIV. The husband reported unprotected receptive anal intercourse and possessed anal condylomatous lesions and perianal condylomata lata. He was positive for both HIV and syphilis. Histopathological findings showed low-grade HPV lesions and the PCR test found 16, 39, and 53 HPV subtypes. Treatment with benzathine penicillin G was successful for both partners. Conclusion: This study emphasizes the need for Couple Consultation during pregnancy to identify and treat possible sexually transmitted infections.
Introdução: As infecções por sífilis e HIV são infecções sexualmente transmissíveis cujo diagnóstico e tratamento contribuem para a prevenção da transmissão congênita. Objetivo: Relatar um caso de três infecções sexualmente transmissíveis detectadas em um parceiro masculino durante a consulta do casal e sífilis na parceira durante o pré-natal. Relato de caso: Uma gestante, negra, G2P1, 34 anos, foi encaminhada a um ambulatório de infecções sexualmente transmissíveis em Vitória, Brasil, relatando uma evolução de 30 dias de lesões papulares indolores na genitália externa, sugestivas de condiloma lata. Os testes não treponêmicos foram positivos para sífilis e negativos para HIV. O marido relatou relação sexual anal receptiva desprotegida e possuía lesões condilomatosas anais e condiloma lata perianal. Ele testou positivo tanto para HIV quanto para sífilis.

Objetivo: Descrever os conhecimentos sobre o beijo na boca e sua possibilidade de transmissão de doenças infecciosas em um grupo de adolescentes de escolas privadas de Nova Iguaçu/Rio de Janeiro, através deste estudo piloto. Metodologia: Estudo seccional em que foi aplicado um roteiro de perguntas semi-estruturado autoaplicável em adolescentes (de 18 e 19 anos) de ambos os gêneros, pertencentes a três escolas da rede de ensino privado do município de Nova Iguaçu no Estado do Rio de Janeiro. Resultados: De um total de 100 adolescentes que participaram deste estudo, mais da metade eram solteiros e do gênero feminino (61%), apenas estudantes como ocupação (88% do total) e 96% já haviam beijado na boca. A amostra selecionada demonstrou características próprias, com a alta frequência do conhecimento da possibilidade de transmissão de doenças infecciosas pelo beijo na boca e saliva (71%), que possivelmente se confirmou pela baixa ocorrência de lesões após o ato do beijo e pela observação da boca do parceiro antes de beijar. Conclusão: A pratica do beijo na boca e o sexo oral devem ser temáticas consideradas na assistência fornecida a adolescentes. O uso de estratégias preventivas e o acesso às redes sociais podem contribuir para a redução de situações de risco advindos de situações de vulnerabilidade.
Aim: To describe the knowledge about the kiss on the mouth and its possibility of transmission of infectious diseases in a group of adolescents from private schools in Nova Iguaçu / Rio de Janeiro, through this pilot study. Methodology: Cross-sectional study in which a self-administered semi-structured question script was applied to adolescents (18 and 19 years) of both genders, belonging to three schools of the private school system of Nova Iguaçu, Rio de Janeiro State. Results: Of a total of 100 adolescents who participated in this study, more than half were single and female (61%), only students as occupation (88% of the total) and 96% had already kissed the mouth. The selected sample demonstrated its own characteristics, with the high frequency of the knowledge of the possibility of transmission of infectious diseases by kissing in the mouth and saliva (71%), which was possibly confirmed by the low occurrence of lesions after the kiss and the observation of the mouth. of the partner before kissing. Conclusion: The practice of kissing on the mouth and oral sex should be thematic considered in the care provided to adolescents. The use of preventive strategies and access to social networks can contribute to the reduction of risk situations arising from vulnerability situations. Keywords: mouth, infectious diseases, adolescent (s), health education, strategies and oral health

Introduction: The occurrence of sexually transmitted infections with oral manifestations, such as syphilis, remains a challenge in the era of rapid tests associated with an adequate clinical evaluation in the patients' approach. Objective: To describe the clinical and laboratory aspects involved, from the diagnosis to prognosis, of three case reports of recent syphilis with oral manifestations attended at a university clinic in the city of Niteroi, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Case report: Three cases of recent syphilis with oral manifestations in the tongue region. The first one, a 38-year-old female patient who presented syphilis in regions of the body other than the oral cavity (case I); the second one, a 31-year-old male patient with oral ulcerative lesions with associated genital lesion (case II); and, finally, a 49-year-old female patient suspected of oral human papillomavirus (HPV) lesions, in which syphilis was confirmed after a long path to obtain her diagnosis (case III). All cases were laboratory tested at the time of diagnosis and received appropriate treatment and guidance. Conclusion: It was possible to observe through the present study that some situations need attention: evaluation of the oral cavity should occur concomitantly with the investigation of genital lesions; diagnosis hypothesis of occurrence of syphilis with oral manifestation should be considered in the clinical evaluation; oral lesions may present similar clinical manifestations, suggesting investigation of their possible infectious etiology.
Introdução: A abordagem das infecções sexualmente transmissíveis com manifestações orais, tais como a sífilis, ainda permanece um desafio na era dos testes rápidos associados à adequada avaliação clínica na assistência de pacientes. Objetivo: Descrever os aspectos clínicos e laboratoriais envolvidos, do diagnóstico ao prognóstico, de três casos clínicos de sífilis recente com manifestações orais atendidos em uma clínica universitária do município de Niterói, estado do Rio de Janeiro. Relato de caso: Trata-se de três casos de sífilis recente com manifestações orais na região de língua, que ocorreram em: uma paciente do sexo feminino, 38 anos, em que as manifestações da sífilis foram observadas em outras regiões do corpo e na cavidade oral (caso I); um paciente do sexo masculino, 31 anos, que apresentava lesões ulceradas orais com lesão genital associada (caso II); e, por fim, uma paciente do sexo feminino, 49 anos, sob suspeita de infecção pelo vírus do papiloma humano (HPV) oral, em que foi confirmada sífilis após percorrer um longo trajeto até o estabelecimento do seu diagnóstico (caso III). Todos os casos realizaram testes laboratoriais por ocasião do diagnóstico e receberam tratamento e orientação adequados. Conclusão: Foi possível observar pelo presente estudo algumas situações que necessitam de atenção: a avaliação da cavidade oral deve ocorrer de forma concomitante e sistemática com a investigação de lesões genitais; a hipótese diagnóstica de ocorrência de sífilis com manifestação oral deve ser considerada na avaliação clínica; lesões bucais podem apresentar manifestações clínicas similares a outras doenças, sugerindo investigação de sua possível etiologia infecciosa ou não.

A Síndrome de Apert, também chamada de acrocefalossindactilia tipo 1, é caracterizada pelo encerramento prematuro das suturas cranianas (craniossinostose), sindactilia simétrica das mãos e dos pés e anomalias faciais. Outras anormalidades observadas são atraso mental, anquilose articular e anomalias da coluna vertebral. Destacam-se, ainda, a hipoplasia da face média com Classe III, lábios hipotônicos, úvula bífida, erupção ectópica, má oclusão e pseudofenda palatina. A cavidade bucal desses pacientes apresenta normalmente uma redução no tamanho da maxila, em particular na direção anteroposterior. Essa redução pode resultar em apinhamento dentário e uma mordida aberta anterior. A mandíbula está dentro do tamanho e da forma normal, e simula um pseudoprognatismo. Anomalias dentárias, tais como dentes inclusos, erupção retardada, agenesia dentária, hipoplasia do esmalte, dentes ectópicos ou supranumerários são comumente observadas. Diante da necessidade de um tratamento multidisciplinar e da relevância do cirurgião-dentista no acompanhamento desses pacientes, o objetivo deste relato é descrever as manifestações bucais da síndrome, enfatizando as características mais frequentes no período de transição da dentição decídua para a dentição permanente.
Apert syndrome, also called acrocephalosyndactyly type 1, is characterized by the premature closure of the cranial sutures (craniosynostosis), symmetric syndactyly of the hands and feet and facial anomalies of the midline. People with Aper syndrome have craniofacial abnormalities as exophthalmos, ocular hy-pertelorism, broad and short nose with a bulbous tip. The patients have hypoplasia midface with Class III, hypotonic lips, cleft uvula, ectopic eruption, malocclusion and pseudo cleft palate. The oral cavity usually these patients showed a reduction in the size of the jaw, in particular in the rearward direction. This reduc¬tion may result in tooth crowding and in an anterior open bite. The jaw size is within the normal way and simulates a pseudoprognathism. Dental anomalies, such as impacted teeth, delayed eruption, tooth agenesis, enamel hypoplasia, ectopic or supernumerary teeth are commonly observed. Given the need for a multidis¬ciplinary approach and the relevance of the dentist in monitoring these patients, the objective of this report is to describe the oral manifestations of the syndrome emphasizing the most common features in the transition period of the deciduous dentition to the permanent dentition.
