RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to explore the cross-sectional and prospective associations between self-reported functionality of complete dentures (FCD), satisfaction with complete dentures (SCD) and the ability to chew hard food (ACHF) on the one hand and the frailty index (FI) on the other hand among edentulous community-dwelling older Japanese people. METHODS: The study examined 770 edentulous participants of the Nihon University Japanese Longitudinal Study of Aging. The self-reported FCD, SCD and ability to chew six groups of food (from hardest to softest) with complete dentures were the independent variables at the baseline. The FI was computed including 40 deficits as the dependent variable at the baseline and 4 years later. Cross-sectional and prospective generalized linear regression models were fitted controlling for age, gender, marital status, education, working status and area of residence. RESULTS: The use of non-functional complete dentures and dissatisfaction with complete dentures were both associated with a higher FI cross-sectionally (3.9% [95% CI 2.2-5.6] and 3.2% [95% CI 1.5-4.9], respectively) and prospectively (3.9% [95% CI 2.0-6.0] and 3.3% [95% CI 1.3-5.3], respectively). Regarding the ability to chew, a higher FI at baseline was observed among those able to chew food of Group 2 (1.9%, [95% CI 0.1-3.7]) and Groups 4-6 (1.9%, [95% CI 0.1-3.7]), and a progressive increment in the FI, as the participants reported being able to chew softer groups of food at the follow-up (Group 2: 2.2% [95% CI 0.05-4.3]; Group 3: 3.6% [95% CI 1.2-6.0]; and Groups 4-6: 3.4 [95% CI 0.7-6.1]). CONCLUSION: Self-reported use of non-functional complete dentures, dissatisfaction with dentures and a reduced ACHF with complete dentures were associated with a higher FI both cross-sectionally and prospectively.

RESUMEN Objetivo: Comparar la cantidad y características de las prótesis dentales removibles parciales y totales, en el servicio de odontología del Hospital Nacional de Geriatría y Gerontología, en el periodo de tiempo comprendido del 1 de enero 2005 al 31 de diciembre 2008, equivalentes a 326 expedientes. Se tomó la base de datos del servicio de odontología de consulta externa especializada de los pacientes atendidos de los años 2005 al 2008, en los cuales se entregaron un total de 2786 prótesis dentales removibles. Materiales y métodos: Con base en el dato anterior se seleccionó la muestra no aleatoria a conveniencia hasta alcanzar el tamaño de 599 prótesis entregadas, examinando 326 expedientes del periodo de enero del 2005 a diciembre del 2008, con un nivel de confianza de 99% y un error de muestreo de 0.0466. La recolección de datos se realizó por medio del programa Microsoft Excel donde se utilizó una tabla en la que se anotó el número de expediente, fecha de inicio y conclusión de prótesis, tipo de prótesis, cantidad y color de prótesis, edad, género y domicilio del paciente por distrito, cantón y provincia. El procesamiento se realizó por medio de estadística descriptiva utilizando cuadros y gráficos. Resultados: Se determinó que el mayor porcentaje de rango de edad de personas que solicitaron prótesis removibles fue de 62 a 65 años, independiente si eran prótesis totales o parciales, los pacientes que requirieron dos prótesis fueron 273 de 326, en su mayoría los pacientes solicitaron prótesis totales para un total de 372 de 599 prótesis entregadas. De la guía de color utilizada en el HRBC los colores más requeridos fueron los tonos claros blanco amarillentos que corresponde al número 62 y 65; de los expedientes analizados la mayoría de los pacientes residían en San José con un total de 200 pacientes. Se concluye que el mayor porcentaje de edentulismo que se presento es el edentulismo total con un 62%, la prótesis más utilizada es la prótesis total superior removible y en su mayoría los pacientes requieren dos prótesis, con respecto al color no es concluyente para este estudio debido a los datos no disponibles en los expedientes analizados.
ABSTRACT Objective: Compare the quantity and characteristics of partial and total removable dental prostheses, in the dentistry service of the National Hospital of Geriatrics and Gerontology, in the period from January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2008. The database of the specialized outpatient dentistry service of the patients treated from 2005 to 2008 was taken, in which a total of 2786 removable dentures were delivered. Materials and methods: Based on the previous data, the non-random sample was selected for convenience until reaching the size of 599 protheses of 326 files, with a confidence level of 99% and a sampling error of 0.0466. Data collection was carried out through the Microsoft Excel program where a table was used in which the file number, date of start and conclusion of the prosthesis, type of prosthesis, amount and color of prosthesis, age, gender and address were used of the patient by district, canton and province. The processing was carried out by means of descriptive statistics using tables and graphs. Results: It was determined that the highest percentage of the age range of people who requested removable prostheses was 62 to 65 years, the patients that required two prostheses were 273 of 326. In their majority, the patients requested total prostheses for a total of 372 of 599 prostheses delivered. Of the color guide used in the HRBC, the most requested colors were the light yellowish-white tones corresponding to the number 62 and 65; of the files analyzed, most of the patients resided in San José with a total of 200 patients. Conclusion: It is concluded that the highest percentage of edentulism that is presented is total edentulism with 62%, the most commonly used prosthesis is the removable upper total prosthesis and for the most part patients require two prostheses, with respect to color it is inconclusive for this study due to data not available in the analyzed files.

This study aimed to identify factors associated with the need for complete dentures in one dental arch or both, among the elderly population. The cross-sectional household study was conducted with a representative sample of elderly people (65 years or older) in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, in 2015. The dependent variable was the need for complete dentures (in one arch or both), and independent variables were socioeconomic and demographic conditions, social capital, self-perception of oral health and access to dental services. Simple and multinomial logistic regression models tested effect measures (p < 0.05). A total of 5,948 elderly people participated. Results indicated that those with greater chances of needing a complete denture in one arch were male (OR = 1.54; CI95%:1.04-2.29), with fewer household goods (OR = 2.25; CI95%:1.50-3.38), lower monthly household income: R$501-1500 (OR = 3.44; CI95%:1.27-9.35), R$1501-2500 (OR = 4.11; CI95%:1.50-11.27), R$2501-4500 (OR = 2.76; CI95%:1.10-6.95), self-reported need for a complete denture (OR = 4.75; CI95%:3.08-7.35), ≥3 years since last dental appointment (OR = 1.80; CI95%:1.06-3.05), and dissatisfaction with last dental appointment (OR = 1.80; CI95%:1.06-3.05). There were more chances of the need for complete dentures in both arches among older elders (OR = 1.44; CI95%:1.06-1.88), with lower monthly household income: R$ < 501 (OR = 4.45; CI95%:1.71-11.60), R$501-1500 (OR = 4.01; CI95%:2.14-7.51), R$1501-2500 (OR = 2.95; CI95%:1.64-5.32), < 3 years of education (OR = 1.45; CI95%:1.13-1.85), feeling unhappy (OR = 2.74; CI95%:1.35-5.57), self-reported need for a complete denture (OR = 8.48; CI95%:5.75-12.50), dissatisfaction with their mouth (OR = 2.38; CI95%:1.64-3.46), ≥3 years since last dental appointment (OR = 4.28; CI95%:2.85-6.43), and dissatisfaction with last dental appointment (OR = 4.28; CI95%:2.85-6.43). The several dimensions of the determinants of the need for a complete denture reflect the influence of both demographic and socioeconomic aspects, social capital, self-perception of oral health and access to dental services.

BACKGROUNDS: Tooth loss is one of the major oral health problems among older Thai people. However, there is the existence of socioeconomic-related inequalities in dental service utilization, especially denture service. The aim of this study was to assess the determinants associated with inequalities in denture service utilization among older Thai people using the Andersen Behavioural model. METHOD: This cross-sectional study involved secondary data analysis of the 2014 survey of older Thai people (N = 38,695). The dependent variable was a public denture service utilization over the past 5 years. Determinants were classified as predisposing and enabling factors. Predisposing variables included age, sex, education, economic condition and dependency status. Enabling variables included working status, health behaviours, health care utilization experience and social/community support. Data were analysed by using bivariate and multivariable analyses at α = 0.05. For bivariate analysis, chi-square test was used to determine the association between dependent and each independent variable. Then, all variables were incorporated into a multivariable binary logistic regression. RESULTS: The odds of denture service utilization were significantly higher for individuals who were older, female, and had a higher educational level and health-promoting behaviors. A positive dose-response relationship was demonstrated between denture service utilization and increased quartile of household assets. CONCLUSIONS: Predisposing variables had a greater impact than enabling variables in denture service utilization among older Thai people. Despite free public denture service, socioeconomic-related inequalities persist. The government needs to reduce socioeconomic disparities to improve denture treatment inequality.

OBJECTIVE: To develop a budgetary impact analysis regarding the possibility of offering complete upper and lower dentures to an eligible population of elderly people (above 65 years) in the São Paulo state, Brazil. METHODS: The proportion of eligible population was calculated by assessing the prevalence of edentulous (upper and lower arch) and by defining the eligible group (public health system users). The budgetary impact analysis was designed under the following scenario: 5-year time horizon (2018-2022), prospect of municipal expenses with prostheses, and additional progressive incorporation of technology (upper and lower dentures) at an annual rate of 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, and 30%. Sensibility analysis was performed in 3 different situations (reference, more pessimistic, and more optimistic) based on the calculation of spending through assessed demand and epidemiological demand. RESULTS: The municipal cost for each denture, already discounted the value transferred by the union for this procedure, was R$50.97. The incremental impact on the budget measured by the epidemiological demand relative to assessed demand was approximately R$59 141 510 over 5 years, meaning an impact of 0.08% (0.01% more optimistic; 0.13% more pessimistic) of the "medium and high complexity care" budget and 0.09% (0.03%-0.14%) of the primary care budget. CONCLUSION: The budgetary impact of increasing the oral rehabilitation with complete dentures for elderly population in the São Paulo state is low relative to the expenses with primary or specialized care budgets. In addition, incorporation of denture rehabilitation would be feasible, according to the financial availability and priorities of each municipality.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the prevalence of dental prosthetic restorations in an adult population, to study the agreement between self-reports and clinical findings of prosthetic restorations, and to study answers from a questionnaire in relation to the prevalence of prosthetic restorations. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A questionnaire was sent to a sample of 10,000 adults. A further sample of 1000 individuals was invited to answer the questionnaire and also participate in a clinical study. The agreement between self-report and clinical findings was analyzed, as were the associations between prosthetic restorations and questionnaire responses, using the chi2 test. RESULTS: A total of 40% of the sample had fixed dental prostheses (FDP), 2.7% had removable dentures. The agreement between self-report and clinical findings was 93%. 34.7% of the individuals with no prosthetic restorations were university graduates and 4% of individuals with removable complete dentures. Oral health had the greatest impact on the quality of life of younger individuals with FDP, with an OHIP-14 (Oral Health Impact Profile) score of 7.3 for the age group 20-39 years compared to 4.9 for the age group 65-89 years. CONCLUSION: The questionnaire method can be a cost-effective way to determine the prevalence of prosthetic restorations.

Introdução: Perda dentária constitui indicador prévio de envelhecimento acelerado, em particular nos idosos institucionalizados, sendo preferencialmente tratada com reabilitações protéticas. Uma das manifestações patológicas do envelhecer que compartilha características com perdas dentárias é a síndrome da fragilidade. Objetivo: Avaliar relação entre uso de prótese total e síndrome da fragilidade em idosos institucionalizados. Métodos: Estudo transversal, com 69 idosos institucionalizados, realizado em João Pessoa-PB, Brasil. Foram utilizados formulário para avaliar saúde bucal, condição protética e testes específicos para variáveis do fenótipo de fragilidade. Na análise estatística foram aplicados testes t-Student e Qui-Quadrado. Resultados: A amostra caracterizou-se pelo predomínio de frágeis (49,3%) e usuários de prótese total (50,7%). Os pré-frágeis e frágeis apresentaram maior prevalência de edentulismo e de uso de prótese total (56,3% e 39,4%, respectivamente). Contudo, não foram encontradas diferenças significativas entre os grupos (p = 0,05). Conclusão: É sugerido que o uso de prótese total não influencia a fragilidade em idosos institucionalizados. (AU)
Background: Tooth loss is an early indicator of accelerated aging, in institutionalized elderly in particular, being preferentially treated with prosthetics rehabilitation. One of the pathological displays of to age, that share characteristics with tooth loss, is the frailty syndrome. Objective: Evaluate relationship between total prosthesis use, and frailty syndrome in institutionalized elderly. Methods: Cross-sectional study of 69 institutionalized elderly in the city of João Pessoa, Brazil. A form to assess oral, and dental health data, and specific tests for frailty phenotype variables were used t Student's and chi-square test was applied in statistical analysis. Results: The sample was characterized as predominantly denture complete use (50,7%), and frail (49,3%). Pre-frail, and frail exhibited highest prevalence of edentulous, and complete denture use (56,3% e 39,4%, respectively). However, no significant differences were found between groups (p = 0,05). Conclusion: It is suggested that complete denture use wasn't related to frailty in institutionalized elderly. (AU)

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Presently, data for the survival of 1-piece complete arch fixed implant-supported zirconia prostheses are limited. PURPOSE: The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the survival outcomes of 1-piece complete arch fixed implant-supported zirconia prostheses fabricated by a single dental laboratory supporting several clinicians. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Outcome data were collected over a 5-year period from a large commercial dental laboratory that fabricated 2039 1-piece complete arch fixed implant-supported monolithic zirconia prostheses. All prostheses were fabricated using the same zirconia system from 1 manufacturer, using standardized protocols. The zirconia prostheses were predominantly monolithic, with veneered porcelain restricted to the gingival region. Because a 5-year warranty against fracture was offered by this dental laboratory, prostheses that were returned to the laboratory for remake because of catastrophic failure (fracture) or technical complications were identified, and data were analyzed using a life table. RESULTS: Of the 2039 zirconia prostheses evaluated, at least 319 prostheses had a minimum of 3 years of clinical service, and 69 prostheses had a minimum of 4 years of clinical service. A total of 6 fractures were reported, resulting in a first-year interval survival rate of 99.8% and a 5-year cumulative survival rate of 99.3%. Six zirconia prostheses were returned to the laboratory during the 5-year period because of technical complications related to the debonding of titanium cylinders, and 3 prostheses were returned because of fracture of the titanium cylinders. No prostheses were returned because of chipping of the veneered gingival porcelain. CONCLUSIONS: Practice-based evidence from this large sample, short-term retrospective study showed that 1-piece complete arch fixed implant-supported zirconia prostheses with veneered porcelain restricted to the gingival region showed a cumulative survival rate of 99.3% in a 5-year period. The technical complication rate related to this type of prosthesis was minimal.

O objetivo desse estudo foi desenvolver uma infraestrutura de prótese total fixa sobre implantes em impressora 3D, elaborada em conjunto com uma guia cirúrgica digital, também impressa, diminuindo o número de sessões e substituindo a necessidade de moldagem logo após o procedimento cirúrgico. Para isso um paciente, sexo masculino, 60 anos de idade e apresentando apenas a presença do elemento dental 36 na arcada inferior, foi convidado a participar do estudo após leitura e assinatura de Termo de Consentimento Livre e Esclarecido. Foi realizada moldagem da arcada superior e inferior do paciente com alginato para confecção do modelo de estudo com gesso pedra especial. Os modelos foram escaneados com a utilização de scanner Xcad 3D, para a realização do planejamento cirúrgico e protético. A partir dos exames tomográficos foram obtidos os arquivos DICOM. Estes arquivos foram utilizados para o inicio do planejamento digital, sendo incluídos no software para planejamento específico. Foi realizado o planejamento virtual com o auxílio do software, sendo: instalação de 4 implantes do tipo hexágono externo de 13mm por 3,75mm cada, o que gerou automaticamente pelo software a guia cirúrgica para instalação dos mesmos. A mesma foi impressa com o uso de uma impressora 3D de polímeros. A guia cirúrgica continha quatro orifícios para instalação dos implantes planejados, permitindo também a instalação de a ut nts. p s a olo açao dos implantes, foram instalados pilares cônicos de 4,1mm de diâmetro com 3mm de altura de trans-mucoso. A barra protética final foi confeccionada com o mesmo padrão de conexão morse existente na guia cirúrgica, a partir de impressão 3D em material calcinável e fundido posteriormente. Dessa forma foi possível posicionar a barra sobre os abutments para confirmar e validar sua passividade. A técnica de impressão de barra protética guiada por uma guia cirúrgica também impressa e planejada em um software de planejamento odontológico específico demonstrou, em teste e análise em modelo de estudo, alta eficácia no aspecto de posicionamento 3D, adaptação da barra protética sobre os implantes e acertividade no que diz respeito a planejamento virtual / posição real dos implantes(AU)
Digital planning and preparation of guides and prosthesis with the help of 3D printers is a reality on a daily basis, but in this study, we look for Develop a fully digitized and software-driven process to design and execute polymer and titanium printed guides and prostheses. Those Printed parts would already be structural parts of the final prosthesis, Cases of total fixed prostheses. With this we could exclude laboratory phases of the process of prosthetic preparation, optimizing time, cost and reducing everyday problems that affect clinicians in such processes as repetitions, lack of adaptation of the prosthesis structure, teeth assembly, among others. Titanium printing of such a final structure would allow an immediate installation, in Immediate loading surgeries, of the final prosthesis with the best possible adaptation, Enabling the clinician to execute cases of extreme challenges Without the need for castings and welds, thus Aesthetics to the patient reducing treatment time with assertiveness(AU)

Antecedentes: El síndrome de Sjögren es una enfermedad autoinmune que empieza a manifestarse hacia los 45 años de edad y cuya incidencia aumenta con la edad. La sintomatología en la cavidad oral se caracteriza por boca seca o xerostomía. Gran cantidad de pacientes que la padecen son portadores de prótesis totales debido a la pérdida dental en edades avanzadas. Objetivo: Describir el caso de un paciente con síndrome de Sjögren a quien se le elaboró una prótesis con reservorio salival para disminuir síntomas orales. Métodos: Se realizaron ensayos de laboratorio para elaborar los reservorios buscando resistencia estructural de la prótesis; facilidad de colocación y retiro de las tapas de los reservorios para permitir la limpieza de los depósitos; estética y que contuvieran la mayor cantidad posible de saliva artificial. Los diseños se probaron en el paciente. Resultados: Después de realizar ensayos de prueba de la prótesis en ambos maxilares, el paciente comentó sobre la facilidad de retiro de las tapas, ausencia de nauseas, fonética normal, higiene adecuada, comodidad, solución parcial al problema de xerostomía y duración aproximada de tres horas una vez llenos los reservorios. Conclusión: Los prototipos finales proporcionaron mejores condiciones de los reservorios y aumentaron la cantidad de saliva. Se recomienda realizar estudios clínicos controlados para confirmar los hallazgos de este caso.
Background: Sjögren's syndrome is an autoimmune disease that manifests after the age of 45 years and whose incidence increases with age. Symptoms in the oral cavity includes dry mouth or xerostomia. Large number of Sjögren's patients wear complete dentures due to tooth loss at advanced ages. Objective: To describe the case of a Sjögren's patient for whom dentures with salivary reservoirs were made to reduce oral symptoms. Methods: Lab tests were conducted to find an optimum denture design with reservoirs. Requirements included: structural resistance, easy placement and removal of reservoir caps to allow cleaning, good esthetics, and containing the greatest amount of artificial saliva. Models were tried in the patient. Results: Several models were tried for both jaws. At the end, the patient reported about easiness to remove caps, absence of nausea, normal phonetics, adequate hygiene, comfort, and partial solution to the problem of xerostomia with an approximate duration of three hours once the reservoir was full. Conclusion: Final prototypes provided the best characteristics of reservoirs and stored the highest amounts of saliva. It is important to conduct clinical controlled trials to confirm the findings of this case.

The study studied the ratio of 17 adults with complete loss of teeth and using complete removable acrylic dentures, to the disease, taking into account the degree of stability of dentures during chewing. To determine the type of patient's attitude toward the disease, a clinical test method was used to determine the type of attitude towards the disease, in which the clinical-psychological typology of patients' attitude to 'illness' was realized, which provides the possibility of determining one of the twelve types of response. It was found that when using complete removable dentures, regardless of age and sex, the types of attitude towards the disease were more often noted, with a marked disadaptive behavior with a predominantly intrapsychic orientation of the response to the disease, which was manifested by characteristic reactions such as irritable weakness, anxious, depressed, oppressed state. The use of the cream to fix the removable dental prostheses Corega allowed to improve the stability of complete removable dentures, to eliminate the pronounced phenomena of mental disadaptation, and to create realistic treatment settings for patients, to help restore social ties.

Sarcopenia is an age-related loss of muscle mass and muscle strength or physical performance. There are limited data on the association between oral health and sarcopenia. To test the hypothesis that impaired dentition status was associated with sarcopenia, we conducted a cross-sectional study. A total of 272 community-dwelling Japanese adults aged ≥75 years for whom data were available from comprehensive health examinations conducted in 2015 were included in this study. During dental examination, the number of natural teeth and occluding pairs of natural teeth was counted. In denture wearers, the fit of the removable dentures was also evaluated. The criteria proposed by the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia were used to define sarcopenia. A multivariable logistic regression model was used to evaluate the association between dentition status and the presence of sarcopenia. The prevalence of sarcopenia was 25·7% (70/272). Compared to individuals with ≥10 occluding pairs of natural teeth, those with no occluding pairs of natural teeth had significantly higher risk of having sarcopenia (adjusted odds ratio, 3·37; 95% confidence interval, 1·07-10·61), after adjusting for possible confounders. In addition, compared to individuals with well-fitting dentures, those with ill-fitting dentures had significantly higher risk of having sarcopenia (adjusted odds ratio, 5·07; 95% confidence interval, 1·59-16·19). Our findings suggest that impaired dentition status is significantly associated with sarcopenia among community-dwelling Japanese adults aged ≥75 years. Future longitudinal studies with larger, more diverse populations are necessary to validate our findings.

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this systematic review was to evaluate the use of mini implants to retain complete overdentures in terms of survival rates of mini implants, marginal bone loss, satisfaction, and quality of life. DATA: This report followed the PRISMA Statement and PICO question. This review has been registered at PROSPERO under the number CRD42016036141. SOURCE: Two independent reviewers performed a comprehensive search of studies published until September 2016 and listed in the PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, and The Cochrane Library databases. The focused question was: is the use of mini implants feasible for prosthodontic rehabilitation with complete overdentures? RESULTS: The 24 studies selected for review evaluated 1273 patients whose mean age was 65.93 years; these patients had received 2494 mini implants and 386 standard implants for retaining overdenture prosthesis. The mean follow-up time was 2.48 years (range: 1-7 years). There was a higher survival rate of mini implants (92.32%). More frequent failures for maxillary (31.71%) compared with mandibular arches (4.89%). The majority of studies revealed marginal bone loss values similar to those of standard implants (<1.5mm). All studies verified an increase in satisfaction and quality of life after rehabilitation treatment with mini dental implants. CONCLUSION: The present systematic review indicates that the use of mini implants for retaining overdenture prosthesis is considered an alternative treatment when standard treatment is not possible, since it presents high survival rates, acceptable marginal bone loss, and improvements in variables related to satisfaction and quality of life. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Based on the results of this study, the use of a minimum 4 and 6 mini implants can be considered a satisfactory treatment option for rehabilitation of the mandibular and maxillary arches respectively with a complete overdenture.

PURPOSE: Older adults with intellectual disabilities (ID) are often edentulous. When total tooth loss occurs, they are very unlikely to wear complete removable dentures (CRDs) to restore oral function in Ireland. The reasons for this are unclear, though opinion holds that this is because dentists do not offer prosthodontic treatment to this group. In this study we ask edentulous older adults with ID why they do not wear dentures. METHODS: Cross-sectional survey data from Wave 2 of the Intellectual Disability Supplement to The Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing (IDS-TILDA) was examined to study reported denture wear among edentulous older adults with ID. RESULTS: Out of 692 participants, 186 were edentulous (26.9%), of whom 57 (30.6%) wore CRDs and 129 (69.3%) did not. Twelve of this 129 had dentures but did not wear them. Of the 117 respondents who reported that they did not have dentures, 99 (valid %=92.5%) did not want dentures, while only 8 did. No respondents in this study reported that they were denied denture therapy. Rather, they simply did not want dentures. Clinicians should understand that extra steps may be needed to ensure that consent is truly informed when patients opt for, or decline, complete denture therapy. CONCLUSION: While there is a high normative need for prosthodontic rehabilitation, expressed need is low. Extra steps may be necessary to ensure optimal outcomes for people with ID.

OBJECTIVES: The need for denture treatment in public health will increase as the population ages. However, the impact of dentures on nutrition, particularly overdenture treatment, remains unclear although the physical and psychological effects are known. We investigated whether treatment with a mandibular implant supported overdenture improves nutrient intake and markers of nutritional status better than a conventional complete denture in edentulous patients. DESIGN: Systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS: Medline, EMBASE and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched for eligible studies published up to April 2016. We included studies which compared the treatment effect of an overdenture to conventional denture on nutrition, in which primary outcomes included changes in intake of macronutrients and/or micronutrients and/or indicators of nutritional status. Two reviewers independently evaluated eligible studies and assessed the risk of bias. We used a fixed effects model to estimate the weighted mean difference (WMD) and 95% CI for change in body mass index (BMI), albumin and serum vitamin B12 between overdenture and conventional denture 6â months after treatment. RESULTS: Of 108 eligible studies, 8 studies involving 901 participants were included in the narrative appraisal. Four studies reported changes in markers of nutritional status and nutrient intake after treatment with a prosthetic, regardless of type. In a meta-analysis of 322 participants aged 65â years or older from three studies, pooled analysis suggested no significant difference in change in BMI between an overdenture and conventional denture 6â months after treatment (WMD=-0.18â kg/m(2) (95% CI -0.52 to 0.16)), and no significant difference in change in albumin or vitamin B12 between the two treatments. CONCLUSIONS: The modifying effect of overdenture treatment on nutritional status might be limited. Further studies are needed to evaluate the effectiveness and efficacy of denture treatments.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacture (CAD-CAM)-fabricated complete dentures (CD) seek to address the disadvantages associated with conventional CD fabrication. However, few if any randomized clinical trials, cross-sectional, and/or retrospective analyses are available for the clinical performance of CAD-CAM-fabricated CDs. PURPOSE: The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate clinician experience with digital CD fabrication attempted in a 2-visit protocol. The actual number of appointments required for insertion and the number of postinsertion adjustment visits, and whether the incidence of treatment complications was related to operator experience were recorded and evaluated. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Patients who had received CAD-CAM-fabricated CDs were identified from a retrospective chart review. The number of appointments needed to insert digital CDs in attempting the 2-visit fabrication protocol marketed by the company, the number of postinsertion adjustments, and the reported complications were counted. There was no control group for comparative purposes used in this study. Whether the experience level of the operator influenced the frequency of a complication, the number of appointments needed to insert the definitive prostheses, and the number of postinsertion visits was determined by using an analysis of variance assessed at the 95% confidence level (α=.05). The frequency of a complication at each of the levels of operator experience was analyzed using the Exact Mantel-Haenszel chi-square test. RESULTS: Of the 48 rehabilitated participants, 24 participants were treated at the predoctoral level and 24 were treated at the graduate prosthodontics resident level. A total of 31 participants satisfied the true 2-visit fabrication protocol, and the remaining 17 participants required additional clinical visits because of complications on the day of insertion. The CD prostheses of 5 participants from the sample population required remaking using the conventional method. The mean number of postinsertion adjustment visits was 2.08. Of the 90 arches completed, 22 prostheses could not be inserted at the second appointment. CONCLUSIONS: The mean number of appointments needed to insert the prostheses in both groups was 2.39 visits--not 2 as claimed by the company. The most common types of complications observed were lack of denture retention, inaccurate occlusal vertical dimension, and incorrect centric relation.

OBJECTIVE: To estimate the prevalence of self-reported gingival and periodontal conditions and their association with smoking, oral hygiene, indigenous origin, diabetes and location (urban or rural) in indigenous and non-indigenous adults in Chiapas, Mexico. METHODS: A cross-sectional study of 1,749 persons, ≥20 years of age, living in four rural and four urban marginal localities in Comitán (Chiapas, México). The variables investigated were: age; sex; indigenous origin; oral hygiene; halitosis; chewing ability; gingival conditions; periodontitis; smoking; alcoholism; diabetes; and location. Bivariate analysis and a logistic regression model were used to identify the association of periodontitis with the independent variables. RESULTS: In total, 762 (43.6%) indigenous and 987 (56.4%) non-indigenous persons were interviewed. Their mean age was 41 ± 14 years, 66.7% were women and 43.8% lived in rural locations. Gingival problems were reported by 68.5% and periodontitis by 8.7%. In total, 17.9% had used dental services during the previous year, 28.7% wore a removable partial or a complete dental prosthesis, 63.7% had lost at least one tooth, the prevalence of diabetes was 9.2% and the prevalence of smoking was 12.2%. The logistic regression model showed that age, diabetes and the interaction between rural location and indigenous origin were associated with the presence of periodontitis. CONCLUSIONS: Indigenous people living in rural areas are more likely to have periodontitis. It is necessary to promote oral health practices in indigenous and marginalised populations with a focus on community-oriented primary care.

Introdução: As próteses totais visam conservar a função do sistema estomatognático do paciente totalmente edêntulo. Porém, na mucosa bucal podem aparecer manifestações cuja principal causa são as próteses totais mal adaptadas. Objetivo: o presente estudo objetiva investigar a proliferação tecidual das lesões causadas por próteses totais removíveis através do método de impregnação pela prata (AgNOR), com isso facilitando o tratamento e a determinação do prognóstico das lesões a serem estudadas. Metodologia: foram selecionados todos os casos das lesões bucais mais comumente associadas à utilização de próteses totais registradas no Serviço de Diagnóstico Histopatológico do ICBUPF nos anos de 2012 e 2013, tendo sido encontrados 5 casos de granuloma piogênico, 5 casos de hiperplasia de fundo de sulco, 5 casos de fibroma de irritação e 2 casos de fibroma ossificante periférico. Os cortes histopatológicos das lesões foram impregnados pela prata (método AgNOR), tendo sido obtido, com auxílio do programa Image Tool®, o número de NORs de 100 células de cada caso, resultando numa média de NORs em cada grupo de lesões. Resultados: os resultados obtidos foram tabulados em planilha eletrônica e a comparação do número médio de NORs de cada grupo foi realizado por meio do teste estatístico ANOVA, 5% de significância. Resultados: o grupo das hiperplasias de fundo de sulco mostrou média de 2,41 NORs por núcleo, o grupo dos granulo mas piogênicos mostrou 2,44, o fibroma de irritação 2,22, e o fibroma ossificante periférico mostrou média de 1,89 NORs por núcleo celular, diferindo estatisticamente esta lesão das anteriormente mencionadas (p = 0,002). Conclusão: o fibroma ossificante periférico mostrou ser a lesão causada por prótese total removível com a menor atividade proliferativa celular. Tal estudo precisa ser complementado por futuros estudos clínicos.
Introduction: the total dentures are aimed at preserving the function of the stomatognathic system of the fully edentulous patient. However, in the oral mucosa may appear manifestations whose main cause are the totally unsuitable dentures. Objective: this study aims to investigate the proliferation of tissue lesions caused by removable dentures by impregnation method for silver (AgNOR), thereby facilitating the treatment and determining the prognosis of the lesions to be studied. Methodology: we selected all cases of oral lesions most commonly associated with the use of dentures recorded in Histopathological Diagnostic Service ICB-UPF in the years 2012 and 2013, having been found 5 cases of pyogenic granuloma, 5 cases of hyperplasia, 5 cases of irritation fibroma and 2 cases of peripheral ossifying fibroma. Histopathological lesions cuts were impregnated by silver (AgNOR method), having been obtained with the aid of the program Image Tool®, the number of NOR cells 100 in each case, resulting in an average NORs in every group of lesions. Results: the results were tabulated in a spreadsheet and comparing the average number of NORs of each group was conducted through ANOVA, 5% significance level. Results: The group of hyperplasias showed average of 2.41 NORs per nucleus, the group of pyogenic granulomas showed 2.44, the irritation fibroma 2.22, and peripheral ossifying fibroma showed average of 1.89 NORs for cell nucleus, differing significantly from that of the aforementioned lesions (p = 0.002). Conclusion: the peripheral ossifying fibroma proved the injury caused by removable dentures with lower cell proliferative activity. This study needs to be complemented by future clinical studies.
