ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this systematic review was to determine the orthodontic and dentofacial orthopedic treatments carried out in patients with ectodermal dysplasia to facilitate functional and aesthetic rehabilitation. METHODS: The systematic review was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis statement. We systematically searched PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Scielo, LILACS, EBSCOhost and Embase databases up to 6 January 2022. We included articles describing patients with any type of ectodermal dysplasia who received orthodontic or dentofacial orthopedic treatment to facilitate functional and aesthetic oral rehabilitation. The search was not restricted by language or year of publication. The quality of the studies was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute Quality Assessment Scale of the University of Adelaide for case series and case reports. The review was registered at the University of York Centre for reviews (CRD42021288030). RESULTS: Of the initial 403 studies found, 29 met the inclusion criteria. After applying the quality scale, 23 were left for review-21 case reports and 2 case series. The initial age of patients ranged from 34 months to 24 years. Thirteen studies were on hypohidrotic and/or anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia, of which two were X-chromosome linked. In one study, the patient had Wiktop syndrome, and in nine the type of ectodermal dysplasia was not specified. The duration of treatment was 7 weeks to 10 years. The treatments described were: fixed orthodontic appliances or simple acrylic plates designed for tooth movement, including leveling and aligning, closing of diastemata, retraction of impacted teeth in the dental arch; clear aligners; fixed and/or removable appliances for the correction of skeletal and/or dentoalveolar relationships; palatal expanders in combination with face masks for orthopedic traction of the maxilla; and orthognathic surgery. Only three studies provided cephalometric data. CONCLUSION: The level of evidence of the articles reviewed was low and most orthopedic and dentofacial orthodontic treatments described were focused on correcting dental malpositioning and jaw asymmetries and not on stimulating growth from an early age. Studies with greater scientific evidence are needed to determine the best treatment for these patients.

OBJECTIVE: The use of fluoridated toothpastes is considered the most rational method in dental caries control, and it is recommended for all ages people, but for this they must be established at a minimum concentration of 1,000 ppm of total soluble fluoride, in pediatric patients. The objective of the study was to determine the concentration of total and soluble fluoride present in toothpastes marketed in Spain for pediatric use. METHODS: A descriptive and cross-sectional study was carried out throughout 2019, analyzing 11 toothpastes for pediatric use marketed in Murcia, Spain. The concentration of fluoride (ppm F=mg F/Kg) total (FT), soluble (FTS) and fluoride ion (F) and MFP (FPO32-) was analyzed using an ion-specific electrode coupled to an ion analyzer. A descriptive study was carried out to determinate mean and standard deviations for each variable analyzed. RESULTS: Among the analyzed toothpastes, 45% contained NaF (sodium fluoride), 45% MFP (sodium monofluorophosphate) and 10% both types of salts. The abrasive used was silica. 98% of the analyzed toothpastes showed total fluoride contents similar to those described by the manufacturer, only 3 toothpastes had fluoride concentrations lower than those described. The range obtained from FT oscillated between 398 -1,474.6 ppm F, and 100% of the toothpastes did not show differences between values of total fluoride and soluble fluoride. CONCLUSIONS: Most of the analyzed toothpastes contain a concentration of soluble fluoride between 1,000-1,500 ppm Fluoride, corresponding to the values described by the manufacturers However, there are still toothpastes with values lower than those recommended, minimum 1,000 ppm F, that do not allow effective anticaries activity from a public health point of view.
OBJETIVO: El uso de pastas dentales fluoradas es considerado el método más racional en el control de caries dental, y es recomendado para personas de todas las edades, pero para ello han de establecerse en una concentración mínima de 1.000 ppm de fluoruro total soluble, en pacientes pediátricos. El objetivo del estudio fué determinar la concentración de fluoruro total y soluble presente en pastas dentales comercializadas en España para uso pediátrico. METODOS: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo y transversal durante el año 2019, analizando 11 pastas dentales de uso pediátrico comercializadas en Murcia, España. Se analizó la concentración de fluoruro (ppm F=mg F/kg) total (FT), soluble (FTS) e ión de Flúor (F) y de MFP (FPO32-) mediante un electrodo ion-específico acoplado a un analizador de iones. Se llevó a cabo un estudio descriptivo determinando las medias y desviaciones estándar para cada variable. RESULTADOS: Entre las pastas dentales analizadas, el 45% contenían NaF (fluoruro sódico), 45% MFP (monofluorofosfato de sodio) y un 10 % ambos tipos de sales. El abrasivo de todas era sílice. El 98% de las pastas dentales analizadas mostraban contenidos de flúor total similares a los descritos por el fabricante, solamente 3 pastas presentaban concentraciones de flúor inferiores a las descritas por el fabricante. El rango obtenido de FT oscilaba entre 398-1.474,6 ppm F, y el 100% de las pastas dentales no mostraron diferencias entre valores de flúor total y flúor soluble. CONCLUSIONES: La mayoría de las pastas dentales analizadas contienen una concentración de flúor soluble entre 1.000-1.500 ppm F, correspondiéndose con los valores descritos por los fabricantes. Sin embargo, todavía existen pastas dentales con valores inferiores a los recomendados de mínimo de 1.000 ppm F que no permiten tener la actividad anticaries efectiva desde el punto de vista de salud pública.

INTRODUCCIÓN: La caries sigue siendo la enfermedad crónica más frecuente en el niño y es considerada un problema de salud pública. El flúor es la principal medida protectora contra la caries dental y el agua de consumo es la principal fuente de ingesta de flúor. Objetivo El objetivo de nuestro trabajo fue calcular la concentración de ión fluoruro en el agua de abastecimiento de 10 zonas y en 10 aguas embotelladas comercializadas en la Región de Murcia. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: La concentración de fluoruro en las aguas se determinó con un electrodo ion-selectivo para flúor previamente calibrado con patrones de fluoruro preparados con TISAB II. RESULTADOS: En el agua de abastecimiento, se detectaron concentraciones de fluoruro entre 0.09 y 0.18 mgF/L (ppm) en las aguas embotelladas la concentración de fluoruro varió desde 0.04 a 0.50 ppm. CONCLUSIONES: El fluoruro está presente en aguas consumidas en la Región de Murcia pero en concentraciones que no alcanzan niveles preventivos para la caries dental. Es necesario prescribir suplementos de flúor en niños con alto riesgo de caries y para ello se deben contabilizar todas las fuentes externas de flúor, incluido el agua
INTRODUCTION: Dental caries remains the most frequent chronic disease in childhood and is considered a public health problem. Fluoride has proven effectiveness in the prevention of caries and drinking water is the main source of fluoride intake. The objective of this study was to determine fluoride concentrations in tap water from 10 areas and in 10 bottled waters sold in the Region of Murcia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The concentration of fluoride in water was determined using a fluoride ion-selective electrode with a direct technique previously calibrated with standard fluoride concentrations prepared with TISAB II. RESULTS: In tap water, fluoride concentrations from 0.09 to 0.18 mgF/L (ppm) were detected; in bottled waters the concentration of fluoride varied from 0.04 to 0.50 ppm. CONCLUSION: Fluoride is present in the water consumed in the Region of Murcia but in concentrations that do not prevent dental caries. Fluoride supplements should be prescribed in children at high risk of caries, and for this, all external sources of fluoride intake, including water, must be accounted for
