RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To map the current scientific landscape regarding the association/causality of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) after tooth extraction under bisphosphonate (BF) therapy to identify knowledge gaps and guide future research. DATA: This review used the PCC strategy (P = Patient; C = Concept; C = Context). SOURCES: The MEDLINE/PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science/Clarivate Analytics, and gray literature databases were used. STUDY SELECTION: Searches were conducted by two independent reviewers until April 2024. Studies involving prior BF use and tooth extraction in humans or animals were included. Among the 176 studies, 73 (41.4 %) were in animals, and 103 (58.5 %) were in humans. Brazil led in animal studies (n = 14; 19.1 %), while Italy led in human studies (n = 14; 13.6 %). Zoledronic acid was the most cited BF (79.4 % in animals; 34.9 % in humans), with intravenous administration being most frequent (38.3 % in animals; 35.9 % in humans). The mandible was the main extraction site (n = 36 in animals; n = 41 in humans). In 91.7 % of the animal studies, sequelae compatible with osteonecrosis signs and symptoms were observed, with bone necrosis being most common (n = 39; 53.4 %). In humans, 93.2 % of studies presented 239 sequelae, with bone necrosis (n = 53; 22.1 %) being the most cited. The main location of sequelae was the mandible (n = 36 in animals; n = 41 in humans). CONCLUSIONS: Animal studies highlighted bone exposure, notably using murine models, with a significant Brazilian contribution. In human studies, bone necrosis was the main sequela of MRONJ, which has been reported by researchers in the Italy. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: These findings underscore the importance of careful consideration and monitoring of patients who have a history of bisphosphonate use and who are undergoing tooth extraction, highlighting the potential risk of MRONJ.

Introduction: Torque teno virus (TTV) has been pointed as an endogenous marker of immune function, the objective of this study was to investigate the TTV viral load in plasma and saliva of cirrhotic individuals and correlate it with clinical characteristics. Methods: Blood, saliva, clinical data from records and laboratory tests were collected from 72 cirrhotic patients. Plasma and saliva were submitted to real-time polymerase chain reaction for quantification of TTV viral load. Results: The majority of the patients presented decompensated cirrhosis (59.7%) and 47.2% had alterations in the white blood series. TTV was identified in 28 specimens of plasma (38.8%) and in 67 specimens of saliva (93.0%), with median values of TTV copies/mL of 90.6 in plasma and 245.14 in saliva. All the patients who were positive for TTV in plasma were also positive in saliva, with both fluids having a moderately positive correlation for the presence of TTV. There was no correlation between TTV viral load, either in plasma or in saliva, and any of the variables studied. Conclusion: TTV is more frequently found and in greater amount in the saliva than in the plasma of cirrhotic patients. There was no correlation between TTV viral load and clinical parameters.
RESUMEN
Introdução: lesões gnáticas pediátricas são comumente assintomáticas e diagnosticadas em exames de imagem de rotina. Entretanto, algumas podem cursar com dor, assimetria facial, destruição óssea e rápida evolução, requerendo diagnóstico preciso e precoce. Objetivo: o objetivo desse estudo é reportar o processo de diagnóstico e tratamento de um extenso cisto dentígero (CD) em um paciente pediátrico. Relato do caso: um menino de 5 anos idade apresentou queixa de aumento de volume doloroso na região posterior de mandíbula com tempo de evolução de 4 meses. A tomografia computadorizada demonstrou uma imagem hipodensa, bem delimitada, envolvendo a coroa do dente 37, causando a expansão da cortical vestibular e erosão da cortical lingual, com aproximadamente 3cm. Com as hipóteses diagnósticas de fibroma ameloblástico ou CD, a lesão foi enucleada totalmente. Microscopicamente, observou-se uma lesão cística com revestimento epitelial odontogênico, áreas de hiperplasia e exocitose, além de cápsula de tecido conjuntivo densamente colagenizado, com áreas de hemorragia e infiltrado inflamatório linfoplasmocitário. Resultados: baseado nas características clínicas, imagenológicas e histopatológicas, o diagnóstico final foi de CD inflamado. O paciente continua em acompanhamento clínico e radiográfico, com ausência de recidiva. Conclusão: CD inflamados em pacientes pediátricos podem apresentar comportamento peculiar e mimetizar outras lesões de natureza odontogênica. O diagnóstico precoce permite uma menor morbidade associada aos tratamentos cirúrgicos.
Introduction: pediatric gnathic lesions are commonly asymptomatic and diagnosed in routine imaging exams. However, some of them may cause pain, facial asymmetry, bone destruction and rapid evolution, requiring accurate and early diagnosis. Objective: the aim of this study is to report the diagnosis and treatment of an extensive dentigerous cyst (DC) in a pediatric patient. Case report: a 5-year-old boy complained of painful swelling in the posterior region of the mandible with an evolution time of 4 months. Computed tomography showed a hypodense, well-delimited image involving the crown of tooth 37, causing buccal cortical expansion and lingual cortical erosion, measuring approximately 3cm. With the diagnostic hypotheses of ameloblastic fibroma or DC, the lesion was completely enucleated. Microscopically, a cystic lesion with an odontogenic epithelial lining with areas of hyperplasia and exocytosis was observed, in addition to a densely collagenous connective tissue capsule, with areas of hemorrhage and lymphoplasmacytic inflammatory infiltrate. Results: based on clinical, imaging and histopathological characteristics, the final diagnosis was inflamed DC. The patient remains under clinical and radiographic follow-up, with no recurrence. Conclusion: inflamed DC in pediatric patients may show a peculiar behavior and mimic other odontogenic lesions. Early diagnosis allows for lower morbidity associated with surgical treatments.

Introdução: o lúpus eritematoso sistêmico (LES) é uma doença autoimune, crônica, multissistêmica, de etiologia desconhecida e com acometimento variado. Objetivo: revisar narrativamente a literatura quanto às principais complicações sistêmicas encontradas em indivíduos com LES e suas repercussões no manejo odontológico. Fonte dos dados: a busca foi realizada no PubMed/MEDLINE, utilizando vocabulário controlado (MeSH terms), termos livres e operadores booleanos (AND e OR). Foram incluídos artigos dos últimos 10 anos, sem restrição de idioma ou região geográfica, os quais tratavam das principais doenças crônicas que afetam pessoas com LES e artigos que mencionaram o tratamento odontológico nesses indivíduos. Síntese dos dados: as manifestações clínicas mais referidas foram as cardiovasculares, hematológicas, cutâneas, pulmonares, renais e neuropsiquiátricas, além das alterações decorrentes do uso crônico de medicamentos utilizados no controle e tratamento da doença, como a osteoporose e o diabetes melito. Apesar das manifestações sistêmicas encontradas em indivíduos portadores de LES influenciarem diretamente na conduta do cirurgião dentista, não há trabalhos robustos quanto ao tratamento odontológico desses pacientes. As consultas odontológicas devem ser individualizadas e adaptadas de acordo com as necessidades individuais e os protocolos existentes para cada uma das complicações apresentadas. Conclusão: o atendimento odontológico de pessoas com LES é desafiador por causa das múltiplas complicações sistêmicas, dos medicamentos de uso contínuo e da falta de protocolos odontológicos específicos para essa população.
Introduction: systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune, chronic, multisystemic disease of unknown etiology and with great variability of clinical manifestations. Objective: to critically review the literature regarding the main systemic complications found in individuals with SLE and their repercussions on dental management. Sources of data: the search was performed on PubMed/ MEDLINE, using controlled vocabulary (MeSH terms), free terms and Boolean operators (AND/OR). Articles from the last 10 years were included, without language or geographic region restriction, which discussed the main chronic diseases that affect people with SLE and articles that mentioned dental treatment in these individuals. Synthesis of data: the most mentioned clinical manifestations were cardiovascular, hematological, cutaneous, pulmonary, renal and neuropsychiatric, in addition to alterations associated with the chronic use of medication, such as osteoporosis and diabetes mellitus. Although the systemic complications found in individuals with SLE directly influence the dentist's clinical decision, there are no robust studies regarding the dental treatment of these patients. Dental consultations must be individualized and adapted according to the existing protocols for each of the presented complications. Conclusion: dental care for people with SLE is challenging because of the multiple systemic complications, the continuous use of medications and the lack of specific dental protocols for this population.

OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to quantify intraoperative bleeding in patients with cirrhosis and correlate it with clinical characteristics and laboratory coagulation tests. STUDY DESIGN: A case-control study was carried out with 74 patients with cirrhosis who were submitted to preoperative coagulation tests (complete blood count, platelet count, prothrombin time/international normalized ratio, thrombin time, activated partial thrombin time, platelet aggregation, fibrinogen, protein C, protein S, antithrombin, and von Willebrand factor level and activity). The levels of nitrogen compounds that can affect the platelet function were determined in saliva and blood by using automated enzymatic-colorimetric assays. RESULTS: Patients with cirrhosis had changes in almost all coagulation tests. The average volumes of intraoperative bleeding and blood lost per minute in the study group (5.36 mL/min and 0.19 mL/min, respectively) were greater than those in the control group (3.05 mL/min and 0.11 mL/min, respectively; P < .05). In the control group, ascites (P = .012) and presence of periapical lesion (0.034) were positively correlated with bleeding (mL/min). With regard to coagulation tests and nitrogen compounds, only a positively moderate correlation with the platelet aggregation test was observed. CONCLUSIONS: No patients had hemorrhagic events and it was not possible to correlate a greater amount of bleeding with coagulation tests or nitrogen compounds in the study group.

Pacientes com cirrose hepática podem desenvolver osteoporose como complicação relacionada ao déficit funcional hepático. O objetivo desse estudo é o de avaliar a presença de proteínas relacionadas ao metabolismo ósseo (RANKL, OPG, IL-1?, IL-6 e TNF-?) na saliva e no sangue de pacientes cirróticos e compará-los com o índice da cortical mandibular (ICM), relacionado à densidade mineral óssea, em radiografias panorâmicas. Trinta e oito pacientes cirróticos foram submetidos à anamnese, exame físico e tiveram amostras de sangue e de saliva não estimulada coletadas. Desses, 22 apresentavam radiografias panorâmicas que foram avaliadas segundo o ICM. As proteínas foram avaliadas através da tecnologia LuminexTM xMAP. Foram considerados estatisticamente significativos valores de p <=0.05. A maioria dos pacientes era do sexo masculino (68,4%), com idade média de 50,61 anos, média de MELD de 18 pontos no momento da consulta e média de 21,34 meses na fila de espera para o transplante. A análise das radiografias panorâmicas permitiu constatar que a maior parte da amostra apresentava alguma modificação na cortical mandibular sugestiva de alterações osteoporóticas (72,7%). O perfil de expressão das proteínas foi bastante variável no sangue e na saliva. Correlação estatisticamente significativa foi observada entre a expressão salivar de RANKL e OPG em pacientes com ICM alterado. Não foi observada relação estatisticamente significante entre o perfil das proteínas e a etiologia da cirrose, tempo na fila de transplante hepático, idade e sexo dos pacientes. As proteínas RANKL, OPG, IL-1?, IL-6 e TNF-? se comportam de maneira diferente na saliva e no sangue. Valores elevados de RANKL e OPG em saliva estão relacionados com ICM sugestivo de osteoporose em pacientes cirróticos, e propõe-se que esse aumento ocorra devido ao microambiente inflamatório local.

BACKGROUND: Osteoporosis and periodontitis are both diseases that induce bone resorption. The objective of this study was to verify through panoramic radiography analysis whether patients with osteoporosis have a greater risk of periodontal disease (horizontal alveolar bone defect and vertical alveolar bone defect) when compared with patients without osteoporosis. METHODS: In all, 100 women were selected: 50 with osteoporosis (T-score < -2.5 DP) and 50 without osteoporosis (T-score > -2.5 DP), using the T-score of proximal radius. Logistic regression test was performed to assess the risk of panoramic radiographic periodontal defects (horizontal and vertical bone defect), age, and bone mineral density influence. RESULTS: Advanced age women were three times more likely to present osteoporosis. Patients with osteoporosis have significantly higher risk (4.46 times) of presenting horizontal alveolar bone defect. Vertical alveolar bone defect results were nonsignificant. CONCLUSION: Our study results corroborate the literature trend that osteoporosis may influence the progression of alveolar ridge height loss (horizontal alveolar bone defect). Panoramic radiography may be used as a screening tool to help the diagnosis of periodontal bone loss in patients with osteoporosis.

Objetivo: Avaliar a saúde bucal de pacientes com cirrose hepática em fila de transplante. Materiais e Método: Foram avaliados 103 pacientes cirróticos quanto às características sócio-demográficas e histórico médico da cirrose hepática (etiologia, tempo de inclusão na fila de transplante, valor do MELD - Model for End-Stage Liver Disease, complicações da cirrose e medicações em uso). A avaliação da saúde oral foi feita através do índice de higiene oral simplificado (IHO-S), do índice de cárie dental (CPOD) e da sialometria. Foram realizadas análises descritivas após a tabulação dos dados. Resultados: A população estudada apresentava idade média de 54 anos, o sexo masculino era o mais prevalente e apenas 44% concluíram o ensino fundamental. Hepatite C e cirrose alcoólica foram as etiologias que, com mais frequência, levaram os pacientes a indicação de transplante hepático. Varizes esofágicas, ascite e hipertensão portal foram as complicações mais frequentes. O CPOD médio da população estudada foi considerado alto (23,3). Conclusão: A saúde bucal de pacientes cirróticos em fila de transplante não é satisfatória. Estudos longitudinais são necessários para investigar a relação entre focos de infecção oral e a ocorrência de infecções no pós-transplante hepático.
Objectives: To assess the oral health of patients waiting for a liver transplantation. Material and Methods: A total of 103 cirrhotic patients were evaluated for socio-demographic characteristics and medical history of liver cirrhosis (etiology, time of inclusion in the transplant list, MELD - Model for End Liver Disease - value, complications of cirrhosis and routine medications in use). In addition, simplified oral hygiene index (IHO-S), dental caries index (DMFT) and sialometry were performed to verify oral health. After tabulation of the data, descriptive analyzes were performed. Results: The mean age was 54 years, the male gender was the most prevalent and the elementary school was completed by only 44% of the studied population. Hepatitis C and alcoholic cirrhosis were the etiologies that, more frequently, led the patients to indication for liver transplantation. Esophageal varices, ascites and portal hypertension were the complications of cirrhosis most observed. The mean DMFT of the studied population was considered high (23.3 ). Conclusions: The oral health of cirrhotic patients in the waiting list for transplantation is not satisfactory. Longitudinal studies are needed to investigate the relationship between foci of oral infections and the occurrence of infections post-transplant liver.

Estudios longitudinales son necesarios para investigar la relación entre focos de infección bucal y la ocurrencia de infecciones en el post transplante hepático.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: Salivary gland tumors are complex and have a great histomorphological diversity; more than 30 histological subtypes are currently described and the study of proteins that help understand and differentiate these tumors is essential. We aimed to analyze the immunoexpression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and cyclin D1 proteins in pleomorphic adenomas (PA), mucoepidermoid carcinomas (MEC) and adenoid cystic carcinomas (AdCC) of salivary glands. METHODS: A total of 38 PA, 12 AdCC and 12 MEC underwent immunohistochemical study by the polymeric biotin-free technique. Immunopositive cells were analyzed semi-quantitatively. For statistical analysis, a significance level was set at p ≤ 0.05. RESULTS: Overall, these tumors were more prevalent in women (n = 37). The mean age of these patients was 58-year-old and the parotid gland was the most affected anatomic site (n = 33). All cases of AdCC and MEC showed immunopositivity to cyclin D1; however, 39.5% of the PAs were negative (p < 0.001). Regarding COX-2 immunoexpression, we observed that all cases of CME were positive, whereas 60.5% of the PA and 75% of the CAC analyzed were completely negative (p = 0.042). CONCLUSIONS: The overexpression of COX-2, observed only in MEC, emphasizes that salivary gland tumors have different profiles. Cyclin D1 is more immunoexpressed in malignant tumors. Together, these immunohistochemical findings may be useful in differentiating the studied tumors.

Background: Ameloblastoma (AMB), odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) and adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) are epithelial odontogenic lesions with diverse biologic profiles. Defects in regulation of apoptosis and cell cycle may be involved in the development and progression of those lesions, therefore we aimed to investigate the expression of Bcl-2, Bax and p53 to better understand the possible role of these proteins in AMBs, OKCs and AOTs. Material and Methods: The studied sample consisted of 20 AMBs, 20 OKCs and 20 AOTs. Immunohistochemistry technique was performed for the antibodies p53, Bcl-2 and Bax. Immunoreactivity was observed in the epithelial component and positive cells were counted in five fields (100x magnification). Statistical analysis was performed with Kruskal-Wallis and Spearman tests (p< 0.05). Results: All lesions exhibited staining for the three studied proteins. There was no statistically significant associations between the expression of proteins and the lesions, however we identified a positive correlation between the expression of p53 and Bcl-2 (r = 0.200) and a negative correlation between p53 and Bax expressions (r = -0.100). In addition, p53 and Bax were similarly expressed between AMBs and OKCs. Bcl-2 was similarly expressed in AMBs and AOTs. Conclusions: Apoptosis regulatory proteins, as well as cell cycle proteins, are differently expressed in epithelial odontogenic lesions and their expression is possibly related to the biological behavior of AMB, OKC and AOT (AU)

Moebius' syndrome (MS) is characterized by a nonprogressive facial palsy associated with impairment in eye abduction, which can be uni- or bilateral. Some authors raise the possibility that patients with MS may suffer from social stigmatism due to their facial dysmorphism and that constant teasing and bullying perpetrated by people in the same social circle are adjuvants in the development of low self-esteem, behavioral problems, and even psychiatric disorders. Psychological stress, anxiety, and depression are factors contributing to both development and impairment of autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The objective of this work is to report the case of a patient with MS who developed SLE. In the present case report, we have emphasized the importance of both clinical dental examination and surgeon-dentist in the early diagnosis of systemic diseases by considering that these conditions can affect both syndromic and normoreactive patients.

A luxação condilar é uma condição dolorosa que causa limitação funcional grave. Como tratamento, a redução manual com ou sem a ajuda farmacológica deve ser realizada o quanto antes. Em algumas situações, o deslocamento mandibular pode não ser notado pelos pacientes acometidos levando assim a omissão do diagnóstico por um longo período. Com isso, o tratamento cirúrgico da Articulação Temporomandibular (ATM) é indicado. O objetivo desse artigo é relatar um caso sobre a luxação condilar prolongada e seu tratamento.
The condylar dislocation is a painful condition that causes severe functional limitation. As treatment, the manual reduction with or without pharmacological aid must be performed as soon as possible. In some situations, the mandibular dislocation can not be noticed by affected patients thus leading to failure in this diagnosis for a long period. Thus, the surgical treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is indicated. The aim of this paper is to report a case of prolonged condylar dislocation that persisted for more than 8 months and its surgical treatment.

Resumo A hiperplasia angiolinfoide com eosinofilia (HALE) é considerada uma lesão vascular benigna rara que acomete, principalmente, o tecido cutâneo e subcutâneo da região de cabeça e pescoço, mas incomum na cavidade oral. Sua etiopatogenia permanece indefinida, sendo descrita como proliferação vascular reacional, malformação vascular ou neoplasia. Tem como principal diagnóstico diferencial a doença de Kimura. Este trabalho relata um caso de um paciente do sexo masculino, de 50 anos, que exibia aumento de volume nodular na mucosa do lábio superior, com 3 cm de dimensão e 7 anos de evolução. Após a biópsia excisional, o exame histopatológico mostrou lesão bem encapsulada multilobulada com proliferação de capilares sanguíneos com células endoteliais de aspecto epitelioide, infiltrado inflamatório difuso com linfócitos, plasmócitos, inúmeros eosinófilos e presença de folículos linfoides. A análise imuno-histoquímica revelou positividade para CD34 e Ki-67, o que, juntamente com o exame morfológico, direcionou o diagnóstico para HALE.
Abstract Angiolymphoid Hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE) is considered a rare, benign vascular lesion that mainly affects the skin and subcutaneous tissues of the head and neck, but is uncommon in the oral cavity. Its etiology remains unclear and it has been described as a reactive vascular proliferation, vascular malformation or neoplasm. Kimura's disease is the primary entity to consider in differential diagnosis. Here we report on a rare case of ALHE involving the upper lip of a 50-year-old male patient that had a nodular swelling with approximately 3 cm, 7 years after initial onset. An excisional biopsy was performed and histopathologic examination revealed a well-encapsulated, multi-lobed lesion with proliferation of blood capillaries, displaying endothelial cells of epithelioid appearance, diffuse inflammatory infiltrate with lymphocytes, plasma cells, numerous eosinophils, and presence of lymphoid follicles. Immunohistochemical tests were positive for the markers CD34 and Ki-67 that, in combination with the results of morphological examination, were suggestive of a diagnosis of ALHE.

ABSTRACT Osteoblastoma is a rare benign tumor that accounts for less than 1% of all bone tumors. About 10% of osteoblastomas are found in the skull bones and almost half of these cases involve the mandible, especially the posterior segments. This report describes the case of a 27-year-old female patient with a unilocular radiopaque expansive lesion in the left mandible, which had well-delimited margins and caused mild bone expansion. Microscopic analysis revealed the presence of mineralized material in the form of irregularly arranged vital trabeculae at different stages of mineralization. Osteocytes were trapped inside these trabeculae, which contained osteoclast-like multinucleated cells and voluminous pavement cells with hyperchromatic nuclei, sometimes interpreted as osteoblasts. Many bone-producing lesions have clinical, radiologic and histopathologic features that resemble osteoblastoma. The understanding and correlation of these findings are extremely important since they contribute to the correct diagnosis and appropriate treatment of this rare entity, improving its prognosis.
RESUMO Osteoblastoma é um tumor benigno raro que representa menos de 1% de todos os tumores ósseos e 10% estão localizadas nos ossos do crânio e quase metade destes casos afeta a mandíbula, especialmente os segmentos posteriores. Este relato descreve um caso de uma lesão radiopaca unilocular expansiva na mandíbula esquerda, com margens bem delimitadas, causando expansão discreta do osso em um paciente do sexo feminino de 27 anos de idade. O exame microscópico revelou presença de material mineralizado na forma de trabéculas vitais com diferentes estágios de mineralização dispostas irregularmente e exibindo osteócitos aprisionados em seu interior, células multinucleadas semelhantes a osteoclastos e pavimentação células volumosas que têm núcleos hipercromáticos, por vezes interpretados como osteoblastos. Muitas lesões produtoras de osso possuem características clínicas, radiológicas ou histopatológicas semelhantes ao osteoblastoma. Compreender e correlacionar todos esses achados é de extrema importância, uma vez que auxilia no correto diagnóstico adequado tratamento desta entidade rara, levando a um bom prognóstico.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Odontogenic tumors (OTs) are considered important among oral lesions because of their clinicopathological heterogeneity, and variable biological behavior. This paper aims to determine the frequency and distribution of OTs, over a period of 10 years, at a public university in Northeastern Brazil and compare this data with previous reports. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We reviewed all cases of OTs from oral pathology laboratory of University of Pernambuco (UPE), from 2004 to 2014. Diagnoses were re-evaluated and the tumors were classified according to the latest (2005) World Health Organization Classification of Tumors. In addition, we searched in the English-language literature retrospective studies on OTs that used the same classification. RESULTS: Within the total of 6028 oral biopsies, 289 (4.79%) were OTs. Of these, 287 (99.3%) were benign and 2 (0.7%) were malignant. The overall incidence was 31.1/million. Mandible-maxilla ratio was 2.5:1 and mean age 35 years. Keratocystic odontogenic tumor (KCOT) (34.6%) was the most frequent lesion, followed by ameloblastoma (AMB) (32.9%) and odontoma (ODO) (11.4%). CONCLUSIONS: OTs are uncommon neoplasms with geographic variation. Our clinicopathological features are according to literature. In the present study, KCOT was the most frequent one, showing that the new classification of OTs altered the distribution of these lesions and possibly made KCOT the most common OT observed in diagnostic services worldwide

Objetivo: o objetivo deste estudo é fazer uma revisão de literatura descrevendo os benefícios, as vantagens e desvantagens de modelos de prototipagem para o planejamento e a redução do tempo em cirurgia. Revisão de literatura: a prototipagem rápida é uma tecnologia que permite a duplicação morfológica de estruturas anatômicas em escala real, obtidas por meio de exames de imagem, resultando nos chamados biomodelos, que permitem a visualização tridimensional das estruturas anatômicas complexas, facilitando o planejamento pré-operatório de implantes. Considerações finais: a prototipagem possui amplo uso em odontologia, mais especificamente no campo da implantodontia e cirurgia bucomaxilofacial. Consiste em uma técnica aplicável, pois permite a realização da cirurgia guiada. Bem como esses protótipos permitem a redução do tempo cirúrgico, do tempo necessário de anestesia e do risco de infecção. Em Implantodontia, a técnica da prototipagem facilita a obtenção dos guias cirúrgicos, tornando-se um diferencial para que se consiga um perfeito planejamento reverso, ou seja, uma boa dinâmica e estética agradáveis. A prototipagem e a cirurgia guiada representam um novo horizonte na implantodontia de forma que os procedimentos cirúrgicos se tornam mais simples, seguros e previsíveis. Com esse tipo de procedimento é possível otimizar o tempo da intervenção cirúrgica e ainda gerar um maior grau de confiança, devido às simulações e informações obtidas pelos biomodelos.
RESUMEN
Os lipomas são as neoplasias mesenquimais mais frequentes do corpo humano. No aspecto histopatológico, são constituídos basicamente de adipócitos maduros. Clinicamente, apresentam-se como massas nodulares, sésseis ou pedunculadas, de consistência amolecida, aspecto gelatinoso e de superfície lisa; frequentemente são assintomáticos e sem ulcerações. O presente artigo tem por objetivo fazer o relato de caso de um lipoma na região submandibular, em íntimo contato com a artéria carótida externa, num paciente de 62 anos de idade, em que o tratamento proposto foi a biópsia excisional sob anestesia geral e acesso extraoral. Após a remoção total da lesão, foi realizada a limpeza da ferida cirúrgica seguida da síntese por planos. O caso foi proservado durante 18 meses, sem evidências de recidiva.

Metodologia: Foram coletados dados referentes ao aspecto socioeconômico, à gestação, à presença de alterações sistêmicas e bucais, ao uso de medicação de rotina ou complemento alimentar. Resultados: a amostra foi composta por 11 gestantes, enquadradas, em sua maioria, na 3ª década de vida. Quanto à presença de alterações sistêmicas, a Hipertensão arterial Sistêmica apresenta valores mais significativos, representando 42,85% (N=3), e destas, 18,18% (N=2) fazem uso de medicação para o controle da hipertensão. Quantoà frequência de escovação, 45,4% afirmam escovar os dentes 3 vezes ao dia, entretanto em relação ao uso do fio dental, a maior parte (63,6% N=7) afirma não fazer uso, o que explica o fato de 81%(N=9) possuir gengivite. No que se refere à semana gestacional em que ocorreu o parto, cerca de 27,27% (N=3) da amostra foi constituída de nascimentos pré-termo. No que se refere ao pH salivar, foram encontrados valores considerados, como capacidade tampão baixa (N=1) e básica (N=1). Conclusão: Conclui-se que a carência de instruções em higiene bucal e práticas profiláticas correspondem à maior necessidade de tratamento dessas pacientes.
Aim: The aim of this study is to evaluate periodontal disease and its association with premature birth in pregnant women in antenatal attendance at CISaM/uPE. Methodology: Data were collected on socioeconomic status, pregnancy, presence of systemic and oral changes, use of routine medication or food supplements. Results: The sample was composed of 11 pregnant women, most of them aged 20-29 years. as regards systemic alterations, systemic arterial hypertension presents the most significant values, accounting for 42.85 (N=3), and of these 18.18% (N=2) are regularly taking medication to control the hypertension. as for toothbrushing, 45.4% report brushing their teeth three times a day, while the majority (63.6% N=7) state that they do not use dental floss, which explains why 81% (N=9) have gingivitis. Regarding the week during which the birth occurred, about 27.27% (N=3) of the sample had premature births. The salivary pH values were considered to be low (N=1) and basic (N=1) buffering capacity (N=1). Conclusion: It is concluded that the lack of instruction on oral hygiene and prophylactic practices represent the major treatment need of these patients.
