RESUMO
This study aimed to compare two beta-tricalcium phosphates with different particle sizes in human maxillary sinuses lifting. The immunolabeling of cells for RUNX2 and VEGF were performed to evaluate the osteoblast precursor cells and the vascular formation after 6 months of bone repair. Ten maxillary sinuses were grafted with autogenous bone graft (Group 1), 10 were grafted with ChronOs® (Group 2), and 10 were grafted with BETA-TCP® (Group 3). After 6 months of bone healing, biopsies were obtained to assess the new bone formed by histomorphometric and immunohistochemical evaluation for RUNX2 and VEGF. The mean bone formation for Group 1 was 51.4 ± 17.4%. Group 2 presented 45.5 ± 9.9%, and Group 3 conferred 35.4 ± 8.0% of new bone formation. The RUNX2 offered low for Groups 1 and 2 with high cellular activity for osteoblast in Group 3. The VEGF immunolabeling was moderate for Groups 1 and 2 and intense for Group 3. In conclusion, it was possible to show that the bone substitutes evaluated in the present study presented suitable outcomes for bone regeneration, being an alternative for the autogenous bone graft in maxillary sinus bone height reconstruction.
RESUMO
As coroas de cerâmica pura estão ganhando força na odontologia uma vez que as exigências estéticas e mecânicas são cada vez mais evidentes, uma vez que as próteses metal free do tipo bicamada, não raramente, apresentam lascamento da cerâmica de cobertura como a principal falha a longo prazo, então iniciou-se o uso de próteses monolíticas. Paralelamente é crescente a busca e o uso de implantes osseointegráveis para suportar as reabilitações parciais, sendo a primeira opção para as reabilitações orais de áreas edêntulas. Logo, o objetivo deste estudo clínico prospectivo, randomizado de boca dividida é avaliar o desempenho clínico e a previsibilidade, caracterizando o número e o tipo de complicações e falhas precoces como desgaste do antagonista, perda óssea, inflamação gengival e falhas mecânicas que possam ocorrer em PPFs de três elementos implantossuportadas com retenção mista em região posterior de mandíbula em zircônia monolítica e infraestrutura de zircônia com cerâmica de cobertura, além de avaliar a percepção estética e satisfação do paciente com cada uma delas. Os pacientes selecionados (N=2) passarão por procedimentos cirúrgicos para instalação de dois implantes na região posterior de mandíbula, sendo dois de cada lado. Após três a quatro meses os cicatrizadores serão instalados e a moldagem será realizada para confecção das próteses seguindo a aleatorização do lado da mandíbula. Serão avaliados desgaste das próteses e dos antagonistas por meio de microscopia eletrônica de varredura; perda óssea periimplantar utilizando radiografias periapicais em três períodos, imediatamente após a instalação das próteses, uma semana após e três meses depois, percepção estética e alteração de cor utilizando o método de escala visual analógica pelo paciente. As hipóteses deste estudo são resistência à fratura e lascamento será semelhante nos grupos avaliados, todos os grupos serão esticamente aceitáveis, o desgaste do antagonista e das próteses será semelhante entre os grupos e a manutenção periodontal e nível de perda óssea será semelhante para os grupos(AU)
The pure ceramic crowns have been gaining strength in dentistry since the aesthetic and mechanical requirements are increasingly evident. Since free metal dentures of the bilayer type, not infrequently, show sputtering of the ceramic cover as the main long-term failure, the use of monolithic prostheses was started. At the same time, the search for and use of osseointegratable implants to support partial rehabilitation is increasing, being the first option for oral rehabilitation of edentulous areas. Therefore, the purpose of this prospective, randomized, split-mouth clinical study is to assess clinical performance and predictability, characterizing the number and type of early complications and failures such as antagonist wear, bone loss, gingival inflammation, and mechanical failures that may occur in PPFs of three implant - supported elements with mixed retention in posterior region of mandible in monolithic zirconia, zirconia infrastructure with covering ceramics and metaloceramics, besides evaluating aesthetic perception and patient satisfaction with each one. Patients selected (n = 8) will undergo surgical procedures to install two implants in the posterior mandible, two on each side. After three to four months the healing will be installed and the molding will be performed to make the prosthesis following the randomization of both the patients and the side of the jaw. Wear of prostheses and antagonists will be assessed by scanning electron microscopy and profilometry; bone loss peri-implant using periapical radiographs in seven periods, immediately after the implant installation, 7 days after surgery, before the installation of the healers, at the installation of the prosthesis, 21 days after, six and twelve months later, aesthetic perception and color change using the method of visual analog scale by the patient and an intraoral spectophotometer. The hypotheses of this study are resistance to fracture and chipping will be similar in the evaluated groups, all groups will be ethically acceptable, the wear of the antagonist and the prostheses will be similar between groups and the periodontal maintenance and level of bone loss will be similar for the groups(AU)

PURPOSE: This study investigated the effect of fracture strength and fracture mode characteristics related to reduced interocclusal space on computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM). ZrO2 fixed partial denture (FPD) frameworks subjected to quasi-static loads. MATERIALS AND METHODS: First, two dental implants (4 × 10 mm) were positioned simulating a three-unit FPD (second premolar and second molar abutments). The implants were distributed into two groups: control group (n = 10), positioned at the same level; and the test group (n = 10), where the interocclusal space corresponding to the second molar was reduced by 3 mm in relation to the second premolar to simulate a clinical situation. After FPD wax-up (25-mm long; connector height = 5 mm; connector width = 3 mm, proximal and lingual collar reinforcement), casting was made in a Co-Cr alloy to serve as a prototype. Upon scanning, screw-retained CAD/CAM ZrO2 FPDs were fabricated for each group. Then, FPDs were subjected to quasi-static axial loading until fracture in the mid-occlusal pontic area using a universal testing machine at the crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min. Next, the samples were analyzed by scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) to describe the fracture characteristics. RESULTS: The mean fracture strength values for the control group (1,747.4 ± 122.3 N) and test group (1,817.7 ± 158.9 N) showed no significant difference (Student t test, P < .124). The SEM images of the fracture sites revealed two cleavage areas in the test group, providing representative sites with increased fracture energy storage in this group compared with the control group. CONCLUSION: Within the limitations of this study, the results showed that reduced interocclusal space and reduced length did not decrease the fracture strength of the ZrO2 FPD frameworks.

CONTEXT: Equisetum giganteum L. (Equisetaceae) is an endemic plant of Central and South America used in traditional medicine. Natural drugs have been frequently used in the treatment of a myriad of diseases, proving to be an alternative to synthetic chemicals, and have been intensively studied in the prevention of sicknesses, including oral diseases. OBJECTIVE: This study evaluated the in vitro antiadherent activity of E. giganteum extract against Candida albicans biofilms. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Crystal violet and colony-forming units assays were used to quantify the total biofilm biomass and biofilm living cells on a denture base acrylic resin pretreated with hydroethanolic extract of E. giganteum in different concentrations (50, 25, 16, 8, and 4 mg/mL), after 24 h of biofilm development. RESULTS: Equisetum giganteum affected biofilms by reduction of biomass and living cells per area of acrylic specimens. The results revealed reduction of 15-44% of the biofilm mass and reduction of numbers of colony-forming units (CFUs) present in biofilms (79%) compared to the untreated control (CTRL/PBS). At all concentrations, it demonstrated important antiadherent activity on Candida albicans biofilms, the main microbe in denture stomatitis. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: The present findings show that E. giganteum antimicrobial effects may qualify the extract as a promising natural alternative for topical treatment or prevention of denture stomatitis. The usage of drugs made of natural products shows advantages in relation to synthetic drugs on the market, such as lower cost, lower toxicity, and in relation to the occurrence of microbial resistance.

Este relato de caso demonstra uma combinação de estratégias de RTG para alívio do defeito residual na zona estética. Um paciente do sexo masculino havia sofrido um acidente traumático no dente 11 durante a infância, com tratamento endodôntico e reimplantação imediata. Dez anos depois, o desnível entre as margens gengivais era de 10 mm, e uma reabsorção radicular estava presente. Para tentar diminuir a recessão de tecido mole e o contorno ósseo deficiente, uma matriz colágena suína (MucoGraft) foi montada no sentido vertical substituindo a parede vestibular, e o alvéolo de extração foi preenchido com osso bovino inorgânico (Bio-Oss). A coroa dentária natural foi usada como pôntico no aparelho ortodôntico de contenção. Três meses depois, e após um exame por tomografia computadorizada feixe cônico para determinação dos níveis ósseos resultantes, o conjunto implante dentário (3,4 mm x 10 mm)/pilar (platformswitching) e osso bovino foi colocado no alvéolo cicatrizado, e a coroa natural foi trocada por uma coroa provisória cimentada. Seis meses depois, um enxerto gengival livre foi aplicado. Após o condicionamento do tecido mole, o desnivelamento gengival entre as margens reduziu-se para 2 mm. A restauração definitiva recebeu infraestrutura em zircônia CAD/CAM recoberta por porcelana feldspática. Mesmo que a estratégia combinada tenha se mostrado útil no alívio da situação clínica, estudos longitudinais com amostras maiores são necessários para comprovar sua eficácia.
This case report demonstrates a combination of RTG strategies to alleviate a residual defect in the esthetic zone. A male patient had suffered a traumatic accident at the tooth 11 during childhood, with endodontic treatment and immediate replantation. Ten years later, the unbalance between the gingival margins was 10 mm, and a root resorption was detected. In an attempt to reduce the soft tissue recession and poor bone contour, a porcine collagen matrix (MucoGraft) was mounted vertically replacing the labial wall, and the alveolar extraction socket fi lled with xenogeneic bovine bone (Bio-Oss). The natural dental crown was used as the pontic in the orthodontic device. Three months later and after a cone beam computerized tomography to determine the resulting bone levels, the dental implant (3.4 mm x 10 mm)/abutment (platform-switching) assembly and bovine bone were placed in the healed socket, and the natural crown was replaced by a cemented temporary crown. Six months later, a free gingival graft was applied. After soft tissue conditioning, the unbalance between gingival margins between was reduced to 2 mm. The final restoration received a CAD/CAM zirconia infrastructure veneered with feldspathic porcelain. Even that the combined strategy has proven useful in this clinical situation. Longitudinal studies with larger samples are needed to confi rm its effectiveness.
