RESUMO

ABSTRACT Objective: To analyze the relationship between malocclusion and bullying and its impact on the well-being and quality of life of students from low social development areas. Material and Methods: This cross-sectional study included 243 schoolchildren between 10 and 17 years. Malocclusion was analyzed using Dental Aesthetic Index. Bullying and self-perception of the impact of one's oral condition on quality of life and interpersonal relationships were assessed by questions from National Survey of Schoolchildren's Health and Child Perceptions Questionnaire 11-14 (CPQ11-14). Data were analyzed using the Spearman correlation coefficient and Mann-Whitney tests, considering groups: 10-11, 12-14 and 15-17 years. Results: No correlation was observed between malocclusion and bullying. However, in the 12-14 group, poor correlations were found between malocclusion and the CPQ11-14 (0.226) and between malocclusion and being shy/embarrassed due to oral aspects (0.298). Positive correlations were observed between bullying and the impact on the quality of life in the 10-11 (0.420) and 12-14 (0.425) groups. In the older group, a positive correlation (0.724) was observed between the concern about what others think of their oral health and the impact on their quality of life. Conclusion: There was no evidence of a relationship between malocclusion and bullying. However, the oral conditions negatively affected the interpersonal relationships and the student's quality of life.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT Objective: To compare the agreement of images in white light (WL), fluorescence (FL), and digital radiographs (DR), on the diagnosis and treatment decisions for occlusal caries lesions against a micro-CT gold standard. Material and Methods: Ten extracted third molars, with enamel and/or dentin caries (ICDAS 2-4), were included. Occlusal surface images were acquired with an intraoral camera (SoproLife®) in WL and FL modes. DR was obtained using an intraoral X-ray and a semi-direct digital system. A total of 780 images were needed, organized in a template, to be later examined by twenty-six dentists invited to compose the study. The Generalized Estimation Equations model was used to compare the proportions of the correct answers between the three methods and the gold standard. When significant, Bonferroni post-hoc test was used to identify differences (α=5%). Results: Most of the examiners were specialists (76.9%) with 14.5 years of experience. All diagnostic methods were similar and showed low agreement (DR 12.7%, WL 16.5%, and FL 16.5%) compared with gold standard caries diagnostic scores. Regarding treatment decisions, mean agreement for all diagnostic methods was higher (43.2%; p<0.001), and among all methods, WL (48.1%) and FL (51.2%) modes performed better than DR (30.4%, p<0.001). Conclusion: SoproLife® images could help clinicians to propose rational, minimally invasive treatments for occlusal caries lesions.

RESUMO

Introduction: Alagille syndrome (AGS) is an autosomal dominant disease with variable expressiveness that can affect the liver, heart, kidneys, blood vessels, eyes, face and skeleton. Objective: To describe a case of a pediatric patient with Alagille syndrome. Case report: The family history was negative for even the mildest manifestations of AGS. Clinically, the patient had a triangular face, hypertelorism, short philtrum and flat midface. Intraoral examination revealed the absence of the permanent upper lateral incisors, enamel hypoplasia and agreenish color in some teeth, gingival hyperplasia, retention of two primary lower incisors, presence of a supernumerary tooth, and a pediculated nodule of soft tissue on the lingual aspect of the left permanent mandibular first molar. Results: The dental treatment required the extraction of the retained primary teeth and the supernumerary tooth, excisional biopsy and histopathological examination of the lesion were performed and also application of topical fluoride. Also dietary and oral hygiene instructions were given. Conclusion: Currently, the patient makes frequent follow-up visits to monitor the dental development.

RESUMO

Objective: Evaluate the impact of oral health status on the quality of life and personal satisfaction among adolescents from urban and rural areas, in Nova Friburgo, Brazil. Methods: Adolescents between 11 and 14 years, enrolled in the schools participating in the Health in School Program (HSP) of rural and urban of this city (n = 509), received the consent form for the participation in this study, along with the economic questionnaire to be handed to the responsible. Adolescent´s oral health status was evaluated clinically, through the Decayed, Missing and Filled Teeth (DMFT); pulpal involvement, ulceration, fistula and abscess criteria (PUFA); and Dental Treatment Needs Index (DTNI). The quality of life was measured through the Child Perception Questionnaire (CPQ11-14), while personal satisfaction´s evaluation, through the Subjective Happiness Scale (SHS), both as interview. Statistical tests were performed (Chi-Square; Fisher's exact; Mann-Whitney) with level of significance of 5%. Results: The final sample comprised 161 adolescents. The impact of oral health status on the quality of life of adolescents from both areas was not significantly different, although the aggravation of the oral condition showed a tendency to worse the quality of life. Similarly, there was no relation of the oral status with personal satisfaction, without differences between the groups. It was observed that rural adolescents presented better quality of life (p<0.010), while the urban ones had higher degree of personal satisfaction (p<0.001). Conclusion: Oral health status had a negative impact on the quality of life, but had no relation to personal satisfaction, regardless of the demographic area.


Objetivo: Avaliar o impacto do estado de saúde bucal na qualidade de vida e na satisfação pessoal de adolescentes das áreas urbana e rural de Nova Friburgo, Brasil. Métodos: Adolescentes entre 11 e 14 anos, matriculados nas escolas participantes do Programa Saúde na Escola (PSE) da zona rural e urbana desta cidade (n = 509), receberam o Termo de Consentimento Livre e Esclarecido para a participação neste estudo,juntamente ao questionário econômico a ser entregue para o responsável. O estado de saúde bucal do adolescente foi avaliado clinicamente, por meio dos índices Cariados, Perdidos e Obturados (CPOD); critérios de envolvimento pulpar, ulceração, fístula e abscesso (PUFA); e Índice de Necessidades de Tratamento Odontológico (INTO). A qualidade de vida foi mensurada por meio do Child Perception Questionnaire (CPQ11- 14), enquanto a avaliação da satisfação pessoal, por meio da Subjective Happiness Scale (SHS), ambos na forma de entrevista. Foram realizados testes estatísticos (Qui-Quadrado; Exato de Fisher; Mann-Whitney) com nível de significância de 5%. Resultados: A amostra final foi de 161 adolescentes. O impacto do estado de saúde bucal na qualidade de vida dos adolescentes de ambas as áreas não foi significativamente diferente, embora o agravamento da condição bucal tenha apresentado tendência a piorar a qualidade de vida. Da mesma forma, não houve relação da condição oral com a satisfação pessoal, sem diferenças entre os grupos. Observou-se que os adolescentes rurais apresentaram melhor qualidade de vida (p<0,010), enquanto os urbanos apresentaram maior grau de satisfação pessoal (p<0,001). Conclusão: O estado de saúde bucal teve impacto negativo na qualidade de vida, mas não teve relação com a satisfação pessoal, independente da área demográfica.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Several factors can influence the oral health. AIM: To explore the clinical factors, individual characteristics, and environmental factors (religious-spiritual coping-RSC, sense of coherence [SOC], and socio-economic status) related to oral status and impact on oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) of children/adolescents (C/A). DESIGN: This study evaluated C/A up to 15 years old and their caregivers. Number of decayed (NDT) and missing teeth (NMT); history of dental trauma; caregiver's RSC and SOC, socio-economic factors, and OHRQoL were evaluated. Theoretical model exploring the direct and indirect effects was tested using a structural equation analysis. RESULTS: For younger group (0-6 years), having more NDT or more NMT had a greater impact on the OHRQoL (ß = 0.382, ß = 0.203, respectively). In the oldest group (7-15 years), a higher SOC had an inverse relationship with the impact on the family OHRQoL (ß=-0.201). The higher the age of the C/A, the lower the NDT (ß=-0.235), and the higher the family income the lower, the need for social benefit (ß = 0.275). Indirect relationships were observed between schooling with social benefit and OHRQoL in younger group. The family income indirectly influenced the OHRQoL in oldest group. CONCLUSIONS: Quality of life is affected directly and indirectly by environmental characteristics, oral status, and the age of patients.

RESUMO

The hereditary condition known as ectodermal dysplasia (ED) is characterized by the absence of or a defect in 2 or more ectodermally derived structures such as skin, nails, hair, sweat glands, or teeth. Patients with this disorder usually present with reduced salivary gland function and absence of some or all teeth, which compromises orofacial function and development. In addition, children with ED usually experience difficulty in social interactions because of their appearance. This article reviews previously published case reports pertaining to ED and describes oral rehabilitation with removable partial dentures (RPDs) in a 5-year-old girl diagnosed with X-linked hypohidrotic ED, which presented as hypodontia. An orthodontic expander screw was inserted in the maxillary prosthesis to correct the patient's crossbite, and periodic recall examinations were scheduled to monitor the effects of the patient's growth on occlusion and fit of the prosthesis. The child was monitored for 12 months, during which she exhibited significant improvement in physiologic function, appearance, and social behavior. Because negative esthetic, functional, and psychological consequences are associated with this condition, dentists must be knowledgeable about its common oral manifestations.

RESUMO

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the oral health status and to analyze the self- erception of the impact of oral health statuson the interpersonal relationship of students from a local school in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Methods: A non-probabilistic sample was used, consisting of 260 children and adolescents aged 8 to 15 years. Oral health status was evaluated by clinical examination according to the World Health Organization criteria. The perception of the students of their oral health status was assessed by interview using a questionnaire developed from PeNSE (Brazilian National School Health survey) and CPQ 11-14 (Child Perception Questionnaire). Chi- quare and Fisher's exact test were used, with level of significance of 5% (p< 0.05). Results: A DMFT index equal to 0 was observed in 51.5% of the participants. The questionnaire revealed that most students were happy about their own smile (88.1%). However, 35.8% had already avoided smiling and 18.5% had refrained from some daily activities because of the appearance of their teeth. Conclusion: Although half of the students were free of dental caries and most were satisfied with their smile, a sizable number felt upset and embarrassed about their teeth, which may interfere in the relationship with their peers.


Objetivo: O objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar a condição de saúde bucal e analisar a autopercepção do impacto da saúde bucal no relacionamento interpessoal de escolares de uma instituição da rede pública municipal do Rio de Janeiro, Brasil. Método: A amostra foi do tipo não probabilística, sendo composta por 260 crianças e adolescentes, de 8 a 15 anos. A condição bucal foi verificada através de exame clínico de acordo com os critérios da Organização Mundial da Saúde. A percepção dos escolares em relação a própria condição bucal foi avaliada através de entrevista, cujo instrumento foi desenvolvido a partir da Pesquisa Nacional de Saúde do Escolar, 2012 e do Child Perception Questionnaire ( CPQ). 11-14 Os testes qui-quadrado e Exato de Fisher foram utilizados com nível designificância de 5% (p<0,05). Resultados: 51,5% da amostra apresentou CPOD zero. A análise do questionário mostrou que a maioria está feliz com o próprio sorriso (88,1%). Porém, 35,8% relatou já ter evitado sorrir e 18,5% já deixou de realizar alguma atividade por causa dos dentes. Conclusão: Embora a metade dos escolares se apresente livre de cárie e a maioria goste dopróprio sorriso, uma parcela considerável demonstra sentimentos como chateação e vergonha, podendo interferir no relacionamento com seus pares.

RESUMO

The aim of this study was to check the in vitro accuracy of ICDAS criteria on digital images compared to visual examination for the diagnosis of occlusal caries against a micro-CT gold standard. ICDAS was scored in 40 extracted permanent molars by means of visual inspection and stereomicroscopic images. Visual examinations were performed in duplicate and at a one-week interval by three different calibrated examiners. The analysis of digital images by ICDAS criteria was also performed in duplicate, 1 month after visual examinations. The detection methods were compared by means of sensitivity, specificity, area under the curve, predictive positive and negative values, and accuracy for two different thresholds (1- sound vs. carious teeth; 2- tooth requiring operative vs. non-operative treatment). Sensitivity and accuracy values for threshold 1 in the visual ICDAS and image-based ICDAS methods were high for sensitivity (0.93 and 0.97) and for accuracy (0.83 and 0.85), but low for specificity (0.55 for both methods). Specificity values for threshold 2 were 0.77 and 0.82, while sensitivity was 0.33 and 0.28 for each method. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient was 0.53 and 0.43 (p<0.05) for visual and image-based ICDAS compared to the gold standard scores. Both visual and image-based ICDAS scores were similar to each other in terms of diagnostic accuracy when compared to the micro-CT gold standard. Low specificity for the presence of caries and sensitivity for the detection of caries requiring operative treatment were found.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Titanium tetrafluoride (TiF4) is a topical agent used in the control of dental caries; however, it is highly acidic. To minimize this effect, cyclodextrins (CDs) are used. This study evaluated the in vitro potential of TiF4 and ß-CD on remineralization. METHODS: Forty bovine enamel blocks were selected by microhardness and randomly assigned to four groups (n = 10 per group): control (distilled and deionized water), 1% ß-CD solution, 1% TiF4 solution, and TiF4: ß-CD solution. The blocks were subjected to a pH cycling regimen for 8 days. After that, samples were evaluated by cross-sectional microhardness (CSMH), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS). Data were assessed for normality and analyzed using ANOVA and Tukey's tests (α = 0.05). RESULTS: Regarding CSMH, TiF4: ß-CD was statistically superior to the control (P = 0.033), ß-CD (P = 0.022), and TiF4 (P = 0.006). SEM photomicrography revealed the titanium dioxide coating on slabs treated with TiF4 and TiF4: ß-CD. EDS assessment demonstrated the presence of titanium on the surface of slabs treated with TiF4 and TiF4: ß-CD. CONCLUSION: The solution containing the inclusion nanocomplex formed of TiF4 and ß-CD was able to reharden the enamel subsurface.

RESUMO

Objetivo: Objetivou-se avaliar o conhecimento dos pais/responsáveis (P/R) de crianças atendidas na Clínica de Bebês da Faculdade de Odontologia da UFRJ, a respeito da cárie precoce na infância (CPI). Método: Um questionário relacionado à CPI foi aplicado na sala de espera, aos P/R (n=150) de pacientes entre 0 e 5 anos de idade com diagnóstico de presença ou ausência de lesões de cárie. Os dados foram analisados descritivamente e o teste χ2 foi utilizado para associação entre o conhecimento sobre CPI e variáveis relacionadas à: higiene bucal, grau de parentesco dos P/R, amamentação e sentimento de culpa dos P/R. O Coeficiente alfa de Cronbach (α) demonstrou consistência interna satisfatória do instrumento (α=0,878). Resultados: A média de idade dos P/R foi de 34,11±9,26 anos e das crianças, 3,63±1,26 anos. A maioria dos entrevistados (68,7%) foi representada por mães. Dentre os P/R, 88,7% apresentam lesões de cárie e 74% das crianças são acometidas. A maioria das crianças (72,0%) não é amamentada, assim não houve associação entre o tipo de aleitamento e o relato de cárie (p=0,125). A frequência da escovação (65,8% escovam 3 ou mais vezes ao dia) também não apresentou associação com a doença (p=0,352). Entre os participantes, 47,2% afirmaram realizar a escovação da criança e 36,7% a supervisionam. Somente 30,0% relataram ter conhecimento sobre cárie e 36,7% afirmaram que a doença é causada por escovação deficiente e dieta rica em açúcar. Dos entrevistados, 96,0% afirmaram saber que a cárie traz prejuízo à saúde. Destes, 22,0% indicam que a principal alteração é o prejuízo estético. A maioria dos responsáveis (70,0%) declarou sentir culpa pela cárie de seu filho (p=0,009). Conclusão: Conclui-se que novas estratégias que abordem a educação em saúde devam ser elaboradas, visando o maior esclarecimento aos pais/responsáveis sobre CPI, o que consequentemente auxiliará na prevenção da doença.(AU)

RESUMO

Orofacial trauma can occur during general anesthesia. Protective measures should be taken to prevent or minimize such injuries. We evaluated perceptions regarding the occurrence and prevention of orofacial injuries during general anesthesia among 74 professionals who perform this procedure. All participants were from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and information was collected in interviews, using a semi-structured questionnaire administered during an academic conference. The data were tabulated and analyzed, frequencies were calculated, and the chi-square test (P < 0.05) was used to assess relationships between variables of interest. Most participants (77.0%) had witnessed orofacial trauma during general anesthesia, and the most frequent type of dental injury was fracture (54.4%). Although most participants (64.9%) considered mouthguard use to be important during such procedures, only three reported using mouthguards to protect against patient injury. The likelihood of a dentist referral after injury was significantly associated with participant age (P = 0.03), length of time since graduation (P = 0.02), and area of specialization (P ≤ 0.01). Although most participants had witnessed orofacial injuries, mouthguards were not routinely used for injury prevention.

RESUMO

AIMS: The aim was to assess the prevalence of oral lesions in HIV-infected children undergoing highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HAART), and the association between the duration of HAART usage and oral lesions. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Totally, 111 medical and dental records of HIV-infected children, aged from 2 to 16 years old were reviewed for medical data, presence of oral lesions, and caries prevalence. According to the type of medication, the children were grouped as follows: 51 were under HAART (G1), 46 were using anti-retroviral medication (G2), and 14 were using no medication (G3). RESULTS: The majority of the HIV children had AIDS (65.8%), of which 86.3% were in G1, 63% in G2, and 0% in G3. The mean length of therapy was 34.4 months, with no difference between groups (Kruskal-Wallis; P = 0.917). The prevalence of the oral lesions was 23.4%, namely, G1 was 27.5%, G2 was 21.7%, and G3 was 14.3% (P > 0.05). Gingivitis was the most common oral manifestation (15.3%) seen in the three groups, followed by gingival linear erythema and pseudomembranous candidiasis in G1 and G2. The mean values regarding deft and DMFT indexes were, respectively, 3.2 and 1.9 (G1), 2.8 and 1.6 (G2), and 3.8 and 3.0 (G3). For the patients without AIDS (n = 38), oral manifestations were seen in 29.4% of G2 compared to G1, with 0% (Chi-square; P > 0.05). In terms of therapy duration, 47.65% of the patients who had been under HAART for 18 months or less had oral manifestations, compared to 13.3% of those who had been treated for a longer time (Chi-square; P = 0.007). CONCLUSIONS: Although the prevalence of oral lesions was similar between the groups, it was less in patients without AIDS and those under HAART. The duration of HAART usage had a significant influence on the prevalence of these lesions.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: The aim was to evaluate the intra- and inter-examiner reliability of two methods, namely, digital caliper [DC] and computerized image analysis software (Image Tool [IT] version 4.1) for measuring the area of an active enamel demineralization lesion. The effect on that measurement of a window that delimits the lesion was also assessed. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirty-eight circular artificial enamel demineralization lesions (r = 2 mm) were produced on bovine teeth in vitro, which were then measured three times by three examiners, with and without the presence of a window delimiting the area to be measured. The data were analyzed by the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) with 95% confidence interval (CI) and by the Altman and Bland analysis. RESULTS: The intra-examiner correlation using the IT method showed excellent reproducibility (mean ICC values 0.922-0.970 with the delimiting window and 0.915-0.990 without the window). However, the intra-examiner correlation using the DC method showed comparatively less reproducibility in the measurements (mean ICC values 0.458-0.648 with the delimiting window and 0.378-0.665 without the window). The inter-examiner correlations showed very good reproducibility of the measurements regardless of the presence or absence of the window for both the DC method (0.811-0.846) and IT method (0.953-0.994). However, the latter method showed less variability within the measurements. CONCLUSION: However, statistically no significant difference was found between both methodologies. Nevertheless, computerized image analysis with the Image Tool software demonstrated higher intra- and inter-examiner reliability than the digital caliper method, in estimating the area of the enamel demineralization lesion, regardless of the delimiting window.

RESUMO

Titanium tetrafluoride (TiF(4)) is an effective but instable caries preventive agent. As the stability problems could be minimized through the use of drug carriers this study aimed to prepare and characterize a new TiF(4) nanoinclusion complex and to evaluate its potential in inhibiting enamel demineralization under pH cycling conditions. The TiF(4) nanosystems were prepared using ß-cyclodextrin (ßCD) and sodium montmorillonite (MMTNa). Bovine enamel blocks (n=48) with known surface microhardness (SMH), were randomly assigned to 4 groups (n=12) and submitted to one of the following treatments: distilled deionized water (as negative control) and solutions containing 1% ßCD, 1% TiF(4) and TiF(4):ßCD. The solutions were blinded applied once on the blocks with a microbrush(®) on the surface for 1min before pH-cycling. After that, samples were reavaluated by SMH, %SMH loss, cross-sectional microhardness (CSMH), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometry (EDX). The inclusion complex of TiF(4):ßCD offered better protection against demineralization in the subsurface. The SEM analysis showed that TiF(4) and TiF(4):ßCD samples presented the most intact enamel than the control. The EDX analysis identified titanium in TiF(4) and TiF(4):ßCD groups. TiF(4):ßCD has higher potential on inhibiting demineralization in the inner enamel. TiF(4):ßCD is a new alternative to TiF(4) stabilization in order to reduce enamel subsurface demineralization.

RESUMO

The aim of this preliminary, split-mouth clinical trial was to evaluate how incipient carious lesions on permanent tooth enamel were affected by 4% titanium tetrafluoride (TiF4) when used with a sodium monofluorophosphate (MFP) dentifrice. Eight children were selected for this study, providing 18 pairs of permanent anterior teeth with incipient carious lesions. TiF4 was applied once to half of the sample teeth, while all teeth were brushed with the MFP dentifrice for four weeks. Clinical (texture, size, and brightness) and illustrative (photos and scanning electronic microscope replica) evaluations were performed. Descriptive-statistical analysis of the data was performed by analyzing pairs of teeth, using statistical software. Remineralization occurred in 13 of the 18 pairs of teeth that received both forms of treatment; seven pairs were partially remineralized while six pairs showed total remineralization (McNemar test: p = 0.375). Teeth treated with both TiF4 and MFP showed a 74.5% reduction in lesion size, compared to a 67% reduction in teeth treated with the MFP dentifrice only. The results indicate that a single application of TiF4 in conjunction with toothbrushing with a fluoride-containing dentifrice was no more effective than the use of dentifrice alone for treating incipient carious lesions.

RESUMO

O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a percepção de responsáveis sobre os fatores preditores de medo odontológico infantil e aceitação de uma técnica alternativa (abrasão ultrassônica) para a remoção de cárie. Cento e sessenta e dois responsáveis por crianças atendidas em uma instituição pública responderam a um questionário semiestruturado. A média de idade das crianças foi de 9 anos, sendo 52,5% meninos. Resultados mostraram que, gostavam de ir ao dentista 73,5% e 34% apresentavam-se nervosas/ansiosas antes de serem atendidas. A maioria dos responsáveis julgou importante a realização de estudos para descoberta de novos métodos para substituição do motor (p> 0,05) e autorizariam a utilização da abrasão ultrassônica (p > 0,05). Conclui-se que, aproximadamente, metade das crianças tinha medo ou ficavam ansiosas durante o atendimento, e que os responsáveis são receptivos à utilização de técnicas alternativas de remoção de cárie.

RESUMO

A erosão ácida é definida pela perda localizada, crônica e patológica de tecido mineral, o qual é removido quimicamente da superfície dental por meio de ácido ou substâncias quelantes, sem o envolvimento bacteriano. Nos últimos anos tem sido observado um aumento na prevalência de lesões decorrentes da erosão ácida em crianças e adolescentes. Assim, o objetivo deste trabalho é apresentar uma revisão da literatura sobre a erosão ácida em Odontopediatria, destacando suas principais características, agentes etiológicos, bem como alternativas para sua prevenção e tratamento.
