RESUMO
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the pharyngeal airway space (PAS) changes in class III patients receiving bimaxillary orthognathic surgery and correlate the PAS volume and minimum axial section changes with the magnitude of the surgical movement. This research involved a retrospective sample composed of 38 patients with class III skeletal occlusions. Three-dimensional measurements of the PAS volume and minimum axial section were conducted. Cephalometric points were used to verify the extent of jaw-hyoid bone movement. No significant differences were found between pre and postoperative total PAS volume (P = 0.280), nasopharyngeal volume (P = 0.545), oropharyngeal volume (P = 0.297), and minimum axial section (P = 0.568). Anterior movement of point A and posterior nasal spine were significantly associated with an increase in total PAS volume, oropharyngeal volume, and minimum axial section (P < 0.05). However, the posterior movement of menton was significantly associated with a decrease in total PAS volume, oropharyngeal volume, and minimum axial section (P < 0.05). The results of the present study indicated that PAS is not negatively affected by bimaxillary surgery in class III patients. However, the planning of class III patients who are prone to the development of airway problems should be done carefully.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE:: to investigate the predictive factors of failure in bone grafts for alveolar ridge augmentation and implant surgery. METHODS:: we reviewed the charts of 166 patients operated between 1995 and 2014. A total of 248 grafting procedures were performed. We submitted the data to the binomial test at 5% significance. RESULTS:: grafts to gain width of the alveolar ridge (65.32%) were more frequent than sinus lifting (p<0.0001) and the number of grafts to the posterior maxilla (48.8%) was greater than in other regions (p<0.01); 6.04% of the grafts were lost. The losses in anterior (p<0.0309) and posterior (p<0.0132) maxilla were higher than in the mandible. There were 269 ââimplants installed in the grafted areas, of which only 4.83% were lost. The number of implants lost (4.51%) in areas of onlay grafts was not statistically higher than those placed after sinus lifting (2.63%, p<0.2424). Losses were greater in the anterior (53.85%) and posterior (38.46%) maxilla than in the mandible (p<0.031). Regarding patients' age, 76.92% of the lost grafts (p<0.006) and 80% of the lost implants (p<0.001) were installed in patients over 40 years. CONCLUSION:: failure rate was higher both for grafts and dental implants in the maxilla and in patients over 40 years of age. OBJETIVO:: investigar os fatores preditivos de falhas em enxertos ósseos para aumento do rebordo alveolar e cirurgia de implantes. MÉTODOS:: os prontuários de 166 pacientes, operados entre 1995 e 2014, foram revistos. Um total de 248 enxertos foi realizado. Os dados foram submetidos ao teste binomial a 5% de significância. RESULTADOS:: os enxertos para ganho em espessura do rebordo alveolar (65,32%) foram mais frequentes do que levantamentos de seio maxilar (p<0,0001) e o número de enxertos para a região posterior da maxila (48,8%) foi maior do que em outras regiões (p<0,01). Foram perdidos 6,04% dos enxertos. As perdas em maxila anterior (p<0,0132) e posterior (p<0,0309) foram maiores do que na mandíbula. Foram instalados 269 implantes nas áreas enxertadas e apenas 4,83% perdidos. O número de implantes perdidos (4,51%) em áreas de enxertos em bloco não foi estatisticamente maior do que na área de seios maxilares enxertados (2,63%) (p<0,2424). As perdas foram maiores na região anterior (53,85%) e posterior (38,46%) da maxila em relação a mandíbula (p<0,031) e, 76,92% dos enxertos (p<0,006) e 80% dos implantes perdidos (p<0,001), foram instalados em pacientes com mais de 40 anos de idade. CONCLUSÃO:: maior taxa de falhas foi observada para enxertos e implantes dentários realizados em maxila e em pacientes com mais de 40 anos de idade.

Osteoblastomas are benign bone tumors, which are unusual in the craniofacial skeleton, being most often observed in the axial skeleton and long bones. The most common site in the maxillofacial region is the mandible and the involvement of the maxilla and paranasal sinuses is extremely rare. Although it is a benign lesion, the aggressive variant raises concerns due to its huge local destructive potential and tendency to relapse. In this clinical case, an aggressive osteoblastoma is described in a 7-year-old patient. The lesion was large and fully involved the left maxilla, including the maxillary sinus and the nasal cavity. Recurrent volume increase was observed 2 months following enucleation of the lesion and en bloc resection of the maxillary segment was performed. Histological and immunohistochemical evaluation associated with clinical and imaging findings allowed to define the tumor as an aggressive variant of osteoblastoma and not osteosarcoma, despite the aggressive behavior. The patient recovered well and no relapses were observed after 12 months following maxillary resection.

ABSTRACT Objective: This study aims to investigate the demographics, patient health status, position of the teeth, pericoronitis incidence, surgical complications, use of antibiotics to third molar removal and correlate those findings. Methods: Based on panoramic radiographs, the teeth were classified as proposed by Pell and Gregory and Winter. The binomial test for proportions with a significance level of 5% was applied. Results: Records of 337 patients submitted 1178 third molar extractions in the period from 1993 to 2011 were reviewed. Most upper teeth were vertically positioned, (84.2%) (p<0.0001), class I (49.55%) (p<0.0001), position C (58.88%) (p<0.0001) and most inferiors were mesioangulated (42.03%) (p<0.0122), class II (60.22%) (p<0.0001), position A (48.15%) (p<0.0001). Complications occurred in 2.88% of the procedures (p<0.0006), mainly in women (69.7%) (p<0.0014) and more frequently in patients who did not receive antibiotics (71.43%) (p<0.0027). Complications were more frequent after extraction of inferior third molars (75.75%) (p<0.0001). The most common complication was alveolitis (52.51%) (p<0.0006). Conclusion: In this study, the complication rates were low. They were more frequent in women who did not receive antibiotics. The most common complication was alveolitis.

As complicações ocorreram em apenas 2,88% das cirurgias, foram mais comuns em mulheres (69,7%) (p<0,0014) e em pacientes que não fizeram uso de antibióticos (71,43%) (p<0,0027). A maioria das complicações ocorreu após extrações de dentes inferiores (75,75%) (p<0,0001). A complicação mais comum foi a alveolite (52.51%) (p<0.0006). Conclusão: Neste estudo, as complicações não foram frequentes e acometeram mais mulheres e pacientes que não fizeram uso de antibióticos, sendo a alveolite a mais comumente observada.
RESUMO
Scientific development and increasing technological progress in the field ofdentistry have allowed the use of many resources in theoral rehabilitationplanning. In complex cases, in order to achieve projected final results,many procedures should be undertakenpriorto implant surgery. Prosthetic rehabilitation planningand bone graft procedures canbetter restorethe functional, aesthetic, social and emotional needs of the patient. This clinical case report shows the oral conditions of a woman who underwent several surgical proceduresfor maxillary reconstruction with autogenous bone grafts from the iliac crest. In this case, a bone volume guide was made to evaluate the bone volume requirement for correct labial support for metalloceramic fixed prosthesis. After graft integration, dental implantsurgery was performed. After the osseointegration period, the prostheses was fabricated and installed on the implants, thus concluding the oral rehabilitation. In conclusion, the bone guide was a fundamental tool for final aesthetic outcome predictability.
RESUMO
Introduction: macroglossia is a condition which influences the size and shape of the teeth employed due to the forces on teeth. Objective: To establish bases for the indication of partial glossectomy associated with orthodontic treatment and surgical dento-facial deformity in patients without tumors and Down syndrome as a cause of macroglossia. Case reports: Three patients underwent orthognathic surgery associated with partial glossectomy under general anesthesia. All patients had macroglossia relative and underwent clinical assessment taking into account the respiratory function, swallowing and speech deficits and radiological evaluation. The technique used consist of segmental resection along the median raphe of the tongue and suture by planes. We used rigid skeletal fixation with titanium plates and screws so that patients could stay without intermaxillary block in the immediate postoperative period. Were followed over five years. The symptoms regressed completely and all skeletal segments remained stable. Discussion: The decision to refer the patient to partial glossectomy should be based on the volume of the language, mobility, position, function, symptoms, speech intelligibility, skeletal anterior open bite, interference in orthodontic treatment, drooling, swallowing and tongue trauma applicant...
