Avaliação da ocorrência de doenças periodontais e gengivais entre os pacientes atendidos em uma clínica escola de odontologia de um centro universitário do nordeste brasileiro / Evaluation of the occurrence of periodontal and gingival diseases among patients attended at a dental school clinic of a university center in the Northeast of Braz

A doença periodontal é um grupo de doenças de natureza inflamatória/infecciosa, considerada um problema de saúde pública, devido à alta prevalência. O objetivo do presente estudo foi determinar a ocorrência das doenças gengivais e periodontais entre os pacientes atendidos em um Centro Universitário do Nordeste Brasileiro, identificando quais doenças periodontais são as mais prevalentes e observando os possíveis fatores de risco relatados nas anamneses. A pesquisa foi realizada no Centro Universitário Cesmac de Maceió-AL, na qual foram incluídos prontuários de pacientes atendidos nessa mesma clínica escola, de ambos os sexos, na faixa etária de 11 a 85 anos, no período de 2010 a 2016. Os dados coletados foram tabulados em um banco de dados feito no Microsoft Excel (Microsoft Corporation, USA), onde registrou-se o número do paciente, gênero (biológico); idade; etnia; data do exame periodontal; diagnóstico periodontal; prognóstico periodontal; presença ou ausência de doença sistêmica relatada pelo paciente através da anamnese presente em seu prontuário. A análise dos dados obtidos foi realizada através dos testes de Qui-quadrado, de Mann-Whitney, de Kruskal-wallis e Dunn. E os softwares utilizados foram o BioEstat 5.0 e o GraphPad Prism 7.0. De acordo com os resultados obtidos nesta pesquisa observa-se a alta ocorrência de doenças gengivais e periodontais. Devido a metodologia utilizada não houve dados suficientes que comprovassem a relação da doença com a condição sistêmica (AU)

Profilaxia antibiótica para instalação de implantes dentários: avaliação do conhecimento dos implantodontistas de um estado do nordeste brasileiro / Knowledge regarding antibotic prophylaxis for dental implants: a survey with professionals from a Brazilian state

Objetivo: avaliar o conhecimento de implantodontistas sobre profilaxia antibiótica para a prevenção de infecções após a cirurgia para instalação de implantes dentários e sua relação com o surgimento de resistência microbiana. Material e métodos: neste estudo transversal, 33 profissionais devidamente registrados no Conselho Regional de Odontologia e atuantes no Estado, os quais responderam a um questionário. Resultados: a maioria dos entrevistados prescreveu antibacterianos em todos os casos, independentemente do estado geral de saúde do paciente, sendo que alguns profissionais ainda insistem em prorrogar a administração no período pós-operatório. Quando questionados sobre essa conduta, afirmaram que prescrevem de forma racional e baseada em evidências. Conclusão: é indispensável a constante atualização dos implantodontistas, prevenindo uma seleção de bactérias resistentes e exposição dos pacientes a efeitos adversos.

Objectives: to evaluate the knowledge regarding antibiotic use to prevent dental infections after implant placement and its relationship with microbial resistance. Material and methods: in the cross-sectional study, 33 practitioners registered in the Regional Council received a survey with questions on this subject. Results: most professionals indicated antibiotics in all cases, regardless of the patient general health condition, being that the medicamentous threrapy was extended after the postoperative period. Interestingly, some stated that this is made on rational basis and evidence-supported manner. Conclusion: it is fundamental to update professionals regarding the use of these drugs since patients can have bacterial resistance and adverse effects.

Local anaesthetics combined with vasoconstrictors in patients with cardiovascular disease undergoing dental procedures: systematic review and meta-analysis protocol.

INTRODUCTION: The use of vasoconstrictors combined with local anaesthetics (LAs) in dentistry for patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) is still controversial in the scientific literature. It raises concerns regarding the possibility of transient episodes, triggering negative cardiovascular outcomes. METHOD/DESIGN: Trials eligible for our systematic review will enrol patients with CVD who have undergone dental treatments carried out with the use of LAs by comparing two arms: LAs with vasoconstrictors and LAs without vasoconstrictors. The research will be conducted in the electronic databases, namely Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), MEDLINE, Embase, Healthstar (via Ovid), Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature and Web of Science, from their inception to December 2017, without any restrictions in terms of language and status of publication. A team of reviewers will independently assess titles, abstracts and complete text to determine eligibility. For eligible studies, the same reviewers will perform data extraction and evaluate the risk of bias in the selected articles. The selected outcomes comprise death, mortality by a specific cause, stroke, acute myocardial infarction, hospitalisation, pain, bleeding, arrhythmias, ischaemic episodes, anxiety, adverse effects, changes in blood pressure, changes in heart rate, anxiety and results obtained via oximetry. Whenever possible, we will conduct a meta-analysis to establish the effects of LAs with and without vasoconstrictors in the patients with CVD, and the overall quality of evidence for each outcome will be determined using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation classification system. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethics committee approval was not necessary because this is a protocol of systematic review. This systematic review will be submitted for presentation at conferences and for publication in a peer-reviewed journal. Our review will assess the risks of cardiovascular events when using LAs with and without vasoconstrictors in patients with CVD, focusing on important clinical outcomes.

Evaluation of two amoxicillin protocols for antibiotic prophylaxis in implant placement surgeries / Avaliação de dois protocolos de amoxicilina para profilaxia antibiótica em cirurgias de instalação de implantes

ABSTRACT Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of two amoxicillin protocols for antibiotic prophylaxis in implant placement surgeries. Methods A clinical study was performed with 66 volunteers of both genders (mean 51,9 ± 2,5 years) that met the inclusion criteria and were randomly assigned into 2 groups: Group 1 (n=35) - oral administration of amoxicillin (2g) 1 hour before the surgical procedure and Group 2 (n=31) oral administration of amoxicillin (2g) 1 hour before the surgical procedure and 500mg every 8 hours during 7 days after the surgeries. The following clinical parameters were evaluated: adverse reactions, pain and implants failure. The pain was evaluated in the surgery day (before, immediately after and at night), 24h, 48h, 72h and one week after the surgery and other clinical parameters were evaluated in daily appointments until the third postoperative day, 7 days and three months after the surgeries. Data were analyzed and statistical significance was 5%. Results Adverse reactions (headache, diarrhea, stomachache and nauseas) and implant failure occurred only in G2 (4 volunteers and 3 implants, respectively). Regarding pain, higher values for G2 on "at the night (p=0.0043), 24h (p=0.0013), 48h (p=0.0187) e 72h (p=0.0445) were observed. Conclusion The present study showed that a single dose of amoxicillin was effective in antibiotic prophylaxis in implant placement surgeries, suggesting that the use of amoxicillin in the postoperative period did not bring additional benefit.

RESUMO Objetivo Avaliar a eficácia de dois protocolos de amoxicilina em cirurgias para instalação de implantes. Métodos Foi realizado um estudo clinico com 66 voluntários de ambos os gêneros (idade média 51,9±2,5 anos) que atenderam aos critérios de inclusão e que foram distribuídos por sorteio em 2 grupos: Grupo 1 (n=35) - amoxicilina (2g) por via oral 1h antes da cirurgia e Grupo 2 (n=31) - amoxicilina (2g) por via oral 1h antes da cirurgia e 500mg a cada 8 horas durante 7 dias. Os parâmetros avaliados no pós-operatório foram ocorrência de reações adversas, dor e perda de implantes. A dor foi avaliada no dia da cirurgia (antes, imediatamente após e à noite), 24h, 48h, 72h e 1 semana após as cirurgias, e os demais parâmetros foram avaliados em consultas diárias até o terceiro dia pós-cirúrgico, 7 dias e 3 meses após as cirurgias. Os resultados foram submetidos à análise estatística com nível de significância de 5%. Resultados Reações adversas (cefaleia, diarréia, dor estomacal e náusea) e perda de implantes ocorreram apenas em G2 (4 voluntários e 3 implantes, respectivamente), e em relação à dor foram observados valores maiores para G2 nos tempos "à noite (p=0,0043), 24h (p=0,0013), 48h (p=0,0187) e 72h (p=0,0445). Conclusão Os dados sugerem que a dose única de amoxicilina (2g) foi eficaz na profilaxia antibiótica para cirurgias de implantes, e que a amoxicilina no período pós-operatório não proporcionou benefício adicional.
