Cirurgia de aproveitamento de dente incluso associada a odontoma: relato de caso / Surgery to use an impacted tooth associated with odontoma: case report / Cirugía para uso de diente incluido asociado a odontoma: reporte de caso

Introdução: Odontoma é o tipo mais comum de tumor odontogênico, contudo são lesões assintomáticas, de crescimento lento e indolor, descobertos geralmente em consultas de rotina, e que muito comumente são causadores de impactação dentária. Esse trabalho tem por objetivo relatar o caso clínico de uma criança que apresentava um odontoma composto na pré-maxila, ocasionando a impactação de seu incisivo central e comprometimento estético. Relato de caso: Paciente de 12 anos, em preparo para tratamento ortodôntico, no qual na etapa de exames de imagem, foi percebido um odontoma composto na região anterior da maxila o qual impedia a irrupção do dente 21, onde para que se conseguisse o melhor aproveitamento estético e funcional, foi indicado a remoção do tumor com 43 estruturas semelhantes a dentes e o tracionamento do dente associado. Conclusão: O tratamento do odontoma não costuma ter recidivas, permitindo o aproveitamento de possíveis dentes associados e manutenção de estruturas nobres adjacentes. Possibilitando também, o tracionamento do dente impactado ao arco dental, restituindo saúde e estética... (AU)

Introduction: Odontoma is the most common type of odontogenic tumor. They are asymptomatic, slow-growing lesions of unknown etiopathogenesis. They have a density similar to teeth, surrounded by a thin radiolucent halo. Objective: To report a clinical case of traction surgery of an impacted tooth associated with compound odontoma, and a brief literature review. Case report: Patient presented composite odontoma in the anterior region of the maxilla, preventing the eruption of tooth 21. The lesion was noticed during the preparation of the orthodontic treatment and for the success of such procedure, the treatment consisted of the excision of the lesion composed of 43 similar structures to teeth and the preparation of the traction of the maxillary central incisor. Conclusion: The removal of the odontoma was extremely relevant, with this, the impacted tooth was exposed, allowing the placement of the orthodontic button for its traction. Positioning the missing tooth in the dental arch, restoring health and aesthetics... (AU)

Relationship between the use and types of helmets with facial injuries - a prospective study.

INTRODUCTION: many studies have demonstrated the benefits of helmet to prevent and reduce severity of injuries in motorcyclists. OBJECTIVE: the aim of the present study was to evaluate a possible relationship between the use of different types of helmets and the occurrence of facial injuries among victims of motorcycle accidents, seen at Hospital da Restauração, Recife/PE, Brazil. MATERIALS AND METHODS: demographic and trauma data were collected from hospitalized motorcycle accident victims with facial injuries from December 2020 to July 2021. Pearsons chi-square test was used to assess association between two categorical variables using a margin of error of 5%. RESULTS: among the participants, the average age was 33.46 years. The age group between 18 and 29 years was the most prevalent. Most participants were male. 60.0% of motorcyclists used helmets at the time of the accident and of this percentage 37.6% used fixed full-face helmet, 16.5% open-face helmet and the other 5.9% articulated full-face helmet. 62.7% of participants had facial fractures. Among the fractures, those of the zygomatic-orbital complex were the most common fracture and were significantly associated with the use of helmets, especially with open-face helmet. CONCLUSIONS: the use of helmets was associated with a lower number of facial fractures among patients who were victims of motorcycle accidents. Fracture of the zygomatic-orbital complex was related to the absence of a helmet at the time of the accident, as well as the use of open-face helmets.

Materials and methods: demographic and trauma data were collected from hospitalized motorcycle accident victims with facial injuries from December 2020 to July 2021.

RESUMO Introdução: muitos estudos têm demonstrado os benefícios do uso de capacete para prevenir e reduzir a gravidade das lesões em motociclistas. Objetivo: o objetivo do presente trabalho consistiu em avaliar uma possível relação entre o uso dos diversos tipos de capacete e a ocorrência do trauma facial entre vítimas de acidentes motociclísticos atendidos no Hospital da Restauração, Recife/PE, Brasil. Materiais e Métodos: os dados demográficos e referentes ao trauma foram coletados de vítimas de acidentes motociclísticos hospitalizados com lesões faciais durante o período de Dezembro de 2020 a Julho de 2021. O teste do qui-quadrado de Pearson foi utilizado para avaliar a relação entre duas variáveis categóricas utilizando uma margem de erro de 5%. Resultados: a idade média dos participantes foi 33,46 anos. A faixa etária entre 18 a 29 anos foi a mais prevalente. A maioria dos participantes eram do gênero masculino. 60,0% dos motociclistas utilizavam capacetes no momento do acidente e deste percentual 37,6% utilizavam capacete fechado, 16,5% capacete aberto e os outros 5,9% capacete escamoteável. 62,7% dos participantes tiveram fraturas faciais. Dentre as fraturas, as do complexo zigomático-orbitário foram as mais prevalentes e foram associadas com o uso de capacetes, especialmente os abertos. Conclusões: o uso de capacetes foi associado com um menor número de fraturas faciais entre os paciente vítimas de acidentes motociclísticos. A fratura do complexo zigomático-orbitário foi relacionada com a ausência de capacete no momento do acidente, bem como com o uso de capacetes abertos.
