ABSTRACT
Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the association of pain-related disability with biopsychosocial factors in temporomandibular disorders (TMD) patients. The study was carried out at the Orofacial Pain Outpatient Clinic of the State University of Feira de Santana, Bahia, from September 2018 to March 2020. The sociodemographic aspects, TMD subtypes, presence of pain-induced disability, pressure pain threshold, perceived stress, anxiety, depression, and catastrophizing were evaluated in 61 patients. The studied variables were compared between patients with and without pain-induced disability. Crude and adjusted logistic regression were performed to obtain estimates of odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals. With the exception of catastrophizing, there was no association between the biopsychosocial factors and pain-induced disability. The presence of catastrophizing increased the chance of having chronic pain-induced disability by 4.02 times. The results of this study indicate a strong association between pain catastrophizing and disability in individuals with chronic painful TMD.
ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Objective: To describe the elaboration and content validation of a comic book for guidance on the safe use of fluoride toothpaste by children. Material and Methods: Study on the development of educational technology carried out in four phases: 1 - literature review and script; 2 - elaboration of the material (illustrations, layout and design), 3 - validation (Content Validity Index = CVI and Flesch Readability Index = FI), 4 - pilot test to legitimize the material with the target population. Thirty-one individuals participated in the validation, being 07 expert judges and 24 representatives of the lay population, responsible for the daily care of preschool and school-age children. Results: In the validation, CVI= 0.97 (97%), indicating high agreement of the judges' answers; and FI = 92%, which corresponds to "very easy to understand" reading. In the pilot test carried out with the lay population, the 3 assessment blocks had CVI=1.0 (100%). Conclusion: The comic book proved to be valid regarding appearance and content and can be used for health education activities for adults on the use of fluoride toothpaste for oral hygiene in children.

Objective: To evaluate the in vitro and in situ anti-cariogenic potential and bond strength to enamel of materials containing fluoride (F), used for bracket bonding: Transbond XT (GT, negative control), Transbond Plus Color Change (GTF), Transbond-Self-Etching Primer (GSAF) and Vitremer (GV, positive control). Material and method: In the in vitro study, the specimens were premolars with bonded brackets (n=12/group). After pH cycling, the F release, bond strength, fracture mode and presence of white spot lesions were assessed. In the in situ study, the specimens were enamel fragments with bonded brackets (n=12/group). Twelve volunteers wore palatal appliances in 4 phases, with cariogenic challenge. Bond strength, fracture mode and change in surface hardness (%SH) were determined. Result: Relative to the in vitro study, F release (ppm) was: GT=0.257±0.068c; GTF=0.634±0.100b; GSAF=0.630±0.067b; GV=2.796±1.414a. Only GV showed no white spot lesions. Bond strength values (MPa) were GT=7.62±7.18a; GTF=5.15±6.91ab; GSAF=3.42±2.97bc; GV=2.87±2.09c. Adhesive fracture was the most frequent type, except for GTF. In the in situ study, %SH was: GT=-56.0±18.3a; GTF=-57.6±11.9a; GSAF=-57.1±11.3a; GV=-52.4±25.8a. Bond strength values were GT=9.5±4.4a; GTF=11.1±5.9a; GSAF=13.2± 6.6a; GV=6.6±4.0a. Cohesive fracture in material was the most frequent type, except for GTF. Conclusion: Vitremer (GV) showed the highest anti-cariogenic potential in the in vitro study. However, it was not confirmed by the in situ study. Regarding bond strength values from the in situ study, all materials were shown to be adequate for clinical practice.
Objetivo: Avaliar in vitro e in situ o potencial anti-cariogênico e a resistência adesiva ao esmalte de materiais contendo fluoreto utilizados para a colagem de braquetes: Transbond XT (GT, controle negativo), Transbond Plus Color Change (GTF), Transbond Self Etching Primer (GSAF) and Vitremer (GV, controle positivo). Material e método: No estudo in vitro, as unidades experimentais foram premolares com braquetes colados (n = 12/grupo). Após ciclagem de pH, a liberação de F, resistência adesiva, modo de fratura e presença de mancha branca foram avaliados. No estudo in situ, as unidades experimentais foram fragmentos de esmalte com braquetes colados (n = 12/grupo). Os doze voluntários utilizaram dispositivos palatinos em 4 fases, com desafio cariogênico. Resistência adesiva, modo de fratura e variação de dureza superficial (%SH) foram determinados. Resultado: No estudo in vitro, a libertação de F (ppm) foi: GT=0,257±0,068c; GTF=0,634±0,100b; GSAF=0,630±0,067b; GV=2,796±1,414a. Apenas GV não apresentou lesões de mancha branca. Os valores de resistência de união (MPa) foram GT=7,62±7,18a; GTF=5,15±6,91ab; GSAF=3,42±2,97bc; GV=2,87±2,09c. A fratura adesiva foi mais frequente, com exceção de GTF. Para o estudo in situ, % SH foi: GT=-56,0±18,3a; GTF=-57,6±11,9a; GSAF=-57,1±11,3a; GV=-52,4±25,8a. Os valores de resistência de união foram GT=9,5±4,4a; GTF=11,1±5,9a; GSAF=13,2±6,6a; GV=6,6±4,0a. Fratura coesiva no material foi a mais frequente, exceto para GTF. Conclusão: Vitremer (GV) apresentou maior potencial anti-cariogênico no estudo in vitro, mas isso não se confirmou no estudo in situ. Os valores de resistência de união, a partir do estudo in situ, demonstraram que eles são adequados para a prática clínica.

Introduction: The increasing consumption of maltodextrin-containing sports drinks, usually acidic, during physical activity may cause dental erosion. Objective: To evaluate the effect of dilution on the erosive potential of maltodextrin-containing sports drinks. Methodology: Five samples of five maltodextrin-containing sports drinks [Sports Nutrition (SN), Body Action (BA), New Millen (NM), Athletica Nutrition (AN), Integral Medica (IM)] were diluted with distilled water in three different proportions: as recommended by manufacturer (rec), with 20% more powder (20+) and with 20% less powder (20-) than recommended. Their pH and titratable acidity (volume of 1N NaOH necessary to raise pH to 5.5) were determined. Result: The pH and titratable acidity differed among the products, and pH values differed among the dilutions. All sports drinks showed pH below the critical pH for dental enamel demineralization. There was a significant negative correlation between pH and titratable acidity (p <0.01; r = -0.795). Conclusion: Changes in the dilution of maltodextrin-containing sports drinks affected their pH, but not their titratable acidity.

A realização de facetas estéticas diretas em resina composta permite a recuperação estética de forma conservadora de dentes com tratamento endodôntico que apresentam alteração cromática e não respondem às técnicas de clareamento dental. Este trabalho relata caso clínico de paciente que apresentava descontentamento com a cor escurecida do dente 21 e com o tamanho dos dentes adjacentes. O escurecimento ocorreu após trata- mento endodôntico e se manteve inalterado após realização de clareamento interno. Após anamnese, diagnóstico clínico e radiográfico, foi indicado à realização de faceta direta com resina composta nanoparticulada no dente 21. As resinas com nanopartículas apresentam à incorporação de partículas de carga com tamanho nanométrico entre 20 e 75 nanômetros, a matriz orgânica tendo como vantagens as propriedades estéticas das resinas de micro- partículas e propriedades de resistência similar às resinas híbridas, sendo um composto de indicação de uso universal. Após a realização da faceta, foi feito o recontorno cosmético nos dentes adjacentes com discos de lixa, usados em ordem decrescente de granulação. Obteve-se melhora na estética do sorriso recuperando a cor e alinhamento dentário.
The use of direct nanofill resin composite veneer allows an esthetic recovery of stained endodontically-treated teeth when dental bleaching techniques failure. This study shows a clinical case of an unsatisfied patient that complied about the tooth colored central incisor (21) and the shape of the others anterior teeth. The darkness appeared after the endo- dontic treatment and left unchanged after the use of walking-bleaching technique. After anamnesis, clinical and radiographic diagnosis, the use of direct nanofiller resin composite veneer was indicated for central incisor (21), and that cosmetic recountouring was made in the other teeth. A new class of dental composites, the nanofill resin composite has been developed with a nanometer-sized particles; averaging 20 and 75 nanometers in size the resin matrix, showed high translucency and polish retention similar to those of microfill, while maintaining physical properties and wear resistance equivalent to those of several hybrid composites, universal restorative is one. The patient got a better smile and recovered the color and alignment of anterior teeth.
