ABSTRACT

Objetivo: avaliar o conhecimento de cirurgiões-dentistas que trabalham em consultórios particulares de Palmas, Tocantins, quanto à utilização de anestésicos locais em pacientes portadores de diabetes mellitus. Materiais e método: trata-se de um estudo descritivo qualitativo, aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa da FAMERP de São José do Rio Preto, sob o protocolo 032/2007 e CAAE: 0065.0.000.140-07, respeitando-se a Resolução 466/12, do Conselho Nacional de Saúde. A coleta de dados foi realizada por meio da aplicação de um questionário, utilizando um formulário estruturado. Resultados: de 113 participantes, 47 (41,6%) eram do sexo masculino e 66 (58,4%) do sexo feminino, com idade média de 35 anos. O anestésico mais utilizado pelos cirurgiões-dentistas avaliados foi a lidocaína 2% + adrenalina 1:100.000 (53,1%), o qual também é o mais utilizado para pacientes diabéticos controlados (64,6%). Quanto à variedade de anestésicos, 47,8% dos avaliados relataram possuir somente 3 tipos de anestésicos no consultório e que 83,2% nunca presenciaram nenhum problema decorrente do uso de anestésico. Além disso, 65,5% relataram não participar de cursos para atualização de conhecimentos, sendo que 53,1% mostraram-se insatisfeitos com o ensino de anestesiologia que receberam na graduação. Conclusão: observou-se que os cirurgiões-dentistas do atendimento odontológico particular de Palmas precisam de uma reciclagem profissional, a fim de atualizarem conhecimentos adquiridos na graduação sobre indicação e utilização de anestésicos locais em tratamentos odontológicos de pacientes com necessidades especiais, com ênfase em pacientes portadores de diabetes mellitus.(AU)


Objective: to evaluate the knowledge of dentists who work in private offices in Palmas, Tocantins, regarding the use of local anesthetics in patients with diabetes mellitus. Materials and method: this research is a qualitative descriptive study, approved by the Research Ethics Committee of FAMERP from São José do Rio Preto, under protocol number 032/2007 and CAAE: 0065.0.000.140-07 in compliance with the Resolution 466/12 of the National Health Council. Data collection was performed through the application of a questionnaire, using a structured form. Results: 47 (41.6%) out of 113 participants were male and 66 (58.4%) female, with an average age of 35 years old. The anesthetic most used by the dentists evaluated was lidocaine 2% + adrenaline 1: 100,000 (53.1%) which is also the most used for controlled diabetic patients (64.6%). As for the variety of anesthetics, 47.8% of those evaluated reported having only 3 types of anesthetics in the office and that 83.2% never saw any problems resulting from the use of anesthetics. Furthermore, 65.5% reported not participating in courses to update knowledge and 53.1% were dissatisfied with the teaching of anesthesiology they received during graduation. Conclusion: it was observed that dentists who work in private dental offices in Palmas need a professional retraining in order to update knowledge acquired during graduation on the indication and use of local anesthetics in dental treatments for patients with special needs, with an emphasis on patients with diabetes mellitus.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Justificativa e Objetivos: O sucesso da técnica anestésica é fundamental para qualquer procedimento e garantia de segurança ao paciente, sendo sustentado por protocolos e fundamentos de caráter imperativo a fim de conferir o melhor atendimento. Nesse sentido, o presente trabalho verificará a utilização dos anestésicos locais, com ênfase em pacientes hipertensos, nos consultórios particulares da cidade de Palmas/TO. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo descritivo, do tipo transversal de abordagem quantitativa realizado por meio de um questionário fechado de construção livre aplicado para profissionais do serviço privado de Palmas/TO, após assinatura do Termo de Consentimento Livre e Esclarecido. Foi realizada análise descritiva de 113 questionários por intermédio do Statistical Package for the Social Sciences 22.0. Resultados: Dos entrevistados, 58,4% eram mulheres, a especialidade mais encontrada foi implantodontia (20,4%); 53,1% apontaram que a escolha do anestésico é feita de acordo com a condição do paciente; 47,8% dos profissionais possuem mais de 3 tipos de anestésicos disponíveis para o atendimento; 53,1% apontou ensino de anestesiologia na graduação satisfatório; 65,5% não frequenta cursos e palestras sobre esse tema; 41,6% dos dentistas aferiam a pressão somente em hipertensos, lidocaína foi o sal mais utilizado de forma geral e também de forma especifica ao considerar somente hipertensos. Conclusão: O anestésico local mais utilizado em hipertensos é a lidocaína 2% com adrenalina 1:100.000, porém a maioria dos profissionais só afere a pressão arterial em já diagnosticados com hipertensão, expondo resultados relativamente satisfatórios em virtude de condutas que ainda necessitam ser readequadas.(AU)


Background and Objectives: The success of the anesthetic technique is f undamental to any procedure and guarantees patient safety, being supported by imperative protocols and fundamentals to provide the best care. This study verifies the use of local anesthetics, focusing on hypertensive patients in private offices of the city of Palmas/Tocantins. Methods: This is a quantitative cross-sectional descriptive study supported by a closed questionnaire of free construction applied to professionals from the private health service of Palmas; all participants signed informed consent forms. In total, 113 questionnaires underwent descriptive analysis using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences 22.0. Results: Of the interviewees, 58.4% were women, the most common specialty was prosthodontics (20.4%); 53.1% answered that the choice of anesthetic is made according to the patient's condition; 47.8% of professionals have more than 3 types of anesthetics available for care; 53.1% indicated teaching anesthesiology in undergraduate courses satisfactory; 65.5% did not attend courses and lectures on this topic; 41.6% of dentists measured pressure only in hypertensive patients, lidocaine was the most widely used salt and specifically when considering only hypertensive. Conclusion: The most commonly used local anesthetic in hypertensive patients is lidocaine 2% with adrenaline 1:100,000, but most professionals only check blood pressure in patients already diagnosed with hypertension, showing relatively satisfactory results due to conducts that still need to be adjusted.(AU)

ABSTRACT

Objective: To analyze the bibliometric profile of articles published in the Pesquisa Brasileira em Odontopediatria e Clinica Integrada (PBOCI). Material and Methods: In this documental study, two trained examiners independently assessed the abstracts of all articles published between 2007 and 2017. Articles were categorized according to the study design, dental specialty and institutional affiliation of the main author. The full article was read whenever the abstract did not allow its classification. Descriptive statistics were used to calculate the absolute and relative frequencies. Results: In total, 670 articles were identified, with predominance of publications in the areas of Pediatric Dentistry (33.3%), Community Health (18.7%) and Restorative Dentistry (12.2%). The most used designs were cross-sectional (58.3%), especially in the areas of Pediatric Dentistry and Community Health; and laboratory studies (25.7%), mainly in the areas of Restorative Dentistry and Endodontics. The Brazilian universities that most published in the Journal were the Federal University of Paraíba (9.7%), followed by the State University of São Paulo (6.4%) and University of São Paulo (6%), characterizing predominance of the Southeastern and Northeastern regions. The publications of authors with international affiliation represented 9.1%. The distribution among nations reveals studies from countries such as India (34.5%), Nigeria (14.8%), Bosnia (11.5%) and Iran (8.2%). Conclusion: PBOCI has provided Brazilian and foreign researchers the opportunity to disseminate studies in all areas of Dentistry, but studies in the fields of Pediatric Dentistry and Community Health are predominant. The most frequent designs were cross-sectional and laboratorial, and in relation to foreign participation, there is predominance of research from countries such as India, Nigeria and Bosnia.

ABSTRACT

Oral and maxillofacial (OMF) injuries in children may lead to developmental and functional disorders. In this cross-sectional study, we analyzed the pattern of OMF injuries in preschool children admitted to the emergency department of a hospital in southern Brazil. Subjects and method: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 1,533 patients admitted from January to December 2011 to identify children aged 0 to 5 years with a diagnosis of OMF trauma. Data were collected on demographic, seasonal and clinical variables. Results: The sample consisted of 288 preschool children (aged 0-5 years) with OMF injuries. Of these, 61.1% were male and 53.2% were <3 years of age. Most children (84.8%) received first medical care from an dentist. Isolated facial injuries were the most common type of injury (85.1%) in this age group. Soft tissue injuries were the most common injury outcome (77.9%), occurring mainly in the nose and lips. Random accidents were the most common cause of OMF trauma (87.7%), and injuries due to falls occurred in 85.9% of these cases. The most common dental trauma was tooth displacement (69.6%). Conclusion: In conclusion, our findings indicate a higher prevalence of OMF injuries in soft tissues, especially in boys in the first three years of life. Falls were the leading cause of injury. Information related to OMF injuries in children are essential for the control of accidents and development of public health policies.

ABSTRACT

Amelogenesis Imperfecta (AI) is an inherited alteration that affects the enamel of primary and permanent teeth, with no systemic manifestations. Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a congenital condition that affects the central nervous system before the age of two, influencing the performance of activities usually conducted by children with normal development. The objective of this study was to describe the dental treatment performed in a 10-year-old child with both amelogenesis imperfecta and cerebral palsy. The family of the child sought the office of the extension project "Gaining Health: Dental Care for Patients with Disabilities" of the Lutheran University of Brazil, located in the city of Canoas, in search of aesthetic rehabilitation. Upon physical and radiographic examination, the AI diagnosis was confirmed. The use of physical restraint with the consent of the parents was necessary to perform dental care. The treatment began with orientations on oral hygiene and eating habits, in addition to supragingival scaling. Next, it was decided to cover the posterior teeth with glass ionomer and to reconstruct the anterior teeth with resin-based composite, using acetate crowns. In the follow-up of the case, an improvement in oral health and aesthetics of the patient was observed. Moreover, this report demonstrates that the complex dental care of disabled patients can be performed in an outpatient environment.


A Amelogênese Imperfeita (AI) é uma alteração hereditária que afeta o esmalte dentário dos dentes decíduos e permanentes, com ausência de manifestações sistêmicas. A Paralisia Cerebral (PC) é uma alteração congênita que afeta o sistema nervoso central antes dos dois anos de idade, dificultando o desempenho de atividades frequentemente realizadas por crianças com desenvolvimento normal. O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever o tratamento odontológico realizado em criança com 10 anos de idade com Amelogênese Imperfeita e Paralisia Cerebral. A família procurou a clínica do Projeto de Extensão "Conquistando Saúde: Atendimento odontológico à pacientes com deficiência" da Universidade Luterana do Brasil Canoas/RS em busca de reabilitação estética. Ao exame físico e radiográfico confirmou-se o diagnóstico de AI. A utilização de estabilização física com a concordância dos pais foi necessária para a realização do tratamento odontológico. O tratamento iniciou com orientações de higiene bucal, dieta e raspagens supra gengivais. Na sequência, optou-se pelo recobrimento com ionômero de vidro dos dentes posteriores e reconstrução dos anteriores com resina composta utilizando-se coroas de acetato. No acompanhamento do caso observou-se melhora na saúde bucal e estética da paciente. Além disso, este relato demonstra que o atendimento odontológico complexo em pacientes com deficiência pode ser realizado em ambiente ambulatorial.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective: To determine the condition of oral hygiene, dietary habits and prevalence of dental caries in adolescents, listing these habits and comparing residents from rural and urban areas. Methods: Cross-sectional study involving of 623 adolescents of both sexes, aged 12 to 17 year old in Santa Cruz do Sul, Brazil. Data were collected through sociodemographic questionnaires and dental examination. We conducted a descriptive analysis of the exposure variables and outcome. A bivariate analysis was then performed using the Chi-square test. Results: The prevalence of caries was 63.6%, in which adolescents living in rural areas had a prevalence of 70.7% and 56.4% in the urban area. The level of mother's education ≤4 years and socioeconomic class B1/B2 and C1/C2 showed statistically significant differences between the areas of residence. Among the demographic variables, the rural area showed a higher prevalence of caries. Conclusion: The results showed a high prevalence of dental caries among the adolescents studied and indicate a correlation between prevalence and the low level of mother's education, socioeconomic status (low to medium) and residence in rural areas. It should be understood that, while the multifactorial nature and stratified caries actions are not taken into consideration, the actions implemented will continue to fail, frustrating the expectations set by government entities.


RESUMO Objetivo: Verificar a condição de higiene bucal, hábitos alimentares e prevalência de cárie dentária em adolescentes, relacionando tais hábitos e comparando residentes da zona rural e urbana. Métodos: Estudo transversal, composto por 623 adolescentes de ambos os sexos, com idade entre 12 e 17 anos do município de Santa Cruz do Sul, Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. Os dados foram coletados através de questionários sociodemográficos e exame clínico odontológico. Realizou-se análise descritiva das variáveis de exposição e desfecho. A análise bivariada foi realizada através de teste de qui-quadrado. Resultados: A prevalência de cárie foi de 63,6%, na qual os adolescentes da zona rural apresentaram prevalência de 70,7% e os da zona urbana 56,4%. O grau de instrução materna ≤4 anos e a classe socioeconômica B1/B2 e C1/C2 apresentaram diferenças estatisticamente significativas entre as zonas de moradia. Entre as variáveis demográficas, a zona rural apresentou maior prevalência de cárie. Conclusão: Os resultados evidenciaram alta prevalência de cárie entre os adolescentes e indicam uma correlação da prevalência com a baixa escolaridade materna, classe socioeconômica (média a baixa) e a residência na zona rural. Deve-se compreender que, enquanto não for levado em consideração a multifatoriedade e a ação estratificada da doença cárie, as ações implementadas continuarão falhando e frustrando as expectativas estabelecidas pelas entidades governamentais.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective: To describe the factors associated with dental caries among students from Santa Cruz do Sul, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in a random sample of 623 students of both genders, aged 10-17 years old. Tooth decay was performed using the index of the World Health Organization (1997), DMFT (permanent dentition) that expresses the sum of decayed, missing and filled teeth per person. The maternal educational level was rated using criteria of the Brazilian Association of Market Research Companies. The remaining variables were obtained by a structured questionnaire. Poisson regression analysis was used to test the association between variables using robust models and a subsequently adjusted model. Data were expressed as prevalence ratio (PR). Results: Multivariate analysis identified the following factors related to the experience of dental caries: residence in rural municipalities (PR: 1.15; 95%CI: 1.0-1.3), attending a city school (PR: 3.30; 95%CI: 1.1-9.4) or a state school (PR: 3.40; 95%CI: 1.1-9.6); and having an illiterate mother or a mother that only attended up to the 4th year of school (PR: 1.67; 95%CI: 1.1-2.4) or high school (PR: 1.54; 95%CI: 1.1-2.2). Conclusions: The presence of caries in students in southern Brazil was associated with residence in rural areas, mother with little education and attendance to a public school.


Resumo Objetivo: Descrever os fatores associados à cárie dentária em escolares de Santa Cruz do Sul, Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. Métodos: Um estudo transversal foi feito em uma amostra aleatória de 623 estudantes de ambos os sexos, entre 10 e 17 anos. A cárie dentária foi avaliada com o índice da Organização Mundial de Saúde (1997) CPO-D (dentição permanente), que constitui a soma de dentes cariados, perdidos e obturados por pessoa. A escolaridade materna foi avaliada com os critérios da Associação Brasileira de Empresas de Pesquisa. As demais variáveis foram obtidas com um questionário estruturado. A análise de regressão de Poisson foi usada para testar a associação entre as variáveis, com modelos consistentes e um modelo ajustado posteriormente. Os dados foram expressos como razão de prevalência (RP). Resultados: A análise multivariada identificou os seguintes fatores relacionados à experiência de cárie dentária: residência em municípios rurais (RP: 1,15; IC95%: 1,0-1,3), frequentar uma escola municipal (RP: 3,30; IC95%: 1,1-9,4) ou estadual (RP: 3,40; IC95%: 1,1-9,6); e ter uma mãe analfabeta ou uma mãe que só estudou até a 4ª série do Ensino Fundamental (RP: 1,67; IC95%: 1,1-2,4) ou o ensino médio (RP: 1,54; IC95%: 1,1-2,2). Conclusões: A presença de cárie em alunos no sul do Brasil foi associada com residência em áreas rurais, mãe com baixo nível educacional e frequentar escola pública.

ABSTRACT

Cross-sectional study of 36 children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Intraoral examination and oral hygiene assessment were performed in all patients. Information was also obtained from interviews of patients' mothers and a review of medical records. Results: The sample was largely composed of boys (58.3%), ages 5­9 years. The most commonly used chemotherapy regimen was the BFM-95 protocol. Most children (83.3%) had a record of some oral manifestation during treatment. On intraoral examination, 17 children (50%) were found to have at least one oral manifestation. The most frequent manifestation was also mucositis (26.5%), followed by gingival bleeding (23.4%). Lower maternal educational level was associated with increased frequency of mucositis, as were induction chemotherapy and maintenance chemotherapy after relapse. Conclusions: Oral abnormalities were common in children receiving chemotherapy and mucositis was the most prevalent manifestation. Oral lesions were associated with the induction phase of chemotherapy. Mucositis was not associated with oral health status.


Estudo transversal de 36 crianças com leucemia linfoblástica aguda (LLA) ou leucemia mieloide aguda (LMA). Exame intraoral e avaliação de higiene bucal foram realizados em todos os pacientes. A informação também foi obtida a partir de entrevistas com as mães dos pacientes e uma revisão dos registros médicos. Resultados: A amostra foi composta em grande parte dos meninos (58,3%), com idades entre 5-9 anos. O regime de quimioterapia mais comumente utilizado foi o protocolo BFM-95. A maioria das crianças (83,3%) teve um registro de alguma manifestação oral durante o tratamento. Ao exame intraoral, 17 crianças (50%) apresentaram ter pelo menos uma manifestação oral. A manifestação mais frequente foi mucosite (26,5%), seguido por sangramento gengival (23,4%). Baixa escolaridade materna foi associada com aumento da frequência de mucosite, assim como a quimioterapia de indução e quimioterapia de manutenção após recaída. Conclusões: Anormalidades orais são comuns em crianças que receberam quimioterapia e mucosite foi a manifestação mais prevalente. As lesões foram associados com a fase de indução da quimioterapia. Mucosite não foi associado com o estado de saúde oral.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective: To determine the association between overweight/obesity in schoolchildren with FTO rs9939609 polymorphism (fatmass and obesity associated) and family history of obesity. Methods: Cross-sectional study comprising a sample of 406 children aged 7-17 years in a city in southern Brazil. Overweight/obesity in schoolchildren was assessed by body mass index (BMI), and family history of obesity was self-reported by parents. Polymorphism genotyping was performed by real time PCR (polymerase chain reaction). The association between the nutritional status of schoolchildren with the presence of family obesity, stratified by polymorphism genotypes (AA [at-risk for obesity], AT, and TT), was assessed by prevalence ratio values (PR) through Poisson regression. Results: Among schoolchildren with the AA genotype, 57.4% had overweight/obesity; the percentage was lower for the AT and TT genotypes (33.1% and 28.9%, respectively). Overweight/obesity in schoolchildren was associated with a family history of obesity, especially among children with the AA genotype. The prevalence was higher among those with an obese mother (PR: 1.28; p < 0.001), obese maternal or paternal grandmother (PR: 1.22; p = 0.047), and obese paternal grandfather (PR: 1.32; p < 0.001). Conclusions: There is an association between the AA genotype of rs9939609 polymorphism and BMI among schoolchildren. The association between overweight/obesity in schoolchildren with a family history of obesity was found mainly among students with the AA genotype.


Resumo Objetivo Verificar se existe relação entre o sobrepeso/obesidade de escolares com o polimorfismo rs9939609, do gene FTO (fat mass and obesity associated), e com o histórico familiar de obesidade. Métodos Estudo transversal composto por uma amostra de 406 escolares, de sete a 17 anos, de um município do sul do Brasil. O sobrepeso/obesidade dos escolares foi avaliado(a) por meio do índice de massa corporal (IMC) e o histórico familiar de obesidade por questões autorreferidas pelos pais. A genotipagem do polimorfismo foi feita por PCR (polymerase chain reaction) em tempo real. A associação entre o estado nutricional dos escolares com a presença de obesidade familiar, estratificada pelos genótipos do polimorfismo (AA - risco para obesidade, AT e TT), foi avaliada pelos valores de razão de prevalência (RP), por meio da regressão de Poisson. Resultados Entre os escolares com o genótipo AA, 57,4% apresentaram sobrepeso/obesidade; para os genótipos TT e AT, o percentual é inferior (33,1% e 28,9%, respectivamente). O sobrepeso/obesidade do escolar associou-se com o histórico familiar de obesidade, principalmente entre os escolares portadores do genótipo AA, foi superior entre os que apresentam mãe obesa (RP: 1,28; p < 0,001), avó materna e paterna obesas (RP: 1,22; p = 0,047) e avô paterno obeso (RP: 1,32; p < 0,001). Conclusões Há relação entre o genótipo AA, do polimorfismo rs9939609, com o IMC dos escolares avaliados. A relação entre sobrepeso/obesidade do escolar com o histórico familiar de obesidade foi encontrada, principalmente, entre os escolares com o genótipo AA.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To identify and analyze cases of OMF treated in an emergency hospital in southern Brazil. Material and Methods: The investigators conducted a retrospective, cross-sectional study. The sample was composed of 1,533 patient medical records. Demographic, seasonal, and clinical variables were collected. Additionally, the medical records also included data on etiological factors, injury site, and tissues involved. A descriptive analysis was conducted based on 1,179 (76.9%) records of OMF injuries. Results: Most patients were male children and adolescents. Accidents (59.7%), such as falls, and interpersonal violence (18.7%), such as physical aggression, were the main etiological factors. Most injuries involved soft tissue (66.4%), especially in the lip region; whereas fractures affected the nasal bones. Transfers and hospitalizations accounted for 8.1% of clinical outcomes and dentists participated in the treatment of 85% of cases. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest a higher prevalence of OMF injuries in men, affecting young people more frequently and showing falls as the main etiological factor. Dentists participated in the majority of the medical care. Future studies will focus on determining risk groups, developing preventive programs, and improving health care services, with the participation of dentists in the multidisciplinary team.

ABSTRACT

Mucocele is a common condition of the minor salivary glands that is generally found on the lower lip. Although etiology is uncertain, mucocele are usually caused by local trauma. Cases involving infants are rarely reported in the literature. The objective of this study is to report an unusual case of mucocele in the fi rst year of life that was treated with surgical removal and postoperative follow-up. This report illustrates the main features of clinical interest and discuss classifi cation, differential diagnosis and the treatment approaches described in the literature.


Mucocele é uma alteração comum de glândulas salivares menores que acomete principalmente o lábio inferior. Embora a etiologia seja incerta, normalmente é causada por um trauma local. Casos envolvendo bebês são raramente relatados na literatura. O objetivo deste estudo é descrever um caso não usual de mucocele no primeiro ano de vida. O tratamento foi a remoção cirúrgica da mucocele e acompanhamento pós-operatório. Com o presente relato pretende-se ilustrar os principais aspectos de interesse clínico, discutindo a classifi cação e o diagnóstico diferencial, além das modalidades terapêuticas descritas na literatura

ABSTRACT

Turner syndrome (TS) was fi rst reported in the literature in 1938 by Laurel Thatcher Ulrich and Henry Turner. This chromosomal alteration only affects female individuals, who have monosomy of the X chromosome. Only one X chromosome is functional, while the other sexual chromosome is either absent or abnormal. The main oral characteristics are transverse defi ciency of the maxilla, mandibular retrognathism, anterior open bite, cleft palate, premature dental eruption, and alterations in the shape, size and thickness of teeth, with an increased number of roots on the fi rst and second premolars. The objective of this study was to describe the clinical case of a patient with TS undergoing orthodontic treatment, and to emphasize the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to patients with TS.


A síndrome de Turner (ST) foi relatada pela primeira vez na literatura em 1938, por Laurel Thatcher Ulrich e Henry Turner. Esta alteração cromossômica afeta somente pacientes do gênero feminino, apresentando uma monossomia do cromossomo X. Isso signifi ca que apenas um cromossomo X é funcional, sendo o outro cromossomo sexual inexistente ou anormal. As principais características orais observadas são defi ciência transversal da maxila, retrognatismo mandibular, mordida aberta anterior, fi ssuras palatinas, erupções dentárias precoces, alterações na forma, tamanho e espessura dos dentes, com aumento do número de raízes nos primeiros e segundos pré-molares. O objetivo deste trabalho foi descrever um caso clínico de uma paciente com ST submetida a tratamento ortodôntico e ressaltar a importância de uma abordagem multidisciplinar para estes pacientes.

ABSTRACT

The eruption cyst is a benign soft tissue anomaly that may occur during eruption of deciduous or permanent teeth. It is usually asymptomatic and its treatment involves clinical follow-up of dental eruption. However, it may become infected or cause discomfort and pain. In such cases, surgical treatment is recommended. The present report aimed to describe a clinical case of eruption cyst located on the deciduous mandibular incisors' area of a four-month-old female infant since her birth. After surgical treatment a change was observed in the position (rotation) of the tooth associated with the cystic lesion. Rotation of the mandibular incisor persisted during the deciduous dentition development.


O cisto de erupção é uma anomalia benigna de tecidos moles que pode ocorrer durante a erupção dos dentes permanentes ou decíduos. Ele é geralmente assintomático e seu tratamento envolve acompanhamento clínico da erupção dental. No entanto, ele pode se tornar infectado ou causar desconforto e dor. Em tais casos, é recomendado tratamento cirúrgico. O presente relato teve como objetivo descrever um caso clínico de cisto de erupção localizado na área dos incisivos inferiores decíduos presente em um bebê de quatro meses de idade desde seu nascimento. Após o tratamento cirúrgico foi observada uma mudança na posição (rotação) do dente associado com a lesão cística. A rotação do incisivo inferior persistiu durante o desenvolvimento da dentição decídua.

ABSTRACT

Specifi cally for the dentistry fi eld, the pact for health expresses the relevance of the process of evaluation and monitoring of primary care programs and services. The aim of the present study was to analyze the oral health poli cy of the city of Porto Alegre, Southern Brazil, in the context of the decentralization in health care implemented by the Brazilian Unifi ed Health System (Sis tema Único de Saúde, SUS), based on the database of the Outpatient Information System (Sistema de Informações Ambulatoriais, SIA). This descriptive, quantitative, normative/evaluative study analyzed secondary data from a historical series of dental procedures conducted in Porto Alegre and recorded by the SIA-SUS from 2008 to 2012. Data were collected directly from the SIA-SUS database. Data were also obtained from city's management reports from 2010 to 2013. Results show that the coverage of both Programmatic First Dental Consultation and Collective Supervised Toothbrushing Action was lower than that established in the pact.

ABSTRACT

To investigate the association between micronutrients intake at 12 months of age and the occurrence of severe early childhood caries (S-ECC) at four years of age among children in southern Brazil.Material and Methods:The baseline sample was made up of 500 mother-child pairs followedsince the birth of the child in São Leopoldo, Brazil. After the first birthday, micronutrients intake (calcium, iron, sodium, zinc, vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin B12 and folate) was recorded using the 24-hour recall method. At four years of age, a calibrated examiner evaluated the occurrence of S-ECC based on internationally accepted criteria. Poisson regression was used to investigate associations between exposures and the outcome.Results:The final sample comprised 314 children. The occurrence of S-ECC was higher among children who consumed less calcium (p=0.009), zinc (p=0.021) and vitamin C (p=0.036). However, after the multivariable adjustments, no micronutrient was associated with the occurrence of S-ECC.Conclusion:Alower intake of micronutrients at 12 months of age did not represent a risk factor for the occurrence of S-ECCat four years of age, suggesting that advice on feeding practices for dental caries prevention should focus mainly on dietary aspects (local effect) rather than nutritional aspects (systemic effect)...

ABSTRACT

AIM: Investigating dental caries prevalence and the need of student's treatment in a small municipality. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A population composed by 217 students was studied, 161 (74.2%) from the urban zone and 56 (25.8%) from the rural zone, resident in Independência, Rio Grande do Sul. The indexes DMFT and dmft for dental caries were used, and the need of dentistry treatment was evaluated according to codes and criteria from Projeto SB Brasil, 2010. RESULTS: Regarding to the presence of dental caries, it was observed that 83.8% (93) of the students presented caries at 06 years old, and 94.3% (100) at 12 years old. The dmft at 6 years was 4.17 and DMFT at 12 years was 3.53. Regarding to the need of treatment, 71.8% (156) of students needed some type of attention, and the surface restoration was the most prevalent. CONCLUSION: High prevalence of dental caries was found, both at 6 and 12 years old (4.17 and 3.53) respectively, and 71.8% needed some type of treatment. The most prevalent treatments were dental surface restoration, dental extraction and sealing pits and fissures.

ABSTRACT

AIM: The objective of this study was evaluating the prevalence of mandibular asymmetry in skeletal Class I adult patients. Materials and methods: The sample was composed by coneEbeam computed tomography images of 250 skeletal Class I patients with age from 18 to 70 years old. The side deviation of mandibular asymmetry was evaluated (right and left), as well as the intensity of this asymmetry. People with gnathic deviation until 2mm were considered as patients with slight asymmetry; deviation between 2 and 5mm was considered moderate asymmetry and those higher than 5mm as severe asymmetries. The error calculation method was performed and there was not significant error in the measurements. To verify the association between the prevalence of mandibular asymmetry and the gender of individuals, the Χ2 was carried out and the significant level adopted was 5% (p<0.05). RESULTS: The results showed that mandibular deviation occurred more frequently to the left side in both genders (male 56.5% e female 58.2%), without statistically significant difference between them (p=0.792). Besides, the prevalence of slight, moderate and severe asymmetries were, respectively 61%, 27% and 12% for males and 54%, 28% and 18% for female; and there was not statistically significant difference (p=0.366) between the gender of the sample evaluated. Conclusion: In this study, both deviation and intensity of mandibular asymmetry did not present preference regarding to the gender.

ABSTRACT

FUNDAMENTO: A obesidade tem sido identificada como importante fator de risco no desenvolvimento de doenças cardiovasculares, porém outros fatores exercem influência, combinados ou não à obesidade, e devem ser considerados na estratificação de risco cardiovascular em pediatria. OBJETIVO: Analisar a associação entre medidas antropométricas e fatores de risco cardiovascular, investigar os determinantes para as mudanças da pressão arterial (PA) e propor uma equação de predição para circunferência de cintura (CC) em crianças e adolescentes. MÉTODOS: Foram avaliadas 1.950 crianças e adolescentes, com idade entre 7-18 anos. Foi investigada a gordura visceral pela CC e a relação cintura-quadril, PA e índice de massa corporal (IMC). Em uma subamostra selecionada aleatoriamente desses voluntários (n = 578), foram medidos o colesterol total, a glicemia e os triglicerídeos. RESULTADOS: A CC se correlacionou positivamente com o IMC (r = 0,85; p < 0,001) e a PA (PAS r = 0,45 e PAD = 0,37; p < 0,001). A glicemia e os triglicerídeos apresentaram correlação fraca com a CC (r = 0,110; p = 0,008 e r = 0,201; p < 0,001, respectivamente). O colesterol total não se correlacionou com nenhuma variável. Idade, IMC e CC foram preditores significativos nos modelos de regressão para PA (p < 0,001). Propõe-se uma equação de predição da CC para crianças e adolescentes: meninos: y = 17,243 + 0,316 (altura em cm); meninas: y = 25,197 + 0,256 (altura em cm). CONCLUSÃO: A CC está associada com fatores de risco cardiovascular e apresenta-se como fator preditor de risco para hipertensão em crianças e adolescentes. A equação de predição para CC proposta em nosso estudo deve ser testada em futuros trabalhos.


BACKGROUND: Obesity has been identified as an important risk factor in the development of cardiovascular diseases; however, other factors, combined or not with obesity, can influence cardiovascular risk and should be considered in cardiovascular risk stratification in pediatrics. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the association between anthropometry measures and cardiovascular risk factors, to investigate the determinants to changes in blood pressure (BP), and to propose a prediction equation to waist circumference (WC) in children and adolescents. METHODS: We evaluated 1,950 children and adolescents, aged 7 to 18 years. Visceral fat was assessed by WC and waist-hip relationship, BP and body mass index (BMI). In a randomly selected subsample of these volunteers (n = 578), total cholesterol, glucose and triglycerides levels were evaluated. RESULTS: WC was positively correlated with BMI (r = 0.85; p < 0.001) and BP (SBP r = 0.45 and DBP = 0.37; p < 0.001). Glycaemia and triglycerides showed a weak correlation with WC (r = 0.110; p = 0.008 e r = 0.201; p < 0.001, respectively). Total cholesterol did not correlate with any of the variables. Age, BMI and WC were significant predictors on the regression models for BP (p < 0.001). We propose a WC prediction equation for children and adolescents: boys: y = 17.243 + 0.316 (height in cm); girls: y = 25.197 + 0.256 (height in cm). CONCLUSION: WC is associated with cardiovascular risk factors and presents itself as a risk factor predictor of hypertension in children and adolescents. The WC prediction equation proposed by us should be tested in future studies.
