ABSTRACT

RESUMEN: El tratamiento de trastornos óseos genéticos a nivel dentomaxilofacial suele ser muy complejo e invasivo. La displasia cleidocraneal es una condición que se caracteriza por generar a nivel oral hiperdoncia, y en consecuencia, apiñamiento dentario, retardo en la erupción y retención de dientes temporales, entre otros. En este caso el paciente presentaba dentición mixta primera fase a los 13 años de edad, fue tratado en conjunto con un equipo multidisciplinario donde se ha logrado un tratamiento mínimamente invasivo mediante cirugías por cuadrante y ortodoncia, consiguiendo alineamiento adecuado, nivelación y una oclusión lo más estable posible, además de una estética aceptable. El tratamiento expuesto demuestra que se pueden lograr buenos resultados con planificaciones conservadoras, sin embargo, existe una necesidad de alto compromiso y adhesión al tratamiento por parte del paciente y su familia.


ABSTRACT: The treatment of genetic bone disorders at dentomaxillofacial level is usually very complex and invasive. Cleidocranial dysplasia is a condition that is characterized by oral hyperdontia, and consequently, dental crowding, delayed eruption and retention of temporary teeth, among others. In this case the patient had first phase mixed dentition at the age of 13, he was treated collectively by a multidisciplinary team. A minimally invasive treatment was achieved through surgery and orthodontics, reaching proper alignment, leveling and an occlusion as stable as possible, in addition to acceptable aesthetics. The present approach shows that good results can be achieved with conservative planning. However, one of the keys for success is the patient´s commitment.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: To assess the damage and the prevalence of caries and fluorosis in children and adolescents in the metropolitan area after 8 years of drinking water fluoridation and to compare them with the baseline study. METHODS: This was a prevalence study. The sample was selected using two-step probability sampling and stratified according to socioeconomic level. Subjects included 2,323 schoolchildren aged 6 to 8 years and 12 years living within the metropolitan region. The parents of all students provided consent and were previously included in the study. The subjects were clinically examined by calibrated dentists, who used World Health Organization (WHO) screening criteria and indicators to determine the presence of caries and dental fluorosis. RESULTS: No cavity damage was found in 23.68 percent of the children. The average dmft was 3.18 for children aged 6 to 8 years. The DMFT was 0.59 in children aged 6 to 8 years and 2.6 in children 12 years compared with the baseline study. These differences were statistically significant. There were also significant differences in the DMFT index for each socioeconomic status group. The average number of dams was higher among children of low socioeconomic status. Of the studied children, 14.3 percent of children had dental fluorosis. Fluorosis was very mild in 12.35 percent of the cases, mild in 1.98 percent and moderate in 0.26 percent. There were no cases of severe fluorosis (classified according to Dean's index). CONCLUSION: We conclude that after 8 years drinking water fluoridation in the metropolitan area, the number of children with no history of caries has increased by approximately 100 percent. The number of cases significantly affected by caries has also decreased significantly. The incidence of dental fluorosis has increased, but to milder degrees.


OBJETIVO: Avaliar o dano e a prevalência de cárie e fluorose em crianças e adolescentes na região metropolitana do Chile, após oito anos de fluoretação da água potável, em comparação com o estudo de base em 1996. METODOLOGIA: Desenho: estudo de prevalência. A amostra probabilística, estratificada por nível socioeconômico, constituiu-se de 2.323 escolares de 6-8 e 12 anos na Região Metropolitana. Todos os alunos foram clinicamente examinados por dentistas calibrados, utilizando critérios de seleção e indicadores propostos pela OMS para determinar cárie e fluorose dentária. RESULTADOS: Cerca de 24 por cento das crianças estavam livres de cáries. A média de CPOD foi de 3,18 em escolares de 6 a 8 anos. O CPOD foi de 0,59 em crianças de 6 a 8 anos e de 2,6 em crianças de 12 anos em relação ao estudo de base, sendo essas diferenças estatisticamente significativas. Houve diferenças significativas devido ao nível socioeconômico, sendo que os valores médios foram maiores em crianças de baixo nível socioeconômico. Cerca de 14 por cento das crianças apresentaram fluorose dentária, em geral de grau muito leve. CONCLUSÃO: Após 8 anos de fluoretação da água potável na região metropolitana, observou-se um aumento de 100 por cento de crianças sem história de cárie e significativa diminuição de danos. A fluorose dentária aumentou, mas em graus mais leves.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: To evaluate the periodontal status and the treatment needs of Chilean school-children METHODS: Prevalence study. Sample: 1,637 schoolchildren from 6 to 8 years old belonging to 26 communes of the Santiago Metropolitan Region of Chile, stratified according to socioeconomic level in accordance with the 2003 CASEN survey (National Socioeconomic Characterization Survey). Periodontal status was estimated using the Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Needs (CPITN) and following the recommendations of the WHO (World Health Organization), along with the records of the Clinical Criteria of Gingival Inflammation. Data were analyzed using a chi-square test. RESULTS: Gingivitis prevalence was 68.42 percent, a result that is higher than the national prevalence (P<0.01; 95 percent CI=0.66-0.70). The prevalence increased with age (P<0.01) but was similar in both sexes (P=0.838). Prevalence was relatively constant among three socioeconomic levels (P=0.417). According to the CPITN, gingivitis prevalence was 29.57 percent: 27.49 percent consisting of children with gingival hemorrhage and 2.08 percent consisting of children with gingival calculus. The treatment needs of this population are that 27.49 percent of children require oral-hygiene instruction, and 2.08 percent need oral-hygiene instruction and subgingival and supragingival scaling. CONCLUSION: The gingivitis prevalence found in this study was higher than the national proportion in Chile.


OBJETIVO: Avaliar a condição periodontal e as necessidades de tratamento de crianças escolares chilenas. METODOLOGIA: Estudo de prevalência. Amostra: 1637 crianças escolares de 6 a 8 anos de idade pertencentes a 26 comunidades da região metropolitana de Santiago, Chile, que foram estratificadas de acordo com o nível socioeconômico conforme o levantamento 2003 CASEN (National Socioeconomic Characterization Survey). A condição periodontal foi estimada usando o índice Community Periodontal Index of Treatment Needs (CPITN) e seguindo as recomendações da Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS), juntamente com os registros de critérios clínicos de inflamação gengival. Os dados foram analisados por testes qui-quadrado. RESULTADOS: A prevalência de gengivite foi de 68,42 por cento, resultado que é maior que a prevalência nacional do Chile (P<0,01; 95 por cento CI=0,66-0,70). A prevalência aumentou com a idade (P<0,01), mas foi similar em ambos os sexos (P=0,838). A prevalência foi relativamente constante entre os três níveis socioeconômicos (P=0,417). Para CPITN, a prevalência de gengivite foi de 29,57 por cento: 27,49 por cento com sangramento gengival e 2,08 por cento s com cálculo gengival. As necessidades de tratamento desta população foram de 27,49 por cento de crianças que necessitavam de instrução de higiene bucal e 2,08 por cento que necessitavam de instrução de higiene bucal e raspagem supra e subgengival. CONCLUSÃO: A prevalência de gengivite neste estudo foi maior que a proporção nacional no Chile.
