ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective The bleaching agents may interact with restorative materials, such as dental amalgam, providing an increase mercury ions (Hg) release, whose toxic effect is known. Whereas many patients have amalgam restorations (AR) and seek bleaching treatments, the present study aimed to evaluate in vitro the amount of Hg released from AR made with spherical alloy, after being subjected to different concentrations of carbamide peroxide (CP) for home bleaching. Methods 40 class I AR were prepared in bovine teeth. Afterthe restoration, the samples were randomly allocated into 4 groups (n = 10): C (control group), CP10 (CP 10%) CP15 (CP 15%) CP20 (CP 20%) and its treatments were simulated for 14 days for 6 hours daily. The Hg ions released was measured by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and surface changes were assessed in the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Hg levels (percent mass) were recorded and the differences were statistically analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis test and Dunn's "Post hoc" test. Results Statisticalanalysis showed the bleaching treatment resulted in a higher Hg release (p <0.05), although no visible changes were identified in micrographs when comparing the control group with the other groups (CP10, CP15, CP20). Conclusion Increased Hg release may be observed during simulated home bleaching.


RESUMO Objetivo Os agentes clareadores podem interagir com materiais restauradores, como o amálgama, proporcionando um aumento na liberação de íons de mercúrio (Hg), cujo efeito tóxico é conhecido. Considerando que muitos pacientes possuem restaurações de amálgama (AR) e buscam tratamentos clareadores, o presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar in vitro a quantidade de Hg liberado a partir da AR confeccionada com liga tipo esférica, após serem submetidas a diferentes concentrações de peróxido de carbamida (PC) para clareamento caseiro. Métodos 40 AR foram confeccionadas em dentes bovinos classe I. Após a restauração, as amostras foram distribuídas aleatoriamente em 4 grupos (n = 10): C (grupo controle), CP10 (PC 10%) CP15 (PC 15%) CP20 (PC 20%) e seus tratamentos foram simulados por 14 dias, por 6 horas diárias. Os íons de mercúrio liberados foram medidos por espectroscopia de energia dispersiva de raios-X (EDS) e as mudanças de superfície foram avaliadas pelo Microscópio Eletrônico de Varredura (MEV). Resultados A análise estatística demonstrou que o tratamento clareador resultou em uma liberação de íons mercúrio (p <0,05), embora nenhuma alteração visível tenha sido identificada nas micrografias quando compara-se o grupo C com os outros grupos (CP10, CP15, CP20). Conclusão Pode-se observar aumento da liberação de mercúrio durante o clareamento caseiro simulado.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Introduction The term cracked tooth syndrome refers to an incomplete fracture of a vital posterior tooth that involves the dentin and occasionally extends into the pulp. There is a very limited number of publications trying to model dentin crack growth using numerical techniques. Therefore, it is essential to numerically model this phenomenon in order to improve the clinical procedures. Methods A 2D finite element model is proposed to simulate crack initiation and propagation in a restored premolar tooth. The geometric model was based on computed tomography data. A special finite element technique, named mesh fragmentation technique, is used to model and analyze the behavior of the tooth. This technique was used to model cracks in quasi-brittle materials based on the use of interface solid finite elements with high aspects ratio. A tension damage constitutive relation between stresses and strains consistent with the continuous strong discontinuity approach is used to describe crack formation and propagation. Results The main aspects of modeling technique and procedures are explained in detail as well as the whole results, including both elastic and fracture analyses of the restored tooth. Conclusion The results of the current fracture analysis show that, under various loading conditions, there is no crack initiation in the restored tooth under typical loading magnitude. However, in the case of tooth with a pre-existing crack, which can be aroused during the restoration process, a crack propagation was observed, while they did not reach a critical fracture state.

ABSTRACT

Introduction: A significant number of endodontically treated teeth restored with posts have associated periapical lesions, and several authors have discussed the probable causes of the development of these. Attention has been focused on restorative procedures performed after endodontic treatment and their association with the prognosis of endodontic therapy because a number of root-filled teeth will require post- and core-retained restorations. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate, by examination of periapical radiographs, whether the placement of intra-radicular posts in endodontically treated teeth may act as a risk factor for development of periapical lesions. Material and Methods: This case-control study analyzed periapical radiographs of 72 endodontically treated teeth with coronal restorations. All radiographs were obtained from a single private practice. Specimens were assigned to 2 groups: Group 1 (control) was composed of teeth without periapical lesions and Group 2 (case) was composed of teeth with periapical lesions. The number of teeth with and without posts in each group was recorded. Three calibrated examiners analyzed the radiographs visually under X4 magnification. Results: In Group 1, 28 (65.1 percent) out of 43 teeth were restored with posts. In Group 2, 24 (82.8 percent) out of 29 teeth had intra-radicular posts. The interpretation of chi-square test showed that these percentages were not significantly different (x²=2.687; p=0.101). Odds ratio was 2.571 (0.815-8.118), which indicates that there was no statistically significant association between periapical lesions and posts. Conclusion: Intra-radicular posts placed in endodontically treated teeth were not a significant risk factor for development of periapical lesions in the practice where the cohort of patients was treated.

ABSTRACT

O advento da osseointegração proporcionou ao desdentado total ou parcial a possibilidade de reabilitação estética e funcional de forma eficaz e segura. Entretanto, a utilização desta tecnologia de maneira precisa e previsível exige da equipe profissional um diagnóstico correto e um planejamento detalhado. A seleção do número, tamanho e inclinação dos implantes deve ser baseada nas condições anatômicas do paciente e no resultado protético final que se pretende alcançar. Sendo assim, a tomografia computadorizada associada ao guia cirúrgico torna-se o meio mais adequado para estabelecer com precisão uma continuidade lógica entre a restauração planejada e as fases cirúrgicas. Este trabalho tem como objetivo ilustrar, através de uma situação clínica pré-operatória, a importância da utilização desta técnica no planejamento protético-cirúrgico da reabilitação através de implantes osseointegrados. Quando a condição existente não é capaz de garantir um prognóstico previsível e durável, então a condição intrabucal do paciente ou o planejamento protético devem ser modificados

ABSTRACT

Existem, atualmente, no mercado, inúmeros sistemas modernos de cerâmicas odontológicas, que permitem restaurações altamente estéticas. O profissional deve conhecer as características e limitações de cada um desses sistemas, para fazer a seleção apropriada do material, de acordo com a situação clínica. Neste trabalho, os autores apresentam um caso clínico ilustrando o comportamento estético de dois sistemas cerâmicos diferentes, a cerâmica feldspática (D-sign) e a cerâmica aluminizada (In-Ceram). O desempenho desses dois sistemas é demonstrado na confecção de uma coroa total em cerâmica pura, em um incisivo lateral superior, cujo remanescente dental encontrava-se com coloração escurecida em razão de tratamentos anteriores. Na situação descrita, a cerâmica feldspática foi inicialmente indicada, porém, o resultado estético não foi satisfatório, permanecendo uma área de coloração acinzentada de aspecto artificial na região cervical. Esta área cervical de menor valor foi atribuída a maior translucidez das cerâmicas feldspáticas. A coroa feldspática foi, então, removida e substituída por uma coroa em In-Ceram, cuja opacidade da infra-estrutura em alumina resultou em aumento da luminosidade da região cervical e da gengiva marginal, e melhora visível do resultado estético final
