ABSTRACT

Este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar a espessura de esmalte das faces proximais dos incisivos inferiores, e comparar as mensurações da largura mesiodistal obtidas nas radiografias e nos modelos de gesso, para cada incisivo inferior. Para isso, 29 pacientes que estavam em tratamento ortodôntico tiveram os modelos de gesso e as radiografias periapicais mensuradas na largura mesiodistal, realizada com paquímetro digital na altura do ponto de contato. A espessura de esmalte também foi mensurada nas radiografias periapicais utilizando o mesmo método, nas faces mesiais e distais. Os dados foram analisados utilizando-se os testes Anova two-way e Tukey, com nível global de significância de 5%. O teste de Tukey demonstrou que os incisivos laterais inferiores (32 e 42) apresentavam largura mesiodistal maiores, quando comparados aos incisivos centrais (31 e 41). Para a espessura de esmalte nas faces proximais, não houve diferença estatística (p > 0,05) para interação dente X face proximal (p=0,953), e para o fator dente (p=0,102), no entanto, para fator face proximal demonstrou diferença estatisticamente significante (p=0,00). O teste de Tukey apontou que as faces distais apresentam maior espessura de esmalte (0,79 mm) quando comparados às faces mesiais de esmalte (0,71 mm). Pôde-se concluir que: 1) o método de mensuração da largura mesiodistal através de modelo de gesso ou de radiografias periapicais apresentam resultados estatisticamente semelhantes; 2) os dentes 32 e 42 apresentam maior largura mesiodistal do que os 31 e 41; e 3) tanto para os incisivos laterais quanto para os incisivos centrais, a face distal apresenta maior espessura de esmalte...


This study aimed to evaluate measurements the enamel thickness of the proximal surfaces in lower incisors and to compare the measurements of the average-distal width obtained on radiographs and dental casts for each incisor. Twenty-nine patients who were undergoing orthodontic treatment. Both plaster models as in periapical radiographs to measure the mesiodistal width was performed with a digital caliper at the time of the contact point. The thickness of enamel was measured on periapical radiographs using the same method, both the mesial, the distal surface of each incisor. Data were analyzed using two-way Anova and Tukey, with global significance level of 5%. The Tukey test showed that the lower lateral incisors (32 and 42) have higher mesiodistal width when compared to the central incisors (31 and 41). For the thickness of enamel in proximal faces no statistical difference (p > 0.05) for tooth X proximal face interaction (p=0.953) and for the tooth factor (p=0.102), however, compared to proximal factor showed a difference statistically significant (p=0.000). The Tukey test showed that the distal faces have thicker enamel (0.79 mm) compared to the mesial faces of enamel (0.71 mm). It can conclude that: 1) the method of measuring mesiodistal width through the plaster model or periapical radiographs are statistically similar results; 2) the tooth 32 and 42 have higher mesiodistal width of the 31 and 41; 3) for lateral incisors and central incisors, the distal face has greater thickness of enamel...

ABSTRACT

Estimating enamel thickness and planning the resultant optimal morphology of premolars aresubstantial steps before interproximal stripping. Aim: To analyze proximal enamel thickness andcrown measurements in maxillary premolars. Methods: The mesiodistal, buccolingual andcervico-occlusal measurements of 40 human maxillary first premolars (20 right, 20 left) wereregistered with a digital caliper. The teeth were embedded in acrylic resin and sectioned mesiodistallyat the level of the contact areas to obtain 1 mm-thick central sections. Enamel thickness on theproximal surfaces was measured using a perfilometer. Measurements were compared by theStudent’s t-test (α = 0.05). Results: The mean enamel thickness on the mesial surface was 1.22mm for the right (± 0.17) and left (± 0.18) sides. On the distal surface, the corresponding valueswere 1.28 mm (± 0.19) on the right side and 1.39 mm (± 0.17) on the left side. Mean values, inmillimeters, for the mesiodistal, buccolingual and cervico-occlusal measurements on both sidesranged from 7.03 (± 0.43) to 7.07 (± 0.48), 9.59 (± 0.48) to 9.65 (± 0.58) and 8.65 (± 0.66) to8.85 (± 0.65), respectively. There were no significant differences between right and left teeth.However, enamel thickness was significantly greater (p<0.05) on the distal surface. Conclusions:In maxillary first premolars, considering the greater thickness of distal enamel, interproximalstripping during orthodontic treatment may be more pronounced on this surface. The greatestmean value was observed for the buccolingual crown measurement, followed by the cervicoocclusaland mesiodistal dimensions.

ABSTRACT

A associação entre flexão da base do crânio e prognatismomaxilar foi avaliada em dois grupos raciais brasileiros. A amostraconsistiu de 240 crânios macerados de leucodermas (n = 120) emelanodermas (n = 120) de ambos os gêneros. A flexão da base docrânio e o prognatismo maxilar foram investigados por meio da estimativados valores médios dos ângulos NHBa e NABa, respectivamente.Aplicou-se o teste t Student (a = 0,05) nas comparações dos valoresmédios do ângulo NHBa, entre grupos raciais e gêneros. A associaçãoentre os ângulos NHBa e NABa foi avaliada pela análise de correlaçãolinear. Os valores médios do ângulo NHBa apresentaram-se maiores emmelanodermas (femininos = 183° e masculinos = 181,7°), comparadosaos leucodermas (femininos = 180,7° e masculinos = 178,4°), p <0,01. A maioria das correlações entre os ângulos NHBa e NABa não foisignificativa. Houve diferenças raciais e dimorfismo sexual no que serefere à flexão da base do crânio. As correlações entre as grandezasangulares que medem a flexão da base do crânio e o prognatismo maxilarnão foram significativas, à exceção dos melanodermas femininos.Sugere-se uma tendência para a elevação do prognatismo maxilar àmedida que aumenta a inflexão da base do crânio no referido grupo.


The association between cranial base flexure and maxillaryprognathism was assessed in two Brazilian racial groups. Thesample comprised 240 dry skulls of white (n = 120) and black (n = 120)Brazilians, of both genders. Cranial base flexure and maxillary prognathismwere investigated by estimating the mean values of the NHBa andNABa angles, respectively. TheNHBa angle mean values were comparedbetween racial groups and genders using the student t-test (a = 0.05).The association between NHBa and NABa angles was assessed by thelinear correlation analysis. NHBa angle mean values were higher in blackindividuais (females = 183° and males = 181.7"), compared with whiteindividuais (females = 180.;0 and males = 178.4°), p < 0.01. Most ofthe correlations between NHBa and NABa angles were not significant.Concerning the cranial base flexure, there were racial differences andsexual dimorphism. The correlations between the angular variables usedto estimate cranial base flexure and maxillary prognathism were notsignificant, except for black females. It may be suggested that a trendto increased maxillary prognathism is related to the enlargement of thecranial base flexure angle in the above-mentioned group.

ABSTRACT

A estimativa radiográfica da espessura do esmalte é relevante para aplicação das técnicas de desgaste proximal no tratamento ortodôntico, visando evitar danos aos tecidos adjacentes. Esta pesquisa teve por objetivo validar estimativas da espessura doesmalte proximal, executadas por meio de radiografias convencionais, com base nos dados das análises de secções dentárias. Foram avaliadas imagens radiográficas das faces proximais de 40 dentes primeiros pré-molares superiores humanos hígidos extraídos. Dois examinadores em consenso realizaram as mensurações radiográficas com auxílio de paquímetro digital,sobre negatoscópio, em sala com baixa intensidade de luz. Para validação, secções longitudinais centrais dos dentes (1 mm) foram analisadas ao perfilômetro, instrumento de precisão milesima!. As análises comparativas foram viabilizadas pelo teste de Mann-Whitney (a = 5%). As médias de espessura do esmalte, nas imagens radiográficas das faces mesial e distal,foram equivalentes a ] ,28 mm (± 0,15) e ] ,27 mm (± 0,12), respectivamente. Por outro lado, ao perfilômetro, os valores foram: 1,22 mm (± 0,17) para a face mesial e ] ,32 mm (± 0,19) para a dista!. Não houve diferenças significantes entre dentesdos lados direito e esquerdo, para os dois métodos. Ao perfilômetro, a espessura média do esmalte foi maior na face distal(p < 0,0 I). Houve diferença significativa entre métodos para a espessura do esmalte na face distal; mais elevada ao perfilômetro(p < 0,05). A espessura do esmalte foi subestimada por mensurações radiográficas nas faces distais de primeiros pré-molares superiores. Contudo, sugere-se que a subestimativa radiográfica observada neste estudo não apresenta significância clínica.


Radiographic estimation of approximal enamel thickness is important for application of stripping techniques, during orthodontic treatment, to avoid damaging the adjacent tissues. The aim of this study was to validate the estimates of approximal enamelthickness, carried out using conventional radiographs, based on data from histological analysis of teeth sections. Radiographic images ofthe approximal surfaces of 40 extracted human maxillary first premolars were assessed. Measurements were performedby two examiners in consensus using digital caliper and viewing box, under subdued lighting in sec/uded room. For validation, longitudinal sections (1 mm), at the tooth center; were analyzed using a perfilometer; a higb precision measuring device. Data werecompared by Mann-Whitney test (a = 5%). Mean enamel thicknesses, in radiographic images ofthe mesial and distal surfaces, were equivalent to 1.28 mm (± 0.15) and 1.27 mm (± 0.12), respectively. However, by perfilometer; the values were: 1.22 mm (±0.17)for the mesial surface and 1.32 mm (± 0.19) for the distal one. No significant difJerences werefound between right and lefl teeth, by the studied methods. By perfilometer; the distal mean enamel thickness was greater compared with that for the mesial surface (p < 0.01). Considering the distal surface, there was significant difference between methods; mean enamel thickness washigher by perfilo meter (p < 0.05). Enamel thickness was underestimated by radiographic measurements in the distal surfaces of maxillaryfirst premolars. Nevertheless, it may be suggested that the radiographic underestimation observed in this study does nothave c1inicalsignificance.
