ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of chewing gums containing CPP-ACP in remineralisation of demineralised enamel around orthodontic brackets. Material and Methods: Enamel blocks from 120 bovine incisors were used. The blocks were flattened and polished, followed by the development of incipient subsurface caries. The blocks have been subjected to a baseline microhardness analysis. Orthodontic brackets were bonded to the exposed area of the blocks, reserving an area for hardness analysis. An in situ crossover (three-way crossover phases of 21 days with an interval of one week between them), controlled, randomised and blind experimental model was used, with the participation of 12 volunteers divided into groups: G1 - negative control group, without chewing gum; G2 - conventional sugar-free chewing gum, without CPP-ACP (placebo); and G3 - sugar-free chewing gum with CPP-ACP. The following parameters were analysed: superficial linear (Ra), volumetric roughness (Sa), and superficial structural loss, which was indicated by Gap measurement (difference between the healthy and treated area). Statistical tests used were the Friedman, Wilcoxon and Shapiro-Wilk, Kruskal Wallis' nonparametric tests and ANOVA. Results: There was a significant reduction in enamel microhardness after demineralisation in all the groups (p<0.05). This deleterious effect was attenuated in the three groups after the final evaluation, although there were no statistical differences (p<0.05); however, the final values did not return to the baseline values (p<0.05). Conclusion: Chewing gum containing CPP-ACP did not promote in situ remineralisation of demineralised enamel around orthodontic brackets.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: avaliar a atratividade estética de máscaras faciais do tipo Delaire de diferentes cores. Métodos: oito cores de máscaras faciais ortopédicas do tipo Delaire foram avaliadas. As imagens foram obtidas de um mesmo paciente e padronizadas por meio do editor de imagens Adobe Photoshop CS. As cores avaliadas foram: branca, cinza, verde, amarela, azul, rosa, marrom e preta. Após a aquisição das imagens, essas foram impressas em papel fotográfico e incorporadas a um questionário específico e personalizado. O questionário foi distribuído para crianças de ambos os sexos, nas faixas etárias de 7 a 8 e de 9 a 10 anos, em escolas públicas e privadas (n = 200). O teste de Mann-Whitney foi usado para análise das notas atribuídas a cada imagem, e, para a análise entre os grupos, usou-se a correlação de Spearman. O nível de significância adotado foi de 5%. Resultados: apenas as notas dadas à cor azul apresentaram diferenças estatisticamente significativas entre os estudantes de escolas públicas e privadas. Na comparação entre sexos, os meninos pontuaram melhor as cores cinza e preta, enquanto as meninas pontuaram melhor a cor rosa. Comparando as faixas etárias examinadas, não houve diferença estatística. Conclusão: a cor da máscara facial do tipo Delaire influencia na atratividade estética para crianças de 7 a 10 anos, e a preferência por determinadas cores sofre influencia também do sexo e do tipo de escola (pública ou privada).
