ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate patients' pain levels during four different debonding procedures. The null hypothesis was that the pain perception of the patients undergoing four different debonding applications was not statistically significant different. Material and Methods One hundred and twenty orthodontic patients who underwent orthodontic debonding were included in this study. The patients were randomly divided into 4 groups according to technique used in the patients. Debonding groups were as follows: Group 1) Conventional debonding group, Group 2) Medication group (acetaminophen was given 1 hour before debonding), Group 3) Soft bite wax group, and Group 4) Soft acrylic bite wafer group. The patients' levels of anxiety and fear of pain were evaluated before debonding, and Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) was applied to evaluate their pain perception during debonding. Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal-Wallis tests were used to evaluate non-normally distributed data. Categorical data analysis were carried by chi-square and McNemar tests. The significance level was set at p<0.05. Results Anxiety scores of the patients were not statistically significant between both genders and debonding groups. In the quadrants in which the patients were perceived, the highest pain level was in the left side of the mandible. The teeth in which the highest pain level was perceived were the lower left and upper right lateral incisors. Although there was no statistically significant difference among the pain scores of the patients in each group, quadrant scores of female patients showed significant differences, being the lowest scores in the soft bite wax group. Conclusions Majority of the patients had no fear of pain before debonding. Pain levels of the patients in the conventional debonding group were not significantly different from those of the other groups, except quadrant scores of females in the soft bite wax group. The null hypothesis was accepted.

ABSTRACT

Abstract The objective of this study was to assess the effect of a UV light-based auxiliary illumination on adhesive remnant (AR) removal after orthodontic debonding. Sixty human molars were divided according to the adhesive used for bonding: O-opaque; LF-low fluorescence; and HF-high fluorescence. After debonding, the teeth were subdivided according to the AR removal method: No UV light or With UV light. After AR removal, the teeth were polished. Direct visual analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and time quantification for AR removal analyses were performed (Fisher-Freeman-Halton, Fisher's exact, chi-square trend, ANOVA, and independent t-tests; α = 5%). Concerning the adhesives, there was no significant difference among direct visual, SEM and time analyses for AR removal (p ≥ 0.05). Regarding AR removal methods, a similarity among the subgroups was verified for direct visual and SEM analyses (p≥0.05). However, a significant trend was verified for the with UV light method to produce greater marks, and the no UV light method, to produce a greater rate of samples with AR before polishing (p = 0.015). AR removal with light was significantly quicker in comparison with the no UV light method (p < 0.0001). The use of UV light may aid orthodontists in removing AR more thoroughly and in less time. However, they should receive special training to apply this technology, and should never dismiss the final polishing procedure.

ABSTRACT

El procedimiento clínico de descementado de brackets es crítico para el esmalte. La superficie dentaria queda dañada después de este paso clínico, que, en un principio, parecería sencillo e inocuo. El propósito de este trabajo fue examinar la superficie del esmalte luego del descementado y pulido final. Para tal fin se utilizó la magnificación de imágenes, mediante el empleo de un microscopio óptico de luz coaxial. La muestra incluyó el análisis de 10 arcadas superiores de pacientes en la etapa final de tratamiento.


The clinical procedure of debonding of brackets is critical for the enamel. The dental surface remains damaged after this clinical step, which in principle would seem simple and harmless. The purpose of this work was to examine the surface of the enamel after debonding and final polishing. For such purpose the image magnification was used, by means of an optical microscope of coaxial light. The sample included the analysis of 10 upper arches of patients in the final of treatmente.

ABSTRACT

Objective: This study aimed to assess the efficiency of six protocols for cleaning-up tooth enamel after bracket debonding.Methods:A total of 60 premolars were divided into six groups, according to the tools used for clean-up: 12-blade bur at low speed (G12L), 12-blade bur at high speed (G12H), 30-blade bur at low speed (G30L), DU10CO ORTHO polisher (GDU), Renew System (GR) and Diagloss polisher (GD). Mean roughness (Ra) and mean roughness depth (Rz) of enamel surface were analyzed with a profilometer. Paired t-test was used to assess Ra and Rz before and after enamel clean-up. ANOVA/Tukey tests were used for intergroup comparison. The duration of removal procedures was recorded. The association between time and variation in enamel roughness (∆Ra, ∆Rz) were evaluated by Pearson's correlation test. Enamel topography was assessed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).Results:In Groups G12L and G12H, original enamel roughness did not change significantly. In Groups G30L, GDU, GR and GD, a smoother surface (p < 0.05) was found after clean-up. In Groups G30L and GD, the protocols used were more time-consuming than those used in the other groups. Negative and moderate correlation was observed between time and (∆Ra, ∆Rz); Ra and (∆Ra, ∆Rz); Rz (r = - 0.445, r = - 0.475, p < 0.01).Conclusion:All enamel clean-up protocols were efficient because they did not result in increased surface roughness. The longer the time spent performing the protocol, the lower the surface roughness.


Objetivo: esse estudo objetivou avaliar a eficiência de seis protocolos de remoção de resina do esmalte após a descolagem de braquetes.Métodos:sessenta (60) pré-molares foram divididos em seis grupos conforme as ferramentas utilizadas: broca de 12 lâminas em baixa rotação (G12L), broca de 12 lâminas em alta rotação (G12H), broca de 30 lâminas em baixa rotação (G30L), polidor DU10CO-ORTHO (GDU), Renew System (GR) e polidor Diagloss (GD). As médias de rugosidade (Ra) e profundidade média de rugosidade (Rz) da superfície do esmalte foram analisadas com perfilômetro. Teste t pareado foi utilizado para avaliar Ra e Rz antes e depois da limpeza do esmalte; testes de ANOVA/Tukey foram utilizados para avaliar a diferença intergrupos. A duração dos procedimentos de remoção da resina foi registrada. Ainda, a associação entre o tempo e a variação da rugosidade do esmalte (ΔRa, ΔRz) foi avaliada pelo teste de correlação de Pearson. A topografia do esmalte também foi avaliada, por microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV).Resultados:nos grupos G12L e G12H, a rugosidade do esmalte original não se alterou significativamente. Nos Grupos G30L, GDU, GR e GD, foi verificada superfície mais lisa após a limpeza (p< 0,05). Nos Grupos G30L e GD, os protocolos utilizados foram mais demorados que nos demais grupos. Foi observada correlação negativa e moderada entre tempo, ΔRa e ΔRz (r = -0.445, r = -0.475, p< 0,01).Conclusão:todos os protocolos de limpeza do esmalte foram eficientes, pois não resultaram no aumento da rugosidade superficial. Quanto maior o tempo gasto, menor a rugosidade da superfície.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To assess four different chemical surface conditioning methods for ceramic material before bracket bonding, and their impact on shear bond strength and surface integrity at debonding.METHODS: Four experimental groups (n = 13) were set up according to the ceramic conditioning method: G1 = 37% phosphoric acid etching followed by silane application; G2 = 37% liquid phosphoric acid etching, no rinsing, followed by silane application; G3 = 10% hydrofluoric acid etching alone; and G4 = 10% hydrofluoric acid etching followed by silane application. After surface conditioning, metal brackets were bonded to porcelain by means of the Transbond XP system (3M Unitek). Samples were submitted to shear bond strength tests in a universal testing machine and the surfaces were later assessed with a microscope under 8 X magnification. ANOVA/Tukey tests were performed to establish the difference between groups (α= 5%).RESULTS: The highest shear bond strength values were found in groups G3 and G4 (22.01 ± 2.15 MPa and 22.83 ± 3.32 Mpa, respectively), followed by G1 (16.42 ± 3.61 MPa) and G2 (9.29 ± 1.95 MPa). As regards surface evaluation after bracket debonding, the use of liquid phosphoric acid followed by silane application (G2) produced the least damage to porcelain. When hydrofluoric acid and silane were applied, the risk of ceramic fracture increased.CONCLUSIONS: Acceptable levels of bond strength for clinical use were reached by all methods tested; however, liquid phosphoric acid etching followed by silane application (G2) resulted in the least damage to the ceramic surface.


OBJETIVO: avaliar quatro métodos de condicionamento químico da superfície cerâmica, previamente à colagem de braquetes, e seu impacto sobre a resistência ao cisalhamento e a integridade da superfície ao descolamento.MÉTODOS: quatro grupos experimentais (n = 13) foram delineados de acordo com o método de condicionamento da superfície cerâmica empregado: G1 = ácido fosfórico a 37%, seguido da aplicação de silano; G2 = ácido fosfórico líquido a 37%, seguido da aplicação de silano sem lavagem prévia do ácido; G3 = ácido fluorídrico a 10%; e G4 = ácido fluorídrico a 10%, seguido da aplicação de silano. Após o condicionamento da superfície, braquetes metálicos foram colados à porcelana utilizando-se o sistema Transbond XP (3M Unitek). As amostras foram submetidas a ensaios de resistência ao cisalhamento, em máquina de ensaio universal, e as superfícies cerâmicas foram posteriormente avaliadas em microscópio, com magnitude de 8X. Testes ANOVA/Tukey foram realizados para verificar-se a diferença entre os grupos (α = 5%).RESULTADOS: os maiores valores de resistência ao cisalhamento foram encontrados nos grupos G3 e G4 (22,01 ± 2,15MPa e 22,83 ± 3,32Mpa, respectivamente), seguidos por G1 (16,42 ± 3,61MPa) e G2 (9,29 ± 1,95MPa). Quanto à avaliação da superfície após a descolagem do braquete, a utilização de ácido fosfórico líquido seguido da aplicação de silano, sem lavagem do ácido (G2), produziu menores danos à porcelana. Quando ácido fluorídrico e silano foram aplicados, o risco de fraturar a cerâmica aumentou.CONCLUSÕES: níveis aceitáveis de resistência de união para uso clínico foram alcançados por todos os métodos testados. No entanto, o condicionamento com ácido fosfórico líquido, seguido da aplicação de silano (G2), resultou em menor dano à superfície cerâmica.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To assess enamel surface under scanning electron microscopy (SEM) after resin removal and enamel polishing procedures following brackets debonding, as well as compare the time required for these procedures. METHODS: A total of 180 deciduous bovine incisors were used. The enamel surface of each tooth was prepared and brackets were bonded with light cured Transbond XT composite resin. Brackets were removed in a testing machine. The samples were randomized and equally distributed into nine groups according to the resin removal and polishing technique: Group 1, 30-blade tungsten carbide bur in high speed; Group 2, 30-blade tungsten carbide bur in high speed followed by a sequence of 4 Sof-lex polishing discs (3M); Group 3, 30-blade tungsten carbide bur in high speed followed by Enhance tips (Dentsply). All groups were subdivided into (a) unpolished; (b) polished with aluminum oxide paste; and (c) polished with water slurry of fine pumice. Subsequently, the enamel surface was assessed and statistical analysis was carried out. RESULTS: There were statistically significant differences in enamel roughness and removal time among all groups. Groups 3a, 3b and 3c appeared to be the most efficient methods of removing resin with low damages to enamel. Groups 2a, 2b and 2c were the most time consuming procedures, and Group 2a caused more damages to enamel. CONCLUSION: The suggested protocol for resin removal is the 30-blade tungsten carbide bur in high speed followed by Enhance tips and polishing with aluminum oxide paste. This procedure seems to produce less damages and is less time consuming. .


OBJETIVO: avaliar a superfície do esmalte, por meio de microscopia eletrônica de varredura, após descolagem de braquetes e o polimento do esmalte, com diferentes técnicas de remoção de resina, bem como comparar o tempo necessário para a realização do procedimento. MÉTODOS: foram utilizados 180 dentes bovinos decíduos. A superfície do esmalte dos dentes foi preparada e realizada a colagem dos braquetes com resina Transbond XT. Os braquetes foram removidos em máquina de ensaio mecânico. Foram formados, aleatoriamente, nove grupos, de acordo com o tipo de remoção da resina e de polimento, sendo: Grupo 1, broca de tungstênio de 30 lâminas em alta rotação; Grupo 2, broca de tungstênio de 30 lâminas em alta rotação e sequência de quatro discos Soflex (3M); Grupo 3, broca de tungstênio de 30 lâminas em alta rotação e pontas de acabamento Enhance (Dentsply). Todos os grupos foram subdividido em (a) sem polimento, (b) polimento com pasta de óxido de alumínio e (c) polimento com pedra-pomes. As superfícies foram avaliadas e foi realizada análise estatística. RESULTADOS: houve diferença estatística entre os grupos em relação à rugosidade de superfície e ao tempo de remoção. Os grupos 3a, 3b e 3c demonstraram ser os métodos mais eficientes de remoção da resina, promovendo pouco dano à superfície do esmalte. Os grupos 2a, 2b e 2c consumiram maior tempo de procedimento, e o grupo 2a causou maior dano ao esmalte. CONCLUSÃO: sugere-se como protocolo de remoção o uso de broca de tungstênio de 30 lâminas para remoção do maior volume da resina, pontas de acabamento Enhance e polimento com a pasta de óxido de alumínio, por produzirem menor dano. .

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: At orthodontic treatment completion, knowledge about the effects of adhesive remnant removal on enamel is paramount. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed at assessing the effect of different adhesive remnant removal methods on enamel topography (ESI) and surface roughness (Ra) after bracket debonding and polishing. METHODS: A total of 50 human premolars were selected and divided into five groups according to the method used for adhesive remnant removal: high speed tungsten carbide bur (TCB), Sof-Lex discs (SL), adhesive removing plier (PL), ultrasound (US) and Fiberglass burs (FB). Metal brackets were bonded with Transbond XT, stored at 37oC for 24 hours before debonding with adhesive removing plier. Subsequently, removal methods were carried out followed by polishing with pumice paste. Qualitative and quantitative analyses were conducted with pre-bonding, post-debonding and post-polishing analyses. Results were submitted to statistical analysis with F test (ANOVA) and Tukey's (Ra) as well as with Kruskal-Wallis and Bonferroni tests (ESI) (P < 0.05). RESULTS: US Ra and ESI were significantly greater than TCB, SL, PL and FB. Polishing minimized Ra and ESI in the SL and FB groups. CONCLUSION: Adhesive remnant removal with SL and FB associated with polishing are recommended due to causing little damage to the enamel. .


INTRODUÇÃO: na finalização do tratamento ortodôntico, torna-se relevante o conhecimento da ação dos métodos de remoção do remanescente resinoso sobre o esmalte. OBJETIVO: o objetivo do estudo foi avaliar o efeito de métodos de remoção do remanescente de resina após a descolagem do braquete e do polimento na rugosidade (Ra) e topografia (ESI) do esmalte. MÉTODOS: foram selecionados 50 pré-molares humanos, divididos em cinco grupos, de acordo com o método empregado para a remoção da resina residual: broca carbide tungstênio em alta rotação (BCT), discos Sof-Lex (SL), alicate removedor de resina (AL), ultrassom (US) e pontas Fiberglass (PF). Braquetes metálicos foram colados com Transbond XT, armazenados a 37° por 24 horas antes da descolagem com alicate removedor de braquete, sendo aplicados posteriormente os meios de remoção e executado o polimento com pasta de pedra-pomes. Realizou-se análises qualiquantitativas, com avaliações antes da colagem dos braquetes, após a descolagem e após o polimento, sendo os valores obtidos submetidos à análise estatística com teste F (ANOVA), de Tukey (Ra) e testes de Kruskal-Wallis e Bonferroni (ESI) (p < 0,05). RESULTADOS: a Ra e o ESI do US foram significativamente maiores do que BCT, SL, AL e PF. O polimento reduziu a Ra e ESI dos grupos SL e PF. CONCLUSÃO: a remoção do adesivo resinoso com SL e PF associados ao polimento são os métodos mais indicados por ocasionarem as menores alterações do esmalte. .

ABSTRACT

Aim: To evaluate the histological changes following electrothermal debonding (ETD) of ceramic brackets. Materials and Methods: A total of 50 first premolar teeth from 14 patients were divided into two groups: Group I consisted of 20 teeth which served as control, and the brackets were debonded using conventional pliers. (7 teeth were extracted 24 hours after conventional debonding, 7 teeth were extracted 28 to 32 days after conventional debonding and 6 teeth were extracted 56-60 days after conventional debonding). Group II consisted of 30 teeth and the brackets were debonded using the ETD unit. (10 teeth were extracted 24 hours after ETD, 10 teeth were extracted 28 to 32 days after ETD and 10 teeth were extracted 56-60 days after ETD. Immediately after extraction, the teeth were sectioned and prepared for histological examination. Results: The pulp was normal in most samples of the control group. In group II, mild inflammation was observed in the 24 hour sample while the 28 to 32 day sample showed signs of healing. The 56-60 day sample showed that the pulp was similar to the control group in 6 out of the 10 samples. Conclusion: The ETD of ceramic brackets did not affect the pulp and the changes which were observed, were reversible in nature

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the influence of bonding and debonding of orthodontic brackets on dental in-home bleaching, taking into account three different adhesive systems. METHODS: Forty-four bovine incisors were divided into four groups according to the primer system used for orthodontic bracket bonding. Following the debonding of orthodontic brackets, the teeth were stored in staining solution for 96 hours. Then, teeth were whitened using 10% carbamide peroxide for two weeks at a 6-hour-a-day regime. Standardized digital photographs were taken at the following intervals: T0 (initial); T1 (after debonding); T2 (after pigmentation); T3, T4 and T5 representing 1, 7, and 14 days of bleaching. Repeatability and stability tests were carried out to check the method accuracy. Images were analyzed using Adobe Photoshop 7.0 software considering (L*a*b*)color coordinate values and a modified color difference total (Δ;E'). RESULTS: The results of this study (ANOVA and Tukey; p < 0.01) demonstrated that after 7 days of bleaching, experimental groups showed significantly less teeth whitening compared to the control group. However, there were no significant color differences between the groups after 14 days, according to values of lightness (L*). CONCLUSIONS: Regardless of the adhesive primer system applied, bonding and debonding of orthodontic brackets alters the outcome of tooth whitening in the first 7 days of bleaching, however it has no influence on the whitening of the dental structure after 14 days of in-home dental bleaching with 10% carbamide peroxide.


OBJETIVO: o objetivo desse estudo foi avaliar a influência da colagem e descolagem de braquetes ortodônticos no clareamento caseiro, considerando três diferentes sistemas adesivos. MÉTODOS: quarenta e quatro incisivos bovinos foram divididos em quatro grupos, de acordo com o sistema adesivo utilizado para colagem dos braquetes. Após a descolagem dos braquetes, os dentes foram pigmentados por 96 horas e depois clareados com peróxido de carbamida a 10% por 6 horas diárias, durante duas semanas. Foram realizadas fotografias digitais padronizadas nos tempos: T0 (inicial); T1 (após descolagem); T2 (após pigmentação); T3, T4 e T5 representando 1, 7 e 14 dias de clareamento. Testes de repetitividade e de estabilidade foram realizados para avaliar a acurácia do método. As imagens foram avaliadas pelo software Adobe Photoshop 7.0, considerando os parâmetros de cor (L*a*b*) e a diferença total de cor adaptada para esse estudo (Δ;E'). RESULTADOS: os resultados do presente estudo (ANOVA e Tukey; p < 0,01) demonstraram que, após uma semana de clareamento, os grupos experimentais apresentaram uma resposta mais lenta ao clareamento que o grupo controle. Contudo, após 14 dias, não houve diferença cromática significativa entre os grupos, observada pelos valores de luminosidade (L*). CONCLUSÕES: independentemente do sistema adesivo utilizado, a colagem e descolagem de braquetes ortodônticos altera os resultados de obtenção de cor com sete dias de avaliação. Contudo, após 14 dias não se observa nenhuma diferença de cor na estrutura dentária clareada pela técnica caseira.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To determine the shear bond strength of orthodontic brackets using color change adhesives that are supposed to aid in removing excess of bonding material and compare them to a traditional adhesive. METHODS: Ninety metallic and ninety ceramic brackets were bonded to bovine incisors using two color change adhesives and a regular one. A tensile stress was applied by a universal testing machine. The teeth were observed in a microscope after debonding in order to determine the Adhesive Remnant Index (ARI). RESULTS: The statistical analysis (ANOVA, Tukey, and Kruskall-Wallis tests) demonstrated that the mean bond strength presented no difference when metallic and ceramic brackets were compared but the bond resistance values were significantly different for the three adhesives used. The most common ARI outcome was the entire adhesive remaining on the enamel. CONCLUSIONS: The bond strength was similar for metallic and ceramic brackets when the same adhesive system was used. ARI scores demonstrated that bonding with these adhesives is safe even when ceramic brackets were used. On the other hand, bond strength was too low for orthodontic purposes when Ortho Lite Cure was used.


OBJETIVO: determinar a resistência adesiva à tração de braquetes ortodônticos usando resinas coloridas que se propõem a ajudar na remoção do excesso de material adesivo e compará-las com um adesivo tradicional. MÉTODOS: Noventa braquetes metálicos e 90 cerâmicos foram colados com dois adesivos coloridos e com um adesivo tradicional em incisivos inferiores bovinos, sendo aplicada tração com uma máquina de ensaios universal. Após a descolagem, os dentes foram observados em microscópio para a determinação do índice de adesivo remanescente (ARI). RESULTADOS: a análise estatística (testes ANOVA, de Tukey e de Kruskall-Wallis) demonstrou que a força de união média foi significativa entre os adesivos usados. Os ARIs mais comuns foram aqueles onde o adesivo permaneceu no esmalte. CONCLUSÃO: a resistência adesiva foi similar entre braquetes metálicos e cerâmicos quando o mesmo adesivo foi usado. Os resultados do ARI demonstraram que esses adesivos são seguros, mesmo com o uso de braquetes cerâmicos. A resistência adesiva foi muito baixa para Ortodontia no grupo colado com Ortho Lite Cure.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate, in vitro, the bond strength of brackets bonded to premolars previously subjected to bleaching with a 35% hydrogen peroxide. METHODS: Twenty one healthy premolars were selected and randomly divided into three groups (n = 7). Group I (G1) included teeth that were not submitted to bleaching. The enamel surfaces of Groups II (G2) and III (G3) were submitted to a bleaching process with 35% hydrogen peroxide (Whiteness HP Maxx). On Group II (G2), after bleaching, the teeth were stored for 24 hours in distilled water at 98.6 ºF, and then, premolar metallic brackets were bonded using Transbond XT (3M) resin. Group III (G3) was submitted to the same procedure seven days after bleaching. After bonding, all teeth were stored in distilled water at 98.6 ºF for 24 hours. All groups were submitted to a traction test using an EMIC DL2000 universal testing machine at a speed of 0.5 mm/min. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The bracket resistance to debonding was compared between the groups by the Kruskal-Wallis nonparametric test (p < 0.05) and it was verified that the bleaching agent significantly reduced bracket adhesion when bonded 24 hours after bleaching. However, seven days after bleaching, there was no significant difference on the resistance to debonding among groups G1 (19,52 kgf) and G3 (18,44 kgf), meaning that it is necessary to wait longer after bleaching to bond brackets.


OBJETIVO: o propósito do presente estudo in vitro foi avaliar a resistência de união de braquetes colados em pré-molares previamente submetidos ao clareamento com peróxido de hidrogênio a 35%. MÉTODOS: foram estudados 21 dentes pré-molares hígidos, divididos aleatoriamente em três grupos (n = 7). O grupo I (G1) incluiu os dentes que não foram submetidos ao clareamento. As superfícies de esmalte dos grupos II (G2) e III (G3) foram submetidas ao processo de clareamento com peróxido de hidrogênio a 35% (Whiteness HP Maxx). No grupo II (G2), após o clareamento, os dentes foram armazenados por 24 horas em água destilada a 37ºC e, em seguida, braquetes metálicos para pré-molares foram colados utilizando resina Transbond XT (3M). O grupo III (G3) também foi submetido ao mesmo procedimento, sete dias após o clareamento. Após a colagem, todos os dentes foram armazenados em água destilada a 37ºC por 24 horas. Todos os grupos foram submetidos ao teste de tração utilizando-se máquina universal de ensaios Emic DL2000 a uma velocidade 0,5mm/min. RESULTADOS E CONCLUSÃO: a resistência à descolagem dos braquetes foi comparada entre os grupos por meio da utilização do teste não paramétrico Kruskall Wallis (p < 0,05), verificando-se que o agente clareador reduziu significativamente a adesão dos braquetes quando colados 24 horas após o clareamento. No entanto, 7 dias após o clareamento, não houve diferença na resistência à descolagem entre os grupos G1 (19,52kgf) e G3 (18,44kgf), sendo necessário, portanto, aguardar um maior tempo após o clareamento para a colagem de braquetes.

INTRODUÇÃO: é fundamental, para alcançar a correta técnica de descolagem, a seleção adequada do instrumental para remover o braquete e a resina remanescente. OBJETIVO: avaliar a superfície do esmalte com Microscópio Eletrônico de Varredura (MEV) após a utilização de três métodos de remoção da resina remanescente da descolagem do braquete. MÉTODOS: foram selecionados 18 incisivos bovinos, divididos em três grupos (A, B e C), contendo 6 dentes cada. Previamente à colagem do braquete, os dentes foram moldados com silicone de adição e preenchidos com resina epóxi, para o registro das características do esmalte, assim formando o Grupo Controle. Os métodos de remoção da resina remanescente utilizados foram: Grupo A - Soflex granulações grossa e média; Grupo B - broca Carbide em baixa rotação; Grupo C - broca Carbide em alta rotação. Polimento com Soflex granulações fina e ultrafina no Grupo A, pontas de borracha nos grupos B e C, e pasta de polimento para esmalte nos três grupos. Após cada etapa de remoção da resina remanescente e polimento, os dentes foram novamente moldados, duplicados e as réplicas analisadas em MEV. Foram, então, comparadas as características do esmalte inicial (Grupo Controle) com o aspecto do esmalte após as etapas de remoção de resina, assim possibilitando avaliar o método que gerou menor abrasão ao esmalte. RESULTADOS E CONCLUSÃO: a remoção do remanescente adesivo com broca Carbide multilaminada em baixa rotação, polimento com pontas de borracha, e polimento final com pasta de polimento é o procedimento que ocasiona menor dano ao esmalte.


INTRODUCTION: An appropriate selection of instruments is essential to perform a correct debonding technique, by properly removing orthodontic brackets and the remaining resin.OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate three methods of remaining resin removal on enamel surface after bracket debonding, by means of Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM).METHODS: Eighteen bovine incisors were selected and divided into three groups (A, B and C) of six teeth each. Before bracket bonding, epoxy resin casts were obtained by impression of the teeth with addition silicon, in order to register baseline enamel characteristics and representing the control group. The methods for remaining resin removal were: Group A - gross and medium granulation Soflex discs; Group B - carbide bur in low-speed; Group C - carbide bur in high-speed. Soflex polishing system fine and ultrafine granulation discs were used for Group A, rubber tips for Groups B and C, and polishing paste for all groups. After polishing, impression of teeth were taken and casts were analyzed by means of SEM. The baseline enamel characteristics (Control Group) were compared to the final aspect of enamel to determine the method that generated less enamel abrasion.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The remaining resin removal by carbide bur in low-rotation, and enamel polished with rubber tips followed by polishing paste produced the smaller damage to the enamel.

ABSTRACT

This study evaluated the effectiveness of 3 solvents (Citrol orange oil, Eucalyptol and Tetrachloroethylene) and 2 associations of solvents (Citrol orange oil+Tetrachloroethylene and Eucalyptol+Tetrachloroethylene) on 3 types of gutta-percha (conventional, thermoplastic and EndoREZ) and Resilon. Ten discs (10 mm diameter x 1 mm thick) from each material were prepared using standard metallic molds. Each specimen was weighed to determinate its initial mass. The specimens were immersed in the solvents for 10 min, followed by immersion in distilled water for 20 min, and were then reweighed to obtain the final mass. The mean weight loss determined the solvent capacity. Data were analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey's test at 5 percent significance level. Tetrachloroethylene was the most effective on conventional gutta-percha (p<0.05). Tetrachloroethylene was also the most effective on thermoplastic gutta-percha, but it was not significantly different (p>0.05) from Eucalyptol+Tetrachloroethylene, Citrol+Tetrachloroethylene, and Citrol. All solvents and associations presented little effectiveness on Resilon. The association Eucalyptol+Tetrachloroethylene was the most effective on EndoREZ, but it did not differ significantly (p>0.05) from Citrol+Tetrachloroethylene and Tetrachloroethylene. All evaluated substances presented solvent action. Tetrachloroethylene improved the effectiveness of both Citrol and Eucalyptol.


Este estudo avaliou a efetividade de 3 solventes (Citrol, Eucaliptol e Tetracloroetileno) e 2 associações (Citrol+Tetracloroetileno e Eucaliptol+Tetracloroetileno) sobre 3 tipos de guta-percha (convencional, termoplástica e EndoREZ) e Resilon. Dez discos (10 mm x 1 mm) de cada material foram preparados utilizando moldes metálicos. Cada espécime foi pesado para determinar a massa inicial. Os mesmos foram imersos nas soluções testadas por 10 min e em água destilada por 20 min. Os espécimes foram novamente pesados, agora para determinar a massa final. A perda média de peso determinou a capacidade solvente. Os dados foram analisados pelos testes ANOVA e Tukey. O tetracloroetileno foi o mais efetivo sobre a guta-percha convencional (p<0,05). Ele também foi o mais efetivo sobre a guta-percha termoplástica, mas sem diferença significativa para o Eucaliptol+Tetracloroetileno, Citrol+Tetracloroetileno e o Citrol (p>0,05). Todos os solventes e associações apresentaram pequena ação sobre o Resilon. A associação Eucaliptol+Tetracloroetileno obteve o melhor resultado sobre o EndoREZ, mas sem diferença significativa para o Citrol+Tetracloroetileno e o Tetracloroetileno (p>0,05). Todas as soluções apresentam ação solvente. O Tetracloroetileno melhorou a efetividade do Citrol e do Eucaliptol.

ABSTRACT

Aim: This study evaluated the surface roughness (Ra) and the topography (scanning electron microscopy) of the dental enamel after use of different methods for removal of residual resin after debonding of orthodontic brackets. Methods: Nine roughness measurements in three directions were made on enamel surface of 60 human premolars before bracket bonding (Ra initial).Ceramic brackets were bonded with Transbond XT and stored for 24 h/37°C before debonding with pliers. The specimens were divided in five groups according to the method used for removal of residual resin: control (C); carbide bur at slow-speed (CL); carbide bur at high speed (CH); Shofu tip at low speed (SB); Shofu tip at high speed (HB); debonding pliers (ZP). Nine final surface roughness measurements (Ra final) were made and one specimen of each group was observed by SEM. The data were analyzed statistically by ANOVA, Tukey’s test and paired t test(p<.05). Results: Ra final of SB was significantly higher than C, CL, CH, and ZP groups. The test showed that the Ra final was significantly higher than Ra initial for SB and CL. Conclusions:The method used for removal of residual resin influenced the roughness of the enamel. Carbide bur at high speed presented the best results and Shofu at low speed presented the worst results.

ABSTRACT

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of manual and rotary instrumentation techniques for removing root fillings after different storage times. Twenty-four canals from palatal roots of human maxillary molars were instrumented and filled with gutta-percha and zinc-oxide eugenol-based sealer (Endofill) , and were stored in saline for 6 years. Non-aged control specimens were treated in the same manner and stored for 1 week. All canals were retreated using hand files or ProTaper Universal NiTi rotary system. Radiographs were taken to determine the amount of remaining material in the canals. The roots were vertically split, the halves were examined with a clinical microscope and the obtained images were digitized. The images were evaluated with AutoCAD software and the percentage of residual material was calculated. Data were analyzed with two-way ANOVA and Tukey's test at 5 percent significance level. There was no statistically significant differences (p>0.05) between the manual and rotary techniques for filling material removal regardless the ageing effect on endodontic sealers. When only the age of the filling material was analyzed microscopically, non-aged fillings that remained on the middle third of the canals presented a higher percentage of material remaining (p<0.05) compared to the aged sealers and to the other thirds of the roots. The apical third showed a higher percentage of residual filling material in both radiographic and microscopic analysis when compared to the other root thirds. In conclusion, all canals presented residual filling material after endodontic retreatment procedures. Microscopic analysis was more effective than radiographs for detection of residual filling material.


O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a efetividade da instrumentação manual e rotatória na remoção de material obturador de canais radiculares de raízes palatinas de molares superiores humanos, em dois períodos de tempo. Vinte e quatro raízes foram instrumentadas e obturadas com guta-percha, cimento de óxido de zinco e eugenol e armazenadas em solução salina durante 6 anos. Outras 24 raízes foram tratadas da mesma maneira e armazenadas por uma semana. Os canais radiculares foram retratados usando limas manuais ou instrumentos rotatórios do Sistema ProTaper Universal. Radiografias periapicais foram feitas para mensurar a quantidade de material remanescente. Posteriormente as raízes foram clivadas e imagens microscópicas obtidas a partir de um microscópio clínico operatório foram digitalizadas. As imagens foram avaliadas através do software Autocad 2004 e área de material obturador remanescente foi mensurada. A Análise da Variância (Two-way) e o Teste T demonstraram não haver diferenças estatisticamente significantes entre a técnica manual e rotatória na remoção de material obturador. O terço apical mostrou a maior percentagem de remanescentes de material obturador, na análise radiográfica e microscópica quando comparado com os outros terços radiculares. Todos os canais revelaram resíduos de material obturador após o retratamento endodôntico. A análise microscópica foi mais efetiva do que a radiográfica na detecção de remanescente de obturação do canal radicular.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: This in vitro study evaluated the influence of luting agents on ultrasonic vibration time for intraradicular cast post removal. MATERIAL AND METHODS: After endodontic treatment, 30 roots of extracted human canines were embedded in resin cylinders. The post-holes were prepared at 10 mm depth and their impressions were taken using autopolymerizing acrylic resin. After casting procedures using a nickel-chromium alloy, the posts were randomly distributed into 3 groups (n=10) according to the luting material: G1- zinc phosphate (SS White) (control group), G2 - glass ionomer cement (Vidrion C; SS White), and G3- resin cement (C&B; Bisco). In G3, the adhesive procedure was performed before post cementation. After 24 h, the cement line was removed at the post/tooth interface using a fine diamond bur, and the ST-09 tip of an Enac ultrasound unit was applied at maximum power on all surfaces surrounding the posts. The application time was recorded with a chronometer until the post was completely dislodged and data were analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey's test (p<0.05). RESULTS: The roots were removed from the acrylic resin and inspected to detect cracks and/or fractures. The means for G1, G2, and G3 were 168.5, 59.5, and 285 s, respectively, with statistically significant differences among them. Two G3 posts resisted removal, one of which developed a vertical fracture line. CONCLUSIONS: Therefore, the cement type had a direct influence on the time required for ultrasonic post removal. Compared to the zinc phosphate and glass ionomer cements, the resin cement required a longer ultrasonic vibration time.

ABSTRACT

Objetivou-se com esse trabalho avaliar se há diferença na quantidade de perda de esmalte durante a remoção do compósito remanescente após a descolagem do braquete, utilizando a broca de carboneto nº 1171 em baixa e em alta rotação. Foram empregados 40 incisivos bovinos com braquetes metálicos colados com compósito em suas respectivas superfícies vestibulares. Os dentes foram divididos em 2 grupos de 20 dentes cada, de acordo com a rotação da broca utilizada para a remoção do compósito remanescente. A superfície de esmalte foi quantificada antes da colagem e após a descolagem e polimento final. Houve uma perda média de esmalte de 29,4 micrômetros no grupo que utilizou a broca em baixa rotação e de 37 micrômetros no grupo que utilizou a broca em alta rotação, sendo a diferença estatisticamente significante em nível de 1%. Concluiu-se que o uso da broca de carboneto de tungstênio nº 1171 em baixa rotação, na remoção do compósito remanescente, foi o método que acarretou menos danos à superfície de esmalte após a remoção do compósito.

ABSTRACT

This study evaluated the efficiency of different techniques for removal of filling material from root canals, using computed tomography (CT). Sixty mesial roots from extracted human mandibular molars were used. Root canals were filled and, after 6 months, the teeth were randomly assigned to 3 groups, according to the root-filling removal technique: Group A - hand instrumentation with K-type files; Group B - reciprocating instrumentation with engine-driven K-type files; and Group C rotary instrumentation with engine-driven ProTaper system. CT scans were used to assess the volume of filling material inside the root canals before and after the removal procedure. In both moments, the area of filling material was outlined by an experienced radiologist and the volume of filling material was automatically calculated by the CT software program. Based on the volume of initial and residual filling material of each specimen, the percentage of filling material removed from the root canals by the different techniques was calculated. Data were analyzed statistically by ANOVA and chi-square test for linear trend (?=0.05). No statistically significant difference (p=0.36) was found among the groups regarding the percent means of removed filling material. The analysis of the association between the percentage of filling material removal (high or low) and the proposed techniques by chi-square test showed statistically significant difference (p=0.015), as most cases in group B (reciprocating technique) presented less than 50 percent of filling material removed (low percent removal). In conclusion, none of the techniques evaluated in this study was effective in providing complete removal of filling material from the root canals.


O objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar a eficácia de diferentes técnicas na remoção de material obturador dos canais radiculares, através da tomografia computadorizada (TC). Sessenta raízes mesiais de molares inferiores humanos extraídos foram utilizadas. Os canais radiculares foram obturados e, após 6 meses, os dentes foram divididos aleatoriamente em 3 grupos, de acordo com a técnica de desobturação: Grupo A - instrumentação manual com limas tipo K; Grupo B - instrumentação oscilatória com limas tipo K acopladas a contra-ângulo NSK acionado por motor elétrico; e Grupo C - instrumentação rotatória com limas ProTaper associadas a contra-ângulo NSK acionado por motor elétrico. As imagens de TC foram feitas para avaliar o volume de material obturador encontrado no interior dos canais radiculares antes e após a desobturação. A região do material obturador foi demarcada nos dois momentos por um radiologista experiente e o volume foi calculado automaticamente pelo programa do TC. A partir do volume de material obturador inicial e remanescente de cada espécime o cálculo da porcentagem de material obturador removido. Os dados foram analisados pela análise de variância (ANOVA) e pelo teste qui-quadrado (?=0,05). A comparação das médias das porcentagens de material obturador removido não demonstrou diferença estatisticamente significante (p=0,36) entre os grupos. Analisando a associação do percentual de material obturador removido (baixo ou alto) com as diferentes técnicas de desobturação, através do teste Qui-quadrado, encontrou-se diferença estatisticamente significante (p=0,015), com maior número de casos com menos de 50 por cento de seu material obturador removido (baixa remoção) no Grupo B. Em conclusão, nenhuma das técnicas estudadas foi capaz de remover completamente o material obturador do interior dos canais radiculares.

ABSTRACT

O presente estudo tem como objetivos: avaliar em Microscopia Eletrônica de Varredura (MEV) o aspecto da superfície de esmalte, localizado sob o braquete, após a descolagem e o emprego de quatro técnicas de acabamento e polimento; avaliar ao MEV a presença de resina composta remanescente no esmalte após acabamento. Vinte pré-molares foram selecionados, utilizando-se as faces vestibulares e linguais para colagem dos braquetes, com resina composta (Transbond XT-3M). A descolagem dos braquetes foi feita com alicate removedor, seguida da remoção da resina composta remanescente. Os procedimentos de acabamento foram divididos, conforme a técnica. GRUPO 1: ponta diamantada dourada em alta rotação, GRUPO 2: broca multilaminada de 12 lâminas em alta rotação, GRUPO 3: broca de carboneto de tungstênio em baixa rotação e GRUPO 4: alicate removedor de resina. Para polimento, utilizaram-se discos de lixa (Sof Lex - 3M). As superfícies foram avaliadas e os dados foram analisados estatisticamente pela análise de Variância de Friedman (p<0,05) e teste qui-quadrado (p<0,05). Os resultados demonstraram haver diferença estatisticamente significante do grupo 1 em relação aos demais grupos. Não houve diferenças significativas entre os grupos 2, 3 e 4, classificando-se em ordem de melhor resultado o grupo 4, grupo 2, grupo 3 e, por último, o grupo 1. Não foi observada resina composta remanescente na superfície do esmalte dos dentes. Com base nos resultados obtidos, conclui-se que todas as técnicas causaram algum dano ao esmalte, vistas ao microscópio.

ABSTRACT

El propósito de este estudio fue investigar, in vivo, la efectividad de dos materiales adhesivos: un primer insensible a la humedad (MIP) y otro autograbante en un solo paso (SEP). Ambos materiales fueron utilizados con Transbond XT sobre esmalte seco y húmedo de los primeros premolares superiores e inferiores (n=124) que debían ser extraidos por razones ortodónticas. La comparación del comportamiento de los mismos fue realizada bajo cuatro situaciones diferentes: 1) MIP sobre esmalte grabado y seco; 2) MIP sobre superficie grabada y humedecida con saliva del paciente; 3) SEP sobre campo seco y 4) SEP sobre esmalte húmedo con saliva. Sobre la cara vestibular de cada unidad se adhirieron brackets de acero inoxidable APC con resina incorporada. La fuerza de despegue fue medida con un alicate de ortodoncia modificado, en uno de cuyos brazos fue adosado un transductor extensométrico que permitía medir la deformación del mismo. Para el análisis estadístico se aplicó análsis de varianza (ANOVA) y el test de comparación múltiple de Dunn-Sidak con una probabilidad menor al 0,05 (antes de la corrección). El primer insensible a la humedad evaluado sobre esmalte húmedo mostró la mayor fuerza de despegue (MIP: 8,98MPa), comparado con el de grabado en un sólo paso (SEP: 5,81MPa). La diferencia estadística entre ambos grupos resultó altamente significativa (p=0.000). Basándose en el hecho de que el SEP requiere una técnica de un solo paso y que la media para la fuerza de despegue (en ambas condiciones) resultó suficiente para los propósitos clínicos, además de un comportamiento homogéneo de sus resultados (menor variabilidad), fue considerada una opción válida entre los materiales comparados, aún cuando el MIP en condiciones de humedad presentó la mayor fuerza de despegue y valores similares de variabilidad
