ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective To evaluate the amount of apically extruded debris, percentage of foraminal enlargement and apical foramen (AF) deformation that occurred during root canal preparation with different reciprocation systems: Reciproc, WaveOne (M-Wire), and ProDesign R (Shape Memory Technology Wire) at two different working lengths (WLs): 0.0 and 1.0 mm beyond the AF. Material and methods The AF of 120 root canals in 60 mesial roots of mandibular molars were photographed with stereomicroscope and randomly assigned into four groups: manual, Reciproc (REC), WaveOne (WO), and ProDesign R (PDR); subsequently, they were further subdivided according to the WL (n=15). Teeth were instrumented, coupled to a dual collecting chamber, and then another photograph of each AF was captured. Extrusion was analysed by determining the weight of extruded debris. Each AF diameter was measured in pre- and post-instrumentation images to determine deformation, which was analysed, and afterwards the final format of AFs was classified (circular/oval/deformed). Results We found no significant differences when analysing each system at different WLs. When considering each WL, REC and WO showed highest extrusion values (P<.05); for AF enlargement, differences were observed only for WO, when it was used beyond the AF; differences were observed among M-Wire groups beyond the AF (P<.05). AF deformation was observed in all groups; PDR showed the lowest AF deformation values at both WLs; M-Wire groups showed 50% strain beyond the AF. Conclusion Authors concluded that beyond the apical limit, the alloy and taper are important aspects when considering extrusion and deformation.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Postoperative pain is a frequent complication associated with root canal treatment, especially during apical instrumentation of tooth with preexisting periradicular inflammation Objectives The aim of this clinical study was to evaluate the influence of the instrumentation techniques on the incidence and intensity of postoperative pain in single-visit root canal treatment. Material and Methods Ninety patients with single root/canal and non-vital pulps were included. The patients were assigned into 3 groups according to root canal instrumentation technique used; modified step-back, reciprocal, and rotational techniques. Root canal treatment was carried out in a single visit and the severity of postoperative pain was assessed via 4-point pain intensity scale. All the participants were called through the phone at 12, 24 and 48 h to obtain the pain scores. Data were analyzed through the Kruskal–Wallis test. Results There was significant difference between all groups (p<0.05). The modified step-back technique produced postoperative pain significantly lower than the rotational (p=0.018) and reciprocal (p=0.020) techniques. No difference was found between the reciprocal and rotational techniques (p=0.868). Postoperative pain in the first 12 h period (p=0.763) and in the 24 h period (p=0.147) was not significantly different between the groups. However, the difference in the 48 h period was statistically different between the groups (p=0.040). Conclusion All instrumentation techniques caused postoperative pain. The modified step-back technique produced less pain compared to the rotational and reciprocal techniques.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: evaluar el nivel de contaminación por Candida spp, post uso del instrumental de ortodoncia que se utiliza intrabucalmente en pacientesColombianos y Argentinos. Materiales y métodos: Se incluyeron pacientesentre 16 y 65 años, de ambos sexos, con armado de brackets superior e inferior. Criterios de Exclusión: pacientes con brackets de autoligado, con enfermedades autoinmunes, con enfermedades sistémicas con manifestaciones en el periodonto, pacientes fumadores, menores de 16 años y con armado de brackets en un solo maxilar. Se analizaron los alicates de corte distal Hu Friedy luego de ser utilizados para seccionar el arco por distal del último tubo presente enboca. Se estudiaron 80 pacientes agrupados en: Grupo A 40 pacientesColombianos, Grupo B 40 pacientes argentinos. Se realizó una primer tomaintrabucal con un hisopo estéril y se llevó a un tubo con medio de Stuart. Se cortaron las 4 secciones distales de los arcos en boca tardando al menos 1 minuto. Con un segundo hisopo estéril se frota toda la superficie del alicate post uso y se llevaron a otro tubo. Se sembraron en Chromagar Candida y se realizaron pruebas microbiológicas convencionales. Resultados: Las pinzas estériles aparecen contaminadas post corte distal delos alambres en el 95% de los casos en ambos países. Hubo diferencia entrelos pacientes colombianos y los argentinos respecto a las especies, ya que enlos primeros la especie con mayor prevalencia fue Candida tropicalis tanto en lapinza como en la cavidad bucal, mientras que en los argentinos fue Candidaalbicans. Conclusión: las pinzas de ortodoncias se contaminan con Candidaspp post utilización en boca y son un fómite a partir del cual puede generarsediseminación sistémica así como infección cruzada.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate various kinematic movements on postoperative pain using a Reciproc system. Material and Methods: Fifty-six molar teeth were divided into four groups according to kinematics as follows: continuous rotation, 360° CCW – 30° CW, 270° CCW – 30° CW, and 150° CCW – 30° CW. Preoperative and postoperative pain levels using visual analogue scale (VAS), percussion pain, and analgesic intake were recorded for each subject. Postoperative pain levels at 1, 3, 5, and 7 d were evaluated. Data were analyzed statistically using the Kruskal-Walis, Mann-Whitney-U, one-way analysis of variance, and chi-square tests (p=0.05). Results: Continuous rotation resulted in more pain at Day 1 when compared with the reciprocating groups (360° CCW – 30° CW and 270° CCW – 30° C) (p<0.05). Conclusions: Continuous rotation resulted in more postoperative pain at Day 1 than in reciprocating groups, and thereafter no significant pain was found among the groups.

ABSTRACT

O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a resistência à fadiga cíclica flexural dos instrumentos de níquel- titânio, Hyflex CM (Coltène, EUA) e TF Adaptive (SybronEndo, EUA) em diferentes situações experimentais. Todas as limas que foram selecionadas possuíam conicidade 0,04 e diâmetro de ponta 35. Utilizou-se um dispositivo desenvolvido especificamente para realizar o ensaio flexural dinâmico. Os instrumentos TF Adaptive foram divididos em 3 grupos de acordo com o ângulo de curvatura do ensaio: 45º, 60º e 90º e cada grupo subdividido em 2 subgrupos de acordo com o tipo de movimento: rotação contínua e Adaptive. Cada subgrupo era composto por 15 instrumentos TF Adaptive, totalizando 90 instrumentos. Quinze instrumentos Hyflex CM formavam o grupo 4, no ensaio com ângulo de curvatura 90 graus e rotação contínua. A simulação foi realizada em canais artificiais de aço com ângulo de 45, 60, 90 graus e raio 5m m. O número de ciclos e o tempo em segundos até a fratura foram tabulados e analisados. Entretanto, a fadiga cíclica flexural foi significante maior nos três grupos em movimento Adaptive. E as limas TF Adaptive em seu próprio movimento tiveram maior número de ciclos e tempo até a fratura quando comparadas as Hyflex CM no ensaio de 90 graus. Portanto, conclui-se que o sistema Adaptive (limas TF Adaptive + movimento Adaptive) foi mais seguro à resistência á fadiga flexural, e no ensaio de 90 graus o sistema Adaptive foi mais resistente quando comparado com as limas Hyflex CM no movimento de rotação contínua.


The aim of this work to evaluate the cyclic fatigue resistance flexural the instruments of nickel-titanium, HyFlex CM (Coltène, USA) and TF Adaptive (SybronEndo, USA) in different experimental situations. All files that were selected had 0.04 taper and tip diameter 35. We used a device developed specifically to perform the dynamic flexural test. The TF Adaptive instruments were divided into 3 groups according to the angle of curvature of the test: 45, 60 and 90 and further divided in two subgroups according to the type of movement: continuous rotation and Adaptive. Each group consisted of 15 instruments TF Adaptive totaling 90 instruments. Fifteen HyFlex CM instruments formed the group 4 in the trial of bend angle 90 degrees and continuous rotation. The simulation was performed in artificial steel angled channels 45, 60, 90 degrees and radius 5m m. The number of cycles and the time in seconds until fracture were tabulated and analyzed. However, the cyclical flexural fatigue was significantly greater in the three groups Adaptive motion. And the TF Adaptive files on your own movement had a higher number of cycles and time to fracture when the HyFlex CM compared in 90-degree test. Therefore, it is concluded that the adaptive system (TF Adaptive Motion + Adaptive files) was safer resistance to flexural fatigue, and 90 degrees test Adaptive system is more resistant when compared with the HyFlex files into continuous.

ABSTRACT

The fracture of endodontic instruments is a common procedural error created during a root canal therapy. Starting from the hand files and up to the use of rotary systems, the root canal therapy is sometimes associated with the fracture of the instruments inside the root canal. The purpose of this work was to report a clinical case of removal of a fractured endodontic instrument in the root canal of a maxillary premolar, when part of this fragment extended through the apical foramen. In this case, a simple and a feasible chairside technique was used for the retrieval of the separated file tip.

ABSTRACT

The fracture of an endodontic instrument is an obstacle in completion of a routine successful pulp space therapy. Ni-Ti instruments corrode when in contact with sodium hypochlorite which leads to their deterioration and ultimately fracture during use. Removal of separated instrument from root canal is often a very difficult procedure. This procedure is more complicated when the instrument separated is closer to the mandibular canal. A case is presented in which a separated hand instrument was retrieved from the mesio buccal of a second molar approximating the mandibular canal root by replantation.

ABSTRACT

Introdução: a broca Gates Glidden, utilizada para o preparo das regiões cervical e média dos canais radiculares,apresenta um ponto frágil em sua haste, distante da ponta ativa, onde normalmente ocorre fratura, o que facilita sua remoção. Objetivo: apresentar um caso clínico de fraturada broca Gates Glidden próxima de sua ponta ativa, local incomum de fratura nesse instrumento. Caso clínico:paciente de 21 anos de idade foi submetido ao tratamento endodôntico do dente 37. Durante o preparo do terço cervical e médio dos canais, houve fratura da ponta ativada broca de Gates Glidden, ficando retida no terço médio do canal mesiovestibular. O fragmento fraturado foi removido através do uso do ultrassom CVDent 1000 coma ponta T0S-E1. A broca fraturada foi removida e o tratamento concluído com sucesso. Ao controle radiográfico de um ano, os tecidos periapicais apresentavam-se com aspecto de normalidade. Conclusão: de acordo com o presente caso clínico, pode-se dizer que as brocas Gates Glidden podem fraturar de forma incomum, o que dificulta muito sua remoção, por isso deve-se sempre respeitar sua dinâmica de uso

ABSTRACT

Introdução: A perda auditiva sensorial e irreversível induzida por ruído é a maior causa ocupacional evitável de perda auditiva no mundo. Os dentistas são profissionais da saúde expostos a ruídos provenientes dos equipamentos em seus consultórios e podem sofrer perdas auditivas. Objetivo: Medir intensidades de ruído emitidas pelos motores de alta rotação (mar) utilizados em consultórios odontológicos públicos e privados, verificar se são lesivas para a orelha humana e comparar os resultados obtidos entre estes serviços. Método: Estudo de série, prospectivo, com medidas das intensidades de ruído em dBNA com um decibelímetro Minipa MSL-1352C, USA em quatro consultórios odontológicos do serviço público e quatro particulares em Jundiaí-SP, inicialmente do ruído ambiental basal em cada consultório, durante cinco minutos e depois, do ruído emitido pelo motor de alta rotação(mar) em funcionamento durante cinco minutos para obter-se as médias. Resultados: Públicos: 1) basal=56,4dB; mar=77,2dB. 2) basal=61,7dB; mar=73,7dB. 3) basal=61,07dB; mar=75,04dB. 4) basal=63,6dB; mar=77,3dB. Particulares: 1) basal=60,7dB; mar=79,1dB. 2) basal=60,7dB; mar=83,1dB. 3)basal=58,4dB; mar=75,5dB. 4)basal=63dB; mar=76dB. Conclusões: As intensidades aferidas de ruído emitido por motores de alta rotação utilizados em consultórios odontológicos públicos e privados encontram-se abaixo dos limites nocivos à saúde auditiva. No serviço público, a intensidade de ruído basal é superior à dos consultórios particulares, contudo a dos motores de alta rotação é maior nos consultórios particulares.


Introduction: The sensorial hearing loss and irreversible noise induced is the major evitable occupational cause of hearing loss worldwide. The dentists are health professionals exposed to noises from equipment in their clinics and may suffer hearing losses. Objective: Measure the noise intensities emitted by the high rotation motors (mar) used in public and private dental clinics, check whether they are harmful for the human ear and compare the results obtained in such services. Method: Serial, retrospective study with measures of the noise intensities in dBNA with a decibelimeter Minipa MSL-1352C, USA, in four dental clinics of the public service and four private clinics in Jundiaí-SP, initially from the basal environment noise in each clinic, during five minutes and then from the noise emitted by the high rotation motor (mar) in operation during five minutes to obtain the averages. Results: Public clinics: 1)basal medium=56.4dB;mar=77.2dB. 2)basal medium=61.7dB;mar=73.7dB. 3)basal medium=61.07dB;mar=75.04dB. 4)basal medium=63.6dB;mar=77.3dB. Private clinics: 1)basal medium=60,7dB;mar=79,1dB. 2)basal=60,7dB;mar=83,1dB. 3)basal=58,4dB;mar=75,5dB. 4)basal=63dB;mar=76dB. Conclusion: The intensities measured of noise emitted by high rotation motors used in public and private dental clinics are below the limits harmful to the auditory health. In the public service, the basal medium noise intensity is higher than that of the private clinics, however the one of the high rotation motors is higher in the private clinics.

ABSTRACT

This study evaluated the increase of the instrumented area and dentin thickness in the mesial and distal aspects of mesial canals of mandibular molars after the use of Gates Glidden (GG), LA Axxess (LA) and Orifice Shaper (OS) instruments. A total of 53 canals from 27 mandibular molars were embedded in resin and divided into 3 groups. The roots were sectioned 3 mm below the cementoenamel junction and the images were captured before and after instrumentation. The increase of the instrumented area in terms of percentages and the remaining dentin thickness, in mm, at the mesial and furcal aspects were calculated using the Image tools software. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn's test. The significance level was set at 5 percent. All instruments promoted cervical flaring with different amounts of dentin removal at the mesial and distal aspects of the root canals. Statistically significant difference (p<0.05) was found between LA and all other instruments after using the first instrument. Regarding dentin thickness, no significant difference (p>0.05) was found between the mesial and distal walls in all groups. It may be concluded that LA 35.06 and GG 3 burs produced the thinnest dentin walls, and thus their use in mesial canals of mandibular molars should be done with caution.


Este estudo avaliou o aumento da área do canal e a espessura de dentina na parede mesial e distal dos canais mesiais de molares inferiores após o uso de Gates Glidden (GG), La Axxess (LA), Orifice Shaper (OS). Um total de 53 canais mesiais de 27 molares inferiores foram incluídos em resina e divididos em 3 grupos. As raízes foram seccionados 3 mm abaixo da junção cemento-esmalte e as imagens foram capturadas antes e depois da instrumentação. O aumento da área do canal em percentagem e a espessura da dentina remanescente nas paredes mesial e furca foram calculados utilizando o software Image Tools. Os dados foram analisados utilizando o Kruskal-Wallis e teste de Dunn. O Nível de significância foi de 5 por cento. Todos os instrumentos promoveram o aumento da área cervical, com diferentes quantidades de remoção da dentina nas paredes mesial e distal do canal radicular. Diferença estatística (p<0,05) foi encontrada entre LA e todos os outros instrumentos após o uso do primeiro instrumento. Quanto à espessura da dentina, não houve diferença significativa (p>0,05) entre as paredes mesial e distal de todos os instrumentos analisados. O LA 35.06 e GG 3 mostraram a menor espessura da parede e sua utilização em canais mesiais de molares inferiores deve ser feito com cuidado.

ABSTRACT

This study detected procedural errors created by rotary nickel-titanium (NiTi) instruments during root canal preparation by two imaging methods. Forty extracted human maxillary and mandibular molars were divided randomly into two groups and treated by two endodontists (n=10) and two undergraduate dental students (n=10). The ProTaper UniversalTM Rotary System was used to shape the canals and then they were filled using AH PlusTM sealer and gutta-percha. Periapical radiographs (PR) and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) images were obtained and two examiners, who evaluated them to verify the occurrence of procedural errors (fractured instruments, perforations, and canal transportation). The Chi-square test at 0.05 level of significance was used for statistical analyses. There were no significant differences (p>0.05) between the imaging methods. In the analysis of procedural errors, there was no significant difference (p>0.05) between the groups of operators (endodontists vs. students) nor between tooth groups (maxillary molars vs. mandibular molars). In view of the low incidence of procedural errors during root canal preparation performed by students the introduction of rotary NiTi instruments has potential in undergraduate teaching. PR and CBCT permitted the detection of procedural errors, but the CBCT images offer more recourse for diagnosis.


O objetivo deste estudo foi determinar erros de procedimentos ocorridos durante o preparo de canais radiculares após o uso de instrumentos de níquel-titânio (NiTi) acionados a motor, avaliados por dois métodos de exame por imagens. Quarenta molares humanos extraídos, superiores e inferiores, foram aleatoriamente divididos em dois grupos e tratados por dois especialistas em Endodontia (n=10) e dois estudantes de Odontologia (n=10). O sistema rotatório ProTaper UniversalTM foi usado para preparar os canais radiculares e, a seguir estes foram obturados com cimento AH PlusTM e guta percha. Radiografias periapicais (RP) e tomografia computadorizada de feixe cônico (TCFC) foram obtidas e avaliadas por dois examinadores para verificar a ocorrência de erros de procedimentos (instrumentos fraturados, perfurações e transporte apical). O teste do qui-quadrado com nível de significância de 0,05 foi usado para análise estatística. Frente a comparação dos métodos de exames por imagens não houve diferenças significantes (p>0,05). Na análise de erros de procedimentos (fraturas de instrumentos, perfurações e transportes apicais) não houve diferenças estatisticamente significantes nos níveis de operadores e nem entre grupos de dentes. Em vista da baixa incidência de erros de procedimentos durante o preparo de canais radiculares realizados por estudantes, a introdução de instrumentos de NiTi apresenta potencial no ensino da graduação. RP e TCFC permitiram detectar erros de procedimentos durante o preparo de canais radiculares, porém, a TCFC oferece maiores recursos para o diagnóstico.

ABSTRACT

This study compared the cytotoxicity of an experimental epoxy-resin and calcium hydroxide-based cement (MBPc), gray mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) and white mineral trioxide aggregate (WMTA) using the agar overlay method with neutral red dye. L929 cells were seeded into 6-well culture plates where 48-h set test materials were placed on the agar overlay, in triplicate. Teflon and natural rubber served as negative and positive controls. After an incubation period of 24 h at 37ºC in a humidified atmosphere of 5 percent CO2 in air, a discolored area around the samples and the positive controls could be observed and measured per quadrant. The mean values were compared and converted into grades to classify the results according to the table of cytotoxicity grades according to the Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) of the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation, Brazil. The nonviable cell areas and the morphological changes in the cells were observed with an inverted microscope. The results showed grade 1 (slight) for the two types of MTA (p>0.05) and grade 2 (mild) for the MBPc (p<0.001). All samples met the requirements of the test as none of the cultures showed reactivity higher than grade 2.


O objetivo deste estudo foi comparar a citotoxicidade de um cimento experimental à base de resina epóxica e hidróxido de cálcio (MBPc), do agregado trióxido mineral (MTA) cinza e do MTA branco, utilizando o ensaio de difusão em agar com o corante vermelho neutro. Células L929 foram semeadas em placas de 6 poços e sobre elas a camada de agar, onde foram colocados os materiais endurecidos por 48 h, em triplicata, além de teflon como controle negativo e látex como controle positivo. Após 24 h em estufa umidificada a 37ºC com 5 por cento CO2, um halo claro se formou ao redor das amostras e dos controles positivos. As medidas foram tomadas, por quadrante, e as médias foram comparadas e convertidas em graus para qualificar os resultados, de acordo com a tabela de grau de citotoxicidade do POP/FIOCRUZ. As zonas de inibição e as alterações da morfologia celular foram avaliadas sob microscópio invertido. Os resultados revelaram grau 1 (leve) para os dois tipos de MTA (p>0,05) e grau 2 (branda) para o MBPc (p<0,001). Todas as amostras foram consideradas satisfatórias, pois nenhuma cultura exposta aos cimentos revelou toxicidade superior ao grau 2.

ABSTRACT

The aim of this study was to evaluate the root surface defect produced by hand curettes and ultrasonic tips with different power settings. Forty root surfaces were divided into 4 groups according the treatment: Gracey curettes, ultrasonic scaler at 10 percent power, ultrasonic scaler at 50 percent power and ultrasonic scaler at 100 percent power. Each specimen was instrumented with 15 strokes and the and divided in the middle to evaluate: (1) the defect depth produced by the instrumentation and (2) contact area of the instrument tips, which was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy. ANOVA and Tukey's test were used for statistical analysis (a=0.05). The results (mean ± SD) of the contact area showed significantly greater defects (p<0.05) for the hand instrumented groups (2092.9 ± 482) compared to the ultrasonic groups (606.8 ± 283.0; 858.6 ± 422.5; 1212.0 ± 366.7, respectively), independently of the power setting. The values for the defect depth on root surface showed no statistically significant difference (p<0.05) between hand instrumentation (66.1 ± 34.0) and ultrasonic scaling at 10 percent, 50 percent or 100 percent power settings (52.4 ± 22.1; 72.0 ± 29.9; 77.7 ± 37.7, respectively). The findings of this study demonstrate that ultrasonic instrumentation produced a similar defect depth to that of hand instrumentation, with a smaller tip contact area, independently of the power setting used for scaling.

Quarenta superfícies radiculares foram divididas de acordo com o tratamento em 4 grupos: a) Curetas Gracey; b) Instrumento ultra-sônico a 10 por cento; c) Instrumento ultra-sônico a 50 por cento; d) Instrumento ultra-sônico a 100 por cento. Cada amostra recebeu 15 movimentos de raspagem e foram divididas ao meio para avaliar: (1) a profundidade do defeito produzido pela instrumentação e (2) a área de contato do instrumento com a superfície. Todas as superfícies foram então avaliadas com o uso de Microscopia Eletrônica de Varredura. Para a análise estatística foi utilizado o teste Tukey/ANOVA. Os resultados (média ± DP) encontrados para a área de contato foram significantemente maiores para a instrumentação manual (2092,9 ± 482,0) que para os instrumentos ultra-sônicos, independentemente da potência utilizada (606,8 ± 283,0; 858,6 ± 422,5; 1212,0 ± 366,7, respectivamente). Os valores para a profundidade do defeito demonstraram numericamente, mas não estatisticamente, diferenças entre a instrumentação manual (66,1 ± 34,0) e ultra-sônica em 10 por cento, 50 por cento ou 100 por cento de potência (52,4 ± 22,1; 72,0 ± 29,9; 77,7 ± 37,7, respectivamente). Os resultados encontrados demonstraram que a instrumentação ultra-sônica produziu defeitos com profundidade similar aos produzidos pela instrumentação manual, com um menor contato do instrumento, independente da potência utilizada.

ABSTRACT

The aim of this study was to compare the peripheral bone damage induced by different cutting systems. Four devices were tested: Er:YAG laser (2.94 mm), Piezosurgery, high-speed drill and low-speed drill. Forty-five bone sections, divided into 9 groups according to different parameters, were taken from pig mandibles within 1 h post mortem. Specimens were fixed in 10 percent buffered formalin, decalcified and cut in thin sections. Four different parameters were analyzed: cut precision, depth of incision, peripheral carbonization and presence of bone fragments. For statistical analysis, the Kruskal-Wallis test was applied to assess equality of sample medians among groups. All sections obtained with the Er:YAG laser showed poor peripheral carbonization. The edges of the incisions were always well-shaped and regular, no melting was observed. Piezosurgery specimens revealed superficial incisions without thermal damage but with irregular edges. The sections obtained by traditional drilling showed poor peripheral carbonization, especially if obtained at lower speed. There was statistically significant differences (p<0.01) among the cutting systems for all analyzed parameters. Er:YAG laser, gave poor peripheral carbonization, and may be considered an effective method in oral bone biopsies and permits to obtain clear and readable tissue specimens.


O objetivo deste estudo foi comparar o dano ósseo periférico produzido por diversos sistemas de corte. Foram avaliados 4 dispositivos: laser Er:YAG (2,94 mm), Piezo-cirurgia, broca em alta rotação e broca em baixa rotação. Para isto, foram utilizadas 45 seções ósseas retiradas de mandíbulas de suínos, até 1 h post-mortem, divididas em 9 grupos de acordo com diversos parâmetros. As amostras foram fixadas em formalina a 10 por cento tamponada, descalcificadas e cortadas em lâminas finas. Foram analisados 4 parâmetros diferentes: a precisão do corte, a profundidade da incisão, a carbonização periférica e presença de fragmentos ósseos. A análise estatística empregou o teste de Kruskal-Wallis para avaliar a similaridade das medianas entre os grupos. Todas as seções feitas com o laser Er:YAG exibiram pouca carbonização. As margens das incisões foram todas bem acabadas e regulares, sem apresentar pontos de fusão. As amostras obtidas por piezo-cirurgia apresentaram incisões superficiais sem danos térmicos, mas com margens irregulares. As seções obtidas pelas brocas convencionais apresentaram pouca carbonização marginal, particularmente as feitas em baixa rotação. Foram observadas diferenças estatisticamente significantes (p<0,01) entre todos os sistemas de corte para cada um dos parâmetros analisados. O laser Er:YAG apresentou pouca carbonização e pode ser considerado como um método eficaz para biópsias de ossos bucais, produzindo amostras de tecido limpas e fáceis de analisar.

ABSTRACT

Este articulo corresponde a un caso clínico donde se produjo la fractura de un usual instrumento utilizado en una pieza dentaria que se le estaba realizando un tratamiento endodóntico, una fresa Gate Glidden nº1; pero la extracción de este tipo de instrumento hoy en día se hace dificultoso y además se realiza con instrumental de alto costo, pero en este caso clínico utilizamos materiales de bajo valor y mucho ingenio pudiendo realizar el retiro del instrumento que obviamente podría ser usado en cualquier servicio publico donde los recursos son muy limitados y muchas veces austeros.


This article presents to a clinical case where the fracture of a Gate Glidden drill # 1 ocurred during endodontic therapy. Extraction of this type of instrument nowadays is difficult in addition is performed by instruments expensive, but in this clinical case we used materials of low value, and very innovative, being able to extract the instrument. This obviously could be used in any public service where the resources are very limited and often austere.

ABSTRACT

The aim of this study was to evaluate the remaining dentine/cementum thickness using Gates-Glidden burs in serial and crown-down sequences and to observe which of the two sequences is the safest for preparing mesial roots of molars. Thirty-six left and right human mandibular first molars were selected. Standard access cavities were made and initially explored with Flexofiles sizes 10 and 15 until the tip was visible at the apex. The teeth were embedded in a muffle specially developed for this study using a PVC tube with two parallel metal rods in its lid. Each tooth-block was sectioned 3 mm apically to the furcation using a low-speed saw with a diamond disc. The tooth-block was examined under a microscope and an initial image was captured by a digital video system with 8 X and 12 X magnifications. Finally, the tooth-blocks were reassembled in the muffle so that the canals could be instrumented. After instrumentation the area of each mesial canal as well as the smallest distance to the root furcation were measured again. The mesio-buccal canals (crown-down order) and the mesio-lingual canals (serial sequence) presented an average area of 0.46 ± 0.16 mm² and 0.88 ± 0.27 mm² (P < 0.01), respectively. The mean values of the smallest distance to the furcation for the mesio-buccal and mesio-lingual canals were 0.66 ± 0.19 mm and 0.39 ± 0.13 mm (P < 0.01), respectively. The remaining dentine/cementum thickness using Gates-Glidden burs was greater in the crown-down sequence than in the serial sequence.

ABSTRACT

In oral surgery, the quality of bone repair may be influenced by several factors that can increase the morbidity of the procedure. The type of equipment used for ostectomy can directly affect bone healing. The aim of this study was to evaluate bone repair of mandible bone defects prepared in rabbits using three different rotary devices. Fifteen New Zealand rabbits were randomly assigned to 3 groups (n=5) according to type of rotary device used to create bone defects: I - pneumatic low-speed rotation engine, II - pneumatic high-speed rotation engine, and III - electric low-speed rotation engine. The anatomic pieces were surgically obtained after 2, 7 and 30 days and submitted to histological and morphometric analysis. The morphometric results were expressed as the total area of bone remodeling matrix using an image analysis system. Increases in the bone remodeling matrix were noticed with time along the course of the experiment. No statistically significant differences (p>0.05) were observed among the groups at the three sacrificing time points considering the total area of bone mineralized matrix, although the histological analysis showed a slightly advanced bone repair in group III compared to the other two groups. The findings of the present study suggest that the type of rotary device used in oral and maxillofacial surgery does not interfere with the bone repair process.


A ostectomia é uma manobra cirúrgica fundamental que pode afetar a reparação tecidual de modo a aumentar a morbidade do procedimento. O tipo de equipamento e/ou instrumental utilizado para a ostectomia pode influenciar diretamente no reparo ósseo. O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar o processo de reparação óssea em defeitos realizados em mandíbula de coelho com três diferentes equipamentos. Quinze coelhos foram aleatoriamente divididos em 3 grupos (n=5) de acordo com o equipamento usado para preparacão de 3 cavidades ósseas com brocas padronizadas: I) motor de baixa rotação pneumático, II) motor de alta rotação pneumático e III) motor de baixa rotação elétrico, todos com refrigeração constante. Após os períodos experimentais de 2, 7e 30 dias, as peças anatômicas foram removidas e submetidas a análises microscópica e histomorfométrica. Não houve diferença estatisticamente significante (p>0,05) entre os grupos nos 3 períodos experimentais, considerando-se a área total de matriz óssea mineralizada, embora a análise microscópica tenha revelado uma tendência a um processo de reparação óssea um pouco mais adiantado no grupo III, quando comparado aos demais grupos. Os resultados deste estudo sugerem que o tipo de equipamento rotatório utilizado em cirurgia bucomaxilofacial não interfere no reparo ósseo.
