ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Determinar la relación entre el contorno facial, la forma de los arcos dentarios y la morfología de los incisivos centrales superiores en estudiantes de odon-tología de la Universidad del Valle. Materiales y métodos: Estudio observa-cional de tipo descriptivo que determinó la relación entre el contorno facial, los arcos dentarios y los incisivos centrales superio-res a través de fotografías digitales de 48 estudiantes (24 mujeres y 24 hombres) de odontología de la Universidad del Valle pertenecientes al grupo étnico mestizo pre-dominantemente caucasoide. Se utilizó el coeficiente de contingencia para establecer la posible asociación entre la forma de la cara con la del arco y la de los dientes. Una p<0.05 fue considerada estadísticamente significativa.Resultados: La forma ovalada fue la más frecuente para el contorno facial (50%), para el arco dentario superior (77,1%) e inferior (85,4%) y para el incisivo central superior derecho (41,7%). Según el géne-ro, el contorno facial presentó diferencias significativas, dado que en mujeres fue más prevalente la forma redonda (29,2%) mien-tras que en hombres fue la forma cuadrada (37,5%); sin embargo la forma ovalada se presentó en la mayoría de casos en ambos géneros.Conclusiones: La forma ovalada fue la más frecuente del contorno facial, de los arcos dentarios y de los incisivos centrales superiores. No fue posible predeterminar la forma de los incisivos centrales superiores permanentes a partir del contorno facial y de la forma de los arcos...(AU)


Objective: To determine the relationship if any between the facial contour, the form of the dental arches and the morphology of the upper central incisors in dental students of the University del Valle.Methods: This is an observational des-criptive study that determined the relation between the facial contour, the dental arches and the upper central incisors shapes through digital photographs in 48 dental students (24 women and 24 men) at University del Valle belonging to a mixed ethnic group predominantly Caucasoid. The coefficient of contingency was used to esta-blish the possible association between the forms of the face, the dental arches and the central incisors. A p<0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results: The oval form was the most frequent facial contour (50%), including the upper (77,1%) and lower dental arch (85,4%) and the upper right central incisor (41,7%) were also prevalent. By gender, the facial contour presented significant differences, given that in women was more prevalent the round shape (29,2%) while in men it was the square form (37,5%); ne-vertheless the oval form was present in the majority of cases in both male and female.Conclusions: The oval form was the most frequent facial contour, dental arches and the upper central incisors form. It was not possible to determine the form of the permanent upper central incisors using the facial contour type or the form of the dental arches...(AU)

ABSTRACT

Em cidades portuárias, o fluxo de embarcações internacionais traz consigo uma demanda importante por tratamento odontológico de seus tripulantes. Aspectos como cultura, diferenças de idioma, tempo de estadia em terra e legislações nacional e internacional podem trazer diferenças significativas no relacionamento entre cirurgião-dentista e paciente, assim como ao tratamento odontológico como um todo. Procurou-se verificar como os cirurgiões-dentistas situados numa cidade litorânea (Santos-SP) se comunicam com pacientes aquaviários estrangeiros, quais são as características clínicas e documentais deste tratamento odontológico e como são feitos a cobrança e recebimento de honorários profissionais. Foram aplicados aleatoriamente 200 questionários a cirurgiões-dentistas da cidade, com perguntas sobre seu perfil profissional, a atuação ou não no atendimento a aquaviários estrangeiros, métodos de documentação odontológica e cobrança e recebimento de honorários profissionais. Constatou-se que os cirurgiões-dentistas que atendem aquaviários estrangeiros são jovens em sua maioria, dominam idiomas estrangeiros, embora produzam prontuários incompletos, e assistem principalmente quadros emergenciais de dor, considerando este tipo de atendimento financeiramente vantajoso. Concluiu-se que é necessária a produção de prontuários mais adequados por parte dos profissionais questionados, bem como observar a legislação nacional e internacional para assegurar uma prática odontológica efi- caz e segura. O atendimento a aquaviários estrangeiros, denominado odontologia marítima, apresenta- se como uma boa oportunidade de trabalho para cirurgiões-dentistas recém formados.


In port cities, the flow of international vessels carries a significant demand for dental treatment of their crew. Aspects such as culture, language differences, length of stay on land and national and inter- national legislation can bring significant differences in the relationship between dentist and patient, as well as in the dental treatment as a whole. lt was sought to determine how dentists located in a seaside town (Santos-SP) communicate with foreign seafarer patients, what are the c1inical and documental features of this kind of dental treatment and how collecting and receiving professional fees is done. Two-hundred questionnaires were randomly applied to the dentists of the city with questions about their professional profile, their acting (or not) on treating foreign seaferers, methods of dental records and billing and receiving professional fees. It was found that the dentists who treat foreign seaferers have knowledge of foreign languages, produce incomplete dental records, and mostly assist emergency situations, considering this type of care financially advantageous. It was concluded that it is necessary to produce most appropriate dental records , and to observe the national and international legislation to ensure an effective and safe dental practice. The treatment of foreign seaferers, named "maritime Dentistry", presents itself as a good opportunity of work for newly graduated dentists.
