Résumé
Surgeries performed in retained third molars occur in the contaminated field, bringing post-operative problems such as pain, bleeding, discomfort, swelling, infection, trismus, and inactive days. This study evaluated the differences between conventional medication and topical doxycycline in third molar surgery. Twenty-eight patients were selected requiring removal of four third molar. Half of the mouth was randomly selected to undergo surgery with the use of conventional medication (analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial) and after 25-30 days, the other half of the mouth was subjected to surgery using doxycycline delivered through gel nanotubes. The results showed that in both treatments there was no clinical infection. The other evaluations were significantly lower in relation to pain, bleeding, edema, inactive days, trismus, and discomfort when compared with conventional therapy.
Résumé
O cisto do ducto nasopalatino é o de maior frequência na classifcação dos cistos de origem não odontogênica. O seu desenvolvimento pode promover alterações estéticas e comprometer estruturas que compõem a região nasopalatina. Este trabalho tem como objetivo relatar um caso clínico de cisto do ducto nasopalatino, em cuja conduta realizou-se marsupialização seguida de enucleação como tratamento cirúrgico desta lesão. Ressaltam-se também as dificuldades de diagnóstico do cisto do ducto nasopalatino e a conduta terapêutica preconizada para a sua resolução.
The nasopalatine duct cyst (NPDC) is considere to be the most frequent of the nonodontogenic cysts. Its development can cause aesthetic alterations and compromise the structures composing the nasopalatine region. This work aimed to report a clinical case of the nasopalatine duct, in which marsupialization was used, followed by enucleation as a surgical treatment for this lesion, with emphasis on the diagnosis diffculties experienced and the therapeutic conduct proclaimed for its resolution.
