RESUMO
The choice of retaining material that will replace the lost properties of the tooth, in which it is fragile and with loss of dentin structure, is important. The success of the treatment will depend on the qualities presented in it. Therefore, the objective of this work, through a literature review, is to present the advantages and disadvantages observed in the use of fiberglass post intraradicular retainer. This paper reviews the most relevant articles on the specificities presented in the fiberglass post retaining material, published in the period (2003 to 2020). The bibliographic search was performed in PubMed, Lilacs, Scielo, Google Scholar databases. In view of the selected articles on the subject, it is possible to observe the authors' acceptance of the application of the use of retainers, highlighting that in the treatment of cases with extensive coronary destruction, the aim is to have the functional and retentive capacity returned, in addition to the tension resistance. Therefore, theThe use of fiberglass posts in weakened teeth is effective as the material of choice. In cases that require reconstruction and return of tissue integrity, it has sufficient advantages for its selection. Despite the disadvantages it has, these do not outweigh the benefits to the point of making its use unfeasible. However, knowing when, where and how to treat is always important in any procedure for a satisfactory final outcome.
A escolha do material retentor que irá substituir as propriedades perdidas do dente, no qual este se apresenta de forma fragilizada e com perca de estrutura dentinária é importante. O sucesso do tratamento irá depender das qualidades apresentadas no mesmo. Sendo assim, o objetivo deste trabalho por meio de uma revisão de literatura é apresentar as vantagens e desvantagens observadas no uso do retentor intrarradicular de pino de fibra de vidro. Este trabalho revisa os artigos mais relevantes sobre as especificidades apresentadas no material retentor de pino de fibra de vidro, publicadas no período (2003 até 2020). A busca bibliográfica foi realizada nos bancos de dados PubMed, Lilacs, Scielo, Google Scholar. Diante dos artigos selecionados referentes ao tema, pode-se observar a aceitação dos autores sobre a aplicação do uso de retentores, destacando-se que no tratamento de casos com destruição coronária extensa o intuito é dispor da devolução da capacidade funcional, retentiva, além da resistência a tensão. Portanto, a utilização de pinos de fibra de vidro em dentes fragilizados apresenta efetividade como material de escolha. Em casos que necessitam de reconstrução e devolução de sua integridade tecidual, possui consigo vantagens suficientes para sua seleção. Apesar das desvantagens que possui, essas não se sobrepõem aos benefícios a ponto de tornarem inviáveis ao seu uso. Entretanto, saber quando, onde e como tratar é sempre importante em qualquer procedimento para um desfecho final satisfatório.

Abstract A multicenter, randomized controlled clinical trial evaluated the effectiveness of two treatments for deep caries lesions in permanent molars - selective caries removal (SCR) to soft dentin with restoration in a single visit, and stepwise excavation (SW) - regarding pulp vitality for a 5-year follow-up period. The present study aimed to determine the cost-effectiveness of these treatments. Treatments were conducted in two Brazilian cities (Brasília and Porto Alegre). At baseline, 299 permanent molars (233 patients) were treated and 229 teeth (174 patients) were evaluated after 5 years. The discounted cash flow method was adopted. The total cost of each treatment was calculated, and the failure cost (endodontic treatment + restoration) was added to the final cost, according to the 5-year failure rates of each therapy (20% for SCR and 44% for SW). A public health service unit composed of three dentists in 4-hour work shifts was used to calculate the monetary value of the treatments, assuming a total of 528 treatments/month. Considering the 229 teeth evaluated after 5 years (115 SCR and 114 SW), SCR provided savings of 43% (amalgam) and 41% (resin composite) per treatment, compared to SW. The SCR technique provides benefits for public finances (direct economy) and for public health services (increase in the number of treatments performed). Considering that maximizing profit and reducing costs are powerful motivating factors for adopting a certain treatment, this study provides data to better support the decision-making process, regarding the management of deep caries lesions in permanent molars.
RESUMO
ABSTRACT The CAD/CAM technology arose from the need to develop materials with better mechanical and optical properties that could be used for making monolithic restorations. Several materials have been used for milling indirect restorations in prefabricated blocks. Among them, lithium silicate reinforced with zirconia. Due to its recent introduction in the market, this case report aimed to present a detailed clinical protocol for the execution of a ceramic onlay of this material using CAD/CAM technology. A 57-year-old female patient sought care with extensive restoration in composite resin (BOMD) of tooth 15 maintained for almost two years. However, due to bruxism, constant dental tightening, the extension of the direct restoration and the need for improved esthetics, it was proposed to replace it with an indirect ceramic onlay restoration. Prophylaxis and choice of the color of the patient's dental substrate were performed. Afterwards, the dental preparation was made and polished. Subsequently, the molding was made with addition silicone and the provisional restoration confectioned. Once the stone model was obtained, it was scanned and the ceramic onlay restoration was milled using CAD/CAM technology. Finally, the restoration was stained and cemented over the preparation. After 2 years, the restoration remained stable, with no evidence of color mismatch, marginal discoloration, marginal cleft, caries or fracture, proving the effectiveness of the treatment in this time interval. The correct indication of the ceramic material combined with the use of CAD/CAM technology facilitated the restorative process, restoring function and the esthetics desired by the patient.
RESUMO A tecnologia CAD/CAM surgiu da necessidade de desenvolvimento de materiais com melhores propriedades mecânicas e ópticas que pudessem ser utilizados para confecção de restaurações monolíticas. Diversos materiais têm sido utilizados para fresagem de restaurações indiretas em blocos pré-fabricados. Dentre eles, o silicato de lítio reforçado com zircônia. Devido a sua recente introdução no mercado, este relato de caso objetivou apresentar um protocolo clínico detalhado para a execução de uma onlay cerâmica desse material utilizando a tecnologia CAD/CAM. Paciente, 57 anos, sexo feminino, procurou atendimento com extensa restauração em resina composta envolvendo as faces (MODV) do dente 15 mantida por quase dois anos. Contudo, em virtude do bruxismo, do apertamento dental constante, da extensão da restauração direta e da necessidade de melhora na estética, foi proposto a substituição por uma restauração indireta em cerâmica do tipo onlay. Foi realizada a profilaxia e escolha da cor do substrato dental da paciente. Em seguida o preparo dental foi confeccionado e polido. Posteriormente foi feita a moldagem com silicone de adição e a confecção do provisório. Com a obtenção do modelo, este foi escaneado e fresada a onlay cerâmica pela tecnologia CAD/CAM, que posteriormente foi maquiada e cimentada sobre o preparo. Após 2 anos, a restauração permaneceu estável, sem evidência de incompatibilidade de cor, descoloração marginal, fenda marginal, cárie ou fratura, comprovando a eficácia do tratamento neste intervalo de tempo. A correta indicação do material cerâmico aliada ao uso da tecnologia CAD-CAM facilitou o processo restaurador devolvendo função e a estética desejada pela paciente.
RESUMO
Abstract This study evaluated the background and effect of surrounding colors on the color blending of a single-shade composite used in a thin layer. Disc-shaped specimens (1.0 mm thickness) were built with the Vittra APS Unique composite surrounded (dual specimens) or not surrounded (simple specimens) by a control composite (shade A1, A2, or A3). Simple specimens were also built with only control composites. The specimen color was measured against white and black backgrounds with a spectrophotometer (CIELAB system). The whiteness index for dentistry (WID) was calculated for simple specimens. Differences (ΔE00) in color and translucency parameters (ΔTP00) between the simple/dual specimens and the controls were calculated. The translucency adjustment potential (TAP) and color adjustment potential (CAP) were estimated based on the ratios between data from simple and dual specimens. The Vittra APS Unique composite showed higher WID values than the controls. No differences between ΔTP00_SIMPLE and ΔTP00_DUAL were observed for any of the shades. The composite shade did not affect TAP values. The lowest values of ΔE00_SIMPLE and ΔE00_DUAL were observed for shade A1 regardless of the background color. For the white background, ΔE00_SIMPLE values did not differ from those of ΔE00_DUAL for all shades. Only A1 showed ΔE00_DUAL values lower than ΔE00_SIMPLE when the black background was used. The highest modulus of CAP (negative values for the white background) was observed when shade A1 surrounded the Vittra APS Unique composite. The color blending ability of the single-shade resin composite used in a thin layer was affected by both the surrounding shade and background color.
RESUMO
Aim: Although bulk fill composites have been widely used as restorative material, there is no consensus regarding the best clinical protocol in terms of composite technique and adhesive system. Therefore, this clinical trial evaluated the clinical performance of bulk fill composites for class I restorations under different protocols. Methods: A randomized clinical trial including 155 class I restorations was conducted using different adhesive systems: conventional technique (phosphoric acid + conventional three-step adhesive system) (Group 1, 2 and 3); or self-etching adhesive system (Groups 4, 5 and 6). Control groups 1 and 4 were restored with conventional composite; groups 2 and 5 with low viscosity bulk fill and conventional composite as occlusal coverage; groups 3 and 6 with high viscosity bulk fill. The FDI criteria was used for clinical evaluation at baseline and after 6 months. Results: All groups showed good clinical performance. At baseline, the adhesive system did not affect postoperative hypersensitivity. After 6 months, group 5 showed a significant reduction in color and translucency; group 6 a reduction in terms of anatomical form and for postoperative sensitivity and an improvement in patient satisfaction (p<0.05). Considering the same restorative technique, the use of the self-etching adhesive system showed a significant decrease in color and translucency (p<0.05). Conclusion: All groups showed favorable clinical performance, and promising results were found for the conventional adhesive system and high viscosity bulk fill protocol

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the decision-making by patients to replace temporary restorations with permanent restorations after endodontic treatment and to verify the associated factors and evaluate the quality/integrity of the temporary restorative material within one month. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study using non-probabilistic sampling which analyzed patients after one month of endodontic treatment. The self-administered questionnaire contained sociodemographic, treatment decision-making and endodontic treatment questions. The restoration present in the mouth was evaluated in the clinical oral examination. The Poisson Regression test was used to verify the prevalence ratio. Results: The prevalence failure to perform permanent restorations was 61.1% of patients, and 42.7% reported not having adhered. The reasons are lack of time and not knowing the importance of replacing the restoration with a definitive one. The glass ionomer temporary restorative frequency was higher among those who chose not to replace the temporary restoration with a permanent one (PR=5.19; 95%CI 2.10-12.33). In addition, there was an association between the quality of the restorative material and the type of material, and the best clinical quality of the restoration was statistically associated with glass ionomer and composite resin. Conclusions: The findings show the importance of guidance by the dental surgeon in helping patients decide to replace their temporary restoration

Aim: A retrospective, cross-sectional study was carried out to evaluate the performance of resin composite restorations placed by undergraduate dental students with 1 to 15 years of placement based on dental records. Methods: Four calibrated operators evaluated 498 restorations (anterior and posterior) of 120 patients according to Ryge's validated criteria (USPHS). Results: The criteria that showed the smallest changes between the types of failures were color matching, marginal discoloration and surface texture. Regarding the longevity, the surface texture showed an increase in the frequency of failures from the second time interval (3.1 to 6 years). Higher prevalence of failure was found in class II and III restorations, with secondary caries being the main reason. No significant differences were found for anatomic form, marginal adaptation, and color matching. Class V restorations showed a higher fracture rate with total displacement of the restoration, with no increase in the frequency of fracture over time. Conclusion: High rate of restoration failure was observed, possibly due to the lack of experience and skills of the students. This outcome highlight the need for continuous revision and improvements of teaching practice regarding the development of clinical competences and skills by dental students

Abstract Objective: To evaluate the microleakage at the junction between amalgam-composite resin restorations using different bonding systems. Material and Methods: In this in-vitro study, standard class II cavities were prepared on 40 human maxillary premolars. The axial and gingival floor depths of the cavities were 2 mm and 1 mm below (cementoenamel junction), respectively. The samples were divided into 4 groups (n = 10). In all groups, a layer of 1-mm thick amalgam was used as a coating for the initial part of the gingival floor. In group 1, no bonding system was used for amalgam restoration. In group 2, G-Premio Bond was applied. G-Premio bond + alloy primer and single bond + alloy primer were used in group 3 and group 4, respectively. The rest of the cavities in all groups were then repaired using FiltekZ250 composite. The samples were thermocycled at 500 rpm and immersed in 1% methylene blue solution for 24 hours to allow dye penetration. Once cut, the samples were placed under a stereomicroscope (40X) to determine the microleakage rate. Data analysis was carried out using post-hoc and Chi-square tests (p<0.05). Results: The highest and lowest microleakage rate was related to groups 1 and 3, respectively. There was a significant difference between groups (1,2) and (1,3), and (1,4), and groups (2,3) (p<0.05). Conclusion: The use of alloy primer and bonding could reduce the microleakage between the two restorations (AU).

Este estudo avaliou a cor de duas resinas compostas universais produzidas por diferentes fabricantes. Noventa e seis espécimes das resinas compostas Filtek Z350XT (3M ESPE) e IPS Empress Direct (Ivoclar Vivadent) (n=48 cada) da cor A2E foram confeccionados com 5 mm de diâmetro X 6 mm de altura. Cada camada de 2 mm de espessura de resina inserida foi fotoativada com uma unidade fotoativadora LED com 900 mW/cm2 por 20 s. Os espécimes foram polidos com o sistema Sof-lex Pop-On (3M ESPE). A cor foi aferida com um espectrofotômetro digital portátil Easyshade (Vita Zahnfabrik, Bad SaÌckingen), com base nos eixos tridimensionais do sistema CIEL*a*b*, e sua diferença entre as resinas foi determinada em cada eixo, calculando o seu respectivo Δ (ΔL*, Δa* e Δb*) e os parâmetros de variação total de cor ΔE* e ΔE00. A diferença de cor entre as resinas em cada eixo foi analisada estatisticamente pelo Teste t de amostras independentes (α=0,05), além de considerar os limiares de 50%:50% de perceptibilidade e aceitabilidade da variação total de cor. Diferenças estatisticamente significativas foram observadas no ΔL* e no Δb* (p<0,001). Os valores de ΔE foram de três a quatro vezes superiores ao limite de perceptibilidade e em até duas vezes ao limite de aceitabilidade da variação total de cor. Verificou-se que diferenças importantes de cor podem ocorrer em resinas da mesma cor, porém, de fabricantes diferentes. Essas diferenças podem ser visualmente perceptíveis e acima dos limites de aceitabilidade, podendo comprometer o resultado estético da restauração.(AU)
This study assessed the color of two universal composites produced by different manufacturers. Ninety-six specimens of Filtek Z350XT (3M ESPE) and IPS Empress Direct (Ivoclar Vivadent) (n=48 each) colored A2E were made with 5 mm of diameter X 6 mm of height. Each 2 mm-thick composite layer inserted was light cured with a LED light curing unit with 900 mW/cm2 for 20 s. The specimens were polished with Sof-lex Pop-On (3M ESPE). The color was measured with a portable digital spectrophotometer Easyshade (Vita Zahnfabrik, Bad SaÌckingen) based on the tridimensional axes of the CIEL*a*b* system, and the difference between composites was determined in each axis by determining the respective Δs (ΔL*, Δa* e Δb*), along with the parameters for total color variation ΔE* and ΔE00. The color difference between composite in each axis was analyzed statistically using the t-test (α=0,05), besides considering the 50%:50% thresholds for visual perceptibility and acceptability of total color variation. Statistically significant differences were observed in ΔL* and Δb* (p<0.001). The ΔE values were three to four times higher than the perceptibility threshold and twice higher than the acceptability threshold for total color variation. Relevant color differences may occur in composites of the same color, yet, made by different manufacturers. These differences may be visually perceptible and higher than acceptance limits, and may compromise the esthetic result of dental restorations.(AU)

Objective: To determine, by means of a systematic review and meta-analysis, the clinical effectiveness of pre-treatment with chlorhexidine (CHX) in adhesive dental restorations. Material and Methods: A literature search was conducted until February 2020, in the biomedical databases: Pubmed, Embase, Scielo, Science Direct, Scopus, SIGLE, LILACS, Google Scholar and the Cochrane Central Registry of Clinical Trials. The selection criteria of the studies were defined, which were: randomized and controlled clinical trials, without language and time restrictions, and reporting the clinical effects (retention, marginal discoloration, marginal adaptation, postoperative sensitivity and secondary caries) of pre-CHX treatment in adhesive dental restorations. Study risk of bias was analyzed using the Cochrane Handbook of Systematic Reviews of Interventions. Results:The search strategy resulted in six articles of which five entered a meta-analysis. The studies reported that there was no difference in retention, marginal discoloration, marginal adaptation, postoperative sensitivity, and secondary caries from pre-treatment with CHX in adhesive dental restorations. Conclusion: The reviewed literature suggests that pretreatment with CHX does not influence the clinical effectiveness in adhesive dental restorations.
Resumen: Antecedentes: la pandemia de COVID-19 ha desatado un ataque sin precedentes contra la humanidad en todo el mundo. El escenario en Bangladesh empeora día a día, y todos los aspectos de la sociedad están observando su impacto. Los profesionales de la salud corren un mayor riesgo de contraer la enfermedad mientras atienden a los pacientes. Objetivo: El objetivo de la investigación es explorar el conocimiento, la conciencia y las prácticas de los dentistas registrados con respecto a la epidemiología y transmisión de COVID-19 durante el rápido brote de este virus altamente contagioso en Bangladesh. Material y Métodos: Se realizó una encuesta transversal basada en la web entre los dentistas inscritos con su número de registro único válido del Consejo Médico y Dental de Bangladesh (BMDC). Se distribuyó un cuestionario estructurado entre los dentistas a través de diferentes plataformas de redes sociales. Un total de 184 dentistas participaron en la encuesta entre marzo y abril de 2020. Se realizó tanto análisis descriptivo como análisis de regresión logística multivariable. Resultados: La edad media de los odontólogos fue de 31,75 años, con una desviación estándar de 6,5 años. Aproximadamente el 29,3% de los dentistas habían completado su título de posgrado y el 76% de ellos se dedicaba a la práctica privada en el momento de la recopilación de datos. En comparación con los dentistas con educación universitaria, los dentistas con educación de posgrado tienen tres veces (OR = 3,1, IC del 95%: 1,2 - 7,9 y más de 5 veces (OR = 5,3, IC del 95%: 1,2 - 23,3) más probabilidades de tener) mejores conocimientos y prácticas hacia COVID-19 respectivamente. Los dentistas de 26 a 30 años tienen menos probabilidades de tener buenas prácticas que los dentistas más jóvenes (OR: .1; IC del 95%: .01 - .5). Sin embargo, los dentistas con menos de cinco años de experiencia tienen 10,3 (1,6 - 68,9) veces más probabilidades de tener buenas prácticas en comparación con los dentistas con más experiencia. Conclusión: La mayoría de los dentistas de Bangladesh han demostrado un buen conocimiento, conciencia y práctica con respecto a COVID-19. Recomendamos que las autoridades sanitarias, las organizaciones profesionales y los hospitales coordinen y lleven a cabo una formación avanzada obligatoria sobre enfermedades infecciosas para todos los dentistas en ejercicio del país.

Background: Atraumatic restorative treatment (ART) and chemomechanical removal of dental caries have been shown to be safe and effective restorative procedures. However, current literature lacks well-design studies comparing the pain perceived by infants using ART and chemo-mechanical removal techniques. Aims: To compare pain perception of children of two techniques (ART vs. chemomechanical removal) of restorative treatments for dental caries removal. Settings and Design: A randomized clinical trial with two parallels arms (1:1) was conducted in the cities of Manaus (AM) and Uberlândia (MG), Brazil. Methods: Children between 4 and 9 years old were selected. In both groups - ART (n = 20) and chemomechanical caries removal (Papaya® gel) (n = 20) - oximeter measurements (heart rate and blood oxygenation) were performed before the intervention and until the complete removal of the infected caries dentin. At the end of the treatment, a Wong-Baker scale was used to assess pain perception during the procedure. An independent researcher measured, in minutes, the duration of each technique. Statistical Analysis: Poisson regression analysis was used to evaluate the association between the outcome and the explicative variables. Results: No statistical difference in pain perception between the two procedures of carious tissue removal was observed. By contrast, a lower heart rate was observed when chemomechanical removal was used (P = 0.013). Conclusion: Children that underwent chemomechanical caries removal presented lower heart rate compared to those who underwent ART. However, both techniques showed minimal or absent perceived pain.
RESUMO
La restauración de dientes tratados endodónticamente (RDTE) es una temática en constante estudio, con la finalidad de que se obtengan protocolos clínicos seguros, que puedan mejorar la longevidad de los tratamientos. En los últimos años es creciente la búsqueda por metodologías complementarias a la resistencia de unión, para la evaluación de las RDTE. No obstante, es importante conocer las ventajas y desventajas de cada uno de los métodos complementarios más empleados para evaluar las RDTEs, permitiendo ampliar los conocimientos obtenidos en una investigación. El objetivo de este estudio fue presentar los diferentes métodos utilizados como complementarios a las pruebas de resistencia de la unión y resistencia a la fractura tras una revisión narrativa de la literatura. Se realizó una búsqueda en las bases de datos electrónicas PUBMED, BBO (Biblioteca Dental Brasileña), LILACS (Literatura de Salud de América Latina y el Caribe), SciELO y Medline, utilizando las palabras clave "dientes tratados endodónticamente" y "perno prefabricado", de 1990 hasta el 2020. De los 360 artículos se excluyeron 295 que no pre- sentaban información relevante para nuestra investigación, donde las metodologías com- prendieron pruebas microbiológicas, moleculares, biológicas, metodologías de imagen y métodos de análisis de superficies. Al final de la selección de artículos, se enumeraron las técnicas utilizadas en cada estudio y, a partir de ahí, se realizó una nueva búsqueda bibliográfica, con el objetivo de revisar las técnicas y sus potenciales usos, ventajas y desventajas. Se concluye que las técnicas presentadas son valiosas para incrementar los resultados obtenidos con las pruebas mecánicas en la evaluación de la RDTE con pernos prefabricados.
The restoration of endodontically treated teeth (RETT) is a subject in constant study, in order to obtain safe clinical protocols that can improve treatments longevity. In recent years, the search for complementary methodologies to bond-strength proves has been growing for evaluating RETTE, being important to know the most used complemen- tary methods' advantages and disadvantages to evaluate this. The aim of this study is to present a literature review on complementary methods to bond strength and the fracture strength tests. The articles search was done in databases: PUBMED, BBO (Brazilian Dental Library), LILACS (Health Literature of Latin America and the Caribbean), SciELO and Medline, using the keywords "endodontically treated teeth" and "prefabricated post" from 1990 to 2020. Out of 360 articles 295 were excluded because they did not present relevant information for this research, since the methodologies included micro- biological, molecular, biological tests, imaging methodologies, and surface analysis methods. The techniques used in each selected article were listed, and starting from them, a new bibliographic search was carried out, with the aim of reviewing the techniques and their potential uses, advantages and disadvantages. It was concluded that the presented techniques were valuable to increase the obtained results with the mechanical proves in RETT evaluation with prefabricated posts.
RESUMO
Objetivo: este artigo se propõe a discutir o tratamento de lesões profundas de cárie em molares permanentes, através da técnica de remoção seletiva de tecido cariado e restauração de resina composta, em dois casos clínicos, utilizando apenas sistema adesivo (caso 1) ou proteção pulpar indireta com cimento de hidróxido de cálcio (caso 2). Relato de casos: os indivíduos foram diagnosticados com dentes apresentando lesões profundas de cárie, isto é, com mais de 50% em profundidade da dentina, confirmada pelo exame radiográfico interproximal. O conjunto de resultados de testes de sensibilidade pulpar positivo ao frio e teste de percussão horizontal e vertical negativos, juntamente com a ausência de dor espontânea e normalidade do periápice (radiografia periapical), completaram os requisitos exigidos para execução da técnica de remoção seletiva de dentina cariada amolecida. Os dentes receberam restaurações adesivas na mesma sessão, sobre a dentina cariada amolecida da parede pulpar que havia recebido forramento de cimento de hidróxido de cálcio ou não, dependentes de uma randomização. Ambos os casos apresentados mostraram sucesso clínico em acompanhamento de 18 meses, tanto na manutenção da vitalidade pulpar quanto na sobrevivência da restauração. Considerações finais: com base nos casos apresentados, sabendo das limitações deste modelo de estudo, e em concordância com a literatura, a remoção seletiva de tecido cariado pode ser executada com sucesso no tratamento de lesões profundas de cárie, respeitando-se todos os passos da técnica, e parece não haver necessidade de uso de proteção pulpar indireta.(AU)
Objective: this article aims to discuss the treatment of deep caries lesions in permanent molars through the selective caries tissue removal technique and composite resin restoration of two clinical cases, using only an adhesive system (case 1) or an indirect pulp protection of calcium hydroxide cement (case 2). Cases report: the participants were diagnosed with deep caries lesions, that is, more than 50% in depth of the dentin involved, which was confirmed by the interproximal radiography. In both cases, it was obtained positive response to cold test, negative response to horizontal and vertical percussion tests, absence of spontaneous pain and no periapical lesion (periapical radiography), which completed the requirements for performing the selective caries removal of soft dentin. These teeth received adhesive restorations in the same session, under the softened carious dentin of the pulp wall that had received calcium hydroxide cement or not, depending on randomization. Both cases had clinical success in the 18-month follow- -up, showing pulp vitality and restoration survival. Final considerations: based on the clinical cases reported, considering de limitations of this study model, and in agreement with the literature, the selective removal of carious tissue can be successfully performed in the treatment of deep carious lesions, respecting all the steps of the technique and indirect pulp protection seems to be unnecessary.(AU)

Objetivo: Este ensaio clínico randomizado avaliou o comportamento de restaurações com resina composta bulk-fill flow em dentes posteriores após três anos do tratamento restaurador. Métodos: Dezessete pacientes (12 mulheres, 5 homens, idade 23-59) foram selecionados para ter pelo menos duas restaurações de amálgama ou de resina composta substituídas, ou receber tratamento restaurador para lesão cariosa. As cavidades foram aleatoriamente alocadas para receberem o compósito bulk-fill flow Suferil SDR Flow, oclusamente coberto por uma resina composta convencional nano-híbrida Esthet-X HD (técnica bulk and body), ou serem preenchidas exclusivamente com Esthet-X HD, inseridas em incrementos de 2mm cada técnica incremental). Um adesivo convencional de dois passos foi aplicado em todas as cavidades. Trinta e quatro restaurações Classes I ou II foram realizados em dentes posteriores (n=17) no início do estudo (baseline). Após 03 anos, os critérios do USPHS modificado e FDI foram utilizados para avaliar as restaurações. Os dados foram submetidos à análise estatística Mann-Whitney (p<0,05). Resultados: No acompanhamento de 3 anos, vinte e quatro restaurações (17 Classes I e 7 Classes II) foram avaliadas. Não foram detectadas diferenças entre as técnicas restauradoras (p>0,05). Não houve falha em nenhuma restauração ao longo do tempo. Conclusão: Após 03 anos de serviço clínico, todas restaurações utilizando um compósito bulk-fill flow em dentes posteriores demonstraram uma performance satisfatória. Significância Clínica: A qualidade geral das restaurações em dentes posteriores realizadas com a técnica bulk and body foi similar ao das restaurações incrementais utilizando um compósito nano-híbrido.

Objective: This randomized clinical trial evaluated the behavior of restorations with flowable bulk-fill resin composite in posterior teeth three years after the restorative treatment. Methods: Seventeen patients (12 women, 5 men, age 23-59) were selected to have at least two failing amalgam or resin restorations replaced and/or to have a carious lesion restored. The cavities were randomly allocated to receive either the flowable bulk-fill composite Surefil SDR Flow occlusally covered with the conventional nano-hybrid composite Esthet-X HD (bulk and body technique) or filled exclusively with Esthet-X HD placed in 2 mm increments (incremental technique). A two-step etch-and-rinse adhesive was applied in all cavities. Thirty-four Class I or II restorations were performed in posterior teeth (n=17) during baseline. After 03 years, modified USPHS and FDI criteria were used to evaluate the restorations. Data were subjected to Mann-Whitney statistical analysis (p<0.05). Results: At the 3-year follow-up, twenty-four restorations (17 Class I and 7 Class II) were evaluated. No diff erences were detected between the bulk and body and the incremental restorations (p>0.05). No restoration failures were observed over time. Conclusion: After 03 years of clinical service, all restorations using a flowable bulk-fill composite in posterior teeth showed an acceptable performance. Clinical Significance: The overall quality of posterior restorations made with the bulk and body technique was similar to that of restorations made with a nano-hybrid composite incrementally placed.

The management of fractured permanent teeth due to dental trauma in young patients is a challenge that requires an efficient approach. Objective: Describe a conservative and multidisciplinary treatment of a case of dental trauma in a 13 years-old boy. Case report: At clinical examination was verified enamel and dentin fracture in the left upper central incisor and a fracture with pulp exposure in the right upper lateral incisor, with subgingival extension of its margin at lingual surface, and no swelling or tooth displacement was observed. At radiographic evaluation, no pulp or periradicular disturbances were verified. It was proposed the surgical lengthening of the clinical crown of the right upper lateral incisor for later performing endodontic treatment. It was decided to make direct composite resin restorations in both fractured teeth, instead of doing a prosthetic treatment in the affected lateral incisor, such as the placement of a full ceramic crown, in an attempt to perform a less invasive treatment, mainly due to the age of the patient. At a two years follow-up visit was observed the maintenance of the health of periapical tissues and the absence of clinical alterations. Conclusion: The restorations were kept in good conditions and aesthetics was considered satisfactory by professionals, patient and parents.
Introdução: O manejo de dentes permanentes fraturados por traumatismo dentário em pacientes jovens é desafiador e requer uma abordagem eficiente. Objetivo: Descrever o tratamento conservador e multidisciplinar em um caso de traumatismo dentário de um menino de 13 anos de idade. Relato do caso: Ao exame clínico foi verificada uma fratura de esmalte e dentina no incisivo central superior esquerdo e uma fratura complicada no incisivo lateral superior direito, com extensão subgengival da margem na face palatina, e não foram observados edema ou deslocamento dentário. Ao exame radiográfico, não foram verificadas alterações pulpares ou perirradiculares. Foi proposta realização de aumento da coroa clínica do incisivo lateral superior direito para posterior realização do tratamento endodôntico. Para os dois dentes traumatizados foi proposta a realização de restauração direta com resina composta, proporcionando um tratamento menos invasivo ao incisivo lateral superior direito, ao invés de submetê-lo a um tratamento protético, como a colocação de uma coroa total cerâmica, principalmente devido à pouca idade do paciente. Na visita de dois anos de acompanhamento, observou-se a manutenção da saúde dos tecidos periapicais e ausência de alterações clínicas. Conclusão: As restaurações se mantiveram em boas condições e a estética foi considerada satisfatória pelos profissionais, paciente e pais.

Objectives: the aim of this study was to provide a retrospective clinical evaluation of direct composite veneers performed with microfilled or universal composites, through two evaluation criteria (FDI and USPHS). Materials and methods: patients should be in compliance with the inclusion criteria: having a composite veneer in anterior teeth made either with microfilled or universal using composites (microhybrid/nanohybrid), conventional dentin-bonding agents and for a minimum of 6 months period in service. A calibrated blind examiner assessed the veneers using the FDI and USPHS criteria and the results were subjected to statistical analysis by the Mann-Whitney test (p<0.05). Results: Twenty-eight patients (mean age 42.9 year-old) and seventy-four composite veneers were examined. The mean period of time in service was three years, with periods varying from six months up to ten years. Three cases of total failure (veneers lost, universal composites group) occurred in the surveyed patients, out of 17 failures in total. In general, the veneers showed a clinical satisfactory outcome (77% survival rate). Concerning the two composite types, better clinical performance was observed for microfilled in relation to surface luster, surface staining, colour match and marginal adaptation. Conclusion: In this interim evaluation, direct composite veneers demonstrated an acceptable clinical behavior. Microfilled composite veneers showed a better performance compared to universal composites. The two criteria (USPHS and FDI) were similar in the clinical evaluation process. Clinical relevance: direct composite veneers have a good clinical performance, microfilled composites are interesting options regarding esthetic properties.
RESUMO
Introdução: As resinas compostas são alternativas restauradoras, porém sua superfície pode favorecer o acúmulo de biofilme. Objetivo: Analisar in vitro a adesão de biofilmes de Streptococcus mutans (UA159) e Candida albicans (ATCC 90028) em superfícies de resinas compostas convencionais e bulk fill. Material e método: Foram utilizadas quatro marcas de resinas compostas e bulk fill: Aura Bulk Fill - SDI®; Premisa - Kerr®; Opallis- FGM®, e Filtek bulk fill flow - 3M®. Utilizou-se saliva artificial para formação da película salivar, por 60 min a 37 °C. O inóculo foi padronizado em 1×108 UFC/mL para S. mutans e 1×106 UFC/mL para C. albicans. Os espécimes (n=8/grupo) foram acondicionados em placas de 24 poços, com BHI suplementado com sacarose para as bactérias, e RPMI 1640, para os fungos. A formação do biofilme foi avaliada considerando as unidades formadoras de colônia (UFC/mL).Os dados foram analisados por ANOVA e Tukey (p<0,05). Resultado: Para os biofilmes de S. mutans, não houve diferença significativa na contagem de UFC/mL entre os diferentes tipos de resina (p=0,119). Na contagem de UFC/mL para biofilme de Candida, as médias variaram entre 7,78 e 8,34. Houve diferença significativa entre as marcas, especialmente entre as resinas convencionais e bulk fill. Conclusão: O presente estudo demonstra que não há diferença na adesão para biofilmes de S. mutans. Porém, há diferença na adesão da C. albicans na superfície de diferentes resinas compostas.
Introduction: Composite resins are restorative alternatives, but their surface may favor the accumulation of biofilm. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro adhesion of Streptococcus mutans (UA159) and Candida albicans (ATCC 90028) biofilms on the surface of conventional and bulk fill composites. Material and method: Four brands of conventional and bulk fill composites were used, Aura Bulk Fill - SDI®, Premisa - Kerr®, Opallis- FGM® and Filtek bulk fill flow - 3M®. Artificial saliva was used to form the salivary film for 60 min at 37 ° C. The inoculum was standardized at 1x108 CFU/mL for S. mutans and 1x106 CFU/mL for C. albicans. The specimens (n = 8/group) were placed in 24-well plates, with BHI supplemented with sucrose for bacteria and RPMI 1640 for fungi. The biofilm formation was evaluated considering the colony forming units (CFU/mL). The data were analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey test (p <0.05). Result: For S. mutans biofilms, there was no significant difference in the CFU/mL count between the different types of composites (p = 0.119). In the CFU / mL count for C.albicans biofilm, the CFU/mL ranged from 7.78 to 8.34. There was a significant difference between brands for Candida, especially between conventional and bulk fill composites. Conclusion: The present study demonstrates that there is no difference in adhesion for S. mutans biofilms. On the other hand, there is a difference in the adhesion of C. albicans to the surface of different composite resins.

Abstract This in vitro study aimed to evaluate the effect of a silane-containing universal adhesive used with or without a silane agent on the repair bond strength between aged and new composites. Forty nanohybrid composite resin blocks were stored in distilled water for 14 d and thermo-cycled. Sandpaper ground, etched, and rinsed speciments were randomly assigned into four experimental groups: silane + two-step etch-and-rinse adhesive system, two-step etch-and-rinse adhesive system, silane + silane-containing universal adhesive system, and silane-containing universal adhesive system. Blocks were repaired using the same composite. After 24 h of water storage, the blocks were sectioned and bonded sticks were submitted to microtensile testing. Ten unaged, non-repaired composite blocks were used as a reference group to evaluate the cohesive strength of the composite. Two-way ANOVA and Tukey's tests were used to analyze average µTBS. One-way ANOVA and Dunnet post-hoc tests were used to compare the cohesive strength values and bond strength obtained in the repaired groups (α = 0.05). The µTBS values were higher for the silane-containing universal adhesive compared to the two-step etch-and-rinse adhesive system (p = 0.002). Silane application improved the repair bond strength (p = 0.03). The repair bond strength ranged from 39.3 to 65.8% of the cohesive strength of the reference group. Using universal silane-containing adhesive improved the repair bond strength of composite resin compared to two-step etch-and-rinse adhesive. However, it still required prior application of a silane agent for best direct composite resin repair outcomes.

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of the translucency of ceramic on water sorption and solubility of resin cements over time. Methods: Lithium disilicate ceramic slides (15x15x1 mm), A1 in color and with different translucencies (high-medium-low) were manufactured; and a glass slide with similar dimension was used as control. Under every slide, 15 specimens (8x0.5 mm) from each resin cement were prepared: light-cured (RelyX Veneer); conventional dual-cured (RelyX ARC); and self-adhesive dual-cured (Rely-X U200). The specimens were then sub-divided according to the period of evaluation (immediately, after 6 and 12 months of storage) (n=5). To evaluate the loss or gain of mass, the specimens were dried until a constant mass was reached. Subsequently, they were divided according to the respective period of storage at 37°C in distilled water and weighed immediately following removal from water. After each period, specimens underwent a new dehydration. Values from water sorption and solubility were calculated and statistically analyzed (Anova 3-way/Tukey test). Results: The lower translucency resulted in greater water sorption and solubility for all cements, regardless of the experimental period. The self-adhesive dual-cured cement showed higher water sorption under all experimental periods and had worse values after 1 year aging. Differences among solubility could only be detected after aging, and the light-cured material had higher values after 6 and 12 months. Conclusions: It could be concluded that the low degree of translucency can negatively influence the passage of light and interfere on the durability of the resin cement. The conventional dual-cured resinous agent seemed to be less affected by such condition

Objective: To assess the six-month clinical outcome of restorations of non-carious cervical lesions (NCCL) with two composite resins: Bulk-Fill and nanohybrid resin. Materials and methods: Fifty-one patients, with three NCCLs each, were randomly allocated into three restoration groups: Tetric-N-Ceram Bulk-Fill (TB); Filtek Bulk-Fill (FB); y Filtek Z350XT (Z350). Adhesive techniques and restorative procedures were performed according to the manufacturers' instructions for the different materials. A 4mm increment was applied in TB and FB, and increments of ≤2mm depth were applied in Z350. Restorations were assessed by two calibrated examiners at baseline and at six months according to the FDI World Dental Federation guidelines (1: excellent, 2: acceptable, 3: sufficient, 4: unsatisfactory, 5: unacceptable) in Marginal Staining (MS), Fracture-Retention (FR), Marginal Adaptation (MA), Postoperative Sensitivity (S) and Caries (C). Wilcoxon test was used for the comparison between baseline and 6 months, and Kruskal-Wallis for the comparison of the three groups at six months (95% significance). Results: Forty-six patients with a total of 138 restorations attended a check-up at six months and were evaluated with excellent clinical outcome. In MS, 91.2% for Z350 and 97.8% for FB and TB; in FR, 97.8% for Z350 and 100% for FB and TB; in MA, 95.6% for Z350, 97.8% for FB and 100% for TN; in S, 95.6% for all three groups; and 100% for C. No statistically significant differences were found between the three groups nor in the comparison between the baseline and 6 months (p>0.05) Conclusion: No significant differences are observed between the three groups of resins in the parameters of MS, MA, S, FR and C regarding clinical outcome at six months.
