Efectos antirresortivos y antimicrobianos de los antiinflamatorios no esteroideos en lesiones periapicales / Antiresorptive and antimicrobial effects of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in periapical lesion

Los antiinflamatorios no esteroideos (AINE) son un grupo de fármacos que han sido comúnmente prescritos por sus propiedades antiinflamato- rias, antipiréticas y analgésicas, mismas que se deben a la inhibición de la formación de prostaglandinas. Este mecanismo ha sido ampliamente respaldado en la literatura; sin embargo, en la actualidad poco se co- noce sobre las propiedades adicionales de estos medicamentos como el efecto antirresortivo y antimicrobiano. La función antirresortiva se debe principalmente al bloqueo de la producción de prostaglandinas en específico la PGE2, que posee gran potencial osteoclastogénico, esencial para la aparición de lesiones periapicales; asimismo, la acción antimicrobiana de los AINE está relacionada con la afectación directa de la perpetuación de biopelícula, potencian la acción de los antibióticos, entre otros. Dichos efectos combinados podrían contribuir en la cura- ción de lesiones periapicales. El objetivo de este estudio es recopilar información actualizada sobre estas funciones agregadas de los AINE, con el fin de dar a conocer a los profesionales estos beneficios en la terapéutica de las lesiones periapicales (AU)

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAIDs) are a group of drugs that have been commonly prescribed for their anti-inflammatory, antipyretic and analgesic properties, which are due to the inhibition of prostaglandin formation. This mechanism has been widely supported in the literature; however, currently little is known about the additional properties of these drugs such as the antiresorptive and antimicrobial effect. The antiresorptive function is mainly due to the blockage of prostaglandin production, specifically PGE2, which has great osteoclastogenic potential, and is essential for the appearance of periapical lesions; likewise, the antimicrobial action of NSAIDs is related to the fact that they directly affect the perpetuation of biofilms, enhance the action of antibiotics, among others. These combined effects could contribute to the healing of periapical lesions. The aim of this study is to gather updated information on these added functions of NSAIDs, in order to inform professionals about these benefits in the therapy of periapical lesion (AU)

Feasibility of using acetazolamide in thetreatment of tooth resorption / Viabilidade de uso da acetazolamida notratamento de reabsorções radiculares

Objective: Since acetazolamide is a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, it presents relevant aspects with regardto the treatment of late reimplanted teeth, and therefore, this is the aim of the present literature review.Data Sources: The databases used were Pubmed and Bireme. Selection of works: was performed usingthe keywords Tooth reimplantation, Dental ankylosis, Acetazolamide and Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors.Conclusions: In spite of contemporary guidelines for the treatment of late reimplantation, there is still avery high loss of avulsed teeth due to resorption, particularly by replacement resorption, so that the searchfor new substances or means of treatment is of the utmost importance.

Objetivo: Uma vez que a acetazolamida é uma inibidora da anidrase carbônica, ela apresenta aspectos relevantesquanto ao tratamento de dentes reimplantados tardiamente, justificando assim o objetivo da presenterevisão de literatura. Fontes de dados: as bases de dados utilizados foram Pubmed e Bireme. Seleção dos damtrabalhos:foi realizada por meio das palavras-chave Reimplante dentário, Anquilose dentária, Acetazolamidae Inibidores da anidrase carbônica. Conclusões: Apesar das diretrizes atuais para o tratamento do reimplantetardio, ainda a perda de dentes avulsionados por reabsorção é muito alta, principalmente diante da reabsorçãopor substituição, sendo premente a busca por novas substâncias ou meios de tratamento.
