ABSTRACT
Introducción: El manejo clínico de las lesiones dentales ocasionadas por fluorosis dental se realiza mediante diversas técnicas que resultan ser muy agresivas y con pobres resultados estéticos, por estas razones se plantea como objetivo determinar el tratamiento mínimamente invasivo y estético para fluorosis dental en los estadios de 1 a 5 según el índice de Thylstrup and Fejerskov, descritos en la literatura. Metodología: Revisión sistemática de 2.299 artículos, procedentes de cuatro bases de datos: PubMed, Embase, Science Direct y EBSCO; la búsqueda se realizó con ocho términos MeSH y tres conectores booleanos para una selección final de 22 artículos en inglés, español y portugués, publicados entre enero de 2009 y diciembre de 2018. Resultados: El tratamiento más efectivo para lesiones en estadios TF1 y TF2 fue aclaramiento dental con peróxido de carbamida a 15% o peróxido de hidrógeno a 35% durante tres sesiones de 15 minutos cada una, reforzado con peróxido de carbamida a 10%. Para estadios TF3 y TF4 fue microabrasión con ácido clorhídrico al 6% y carburo de silicio y/o con aclaramiento dental. Para lesioneTF5 fue la técnica combinada de macro y microabrasión con ácido fosfórico a 37% o ácido clorhídrico a 6%, 15% y 18%, aclaramiento y aplicación de resina infiltrante. Conclusión: Existen bases científicas que indican que el tratamiento de la Fluorosis es directamente proporcional al estadio de la lesión. (AU)
Introduction: The clinical management of dental lesions caused by dental fluorosis is carried out through various techniques that are very aggressive and with poor aesthetic results. For these reasons, the aim is to determine the minimally invasive and aesthetic treatment for dental fluorosis in stages of 1 to 5 according to the Thylstrup and Fejerskov index, described in the literature. Methodology: Systematic review of 2,299 articles, from four databases: PubMed, Embase, Science Direct and EBSCO; the search was carried out with eight MeSHterms and three Boolean connectors for a final selection of 22 articles in English, Spanish and Portuguese, published between January 2009 and December2018. Results: The most effective treatment for lesions in stages TF1 and TF2 was dental clearance with carbamide peroxide at 15% or hydrogen peroxide at 35% for three sessions of 15 minutes each, reinforced with 10% carbamide peroxide. For stages TF3 and TF4 it was microabrasion with 6% hydrochloric acid and silicon carbide and / or with dental clearance. For lesioneTF5 was the combined technique of macro and microabrasion with phosphoric acid at 37% or hydrochloric acid at 6%, 15% and 18%, clearance and application of infiltrating resin. Conclusion: There are scientific bases that indicate that the treatment of Fluorosis is directly proportional to the stage of the lesion. (AU)

INTRODUCTION: Accumulating evidence amongst dental students indicates an alarming prevalence of stress, which can precipitate the development of burnout--a state of mental or physical exhaustion and disengagement. Understanding individual and educational correlates of burnout is necessary for its prevention. The aims of this study were to determine the prevalence of burnout amongst a large sample of Colombian dental undergraduates and investigate its psychosocial and educational correlates. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Survey data collected from 5647 students participating in the Stress in Colombian Dental Education study were used for this analysis. Burnout was measured using the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Survey (MBI-SS). Covariates included participants' socio-demographic characteristics and perceived stress, as well as educational environment factors. Descriptive, bivariate and multivariate methods based on multilevel mixed-effects logistic regression modelling were used for data analysis. RESULTS: Seven per cent of the students surveyed met the criteria for burnout. The prevalence of burnout was higher amongst upper classes, older and married students, those who reported not having passed all required courses and not having dentistry as their first career choice, as well as students in public institutions and those with large class sizes. Moreover, students' perceived stress in the domains of workload and self-efficacy was significantly and positively associated with burnout. CONCLUSIONS: Both personal and educational environment characteristics were found to be associated with burnout. Irrespective of these factors, students' perceived stress with regard to workload and self-efficacy was a strong influence on burnout and its alleviation may be a promising avenue to prevent psychological morbidity.
