Alteração de Cor de Resinas Compostas Imersas em Diferentes Bebidas / Colors Change of Composite Resins Immersed in Different Beverages

O presente estudo analisou resinas compostas imersas em diferentes bebidas (café, vinho tinto, refrigerante a base de cola e água destilada) nos diferentes tempos de polimento. Avaliou-se também a estabilidade de cor após o repolimento. As resinas compostas utilizadas foram: Resina Filtek Z350 XT e Resina Brilliant NG; as bebidas para o experimento foram: café, refrigerante à base de cola, vinho tinto e água destilada, que corresponde ao grupo controle. Foram confeccionados 160 corpos de prova: 80 de cada resina composta. Vinte corpos de prova receberam polimento imediato, vinte receberam polimento após 24 horas, vinte o polimento após 7 dias e os outros vinte não receberam polimento. As análises de cor foram feitas utilizando o aparelho espectrocolorímetro, que utiliza o sistema CIELab. Foi avaliado o ΔE dos grupos após 30 dias (ΔE= 30d ­ baseline). Os dados foram submetidos à ANOVA e teste de Tukey (α=5%). Os corpos-de-prova passaram por processo de repolimento com discos de Sof-Lex Pop On e, posteriormente, foram analisados em busca de identificar se houve aproximação equivalente à cor inicial. As bebidas testadas possuem capacidade de manchamento, sendo o café e o vinho tinto os grupos com maiores valores de alteração de cor, seguido do refrigerante à base de cola. As resinas compostas polidas apresentaram valores menores de alteração de cor, independentemente, do tempo de polimento. Com o repolimento, a água destilada e o refrigerante à base de cola tiveram seus valores considerados clinicamente aceitáveis ΔE<3,3. Já o café e o vinho tinto tiveram seus valores de manchamento reduzidos, porém perceptíveis ao olho humano. (AU)

The present study examined composite resins in different beverages (coffee, red wine, cola-based soda and distilled water) in the different times of polishing and after the re-polishing. The composite resins used were: resin Filtek Z350 XT and resin Brilliant NG; the tested beverages were: coffee, red wine, soft-drink and distilled water corresponding to the control group. 160 specimens were made, 80 of each composite. Twenty specimens were given immediate polishing, twenty were polished after 24 hours, twenty were polished after 7 days and the other twenty had no polishing. Color analysis was made using the spectrophotometer device that uses CIELab system. ΔE was evaluated after 30 days immersion period (ΔE = 30-days - baseline). The data were submitted to ANOVA and Tukey tests (α=5%). Then, specimens were re-polished with Sof- Lex Pop On and subsequently analyzed if there was approach equivalent to the initial color. All the tested beverages had ability to staining, and coffee and red wine groups showed higher values of color change, followed by soft-drink. The composite resins polished showed lower values of color change, regardless of the polishing time. After re-polishing, distilled water and soft-drink had their values considered clinically acceptable ΔE<3.3; coffee and red wine had their staining values reduced, but perceptible to the human eye.

Avaliação da condição bucal de pacientes portadores de paralisia cerebral na cidade de Uberaba / Evaluation of the oral health of patients with cerebral palsy in the city of Uberaba, Brazil

Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar as condições de saúde bucal através de parâmetros salivares e microbiológicos associados á cárie dental em pacientes com PC submetidas ou não à gastrostomia na cidade de Uberaba. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo observacional transversal, realizado com uma amostra selecionada por conveniência com 48 pacientes com idades entre 2 anos e 16 anos, pertencentes aos Ambulatórios de Cirurgia Pediátrica e da Neurologia do Hospital de Clínicas da UFTM e do Hospital da Criança da cidade de Uberaba, divididos em 3 grupos sendo, 16 pacientes sem deficiência (Grupo SD), 15 pacientes com Paralisia Cerebral (Grupo PC) e 17 pacientes com PC submetidas à gastrostomia e fundoplicatura de Nissen (Grupo PCG). Avaliou-se o índice de cárie (IC), o índice de placa (IP), contagem salivar do número de colônias de Streptococcus mutans (CB) e a capacidade de tamponamento salivar (CTS). Os dados obtidos de IP, CB e CTS foram submetidos à análise estatística One Way Anova (p<0,05), e os dados de IP ao Teste de Tukey (p<0,05). A avaliação do IC se deu através de análise estatística descritiva da porcentagem simples das faces cariadas em relação ao número total de faces. Resultados: Observou-se diferença estatística apenas entre os grupos para o IP, sendo que o grupo PCG apresentou os maiores valores de índices de placa quando comparados aos demais. Conclusão: Concluiu-se que a PC, associada ou não à gastrostomia, não é facilitador ou atenuante da doença cárie, nem atua como fator determinante da saúde bucal.(AU)

Aim: This study sought to evaluate oral health conditions through oral clinical examinations and salivary and microbiological analyses associated with dental caries in patients with Cerebral Palsy (CP) submitted or not to gastrostomy in the city of Uberaba, MG, Brazil. Methods: This is an observational cross sectional study, conducted in a conventional sample of 48 patients, 2 to 16 years of age, at the UFTM Clinical Hospital and the Children's Hospital of Uberaba, divided into 3 groups, as follows: 16 patients without disabilities (Group WD), 15 patients with CP (Group CP), and 17 patients with CP submitted to gastrostomy and Nissen fundoplication (Group WCP). This study evaluated the caries index (CI), plaque index (PI), salivary counts of the Streptococcus mutans bacterium (CB), and salivary buffering capacity (SBC). Data from PI, CB, and SBC were statistically analyzed by the One-Way ANOVA analysis (p<0.05), and PI data were submitted to the Tukey test (p<0.05). Results: A statistically significant difference was only observed among the groups as regards the PI analysis, given that the WCP group presented the highest values. Conclusion: It was concluded that the CP, with or without gastrostomy is not a facilitator or attenuating circumstance of caries, nor is it a determining factor of good or poor oral health.(AU)

Influence of traumatic dental injury on quality of life of Brazilian preschool children and their families.

AIM: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of traumatic dental injury (TDI) on the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) of Brazilian preschool children and their families. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A cross-sectional study was carried out with 1632 children of both sexes aged 60-71 months in the city of Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Data on OHRQoL were collected using the Brazilian version of the Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale (B-ECOHIS), which was self-administered by parents/caregivers to record their perceptions regarding the oral health of their children. A questionnaire addressing demographic and socio-economic data was also sent to parents/caregivers. Oral examinations of the children were performed by a single, previously calibrated dentist (intraexaminer and interexaminer agreement: kappa ≥ 0.83) for the assessment of the prevalence and type of TDI using the diagnostic criteria proposed by Andreasen et al. [2007]. Bivariate and multiple Poisson regression analyses were performed, with the level of significance set at 5%. RESULTS: The prevalence of negative impact from oral conditions on quality of life was 36.8% and 31.4% for children and families, respectively. TDI was not significantly associated with OHRQoL. Tooth avulsion remained in final multiple models of child OHRQoL [PR = 1.37, 95%CI = 1.02-1.85] and family OHRQoL [PR = 1.55, 95%CI = 1.12-2.14]. Tooth discolouration remained in the final multiple models of family OHRQoL [PR = 1.23, 95%CI = 1.05-1.44]. CONCLUSIONS: The presence of TDI in Brazilian preschool children has no impact on quality of life of the children or their families. However, tooth avulsion is associated with a negative impact on OHRQoL in both groups, and tooth discolouration is associated with a negative impact on family OHRQoL.

Impact of Malocclusion on Oral Health-Related Quality of Life among Brazilian Preschool Children: a Population-Based Study

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the impact of malocclusion on Oral Health-Related Quality of Life (OHRQoL) of children and their families. A population-based cross-sectional study was carried out in Belo Horizonte, MG, Brazil. A representative sample of 1069 male and female preschoolers aged 60 to 71 months was randomly selected from public and private preschools and daycare centers. Data were collected using the B-ECOHIS. In addition, a questionnaire addressing socioeconomic and demographic data was self-administered by the parents/guardians. The criteria used to diagnose malocclusion were based on Foster and Hamilton (1969), Graboswki et al. (2007) and Oliveira et al. (2008). Descriptive, univariate and multiple Poison logistic regression analyses were carried out. The prevalence of malocclusion was observed in 46.2% of the children and deep overbite was the most prevalent type of malocclusion (19.7%), followed by posterior crossbite (13.1%), accentuated overjet (10.5%), anterior open bite (7.9%) and anterior crossbite (6.7%). The impact of malocclusion on OHRQoL was 32.7% among the children and 27.1% among the families. In Poisson multiple regression model adjusted for socioeconomic status, no significant association was found between malocclusion and OHRQoL of the children (PR=1.09, 95% CI: 0.96-1.24) and their families (PR=1.11, 95% CI: 0.94-1.31). It is concluded that children with malocclusion in this sample did not have a negative impact on their OHRQoL and of their families.

O objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar o impacto da maloclusão na OHRQoL de crianças e suas famílias. Um estudo transversal de base populacional foi conduzido em Belo Horizonte, Brasil. Uma amostra representativa contendo 1069 crianças dos gêneros masculino e feminino foi randomicamente selecionada, em creches e pré-escolas públicas e privadas. Os dados foram coletados através do questionário B-ECOHIS. Ademais, um questionário contendo dados socioeconômicos e demográficos foi respondido pelos pais/responsáveis das crianças. Os critérios utilizados para o diagnóstico de maloclusão foram baseados nos estudos de Foster e Hamilton (1969), Graboswki et al. (2007) e Oliveira et al. (2008). Análises descritivas, univariadas e regressão logística múltipla de Poisson foram realizadas. A prevalência de maloclusão foi observada em 46,2% das crianças, sendo a mordida profunda o tipo de maloclusão mais frequente (19,7%), seguido de mordida cruzada posterior (13,1%), sobressaliência acentuada (10,5%), mordida aberta anterior (7,9%) e mordida cruzada anterior (6,7%). A prevalência do impacto da maloclusão na OHRQoL foi de 32,7% nas crianças e 27,1% nas famílias. No modelo de regressão múltipla ajustado para o status socioeconômico, não se observou associação significante entre maloclusão e OHRQoL das crianças (PR=1.09, 95% CI: 0,96-1,24) e de suas famílias (PR=1,11, 95% CI: 0,94-1,31). Conclui-se que as crianças que apresentaram maloclusão nesta amostra, não apresentaram impacto negativo na sua OHRQoL e nem de suas famílias.

Oral health-related quality of life among Brazilian preschool children.

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of oral health conditions on oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) in population-based sample of Brazilian preschool children. A further aim was to identify the influence of socio-demographic profile and perceptions regarding general health and oral health status on OHRQoL. METHODS: An epidemiological survey was carried out at public and private preschools in the city of Belo Horizonte, Brazil. The sample consisted of 1632 5-year-old male and female preschoolers randomly selected using a multi-stage sampling technique and their parents/caregivers. Oral examinations of the children were performed by a single, previously calibrated examiner for the assessment of dental caries experience, malocclusion, traumatic dental injury and developmental defects of enamel. Caregivers were asked to complete the Brazilian Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale (B-ECOHIS) and a form on socio-demographic data. Descriptive, bivariate and adjusted Poisson regression model analyses were carried out. RESULTS: In the child section of the B-ECOHIS, OHRQoL was negatively impacted by decayed, missing and filled teeth [prevalence ratios (PR) = 2.18; 95% CI, 1.88-2.52], position of the child among siblings in the family (PR = 1.20; 95% CI, 1.04-1.39), type of preschool (PR = 1.36; 95% CI, 1.10-1.69), age of parents/caregivers (PR = 1.18; 95% CI, 1.04-1.34), monthly household income (PR = 1.48; 95% CI, 1.18-1.85) and perception of the child's general health status (PR = 1.26; 95% CI, 1.06-1.51). In the family section, the adjusted results demonstrated a negative impact on OHRQoL associated with dental caries experience (PR = 3.40; 95% CI, 2.83-4.08), age of parents/caregivers (PR = 1.16; 95% CI, 1.01-1.33) and monthly household income (PR = 1.41; 95% CI, 1.16-1.72). CONCLUSIONS: Dental caries experience was the only normative criteria with a negative impact on OHRQoL. Families with low income and younger parents reported a greater impact on quality of life. According to parents' perceptions, a poor general health status rating was related to poorer quality of life among the children.

Impact of traumatic dental injury on quality of life among Brazilian preschool children and their families.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of traumatic dental injury (TDI) on the quality of life of preschool children and their families. METHODS: This cross-sectional study was carried out with 388 60- to 71-month-old children. Data on oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) were collected using the Brazilian version of the Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale (ECOHIS). Oral examinations of the children were performed to determine the prevalence of TDI. Data analysis involved the chi-square test and multiple Poisson regression analysis. RESULTS: The prevalence of OHRQoL of the children and their families was approximately 49% and 35%, respectively. The adjusted Poisson regression model revealed that the OHRQoL of the children and their families was significantly related to parents'/caregivers' report of the occurrence of TDI (PR =1.54, 95% confidence interval=1.22-1.93; and PR=1.63, 95% CI=1.21-2.19, respectively). The nonadjusted Poisson regression analysis, the OHRQofL of the children and their families was not related to TDI, as determined by the clinical examination (PR=1.15, 95% CI=0.92-1.42; and PR=1.28, 95% CI=0.95-1.71, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: The families and children who had traumatic dental injury, perceived by the parents/caregivers, had a greater chance of reporting an impact on quality of life.
