RESUMO

This review aimed to determine the prevalence of species of yellow, purple and green microbial complexes in root canals (RC) and periodontal pockets (PP) of teeth with endodontic-periodontal lesions. For this purpose, two reviewers searched the literature up to January 2022. Studies reporting the prevalence of species of the yellow, purple and green microbial complexes in teeth diagnosed with endodontic-periodontal lesions were included. The risk of bias of the included studies was assessed using the 14 criteria from the NIH Quality Assessment Tool. Of 1,611 references identified in the initial search, only four studies were eligible and included in the qualitative analysis. The profile and prevalence rates of bacterial species in RC and PP varied among the included studies: levels of Agregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (12% RC, 58% PP), Capnocytophaga granulosa (10% RC, 35% PP), Capnocytophaga sputigena (15-70% RC, 0-30% PP), Streptococcus mitis (30% RC, 35% PP), Streptococcus sanguinis (30% RC, 35% PP), and Veillonella parvula (70% RC, 50% PP) were identified. The high methodological heterogeneity prevented grouping and quantitative analysis of data. The risk of bias was considered 'moderate' for all studies. The included studies identified the presence of seven bacterial species belonging to the yellow, purple, and green microbial complexes in RC and PP, but with different prevalence rates. Future clinical studies are encouraged to investigate the presence and role of these species in the occurrence and development of endodontic-periodontal lesions.

RESUMO

O defeito ósseo de Stafne foi considerado por muito tempo como um cisto ósseo por se apresentar radiograficamente de forma radiolúcida, circunscrita, com bordas delimitadas e em quase todos os casos unilateral. Hoje em dia já se sabe que é uma depressão e/ou cavidade óssea causada pelo alojamento da glândula submandibular ou parte dela e/ou seus tecidos adjacentes na região posterior da mandíbula, ou na região anterior em casos mais raros pelo alojamento da glândula sublingual. Sendo assim, o objetivo deste trabalho é realizar uma breve revisão da literatura acerca das características mais frequentes e suas variações desta anomalia anatômica. As buscas foram realizas em periódicos de artigos científicos publicado nas bases de dados eletrônicas: PubMed, Scielo e Google Acadêmico, contendo artigos científicos dos últimos dez anos nos idiomas inglês e português. Os dados mostram que o defeito ósseo de stafne tem predileção pelo sexo masculino, é assintomática, pois se trata de uma alteração anatômica, não requer tratamento, portanto cabe ao cirurgião dentista ter conhecimento, uma vez que este é encontrado de forma ocasional em radiografias panorâmicas para investigação de outras circunstancias, e que muitas vezes acaba levando o profissional odontólogo a realizar diagnósticos errôneos ou exames mutiladores como a biopsia que são desnecessários nesta situação pelo fato desta variação anatômica ter características muitos semelhantes aos cistos.

Stafne's bone defect was considered for a long time as a bone cyst because it presents radiographically in a radiolucent, circumscribed form, with delimited borders and, in almost all cases, unilateral. Nowadays it is known that it is a depression and / or bone cavity caused by the accommodation of the submandibular gland or part of it and / or its adjacent tissues in the posterior region of the mandible, or in the anterior region in rarer cases by the accommodation of the sublingual gland. Therefore, the objective of this work is to carry out a brief literature review of the more specific characteristics and their variations of this anatomical anomaly. Searches were performed in journals of scientific articles published in electronic databases: PubMed, Scielo and Academic Google, containing scientific articles from the last ten years in English and Portuguese. The data show that the stafne bone defect has a predilection for males, it is asymptomatic, as it is an anatomical alteration, does not require treatment, therefore it is up to the dental surgeon to be aware, once panoramic to investigate other circumstances, and that many Sometimes it ends up leading the dental professional to perform misdiagnosis or mutilating tests such as a biopsy, which are unnecessary in this situation because this anatomical variation has characteristics that are very similar to cysts.

RESUMO

The objective of this study was to evaluate whether individuals with chronic renal failure (CRF) undergoing hemodialysis treatment have more salivary and oral mucosa alterations when compared to healthy individuals, through a systematic review followed by meta-analysis. A systematic literature review was performed, evaluating randomized clinical trials found in the Proquest, Embase, Scopus, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Lilacs and Pubmed databases, using MeSH terms and other keywords. Initially, 40 articles were included in the study and, after reading the complete articles, only 15 clinical trials that analyzed oral lesions and salivary changes in patients with CRF undergoing hemodialysis treatment were eligible. Most of the clinical studies included were cross-sectional and composed of a study group and a control group. The mean age of participants in the study group was 50.19 years and in the control group, 48.95 years. The most common oral alterations found in the CRF group in relation to the control group were xerostomia, uremic breath, dysgeusia, coated tongue, gingival bleeding and pale mucosa. The salivary flow of patients with CRF was 46.6% lower than the control group. The salivary pH in the study group was also more alkaline when compared to the control group. Greater amounts of urea, phosphate, C-reactive protein and total proteins were found in the saliva of individuals with CRF. Individuals with CRF undergoing hemodialysis are more prone to changes in both the quantity and quality of saliva, as well as having a greater amount of oral changes.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: This systematic review assesses the prevalence of microbial complexes in endodontic-periodontal lesion. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Nine databases were searched through August 2020. Experts were consulted to indicate additional studies. Studies were blindly selected by two reviewers based on pre-defined eligibility criteria. Studies that evaluated the prevalence of microbial orange and red complexes among patients with endodontic-periodontal lesion were considered eligible. Risk of bias was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Checklist for Studies Reporting Prevalence Data. RESULTS: From 572 articles found on all databases, 11 clinical studies were finally included. The following microorganisms were investigated: P. gingivalis, T. forsythia, T. denticola, F. nucleatum, F. periodonticum, P. micra, P. intermedia, P. nigrescens, S. constellatus, C. gracilis, C. rectus, C. showae and E. nodatum. Considering the orange complex, P. micra, E. nodatum and S. constellatus were prevalent in both root canal and periodontal pockets. P. gingivalis and T. forsythia belonging to the red complex were prevalent only in periodontal pockets. The red complex microorganisms were not found very frequently in root canal. CONCLUSIONS: There is a similarity between the microbiome of root canal and periodontal pockets, with prevalence of the three microorganisms of the orange complex. Two microorganisms from the red complex were prevalent only in periodontal pockets. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The prevalence of specific microorganisms in endodontic-periodontal lesion is important to understand the microbiological profile of the patients involved and to correlate it with possible clinical and repair conditions of this pathology.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To perform an epidemiological survey comparing the cell proliferative activity of 107 cases of oral leukoplakia with their clinical and histopathological characteristics. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional, observational, and histological-histochemical study. The cases came from the Histopathological Diagnostic Service of UPF/RS and the School of Dentistry of Araçatuba FOA/UNESP/SP (1986-2016). The histopathological sections were stained using the silver staining (AgNOR) technique and the nuclei of 100 epithelial cells selected randomly were recorded to count the number of nucleolar organizer regions (NORs). The mean NORs per lesion were correlated to clinical and histological characteristics using ANOVA, at 5% significance. RESULTS: Most of the cases included men (62.62%), white (64.49%), and with an average age of 53.94 years. The most probable etiological factors were smoking (44.7%) and alcohol consumption (9.85%). The evolution time of most lesions was fast (33.65%), manifesting mainly in the form of plaques (70.37%) and without symptoms (58.88%). They were located mainly in the cheek mucosa (26.62%) and presented white color (66.35%), well-defined edges (59.81%), firm consistency (47.5%), and keratinized surface (49.53%). Etiological factor (p = 0.003), evolution time (p = 0.006), symptoms (p = 0.029), location (p = 0.020), consistency (p = 0.047), histopathological characteristics (p = 0.004), and superficial keratinization (p = 0.001) were statistically significant regarding the mean NORs of the leukoplakias studied. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Oral leukoplakias caused by alcohol consumption and/or tobacco use, considering an evolution time of fewer than 12 months, asymptomatic, located in the lower lip or tongue, and with a firm consistency and increased superficial keratinization should be treated more aggressively by the clinician to avoid cancerization.

RESUMO

Introdução: a terapia fotodinâmica surgiu na Endodontia como um método de tratamento que utiliza a laserterapia de baixa potência, com ação analgésica, anti-inflamatória e antibacteriana. Objetivo: o presente trabalho visa apresentar e discutir, por meio do relato de um caso de tratamento endodôntico, o uso de terapia fotodinâmica como um aliado contra bactérias persistentes após o preparo químico-mecânico do canal. Relato de caso: paciente com 40 anos de idade, apresentou-se em consultório particular com dor pulsátil, sensível à percussão, com diagnóstico de periodontite apical aguda no dente #22. Após anamnese, exames radiográficos e odontometria, o tratamento endodôntico foi realizado com o sistema ProTaper® Universal (Dentsply), técnica híbrida, irrigação com hipoclorito de sódio 2,5% e agitação ultrassônica associada; e o elemento foi instrumentado e seco. Então, foi aplicada a terapia fotodinâmica: o corante azul de metileno 0,005% foi aplicado no canal seco durante 5 minutos, seguido de laser vermelho por 180 segundos, totalizando 18J (Laser DUO Portátil-MMO®), com movimentos de apical para incisal. Na sequência, nova irrigação de NaOCl e, então, EDTA 17%, com agitação ultrassônica por um minuto, seguido de NaOCl 2,5%, para se obter a neutralização do meio. Após secagem do canal, a obturação foi realizada com um cone único F3 (ProTaper® Universal) e cimentação com AH Plus®. Conclusão: a terapia fotodinâmica é um método de fácil e rápida aplicação, que surgiu como um coadjuvante ao tratamento endodôntico, sendo indicada para a eliminação de microrganismos persistentes após o preparo químico-mecânico dos canais radiculares (AU).

Introduction: Photodynamic therapy appears in endodontics as a treatment method that uses low level laser therapy with analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial. Goal: This paper aims to present and discuss through an endodontic treatment using photodynamic therapy as an ally against persistent bacteria after chemical-mechanical canal preparation. Case report: GR patient, 40, appeared in private practice, with throbbing pain, sensitive to shock, with acute apical periodontitis, the element 22.

RESUMO

The aim of the study was to analyze through an integrative review of the literature, the fear that patients experience in dental treatment, having the critical investigation aimed at the "Sistema Único de Saúde" (Brazilian Public Health System). One of the challenges reported by dental surgeons is the angst that part of the patients feel during treatment, when going through the procedures. This review's main objectives were to point out how this fear occurs and describe the consequences of this condition and how to prevent it. The research for scientific papers strategy was carried out through the site "portal de periódicos da BVS" (Portal of Journals on Health Sciences). All the publications that had the keyword "Ansiedade ao Tratamento Odontológico" (Dental Treatment Anxiety) were consulted. Thus, the search was refined through free scientific papers, with full text in English, with the main subject being the fear of dental treatment, between the years of 2013 and 2017. There were accounts related to the fear of dentist at both biological and psychological spheres, which as a consequence increases the absenteeism in the appointments leading to the worsening of the oral condition of the patient. Therefore, this article suggests that dentists acquire a multidisciplinary qualification, thus allowing them to deal with the psycho-social aspects inherent and integral of each individual. (AU)

The objective is to present and discuss, through a literature review, studies that point to a diagnosis and prognosis in endo-periodontal sclerosis. It was a research in the literature, in the databases: Crochane, Google Academic, Medline, PubMed and Scielo, with scientific articles from 2007 to 2018, in the English and Portuguese languages, using the search terms: "Diagnostic AND/OR "Endodontics" AND/OR "Endo-periodontal lesion AND/OR "Periodontics". Case studies, case control, clinical research, in vitro and in vivo studies, and systematic and systematic reviews of a diagnostic program were selected and followed. The success of surgery is important to be successful in treatment. For this purpose, the assay may be used and / or the clinical exams so that there is no pathology that is affecting the patient. These procedures are: anamnesis, clinical examination, visual examination of soft and hard tissues, radiographic, dental and periodontal probing, palpation, dental mobility, percussion, microbiological examination, tests for fistula processing and pulp sensitivity, and in cases of doubt, exposure surgery. The prognosis will vary according to the diagnosis of the lesion, an individual's response and a need for reintervention. Therefore, diagnosis and prognosis are essential for the treatment of endo-periodontal lesions. (AU)

O estudo teve como objetivo analisar descritivamente por meio de revisão de literatura integrativa, o medo de pacientes frente ao tratamento odontológico, com a investigação crítica voltada para o Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) Brasileiro. Um dos obstáculos relatados, por cirurgiões-dentistas, nas consultas odontológicas é o medo que uma parcela dos pacientes apresenta frente aos procedimentos durante as sessões de atendimento. Procurou-se apontar como o medo se manifesta e descrever as consequências e prevenção desta condição. A busca dos artigos foi realizada no portal de periódicos da BVS e todas as publicações que continham o descritor em Ciências da Saúde "Ansiedade ao Tratamento Odontológico" foram consultadas. Não obstante, a busca foi refinada para periódicos com texto completo disponível e no idioma português, com o assunto principal o medo frente ao tratamento odontológico, entre os anos de 2013 a 2017. As manifestações relacionadas ao medo de dentista no campo biológico e psicológico têm como consequência a abstenção às consultas odontológicas e a piora da condição bucal dos usuários. Cabe aos profissionais conhecer de maneira ampla os seus pacientes para que consigam lidar com os aspectos psicossociais inerentes e indissociáveis a esses indivíduos (AU)

RESUMO

O objetivo dessa revisão de literatura é verificar as estratégias de tratamento das lesões endo-periodontais. Foi realizada uma busca na literatura, nas seguintes bases de dados: Medline, Crochane, PubMed e Scielo, contendo artigos científicos dos últimos dez anos nos idiomas inglês e português usando os termos de pesquisa: "Tratamento" E/OU "Lesões Endo-periodontal" E/OU "doença periodontal" E/OU "Endodontia". As lesões endo-peridontais são caracterizadas pela interação doença periodontal e endodôntica e são patologias de difícil diagnóstico clínico. Seu tratamento consiste na terapia endodôntica, terapia periodontal ou ambas. Os tratamentos empregados para as lesões são: Lesões endodônticas primárias: apenas tratamento endodôntico. Lesão endodôntica primária com envolvimento periodontal secundário: primeiramente tratamento endodôntico e após periodontal. Lesão periodontal primária: apenas tratamento periodontal. Lesão periodontal primária com envolvimento endodôntico secundário: primeiramente endodôntico, na sequência periodontal. Lesões verdadeiras combinadas: necessidade de tratamento endodôntico inicial e em seguida periodontal. Uma vez que o tratamento endodôntico tenha sido eficiente, o prognóstico do tratamento dessas lesões depende da severidade da doença periodontal e da resposta dos tecidos periodontais ao tratamento (AU)

The objective of this literature review is to verify the strategies of treatment of the endo-periodontal lesions. A literature search was conducted in the following databases: Medline, Crochane, PubMed and Scielo, containing scientific articles of the last ten years in the English and Portuguese languages using the search terms: "Treatment" AND/OR "Periodontal-endodontic lesions" AND/OR "Periodontal diseases" AND/ OR "endodontic". Endo-periodontal lesions are characterized by the interaction of periodontal and/ or endodontic disease. These are pathologies difficult to diagnose clinically. Their treatment consists of endodontic therapy, periodontal therapy or both. The treatments used for the lesions are: Primary endodontic lesions: only endodontic treatment. Primary endodontic lesion with secondary periodontal involvement: Firstly endodontic treatment and after periodontal treatment. Periodontal lesion primary: only periodontal treatment. Primary periodontal lesion with secondary endodontic involvement: Firstly endodontic, in the periodontal sequence. True true lesions combined: Need for initial and then periodontal endodontic treatment. Since endodontic treatment has been effective, the prognosis of treatment of these complex lesions depends on the severity of periodontal disease and the response of periodontal tissues to treatment (AU)
