Foram selecionados 114 dentes sendo que seis deles foram deixados intatos para se avaliar a rugosidade do esmalte sem nenhum tipo de tratamento e os demais receberam preparos cavitários no terço médio da face vestibular, sendo restaurados conforme instruções do fabricante. Os corpos de prova foram armazenados em água destilada, em estufa a 370, por 24 horas, após o que receberam acabamento e polimento. Após estes procedimentos os corpos de prova foram analisados num rugosímetro Perthometer S8P (Perthen, Mahr, Germany) e os dados obtidos foram analisados estatisticamente. De acordo com os resultados pudemos verificar que a resina composta apresenta menor rugosidade que o cimento de ionômero vítreo; que o esmalte adjacente às restaurações tomou-se mais liso que o esmalte íntegro: as brocas multilaminadas mostraram menores valores de rugosidade quando comparadas às pontas diamantadas, com diferença estatisticamente significante; nenhum dos procedimentos de acabamento e polimento empregados foi satisfatório para o cimento de ionômero vítreo, que apresentou os maiores valores de rugosidade média e são necessárias novas investigações sobre acabamento e polimento desses materiais, assim como pesquisas sobre o próprio material para que possamos vir a ter restaurações com melhor qualidade de superfície / Abstract: The purpose of this "in vitro" study was to evaluate the surface texture of two aesthetic restorative materials: a composite resin TPH (Dentsply) and a polyacid-modified composite VariGlass (Dentsply). as well as the adjacent enamel to these restorations, after polishing and finishing procedures with diamond points, with eight and twelve blade trimming and finishing burs, with a green silicone tip, with a diamond polishing past and with an association of the last two procedures. We have selected 114 teeth, six of wich received neither polishing nor finishing procedures, with the purpose of evaluating the enamel roughness. The remaining teeth received cavity preparations on the buccal surfaces and were restored following the manufacture' s instructions. The specimens were kept for 24 hours in destiled water at 37° C and only then polishing and finishing procedures were performed. Profilometric analyses were carried out using a Perthometer S8P (Perthen, Mahr, Germany) and the collected data were statísticaly analysed. The results showed that the composite resin presented less surface roughness than the polyacid-modified composite, that the enamel adjacent to the restorations became smoother than the sound enamel; that the eight and twelve blade burs promoted surfaces less roughen than the diamond points, with statisticaly meaningful difference. None of the finishing and polishing procedures demonstrated to be satisfactory for the glass ionomer cement. Researches concerning the finishing and polishing of this material are necessary, as well as the material itself: so that better surface texture restorations could be obtained / Doutor

Orientador: Francisco Pedro Monteiro da Silva Filho / Resumo: Por muitos anos a profissão odontológica tem procurado um material estético para substituir as ligas de amálgama. Recentemente, têm aparecido no comércio as resinas compostas para dentes posteriores indicadas para restaurações onde não há incidência de forças mastigatórias. Tais resinas têm, porém, apresentado falhas, e, entre elas, a infiltração marginal, que tem enorme importância, pois é responsável pela sensibilidade pós-operatória, manchamento e ocorrência de cáries secundárias com consequentes alterações patológicas da polpa. Este trabalho teve a finalidade de estudar ''in vitro'' a infiltração marginal, a nível cervical, de restaurações classe II com as resinas posteriores quimicamente ativadas P10 e fotoativadas P30, em dois tipos de cavidades: convencional e adesiva. Foi verificado também o efeito do condicionamento ácido nesta região. A pesquisa foi realizada em dentes pré-molares recentemente extraídos por motivo ortodôntico, e para obter cavidades padronizadas os preparos foram feitos com a utilização de um microscópio modificado por GABRIELLI e cols.25 Foi utilizado adesivo dentinário (Scotchbond) em todos grupos experimentais. A infiltração foi evidenciada por meio do corante Rodamina B, após ciclagem térmica entre as temperaturas 10°C e 50°C, e analisada seguindo o critério de HIRSCH e WEINREB37, modificado, com auxílio de uma lupa estereoscópica ZEISS com 10 aumentos. Pelos resultados obtidos, pudemos verificar que: 1- Ocorreu infiltração marginal a nível cervical em 77,5% das restaurações de cavidades convencionais e em 47,5% das cavidades adesivas. 2- A maior percentagem de infiltração, independentemente dos fatores em estudo, ocorreu sempre no nível 3, ou seja, com infiltração até a parede axial. 3- Tanto a resina quimicamente ativada quanto a fotoativada permitiram a mesma infiltração. 4- O condicionamento ... / Abstract: For many years the dental profession has sought an esthetic material to replace the amalgam alloys. Recently composite resins for posterior teeth have been introduced into the marketplace. The manufacturers claimed that these materials are indicated for stress-bearing restoration. However. such resins have presented some limitations such as marginal leakage which has great clinical importance because it is responsible for postoperative sensitivity, and occurence of secundary caries followed by pathological changes of the pulp. The purpose of this ''in vitro'' study was to investigate the cervical marginal leakage in class II restorations with chemically cured resin - PlO - and light- cured resin - P30 - in two types of cavities: conventional and adhesive. The effect of acid-etching in this area was also observed. The cavities were prepared in premolar teeth, recently extracted for orthodontic purposes, using a Microscope Modified by GABRIELLI and cols.25, in order to obtain standardized cavities. Dentine adhesive (Scotchbond) was used in all experimental groups Leakage was evidenced by Rodamina B dye penetration after thermocycling procedure between 10°C and 50ºC temperature and analysed according to HIRSCH g WEINREB modified criterion by using ZEISS Stereoscopic Magnifying Glass (10x). According to the results, we should concluded that: 1- Cervical marginal leakage occurred to 77,5% of conventional cavities restorations and 47,5% of adhesives cavities. 2- The major percents of leakage, regardless the factors studied, always occurred at level 3, that is, with leakage up to axial wall. 3- Either chemically cured resin or light - cured resin presented the same leakage. 4- The acid-etching reduced from 70% to 55% the leakage percentage observed. 5- The leakage observed for adhesive or conventional cavities continued when chemically cured resin or light- cured resin was used. 6- Acid-etching... / Doutor

Acta Neuropsychiatrica, 16(3), 142-148. Jones, L. (1999). Dental amalgam and health experience: Exploring health outcomes and issues for people medically diagnosed with mercury poisoning. The Bulletin, 97, 29-33. / The longstanding debate over the safety of mercury in dentistry has latterly moved from scientific argument to public health dilemma. Mercury is a neurotoxin. Adverse psychological outcomes can result from exposure, so The Quicksilver Quest aimed to investigate mercury in dentistry from a qualitative, critical health psychology perspective, and a quantitative, neuropsychology assessment. The qualitative study used focus group methodology to explore micro-mercurialism linked to dental amalgam fillings. A random sample of people, who had been medically diagnosed with mercury poisoning, formed seven focus groups. The discussion of experiences, beliefs, and health was analysed for themes and issues. The main findings were that the participants were not a homogeneous group, as had been anticipated, but fell into categories differentiated by their symptoms, fiscal resources, and motivation. A placebo effect was rejected as an exclusive explanation for the positive health outcomes reported by those who had had amalgam removal and detoxification. The quantitative study investigated the long-term effects of occupational mercury exposure on a cohort of women in dentistry. The aim was to test the null hypothesis: that women who endured high occupational mercury exposure in the 1970s (43 participants), and matched controls (32 participants), would show no between-group differences on a general and reproductive health survey, and a nine-test neurobehavioural assessment. Results generally supported accepting the null hypothesis. Significant exceptions were current symptom experience, reproductive health, and two mood subscales. There was a suggestion of peripheral nerve damage in the exposed group. Overall, the general discussion systematically reviews tension points in the debate, in light of a proposed model of tolerance to mercury. This begins to explain how it might appear that mercury in dentistry is safe for dental personnel, as pro-amalgam debaters claim, yet unsafe for some dental patients, as anti-amalgam debaters claim. Further study is suggested for occupationally exposed women, on tremor, and to test the proposed tolerance to mercury model. Finally, as the debate has a political aspect, a recommendation is made for a shift in public health policy to dental amalgam being restricted to use only in an adult population.

Les soins pulpaires en denture lactéale sont les soins fréquemment réalisés en odontologie pédiatrique et la réaction pulpaire ainsi que les mécanismes de réparation tissulaire lors d’un traumatisme ne sont pas très bien connus ou investigués. En se référant à la littérature dentaire, on constate que les recherches sont souvent focalisées sur la denture définitive.<p>Objectifs<p>1) Etudier l’influence du traitement avec divers matériaux sur la formation dentinaire, la structure tissulaire et le degré d’inflammation.<p>2) Acquérir des connaissances sur l’interaction à l’interface matériau/tissu.<p>3) Etudier le rôle de la voie de signalisation Notch (1 et 2) dans le processus de remaniement et réparation du tissu pulpaire en cas de traumatisme.<p>Matériels et méthodes<p>Deux types de soins pulpaires, la pulpotomie et le coiffage direct, sont réalisés sur les dents lactéales porcines et les résultats sont étudiés après 3 périodes :7 jours, 21-28 jours et 90 jours.<p>La pulpotomie :8 matériaux, 10 dents par matériau, 2 matériaux par cochon et par période pour un total de 240 dents.<p>Le coiffage direct :10 matériaux, 10 dents par matériau, 2 matériaux par cochon et par période pour un total de 300 dents.<p>Par la suite, différentes techniques ont été utilisées :<p>1. La microscopie optique :étude des coupes histologiques après coloration.<p>2. La microscopie électronique à transmission :observer les caractéristiques morphologiques du tissu pulpaire et analyser les structures cellulaires en détail. L’objectif principal de cette recherche était centré sur les biomatériaux pour la période de 21-28 jours afin d’examiner l’interaction entre le biomatériau et le complexe dentino-pulpaire après leur placement.<p>12<p>3. La voie de signalisation Notch (1 et 2): investiguer l’intervention éventuelle de cette voie dans le processus de régénération tissulaire par différenciation des cellules pour les deux périodes de 7 et 21-28 jours pour tous les matériaux utilisés.<p>Résultats<p>A. Microscopie optique :<p>1. La pulpotomie :les biomatériaux provoquent moins d’infiltrat de cellules inflammatoires au niveau du tissu pulpaire et favorisent la déposition dentinaire.<p>2. Le coiffage direct :on obtient les mêmes résultats que dans le cadre de la pulpotomie.<p>B. Microscopie électronique en transmission :<p>1. L’induction du tissu calcifié ou la formation de néo-dentine s’est seulement produite au niveau du site de l’exposition après le placement des biomatériaux dans les 2 types du traitement (pulpotomie & coiffage direct). En revanche aucune formation du tissu calcifié n’a été observée dans le parenchyme pulpaire à distance du site de l’exposition.<p>2. Cet examen montre que les cellules en contact des biomatériaux ou même à proximité de ces derniers présentent un réticulum endoplasmique élargi parallèle à la longueur de la cellule. Des mitochondries, plusieurs appareils de Golgi et des éléments denses sont observés dans le cytoplasme cellulaire.<p>3. Cet examen a également montré que le MTA et le WPC, considérés par la littérature dentaire comme non-résorbables, sont phagocytés par les cellules histiocytaires.<p>C. Voie de signalisation de Notch :<p>Nos recherches n’ont pas montré de marquage concluant pour aucun de matériaux sauf dans le cadre de coiffage direct pour les dents traitées au MTA et Ca(OH)2 pour la période de 7 jours. Par contre, aucun marquage n’est observé après 21-28 jours. / Doctorat en Sciences dentaires / info:eu-repo/semantics/nonPublished
