ACCURACY OF CONE-BEAM COMPUTERIZED TOMOGRAPHY IN DETERMINING THE THICKNESS OF THE PALATAL MASTICATORY MUCOSAHardison, Justin 23 April 2012 (has links)
BACKGROUND: The aim was to compare the thickness of the palatal masticatory mucosa as determined on a cone-beam computerized (CBCT) scan versus thickness determined via bone-sounding. METHODS: A total of twenty patients requiring palatal surgery participated. Thickness of the palatal tissue was measured at various points radiographically and clinically. The two techniques were compared to determine the agreement of the two measurement modalities. RESULTS: Analysis of variance determined that there was no significant difference between the two methods. A small bias of the radiographic measurement being larger was found to be statistically significant (0.09 ± 0.69mm; p <0.0001). Moreover, the tissue thickness was shown to increase as the distance from the gingival margin increased and the tissue over the molars was thinner than the tissue over the premolars. CONCLUSIONS: CBCT can be used to accurately determine the soft tissue thickness of the palatal masticatory mucosa with minimal bias.

O objetivo neste estudo foi comparar modelos de prototipagem, originados a partir de dados obtidos em exames de tomografia volumétrica (TV) e tomografia computadorizada (TC), a fim de verificar a precisão de reprodutibilidade destas tecnologias. Uma mandíbula seca foi submetida aos exames de TV (NewTom 9000? QR, Itália) e TC (Select SP-Elscint, Israel). Os dados obtidos nos exames foram manipulados em dois sistemas de tratamento de imagem, o 3D- Analyze (Mayo Clinic, E.U.A.) e o InVesalius (CenPRA, Brasil) e confeccionados protótipos, em duas diferentes tecnologias (SLS - sinterização seletiva a laser e 3DP - impressão tridimensional). A mandíbula seca (padrão ouro) e os oito conjuntos de protótipos gerados, sendo I-TC-Analyze?3DP; II-TC-Invesalius?3DP; III-TC-Analyze?SLS; IVTC- Invesalius-SLS; V-TV-Analyze?3DP; VI-TV-Invesalius?3DP; VIII-TV-Analyze? SLS; VIII-TV-Invesalius-SLS, foram submetidos a processos de engenharia reversa com a finalidade de digitalizar as superfícies dos objetos para uma comparação de cada modelo de prototipagem produzido com o padrão ouro, com precisão de 0,001mm. Os desvios de até 1mm e até 2mm foram calculados, comparados e analisados estatisticamente os erros percentuais. Os modelos de prototipagem rápida originados por meio da obtenção de dados de exames de tomografia computadorizada são mais precisos que os modelos de prototipagem originados por meio de dados de exames de tomografia volumétrica. / The purpose of this study is to compare rapid prototyping models created from cone beam computerized tomography (CBCT) and multislice computerized tomography (CT) data, in order to verify the accuracy of these technologies. A dry skull mandible was submitted in a CBCT (NewTom ? QR, Italy) and CT (Select SP-Elscint, Israel) exams. The tomographies data were processed by two different Medical Image processing systems, 3D-Analyze (Mayo Clinic, U.S.A.) and InVesalius (CenPRA, Brazil). Rapid prototypes models were built in two different rapid prototyping technologies, 3D Printer (3DP) and Selective Laser Sintering (SLS). The dry skull mandible (gold standard) and the eight prototypes, as follows; I-CT-Analyze?3DP; IICT- Invesalius?3DP; III-CT-Analyze?SLS; IV-CT-Invesalius-SLS; V-CBCT-Analyze? 3DP; VI-CBCT-Invesalius?3DP; VIII-CBCT-Analyze?SLS; VIII-CBCT-Invesalius-SLS, were submitted to a reverse engineering process aimed to digitalize the surfaces of the objects to compare each rapid prototype model with the gold standard with a precision of 0.001mm. Percentage deviations errors until 1.0mm and 2.0mm were calculated, compared and statistically analyzed.

Analysis of skeletal and dental changes with a tooth-borne and a bone-borne maxillary expansion appliance assessed through digital volumetric imagingLagravere Vich, Manuel Oscar 11 1900 (has links)
The purpose of this research was to compare skeletal and dental changes assessed by digital volumetric images produced during and after rapid maxillary expansion (RME) between a bone-borne anchored expansion appliance and a conventional tooth-borne RME. Initial steps included the development of a methodology to analyze CBCT images. Reliability of traditional two dimensional (2D) cephalometric landmarks identified in CBCT images was explored, and new landmarks identifiable on the CBCT images were also evaluated. This methodology was later tested through a clinical trial with 62 patients where skeletal and dental changes found after maxillary expansion using either a bone-borne or tooth-borne maxillary expander and compared to a non-treated control group. The conclusions that were obtained from this thesis were that the NewTom 9” and 12” three dimensional (3D) images present a 1-to-1 ratio with real coordinates, linear and angular distances obtained by a coordinate measurement machine (CMM). Landmark intra- and inter-reliability (ICC) was high for all CBCT landmarks and for most of the 2D lateral cephalometric landmarks. Foramen Spinosum, foramen Ovale, foramen Rotundum and the Hypoglossal canal all provided excellent intra-observer reliability and accuracy. Midpoint between both foramen Spinosums (ELSA) presented a high intra-reliability and is an adequate landmark to be used as a reference point in 3D cephalometric analysis. ELSA, both AEM and DFM points presented a high intra-reliability when located on 3D images. Minor variations in location of these landmarks produced unacceptable uncertainty in coordinate system alignment. The potential error associated with location of distant landmarks is unacceptable for analysis of growth and treatment changes. Thus, an alternative is the use of vectors. Selection of landmarks for use in 3D image analysis should follow certain characteristics and modifications in their definitions should be applied. When measuring 3D maxillary complex structural changes during maxillary expansion treatments using CBCT, both tooth-anchored and bone-anchored expanders presented similar results. The greatest changes occurred in the transverse dimension while changes in the vertical and antero-posterior dimension were negligible. Dental expansion was also greater than skeletal expansion. Bone-anchored maxillary expanders can be considered as an alternative choice for tooth-anchored maxillary expanders. / Medical Sciences in Orthodontics

Morfologia craniofacial e sua associação com o comprometimento funcional em adolescentes com paralisia cerebral / Craniofacial morphology and its association with functional impairment in adolescents with cerebral palsyYogi, Helena Emiko Tunouti 29 January 2014 (has links)
Este estudo objetivou aprofundar o conhecimento sobre a morfologia óssea craniofacial de jovens com Paralisia Cerebral, e associá-la ao comprometimento funcional geral e a função motora orofacial. Utilizamos uma amostra pareada por gênero e idade, constituída de 21 adolescentes com Paralisia Cerebral (GE) com idade média de 14,7(2,6) anos para o gênero feminino e 13,9(2,8) anos para o gênero masculino, e 22 adolescentes normorreativos (GC) com idade média de 14,6(2,6) anos para o gênero feminino e 14,8 (3,8) anos para o gênero masculino. Foram realizadas análises das imagens obtidas por Tomografia Computadorizada Feixe Cônico e software OsiriX, através da mensuração de medidas lineares e angulares. A avaliação da função motora geral foi dada pela aplicação do instrumento Gross Motor Functional Classification System (GMFCS). O instrumento para avaliação da motricidade oral aplicado neste estudo foi o OMAS (Oral Motor Assessment Scale). Quando comparado os grupos estudo e controle, as medidas que exibiram valores estatisticamente significantes foram Co-Pg (p=0,060), ENA-N (p=0,2), N-Me (p=0,088), N.A.Pg (p=0,04) e S.N.B (p=0,11). O GE apresentou uma tendência de perfil mais convexo, indicado pelo ângulo N.A.Pg, menor do que no GC (GE:168,48 (8,05)/GC:172,77(5,21)). A medida Co-Pg menor (GE:106,36(6,08)/GC:107,94(9,45)), analisada juntamente com o ângulo S.N.B menor (GE:79,69(4,24)/GC:81,21(6,33)), indicam a mandíbula ligeiramente menor e mais retruída nos adolescentes com PC em relação ao GC. A medida N-B (p=0,035) foi estatisticamente significante e inversamente proporcional ao OMAS. Não houve relação estatisticamente significante entre o comprometimento motor geral e qualquer uma das medidas angulares e lineares no GE. Podemos concluir que a morfologia craniofacial em adolescentes com PC é diversa à de adolescentes normorreativos em algumas medidas, que não houve associação entre comprometimento motor geral e crescimento craniofacial de adolescentes com a PC e que a função motora orofacial de menor score está associada a um rosto mais longo. / This study aimed to deepen understanding of the craniofacial bone morphology of young people with cerebral palsy, and associate it to the general functional impairment and the orofacial motor function. We use a matched sample by gender and age , consisting of 21 adolescents with cerebral palsy (SG) , with a mean age of 14.7 years (2.6) for females and 13.9 years (2.8) for males , and a control group (CG), composed of 23 normoreactive adolescents with a mean age of 14.6 years (2.6) for females and 14.8 years (3.8) for males . Analysis of images obtained by CT Cone Beam and OsiriX software were performed, through the measurement of some linear and angular measurements. The evaluation of overall motor function was given by application of the instrument Gross Motor Functional Classification System (GMFCS). The instrument to evaluate oral motor applied in this study was the OMAS (Oral Motor Assessment Scale). When comparing the study and control groups, the measures showed statistically significant values were Co - Pg (p=0.060), ENA - N (p=0.2), N -Me (p=0.088), NAPg (p=0 04) and SNB (p= 0.11). The SG showed a tendency to a more convex profile, indicated by lower NAPg angle (GE: 168.48 (8.05) / GC: 172.77 (5.21)). The smaller linear measure Co - Pg (GE: 106.36 (6.08) / GC : 107.94 (9.45)) , analyzed along with smaller SNB angle (GE : 79.69 (4.24) / GC : 81.21 (6.33)), indicates a slightly smaller and more retruded mandible in adolescents with CP compared to the CG . NB (p=0,035) was statistically significantly and inversely proportional to the OMAS. There was no statistically significant relationship between generalized motor impairment and any of the angular and linear measurements in SG. We can conclude that the craniofacial morphology in adolescents with CP is different to the normoreactive teens in some measurements , that there was no overall association between motor impairment and craniofacial growth of adolescents with CP and orofacial motor function is associated with a longer face.

Retratamento endodôntico: casuística e comparação de dois métodos de diagnóstico por imagem / Endodontic retreatment: case studies and comparison of two methods of diagnosis by imagePenna, Livia Maria Vieira Rodrigues 28 March 2011 (has links)
O exame radiográfico é um componente de diagnóstico essencial no plano de tratamento de problemas de origem endodôntica. Apesar do desenvolvimento técnico-científico da endodontia, o número de retratamentos endodônticos continua elevado. Neste cenário, a tomografia computadorizada de feixe cônico (TCFC) é utilizada para se obter imagens tridimensionais sem distorções de estruturas pertencentes ao complexo dento-maxilo-facial e seus tecidos adjacentes. Frente aos fatos, este estudo teve como objetivos comparar a incidência de retratamento endodôntico nos anos de 1997, 2001 e 2007 de pacientes atendidos nas clínicas de endodontia da FOB. Foi analisado e quantificado o total de casos de retratamento de canais, os grupos de dentes mais envolvidos, sua distribuição segundo o gênero, relacionando-se também os possíveis motivos dessa ocorrência; comparar dois métodos de diagnóstico por imagem em odontologia, a tomografia computadorizada de feixe cônico e a radiografia periapical. A comparação foi realizada por dois EXAMINADORES, um endodontista e outro radiologista, os quais analisaram as 102 imagens geradas dos exames de 41 pacientes com a necessidade de retramento endodôntico. Não houve aumento na incidência nos três períodos estudados; houve predomínio para o sexo feminino; o retratamento ocorreu em maior número para o dente incisivo central superior e como motivo para sua realização, a maior incidência foi para obturação endodôntica aquém do limite CDC. Quanto à comparação dos exames por imagem, a TCFC revelou-se o procedimento de maior concordância de diagnóstico entre os profissionais, fato que aponta tal método relevante na concretização do diagnóstico, localização e reconstrução de imagens de ótima resolução, contribuindo com os profissionais no planejamento e no sucesso terapêutico, diminuindo a possibilidade de falhas e o consequente insucesso do tratamento endodôntico. / The radiographic test is an essential diagnosis component in the treatment of problems of endodontic origin. Despite the technical and scientific developments in endodontics, the number of endodontic retreatment continues high. In this scenario, Computerized Beam Cone Tomography (CBCT) is used to obtain three-dimensional images without distortions of structures belonging to the dentomaxillofacial complex and its adjacent tissues. The CBCT allows a precocious detection of the dimension and extension of periapical and resorptive diseases, even before they appear in periapical radiographs. In face of such facts, this study aimed at comparing the incidence of endodontic retreatment in 1997, 2001 and 2007 in patients assisted at FOBs endodontic clinics. For this end, all cases of root canal retreatment were analyzed and quantified, as well as the group of teeth with higher incidence, the distribution according to gender, including a survey of the possible reasons for such occurrence, compare two methods of diagnosis by image in endodontics, the Computerized Beam Cone Tomography and the periapical radiograph. Such comparison was performed by two examiners, an endodontist and a radiologist, who analyzed the 102 images obtained from 41 cases of endodontic retreatment assisted at FOB between 2008 and 2009. For this comparison, a questionnaire about the main findings detected in the images was used. There was no increase in incidence in the three periods on focus and a higher incidence among females; the tooth with higher incidence for retreatment was the maxillary central incisor. The main reason for retreatment was endodontic restoration beneath cement-dentin-root canal limit. As for the comparison of tests by image, CBCT showed to be the procedure of higher concordance of diagnosis among the professionals, what indicates that this method is relevant in the diagnosis, localization and reconstruction of images of fairly good resolution, helping professionals with therapeutic planning and success, reducing the possibility of errors and the consequent failure of the endodontic treatment.

Expansão rápida e lenta da maxila em pacientes com fissura labiopalatina completa e bilateral: avaliação por meio da tomografia computadorizada cone-beam / Rapid and slow maxillary expansion in patients with complete bilateral cleft lip and palate: assessment based on cone-beam computerized tomographyAlmeida, Arací Malagodi de 11 July 2014 (has links)
Objetivo: O objetivo deste trabalho consistiu em avaliar e comparar os efeitos dentoesqueléticos dos expansores maxilares Haas/Hyrax e quadrihélice, em pacientes com fissura labiopalatina completa e bilateral. Material e Métodos: A amostra do estudo foi composta por 46 pacientes com fissura labiopalatina completa e bilateral, operados na infância, com atresia do arco dentário superior, na fase de dentadura mista tardia. Os pacientes foram aleatoriamente divididos em dois grupos de estudo, tratados com expansão rápida da maxila (ERM), com aparelhos ortopédicos Haas ou Hyrax (Grupo I, n=23) e com expansão lenta da maxila (ELM) por meio de expansores tipo quadrihélice (Grupo II, n=23). O exame de tomografia computadorizada cone-beam (i-Cat, Hartsfield, PA, EUA) foi realizado imediatamente pré-expansão e no mínimo 4 meses após a expansão. Foram mensuradas, por meio do Software Nemoscan (Nemotec, Madri, Espanha) e de modo duplo-cego, as dimensões transversais maxilares, a inclinação dos dentes posteriores, a espessura das tábuas ósseas vestibular e lingual e o nível da crista óssea alveolar vestibular, nas duas fases do estudo. As alterações interfases foram avaliadas por meio do teste t pareado (p<0,05). A comparação das características iniciais de cada grupo de estudo, assim como, a comparação intergrupos do efeito da expansão, foram realizadas por meio do teste t independente (p<0,05). Resultados: Não houve diferença estatisticamente significante entre ERM e ELM para as alterações interfases em nenhuma das variáveis analisadas. A ERM e a ELM apresentaram efeitos ortopédicos semelhantes em pacientes com fissura labiopalatina completa e bilateral, com aumentos transversais decrescentes do nível do arco dentário em direção à cavidade nasal. Ambas as modalidades de expansão ocasionaram inclinação vestibular dos dentes posteriores em magnitudes semelhantes e incitaram suaves reduções da espessura da tábua óssea vestibular (0,57mm) e do nível da crista óssea vestibular (0,54mm), sem significância clínica. Conclusão: Tanto a ERM quanto a ELM foram efetivas para produzir efeitos ortopédicos na maxila em crianças com fissura completa e bilateral, causando movimentos de inclinação vestibular dos molares, porém sem repercussões nas tábuas ósseas vestibulares ou no nível das cristas marginais. / Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate and to compare the dentoskeletal effects of the Haas/Hyrax and Quadhelix maxillary expanders in patients with complete bilateral cleft lip and palate. Material and Method: The study sample was comprised of 46 patients with complete bilateral cleft lip and palate, operated on during childhood, with constriction of the upper dental arch, in the late mixed dentition. The patients were randomly divided into two groups and treated with a rapid maxillary expansion (RME) with the Haas or Hyrax orthopedic expander (Group I, n=23) and with a slow maxillary expansion (SME) with the Quadhelix expander (Group II, n=23). The cone-beam computerized tomography (i-Cat, Hartsfield, PA, USA) was performed immediately prior to the expansion and at least 4 months post-expansion. Using the multiplanar reconstruction resource, the following measurements were evaluated with Nemoscan Software (Nemotec, Madrid, Spain) in a double-blind manner: maxillary transverse dimensions, inclination of the posterior teeth, thickness of the buccal and lingual bone plate and level of the buccal alveolar bone crest in both phases of the study. The interphase alterations were evaluated with the paired t test (p<0.05). The comparison of the initial characteristics of each study group as well as the intergroup comparison of the expansion effects were performed with the independent t test (p<0.05). The tested null hypothesis is that both expanders present similar dentoskeletal effects. Results: no statistically significant differences were found between RME and SME for the analyzed variables. RME and SME presented similar orthopedic effects in patients with complete bilateral cleft lip and palate, with the transverse increments decreasing from the dental arch level toward the nasal cavity. Both expansion devices produced similar buccal inclination of the posterior teeth and similar and mild reduction of the bone plate thickness (0.57 mm) and of the bucal bone crest (0.54 mm), with no clinical significance. Conclusion: Both RME and SME were effective in producing orthopedic effects on the maxilla, causing inclination and buccal movement of the molars without major consequences to the buccal bone plates or the marginal crests. The null hypothesis tested in the present study was confirmed. Both expanders presented similar dentoskeletal effects.
