Este trabalho teve o objetivo de avaliar a capacidade da bactéria Enterococcus faecalis em induzir periodontite apical no modelo experimental canino; verificar se o preparo químico-mecânico afeta a sobrevivência dessa bactéria no sistema de canais radiculares e avaliar o reparo desses dentes por meio de radiografia periapical e tomografia computadorizada cone beam. Dentes com e sem tratamento endodôntico foram avaliados por meio de microscopia confocal de varredura a laser. Para tal, foram utilizados 2 cães. A bactéria Enterococcus faecalis foi inoculada nos canais de 4 pré-molares superiores, 11 prémolares inferiores e 9 incisivos superiores. As câmaras pulpares foram seladas e, após 60 dias, os canais das raízes distais dos pré-molares e de 7 incisivos superiores foram submetidos a tratamento endodôntico em sessão única e os canais das raízes mesiais dos pré-molares e 2 incisivos superiores foram deixados sem tratamento (controle). Amostras microbiológicas foram feitas antes e após o preparo químico-mecânico. O reparo foi avaliado após 6 meses do tratamento mediante radiografias periapicais e por tomografia computadorizada cone beam. A comparação entre as imagens obtidas após o período experimental pelos 2 métodos foi feita por medições da área em mm2 de cada lesão encontrada, utilizando o software ImageTool Os resultados mostraram que a presença de periodontite apical crônica foi verificada em todos os dentes inoculados, independentemente da colonização pela bactéria Enterococcus faecalis ou pela flora mista. O preparo químico-mecânico reduziu significativamente o número de bactérias no interior dos canais radiculares (p<0.05). Os resultados radiográficos e tomográficos demonstraram lesões de menor diâmetro nos dentes tratados endodonticamente em comparação ao grupo controle (p<0.05). A comparação entre os métodos demonstrou diferença estatística entre eles sendo evidenciada áreas radiolúcidas maiores utilizando a tomografia cone beam em comparação com a radiografia periapical (p<0.05). Concluiu-se que a bactéria Enterococcus faecalis induziu periodontite apical crônica similarmente à flora mista; o tratamento endodôntico reduziu o número de bactérias cultiváveis significativamente embora sem relação com o reparo radiográfico. Os dentes tratados em sessão única apresentavam lesões menores em comparação aos não-tratados e as áreas das lesões observadas na TC cone beam foram maiores do que as áreas encontradas nas radiografias periapicais. A microscopia confocal e o método proposto neste estudo se mostraram eficazes para determinar, qualitativamente, a viabilidade bacteriana e a distribuição de ácidos nucléicos bacterianos dentro dos túbulos dentinários. Houve diferença entre a dentina infectada in vitro com o padrão de infecção in vivo, caracterizada pela presença de biofilmes aderidos à parede do canal radicular. / The aims of this study were to evaluate the Enterococcus faecalis ability to induce apical periodontitis in dogs root canals, to verify the bacterias ability to survive to the cleaning and shaping procedures and to assess the healing of the induced apical periodontitis by periapical radiograph and cone beam computed tomography. Also, endodontically treated and non-treated teeth were evaluated by confocal laser scanning microscope. Two mongrel dogs were used in the experiment. Enterococcus faecalis strain was inoculated into the root canals of 4 maxillary premolars, 11 mandibular premolars and 9 maxillary incisors. After 60 days the root canals of the distal roots of the mandibular and maxillary pre-molars and 7 maxillary incisors were endodontically treated. The premolars mesial root canal and 2 maxillary incisors were used as control (no treatment). Microbiologic samples were done after and before the cleaning and shaping procedure. The healing was evaluated after 6 months by periapical radiographs and cone beam computed tomography. The comparison between obtained images after the experimental period by the two methods was done using measures of the lesion area in mm2 with ImageTool software. The results showed the presence of chronic apical periodontitis in every inoculated teeth, with Enterococcus faecalis or mixed infection. The cleaning and shaping procedures reduced the number of bacteria of the root canals (p<0.05). The radiographic and tomographic results showed the lower diameter lesion in endodontically treated teeth than in the control group (p<0.05). The comparison between the methods showed statistical difference and greater radiolucent areas were evident in cone beam computed tomography images (p<0.05). It is possible to conclude that the bacteria Enterococcus faecalis induced chronic apical periodontitis as well as the mixed microflora; the endodontic treatment reduced the number of cultivable bacteria in a significant way, but with no relation to the radiographic healing. The treated teeth in only one session presented smaller lesions in comparison to the non-treated teeth and the lesions area in cone beam computed tomography were bigger than the areas found in periapical radiograph. The confocal microscopy and the proposed method of this study showed to be efficient to determine the bacterial ability and the distribution of bacterial nucleic acids inside the dentin tubules. There was difference between in vitro infected dentin with the in vivo infection pattern, which presents biofilm attached to the root canal walls.

O objetivo neste estudo foi avaliar a correlação entre alterações endoperiodontais (doença periodontal e necrose pulpar) e a proximidade dos dentes maxilares posteriores ao assoalho do seio maxilar com a presença de sinusite maxilar crônica. Foram selecionados 83 pacientes (159 seios maxilares), que foram submetidos ao exame clínico dentário para avaliar a mobilidade dentária e a condição pulpar do dente. Realizou-se, também, o exame de tomografia computadorizada de feixe cônico para verificar a presença de lesão periapical, perda óssea periodontal e mensurar a distância dos ápices radiculares à cortical do seio maxilar. Os seios maxilares foram divididos em dois grupos: GCSM- com sinusite maxilar crônica; GSSM- sem sinusite. A associação entre as alterações endoperiodontais e a proximidade dos dentes com o assoalho do seio maxilar em relação à presença ou ausência de SMC foi analisada pelo teste Qui-quadrado (p < 0,05). A regressão logística binária foi utilizada para avaliar os fatores associados à SMC (p < 0,05). Os resultados mostraram que a mobilidade dentária teve associação positiva com a sinusite maxilar, aumentando em 3,45 vezes, a chance de desenvolvimento da doença (p < 0,05). O GCSM está associado a dentes com alterações endoperiodontais próximos ao seio maxilar, enquanto no GSSM, os dentes com alterações endoperiodontais estavam mais distantes do seio maxilar (p < 0,05). À medida que o dente distancia-se do assoalho do seio maxilar, a chance de apresentar sinusite maxilar reduz 2,5 vezes (p = 0,003). Concluiu-se que a doença periodontal e a proximidade de dentes com o seio maxilar estão associadas à sinusite maxilar crônica, tornando-se necessária uma maior interação entre cirurgiões-dentistas e médicos otorrinolaringologistas na busca de uma maior eficácia no tratamento da doença. / The proximity of the roots of maxillary posterior teeth to the maxillary sinus floor can be associated with the development of chronic maxillary sinusitis (CMS). Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation between odontogenic endoperiodontal change conditions and the proximity of the maxillary posterior teeth to the floor of the maxillary sinus and the presence of chronic maxillary sinusitis. A total of 83 patients (159 maxillary sinuses) were selected and underwent clinical dental examination to assess tooth mobility and tooth pulp condition. In addition, cone beam computed tomography was performed to evaluate the presence of periapical lesions, periodontal bone loss and measure the distance from the root apices to the cortical of the maxillary sinus. . The maxillary sinuses were divided into two groups: GCMS- chronic maxillary sinusitis and GNMS- no maxillary sinusitis. The association between the endoperiodontal changes and the proximity with the maxillary sinus floor in relation to presence or absence of SMC was analyzed by Chisquare test (p < 0.05). Binary logistic regression was used to evaluate the factors associated with the SMC (p < 0.05). The results showed that tooth mobility was positively associated with chronic sinusitis, leading to a 3.45-fold increased association of developing the disorder (p < 0.05). GCMS is associated with teeth with endoperiodontal changes near the maxillary sinus, whereas teeth with endoperiodontal changes were more distant from the maxillary sinus in GNMS (p < 0.05). To the extent that the tooth is more distant from the maxillary sinus floor, the chance risk of presenting chronic sinusitis is reduced up to 2.5-fold (p < 0.05). In conclusion, tooth mobility and proximity to the maxillary sinus are associated with cases of chronic maxillary sinusitis, requiring better interactions between dental surgeons and an otolaryngologyspecialists in pursuit of greater effectiveness in the treatment of the disorder.

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / Endodontic regeneration treatment of necrotic immature teeth has gained popularity in recent years. The approach suggests a biological alternative to induce a continuous root development. In this project, three in vitro experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of three medicaments used in endodontic regeneration on mechanical properties and chemical structure of radicular dentin. In the first experiment, we investigated longitudinally the effect of medicaments on the indentation properties of the root canal surface of immature teeth using a novel BioDent reference point indenter. A significant difference in the majority of indentation parameters between all groups was found after one-week and one-month application of medicaments (p<0.0001): triple antibiotic paste (TAP) > double antibiotic paste (DAP) > control > calcium hydroxide [Ca(OH)2]. The four-week exposure of dentin to TAP and DAP caused 43% and 31% increase in total indentation distance outcome, respectively. In the second experiment, we investigated longitudinally the effect of medicaments on the chemical structure of immature radicular dentin by measuring the phosphate/amide I ratios of dentin using Attenuated Total Reflection Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy. Phosphate/amide I ratios were significantly different between the four groups after one week, two weeks and four week application of medicaments (p<0.0001): Ca(OH)2-treated dentin > untreated dentin > DAP-treated dentin > TAP-treated dentin. In the third experiment, we investigated longitudinally the effect of medicaments on root fracture resistance and microhardness of radicular dentin. For the microhardness, the two-way interaction between group and time was significant (p<0.001). TAP and DAP caused a significant and continuous decrease in dentin microhardness after one and three month application, respectively. The three-month intracanal application of Ca(OH)2 significantly increased the microhardness of root dentin. The time factor had a significant effect on fracture resistance (p<0.001). All medicaments caused significant decrease in fracture resistance ranging between 19%-30% after three month application compared to one week application. The three medicaments used in endodontic regeneration caused significant change in the chemical integrity of the superficial radicular dentin and significantly affected the indentation properties of the root canal surface. Furthermore, the three month intracanal application of medicaments significantly reduced the fracture resistance of roots.
