This double-blind crossover randomized clinical trial compared the efficacy of 2 concentrations articaine, 2% (A2) and 4% (A4), with 1:200,000 epinephrine, for lower third molar removal. During separate appointments either A2 or A4, both similarly positioned molars in 46 volunteers were extracted. The following evaluated: onset duration anesthetic action on soft tissues, intraoperative bleeding, hemodynamic parameters, postoperative analgesia, mouth opening wound healing during 7th day,...

We compared the buccal infiltration of 4% articaine with 1 : 100,000 or 200,000 epinephrine without a palatal injection for extraction impacted maxillary third molars chronic pericoronitis. This prospective, double-blind, controlled clinical trial involved 30 patients between ages 15 and 46 years who desired partially upper molar Group (15 patients) received group 2 by infiltration. None in reported pain, but 3 which indicated need supplementary injection. The injections were all successful...

An 11-year-old girl presented to our department have a second opinion regarding lesion involving her left mandible. She had previously undergone several radiographic exams including panoramic, helical, and cone-beam computed tomography. Radiographic examinations revealed well-defined radiolucent region, which contained an irregular radiopaque mass of 3 cm in diameter, localized the angle Our presumptive diagnosis was complex odontoma. Excisional biopsy performed, microscopic features showed...

Panoramic radiographs are routinely employed for surgical planning of unerupted third molars. The objective this study was to evaluate distortions in the position mandibular molars on panoramic radiographs.Panoramic 14 patients with indication extraction were used. Transurgical impressions crowns teeth be extracted and adjacent second (n=19) achieved addition silicone poured type IV plaster comparison inclinations casts.There a mean difference -5.37 degrees between molar radiograph cast...

Actinomycosis of the paranasal sinuses is a rare occurrence and its clinical presentation does not suggest specific diagnosis. Therefore, actinomycosis should be included in differential diagnosis neoplasms granulomatous lesions head neck region. However, differentiation from malignant neoplasm easy because radiological findings are frequently similar positive cultures difficult to obtain. This report highlights progress associated with some computed tomography that can extremely helpful...

The aim of this study was to report the orthodontic-surgical approach a 21-year-old female patient diagnosed with cleidocranial dysplasia. An orthognathic surgery performed in maxilla and mandible during same procedure correct an existing dentofacial deformity (class III malocclusion). In addition, malar prostheses were used midface deficiency. After surgical intervention, orthodontic treatment continued order promote stability, function, aesthetics. Cases dysplasia treated defined criteria...

Abstract The primary aim of this paper is to present clinical and radiographic aspects odontogenic myxomas diagnosed at the Stomatology Clinic Bauru School Dentistry, University São Paulo, Brazil compare them with data reported in a series published literature. A second objective report case myxoma 9-year-old patient whom lesion involved anterior region maxilla. Dental records between 1975 2000 were reviewed seven cases as found individuals aged from nine 60 years. Of these, four occurred...

MÉTODOS: foram...

Objective . The current model of education has been suffering changes, undergoing renovations, and seeking using enjoying increasingly technological resources, as, for example, the Learning Management System (LMS). One most used LMS platforms is Modular Object Oriented Dynamic Environment (Moodle). This article proposes to demonstrate how Moodle platform was introduced in subject Stomatology through a clear objective methodology. Study Design In six months, 49 undergraduate students enrolled...

BACKGROUND: Dento-skeletal deformities are treated combining orthodontic treatment with orthognathic surgery. One of the techniques most used in this type surgery is sagittal osteotomy mandible. This technique offers many advantages, but within its disadvantages inferior alveolar nerve paresthesia. There various treatments that aim to recovery bundle, and one them low intensity laser treatment. The study was evaluate effectiveness therapy neurosensorial tissues after mandibular during...

The purpose of the present study was to investigate pharyngeal airway space (PAS) changes in class III patients receiving bimaxillary orthognathic surgery and correlate PAS volume minimum axial section with magnitude surgical movement. This research involved a retrospective sample composed 38 skeletal occlusions. Three-dimensional measurements were conducted. Cephalometric points used verify extent jaw-hyoid bone No significant differences found between pre postoperative total ( P = 0.280),...

O Ácido Hialurônico (AH) é muito utilizado no mundo da harmonização facial, seu uso requer alto conhecimento anatomia e técnica a ser utilizada momento de sua aplicação, embora seja um material seguro, pode gerar complicações. Neste contexto, o objetivo do presente artigo apresentar relato caso clínico uma paciente 29 anos idade que desenvolveu Edema Persistente Intermitente Tardio (ETIP), apresentou esse quadro ano após realizar preenchimento labial com AH, desencadeado durante episódio...

ABSTRACT Introduction: The probability of improvement in the upper airway space (UAS) with orthognathic surgery should be considered during surgical-orthodontic treatment decision, providing not only an esthetic, but also a functional benefit for patient. Objective: purpose this study was to evaluate 3D changes after maxillomandibular advancement (MMA). Methods: A retrospective analysis 56 patients, 21 male and 35 female, mean age 35.8 ± 10.7 years, who underwent MMA performed. Pre-...
