Background: Chronic periodontitis (CP) is a continuous, reversible source of inflammation with potential impact on mortality in patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD). This study investigates the oral health indicators, CP, and its treatment survival rates group HD. Methods: Clinically stable HD were referred for dental examination. All prospectively followed dialysis clinic, all‐cause was recorded. Three groups analyzed: those who received CP treatment, did not, without as control group....
The aim of this study was to evaluate the role acellular dermal matrix graft (ADMG) acting as a membrane, associated with resorbable hydroxyapatite (RHA) in bone regeneration prevent ridge deformities after tooth extraction. Fifteen patients who had at least 2 noncontiguous, uniradicular teeth indicated for extraction were selected. In group I, sockets covered by ADMG alone; and II, alveoli filled RHA before placement ADMG. After 6 months, re-entry surgeries biopsies performed. Although...
Background: The aim of the present study is to evaluate use anorganic bovine bone (ABB) associated with a collagen membrane (CM) for sinus graft by means clinical, histologic, and radiographic parameters in cases availability ≤7 mm. A preliminary evaluation consisted clinical examination, computed tomography (CT), panoramic x‐ray. Methods: Ninety‐two patients requiring bilateral grafts 222 unilateral procedures (total: 406 sinuses) participated this study. total 1,025 implants were placed...
Background: Poor oral health status may have an impact on the of patients with chronic renal failure.Aim: To describe a group Brazilian failure.Material and methods: Retrospective review medical records failure, whom 13 (4.5%)were in pre dialysis stage, 158 (55%) were hemodialysis, 23 (8.4%) peritoneal 92 (32.1%) transplanted.General health, presence dental calculus, halitosis recorded.The number decayed, missed filled teeth was analyzed by means DMF-T (Decayed, Missed Filled Teeth)...
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and periodontitis (PD) are serious public-health concerns. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble steroid hormone that interacts with its nuclear receptor (VDR) to regulate variety of biological processes, such as bone metabolism, immune response modulation transcription several genes involved in CKD PD mechanisms. The aim this work was investigate the association between polymorphisms VDR gene end-stage renal (ESRD) PD.222 subjects without ESRD (in hemodialysis) were...
Abstract The objective is to present a clinical case of dental autotransplantation managed with surgery, orthodontics, endodontics, periodontics, and aesthetic rehabilitation. A 10-year-old boy sought treatment after avulsion the maxillary left central incisor, which was not reimplanted. Based on anamnesis, examination, complementary examinations, agenesis mandibular second premolars except right premolar observed. After multidisciplinary planning, space in incisor region opened receive...
A buccal plate destroyed as a result of longitudinal root fracture was completely restored by the use Frialit-2 implant placed in alveolus fractured maxillary left first bicuspid. An acellular dermal matrix material used membrane barrier to cover implant, and bioactive glass grafting material. After 6 months, defect around filled mineralized tissue.
Background and Objective Interleukin‐6 ( IL ‐6) is a powerful stimulator of osteoclast differentiation bone resorption. Production ‐6 modulated by polymorphisms, higher levels this cytokine are found locally in patients with chronic periodontitis. In study we performed modern approach – Complete physical mapping the IL6 gene to identify polymorphisms associated periodontitis southern Brazilian population sample. Material Methods One‐hundred nine individuals both genders (mean age: 41.5 ± 8.5...
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a complex disorder, which results in several complications involving disturbance of mineral metabolism. Periodontal an infectious that appears to be important cause systemic inflammation CKD patients. characterized by clinical attachment loss (CAL) caused alveolar bone resorption around teeth, may lead tooth loss. Osteoprotegerin (OPG) key regulator osteoclastogenesis. Polymorphisms are the main source genetic variation, and single nucleotide polymorphisms...
Subepithelial connective tissue grafts (SCTGs) are commonly performed for the treatment of gingival recession due to their high predictability. This study evaluated and histologically compared in terms presence epithelial remnants composition types that were present (epithelium, lamina propria, submucosa).
Anatomic characteristics of interproximal areas are dependent on the anatomy, position, and proximal contact adjacent teeth. The objective this study was to investigate influence reestablishment following restorative alveolar interface (RAI) procedure gingival COL formation interdental papilla.Six mongrel dogs received bilateral apically positioned flaps, crown lengthening, RAI maxillary fourth bicuspid first molar. After 2 weeks, in a randomized manner, one side prepared receive metallic...
Aim The presence of a microgap at the implant-abutment interface may permit bacterial contamination and lead to bone resorption, interfering with papillae formation. present study evaluated adjacent implants cement-retained abutments as an option control such deleterious effects. Materials methods Seven minipigs had their bilateral mandibular premolars previously extracted. After 8 weeks, four were installed in each hemi-mandible animal. randomly inserted on one side crestal level other, 1.5...
Objectives: The aim of this study was to radiographically evaluate the filling standardized bone defectsin rat calvaria treated with bioactive glass and porcine submucosa membrane, alone or in combination,when compared defects filled clot. Materials methods: Eighty male Wistar rats, weighing 250to 300 g, were divided into four groups, trial period two eight weeks. Standardized woundswere surgically created measuring 6 mm diameter glass, porcinesubmucosa combination both only After weeks,...
Objetivos: O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar radiograficamente o preenchimento osseo de defeitos criados em tibia ratas ovariectomizadas e nao ovariectomizadas, preenchidos por coagulo ou material substituto osseo. Materiais metodos: Foram utilizadas 30 wistar, sendo que 15 foram ovariectomizadas(grupo OV) receberam ovariectomia (grupo NOV). Decorridos 60 dias da cirurgia ovariectomia,ambos os grupos submetidos a para confeccao osseos nas tibias. A direita preenchida coagulo, esquerda,...
