Introduction: The labial frenum is a fold of mucous membrane that attaches the lip and cheek to alveolar mucosa, gingiva, underlying periosteum. In some cases, its presence can cause midline diastema, periodontal diseases related food impaction, or retention biofilm, among others. such frenectomy indicated as treatment, which be performed with scalpel (conventional method), an electric scalpel, surgical laser. Objective: To show clinical case at Laser Extension Project in Dentistry, Federal...
This study compared three protocols for developing artificial white spot lesions (WSL) using biofilm models.
The aim of this in vitro study was to assess the influence distinct surface treatments on microhardness and color enamel that will be bleached. Surface are tested, accordingly: G1, no treatment; G2, 2% sodium fluoride; G3, casein phosphopeptide paste; G4, fluoride+Nd:YAG laser. Forty blocks from bovine teeth composed sample were tested Knoop (<mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" id="M1"><mml:mi>n</mml:mi><mml:mo>=</mml:mo><mml:mn fontstyle="italic">10</mml:mn></mml:math>)...
In vitro effect of 1% theobromine addition on the physical and chemical properties conventional glass ionomer (GIC) cement was investigated. Conventional GIC (GIC-C) added to (GIC-THEO) specimens were compared regarding microhardness (n = 10), sorption 5), solubility color change fluoride release in saliva 10) amount biofilm deposition 20). Compared against GIC, adding increased (p < 0.05), while its sorption, solubility, > 0.05) remained unchanged. On other hand, Streptococcus mutans...
Objetivo: Analisar efeitos de diferentes envelhecimentos sobre a rugosidade e cor cimentos ionômero vidro (CIV) encapsulados. Materiais métodos: Foram testados dois [convencional/ Self Cure (SC) resino modificado/Light (LC)] [(baseline, pós-ciclagem térmica pós- -ciclagem + armazenamento por sete meses)]. 52 discos (n = 13) foram confeccionados. A foi avaliada espectrofotômetros (VITA Easyshade Konica Minolta CE3700A), pelo perfilômetro óptico (Proscan 2100, Scantron). Resultados: ANOVA...
Objective: To compare optical, morphological, chemical, and physical aspects of the sound enamel whitespot lesions (WSL) classified as ICDAS 2. Material Methods: Seventeen human molars with one surfacepresenting WSL a surface (2 x 2 mm window) were characterized by Quantitative light-inducedfluorescence (QLF®), Optical coherence tomography (OCT), microhardness, Raman spectroscopy. The ANOVAand Tukey's test used at 5% significance level. Results: QLF comparison between distinct...
A inserção da Estratégia de saúde bucal (ESB) na Saúde Família (ESF) focou no processo reorientação das relações como são realizados os trabalhos. Foi observado a necessidade equipe trabalho se manter em contato com pacientes e abranger demanda dos atendimentos solicitados. Os parâmetros que estruturam o ESB mesmos regem funcionamento ESF, sendo eles universalidade, integralidade, equidade. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi elaborar uma identifique demonstre quais as principais dificuldades...
Objetivo: Relatar um caso clínico utilizando a terapia de fotobiomodulação no tratamento da disfunção temporomandibular proporcionando analgesia e maior abertura bucal. Relato caso: Paciente, gênero feminino, 24 anos portadora temporomandibular, foi atendida para projeto extensão “Laserterapia em Odontologia” Universidade Federal do Maranhão. O diagnóstico feito através uma anamnese criteriosa, exame aplicação questionário. aparelho laser utilizado o baixa potência cujo meio ativo é composto...
Objective: This case report proposes a treatment for dentin hypersensitivity (DH) using photobiomodulation (PBT) with low power diode laser. Methods and Results: Male patient, 28 years old, reporting “dental sensitivity,” diagnosed by anamnesis intraoral examination, non-carious cervical lesions (NCCL) DH on teeth 15 to 25, different pain intensities, measured visual analogue scale (VAS). For treatment, PBT was proposed, 808nm, 100mW, 20s 2J of energy, applied during 3 sessions, one-week...
