Background/Objectives: Evaluation of artifact expression in CBCT images caused by different intracanal medications (IMs) considering variations scanning and reconstruction protocols. Reconstruction protocols refer to the specific parameters image processing techniques applied during acquisition, including voxel size, slice thickness, reduction settings. MicroCT was used as reference standard. Methods: Root canal preparation (45./05) upper canines performed, teeth were divided into four...
The aim of this study is to evaluate if single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in WNT6 and WNT10A are associated with the risk dental pulp calcification orthodontic patients. This cross-sectional followed “Strengthening Reporting Genetic Association Studies” (STREGA) guidelines. Panoramic radiographs (pre- post-orthodontic treatment) genomic DNA from 132 patients were studied. Dental (pulp stones and/or space narrowing) was recorded upper lower first molars. SNPs ( rs7349332 , rs3806557...
Childhood-related obesity and overweight are increasing concerns for the health well-being of children.

This cross-sectional was conducted with 269 children both genders enrolled four public schools city Alfenas. The were...
A terapia fotodinâmica antimicrobiana (aPDT) tem se apresentado como uma complementar de grande eficiência no contexto odontológico. Em diferentes especialidades odontológicas mostrado útil fator redução carga microbiana. Recentemente foi sugerida a associação entre essa e utilização nanopartículas nanotecnologia em geral. Assim, revisão sistemática buscou avaliar qual o desfecho geral dessa Foi realizada busca oito bases dados virtuais, foram estabelecidos critérios elegibilidade conforme...
The aim was to evaluate the chemical, morphological aspects and microhardness of root dentin after treatment with Triton™ solution. Twenty blocks were distributed in two groups (n = 10): Control (C) (2.5% NaOCl+17% EDTA+2.5% NaOCl) solution (T). Morphological analysis performed before treatments confocal laser microscopy. Chemical composition analysed using Raman spectroscopy Knoop microhardness. Results submitted Student's t-test Mann-Whitney test (p < 0.05). C group had greater tubule...
Objective: This study sought to assess the reduction in offer of dental care by public service, during COVID-19 pandemic, municipality Alfenas/MG. Method: Consultation data DATASUS according a historical series (2015 2019) and pandemic period (2020 June 2021), which were tabulated integrated. Descriptive statistics obtained application Shapiro-Wilk Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney statistical tests with 5% significance (p<0.05) performed. Results: Through two comparisons (historical period; only...
Abstract Maxillary defects caused by surgical resection generate abnormal communication between the nasal and oral cavities, hindering proper eating phonetics, causing aesthetic damage. Prosthetic intervention is necessary to rehabilitate these patients, in order block allow correct speech swallowing functions. This article reports manufacture of an immediate palatal obturator prosthesis after hemimaxillectomy due removal intraoral squamous cell carcinoma, which guaranteed better conditions...
