Abstract Background/Aim The aim of this study was to evaluate the compressive and tensile stresses on dentin enamel in five different situations: no mouthguard mouthguards from 1 mm thickness up 4 thickness, using finite element analysis. Materials methods A three‐dimensional geometry an upper right central incisor obtained a computed tomography transformed into mesh separating dentin. created covering buccal surface thicknesses, rubber ball with velocity 5 m s −1 made as impact object....
Accurate iris reproduction in the fabrication of ocular prosthesis order to match remaining eye is a key factor mask loss and achieve an esthetic outcome for anophthalmic patients. This study evaluated stability acrylic paints used replicating color prostheses by analysis two factors: temperature resin polymerization cycle during incidence sun light, which main photodegrading agent undermining longevity prostheses. An accelerated aging assay was both analyses. Specimens simulating prosthetic...
Patients using obturator prostheses often present denture-induced stomatitis. In order to detect the presence of oral Candida albicans in patients with oronasal communications and evaluate effectiveness a topical antifungal treatment, cytological smears obtained from buccal palatal mucosa 10 adult patients, nasal acrylic surface their were examined. A therapeutic protocol comprising use nystatin (Mycostatin) prosthesis disinfection sodium hypochlorite was prescribed for all patients. Seven...
Sports Dentistry (SD) acts in the prevention, maintenance and treatment of oral facial injuries, as well collection dissemination information on dental trauma, beyond stimulus to research. Establishes a duty for dentist detect problems related athlete's stomatognathic system. This essay is based provided data from literature SD, including definition, practice areas research fields. To discuss data, six were categorized: shares sports dentistry; health athlete; sports-related implications;...
Abstract – There has been a significant increase in the number of facial fractures stemming from sport activities recent years, with nasal bone one most affected structures. Researchers recommend use nose protector, but there is no standardization regarding material employed. Clinical experience demonstrated that combination flexible and rigid layer ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) offers both comfort safety to practitioners sports. The aim present study was investigation into stresses generated...
The dentist can offer athletes improvement in their physical performance through the maintenance of oral health, preventing and treating any all changes stomatognathic system, such as dental malocclusions, that compromise athletes' performance. objective this study is to research presence malocclusions category between 13 20 years age, from São Paulo Football Club. 84 participated study, dealing with following topics: molar relation (Angle's classification); overbite; underbite;...
In the present investigation, an experimental dental arch model fabricated in epoxy was assayed Kratos universal testing machine to study mechanical behavior of ethylene and vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) form mouthguard for sports flat plate. The following variables were considered: thickness (3 4-mm plates), temperature (room mouth temperature) presence/absence artificial saliva. Mechanical properties EVA tested under compressive strength: apparent absorbed energy (J.mm-1), maximum tension...
This study investigated the microbial colonization of maxillofacial prostheses and support tissues using Checkerboard DNA–DNA hybridization method, efficacy 0.12% chlorhexidine gluconate, 10% Ricinus communis solutions, or brushing, on colony forming unit (CFU) reduction in monospecies biofilms (Candida glabrata, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans, Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecalis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa) formed two silicones (MDX 4-4210 Bio-Skin). Biofilm was harvested from...
The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence caries in children with cleft lip and∕or palate aged 6-36 months life. This conducted at University São Paulo School Dentistry, Brazil. A total 143 were selected (73 male, 70 female), all whom had least two erupted teeth. distributed as follows: 88 and palate, 35 20 lip. Dental disease diagnosed according criteria set by World Health Organization. It observed that 18.9% caries. No correlation between gender or type observed. Mean dmf-t 0.47....
The purpose of this research was to evaluate the maximum stress around osseointegrated implants and alveolar ridge, in a mandible with left partial resection through photoelastic mandibular model. first group consisted two implants: traditional model (T), placed position both canines; fulcrum (F), canine CL right lateral incisor LiR. Both models linked bar clips. second three implants, canines (CR CL) (LiR), which composed four groups: (1) 3 "O" rings, (2) 2 ERAs, clips, (3) ERAs without...
Current study analyzes the characteristics and epidemiology of oral nasal fractures knowledge degree regarding use a mouthguard by an amateur university handball team inBrazil. A cross-sectional comprised 138 students who practiced sport. They were interviewed on dental need mouthguards in games such as handball. Data processed descriptive analysis. Results showed that 19.6% had suffered some type injury during practice sports, namely 40 fractured teeth; 12% bones; 57% underwent head neck...
Abstract Over the last decades, several articles have corroborated need of using mouthguards in sports activities, manufactured with ethylene vinyl acetate ( EVA ) as their main material. There are different techniques used by dentists worldwide to prevent injuries. A technique has been developed help athletes, especially partially edentulous patients, who were not getting proper protection. The mouthguard consists making fillings improve adjustment and esthetics athletes. It is authors′...
