To evaluate, in vitro, the effects of ionizing radiation on mechanical and micro-morphological properties enamel dentin permanent teeth. Enamel microhardness (n = 12 hemi-sections) was evaluated at three depths (superficial, middle deep) prior to (control) after every 10 Gy dose up a cumulative 60 by means longitudinal microhardness. Data were analyzed using two-way analysis variance Tukey's test significance level 5%. morphology assessed scanning electron microscopy (SEM) for...
A ovariohisterectomia é o procedimento cirúrgico mais realizado nas clínicas veterinárias de todo Brasil, e sua principal função evitar a superpopulação cães gatos, mas também pode ser feita para amenizar, prevenir ou tratar doenças influenciadas pelos hormônios reprodutivos. E com evolução das tecnologias, surgem novas técnicas cirúrgicas, umas recentes chama-se Natural Orifice Transluminal Surgery (NOTES), uma técnica minimamente invasiva que utiliza orifícios naturais do corpo como acesso...
Introduction Molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) is a qualitative defect of dental enamel that affects one or more permanent first molars, with without involvement the incisor teeth. This condition leads to challenges care and treatment planning. Aim Based on hypothesis children who have MIH possibly present alterations in postural masticatory activities considering absence studies investigating these parameters, study evaluated functionality stomatognathic system mentioned aspects....
To compare the molar bite force, electromyographic activity, chewing efficiency and thickness of masseter temporalis muscles in individuals with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) healthy individuals.Thirty enrolled study were divided into group (with ALS, n=15) control (healthy individuals, n=15). Data regarding force (right left), activity (mandibular rest, right left laterality, protrusion, maximum voluntary contraction), (habitual non-habitual), masticatory muscle (rest contraction)...
Osteoarthrosis is a disorder of synovial joints, resulting from destruction the cartilage and subchondral bone. The present study aimed to investigate molar bite force, thickness efficiency masseter temporalis muscles subjects with osteoarthrosis. A total forty-eight participated in study. They were distributed into two groups: osteoarthrosis (n=24) asymptomatic controls (n=24). Subjects analyzed on basis maximal force (right left side), (mandibular rest dental clenching voluntary...
Abstract Background Osteoporosis can make bone repair difficult. Low‐level laser therapy ( LLLT ) has been shown to be a promising tool for neoformation. This study aimed analyze the effect of on calvaria defects ovariectomized rats using stereology. Methods Fifty‐four Wistar were subjected bilateral ovariectomy, and created in after 150 days. The animals divided into nine groups (n = 6 per group), 24 hours they received 3, or 12 sessions at 0, 20 30 J/cm 2 , 780‐nm low‐intensity GaAlAs...
Osteoarthrosis is a severe, evolutionary, chronic, and limiting disease that influences on quality of life, as it affects synovial joints promoted degradation hyaline articular cartilage. We sought to determine if electromyographic activity the masticatory muscles life are negatively impacted by osteoarthrosis.A sample 72 participants between 40 70 years old diagnosed with osteoarthrosis were selected. Forty-eight met inclusion criteria this study divided into two distinct groups: (n=24)...
Background: Neurodegenerative diseases that affect the cerebellum, especially in elderly individuals, cause impairment of motor coordination and quality life.The presente study evaluated electromyographic activity thickness right left masseter temporal muscles, maximum molar bite force individuals with spinocerebellar ataxia.Material Methods: Twenty-eight were divided into two groups: those (n=14) without ataxia.Data on masticatory muscles obtained from (resting, laterality protrusion),...
The aim of this study was to analyse the stomatognathic system adult women with chronic allergic rhinitis by means molar bite force and electromyographic activity masseter temporalis muscles.A total 26 subjects were screened divided into two distinct groups: group (n = 13) healthy control 13). Subjects assessed maximal (right left) normalized mandibular tasks (rest, right left laterality, protrusion voluntary contraction). Data submitted Student's t test (p< .05).There significant difference...
Intervertebral disc degeneration is a pathological condition associated with the intervertebral and related to functional alterations in human body. This study aimed evaluate maximum molar bite force masseter temporal muscles thickness individuals degeneration. Thirty-two were divided into two groups: those of discs (n=16) without (n=16). The (on right left sides) was measured using dynamometer. Masseter muscle during mandibular task rest dental clenching voluntary contraction analysed...
Dental malocclusions are deviations from normalities due to the inadequate growth and development of dental arch which provides functional changes stomatognathic system. The aim this longitudinal study was evaluate electromyographic activity (EMG) masseter temporalis muscles, strength orofacial tissues occlusal force children with anterior open bite (n = 15) posterior crossbite 20), 7 days after removal orthodontic apparatus. A fixed horizontal palatal crib used in treatment appliances Hyrax...
The objective of the present study was to ascertain masticatory efficiency by evaluating electromyographic activity in masseter and temporalis muscles subjects with sleep bruxism varying severity, as determined BiteStrip. Thirty-four were divided into two groups: a mild group mean (± standard deviation) age 31.3 ± 6.2 years (n = 15) severe 29.8 7.1 19). Full-night polysomnography (PSG) performed eligible subjects. linear envelope integral used determine on basis signal during habitual...
Breast cancer is the most common affecting women in world and provides functional changes human body. Evaluate submitted to unilateral mastectomy, through electromyographic activity (mandibular rest, right left laterality, protrusion, maximum voluntary contraction with without Parafilm, habitual non-habitual mastication) thickness (rest contraction) of temporal muscle (RT), (LT), masseter (RM) (LM), also molar bite force (right left) compare data healthy women. Material Methods: 32 were...
<title>Abstract</title> Objectives This study aimed to assess unilateral molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH) on the stomatognathic system in children, investigating if greater impairment exists affected side terms of postural and masticatory activities occlusal force contacts. Materials Methods Fourteen children with MIH (mean age: 7.92 years) were included this cross-sectional split-mouth observational study. Electromyography (EMG) evaluated masseter temporal muscle activity during...
