RESUMO Este relato apresenta o caso de um paciente adulto com limitações mentais e intelectuais, cuja queixa principal era a estética dental. O tratamento odontológico foi realizado na Faculdade de Odontologia de Piracicaba e aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética (CAAE: 65752322.2.0000.5418). Clinicamente, o paciente apresentava inadequações no arranjo dentário, com comprometimento periodontal, que colocava em risco os elementos dentais. Nos aspectos clínicos intrabucais, a deficiência foi identificada como atresia maxilar. A inclinação vestíbulo-lingual dos dentes anteriores inferiores destacou o apinhamento severo e o cruzamento anterior desses dentes. O tratamento odontológico foi realizado visando à remissão dos problemas periodontais e ortodônticos de forma integrada e com abordagens que permitissem maior interação, participação e adesão do paciente durante o tratamento. Foram realizadas raspagens supra e subgengivais e extração do incisivo lateral superior esquerdo. Após três meses de tratamento periodontal, iniciou-se o tratamento ortodôntico com aparelhos ortodônticos fixos. O objetivo principal foi nivelar e alinhar os dentes em ambas as arcadas para alcançar melhores condições estéticas e funcionais. Devido à pandemia de COVID-19, o tratamento foi interrompido. Isso resultou na regressão dos resultados obtidos, inclusive quanto ao autocuidado. As pessoas com deficiência requerem atendimento odontológico com estratégias específicas para suas necessidades, que devem ser realizadas por uma equipe multidisciplinar. Apesar da limitação de acesso imposta pela pandemia, o paciente restabeleceu sua motivação para reiniciar o tratamento, o que foi facilitado pelo vínculo de confiança estabelecido entre ele e a equipe. intelectuais dental CAAE (CAAE 65752322.2.0000.5418. 65752322200005418 65752322.2.0000.5418 . 65752322 2 0000 5418 65752322.2.0000.5418) Clinicamente dentário periodontal dentais intrabucais maxilar vestíbulolingual vestíbulo lingual interação esquerdo iniciouse iniciou se fixos funcionais COVID19, COVID19 COVID 19, 19 COVID-19 interrompido obtidos autocuidado necessidades multidisciplinar 6575232220000541 65752322.2.0000.541 6575232 000 541 COVID1 1 COVID-1 657523222000054 65752322.2.0000.54 657523 00 54 COVID- 65752322200005 65752322.2.0000.5 65752 0 5 6575232220000 65752322.2.0000. 6575 657523222000 65752322.2.0000 657 65752322200 65752322.2.000 65 6575232220 65752322.2.00 6 657523222 65752322.2.0 65752322.2. 65752322.2 65752322.

ABSTRACT This report presents the case of an adult patient with mental and intellectual limitations, whose main complaint was dental aesthetics. Dental treatment was performed at the Piracicaba Dental School and approved by the Ethics Committee (CAAE: 65752322.2.0000.5418). Clinically, the patient had inadequacies in the dental arrangement, with periodontal involvement that put the dental elements at risk. In intraoral clinical aspects, the deficiency was identified as maxillary atresia. The buccolingual inclination of the mandibular anterior teeth highlighted the severe crowding and anterior crossing of these teeth. Dental treatment was carried out aiming at the remission of periodontal and orthodontic problems in an integrated manner and with approaches that allowed greater interaction, participation, and patient compliance during treatment. Supra and subgingival scrapings and extraction of the upper left lateral incisor were performed. After three months of periodontal treatment, orthodontic treatment was started with fixed orthodontic appliances. The main objective was to level and align the teeth in both arches to achieve better aesthetic and functional conditions. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, treatment has been discontinued. This resulted in the regression of the results obtained, including regarding self-care. People with disabilities require dental care with specific strategies for their needs, which must be carried out by a multidisciplinary team. Despite the access limitation imposed by the pandemic, the patient reestablished his motivation to restart treatment, which was facilitated by the bond of trust established between him and the team. limitations aesthetics CAAE (CAAE 65752322.2.0000.5418. 65752322200005418 65752322.2.0000.5418 . 65752322 2 0000 5418 65752322.2.0000.5418) Clinically arrangement risk aspects atresia interaction participation appliances conditions COVID19 COVID 19 COVID-1 pandemic discontinued obtained selfcare. selfcare self care. self-care needs team 6575232220000541 65752322.2.0000.541 6575232 000 541 COVID1 1 COVID- 657523222000054 65752322.2.0000.54 657523 00 54 65752322200005 65752322.2.0000.5 65752 0 5 6575232220000 65752322.2.0000. 6575 657523222000 65752322.2.0000 657 65752322200 65752322.2.000 65 6575232220 65752322.2.00 6 657523222 65752322.2.0 65752322.2. 65752322.2 65752322.

RESUMO A maior procura por dentes brancos tem impulsionado a comercialização de novos produtos clareadores, especialmente aqueles que possam ser de fácil acesso, que não precisem supervisão direta do dentista, e que tenham um custo acessível para o consumidor. Entre esses novos produtos diversos dentifrícios, denominados como branqueadores, têm sido comercializados. Destes o mais recente é o dentifrício a base de carvão ativado, que entrou no mercado prometendo clarear os dentes, enquanto que se apresenta como um produto saudável e ecológico, porém sem grande respaldo científico. Portanto, esta revisão da literatura teve o objetivo de avaliar a capacidade branqueadora e os efeitos no esmalte após o uso de produtos de higiene oral contendo carvão ativado. Após avaliar diversos artigos in vitro sobre o tema, pode-se concluir que estes produtos não tem um efeito clareador propriamente dito e sim agem como removedores de pigmentos extrínsecos. Porém, grande parte dos produtos contendo carvão ativado poderiam apresentar um efeito abrasivo sobre a superfície do esmalte, pelo que se sugere cautela sobre a indicação destes dentifrícios, especialmente para os pacientes sujeitos a maiores riscos de desgaste dental, como recessão gengival, fluxo salivar reduzido, alto risco de cárie ou erosão dentária. clareadores acesso dentista consumidor dentifrícios branqueadores comercializados ecológico científico Portanto tema podese pode extrínsecos Porém dental gengival reduzido dentária

ABSTRACT The increased demand for white teeth has intensified the commercialization of new bleaching products, particularly those that can be accessed easily, do not require the direct supervision of a dentist, and are affordable. Among these new products, several dentifrices publicized as bleaching products have been developed, most recent of them being the activated charcoal toothpaste, which entered the market promising to whiten teeth. While it is portrayed as a healthy and ecological product, there is a paucity of scientific evidence supporting its alleged benefits. Therefore, this literature review aimed to evaluate activated charcoal containing oral hygiene products on their bleaching ability and effects on enamel. After analyzing several in vitro studies on the subject, it can be concluded that these products do not have a bleaching effect per se, but act by removing the extrinsic pigments from the teeth. However, most of the products containing activated charcoal could have abrasive effects on the surface of the enamel. Therefore, it is suggested caution about the indication of these dentifrices, especially for individuals predisposed to dental wear, such as gingival recession, reduced salivary flow, and high risk of caries or dental erosion. easily dentist affordable developed toothpaste product benefits Therefore enamel subject se However wear recession flow erosion

Abstract Objectives Considering the fact that resin infiltrants lack antibacterial activity, this study assessed the influence of the quaternary ammonium monomer dimethylaminohexadecyl methacrylate (DMAHDM) and amorphous calcium phosphate nanoparticles (NACP) on the physical and antibacterial properties of an experimental resin infiltrant (ERI). Methodology The following groups were established: ERI (75/25 wt.% TEGDMA/BISEMA), ERI + 2.5% DMAHDM (2.5DM), ERI + 5% DMAHDM (5DM), ERI + 2% NACP (NACP), ERI + 2.5% DMAHDM + 2% NACP (2.5DM_NACP), ERI + 5% DMAHDM + 2% NACP (5DM_NACP), and Icon® (IC), a commercial resin infiltrant. Degree of conversion (DC; n=4), sorption and solubility (SO/SOL; n=8), and contact angle (CA; n=10) tests were conducted. Biofilm biomass (BB; n=6) and bacterial metabolism (BM; n=8) were evaluated after Streptococcus mutans (UA159) cultivation for 48 h on material samples. Data were evaluated by one-way ANOVA and Tukey or Games-Howell post hoc tests (α=0.05). Results IC exhibited the highest DC, with no difference from 2.5DM and 5DM. IC showed the lowest CA. IC had the lowest SO, followed by ERI, which had the lowest SOL, with no difference from IC. 5DM_NACP showed the lowest biofilm biomass, similar to 2.5DM and 5DM. Resin infiltrants containing DMAHDM showed reduced bacterial metabolism. Conclusions DMAHDM, with or without NACP, demonstrated significant antibacterial activity, while NACP impaired DC. Both DMAHDM and NACP increased the contact angle, sorption, and solubility of the resin infiltrant, which may affect the material’s clinical performance. activity (DMAHDM (NACP ERI. .

Resumo O objetivo desse estudo foi avaliar o efeito da incorporação de partículas de Bário e Itérbio nas propriedades físicas de infiltrantes resinosos. Os grupos foram divididos de acordo com a adição de Itérbio puro (30 ou 40%) ou Itérbio com Bário (15/15% ou 20/20% respectivamente) no infiltrante comercial Icon e no Infiltrante experimental base. Foram realizados os testes de: radiografia digital (n=5), microradiografia Transversa (n=5), microtomografia (n=3), grau de conversão (n=5), sorção (n=16), solubilidade (n=16), ângulo de contato (n=16), resistência flexural (n=16), modulo de elasticidade (n=16) e Espectroscopia por energia dispersiva (n=10). As análises foram realizadas utilizando o programa R, com nível de significância de 5%, e os testes de microradiografia e microtomografia foram analisados qualitativamente. Nos grupos com 30 ou 40% de Itérbio, a radiopacidade foi maior ou igual ao esmalte dentário. Na microradiografia e microtomografia parece ter maior radiopacidade nos grupos com 40% de itérbio. Dentre os grupos sem adição de partículas, os do infiltrante experimental apresentaram maior grau de conversão do que os do Icon e o grupo controle experimental e com 40% de itérbio apresentaram os melhores resultados. Na maioria dos grupos, a solubilidade foi abaixo dos níveis recomendados pela ISO. A adição de particulas resultou em maior viscosidade. Os grupos com Icon apresentaram maior resistência flexural e modulo de elasticidade do que os grupos com infiltrante experimental e a quantidade de partícula aumentou a resistência e o módulo de elasticidade. A adição de 40% de itérbio melhorou a polimerização, apresentou baixa solubilidade e maior radiopacidade do que o esmalte, porém afetou negativamente a viscosidade, aumentando-a. resinosos (3 40 15/15% 1515 15 (15/15 2020 20 20/20 respectivamente base n=5, n5 n n=5 , 5 (n=5) n=3, n3 n=3 3 (n=3) n=16, n16 n=16 16 (n=16 n=10. n10 n=10 . 10 (n=10) R 5% qualitativamente dentário resultados ISO viscosidade polimerização aumentandoa. aumentandoa aumentando a. aumentando-a ( 4 15/15 151 1 (15/1 202 2 20/2 n= (n=5 (n=3 n1 n=1 (n=1 (n=10 15/1 (15/ 20/ (n= 15/ (15 (n (1

Abstract Radiopaque properties in the infiltrant should be interesting for clinicians to feel more confident to indicate this treatment. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the incorporation of barium and ytterbium particles on the physical properties of resin infiltrants. Groups were divided according to the addition of ytterbium oxide (Y) alone (30 or 40%) or Y with barium (YB) (15/15% or 20/20% respectively) in the Icon commercial infiltrant and in the experimental infiltrant base. Digital radiography (n=5), Microradiography (n=5), Microtomography (n=3), degree of conversion (n=5), water sorption (n=16), solubility (n=16), contact angle (n=16), flexural strength (n=16), elastic modulus (n=16) and Energy dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (n=10) were performed. Analyses were performed using the R program, with a significance level of 5%, and microradiography and Microtomography analyses were evaluated qualitatively. In groups with 30 or 40% of ytterbium, radiopacity was higher or equal to enamel. Microradiography and Microtomography appear to have more radiopacity in groups with 40% (Y). Among the groups with no particle addition, those of the experimental infiltrant presented a higher degree of conversion than those of Icon®. In most groups, there was solubility below the ISO-recommended levels. The addition of particles resulted in higher viscosity. Groups with Icon had higher flexural strength and elastic modulus than groups with experimental infiltrant. The addition of 40% (Y) improved polymerization, had low solubility, and had greater radiopacity than enamel, however negatively affected the viscosity increasing then. Experimental groups with the base showed a higher water sorption than Icon groups. treatment Thus infiltrants (Y (3 40 YB (YB 15/15% 1515 15 (15/15 2020 20 20/20 respectively n=5, n5 n n=5 , 5 (n=5) n=3, n3 n=3 3 (n=3) n=16, n16 n=16 16 (n=16 Xray X ray n=10 n10 10 (n=10 program 5% qualitatively enamel Y. .

Resumo Os polímeros Natrosol e Aristoflex® AVC são amplamente utilizados na indústria cosmética e foram recentemente aplicados como uma opção de espessante na composição de géis de clareamento dental, com o objetivo de reduzir os efeitos adversos sobre os componentes minerais do esmalte. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a variação de cor (ΔE*ab, ΔE00, ∆WID), rugosidade da superfície (Ra), e quantificação do conteúdo mineral (Raman Spectroscopy) do esmalte dentário após clareamento dental com gel experimental baseado em 10% de peróxido de carbamida (CP), contendo Carbopol, Natrosol e Aristoflex® AVC. Sessenta dentes bovinos foram divididos aleatoriamente em 6 grupos (n=10): Controle Negativo (CN) - sem tratamento; Controle Positivo (CP) - Brancura Perfeita 10% - FGM; CP com Carbopol (CPc); CP com Natrosol (CPn); CP com Aristoflex® AVC (CPa); NCP - sem espessante. Os dados foram analisados e modelos lineares generalizados (∆WID -T0 x T1) foram usados para medições repetidas no tempo para Ra e com um fator de estudo para ΔE*ab e ΔE00. Para a avaliação do conteúdo mineral, os dados foram submetidos a testes unidirecionais de ANOVA e Tukey. Para a análise da superfície topográfica do esmalte, o Microscópio Eletrônico de Varredura (SEM) foi realizado. Um nível de significância de 5% foi considerado. ΔE*ab e ΔE00 foram significativamente maiores para os grupos CPc, CPn, CPa e NCP. (∆WID) mostrou uma média significativamente menor do que os outros grupos para NC em T1. Após o clareamento (aplicação diária de 4 horas por 14 dias), Ra foi maior nos grupos CPc, CPn e PC. Para CPa, Ra não foi alterado. Nenhuma diferença significativa foi encontrada na quantificação do conteúdo mineral. O CPa preservou a suavidade da superfície de forma mais eficaz. Aristoflex® AVC é uma opção viável para aplicação como espessante em géis de clareamento dental, apresentando desempenho satisfatório e mantendo a eficácia clareadora do gel, com a vantagem de preservar a rugosidade da superfície do esmalte dentário sem perda significativa de conteúdo mineral.

Abstract Natrosol and Aristoflex® AVC polymers are widely applied in the cosmetic industry and have recently been applied as a thickener option in the composition of dental bleaching gels, with the purpose to reduce the adverse effects on enamel mineral components. The aim of this study was to evaluate the color variation (ΔE* ab, ΔE00, ∆WID), surface roughness (Ra), and mineral content quantification (Raman Spectroscopy) of dental enamel after bleaching treatment with experimental gel-based on 10% carbamide peroxide (CP), containing Carbopol, Natrosol, and Aristoflex® AVC. Sixty bovine teeth were randomly divided into 6 groups (n=10): Negative Control (NC) - no treatment; Positive Control (PC) - Whiteness Perfect 10% - FGM; CP with Carbopol (CPc); CP with Natrosol (CPn); CP with Aristoflex® AVC (CPa); NCP - no thickener. Data were analyzed, and generalized linear models (∆WID -T0 x T1) were used for repeated measurements in time for Ra and with a study factor for ΔE* ab and ΔE00. For the evaluation of the mineral content, data were submitted to one-way ANOVA and Tukey tests. For enamel topographic surface analysis the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) was performed. A significance level of 5% was considered. ΔE* ab and ΔE00 were significantly higher for CPc, CPn, CPa, and NCP groups. (∆WID) showed a significantly lower mean than the other groups for NC in T1. After bleaching (4-hour daily application for 14 days), Ra was higher in the CPc, CPn, and PC groups. For CPa, Ra was not altered. No significant difference was found in the quantification of mineral content. CPa preserved the surface smoothness more effectively. Aristoflex® AVC is a viable option for application as a thickener in dental bleaching gels, presenting satisfactory performance, and maintaining the whitening efficacy of the gel, with the advantage of preserving the surface roughness of tooth enamel without significant loss of mineral content.

Abstract Objective To characterize activated charcoal and 2% hydrogen peroxide-based toothpastes and investigate their effects on roughness, color change, and gloss of bulk-fill composite resin. Methodology Composite resin specimens (Aura Bulk Fill, SDI) were subjected to 5,000 brushing cycles with regular toothpaste (Colgate Total 12, [RT]), activated charcoal toothpaste (Bianco Dental Carbon, [AC]), or hydrogen peroxide-containing toothpaste (Colgate Luminous White Advanced, [HP]), with or without coffee exposure. The pH, particle characterization by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and weight% of solid particles in the toothpaste were assessed. Roughness (Ra) was evaluated using a surface profile-measuring device, color change (∆Eab/∆E00) by reflectance spectrophotometer, and gloss unit (GU) by glossmeter. Kruskal–Wallis, Dunn, Friedman, and Nemenyi tests were used, and the correlation coefficient test was performed between Ra and GU (α=0.05). Results RT presented a higher Ra after brushing and did not change after staining with coffee; moreover, the ∆Eab/∆E00 values were higher for RT than HP. Regarding gloss, AC and HP obtained higher values compared to RT. A significant negative correlation between gloss and Ra was found for RT exposed to coffee. All toothpastes had a neutral pH; however, RT had the largest percentage of solids by weight. SEM images showed particles of many sizes: irregular shape (RT), more regular particles (AC), and spherical clusters (HP). Although surface roughness, color change, and gloss may compromise the longevity of restorations, the whitening toothpastes tested did not promote more morphology changes than regular toothpastes. 2 peroxidebased peroxide based roughness bulkfill bulk fill Aura Fill SDI 5000 5 000 5,00 Colgate 12 RT, , [RT]) Bianco Carbon AC, [AC]) peroxidecontaining containing Advanced HP, [HP]) exposure pH SEM, (SEM) weight assessed (Ra profilemeasuring profile measuring device EabE00 EabE Eab E00 E (∆Eab/∆E00 spectrophotometer (GU glossmeter KruskalWallis Kruskal Wallis Kruskal–Wallis Dunn Friedman used α=0.05. α005 α α=0.05 . 0 05 (α=0.05) moreover ∆Eab/∆E0 however sizes (RT) (AC) (HP) restorations 500 00 5,0 1 [RT] [AC] [HP] (SEM EabE0 E0 (∆Eab/∆E0 α00 α=0.0 (α=0.05 ∆Eab/∆E (RT (AC (HP 50 5, [RT [AC [HP (∆Eab/∆E α0 α=0.

RESUMO A tecnologia CAD/CAM surgiu da necessidade de desenvolvimento de materiais com melhores propriedades mecânicas e ópticas que pudessem ser utilizados para confecção de restaurações monolíticas. Diversos materiais têm sido utilizados para fresagem de restaurações indiretas em blocos pré-fabricados. Dentre eles, o silicato de lítio reforçado com zircônia. Devido a sua recente introdução no mercado, este relato de caso objetivou apresentar um protocolo clínico detalhado para a execução de uma onlay cerâmica desse material utilizando a tecnologia CAD/CAM. Paciente, 57 anos, sexo feminino, procurou atendimento com extensa restauração em resina composta envolvendo as faces (MODV) do dente 15 mantida por quase dois anos. Contudo, em virtude do bruxismo, do apertamento dental constante, da extensão da restauração direta e da necessidade de melhora na estética, foi proposto a substituição por uma restauração indireta em cerâmica do tipo onlay. Foi realizada a profilaxia e escolha da cor do substrato dental da paciente. Em seguida o preparo dental foi confeccionado e polido. Posteriormente foi feita a moldagem com silicone de adição e a confecção do provisório. Com a obtenção do modelo, este foi escaneado e fresada a onlay cerâmica pela tecnologia CAD/CAM, que posteriormente foi maquiada e cimentada sobre o preparo. Após 2 anos, a restauração permaneceu estável, sem evidência de incompatibilidade de cor, descoloração marginal, fenda marginal, cárie ou fratura, comprovando a eficácia do tratamento neste intervalo de tempo. A correta indicação do material cerâmico aliada ao uso da tecnologia CAD-CAM facilitou o processo restaurador devolvendo função e a estética desejada pela paciente.

ABSTRACT The CAD/CAM technology arose from the need to develop materials with better mechanical and optical properties that could be used for making monolithic restorations. Several materials have been used for milling indirect restorations in prefabricated blocks. Among them, lithium silicate reinforced with zirconia. Due to its recent introduction in the market, this case report aimed to present a detailed clinical protocol for the execution of a ceramic onlay of this material using CAD/CAM technology. A 57-year-old female patient sought care with extensive restoration in composite resin (BOMD) of tooth 15 maintained for almost two years. However, due to bruxism, constant dental tightening, the extension of the direct restoration and the need for improved esthetics, it was proposed to replace it with an indirect ceramic onlay restoration. Prophylaxis and choice of the color of the patient’s dental substrate were performed. Afterwards, the dental preparation was made and polished. Subsequently, the molding was made with addition silicone and the provisional restoration confectioned. Once the stone model was obtained, it was scanned and the ceramic onlay restoration was milled using CAD/CAM technology. Finally, the restoration was stained and cemented over the preparation. After 2 years, the restoration remained stable, with no evidence of color mismatch, marginal discoloration, marginal cleft, caries or fracture, proving the effectiveness of the treatment in this time interval. The correct indication of the ceramic material combined with the use of CAD/CAM technology facilitated the restorative process, restoring function and the esthetics desired by the patient.

Abstract To evaluate the feasibility of using a milled polyetheretherketone (PEEK) post and core in endodontically treated teeth with or without a ferrule. Sixty bovine tooth roots were endodontically treated followed by cementation of intraradicular retainers (IR), according to each experimental group: a) non-ferrule glass fiber post (f0FP); b) 2-mm-ferrule glass fiber post (f2FP); c) non-ferrule resized glass fiber post (f0PR); d) 2-mm-ferrule resized glass fiber post (f2PR); e) non-ferrule PEEK post and core (f0PPC); and f) 2-mm-ferrule PEEK post and core (f2PPC). Metal crowns were made and cemented. A periodontal ligament was simulated using polyether. A force was applied to the palatine portion of each sample at 45°, until fracture. Fracture resistance data were submitted to two-way ANOVA and Tukey’s test (α = 0.05). Three-dimensional digital models were developed to calculate the tensions formed in the root using finite element analysis. Models of glass fiber posts and PEEK posts and cores were evaluated with or without a ferrule. The results were analyzed by the Mohr-Coulomb criterion. The type of IR was not influenced by fracture strength (p = 0.243). There were significant statistical differences among the remaining factors. Ferrule groups had greater fracture resistance, and the failure mode of teeth with a ferrule was more catastrophic than the non-ferrule group. A ferrule increases fracture resistance and influences failure mode; the PEEK post and core did not modify the biomechanics of endodontically treated teeth, and resembled the glass fiber post results. The crack initiation point differed between the ferrule and non-ferrule groups.

Aim Resin modified glass ionomer (RMGI) is class of material that can be used as sealant for preventing and arresting the progression of caries in pits and fissures. As these are hybrid materials, their properties can be affected by factors related to the polymerization process. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the influence of different generations of LED curing units (Elipar DeepCure-L and VALO Grand) on Knoop microhardness values (KHN) of RMGI sealants (Clinpro XT and Vitremer). Methods Forty cylindrical specimens (6mm ø x 1 mm high) were prepared according to the manufacturer’s instructions and divided into four groups (n=10) according to the type of RMGI and LED used. The KHN of the top surface of each sample was calculated 7 days after light-curing. Data were submitted to two-way ANOVA (α = 0.05). Results Vitremer had higher KHN values than Clinpro XT after using both LEDs (p<0.0001), but especially when light-cured with the use of VALO Grand (p<0.0001). Whereas the KHN value of Clinpro was not influenced by the LED device (p>0.05). Conclusions Top surface microhardness values of RGMI sealants were affected by both material composition and generations of LED curing units used. Third generation LED curing units seemed to be more efficient for the polymerization of RMGI-based sealants.

RESUMO O clareamento dental é uma das técnicas estéticas mais conservadoras no âmbito odontológico. Técnicas de clareamento caseira ou de consultório, ou a combinação de ambas, podem ser realizadas para alcançar o prognóstico desejado. Esta combinação das técnicas pode ser realizada por meio de diferentes abordagens, como apresentado neste relato de casos. Um paciente do gênero masculino, 24 anos de idade, cujos incisivo central superior e caninos apresentaram cor A2 e A3, respectivamente, foi inicialmente submetido à técnica de clareamento de consultório de duração por sessão de 40 mim com gel de peróxido de hidrogênio (PH) 40%, em duas sessões. Posteriormente, a técnica de clareamento caseira foi realizada durante duas semanas com gel de peróxido de carbamida (PC) a uma concentração de 10%.A cor final dos incisivos centrais superiores foi alterada para 1M1, enquanto a dos caninos para B1. Por outro lado, uma paciente do gênero feminino, 30 anos de idade, foi inicialmente submetida ao clareamento caseiro (durante a noite, por 4 semanas- PC 10%), e subsequentemente, com aplicação pontual de agente clareador (PH 35%) em consultório, em sessão de 45 min. A cor do incisivo central superior da paciente, mudou de A1 para 0,5M1 e do canino superior de A3 para B1. As escalas de cor VITA Classic (A1-D4), e VITA Bleachedguided 3D-MASTER foram utilizadas nesta série de casos para determinar a coloração dos dentes durante os tratamentos. Em ambos os tratamentos, os pacientes não reportaram sensibilidade dental significante, e suas expectativas finais foram atendidas.

ABSTRACT Tooth bleaching is one of the most conservative aesthetic techniques. At-home and in-office bleaching may be performed, as well as the combination of both techniques. As this combination may be done in different manners, distinct orders of combinations were proposed in this report. A 24 years-old man, whose upper central incisor and canine shades were A2 and A3 respectively, was initially treated by chair-side with 40-min application of 40% hydrogen peroxide (HP) for two sessions. Afterwards, an two-week overnight at-home bleaching was performed with 10% carbamide peroxide (CP). The shade of upper central incisors changed to 1M1 and canine was B1. Conversely, a 30 years-old woman was firstly conducted with at-home bleaching (overnight 4-weeks 10% CP) and, subsequently, with a single appointment of in-office bleaching for 45 minutes (35% HP). The shade of her upper central incisor changed from A1 to 0.5M1 and the upper canine from A3 to B1. The VITA classical (A1-D4) shade guide and VITA Bleached guide 3D-MASTER were used to determine the tooth color during the treatments. In both bleaching treatments, patients reported no significant tooth sensitivity and the final outcomes met their expectation.

Abstract: This in vitro study aimed to evaluate surface microhardness, roughness, color, gloss and topography of low-cost Brazilian resin composites, compared with an international one. All 120 samples (8mm ø x 2mm height) were prepared and divided into 5 groups: Ultrafill (Biodinâmica), Llis (FGM), Fill Magic (Coltene), Applic (Makira), and Filtek Z250XT (3M Oral Care). Surface microhardness (KHN) (n=10) was analyzed at two time periods: before and after simulated tooth brushing (STB). Other standardized samples of each group (n=10) were analyzed for surface roughness (Ra), color (ΔL, Δa, Δb, ΔE, ΔE00) and gloss unit (GU) at the same two periods. The topography of non-brushed and brushed samples of each group (n=4) was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy. Data were analyzed statistically by two-way repeated measures ANOVA with Bonferroni post-hoc test (KHN, Ra, GU), and one-way ANOVA with Tukey post-hoc test (ΔL, Δa, Δb, ΔE, ΔE00) (α=0.05). Topographic images were submitted to descriptive analysis. The low-cost Brazilian resin composites investigated were compared with the international one and revealed: lower KHN, regardless of before or after STB; statistically similar Ra before STB, except Ultrafill, which presented higher values; lower Ra after STB, except Ultrafill, which presented statistically similar values; statistically similar color change in ΔL, Δa, Δb parameters; statistically similar color change in ΔE, ΔE00 parameters, except Fill Magic, which presented lower values; lower gloss before STB; lower gloss after STB, except Ultrafill, which presented statistically similar values. In a situation of scarce resources, low-cost Brazilian composites might be an acceptable cost-effective restorative alternative.

Abstract Objective To clinically assess the effect of desensitizing gels and dentifrices on the reduction in pain sensitivity and color variation during tooth bleaching. Methodology A total of 108 volunteers were randomly separated into the following groups of n=12: GT/S-glycerine and thickener/sucralose; NF/S-potassium nitrate and sodium fluoride/sucralose; NA/S-potassium nitrate and arginine/sucralose; GT/AC-glycerine and thickener/arginine and calcium carbonate; NF/AC-potassium nitrate and sodium fluoride/arginine and calcium carbonate; NA/AC-potassium nitrate and arginine/arginine and calcium carbonate; GT/PN-glycerine and thickener/potassium nitrate; NF/PN-potassium nitrate and sodium fluoride/potassium nitrate; and NA/PN-potassium nitrate and arginine/potassium nitrate. Sensitivity was assessed with the numerical analogue scale, and color variation (ΔE) was measured with a spectrophotometer. The sensitivity values obtained were subjected to a multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) and color variation values were subjected to a randomized analysis of variance (p<0.05). Results The NF/AC, NA/AC, NF/PN, and NA/PN groups presented lower sensitivity values and reduced sensitivity compared to those of the other groups throughout the clinical sessions. None of the groups showed sensitivity at the 24-week assessment. Statistically, no significant difference were observed in the color values among the groups four weeks after the beginning of bleaching (p=0.074). Additionally, the color assessment of all groups was statistically similar four weeks (p=0.084) and 24 weeks (p=0.118) after the beginning. Conclusion Our results indicate that adding NF/S, NA/S, NF/AC, and NA/AC desensitizers to tooth bleaching protocols reduces pain sensitivity without affecting its effectiveness.

Abstract: This in vitro study aimed to evaluate the effect of different toothpastes on dental enamel subjected to an erosive cycle with and without exposure to cigarette smoke. Bovine enamel specimens were randomly allocated into 12 groups (n = 12). For the in vitro simulation of smoking, half the groups underwent an exposure cycle of 20 cigarettes per day for 5 days. Subsequently, all groups were subjected to a 5-day erosion cycle intercalating demineralization (1 min; 1% citric acid; pH = 3.5) and treatment with toothpaste slurries (2 min) of NaF, SnF2, F/Sn/Chitosan, F/CaSiO3/Na3PO4, and F/bioactive glass. The control group was immersed in distilled water. Surface microhardness (SMH) was measured initially, after exposure to smoke, and after the erosive cycle, and %SMH was calculated. At the end of the experimental cycle, surface roughness, profilometry, and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were performed. SMH increased after exposure to cigarette smoke (p < 0.05). After the erosive cycle, there were no differences between the presence and absence of cigarette smoke exposure in SMH and roughness (p > 0.05). Besides increasing enamel SMH, cigarette smoke did not prevent enamel loss after the erosion cycle (p < 0.05). In profilometry, roughness and surface loss had the lowest values in the groups treated with SnF2 and F/Sn/Chitosan (p < 0.05). AFM showed lower mineral loss with F/CaSiO3/Na3PO4 and F/Sn/Chitosan. For all groups, except F/CaSiO3/Na3PO4, cigarette smoke resulted in higher enamel wear. F/Sn/Chitosan showed the best results against erosion.

Abstract Resinous infiltrants are indicated in the treatment of incipient carious lesions, and further development of these materials may contribute to greater control of these lesions. The aim of this study was to analyze the physical and antibacterial properties of experimental infiltrants containing iodonium salt and chitosan. Nine experimental infiltrants were formulated by varying the concentration of the diphenyliodonium salt (DPI) at 0, 0.5 and 1 mol%; and chitosan at 0, 0.12 and 0.25 g%. The infiltrants contained the monomeric base of triethylene glycol dimethacrylate and bisphenol-A dimethacrylate ethoxylate in a 75 and 25% proportion by weight, respectively; 0.5 mol% camphorquinone and 1 mol% ethyl 4-dimethylaminobenzoate. The degree of conversion was evaluated using Fourier transformer infrared spectroscopy, and the flexural strength and elastic modulus using the three-point bending test. Sorption and solubility in water, and antibacterial analysis (minimum inhibitory concentration and minimum bactericidal concentration) were also analyzed. Data was analyzed statistically by two-way ANOVA and Tukey’s test (p<0.05), with the exception of the antibacterial test, which was evaluated by visual inspection. In general, the infiltrant group containing 0.5% DPI and 0.12% chitosan showed high values of degree of conversion, higher values of elastic modulus and flexural strength, and lower sorption values in relation to the other groups. Antibacterial activity was observed in all the groups with DPI, regardless of the concentration of chitosan. The addition of DPI and chitosan to experimental infiltrants represents a valid option for producing infiltrants with desirable physical and antibacterial characteristics.

Abstract This study evaluated the effect of adding the hydrophobic monomer 1,12 dodecanediol dimethacrylate (DDDMA) to experimental sealants with and without thermocycling on degree of conversion (DC), water sorption (WS), water solubility (WSB), color stability (ΔE), and micro-shear bond strength (μSBS). Five experimental and one commercially available sealant (Bisco - BIS) were tested. The experimental sealants were formulated by mixing different percentages of DDDMA monomers and urethane dimethacrylate (UDMA). The photoinitiator system was composed by camphorquinone (CQ) and tertiary amine 4-ethyl benzoate dimetilamiono (EDBA). Ethanol was used as a solvent. The experimental groups were named sequentially according to the monomeric content (DDDMA/UDMA): S40/40 (40/40), S50/30 (50/30), S60/20 (60/20), S70/10 (70/10) and S80/0 (80/0). Data were analyzed separately by one-way ANOVA, followed by Tukey’s test (p<0.05). The values of DC ranged from 94.59% (S40/40) to 54.02% (S80/10). BIS showed the highest WS value (p<0.05) and S40/40, S50/30, S60/20 and S80/0 showed the lowest WS values of all tested sealants. WSB values ranged from 7.88 µg/mm3 (BIS) to 13.27 µg/mm3 (S70/10). The highest ΔE value was 11.05±2.88 for BIS and the highest μSBS value was found for S60/20. No significant difference was observed in bond strength between sealants and bovine enamel after thermocycling. Adding DDDMA to the composition of surface sealants can improve its performance, once the monomer increased the degree of conversion and the color stability.
