CARGA IMEDIATA SOBRE IMPLANTES EM ÁREA ESTÉTICA: REVISÃO DE LITERATURA.

Because of the importance of aesthetics today, dental implants have become a good solution for rehabilitation in cases of tooth loss. With the advent of osseointegration, case unit edentulous, partially or totally now be resolved in a period of three to six months, dependent on the jaw or mandibular location. However, the need to promote faster results allowed the proposal for immediate application load on implants were considered. Thus, several studies have shown that a single surgical stage in implantology could be as acceptable and predictable as two, resulting in the possibility of placing a prosthesis on implants that have just been set. In this case, they receive masticatory load after surgical and prosthetic stages, which are conducted at the same moment, without a waiting period for osseointegration process. From this perspective, this paper aims to make a literature review on the performance of immediate loading on implants in the aesthetic area, highlighting its benefits and indications. From the qualitative literature review, based on a review of books, scientific articles published, and specialized magazines, it was concluded that the use of immediate loading is becoming a viable therapeutic option, atraumatic, safe, providing an immediate rehabilitation of function and aesthetics in addition to getting greater acceptance and satisfaction of the patient. However, proper planning is critical, careful execution and adoption of a technique with scientific basis, for the use of this technique is only justified when well indicated and with careful analysis, respecting all clinical determinants and not excluding the conventional technique.Devido à importância da estética nos dias atuais, os implantes dentários tornaram-se uma boa solução para reabilitação em casos de perdas dentárias. Com o advento da osseointegração, casos de edêntulos unitários, parciais ou totais passaram a ser resolvidos em um período de três a seis meses, dependentes da localização maxilar ou mandibular. Mas a necessidade de promover resultados mais rápidos permitiu que a proposta de aplicação imediata de carga sobre implantes fosse considerada. Assim, inúmeros estudos demonstraram que um único estágio cirúrgico em Implantodontia poderia ser tão aceitável e previsível quanto dois, surgindo a possibilidade da colocação de uma prótese sobre implantes que acabaram de ser fixados. Nesse caso, eles recebem carga mastigatória logo após os estágios cirúrgicos e protéticos, que são realizados em um mesmo momento, não havendo um período de espera para o processo de osseointegração. Nessa ótica, o presente trabalho tem o objetivo de fazer uma revisão de literatura sobre a realização de carga imediata sobre implantes em área estética, ressaltando seus benefícios e indicações. A partir da pesquisa bibliográfica qualitativa, baseada na revisão de livros, artigos científicos publicados, e revistas especializadas, concluiu-se que o emprego da carga imediata vem se tornando uma opção terapêutica viável, atraumática, segura, proporcionando uma reabilitação imediata da função e estética, além de obter maior aceitabilidade e satisfação por parte do paciente. Porém, é fundamental o planejamento adequado, execução cuidadosa e adoção de uma técnica com embasamento científico, pois o uso dessa técnica só se justifica quando bem indicada e com análise criteriosa, respeitando todos os determinantes clínicos e sem excluir a técnica convencional

NEOTROPICAL FRESHWATER FISHES: A dataset of occurrence and abundance of freshwater fishes in the Neotropics

The Neotropical region hosts 4225 freshwater fish species, ranking first among the world's most diverse regions for freshwater fishes. Our NEOTROPICAL FRESHWATER FISHES data set is the first to produce a large-scale Neotropical freshwater fish inventory, covering the entire Neotropical region from Mexico and the Caribbean in the north to the southern limits in Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, and Uruguay. We compiled 185,787 distribution records, with unique georeferenced coordinates, for the 4225 species, represented by occurrence and abundance data. The number of species for the most numerous orders are as follows: Characiformes (1289), Siluriformes (1384), Cichliformes (354), Cyprinodontiformes (245), and Gymnotiformes (135). The most recorded species was the characid Astyanax fasciatus (4696 records). We registered 116,802 distribution records for native species, compared to 1802 distribution records for nonnative species. The main aim of the NEOTROPICAL FRESHWATER FISHES data set was to make these occurrence and abundance data accessible for international researchers to develop ecological and macroecological studies, from local to regional scales, with focal fish species, families, or orders. We anticipate that the NEOTROPICAL FRESHWATER FISHES data set will be valuable for studies on a wide range of ecological processes, such as trophic cascades, fishery pressure, the effects of habitat loss and fragmentation, and the impacts of species invasion and climate change.
