O USO DA CIRURGIA GUIADA NA REABILITAÇÃO UNITÁRIA EM REGIÃO ESTÉTICA

A reabilitação oral por meio dos implantes osseointegrados segundo Branemark foi tradicionalmente proposto com reabilitações múltiplas e implantes ferulizados. Após a criação de pilares unitários houve grande necessidade estética, valorizando novas formas e dimensões para os pilares protéticos e sistemas livres de metal. Este trabalho tem como objetivo o relato de caso clínico em área estética com implante tipo Cone Morse e coroa livre de metal. Paciente M. A. C., 47 anos, compareceu à clínica do Instituto latino Americano de Pesquisa e Ensino Odontológico relatando mobilidade do elemento 11, o qual foi extraído e aguardado o período de 5 meses para instalação de implante tipo Cone Morse e cicatrizador. Após osseointegração, foi instalado munhão com perfil de emergência segundo anatomia dos tecidos periimplantares e coroa provisória durante 45 dias para maturação dos tecidos. A reabilitação final foi realizada em coroa cerâmica livre de metal (In Ceran)

Taxa de chumbo em amostra de voluntários "não expostos" habitantes da Grande São Paulo - Brasil

Através de um espectrofotômetro de absorção atômica foram pesquisados os níveis de chumbo no sangue de 315 voluntários de ambos os sexos (167 do sexo masculino e 148 do feminino) que não revelaram exposição ocupacional a esse metal. Foi encontrado um valor médio de 17,2 µg/100 ml para o sexo masculino e 14,2 µg/100 ml para o sexo feminino. Sugere-se a execução de novos estudos que envolvam populações definidas e amostragem probabilística.The level of lead in the blood of 315 volunteers (167 male and 148 female) who had not been exposed professionally to the metal, was measured by the atomic absortion spectrophotometer method. The average value was 17.2 µg/100 ml in the males and 14.2 µg/100 ml in the females. It is suggested that new studies should be carried out, using a definite population and a probabilistic sampling

The inventory of geological heritage of the state of São Paulo, Brazil: Methodological basis, results and perspectives

An inventory of geological sites based on solid and clear criteria is a first step for any geoconservation strategy. This paper describes the method used in the geoheritage inventory of the State of São Paulo, Brazil, and presents its main results. This inventory developed by the geoscientific community aimed to identify geosites with scientific value in the whole state, using a systematic approach. All 142 geosites representative of 11 geological frameworks were characterised and quantitatively evaluated according to their scientific value and risk of degradation, in order to establish priorities for their future management. An online database of the inventory is under construction, which will be available to be easily consulted and updated by the geoscientific community. All data were made available to the State Geological Institute as the backbone for the implementation of a future state geoconservation strategy.The authors acknowledge the Science Without Borders Programme, Process 075/2012, which supported this study and the São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP), Process 2011/17261-6.

Mechanical evaluation of the prosthetic screw stability from different implant/abutment retention systems

Foi analisada a variação da pré-carga de parafusos durante os cinco primeiros minutos depois de cada uma de cinco seqüências aperto e desaperto de parafusos de implantes dentários com diferentes sistemas de retenção pilar/implante. Extensômetros foram colados no terço cervical de implantes com interface de hexágono externo, hexágono interno e cone Morse. Um procedimento controlado de aperto e desaperto dos parafusos permitiu o arquivo dos valores de torque reverso, em relação ao aperto, e o campo de tensões gerado sobre o terço cervical dos implantes resultante da pré-carga do parafuso para cada uma das seqüências. Foram estudadas 30 amostras de implantes/pilares, dividas em oito grupos: implantes de hexágono externo com intermediário Munhão Universal e parafusos de titânio (Neodent, Curitiba, Brasil) apertados a 32 N.cm (EH.Ti.32); hexágono externo, Munhão Universal, parafuso de titânio recoberto por DLC, 32 N.cm (EH.dlc.32); hexágono interno, Munhão Universal, parafuso de titânio, 20 N.cm (IH.Ti.20); cone Morse, Munhão Universal peça única, 20 N.cm (MT.OP.20); cone Morse, Munhão Universal peça única, 32 N.cm (MT.OP.32); Cone Morse, Munhão Universal parafuso passante, 10 N.cm (MT.TS.10); no sétimo grupo foram usados as mesmas amostras do grupo MT.TS.10 a 10 N.cm, porém o desaperto foi realizado pelo intermediário (MT.TS.10.A); para o último grupo foram usados as mesmas amostras do grupo MT.TS.10 e MT.TS.10.A, porém o aperto dos parafusos foi de 15 N.cm e o desaperto também se deu pelo o intermediário (MT.TS.15.A). Os valores médios e desvio padrão (dp) de pré-carga encontrados para todas as seqüências de cada grupo foram de: EH.Ti.32 (27,75; dp 7,70); EH.dlc.32 (40,17; dp 10,16); IH.Ti.20 (219,61; dp 75,47); MT.OP.20 (129,19; dp 116,71); MT.OP.32 (137,97; dp 47,53); MT.TS.10 (39,55; dp 13,96); MT.TS.10.A (126,72; dp 44,05); MT.TS.15.A (194,41; 68,48). Entre os diferentes sistemas de retenção pilar/implante estudados, pode-se concluir que: existem relações únicas entre o valor de torque aplicado no parafuso e a pré-carga gerada sobre o terço cervical do implante, essas são diretamente influenciados pelo desenho da interface pilar/implante, tipo de parafuso de retenção e valor de torque aplicado; não foi observada perda de pré-carga dos parafusos de pilares, nem perda de resistência à torção no sentido anti-rotacional dos parafusos depois de esperados 5 minutos em 5 seqüências de aperto/desaperto.The preload screw variation for the first five minutes after each one of five torque/untorque sequences from different implant/abutment retention systems was evaluated. Strain gauges were attached over the cervical third of external hex, internal hex and Morse taper implants. A controlled torque/untorque procedure allowed the record from the preload and untorque values of the samples in each one of the sequences. Thirty implant/abutment samples, divided in eight groups were studied: external hex implants with Universal post and titanium screws (Neodent, Curitiba, Brazil) screwed to 32 N.cm (EH.Ti.32); external hex, Universal post, DLC covered screw, 32 N.cm (EH.dlc.32); internal hex, Universal post, titanium screw, 20 N.cm (IH.Ti.20); Morse taper, single piece Universal post, 20 N.cm (MT.OP.20); Morse taper, single piece Universal post, 32 N.cm (MT.OP.32); Morse taper, Universal post trespassing screw, 10 N.cm (MT.TS.10); the same samples from the MT.TS.10 group were used for the seventh group, screwed to 10 N.cm, but the untorque was performed by the abutment (MT.TS.10.A); the same samples used with the MT.TS.10 and the MT.TS.10.A were used for the last group, but the screws were tightened to 15 N.cm and the untorque remained by the abutment (MT.TS.15.A). The mean and the stardad deviation (DP) found for the preloss in all the five sequences were of: EH.Ti.32 (27.75; SD 7.70); EH.dlc.32 (40.17; SD 10.16); IH.Ti.20 (219.61; SD 75.47); MT.OP.20 (129.19; SD 116.71); MT.OP.32 (137.97; SD 47.53); MT.TS.10 (39.55; SD 13.96); MT.TS.10.A (126.72; SD 44.05); MT.TS.15.A (194.41; SD 68.48). For the retention systems studied, it could be concluded that: there are single relations between screw untorque and preload over the implant cervical third, these are directely influenced by the implant/abutment interface design, screw type and torque value; there were not found post screw preload loss, neither torque resistance at the anti-rotational direction from the screws after the first five minutes in five torque/untorque sequences

In vitro integrity of implant external hexagon after application of surgical placement torque simulating implant locking

The aim of this study was to evaluate the integrity of the external hexagon of an implant system with internal and external hexagons but with prosthetic connection through the external hexagon (Internal Torque, IT) in comparison with that of an implant system with external hexagon with mount (External Hexagon, EH). A device was made to measure the rotational freedom angles between implant and abutment hexagons in 10 implants from each group after the application of surgical placement torques of 45, 60 and 80 Ncm simulating implant locking. The distances between the vertices of the external hexagon were also obtained. Rotational freedom data were subjected to ANOVA and Tukey's test (P < .05) showing no significant difference between the angles of the intact implants (EH - 3.31 ± 0.41° and IT - 3.30 ± 0.17°) and after application of a 45 Ncm torque (EH - 3.27 ± 0.38° and IT - 3.31 ± 0.22°). However, after application of a 60 Ncm torque there were significant differences (IT - 3.40 ± 0.20° and EH - 4.03 ± 0.54°). After application of a 80 Ncm torque, the IT implant presented values of 3.39 ± 0.21° whereas the EH did not support the torque, suffering deformation of its external hexagon. Within the limits of this study, it can be concluded that the IT implant system may be preferable in clinical situations where implant placement within a certain bone density could generate torques higher than 60 Ncm

Guided osteotomy and implants placed with free hands for double full arch rehabilitation with immediate prosthetic loading

ABSTRACT Precise planning for dental implant placement requires appreciation of anatomical limitations and restorative purpose. Diagnosis can be made by complementary exams such as panoramic radiography and cone-beam computed tomography. The purpose of this study was to rehabilitate the upper and lower jaw of a patient with severe periodontal disease using a guided osteotomy and implants placed with free hands and Morse taper implants. The concept of guided surgery was used to prepare the alveolar bone to place eight implants, four implants in the upper jaw and four implants in the lower jaw, all have achieved a minimum torque of 60 Ncm. The modified suture technique was used to better stabilize the soft tissue around the mini conical abutments. The analogues were scanned by CAD/CAM for confection of the metallic structures of the bridges. On the third day, the upper and lower full arch prostheses were installed and simultaneous bilateral contacts were adjusted. After 12 months of patient follow-up, the implants and prostheses were in good condition of aesthetics and function, maintaining the success of the rehabilitation. Within the limitations of this clinical case, it can be concluded that the implants placed with free hands was facilitated by a previous guided osteotomy

The Brazilian Army nurses' uniforms: visual identity in World War II

ABSTRACT Objective: To analyze the symbolic effects of the official military uniform of the nurses from Brazilian Army in World War II. Method: This research was developed using the historical method, with iconographic sources. The data were discussed based on the concepts of the social world theory, by Pierre Bourdieu. Results: The images selected demonstrate the own meaning of the uniforms, evidencing the functions and the social position of those who wear it, being private and obligatory to use it in the military field. Final considerations: In the case of the nurses from the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, the appropriation of uniforms promoted the visual communication representing military nurse in the context of war, at the same time it served for distinction purposes in the army, but not necessarily in the nursing field. Symbolically, they remained amongst the walls of the barracks even after the end of the war and, thus, they remained unknown and marked by the symbols of forgetfulness
