Evaluation of the agreement by examiners according to classifications of third molars

Objectives. This study recorded and evaluated the intra- and inter-group agreement degree by different examiners for the classification of lower third molars according to both the Winter's and Pell and Gregory's systems. Study Design. An observational and cross-sectional study was realized with forty lower third molars analyzed from twenty digital panoramic radiographs. Four examiner groups (undergraduates, maxillofacial surgeons, oral radiologists and clinical dentists) from Aracaju, Sergipe, Brazil, classified them in relation to angulation, class and position. The variance test (ANOVA) was applied in the examiner findings with significance level of p<0.05 and confidence intervals of 95%. Results. Intra- and inter-group agreement was observed in Winter's classification system among all examiners. Pell and Gregory's classification system showed an average intra-group agreement and a statistical significant difference to position variable in inter-group analysis with greater disagreement to the clinical dentists group (p<0.05). Conclusions. High reproducibility was associated to Winter's classification, whereas the system proposed by Pell and Gregory did not demonstrate appropriate levels of reliability. © Medicina Oral

RESUMO - O presente trabalho objetivou compreender a percepção das gestantes do Programa Saúde da Família em relação aos problemas bucais e ao tratamento odontológico na gestação, no município de Ribeirópolis-SE. Foram entrevistadas 41 gestantes, utilizando-se um roteiro de entrevista com questões abertas e fechadas, e a análise dos resultados foi desenvolvida através de metodologia quantitativa e qualitativa. Os resultados mostraram que a grande maioria das gestantes acreditam em mitos e crenças enraizados na cultura popular, no que se refere principalmente a prejuízos à saúde bucal decorrentes da gestação e à contraindicação do tratamento odontológico na gravidez. Concluiu-se que os profissionais das equipes de saúde devem buscar desmistificar tais mitos e crenças, priorizando ações de promoção de saúde que conduzam à melhoria da saúde bucal e qualidade de vida tanto da mãe quanto dos seus filhos.ABSTRACT - The present work aimed to understand the perception of pregnant women in the Family Health Program related to the oral problems and dental treatment during gestation, in the city of Ribeirópolis-SE.

The structural, economic, and civilizational life of the city was modified, because of the success of cocoa cultivation, reflecting an incipient and customized urban organization of new leisure practices for a privileged minority. Business and diplomatic relations with the English were immersed in such a dynamic, and the port and the railway.

Prediction of postoperative facial swelling, pain and trismus following third molar surgery based on preoperative variables

Objective: This paper investigates the relationship between preoperative findings and short-term outcome in third molar surgery. Study design: A prospective study was carried out involving 80 patients who required 160 surgical extractions of impacted mandibular third molars between January 2009 and December 2010. All extractions were performed under local anesthesia by the same dental surgeon. Swelling and maximal inter-incisor distance were measured at 48 h and on the 7th day postoperatively. Mean visual analogue pain scores were determined at four different time periods. Results: One-hundred eight (67.5%) of the 160 extractions were performed on male subjects and 52 (32.5%) were performed on female subjects. Median age was 22.46 years. The amount of facial swelling varied depending on gender and operating time. Trismus varied depending on gender, operating time and tooth sectioning. The influence of age, gender and operating time varied depending on the pain evaluation period (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Short-term outcomes of third molar operations (swelling, trismus and pain) differ depending on the patients' characteristics (age, gender and body mass index). Moreover, surgery characteristics such as operating time and tooth sectioning were also associated with postoperative variables

Odontogenic tumors: clinical and pathology study of 238 cases

SummaryOdontogenic tumors are neoplasms that develops exclusively in the gnathic bones; they originate from odontogenic tissues, by epithelial or mesenchymal proliferation, or both.AimTo evaluate the incidence of odontogenic tumors in a specific institution, and to compare these findings with other studies in the literature.Study formatA cross-sectional cohort retrospective study.Material and methodThe sample was obtained from the files of patients with odontogenic tumors diagnosed between January 1992 and March 2007 (15 years). Cases in which the diagnosis could be adapted to the new World Health Organization (WHO) of 2005 were included. Data such as gender, age, anatomical site, histological type and symptomatology were analyzed.ResultsOdontogenic tumors were 4.76% of all biopsied lesions within the studied period. The mean age was 30.7 years; 57% of the patients were male. The keratocystic odontogenic tumor was the most prevalent histological type (30%), followed by the ameloblastoma (23,7%). The rate of asymptomatic cases was 75.7%.ConclusionOdontogenic tumors occurred more frequently in females, in the second and third decades of life, and more commonly in the mandible; most cases were asymptomatic

SIGNIFICADOS E METÁFORAS DA COVID-19 NA EXPERIÊNCIA DE HOMENS ADULTOS QUE TIVERAM A DOENÇA

Objetivo: compreender os significados e metáforas da Covid-19 na experiência de homens que tiveram a doença.

Epidemiology of oral and maxillofacial injuries by aggression in Aracaju/SE

Este trabalho foi baseado em uma pesquisa prospectiva, transversal e observacional com a finalidade de analisar as características dos traumatismos buco-maxilo-faciais por agressão no Hospital de Urgência de Sergipe (HUSE). Foram atendidos 106 pacientes cuja análise estatística demonstrou uma prevalência por indivíduos do gênero masculino (69,4%), da cor parda (52,7%), predominantemente na faixa etária de 21 a 30 anos (34%) e atendidos no período da noite (54,7%). O mecanismo mais utilizado na agressão física foi o soco ou chute (72,6%); o principal agressor foi uma pessoa desconhecida (31,1%), e a discussão foi o motivo mais freqüente da agressão (52,7%). A maioria dos pacientes (66%) foi agredida pela primeira vez. Todos apresentaram algum tipo de lesão de tecido mole, ocorrendo predominância das lacerações (66,1%). Traumatismos dento-alveolares ocorreram em 40,5%, e as fraturas faciais, em 64,1% dos pacientes. Foi constatado que a violência doméstica esteve mais correlacionada às agressões em mulheres, e que os homens foram predominantemente vítimas de agressores desconhecidos. Estas informações podem ser úteis para caracterizar as principais necessidades de atendimento de urgência de pacientes vítimas por agressão bem como auxiliar na adoção de medidas governamentais preventivas para traumatismos desta etiologia._________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT: This paper was based on a prospective, cross-sectional and observational study for the purpose of analyzing the characteristics of maxillofacial injuries due to aggression in the Emergency Hospital of Sergipe (HUSE). A total of 106 patients were treated, the statistical analysis demonstrating a prevalence of male (69.,4%), brown-skinned i (52.,7%) individuals, with a predominance of the 21-30 years age group (34%) and seen at nighttime (54.,7%). The mechanism most commonly used in the physical aggression was kicking or punching (72.,6%), the main aggressor was a stranger (31.,1%) and an argument was the most frequent cause of the aggression (52.7%). The majority of the patients (66%) had been injured for the first time. All presented some kind of soft tissue injury, with a predominance of lacerations (66.1%). Dento-alveolar injuries had occurred in 40.,5% and facial bone fractures were found in 64.,1% of the patients. Domestic violence turned out to be the type most closely correlated with aggression affecting women and men were more frequently victims of aggression committed by strangers. These data may be helpful in determining the paramount needs in the emergency care of patients who are victims of physical aggression and may also be of use in the adoption of preventive government measures for dealing with traumatism of this origin
