La enfermedad periodontal es una afección crónica que tiene una alta prevalencia en el ser humano, siendo de interés realizar un tratamiento conservador para controlarlo; generalmente el tratamiento periodontal va de la mano con el uso de antimicrobianos de uso sistémico y tópico, los cuales pueden presentar efectos secundarios locales y sistémicos con su uso prolongado. El uso del ozono en todas sus formas de aplicación (gas, agua, aceite), brindan beneficios biológicos debido a su actividad contra las toxinas microbianas implicadas en las enfermedades periodontales, aparte de tener propiedades curativas y regeneradoras de tejidos, hacen que el uso del ozono sea una alternativa para el manejo de este tipo de afecciones bucales. El objetivo de este artículo es proporcionar una revisión bibliográfica sobre uso del ozono como coadyuvante en el tratamiento de las enfermedades per...

La enfermedad periodontal causa la pérdida de dientes en las mujeres embarazadas. Existe mucha evidencia que relaciona al embarazo con el desarrollo de las enfermedades periodontales, debido a la relación entre las hormonas sexuales con los tejidos periodontales; sin embargo, lo que llama la atención es la afinidad que hay entre estas hormonas con la prevalencia de la bacteria Prevotella intermedia. En tal sentido, se realizó una revisión bibliográfica actualizada con el objetivo de analizar si existe relación entre la presencia de la Prevotella intermedia con el desarrollo y la magnificación de las enfermedades periodontales en las mujeres embarazadas. Tomando en cuenta la evidencia científica analizada, se llegó a la conclusión que sí hay relación entre la Prevotella intermedia y el desarrollo y magnificación de las enfermedades periodontales durante la etapa del embarazo...

The removal of alveolar bone and periodontal ligament due to periodontal disease oftenrequires a surgical approach to reshape the biological structure and functions of theperiodontium. Hydrogel, a functional polymeric material, has emerged as a promising technology for periodontal disease therapies. It has the versatility to mimic the extracellular matrix and provide suitable binding sites and growth environments for periodontal cells, with high biocompatibility, water retention, and slow release. A review of the past 5 years of literature has been conducted, summarizing the main components of hydrogel in periodontal tissue regeneration.

Supernumerary teeth are dental units that appear in addition to the regular number of teeth. Their most common location is at the level of the anterior midline of the maxilla, known as mesiodens, but they can also be paramedian; or in the position of a lateral incisor. This article reviews the case of an inverted permanent supernumerary mesiodens in a child aged 15 years and 3 months. The patient was non-syndromic and did not have any other supernumerary teeth in the permanent dentition. Using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) of the region, we were able to assess the position, structure, and shape of the supernumerary, as well as establish an adequate treatment plan. The aim of this paper was to present this anomalous case of an inverted supernumerary tooth located in the palate, and to include a review of the literature on the few reported cases of this type.

Objective. The purpose of this review was to gather scientifc evidenceon the clinical results obtained by using the Bichat’s adipose body (BAB)in the treatment of gingival recessions. Methods. The PubMed, Cochraneand Wiley Online Library databases were reviewed. Using the followingsearch terms: “buccal” AND “adipose tissue” OR “fat pad” AND “coverage” AND “gingival recession”. By combining searches and fltering only documents that contain the English-language review target, only 9 articles that meet the inclusion criteria were generated. Results. The information found, where pediculated and free grafts with the Bichat’s adipose body were used, was analyzed, fnding good results in all cases; which means that this is a good autologous alternative for the treatment of gingival  recessions, in the face of the limitations of palate grafts. Conclusions. The use of Bich...

During the management of the patients who come to dental treatment, there are often situations that can be contributing to make some type of mistake or cause complications that go hand in hand, not only with the fact of a lack of capacity or preparation of the dentist, but the degree of collaboration or anxiety that the patient may have during their care; This level of collaboration is usually given by the good or bad experiences that the patient has previously had, which can cause fear and fear of being in front of dental treatment. Deaths rarely occur in doctors' offices and the implications for dentists can be deduced from scientific publications and internet reports on deaths in dental offices. This type of situation can result in a distraction or lack of vigilance of the professional before the procedure that is being performed. To establish death care, a review of the most recent a...

A la fecha, se han descrito varios procedimientos para lograr conservar el reborde alveolar después de la extracción dental. La técnica Socket Shield se introdujo en el año 2010, y consiste en conservar una porción vestibular de la raíz del diente e instalar un implante dental inmediato. El objetivo de este trabajo fue analizar la literatura científica actualizada para evidenciar las características de la técnica de Socket Shield. Para tal fin, se realizó una revisión bibliográfica en las bases de datos PubMed y Wiley, con los siguientes términos de búsqueda: Socket Shield and immediate implant placement ("2014/10/02" [PDat]: "2019/12/30" [PDat]). Se incluyeron artículos relacionados con la técnica de Socket Shield para colocar implantes inmediatos; solo se citaron artículos en inglés y con cinco años de antigüedad para contar con información actualizada. Se describi...

This disease, called Sjögren's disease, is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by the infiltration of inflammatory cells in the salivary and lacrimal glands, resulting in atrophy of acinar epithelial cells, cell death and loss of exocrine function; and women are nine times more likely than men to be affected by this condition, and systemic reactions can occur, involving practically any organ system. Pathogenesis is always difficult to achieve; but the diagnosis is based on characteristic clinical signs and symptoms and autoantibodies. This concern is what led us to carry out a review of the literature in PLOS ONE, PUBMED and GOOGLE SCHOLAR journals. The purpose of this review article is to summarize the recent literature on Sjögren's syndrome, from its pathogenesis to current treatment options.

When patients reach an advanced age, they usually present a higher prevalence of periodontal diseases, so the dental treatment they receive will be a fundamental factor in maintaining their oral health (1,2).

X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is the most common hereditary form of rickets and osteomalacia. It results from dysregulated fbroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) due to a mutation in the PHEX gene, leading to decreased tubular phosphate reabsorption, reduced renal 1a-hydroxylase activity, and increased renal 24-hydroxylase activity. Patients with XLH present with rickets and osteomalacia, severe lower limb deformities, bone and muscle pain, growth retardation, and reduced quality of life. As a multisystemic disorder, XLH requires a multidisciplinary approach involving highly specialized felds. Severe complications associatedwith XLH include craniosynostosis, hearing loss, progressive bone deformities, recurrent dentaland periodontal lesions, and psychosocial distress. Given these concerns, we conducted a literature review of PLOS ONE and the PubMed and Google Scholar databases, focusing on...
