Objective. Determine the relationship of bone quality in cortical bone according to the different regions of the maxilla and mandible by histomorphometry and the equivalent Hounsfield values of Cone Beam computed tomography in partially edentulous patients. Methods. This cross-sectional study analyzed histomorphometry according to the number of osteons, osteocytes and thickness of the cortical bone and the Hounsfield units in the Cone Beam computed tomography according to gender and regions of the maxilla and mandible to determine the existing correlation in 29 patients from Graduate Clinic of The Faculty of Dentistry at the National University of San Marcos. Results. Hounsfield units average was 593 ± 121.10 in the male gender and 570 ± 127.35 in the female gender. number of osteons average was 16.5 ± 2.71 male and 12 ± 4.68 in the female. Number of osteocytes average was 179 ± 39....

Evalúa la histomorfometría del hueso cortical en rebordes edéntulos según sexo y región molar del maxilar y mandíbula. Evalúa las unidades Hounsfield del hueso cortical en rebordes edéntulos según sexo y regiones del maxilar y mandíbula y relaciona los resultados histomorfométricos del hueso cortical con la medición de las unidades Hounsfield en la tomografía computarizada Cone Beam según sexo y regiones del maxilar y mandíbula. Este estudio transversal analizó en 35 pacientes de la clínica de la Facultad de Odontología de la Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos la histomorfometría según número de osteonas, osteocitos y espesor del hueso cortical y las unidades Hounsfield en la tomografía computarizada Cone Beam según sexo y regiones del maxilar y la mandíbula para determinar la correlación existente. El promedio de las unidades Hounsfield es de 593 ±121.10 ...

Objective. To compare the antimicrobial effect of 2% tetracycline gel and 0,12% chlorhexidine gel on the dental biofilm of healing abutments on dental implants. Methods. This was an in vitro experimental cross-sectional study. Twenty-five biofilm samples were taken from the dental biofilm present on the area in contact with mucosa and the peri-implant groove of healing abutments of 19 patients. The samples were sowed in Petri dishes with Schaedler agar, three wells were made with a sterile punch and in each one tetracycline 2% in gel, 0,12% chlorhexidine in gel, and distilled water were placed in equal quantities. Then Petri dishes were incubated at 37 °C in an anaerobic medium for 48 hours after which inhibition halos were measured. Results. Both gels were inhibitors of dental biofilm growth. Tetracycline 2% in gel obtained larger diameters of inhibition halos than chlorhexidine 0,12% ...
