Influence of mandibular and palatal intraoral appliances on erosion in situ stu...
Jordão,Maisa Camillo; Ionta,Franciny Querobim; Bergantin,Bianca Tozi Portaluppe; Mendonça,Fernanda Lyrio; Santos,Natália Mello dosAbstract The standardization of in situ protocols for dental erosion is important to enable comparison between studies. Objective: Thus, the objectives of this study were to evaluate the influence of the location of in situ intraoral appliance (mandibular X palatal) on the extent of enamel loss induced by erosive challenges and to evaluate the comfort of the appliances. Material and Methods: One hundred and six...
The use of remote microphone systems in unilateral hearing loss: a preliminary ...
Mondelli,Maria Fernanda Capoani Garcia; Jacob,Regina Tangerino de Souza; Honório,Heitor MarquesAbstract Due to the large number of individuals with Unilateral Hearing Loss (UHL) and the recommendation to use hearing assistive devices, studies are required to define possibilities of intervention for this population. Objective: To evaluate the performance of the Remote Microphone System (RMS) in children with UHL. Methodology: Prospective clinical study with a convenience sample. Eleven children (mean age ...

Vibrant Soundbridge and Bone Conduction Hearing Aid in Patients with Bilateral ...
Mondelli,Maria Fernanda Capoani Garcia; Mariano,Thais Cristina Barbosa; Honório,Heitor Marques; Brito,Rubens Vuono deIntroduction Hearing loss is the most common clinical finding in patients with malformation of the external ear canal. Among the possibilities of treatment, there is the adaptation of hearing aids by bone conduction and the adaptation of implantable hearing aids. Objective To assess speech perception with the use of Vibrant Soundbridge (VBS - MED-EL, Innsbruck, Austria) associated with additional amplification ...
Influence of pH, bleaching agents, and acid etching on surface wear of bovine e...
Soares,Ana Flávia; Bombonatti,Juliana Fraga Soares; Alencar,Marina Studart; Consolmagno,Elaine Cristina; Honório,Heitor MarquesABSTRACT Development of new materials for tooth bleaching justifies the need for studies to evaluate the changes in the enamel surface caused by different bleaching protocols. Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the bovine dental enamel wear in function of different bleaching gel protocols, acid etching and pH variation. Material and Methods Sixty fragments of bovine teeth were cut, obtaining a cont...
Porosity of temporary denture soft liners containing antifungal agents
Lima,Jozely Francisca Mello; Maciel,Janaína Gomes; Hotta,Juliana; Vizoto,Ana Carolina Pero; Honório,Heitor Marques; Urban,Vanessa MiglioriniABSTRACT Incorporation of antifungals in temporary denture soft liners has been recommended for denture stomatitis treatment; however, it may affect their properties. Objective: To evaluate the porosity of a tissue conditioner (Softone) and a temporary resilient liner (Trusoft) modified by minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of antifungal agents for Candida albicans biofilm. Material and Methods: The poros...
Degree of satisfaction among hearing aid users
Mondelli,Maria Fernanda Capoani Garcia; Rocha,Andressa Vital; Honório,Heitor MarquesINTRODUCTION: Hearing loss (HL) is defined as the complete or partial loss of hearing ability. AIMS: To characterize (1) the degree of satisfaction among adult and elderly hearing aid (HA) users who were treated by a public hearing health service and (2) the relationship between satisfaction and the variables of gender, age, degree of HL, and type of HA. METHOD: The clinical and experimental study included the ...
pH-cycling models for in vitro evaluation of the efficacy of fluoridated dentif...
Buzalaf,Marília Afonso Rabelo; Hannas,Angélica Reis; Magalhães,Ana Carolina; Rios,Daniela; Honório,Heitor Marques; Delbem,Alberto Carlos BotazzoDespite a plethora of in situ studies and clinical trials evaluating the efficacy of fluoridated dentifrices on caries control, in vitro pH cycling models are still broadly used because they mimic the dynamics of mineral loss and gain involved in caries formation. This paper critically reviews the current literature on existing pH-cycling models for the in vitro evaluation of the efficacy of fluoridated dentifr...
Effect of 4% titanium tetrafluoride solution on the erosion of permanent and de...
Magalhães,Ana Carolina; Rios,Daniela; Honório,Heitor Marques; Delbem,Alberto Carlos Botazzo; Buzalaf,Marília Afonso RabeloThis in situ/ex vivo study assessed the effect of titanium tetrafluoride (TiF4) solution on erosion of permanent (P) and deciduous (d) human enamel. Ten volunteers wore acrylic palatal appliances containing 4 enamel samples, divided into two rows: TiF4 and no - TiF4 (control). Each row contained one deciduous and one permanent enamel sample. During the 1st day, formation of a salivary pellicle was allowed. At t...
