Microleakage Evaluation of Temporary Restorations Used in Endodontic Treatment-...
Paulo, Siri; Abrantes, Ana M.; Xavier, Mariana; Brito, Ana Filipa; Teixo, Ricardo; Coelho, Ana; Paula, Anabela; Carrilho, Eunice(1) Background: Coronal microleakage can lead to endodontic treatment failure. This study aimed to compare the sealing ability of different temporary restorative materials used during endodontic treatment. (2) Methods: Eighty sheep incisors were collected, uniformized in length, and access cavities were performed, except for in the negative control group, where the teeth were left intact. The teeth were divided...
Effect of Different Irrigation Solutions on the Diffusion of MTA Cement into th...
Martinho, José Pedro; França, Sara; Paulo, Siri; Paula, Anabela Baptista; Coelho, Ana Sofia; Abrantes, Ana Margarida; Caramelo, Francisco(1) Aim: This study aims to analyze the in vitro infiltration of a silicate root canal sealer into dentinal tubules after using different endodontic irrigating solutions. (2) Methods: Twenty-nine teeth with single roots were separated into three groups according to the final irrigation protocol: G1 n = 10) = 17% EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) + 3.0% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), G2 (n = 10) = 17% EDTA + ...
Calcium Phosphate Ceramics Can Prevent Bisphosphonate-Related Osteonecrosis of ...
Paulo, Siri; Laranjo, Mafalda; Paula, Anabela; Abrantes, Ana Margarida; Martins, João; Marto, Carlos Miguel; Coelho, Ana Sofia; Casalta-Lopes, JoãoBisphosphonate-associated osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ), a post-surgical non-healing wound condition, is one of the most common side effects in patients treated with nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates. Its physiopathology has been related with suppression of bone turnover, of soft tissue healing and infection. Biphasic calcium phosphates (BCP) are used as a drug delivery vehicle and as a bone substitute in ...
Oculo-Facio-Cardio-Dental Syndrome: A Case Report about a Rare Pathological Con...
Martinho, José Pedro; Ferreira, Hugo; Paulo, Siri; Paula, Anabela; Marto, Carlos Miguel; Carrilho, Eunice; Ferreira, Manuel Marques(1) Background: Oculo-facio-cardio-dental (OFCD) syndrome is a rare pathological condition with an X-linked dominant trait that only occurs in females; no males are born with OFCD syndrome. This syndrome is characterized by congenital cataracts with secondary glaucoma ocular defects, ventricular and atrial septal defects, or mitral valve prolapses. Facial traits are a long narrow face and a high nasal bridge wi...
Biocompatibility of Root Canal Sealers: A Systematic Review of In Vitro and In ...
Fonseca, Diogo Afonso; Paula, Anabela Baptista; Marto, Carlos Miguel; Coelho, Ana; Paulo, Siri; Martinho, José Pedro; Carrilho, Eunice(1) Aim: To perform a systematic review of the literature on the biocompatibility of root canal sealers that encompasses the various types of sealers that are commercially available as well as both in vitro and in vivo evidence. (2) Methods: This systematic review has been registered in PROSPERO (ID 140445) and was carried out according to PRISMA guidelines using the following databases: PubMed, Cochrane Librar...
Synthetic Calcium Phosphate Ceramics as a Potential Treatment for Bisphosphonat...
Paulo, Siri; Laranjo, Mafalda; Abrantes, Ana M.; Casalta-Lopes, João; Santos, Kathleen; Gonçalves, Ana C.; Paula, Anabela Baptista; Marto, Carlos Miguel(1) Background: Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) is one of the most often seen side effects in patients treated with nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates (BPs), a post-surgical non-healing wound condition. Since calcium phosphate (CP) compounds are able to adsorb zoledronate (ZOL) when used as a drug delivery vehicle, we aimed to verify if these ceramics might have a potential protective e...
Anaesthesia in Dental Medicine with Local Infiltrative Anaesthetic Technique Ve...
Ferreira, Manuel; Carrilho, Eunice; Paulo, Siri; Carrilho, Teresa; Figueiredo, José Pedro; Macedo, RicardoThis study aimed to compare the analgesic efficacy and the influence of local infiltrative anesthesia techniques, with diploe anesthesia, on the cardiac rhythmMaterial and Methods: We selected 32 healthy volunteers who were given both anaesthetic techniques on tooth 1.4 (0.45 mL of lidocaine with adrenaline, 1:80 000). In the first phase, the volunteers underwent periapical infiltrative anaesthesia. In the seco...

Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw: specificities
Paulo, Siri; Abrantes, Ana M.; Laranjo, Mafalda; Carvalho, Lina; Serra, Arménio; Botelho, Maria Filomena; Ferreira, Manuel MarquesBisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (BRONJ) is a severe complication that has recently emerged in patients treated with intravenous bisphosphonates for malignant diseases. This complication usually presents after a minor local trauma during a dental treatment. Several etiopathogenic mechanisms of this pathological condition have been proposed, but no model can explain all morphological changes obse...
