Rethinking the decision-making process to treat gingival recession associated w...
SANTAMARIA,Mauro Pedrine; MATHIAS-SANTAMARIA,Ingrid Fernandes; FERRAZ,Laís Fernanda Ferreira; CASARIN,Renato Corrêa Viana; ROMITO,Giuseppe AlexandreAbstract The presence of a tooth-surface defect, such as a non-carious cervical lesion (NCCL), associated with sites of gingival recession (GR) defects creates a combined soft tissue/tooth defect (CD) that requires a different treatment plan. This study aimed to critically review the literature regarding the available treatment protocols for CDs and suggest a new decision-making process. NCCLs were classified a...
Clinically relevant outcomes in dental clinical trials: challenges and proposals
PANNUTI,Claudio Mendes; SENDYK,Daniel Isaac; GRAÇAS,Yasmin Teixeira das; TAKAI,Sandra Lie; SABÓIA,Vicente de Paulo Aragão; ROMITO,Giuseppe AlexandreAbstract The impact of clinical trials on patient care depends on the outcomes that they evaluate. In Dentistry, many trials use outcomes that are important to clinicians, but not to the patients. Thus, the aim of the present manuscript is to present an overview of the limitations, challenges, and proposals on the use of clinically relevant outcomes (CRO) in dental trials. Clinically relevant outcomes are varia...
Treatment of multiple recessions with collagen matrix versus connective tissue:...
NAHAS,Rodrigo; GONDIM,Valéria; CARVALHO,Cassio Volponi; CALDERERO,Luis Marcelo; ROSA,Ecinele Francisca; SAKIYAMA,Thaís; CÉSAR NETO,João BatistaAbstract The objective of this study was to determine whether collagen matrix (CM) is an alternative to connective tissue graft technique (CTG) in the treatment of multiple gingival recessions (GR). The indication of CM for the treatment of multiple GR is not yet clear. More studies are needed to better understand this treatment modality, as an alternative to CTG. In this single-blind, split-mouth randomized cl...
Implant-based factor as possible risk for peri-implantitis
ZANDIM-BARCELOS,Daniela Leal; CARVALHO,Gabriel Garcia de; SAPATA,Vitor Marques; VILLAR,Cristina Cunha; HÄMMERLE,Christoph; ROMITO,Giuseppe AlexandreAbstract Peri-implantitis is currently a topic of major interest in implantology. Considered one of the main reasons of late implant failure, there is an emerged concern whether implant characteristics could trigger inflammatory lesion and loss of supporting bone. The purpose of this narrative review is to provide an evidence based overview on the influence of implant-based factors in the occurrence of peri-imp...
Predictors of smoking cessation in smokers with chronic periodontitis: a 24-mon...
INOUE,Gislene; ROSA,Ecinele Francisca; GOMES,Elaine Fueta; GUGLIELMETTI,Mariana Rocha; CORRAINI,Priscila; TAKANO,Ricardo Koji; FERREIRA,Viviane LéAbstract The purpose of this 24-month study was to identify predictors of smoking cessation in a cohort of smokers with chronic periodontitis, attending a multidisciplinary smoking cessation program. Of the 286 subjects screened, 116 were included and received non-surgical periodontal treatment and smoking cessation therapy, which consisted of lectures, cognitive behavioral therapy, and pharmacotherapy, accordi...
Supragingival biofilm control and systemic inflammation in patients with type 2...
ARTESE,Hilana Paula Carillo; LONGO,Priscila Larcher; GOMES,Giovane Hisse; MAYER,Marcia Pinto Alves; ROMITO,Giuseppe AlexandreThe objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of strict supragingival biofilm control on serum inflammatory markers and on periodontal clinical parameters in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with chronic severe periodontitis. Twenty-four individuals with T2DM and periodontitis were randomly allocated to two treatment groups. The supragingival therapy group (ST, n = 12) received supragingival sc...
Serum leveis of inflammatory markers in type 2 diabetes patients with chronic p...
LONGO,Priscila Larcher; ARTESE,Hilana Paula Carillo; RABELO,Marianade Sousa; KAWAMOTO,Dione; FOZ,Adriana Moura; ROMITO,Giuseppe AlexandreDiabetes has been associated with periodontitis, but the mechanisms through which periodontal diseases affect the metabolic control remain unclear. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate serum leveis of inflammatory markers, IL-8, IL-6 and monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1), in type 2 diabetic patients in the presence of chronic periodontitis. Material and Methods: Forty two individuals were enrolled i...
Influência das concavidades radiculares nas perdas clínicas de inserção, detect...
PUSTIGLIONI,Francisco Emilio; ROMITO,Giuseppe AlexandreO propósito deste estudo foi estabelecer a influência das concavidades radiculares na perda clínica de inserção (PCI) diagnosticada no exame clínico periodontal inicial. Os dados de PCI foram obtidos dos primeiros e segundos pré-molares, caninos, incisivos laterais e centrais superiores e inferiores, de 163 pacientes. Os dados foram coletados das fichas periodontais dos pacientes que procuraram a Clínica do cur...
