Abstract:

As lesões ósseas são doenças raras, mas com um grande destaque, que afetam a região maxilofacial. Dentre elas podemos destacar as Lesões Centrais de Células Gigantes e as Lesões Fibro-Ósseas Benignas (Displasia Cemento-Ossificante, Fibroma Ossificante e Displasia Fibrosa). O presente estudo teve como objetivo descrever e analisar os dados encontrados nas fichas de encaminhamento clínico presentes no Serviço de Patologia Oral e Maxilofacial da Faculdade de Odontologia da Universidade de São Paulo.

Abstract:

The objective was to determine if a correlation exists between Streptococcus mutans and DMFT in the oral cavity. This study examined the feasibility of microbial screenings as an additional caries predictor tool. The sample included 108 participants (ages 18-25) in low, moderate, and high socioeconomic groups. Subjects were selected from one dental clinic and one college in Virginia. Subjects were assessed for DMFT, salivary and plaque bacterial load, and CRA. Salivary load positively correlated with the DMFT. Plaque bacterial load and CRA negatively correlated with DMFT. Comparison of salivar

Abstract:

Oral cancer is a major health problem, with over 500000 patients diagnosed each year. Although progress has been made in regards to both diagnosis and treatment, the overall 5-year survival rate has not changed much in the last 30 years and still relatively static at around 50 %. This high mortality rate is related to late diagnosis of oral malignancies. At stages III and IV the 5-year survival rate is as low as 30 %, however if diagnosed at stage I the survival rate increases substantially to approximately 80 %. Research in to viable methods for early detection of oral malignancies and potent

In spite of electrogustometry having been in existence since the 1930s, there is no state of the art instrument to assess the electrogustometric threshold. A state of the art electrogustometer has been designed and constructed and tested for reliability and repeatability. This is based on embedded digital technology and is a semi-automatic, battery-powered portable instrument. Physical factors such as electrode area and stimulus duration affect the taste threshold but there are no recommended standards for these factors.

Periodontitis, a chronic inflammatory condition affecting the supporting structures of the teeth, is widely prevalent, affecting a large proportion of the global population, and has been linked to the development of systemic inflammatory diseases. Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is placed sixth in the WHO rankings of cancer incidence worldwide, and despite continuing research into underlying mechanisms, incidence is on the rise.

Abstract:

An exciting alternative to the current methods for bone regeneration is osseous tissue engineering. One such method focuses on enhancement of osteoblast differentiation through rotary cell culture techniques. The response of osteoblast aggregates to periodontal microorganisms and their by-products will ultimately be important in their success as a method of bone regeneration. In this study, I hypothesize that human embryonic palatal mesenchymal (HEPM, ATCC 1486) pre-osteoblast cells produce different cytokine responses depending upon whether they are grown in a 2-dimensional tissue culture fla

Abstract:

Objectives: Tooth extraction initiates a cascade of biological events leading to the reduction of alveolar ridge volume. Alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) is a surgical treatment which aims at minimizing hard and soft tissue changes following tooth extraction. Several techniques and materials have been studied and used clinically in ARP. The selection of the biomaterials used for this technique is determined by several factors, such as features of the extraction site, inherent biomaterial properties and handling preferences by the surgeon, among others.

Abstract:

Long-chain bases (sphingosine, dihydrosphingosine, and phytosphingosine) are present in the oral cavity and have potent antimicrobial activity against oral pathogens. However, little is known about their cytotoxicity for oral cells, an important step in considering their potential as future antimicrobial agents for oral infections. In this study, primary oral keratinocytes, primary oral fibroblasts, dendritic cells, and oral squamous cell carcinoma cells were exposed to 10.0-640.0 µM long-chain bases and glycerol monolaurate (GML) in cell culture medium containing resazurin (e.g., Alamar Blue,

Objectives: Extraction of a tooth leads to a series of healing events that are intimately associated with dimensional changes in the alveolar ridge that typically result in a net volume loss. Previous studies have evaluated the extent and pattern of those resorptive changes, however it remains challenging to predict the degree of change that will occur, as numerous local and systemic factors may play a role in the biologic events that follow tooth extraction.

Abstract:

Antigen expression through the Chloroplast Transformation Technology (CTT) produces bioencapsulated subunit-vaccines, capable of eliciting immune responses when delivered orally. Considerable challenges to effective plant-based vaccines are the normalization of dosage and preservation of accumulated antigen, which is complicated by variable high water content and protease activity. This study critically examines the efficacy of lyophilization in dehydrating plant-tissues and preserving plant-derived antigens with vaccine potential. Lyophilization was optimized through gravimetric analysis usin

Abstract:

<p>Osteoarthritis is one of the most common, debilitating, musculoskeletal diseases in the world. Currently, there is no cure. It is well-known that a traumatic, joint injury increases the risk of developing post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA). Therefore, in order to improve clinical treatment and prevention strategies for post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA), a series of translational studies were conducted to develop research models to evaluate the effects of impact injury. </p><p> The first section of this dissertation (Ch. 1–2) provides a comprehensive introduction and literature
