Objetivo. Estimar la prevalencia de trastornos temporomandibulares (TTM) en estudiantes de Odontología de la Universidad Juárez del Estado de Durango, México. Material y métodos. Se trata de un estudio descriptivo, observacional, prospectivo y transversal. El universo de estudio contempló a la población estudiantil de la Facultad de Odontología, de la Universidad Juárez del Estado de Durango (México). Se incluyeron alumnos que cursaron del 1.o al 8.o semestre durante el ciclo escolar 2018-A, con edades entre los 18 y 28 años, a quienes se les aplicó un instrumento (índice anamnésico simplificado de Fonseca) que permitió caracterizar los TTM. El tamaño de la muestra se determinó utilizando el software Epi InfoTM y se obtuvo un tamaño de muestra total de 263 individuos. Para describir los datos, se utilizó el paquete estadístico R Studio Team (2019). Resultados. La prevalencia total de TTM en la población estudiada fue del 63% y el TTM más prevalente fue el leve, con un 44%. La prueba Ji2 entre el sexo y el TTM muestra significancia estadística (p = 0,001), igual que entre el sexo y los ítems del índice simplificado de Fonseca: ítem 4 (p = 0,001), ítem 7 (p = 0,021), ítem 8 (p = 0,021), ítem 9 (0,001) y el ítem 10 (p = 0,001). Conclusiones. Existe una alta prevalencia de TTM en la población estudiantil de la Facultad de Odontología de la Universidad Juárez del Estado de Durango (México), y el sexo femenino tiene una relación con la presencia y la manifestación de síntomas en estos trastornos.
Dental fluorosis can cause changes in the enamel surface, conditioning its functionality and esthetics. The application of dental adhesives is a treatment option; however, their use on fluorotic teeth can result in limitations. The aim of this study was to compare the shear bond strength of two different adhesives, one with 10-MDP and one without 10-MDP, in different degrees of dental fluorosis.This is an in vitro study on dental enamel samples, a total of 180 samples with the inclusion criteria were treated, randomly divided into two groups of 90, according to the type of dental adhesive, where each group was again divided into three groups of 30 samples, representing different degrees of dental fluorosis according to the Thylstrup-Fejerskov index (Group I: TF1 and TF2; Group II: TF3; Group III: TF4). Normality tests, two-factor ANOVA, and post-hoc tests were used to determine differences between the groups, with a significance level of 95%. As results, a statistically significant difference was shown between the use of dental adhesive with 10-MDP and the three groups of dental fluorosis (p=0.011), in addition, a Tukey post-hoc test on the groups treated with 10-MDP adhesive revealed a statistically significant difference between group I versus group II, and group I versus group III, (p=<0.05). It is concluded that the use of adhesive systems with 10-MDP presents a better shear bond strength on enamel with dental fluorosis grades I and II in the Thylstrup-Fejerskov index.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
