Introdução: Atualmente, os índices do edentulismo diminuíram, embora a preocupação pela reabilitação dentária aumentaram, o que gera foco de estudos sobre as expectativas que essa população procura os serviços dessa área da odontologia. Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo foi fazer uma revisão de literatura sobre os impactos psicossociais que a estética dentária pode causar na qualidade de vida de sujeitos que são submetidos a próteses convencionais e sobre implantes. Método: Foram selecionados artigos disponíveis na base de dados MEDLINE (Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System on-line) publicados em inglês, no período compreendido entre 2008-2018; Resultados: Os principais resultados encontrados foi que a estética dentária tem influência direta na autoestima e por isso os indivíduos sofrem com uma barreira pessoal e profissional, manifestando negativamente na sua qualidade de vida. Porém, população que são reabilitados com próteses sobre implantes parece ter maior preocupação com sua estética e por isso sofreram mais com depressão, ao passo que isso aumenta quando se trata de dentes posicionados anteriormente na arcada dentária. Conclusão: Conclui-se que a estética dentária influencia psicossocialmente em um indivíduo, causando impactos na qualidade de vida de edêntulos, além disso, há diferenças psicológicas na população que busca reabilitação com próteses convencionais e implantossuportadas e a posição que os dentes perdidos ocupavam no arco dentário.Descritores: Próteses e Implantes; Estética Dentária; Qualidade de Vida.ReferênciasGavric A, Mirceta D, Jakobovic M, Pavlic A, Zrinski MT, Spalj S.

A cirurgia de terceiros molares, embora seja um procedimento rotineiro em nível ambulatorial pode evoluir para complicações trans ou pós-operatorias, as quais o cirurgião deverá estar apto para conduzir os casos da maneira mais adequada. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi avaliar a prevalência das complicações associados a terceiros molares em um serviço de referência no sertão paraibano, Brasil. Este estudo se trata de pesquisa retrospectiva com levantamentos de dados através de prontuários odontológicos, os quais para serem inclusos para análise deveriam estar preenchidos completamente e os pacientes terem se submetidos a exodontias de algum terceiro molar e acompanhado por pelo menos 07 dias pós-operatório. A amostra foi formada com 226 prontuários, os quais registram 483 desses tipos de exodontias. Verificou-se que as complicações tiveram uma prevalência geral de 8,9%, de forma que as mais frequentes foram fratura radicular (27,9%), alveolite (20,93%), parestesia do nervo alveolar inferior (18,6%), parestesia do nervo lingual (7,0%), hemorragia trans-operatória (7,0%), fratura do túber da maxila (4,65%), parestesia do nervo facial (2,32%), luxação da ATM (2,32%), fratura de broca (2,32%), hemorragia pós-operatória (2,32%), laceração de tecido mole (2,32%), e lipotínea (2,32%). Conclui-se que os pacientes na faixa etária de 16 a 25 anos, do gênero feminino foram os mais acometidos e a fratura radicular apresentou-se mais prevalente seguida da alveolite e parestesia do nervo alveolar inferior.Descritores: Prevalência; Cirurgia Bucal; Dente Serotino.ReferênciasCosta MG, Pazzini CA, Pantuzo MCG, Jorge MLR, Marques LS.
