“…Still regarding to the reason for the first appointment, a greater demand was observed related to tooth trauma over caries lesion treatment. The possible motives for this could be the great impact on the quality of life of children caused by tooth trauma [19] and the parents' concern on situations of accidents and falls with loss of oral-dental physical integrity, leading to the search for immediate treatment.…”

Objective: To evaluate changes in oral health-related behavior of infants following preventive program of continuing education directed to their parents. Material and Methods: We analyzed 53 dental files of infants aged up to 36 months, who participated in the Prevention and Education Program of the Infants Clinic, School of Dentistry of Bauru (USP), and attended at least 2 visits with a maximum of 4 missing appointments. Initially an educational lecture was conducted, pointing issues related to diet and oral hygiene. At the following visit, the professional filled in a form with questions about diet and hygiene performed at home. The following information was extracted from dental files: reason of the first visit, age, number of teeth, number of visits, missing appointments, and dietary and oral hygiene risk factors. The data were tabulated and analyzed using descriptive statistics comparing the information obtained from the first visit to that of the last one. Results: The reason for the first visit was dental caries prevention (88.68%) followed by dental trauma (7.55%), and needed of curative treatment (3.77%). The mean age of the sample was 14.85 months, the tooth number mean was 12.64 at first visit, the mean number of visits was 7 and the mean missing appointments was 0.83. The percentage of infants with inadequate diet and hygiene habits was 88.68% and 62.26%, and only 12.762% and 57.57% of these have changed their habits, respectively. Conclusion: After the preventive program of continuing education, the dietary habits showed were more difficult to change in relation to hygiene ones.

This report describes the 10-year follow-up data of a patient who underwent fragment reattachment to the maxillary central incisor after coronal fracture with pulp exposure as well as the procedures followed for functional and esthetic adjustments. A 9-year-old female patient presented at the clinic of dentistry at the State University of Rio de Janeiro with a coronal fracture and pulp exposure of the right maxillary central incisor that had occurred immediately after an accident. The intact tooth fragment was recovered at the accident site and stored in milk. The treatment plan followed was to perform direct pulp capping and tooth fragment reattachment. When the patient was 14 years old, adhesion between fragment and remaining tooth was lost, and fragment reattachment was performed. Five years later, the same tooth presented clinical discoloration and absence of sensitivity during pulp vitality tests. Subsequently, a new treatment plan was formulated, which included endodontic treatment, followed by nonvital tooth bleaching and light-cured composite resin restoration. An esthetic and natural-looking restoration was achieved. Tooth fragment reattachment is not a temporary restorative technique and requires functional and esthetic adjustments over time to maintain the biomimetic characteristics of traumatized anterior teeth and predictable outcomes.

“…Apesar de não terem buscado o atendimento para restaurar o dano perdido, sabemos que os TADs podem impactar negativamente na qualidade de vida de crianças e adolescentes [13][14][15] . Crianças que sofreram trauma e não receberam tratamento restaurador tendem a relatar maior impacto, como dificuldade em se alimentar e fazer a higiene bucal, e acabam demonstrando mais vergonha de sorrir, sentem-se chateadas, o que interfere na fonação, quando comparadas àquelas que não sofreram trauma 3,13,16,17 .…”

“…Negligenciar o tratamento pode aumentar em até quatro vezes o impacto na qualidade de vida, no sorriso, na alimentação e no convívio com outras pessoas 3,15,18,21 . Para tratamentos de fraturas de esmalte e dentina, como nos casos deste estudo, em sua grande maioria, apenas restaurações adesivas são necessárias como solução para os traumas.…”

IntroduçãoO traumatismo alvéolo dentário (TAD) pode ocorrer desde uma pequena fratura no esmalte até a perda definitiva do elemento dentário. Em sua maioria, os traumas são em regiões anteriores, interferindo não apenas na função, mas também na estética, passando a ter valor especial na vida de crianças e adolescentes. Os incisivos centrais, além de estarem na região anterior, apresentam particularidades, como overjet incisal (protrusão dos dentes ântero-superiores nos pacientes classe II de Angle divisão I) e selamento labial reduzido 1 . Concomitante a isso, a prática de esportes sem cuidados prévios, o aumento dos níveis de violên-cia, acidentes de trânsito, e a maior participação das crianças em atividades esportivas contribuem para transformar o TAD em problema de saúde pú-blica emergente 2 . Além do comprometimento esté-tico, gera ansiedade e incapacidades físicas, como fonação e mastigação, interferindo diretamente na qualidade de vida da população infantil e juvenil 3 , criando constrangimentos que fazem com que crianças e adolescentes evitem sorrir. O fato de o TAD acometer com maior prevalência os dentes anteriores faz desse problema uma das maiores causas de urgências odontológicas 4 . Pouca atenção, todavia, tem sido endereçada ao tratamento das lesões traumáticas, especialmente às fraturas que levam ao comprometimento estéti-co. No Brasil, um estudo em Joaçaba, SC, mostrou a necessidade de tratamento em 88,0% dos casos. Isso representa uma frequência relativa de 9,8
