“…Os lasers de baixa potência atuam no potencial elétrico da membrana celular, ativando as bombas Na+/K+ ATPase, trazendo benefícios analgésicos e modulando os efeitos anti-inflamatórios do tecido. Diante disso, após três sessões de irradiação, observou-se redução da dor de 55,75%; após 3 meses, era de 64,30%, em concordância com a literatura (TOLENTINO et al 2022).…”

O laser surgiu como uma invenção disruptiva em diversos segmentos da economia, difundindo-se nas especialidades odontológicas, e por esse motivo este estudo tem como objetivo apresentar uma revisão sistemática qualitativa apresentando os tipos de laser e sua aplicação clínica através de um equipamento moderno que auxilia em diversos tratamentos proporcionando bem-estar e conforto aos pacientes. A pesquisa de estudos clínicos foi realizada na base de dados PubMed, Scopus e Web of Science de acordo com as diretrizes PRISMA, PICO, CONSORT e Cochrane. Como resultados os estudos clínicos analisados evidenciaram que o efeito analgésico, anti-inflamatórioe antibacteriano são benefícios da laserterapia, tornando o laser protagonista da odontologia moderna de alta resolutividade. Portanto, é possível concluir que essa tecnologia continuará gerando importantes inovações, tendo em vista a quantidade significativa de estudos clínicos.

The aim of this review was to provide dentists with comprehensive information regarding dentin hypersensitivity. This includes presenting its etiology, outlining the process of diagnosis, discussing clinical management strategies, and exploring technical approaches aimed at alleviating sensitivity. Dentin hypersensitivity is characterized by distinctive short, sharp pain arising from exposed cervical dentin in response to various external stimuli. The etiological factors cause two specific changes in teeth. First, the dentin surface must be exposed and denuded, which requires the loss of enamel or gingival recession combined with the loss of cementum. The second condition is the opening of the dentin tubules to allow the sensory mechanisms in the pulpal area following stimulation of the dentin surface. The accurate diagnosis of dentin hypersensitivity before receiving therapies is critical for successful treatment. The diagnosis of the disease starts through investigating the medical history of the patient and examination. In the examination, some techniques such as air stream and water rinsing are used in order to simulate the stimulating factors and to determine the degree of pain of the patient. Numerous materials and methods have been proposed to reduce or alleviate sensitivity. These materials typically exert their effects by either sealing dentin tubules or disrupting the transmission of nerve impulses. Generally, the primary approach in addressing dentin hypersensitivity involves the utilization of toothpaste containing potassium salts and fluoride. Newly introduced materials and in-office methods for treating dentin hypersensitivity include bioactive glasses, iontophoresis, CPP-ACP, and lasers.

“…Recent studies have demonstrated that new types of DAs have comparable desensitizing effects on dentine. These include nano-hydroxyapatite (n-HAp) [ 21 , 22 , 23 ], photobiomodulation therapy (PBM) with a low-level infrared laser [ 24 ], nano-sized carbonate apatite (n-CAP) [ 25 ], zinc-containing desensitizer [ 26 ], etc. Most of the DAs block the opening of the bulk of the dentinal tubules and make the dentinal surface smooth by filling the irregularities, thereby decreasing the sensitivity [ 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 ].…”

The Effect of Dentine Desensitizing Agents on the Retention of Cemented Fixed Dental Prostheses: A Systematic Review

Background and Objectives: The use of desensitizing agents (DA) after tooth preparation to prevent hypersensitivity is well documented in the literature. A fixed dental prosthesis (FDP) should have good retention to be successful. Inadequate retention may result in microleakage, secondary caries, and, eventually, dislodgement of the FDP. The effect of DAs on the retention of FDPs has been widely studied in the literature, but the results are conflicting. Thus, this study aimed to conduct a systematic review to assess the effect of dentine desensitizing agents, used to prevent post-cementation hypersensitivity, on the retention of cemented FDPs. The null hypothesis framed was that there is no effect of dentine desensitizing agents on the retention of cemented FDPs. The focused PICO question was as follows: “Does the application of dentine desensitizing agents (I) affect the retention (O) of cemented fixed dental prosthesis (P) when compared to non-dentine desensitizing groups (C)”? Materials and Methods: Four electronic databases were systematically searched and, on the basis of the predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria, 23 articles were included in this systematic review. A modified CONSORT scale for in vitro studies was used to assess the quality of the selected studies, as all included studies were in vitro studies. Results: Most of the studies compared the effect of more than one type of DA on retention. The results of the selected studies varied due to differences in the composition of tested dentine DAs and types of luting cements. Conclusions: Within the limitations of this study, it can be concluded that the retention values of FDPs cemented using zinc phosphate cement were reduced with most of the DAs, whereas retention values increased when GIC, resin-modified GIC, and resin cements were used with the majority of DAs. These findings are important, as they can guide dentists in selecting the DA before cementing the crowns with the luting agent of their choice, without compromising the retention of the crowns.
