Ítem Acceso Abierto Análisis comparativo del desempeño clínico de las resinas Bulk Fill y reforzadas con Fibra: Una revisión sistemática en Odontología Restaurativa.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2023) González Ortiz , Alexis Israel; Herrera Carangui, Nathaly Cristina; Urgiles Urgiles, Cristian Danilo; 0302501564; 0302989199; .Dental restorative materials are organic-mineral materials employed in dental procedures. The Bulk Fill resins usage is associated with monoblock techniques, reducing clinical time; fiber-reinforced resins present excellent mechanical properties such as increased resistance to occlusal forces due to their mechanical properties. Materials and methods: Descriptive research with a quantitative approach was conducted, following the PRISMA statement. Initially, 245 documents were identified, and after applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, 13 documents were selected for the study. Results: After examining success rates, clinical performance, and application difficulties, the findings indicated that Bulk Fill resin restorations have a success rate of over 95% between 6 months and five years; its complications included lack of adaptation, marginal staining, and microleakage. On the other hand, fiber-reinforced resins showed a high success rate with a fatigue resistance of 87%, with non-catastrophic fractures identified as complications. Conclusions: The two resin systems have presented excellent clinical performance so their use is recommended; therefore, research is limited by the lack of literature on fiber-reinforced resins because they are a new element in restorative dentistry.Ítem Acceso Abierto Atención odontológica en adultos durante el brote de Covid-19 en el Distrito de Salud 03D01. Azogues - Ecuador(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2023) Pañora Coronel, María Gisela; Vallejo Aguirre, Rodrigo Fernando; 0302620984; .OBJECTIVE: To identify the characteristics of dental care in adults during the outbreak of COVID-19 in health district 03D01.MATERIALS AND METHODS: A quantitative, descriptive, and retrospective study was conducted where the gathered information included data related to dental care for young adults in health district 03D01 of the province of Cañar from March to December 2020.RESULTS: According to the analysis of reviewed statistical data, it was observed that November and December showed an increase in dental care for adults (15.57%) and (15.85%), respectively, also marking the frequency of attendance. The mestizo ethnic group was the most attended (95.8%). Regarding gender, women had a higher percentage of attendance (64.3%), with the majority of patients coming from rural areas (45.3%) during isolation and urban areas (58.8%) during distancing. Intramural care was prevailing (99.0%), and the predominant ICD-10 group was Group 8 - Dental Examination (38.5%) and Group 3, Diseases of the Pulp and Periapical Tissues (40.0%). CONCLUSIONS: During the isolation period, dental care decreased due to state-imposed restrictions. However, the urban area had the highest attendance, especially by women seeking treatment for pulp diseases, caries, and other pathologies of hard dental tissues due to pain or routine dental examination.Ítem Acceso Abierto Conocimientos, actitudes y prácticas sobre salud bucal, mediante el índice de Hiroshima HU-DBI, en estudiantes de odontología de la Universidad Católica de Cuenca Campus Azogues.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2023) Carpio Jaramillo, María José; Guerrero Guerrero, María Rosario; Morocho Macas , Ángel Aurelio; 1104884273; 0107078008; .Introduction: The training process of dentistry in oral health should consider educational, social, economic, and personal attitude aspects essential for the academic formation of students. Objective: To determine the level of knowledge, attitudes, and practices on oral health in dentistry students at the Catholic University of Cuenca Campus Azogues by applying the Hiroshima HU-DBI index from July 2023 to July 2024. Methodology: The research was observational, descriptive, and cross-sectional, in which the Hiroshima University Dental Behavior Inventory (HU-DBI) was applied. The population comprised 395 students; the sample was 256 students; the sampling was stratified random probability sampling with proportional allocation, the strata being the academic cycles and their population. Results: The study established a higher prevalence of females (63.3%), urban students (77.7%), and adults (72.7%) in the age group, but no significant differences were found in variables related to age, sex, and origin. Conclusions: The study revealed a median HU-DBI score of 7.17, indicating a need for improvement in oral health care knowledge, attitudes, and practices. Clinical students scored higher on the HU-DBI scale than preclinical students, indicating the necessity for early courses in dental public health, preventive dentistry, and profile analysis in undergraduate dental programs to improve the oral health knowledge of students and future professionals.Ítem Acceso Abierto Contaminación bacteriana de la pieza de mano de alta velocidad, jeringa triple y equipo ultrasónico por la producción de aerosoles según el área de especialidad en los centros de especialidades odontológicas de Azogues de la Universidad Católica de Cuenca en el Periodo 2023(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2023) Andrade Ordóñez , Karen Lisseth; Redrován Reyes , Piedad Cecilia; Montesinos Rivera, Mayra Vannessa; 0302855176; 0105194203; .In dental clinics, activities pose microbiological contamination risks to professionals and patients. Objective: To determine the degree of bacterial contamination in the turbine, triple syringe, and ultrasonic equipment according to the area of specialty in the Dental Specialty Centers (CEO by its Spanish acronym) of the Catholic University of Cuenca Campus Azogues (UCACUE by its Spanish acronym). Methodology: An observational and descriptive study was conducted in the CEO I and II of the UCACUE, sampling 24 dental chairs, 8 in CEO I and 16 in CEO II; 48 samples were collected from the high-speed handpiece, ultrasonic equipment, and triple syringe in the areas of Periodontics, Endodontics, and Operative Dentistry; the samples were taken, sowed, incubated, counted and bacterial identification was performed with the respective informed consent. Results: Data revealed that 86.25% of samples indicated bacterial growth, with a moderate degree of contamination on average across all three specialty areas; 43.75% of the equipment presented medium contamination, 27.08% low contamination, and 14.58% high contamination. Sixty-nine colonies were observed; 27.6% corresponded to Gram-negative bacteria and 72.4% to Gram-positive bacteria; Gram-positive cocci in clusters were the most prevalent (44.9%). Conclusions: In closing, a moderate level of bacterial contamination was observed, with the Periodontics area and the triple syringe displaying the highest contamination, primarily with Gram-positive cocci clusters in all three areas.Ítem Acceso Abierto Contaminación microbiana de los guantes antes, durante y después del tratamiento endodóntico: Revisión Bibliográfica.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2023) Quinteros León, Vestal Geovanna; Sánchez Ordóñez , María José; 0350170270; .Abstract OBJECTIVE: To identify the microbial contamination of exam gloves before, during, and after endodontic treatment through a literature review. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A systematic search was conducted in virtual libraries such as PubMed, Redalyc, SciELO, Web of Science, Scopus, and Elsevier, using inclusion criteria, information in Spanish or English, from 2013 to 2023, related to exam glove contamination before, during, and after endodontic treatment. The studied variables were identifying microorganisms in endodontics and referencing bacterial identification techniques like PCR tests, cultures, and EM Maltditof. RESULTS: The chamber access stage has the highest contamination peak since it is when caries or radicular infection begins to be removed and mixed with produced aerosols, allowing their expansion and settling on the surface of gloves. More prevalent microorganisms such as Enterococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus aureus, and Streptococcus mutans were identified. According to the studies analyzed for this work, PCR tests were determined as the most commonly used microbiological identification techniques in endodontics. CONCLUSIONS: Microbial contamination exists in gloves during endodontic treatment, considering that they come into contact with used endodontic instruments that carry microorganisms due to the flora of the canal and its removal. After the review, it is determined that more contamination in the chamber opening is generated by this contact or by the presence of carious lesions and their bacterial load.Ítem Acceso Abierto Cuidados en cirugía oral frente a la pandemia de COVID-19(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2021) Rojas Palomeque, Jennyffer Verónica; Aguilar Maldonado, José David; 0302491626; .INTRODUCTION: At the end of 2019 the spread of a new virus aroused panic in the population worldwide, with health personnel being the most affected, within this group the most vulnerable are dentists and oral surgeons due to the nature of their profession; The objective of this work was to carry out a bibliographic review on the new norms and protocols that the dental surgeon should adopt in their consultation against COVID-19. INSTUMENTS AND METHODS OF DATA COLLECTION: A descriptive study was carried out, a bibliographic review through Scopus, Google Scholar, Scielo and The International Journal of Odontostomatology of journal articles, letters to the editor and web pages with reliable information, looking for new strategies and protocols of care for the care of oral surgeons in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic. FINDINGS: The bibliographic search took approximately one year, due to the little information that was initially available on this topic, applying the selection criteria, 44 articles were obtained that were divided into: origin and characteristics of SARS COV2, history of oral surgery and biosafety protocols in order to develop an adequate system for the care of oral surgeons against this virus. CONCLUSION: Due to the high risk of contamination, oral and maxillofacial surgeons have the obligation to adhere strictly to the biosafety protocols that the authorities have created to avoid possible infections.Ítem Acceso Abierto Niveles de IgG post vacunación SARS-CoV-2 Tipo ARN Vs. Vectores Víricos y vacunas inactivadas. Revisión Sistemática.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2023) Morocho Salinas, Karen del Cisne; Pérez Guaman, Jhandry Alexander; Calderón Alemán, Doris Eliana; 1104222581; 1900564947; .OBJECTIVE: To determine IgG levels post-SARS-CoV-2 vaccination with mRNA vaccines compared to viral vectors and inactivated vaccines. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This systematic review is based on the 2020 PRISMA statement guidelines. Articles were searched in PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases; CONSORT and STROBE scales were employed to assess the quality and bias of selected articles. RESULTS: After applying inclusion, exclusion, and selection criteria, 127,452 articles were obtained; 24 full-text articles were registered, 54% with low bias and 46% with medium bias. The variables considered included vaccine type, follow-up time, and post-vaccination IgG levels. The results showed that mRNA vaccines got a better immune response with higher antibodies than viral vector and inactivated vaccines. It was confirmed that the immune response increases with booster doses of the mRNA vaccine. CONCLUSIONS: IgG values after mRNA vaccination reached 9356 AU/ml three months after the first dose. For viral vector vaccines, a maximum value of 626 AU/mL was found four months after the first dose, and antibodies detected in the inactivated vaccine were 131 BAU/mL three months after the third dose.Ítem Acceso Abierto Prevalencia De Respiración Bucal Y Anomalías Dentomaxilares En Escolares De La Ciudad De Azogues.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2023) Arévalo Coronel, Karen Andrea; Urgilés Esquivel, Cristina Estefanía; 0301905311; .OBJECTIVE: To assess the prevalence of mouth breathing and associated dentofacial anomalies in schoolchildren in the City of Azogues. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The population comprised 235 children aged 6 to 12 from educational institutions in the city of Azogues urban area. A reference population of 600 children was considered. Using the OpenEpi program with 95% confidence, the sample size calculation resulted in 235 individuals. The sample was randomly selected. Inclusion criteria: Schoolchildren within the specified age range, regardless of gender, with characteristics associated with the habit of mouth breathing, whose parents approved the informed consent, and children who signed the informed assent. Exclusion criteria: Children with dentofacial malformations associated with syndromes and those wearing orthopedic or orthodontic appliances that hinder the visualization of the oral habit. RESULTS: A high prevalence of mouth breathing, 62%, and dentofacial anomalies, 97%, was determined. Regarding the percentage of mouth-breathing children with dentofacial anomalies, it was 62%. There was no statistical significance between these factors. This result was consistent when looking for a relationship between the variables dentofacial anomalies, mouth breathing, age, and gender. CONCLUSION: This study's prevalence of mouth breathing and dentofacial anomalies was high, primarily in the 6 to 12-year-old group. There was no statistical significance when relating the variables mouth breathing, dentofacial anomaly, age, and gender.
