Objective: The aim of the present study was to evaluate, comparatively, the periodontal response during orthodontic treatment performed with self-ligating and conventional brackets.Methods: Sixteen Caucasian individuals of both sexes, aged between 12 and 16 years old and in permanent dentition were selected. Eight individuals were treated with conventional brackets installed on the lower dental arch and self-ligating brackets on the upper arch. Another eight individuals received self-ligating brackets in the lower arch and conventional brackets in the upper arch. The subjects received material and instructions for oral hygiene. Visible plaque index (VPI), gingival bleeding index (GBI) and clinical attachment level (CAL) were evaluated just after installation of orthodontic appliances, and 30, 60 and 180 days later. Mann-Whitney test was used to compare differences between groups (self-ligating and conventional), twoway ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test was used to assess CAL at each site of each tooth. Significance level was set at 5%. Results: No significant changes were found with regard to the assessed parameters (VPI, GBI and CAL) in either one of the systems.Conclusion: No significant changes were found with regard to the periodontal response to orthodontic treatment for the variables assessed and between subjects receiving passive self-ligating and conventional brackets. All individuals had received oral hygiene instructions and had their periodontal conditions monitored.

Análise clínica da doença periodontal em pacientes diabéticos tipo 2 correlacionada com o nível de hemoglobina glicada e proteína C-reativa

Diabetes Mellitus is an endocrine disease that causes a large number of systemic disorders. It has been considered that diabetes may influence the installation and advancing of inflammatory periodontal disease, as seen with the wound healing difficulty, but is also influenced by periodontal disease, since the clinic course of periodontal disease may affect the glucose metabolism and diabetic control. So, the interrelationship between diabetes and periodontal disease has troubled the dental professionals. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical condition of periodontium in diabetic individuals type 2 and the necessity of periodontal treatment through Periodontal Screening Records (PSR), in conjunction with laboratorial analysis (HbA1c and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein-CRP). Of the 88 participants of the study, 5,69% had been presented free of disease; 36,36% had been presented with gingivitis and 57,95% had been presented with periodontitis. In the group of the not diabetic individuals, 51.06% had periodontitis, while 65.85% of the diabetic had presented the disease. The periodontal disease was presented more serious in the age group of 60-69 years (group not diabetic) and 70-79 years (group diabetic). All the diabetic had presented periodontal disease, and the score 3 (50,34%) was most prevalent In the group of the not diabetic individuals 89,36% had presented periodontal disease, and the score 2 (31,25%) was most prevalent.Although the high levels of C-reactive protein and the glycosylated hemoglobin, it did not have association with the gravity of the periodontal disease in the participants of the study.
